Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Boom! ~Boom! ~Boom! ~

Under the setting sun, the sound of drums rose into the sky.

Stirring the fragile nerves of every defender, the drum beat was so powerful that it seemed as if the sky was dimmed when the drum beat sounded.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

Under the city, densely packed soldiers set up ladders, guarded by shields, and climbed crazily toward the top of the city.

Cao Jun on the top of the city barely withstood this wave of offensive after several waves of missiles.

Hua Xiong held the sword tightly in his hand, his eyebrows knitted together.

Miscalculated, Jia Xu really miscalculated!

At first, he thought it was Guan and Zhang who raised troops to attack on a whim.

But the moment Liu Bei's handsome flag fluttered under Yuzhang City, Hua Xiong knew that Liu Bei had really been forced to rebel by him.

Not only that, Yuzhang is now caught in a melee.

Due south, Guan and Zhang's 20,000 troops were stationed.

To the west is an army of 50,000 led by Liu Bei and Cai Mao.

On the hill to the north, Cao Ren and Cao Chun's five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry were stationed. The second general did not enter the city and had been wandering around the enemy's flank to harass them.

Since Liu Bei and Cai Mao joined the battle three days ago.

The bandit army outside Yuzhang City has reached 70,000 people, and they have been attacking the city day and night.

The losses of Cao's army in the city were increasing. From the initial twelve thousand, ten days later, the number dropped sharply to five thousand.

Even the elite tiger and leopard cavalry commanded by Cao Ren and Cao Chun could only serve as a harassment, with little actual strategic significance.

In front of an army of nearly 100,000 people, 5,000 elites were still too few.

Fortunately, the five thousand tigers and leopards were able to restrain Liu Bei's army, otherwise Yuzhang would have been lost long ago.

Hua Xiong now has a bit of a feeling of being unable to get off the tiger.

Originally, he was the prefect of Runan, with only the responsibility of guarding the territory and no power of conquest. Now he started a war because of his greed for merit. Regardless of whether he won or lost, it was inevitable that he would be held accountable after the war.

At least Hua Xiong didn't believe that old fox Jia Xu would really tell the truth for him.

Anyone who is familiar with Jia Xu knows that he is an old turtle who is most afraid of death.

"General, the bandits are attacking the city again!"

The intensive drum beat sounded again, and a tiger roar came from downstairs. Hua Xiong looked around and saw Zhang Fei holding a snake spear of eight feet in his mouth, holding a shield in one hand, and already ascending the ladder.

The dense arrow feathers hitting the shield could not slow down his climbing speed at all.

"Damn it!"

Hua Xiong cursed secretly, rushed over with his sword, pushed away the archers on both sides, raised his sword and slashed at the hook of the ladder hanging on the wall.

There was a clang.

Hua Xiong stepped back three steps, his arms numb from the shock. After a closer look, he discovered that there was a piece of fine iron under the bamboo tube of the ladder. By the time Hua Xiong tried to overthrow the ladder with the strength of his soldiers, it was already too late. Zhang Fei had reached the top of the city at this time.

Zhang Fei threw away his shield, took off his eight-foot-long snake spear and swung it with all his strength, killing the approaching Cao soldiers. He glared at Hua Xiong not far away with a pair of bull's eyes and shouted: "Hua Xiong, the dog thief, you dared to insult me ​​earlier." Brother, come and accept your fate!"

After saying that, he came over to fight like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

As the city was in chaos, more and more soldiers climbed onto the city.

Yuzhang, which had held firm for ten days, became shaky overnight.

"No, Zhang Fei ascends the city, and the south gate cannot be defended! Zihe, please quickly disperse Liu Bei's army outside the north gate with me, and lure Hua Xiong out of the city. I'm afraid Yuzhang cannot defend it."

"Zi Xiao thinks too highly of Zhang Fei. Don't forget, Hua Xiong is also a strong soldier and once served under Zi Qian. Zhang Fei may not be his opponent."

"You weren't around during the time to challenge Dong, so you don't know how good he is. Zhang Fei will not lose to Marquis Wen within eighty years. Hua Xiong is definitely no match for him. Stop talking nonsense and send troops quickly."

Cao Chun was also shocked.

In the 80th round, there was no win or loss against Lu Bu. He was a real tiger general.

"But if Yuzhang is lost, Runan will not be able to defend it with the few soldiers and horses we have!"

Cao Ren was also so angry that he scolded his mother, "What are you doing to provoke Liu Bei?"

"When things come to a close, what's the use of talking about this! It won't look good if he dies trapped in Yuzhang!"

Cao Chun nodded.

The two led the army to kill them and headed towards the north gate.

Outside the south gate, Liu Bei and Cai Mao stood side by side.

Hua Xiong and Cao Ren were not the only ones who were impatient. In fact, Liu Bei was even more impatient.

Xu Shu calculated that the time was today. Although Zhang Wu's reinforcements had not yet been seen, Liu Bei believed in Xu Shu's judgment.

If we can't win the Yuzhang today, I'm afraid the situation is over.

Otherwise, Liu Bei would not have allowed Zhang Fei to personally enter the city and seize the gate.

This is not the hardest part.

What Liu Bei is really worried about is Cai Mao.

Almost most of the 50,000 troops behind him are reinforcements from Jingzhou, so it is natural to fight with the wind. If Zhang Wu comes and Cai Mao wants to retreat, he will only have 20,000 troops under the command of General Guan and Zhang. If we fight again then, we will have no chance of winning.

"General, the situation is very good now. Order the attack. Yuzhang can be captured in one battle."

Cai Mao shook his head repeatedly: "No hurry, no hurry, just wait."

"What's the point of waiting! If we keep waiting, Cao Ren and Cao Chun will open a gap in the north gate!"

Cai Mao glanced at Liu Bei and said to himself: What he is waiting for is for Er Cao to open the gap and rescue Hua Xiong.

Cai Mao's calculation was clear. The reason why he urged Liu Biao to send troops was just to make Cao Cao angry and kill Liu Qi.

But deep down in his heart, Cai Mao really didn't dare to die to offend Cao Cao.

He is not blind, so he can naturally see that Cao Cao is the most ferocious tiger in the northern land. Even if he takes advantage of Cao Cao's troops in Xuzhou now, how can he not settle the score with him when Cao Cao comes to his senses?

Instead of kneeling down and begging for mercy when the time comes, it is better to leave some room now.

Hua Xiong was a powerful general under Cao Cao. If he died in his own hands by accident, how would he settle this messed up account?

On the top of the city, Zhang Fei killed dozens of Cao's troops and reached Hua Xiong:

"Hua Xiong! How can you hide behind a sergeant? If you have the guts, come and fight Grandpa for 300 rounds!"

Zhang Fei laughed wantonly and killed Cao's army with an iron spear. It was as fierce as a tiger descending from the mountain.

Seeing that his bravery was overwhelming, Hua Xiong did not dare to fight with him, so he had to retreat continuously.

"General, Liu Bei's army at the north gate has been dispersed by General Cao Ren. Let's break out to the north."

Hua Xiong said unwillingly: "If I lose my Yuzhang, how can the Prime Minister spare me?"

"General, the Yuzhang has been lost, why not keep it useful and avenge the brothers who died in the future!"

There were more and more Liu troops around. Hua Xiong charged for a while and looked up at the army below the city.

"That's it, that's all! Break out to the north!"
