Cao Jun roared loudly and climbed up the wall along the ladder, as if shouting loudly could gain strength BUFF. But as soon as these Cao Jun soldiers poked their heads out, sharp weapons came towards them, and the soldiers who could not dodge were hit.

He was stabbed and fell down screaming, but those who escaped immediately used their weapons to fight back. Then two of Jiangdong's soldiers fell down, and Jiangdong's soldiers behind them screamed and rushed forward. The two sides were on the ladder.

Death is exchanged endlessly.

The first and second waves of Cao's soldiers had already retreated to repair.

The first two waves of Cao's soldiers suffered heavy casualties, especially the first wave of Cao's soldiers. Even with the powerful attack power of the catapults, it did not directly defeat the morale of Jiangdong's soldiers, and Jiangdong's soldiers occupied a favorable location, which made Cao's soldiers also

It paid a big price.

Xia Houjie moved forward and reached the formation of Cao's army closest to the city. He did not carry his own flag. After all, in this day and age, moving with a battle flag is almost equivalent to telling the opponent his position. Xia Houjie listened to the words on and off the city wall.

He yelled to kill and watched with a calm expression as the new troops entered the killing battlefield.

There are not many Jiangdong soldiers on the city wall.

This is pretty much what was expected.

Although the Jiangdong Army occupies a favorable geographical location, Ling County itself is not large. After withstanding the catapult attack, it also caused certain damage to the city walls and defense equipment. All of this caused Jiangdong Army defensive troubles, especially

It was Cao Jun himself who was more proficient in land warfare. In the process of fighting for the city wall, Jiangdong soldiers were constantly injured and killed.

The most critical thing is that Ling County lacks medium and large defense equipment and is unable to counterattack Cao Jun's siege equipment...

Originally, there was kerosene on the city wall of Jiangdong Army, which was intended to be used to burn vehicles and other equipment. However, the kerosene also became part of the previous fire and joyfully participated in a crazy dance, so there was not a drop left.

When the corpses were slowly piled up and down on the city wall, the first Cao Jun soldier finally gained a firm foothold on the city wall. Although he was quickly killed by the Jiangdong soldiers who followed, but as the follow-up soldiers

Cao Jun's soldiers rushed up to the city wall, and Jiangdong's soldiers couldn't bear it anymore.

A Cao Army soldier huddled behind the shield and withstood the thrusts of several spears from Jiangdong soldiers. Then a Cao Army spearman stood next to him. This spearman cooperated with the sword and shield hand to kill a Jiangdong soldier, and immediately opened the door.

Through a small gap, more soldiers of Cao's army appeared on the city wall and formed a small formation to attack. Jiangdong's soldiers could not resist. After several people were killed, they shouted, turned around and fled back.

Xiahoujie also took the opportunity to board the city wall, and led Cao's soldiers to advance a section, occupying a section of the wall, and then left some soldiers to control the bifurcation of the Wengcheng wall, while Xiahoujie led the subsequent Cao army to

Turn north and run directly down the corridor to the city. They must capture the city gate and let the army enter the city through the gate. This is the fastest way to invest troops, and it is also their most important combat goal at the moment.

At this time, there are still many burning fires in the city near the city wall, which should have been ignited by Cao Cao's kerosene bombs before. There are charred remains of houses near the city gate, and there is still some heat wave left in the air.

, there is diffuse black smoke everywhere, thick or light, constantly dancing around, like monsters floating in the air, either baring their teeth or claws, or showing a sneer.

A group of Jiangdong soldiers happened to run up from under the corridor and bumped into Xia Houjie and others.

Xia Houjie shouted loudly, shook out his spear, and assassinated the first Jiangdong soldier on the spot. Then Xia Houjie's guards also moved forward, using their swords and guns at the same time, and struck down. The first few Jiangdong soldiers were immediately knocked down.

The ground, screaming and rolling down the slope.

Jiangdong behind the corridor dodged the wounded soldiers on the ground, and the formation became chaotic. Xia Houjie took the opportunity to lead his soldiers to rush forward, and quickly defeated the chaotic Jiangdong soldiers. At the cost of a slight casualty of two people, he cleared them.

Jiangdong soldiers were replenished on the corridor.

The loss of the Wengcheng caused the Jiangdong soldiers to lose an important defensive support point. Cao Jun's archers also climbed up the city wall and shot at the Jiangdong soldiers in sight, which made the Jiangdong soldiers even more panicked and made the Jiangdong soldiers have to gather up.

Jiangdong's soldiers suffered more losses, and the Jiangdong soldiers who charged up alone were no match for Cao's army who had already formed a formation.

Under such circumstances, Jiangdong soldiers fled one after another.

Xia Houjie began to attack the Jiangdong soldiers who were on duty at the city gate. The archers of Cao's army who arrived later stood on the city wall to suppress the rushing Jiangdong soldiers. Even iron armor could not withstand the attack at such a close range.

With the armor-piercing heavy arrows, Jiangdong soldiers left a few corpses and retreated into the city. As more and more Cao troops followed, Xia Houjie did not take long to slaughter all the Jiangdong soldiers in the city gate cave.

, and then opened the city gate.

The soldiers of Cao's army who had been near the city gate cave swarmed in early. Cao's army in red and black uniforms rushed into Lingxian along Chengmen Street. The Jiangdong Army in this area had been shattered, and the scattered small groups did not dare to fight.

Cao Jun fought head-on and hid in the alleys beside the road.

Yin Li, who entered the city through the city gate, said hello to Xia Houjie and led a large group of soldiers to quickly advance towards the cross street intersection without any delay.

Unlike Xia Houjie, Yin Li was followed by a bodyguard, holding a small general's flag with the word "Yin" written on it, waving his teeth and claws on the flag.

Yin Li was in a good mood. He originally thought that he would become a death squad, the first wave of people to attack the city, and then be forced to fight to the death on the Lingxian city wall, but he did not expect that Xia Houjie would be the first to attack the city, and he only had to wait

After Xia Houjie broke through the city wall, he continued to advance into the city.

Yin Li even felt a little relieved about this arrangement.

Yin Li also knew what was going on with the Taishan Army. But even though he was clear, he could not think of any good solution. This time Chang Xi was killed, which can be regarded as a major problem exposed among the Taishan Army. Yin Li was afraid that he

Therefore, he was implicated, but now it seems that he is not.

Does the general still understand the truth and distinguish right from wrong...

"careful!"

Yin Li was a little distracted, but he ran into a group of Jiangdong soldiers head-on, and was almost stabbed in the chest by one of the Jiangdong soldiers. Fortunately, at the last moment, Yin Li turned his body sideways, and the gun head scratched the iron armor on his chest. A flash of fire!

Yin Li's heart tightened, and he focused all his attention on the battlefield. He swung his sword and chopped down the Jiangdong spearman to the ground. Then he opened another spear and chopped off the Jiangdong soldier's arm with one knife. , bright red blood and yellow-white bones splashed in the air.

"kill!"

Yin Li roared and charged forward with his men. Several Jiangdong soldiers were quickly hacked to death, but there were still Jiangdong soldiers coming up from behind, howling, and some were pinched from the alley, and there were even worse ones. When Yin Li's men approached the doors and windows of some houses along the street, they suddenly jumped out from inside, or stabbed out their swords and guns directly, causing Yin Li's men to also suffer casualties.

Yin Li was a little angry. These more than 40 Jiangdong soldiers caused nearly 20 casualties among his men, and these Jiangdong soldiers looked a little strange...

Normally, after the city is broken, the defenders will usually break up and escape, but these Jiangdong soldiers did not flee. This is one of the strange things. Another strange thing is that the combat effectiveness of these Jiangdong soldiers is actually Not high, just like second-class auxiliary soldiers stationed there.

A quarter of an hour later, Yin Li broke through the obstruction and rushed to the Ling County government office.

The door of the Ling County government office was closed tightly. There seemed to be someone inside, and there was some movement, but no head appeared on the wall of the government office.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Yin Li hesitated.

"what to do?"

"Can't get up?"

Yin Li looked back. He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a little panicked. But he was already standing here. Is it possible to go back?

Yin Li gritted his teeth and said, "Come on!"

Three or four of Yin Li's men approached the gate of the government office warily, and then pushed it tentatively, and the door suddenly opened!

Some figures were shaking in the government office, as if they had fled to the backyard.

Sometimes it's like this. If there weren't these figures, Yin Li's soldiers would be suspicious. After all, not knowing who the opponent is and what will happen is a kind of terror in itself. When he sees someone escaping, he immediately has the instinct to chase his prey. He was inspired, and he immediately shouted and rushed inside!

Yin Li could not help but be led by the soldiers and rushed into the government office...

But after taking a few steps, Yin Li noticed something was wrong.

The messy items around seemed at first glance to have been overturned and scattered on the ground by people who had escaped in a hurry, but now it seems that these messy items are mainly composed of slips, lacquer boxes, wooden frames, and rags, and these Things have the same property...

Combustible!

Yin Li's eyes flashed, then his nose twitched slightly, and then he smelled something that frightened him, "No! Get out! Get out!"

As if Yin Li's voice was an order, flames immediately appeared inside the government office. At the same time, rockets shot out from nowhere began to fall inside the government office. Suddenly, several fire heads were ignited, and in the blink of an eye, they were fired again.

The fire oil under these debris was ignited, and flames burst into the sky!

Everywhere you look is bright red!

……(;￢＿￢)……

Xia Houjie looked at the place in the distance ahead where flames suddenly shot up into the sky, sneered, and waved his arms, "Get out of Ling County! Send an order, everyone gets out of Ling County!"

If we drink some wine together, we become brothers?

Idiots are so easy to fool...

The fire in the city expanded very quickly, and then began to spread along the streets, and soon spread to various city gates. As for Xia Houjie, it may be because Cao Cao's kerosene bombs had ignited the burning objects before, and now

Instead, no flames came.

Xia Houjie remembered that Cao Cao had sent soldiers to explain matters...

When will the Cao family and the Xiahou family go out of their way to take care of outsiders?

Naturally, it comes when it comes in handy.

It's like the present moment.

Xia Houjie took a look at the streets littered with corpses. He didn't even care about whether Yin Li could escape from the fire. He just led his soldiers back, walked out of the city gate, and then went directly to report back to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao looked at Xia Houjie coldly, his expression obviously not very good, "There is a fire in the city?!"

"Yes." Xia Houjie didn't know when a bloody bandage appeared on his arm, and the blood was dripping down.

"You abandoned General Yin and retreated?" Cao Cao was furious.

Xia Houjie prostrated on the ground, "I have advised General Yin not to advance rashly and to proceed with caution, but General Yin did not listen..."

Did Xia Houjie tell Yin Li to be careful?

I must have said that.

But that was before entering the city.

Therefore, what Xia Houjie said now was not false.

"So..." Cao Cao's expression relaxed slightly, and then he snorted coldly, "Even if General Yin is greedy for power and rushes in, you should be responsible for taking care of him! Go to Ling County quickly to check and take care of him.
To be continued...
