Chapter 140: Defend the city

Not only did Liu Feng climb high and look into the distance, but after Huang Zu ordered the army to set up camp, he also rode dozens of steps and led the generals in the army to observe Xiakou.

"This city was built to guard against the Jiangbei Navy. It was only conducive to defending the navy and not to guard against the infantry. It was too easy to break through."

There was a general beside Huang Zu, looking at Xiakou City Road with disdain on his face.

The general is named Lei Guan. He is big and thick, with a fat face. He is arrogant and is the most powerful general of Jiangxia prefect Huang Zu. When Huang Zu built this Xiakou City, he was Huang Zu's general. Therefore, he knew very well about the weaknesses of this city.

"My purpose is not to break through the city, but to remove Liu Feng from all over to vent his hatred. Do you know?" Huang Zu did not praise Lei Guan as strong as usual, but instead said coldly.

These days, Huang Zu has grown a lot older. When he was sleeping at night, he often dreamed of the figure of his eldest son Huang She. He was extremely regretful. Why did he send his son to attack Liu Feng? Why didn’t he send the general Deng Long to the army?

Huang Zu wanted to lose all his money when he killed Liu Feng.

I am not in a good mood and of course I am too lazy to use it to win people's hearts.

Lei Guan's face turned red by Huang Zu's cold words, but he did not dare to vent his resentment on Huang Zu. Instead, he became resentful in his heart.

If this kid hadn't suddenly appeared, how could Huang Qiu die? How could he be scolded?

You, a little Liu Feng, is a blessing to be killed by our young master. If you don’t enjoy the blessing, you will be unlucky, which will lead to bad luck soon. It will lead to being dismantled from a big deal soon. It’s really hateful and pitiful.

Lei Guan thought for granted.

According to normal procedures, we should have set up camp first and then attacked the city tomorrow. But Huang Zu couldn't wait.

After watching for a while, he pulled out the long sword from his waist, roared towards Xiakou City, "After breaking the city, you will get a reward of one thousand for Liu Feng's head, and a reward of one hundred for the wreckage of the body. Siege the city."

After hearing this, Lei Guan trembled all over. It turned out that he had a fate of losing all his body. He knew very well that after Huang Zu's orders would definitely lead to soldiers rob Liu Feng's body, decompose and then decompose. Everyone had a part and took it back to Huang Zu to receive the reward.

It's vicious enough, and I hate Liu Feng deeply enough.

After a moment of silence in his heart, Lei Guan rode his horse out. Because he was the number one general, he usually headed on the front line.

On the city, Liu Feng saw a general wearing golden armor on the other side leading more than a thousand soldiers out of the battle. He couldn't help but put his hand on the hilt of the long sword at his waist.

After a moment of silence, a cold light suddenly flashed in Liu Feng's eyes and he shouted: "Beat the drum to shake the military power."

"Boom, boom." With Liu Feng's order, the city walls lined up in a row, and more than ten big drums made a deafening roar under the beating of more than twenty powerful soldiers.

At the same time, there were also bursts of drums from Huang Zu's army under the city. Amid the drums, Lei Guan led more than a thousand soldiers and launched a fierce attack on Xiakou City.

The soldiers were in a sack with soil in them. They were preparing to fill the moat in one fell swoop. Xiakou was a water village under Jiangxia. How could Huang Zu not know that this city was a water fortress and the moat was surrounded by the city?

When the army was assembled in Xiling County, these sacks were already ready. Thousands of bags were gone, and the river was filled.

Amid the sound of drumbeats, more than a thousand soldiers carried sacks and moved forward with their backs. At this time, the archers on the city had already fired arrows like money under the command of Zhang Gui.

"Swoosh swish swish swish." As the arrows were falling like rain, countless soldiers carrying sacks fell to the ground, either screaming or silenced.

But the soldiers still gritted their teeth and rushed forward, not daring to retreat at all. Because they knew that General Lei Guan was leading his personal soldiers to supervise the formation, and he would be killed without mercy if he retreated.

Rush forward and occupying the city is a way to survive. There is only a dead end to retreat.

In the approximately seventy or eighty steps of the road, almost one-fifth of the soldiers fell on the way. However, the remaining soldiers also arrived in front of the moat, threw down the sack in their hands and immediately spread their feet and fled back to the formation as the arrows were raining.

With three groups of people, Lei Guan paid hundreds of people to fill the moat.

After the last group of soldiers retreated, Lei Guan organized two thousand soldiers again, holding a ladder, a long sword, and a big sword in the ring. He prepared to attack the city.

"After breaking the city, those who get Liu Feng's head will be rewarded with a thousand gold. Those who get the corpse will be rewarded with a hundred gold. Kill." The formation was finally released, and Lei Guan pulled out the long sword from his waist and shouted.

"Kill, kill, kill." In response to a loud shout of killing, the soldiers rushed towards the city.

The eyes were full of blood, because they were old soldiers, and they knew that if they didn't enter, they would die. Only by breaking the city, breaking the city, can they get a way out and get rewards.

It is undeniable that Huang Zu's use of Liu Feng's body as a reward to a certain extent made the soldiers more excited and violent.

Faced with this murderous aura that was about to sweep the sky, Liu Feng was also moved.

This is the Jiangxia army. Even if it is broken, it was still an army that was able to compete with Sun Jian, the tiger in Jiangdong. After Sun Jian's death, it was even more competitive with Sun Ce and Sun Quan brothers.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse, and this sentence can be used in the Jiangxia army.

However, as the saying goes, one move will decline again and then be exhausted. Even a strong army will have a time to turn from strong to weak, let alone the already devastated Jiangxia army.

In this case, I'm afraid it will take four or five hours.

Liu Feng looked up at the sky. It was about four or five hours before it was dark, and that was also the time for Gan Ning to arrive. Before it was dark, he could break the Jiangxia army in one go and completely burn the beacon all over Jiangxia.

Own it.

"Stay." Liu Feng only said two words, but he was as stable as Mount Tai.

"No." Zhang Gui, who was ordered to command the city defense battle, raised his fist and said. After receiving the general order, Zhang Gui calmly crossed Liu Feng, stood at the forefront of the city, and commanded the war.

Like most of the generals under Liu Feng's tent, Zhang Gui became more and more calm due to Liu Feng's calm behavior.

Looking at Zhang Gui so calm, Liu Feng's eyes were filled with relief.

"Kill." The soldiers under the city burst into a shout of killing because they approached the city. Almost at the same time, the soldiers on the top of the city also burst into a shout of killing.

The two armies faced each other and the city was stained with blood.

At the water village in the north of the city, Zhang Gu led five hundred former water pirates to stare at the east. But his ears were tightly standing, listening to the situation in the south of the city.

At this moment, the hour was gradually approaching evening. After the war broke out, four hours had passed, and within these four hours, Zhang Gu heard the sound of drums eight times.

In other words, Huang Zu's army has attacked the city eight times. It will definitely be terrifying if it is said.

You should know that the army is also composed of people, which will be tired, tired and fearful. Generally, it will attack the city every one or two hours, five or six times a day.

After the emptiness in the city was revealed, then he would act together and launch a fierce attack. This is the right way.

Now Huang Zu launched a fierce attack as soon as he arrived, and twice in one hour. Zhang Gu dared to conclude that Huang Zu wanted to break through Xiakou in one day.

I wonder if the lord and the others could stand it? Zhang Gu had doubts in his heart. There was still about an hour and a half left before dark, which means that Huang Zu would launch at least three more fierce attacks.

Most of Liu Feng's army were surrendered. After only seven days of training, if you are too anxious, you may have a mutiny.

Just when Zhang Gu was full of heart, a small man shouted: "The boat is a boat."

Zhang Gu's face changed drastically. He looked eastward and saw countless ships moving against the surging river. On one of the towers, there was a big flag with a character "chang" dancing in the wind.

"The bow and arrow are lifted, and the sword is unsheathed." Zhang Gu shook for a moment and said in a deep voice.

Water battles, dealing with enemy ships. Bows and arrows are the mainstream.

With Zhang Gu's order, the soldiers in the water camp hanged their bows and arrows one by one, staring at the countless boats that were moving upstream.

On the deck of the ship with the big banner of "Chang", there were several men standing. Among the men was a middle-aged man with a majestic face. This man was the captain of the Sanjiangkou Navy.

"The prefect has his life and will attack the water camp with all his strength. The ordering boats are divided into two sides, suppressing the bows and arrows on the water camp, and sending a warship to attack the village gate." Seeing that Xiakou had arrived, Chang Wei ordered.

"No." The confidants all responded to their orders and went down to pass the order.

After the confidants went down to pass the order, Chang Wei looked up and looked at the water camp with a sneer. "My prefect led 12,000 troops to attack the city. How many people can you guard half of the water camp? Let's see if I defeat it in a battle."

"Beat the drum." At almost the same time, Zhang Gu and Chang Wei ordered the drum beat.

"Boom, boom." After the offensive and defensive battles in the south, the water camp in the north also rang out loud drums.

The soldiers on both sides flew arrows and blood stained the Yangtze River.

At this moment, it was the gap where Huang Zu took turns to attack. On the south side of the city, Liu Feng took Kou Shui to inspect the city. In this moment, the bodies and limbs on the city were carried away.

However, the blood and minced meat were difficult to remove. Every time Liu Feng took a step, he almost stepped on the bright red blood.

In the chaotic times, war will break out at all times. A man with ambition and goal cannot be defeated by the tragic situation in front of him.

Liu Feng's eyes were calm and he patrolled the city wall with great calmness.

Suddenly, Liu Feng paused and turned to look at the north. Has the navy come too? Liu Feng's heart was slightly solemn.

I wonder what happened to Gan Ning? Liu Feng thought for a moment and then started patrolling the city wall again.

Liu Feng had already handed over the mission of the water village in the north of the city to Gan Ning. What he had to do now was to try his best to resist Huang Zuling's offensive and wait for Huang Zu to make a concerted effort, and then decline and stop three times.

Defeat Huang Zu in one fell swoop.

Suddenly, another roar of drums came from Huang Zu's formation outside the city.

"Boom, boom."

"Welcome the enemy." Liu Feng made a big change and drew his sword and shouted.

God knows, does Huang Zu really want the lives of his soldiers? It is less than a quarter of an hour before the last attack on the city. He is about to make a comeback. I really want to break through Xiakou today?
