The sword gate was not meant to deal with enemy forces that might threaten the city as the captain had said before, but to teach Cao's soldiers a harsh lesson.

When the city gate is closed and the suspension bridge is pulled up, arrows are raining down on the city, and huge wooden boulders are coming towards the city gate. This can, to a large extent, prevent the enemy from attacking the Yizhou Army from the city gate.

possible.

After Taishi Ci saw the suspension bridge pulled up, he was determined and immediately walked down the city wall. The battle he was going to face next was equally important to the Yizhou Army. Among the surrendered Cao Army, Zhang Duo selected a thousand people, and he would also

as a participant in this war.

Taishi Ci even directly promised to surrender the soldiers of Cao Jun selected by Zhang Duo. After entering the army, they would enjoy the treatment of Jin soldiers. This situation made Cao Jun's soldiers extremely satisfied. The treatment of Jin soldiers is now in Cao Jun.

It is no longer a secret. Even ordinary soldiers in the army can receive military pay. This situation was unimaginable in the past, and this can also make the soldiers of Cao's army who have just surrendered feel a sense of belonging to the Jin army.

.

Ordinary soldiers also have their dreams. Serving as a soldier under Cao Cao and being in the Jin army have no impact on most soldiers. In Cao Cao's army, the levels are clearly divided. Ordinary generals, even

With talent, it is extremely difficult to go further, but in the Jin army, this situation will be greatly changed. As long as you have the ability, you will have a place in the army.

This is also what many soldiers need. They have just joined the Jin army. If they can make contributions during the battle, it will be of great help to their future status in the army. Such contributions are exactly what the soldiers in the army need.

Desirable.

However, this time Cao Jun's soldiers were targeted by their former soldiers. This also made Taishi Ci a little worried. If the war reaches a critical moment and Cao Jun's soldiers suddenly betray, it will bring a lot of trouble to Yizhou Army.

impact.

Thousands of Cao's troops were dispersed among the main army. In this way, even Cao's soldiers who had other ideas could only follow the Yizhou army to fight to the death.

Zhang Duo had no objection to Tai Shici's approach. Since he chose to join the Jin army, he had to consider the issue from the perspective of the Jin army.

"General, it's not good. The defenders suddenly closed the city gate. Our soldiers at the city gate were attacked by the defenders. The soldiers guarding the city gate even closed the sword gate." A general of Cao's army came on horseback.

shouted.

Cao Ren's complexion changed greatly when he heard this. From the strange behavior of the defenders, he saw something unusual.

"Young Zhang Duo, how dare you join the enemy army? Do you think you can stop my general's army with the defenders in the city?" Cao Ren snorted coldly.

After the generals heard Cao Ren's words, they could not calm down. Cao Jun had just experienced a defeat in Jiangling City and rushed from Jiangling City to Xiangyang just to get a chance to rest. Unexpectedly, Zhang Duo was so bold and defected to the Jin Kingdom.

After the army, he also planned to let the army enter the city.

"General, what should we do?" the deputy general asked.

"You lead the soldiers, break through the sword gate, and after opening the city gate, our soldiers can enter the city. In this case, Xiangyang City will still be in the hands of our army. When the time comes, I will definitely kill Zhang Duo and feed him to the dogs."

Cao Ren gritted his teeth and said, nothing could touch the army more than betrayal at this time.

Just after the order was issued, densely packed crossbow carts, crossbows and archers appeared in front of Cao's army. Even the city walls were filled with archers. From a distance, it gave people an unshakable feeling.

Cao Ren's expression changed again. There were only 3,000 defenders in Xiangyang City. Now there were so many enemy troops, and more of them were in the uniforms of the Jin army. Needless to say, before our own army arrived, the Jin army had already arrived.

Xiangyang was conquered and Zhang Duo surrendered.

If it weren't for Zhang Duo, Cao Ren would not have easily entered the city. Zhang Duo's family was in Xudu, and Zhang Duo was originally a general of the Jingzhou Army. There was no reason to join the Jin army, but in the Jin army

Cao Ren once again felt what it means to make the impossible possible.

"Fire the arrows!" Taishi Ci shouted, causing greater damage to Cao's army when Cao's army was not yet stable.

Dense arrows came towards Cao Jun's soldiers overwhelmingly.

After a round of arrow rain, the crossbow chariots still did not stop attacking, and Cao Jun's soldiers fell in large numbers under such a sudden attack. Thousands of Cao Jun's soldiers fell in this round of attack.

Go down.

The first one to bear the brunt was Cao Jun's Huben Army. After discovering the enemy's surprise attack, even if Cao Ren issued the order, it was difficult for the Huben Army to respond.

The key target of the Lian Nu Chao was the Huben troops among Cao Jun. After wiping out the Huben troops, Cao Jun lost its biggest support. In this way, no matter what efforts these Cao troops made in the city, they could not escape failure.

command.

After the archers released the soldiers in their hands, they set up their bows and arrows at extremely fast speeds. They wanted to cause greater damage to the enemy in the shortest possible time.

At this time, Cao Jun, who had just entered the city, was a living target.

After Cao Ren saw this scene, he gritted his teeth. The scene of his soldiers falling neatly was a great shock to the soldiers in the army.

"Charge to the north." Cao Ren ordered decisively. As long as the army can break through the enemy's siege and seize the city gate, it is relatively simple to fight out of the city. Judging from the layout of the city, it is clear that the enemy has already

Have enough precautions.

A famous Tiger and Ben army fell under the sharp edge of the Liennu chariot. The Tiger and Ben troops were the elite among Cao's troops. They had never encountered such a defeat. They thought that the Yizhou army launched a fierce attack, but before moving forward

In the process, more arrows hit the Tiger Army.

The armors equipped by the soldiers of the Huben Army greatly ensured their safety during the charge. However, the Huben Army was not invulnerable. When the number of arrows reached a certain level, it could still bring insecurity to the Huben Army.

Small damage.

However, in this confrontation, the Huben Army had no other choice. They could only rush into the enemy's army as quickly as possible and cause chaos to the enemy's army in order to avoid the army suffering more losses.

After Cao Jun experienced the first round of enemy arrows, although it was difficult to accept the result, he quickly responded. A Cao soldier raised his shield.
