"Surprise the city first, attack the heart first; lure the snake out of its hole and annihilate the enemy."

Huo Jun stood on the top of the city and looked at the 50,000 elite troops below. Xinsheng could not help but admire him and said: "Wei Yan is indeed the general that General Wen has always respected. He is indeed a good general."

Xiang Lang said from the side: "General, don't let others gain prestige like this and destroy your own ambition."

"In a field battle, we are definitely no match for Wei Yan. Order all soldiers to prepare rolling wood, thunder and stones, and gray bottles to burn oil."

"Yes, General."

The sun was rising, and the morning mist slowly began to dissipate. The Wancheng Army, which had been silent all night, finally attacked.

There is one square formation for every thousand people in the center, with fifty lines in total. The center is infantry, and the two wings are cavalry. The uniforms of Wancheng soldiers are all mainly red, which is like a ball of fire and stands out from the black uniforms of Jingzhou soldiers.

comparison.

Wei Yan raised his sword, and a loud and urgent trumpet sounded.

"All officers and men lie down, all officers and men lie down."

But it was too late. The roaring arrows from the saw-toothed sky bow, the burning bottles and gunpowder pellets fired from the trebuchet, and the machine gun-like crossbows all shot towards the top of the city.

Although Huo Jun told everyone to get down, some soldiers still failed to escape the disaster.

The corpse was directly inserted on the city tower by a powerful crossbow, and then the thick smoke rising from the fierce battle filled the entire city. The "Huo" flag fluttering on the top of the city was in ruins, and seemed to be ready at any time.

They might fall down

, the dead bodies on the tower were strewn about, and blood flowed into rivers in an instant. The soldiers on the tower had no time to clean them up. The thick smell of blood and sweat were mixed with each other, filling the air, pungent and unpleasant, and the war had just begun.

.

The loud screams were heart-stirring, but they were quickly replaced by a powerful charge and horns from the Wancheng soldiers below the city.

The soldiers of Wancheng soldiers were all strong and strong, like the undulations of waves. They let out really shocking shouts. These shouts were passed on to each other and encouraged each other. As the first offensive echelon, the three advanced teams began to attack.

.

The tall arrow tower and the siege vehicle that reached the top of the city directly put the ladder on the top of the city. The soldiers below also began to push the siege gate hammer towards the city gate.

Arrows flew wildly in the air, and in bursts, the long bows dragged a beam of light across the sky that had just cleared, and all they could see were the falling soldiers on both sides.

The soldiers from Wancheng had just approached the head of Xiangyang City from the engineering vehicle. What greeted them were several spears thrust directly into their chests. Before blood spurted out from the corners of their mouths, they were carried off the ladder. Those who had unrealized ambitions

The warriors can only spray their blood in the air and on the homeland of other countries. Maybe they will shed a tear of unwillingness the moment the weapon leaves their hands...

But the Jingzhou soldiers also had to pay a huge price, because they risked being fired by the Wancheng soldiers' repeated crossbows from the arrow tower, and every time they came forward, they were accompanied by a hail of crossbows.

Huo Jun personally wielded his sword on the top of the city to kill the attacking Wancheng soldiers and horses.

He shouted: "Go to hell, get out, kill the whole army, and avenge my army that was martyred on Jingshan Mountain."

The desolate screams, crazy killings, and scorching beacon fires made the soldiers of both armies more and more anxious.

Xiang Lang found the red-eyed Huo Jun in the flames of war.

"General, it's not enough to just defend the city like this."

"What should we do?"

"General, I will lead a group of troops to kill them and cut off their communication. You deliberately let them attack the city, attract the main enemy force to the city wall, and then kill them all with a fire.

"good."

Now it's not just Huo Jun who is on top of the city tower who is anxious, but also Wei Yan. He is looking anxiously at the top of the city.

He didn't know why 3,000 people equipped with advanced weapons didn't even rush to the edge of Xiangyang City.

Wen Qiang said loudly at this time: "Look, general, our people have already rushed up."

Wei Yan looked in the direction of Wen Qiang's finger. It was true that soldiers had jumped off the city wall to fight with them, but it seemed that there were too many soldiers.

"Take three more thousand troops."

After giving the order, more than 3,000 elite troops rushed to the city wall.

Seeing the Wancheng soldiers who had rushed to the bottom of the tower, Huo Jun shouted: "Kill them down, go and prepare oil for me."

The Jingzhou soldiers instantly knocked down the soldiers who climbed up the tower, and then bows and arrows flew from the sky. The Wancheng soldiers once again raised their huge shields to meet the "locusts" in the sky.

These locusts were either stuck on the ladders or on the arrow towers, and then a wet substance began to be broken by the impact and scattered to these places...

Suddenly a soldier shouted loudly: "Oil, oil."

"Run quickly, run quickly..."

But in an instant, a second shower of arrows fell directly on the scattered oil.

The moment it "squirted", the fire started burning under the city wall, on the arrow tower, and on the ladder.

Fire is made stronger by the wind, and fire is made stronger by the wind.

The outside of Xiangyang city opened instantly, but it was indeed not opened with a door hammer, but Xiang Lang took the initiative to open the city gate. Then a group of cavalry came out, waving their swords, and those troops who could still escape were blown away by the wind.

Killed by the Jingzhou cavalry...

"Withdraw your troops."

Wei Yan announced helplessly.

"General, there are still more than 6,000 of us trapped there, are you just going to die without saving us?"

"General Wen, there is a fire ahead. The arrow towers and siege engines will collapse after they are burned out. We don't know how many troops will be killed by then, so retreat quickly."
