Chapter 479 Reinforcement Arrives!
Compared with the pressure on Hu Sanniang and Xue Yue, Zhang Liao's pressure was unprecedented. He waved his halberd and hit a knife in Zu Mao's hand.
Zu Mao's weapon was a pair of knives. After being split by Zhang Liao, there was only one knife left.
He looked at Zhang Liao like a god of war in awe.
Zhang Liao's prestige has become so famous in Huainan that the four generals in Jiangdong are afraid of Zhang Liao.
None of the four Jiangdong generals can be compared with Zhang Liao, but Sun Jian and Sun Ce, the two lords of the four Jiangdong generals, have the ability to compete with Zhang Liao.
Zu Mao, who had only one knife left, fought Zhang Liao again, but was completely suppressed by Zhang Liao, and Zu Mao was about to be killed by Zhang Liao.
A burly figure climbed from the cloud ladder to the city. With his appearance, Zu Mao and the soldiers around Zu Mao suddenly had a high morale and high fighting spirit!
Their lord, Sun Jian, the tiger of Jiangdong, attacked the city himself!
Among the three camps of Wei, Shu and Wu, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian dared to fight in person.
But when it comes to the most fearless, it is Sun Jian and Sun Ce of the Sun family in Jiangdong. Both of them also died in battle because of their own risk.
The current Sun Jian avoided the enemies of Jingzhou, and he was alive and well, and his life was not in danger.
Zhang Liao had never competed with the Tiger of Jiangdong, and at this time he finally faced Sun Jian, facing great pressure.
His opponent is not only Sun Jian, but also Zu Mao, and other generals of Jiangdong faction who are still in the city.
"I didn't expect Hefei to have such a fierce general, let me meet him for a while!"
Sun Jian held the ancient ingot knife, which was an imperial-level weapon, with an invisible murderous aura permeating the air, and the icy blade seemed to be overflowing with cold air.
Sun Jian's aura was completely different from Zu Mao, who had just fought against Zhang Liao.
Only by becoming the enemy of the Tiger of Jiangdong can you feel the power of Sun Jian!
"Come to fight!"
Zhang Liao commanded a team of soldiers to attack Zu Mao and drive out the enemies of the city wall, while himself, dragging his halberd, met Sun Jian.
Both are fighters,
As a hero of the moment, the moves are wide open, the weapons collide, the steps are moved, the force is unloaded, and the water on the city wall splashes.
"This person can actually fight with the main bus, on a par!"
When Zu Mao saw Zhang Liao's strength against Sun Jian, he couldn't help being shocked by Zhang Liao's high force. He knew that Sun Jian had the bonus of an imperial weapon "Ancient Ding Dao". If there is no such an emperor-level weapon, then Sun Jian may be slightly inferior in force.
Zu Mao had no time to look around, because he was surrounded by soldiers, Zhang Liao realized Sun Jian's main attack direction, and gathered a large number of soldiers on this city wall.
"You are a fierce general, lead the soldiers of Hefei, and pledge allegiance to me, how about that?"
Sun Jian's wrist was sore while holding the knife, and Zhang Liao's strength was stronger than he imagined.
Zhang Liao didn't answer, and there was no need to answer.
Sun Jian blocked them one by one. Although it was a little difficult, he was not defeated.
His weapon is an imperial weapon.
Weapons have a high bonus to a general's personal combat power.
Guan Yu can attack and kill Yan Liang in front of thousands of troops, which has a lot to do with having the Red Rabbit Horse and the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.
Zhang Liao's halberd is just a king-level weapon.
Even so, Zhang Liao is still on the offensive!
"My lord, I'm here to help you!"
Ji Ling went to the city and found that the new lord Sun Jian was at war with Zhang Liao. In order to claim credit in front of Sun Jian, he came to help with a three-pointed and two-edged sword in both hands.
Ji Ling and Sun Jian were no longer able to resist Zhang Liao.
"I am willing to live and die with the lord!"
Zhang Liao's personal soldiers, the dismounted Bingzhou wolf rider, are willing to fight to the death for Zhang Liao!
They were all Bingzhou wolf riders who had been surrounded by the enemy before. Thanks to Zhang Liao, they rescued them, so I am grateful and share life and death!
"Brothers!"
Zhang Liao and a group of Bingzhou wolves ride against Ji Ling and Sun Jian!
The Bingzhou Langqi was a sixth-order light cavalry. A dozen light cavalrymen joined forces to block Ji Ling, Sun Jian and others on the narrow city wall, preventing them from using their force to open a breach in the city wall.
Although Ji Ling's force was not as strong as the two of them, the three-pointed and two-edged sword could kill the Bingzhou wolf rider, causing many Bingzhou wolf riders to die in battle.
Zhang Liao was annoyed, but was stopped by the Jiangdong tiger Sun Jian, unable to stop Ji Ling.
The two sides used the city wall as a battle line, and saw a saw, and the rain decreased slightly.
"I'll stop these soldiers!"
Zu Mao retrieved a knife shot by Zhang Liao, joined Sun Jian, Ji Ling and Zhang Liao in the battle, stopped the soldiers who attacked Ji Ling, and let Ji Ling free up the knife to deal with Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao again faced the siege of Sun Jian and Ji Ling at the same time.
Unless Zhang Liao can reproduce the momentum of Megatron Xiaoyaojin, he can defeat Ji Ling as soon as possible. Otherwise, Zhang Liao may need dozens of rounds to deal with Ji Ling in a head-on battle.
Coupled with Sun Jian, who was more powerful than Ji Ling, Zhang Liao was in a tough fight.
"The revenge of the day must be avenged!"
Ji Ling was defeated by Zhang Liao Yiji not long ago. Zhang Liao at that time should have received a special bonus, otherwise he would not be so powerful.
Ji Ling, who was so embarrassed, wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, one for revenge, and the other for meritorious service. The three-pointed, two-edged sword stabbed Zhang Liao and pierced Zhang Liao's armor!
This three-pointed, two-edged sword was actually a king-level weapon created by Yuan Shu for Ji Ling.
It is a pity that the current Yuan Shu has really become a dead bone in the mound.
Facing the pincer attack of two fierce generals, Zhang Liao fought for dozens of rounds and only took five steps back.
However, Zhang Liao's situation was not optimistic. Sun Jian was in charge of fighting Zhang Liao uprightly. The Gu Ding Dao opened and closed in Sun Jian's hands, cutting iron like mud.
Ji Ling was in charge of the sneak attack. The three-pointed, two-edged sword was like a poisonous snake, elusive, stabbing Zhang Liao from time to time.
Suddenly, an arrow shot at Ji Ling!
Ji Ling was a fierce general after all. He had a premonition that a dangerous aura was approaching, so the three-pointed two-edged sword blocked the incoming arrow!
The sharp blade slashed the arrow cluster, and the dark arrow was knocked into the air.
Ji Ling looked at the direction where the dark arrow was shot, and found a female general with foggy temples and clouds standing on an arrow tower, bending a bow and shooting arrows.
The arrow that attacked Ji Ling and supported Zhang Liao just now was shot by her.
Zhang Liao also noticed that the archer turned out to be Hu Sanniang.
Moreover, the target Hu Sanniang shot was not Zhang Liao, but Ji Ling, which made Zhang Liao puzzled.
Zhang Liao also didn't have time to think, because Sun Jian's ancient ingot knife slashed again, like a stormy sea, hitting the rocks!
Hu Sanniang shot another arrow at Ji Ling!
Because Ji Ling was distracted by Hu Sanniang's cold arrows, he was unable to attack Zhang Liao with all his strength, and Zhang Liao's pressure was reduced.
The overall situation of the battle was not good for the defenders.
The rain soaked the city walls, causing the city walls of Hefei to be soft, and at the same time, the power of the crossbow and bow and arrow was greatly reduced. Some of the rain-soaked arrows were unusable at all.
Xiao Li Guanghua Rong was shooting arrows at the wooden arrow tower under the city.
Dong Ping held a short spear in each hand. He was a general with two spears. Once he got to the city, he would immediately kill the Quartet. At least dozens of defenders were killed by his guns.
Dong Ping is one of the "Five Tiger Generals of the Water Margin", and he still has some force, with two spears swept away.
Sun Ce did not have the Overlord Spear yet, and the weapon he used was only a red ying spear. At the age of sixteen, he participated in the battle against Hefei.
This was the first time Sun Ce had fought against the Chutian forces, and Sun Ce was deeply impressed by the sturdy Hefei.
The current Sun Ce just wants to join forces with his father Sun Jian to break through this city as soon as possible!
Zhou Tai, as Sun Ce's bodyguard, was ordered by Sun Jian to protect Sun Ce, who had not yet reached the peak of his force.
Sun Jian believed that Sun Ce's peak force was higher than himself, but Sun Ce had not grown up yet, so he couldn't stop Zhang Liao's dozen rounds.
The battle of Hefei was extremely tragic, and Zhang Liao alone could not turn the tide.
A Han Dang has already held back Zang Ba and Sun Guan, and the generals in Zhang Liao's hands are not enough.
"Die! Hahaha!"
The double spear general Dong Ping was reckless, broke into the defenders, rampaged, ignoring the opponent's long spear formation, stabbed with double spears, killed two defenders in a row, and made the surrounding defenders greatly fearful and retreated again and again.
Song Jiang's subordinates lacked generals to command the troops and horses, and there were quite a few reckless generals. Dong Ping's ability was brought into play in this battle, and he just rushed to kill.
Dong Ping was not a good person in the Water Margin. He once killed another family and took his daughter as his wife, but he was one of the five tiger generals in Liangshan.
In Sun Jian's barracks, there was a young man of the same age as Sun Ce. He was handsome and looked up to attack Hefei.
Tong Que learned that Sun Jian was blocked under the city of Hefei, so he sent Zu Ti and Zhou Yu from Lujiang to help.
Zu Ti was a famous general in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, good at fighting to inspire morale and control the hearts of the people.
Needless to say, Zhou Yu naturally, Tong Que intends to let Zu Ti bring Zhou Yu to experience, so that Zhou Yu can grow up as soon as possible.
Song Jiang and Wu Yong, as the reserve team, stayed behind the camp together to prevent the camp from being breached.
Zu Ti saw that Sun Jian personally led his troops to attack Hefei, shouting loudly, and made a judgment: "According to this trend, after more than a month, Hefei will come down."
Zhou Yu nodded, but was a little worried: "General Zu, please send scouts to guard against reinforcements from Shouchun. Hefei was besieged for a long time, but Shouchun was indifferent. The only explanation is that the Shouchun defenders are temporarily unavailable. If I am Chu Zimou, and I will definitely dispatch one or two generals from the Hebei crusade to command the Shouchun defenders to rescue Hefei."
Zhou Yu's analysis not only moved Zu Ti, but also Wu Yong.
"Go and monitor the direction of Shouchun."
Zu Ti thought for a while and decided to send more scout cavalry towards Shouchun as Zhou Yu said.
There is a sequence of hearings, and there are specialties in the art industry.
Zu Ti is not a conceited person. When he thinks that Zhou Yu's proposal is reasonable, he will spare no effort to support it.
Wu Yong discovered that his cleverness may not necessarily have Zhou Yu's overall view.
Zhou Yu, who has grown to the top, will definitely be very scary.
In the direction of Hefei to Shouchun, a support army is marching!
Flying General Li Guang was at the height of his youth, his arms were like apes, and his riding skills were top notch. He couldn't wait to fight with Sun Jian, the tiger of Jiangdong.
Li Guang hasn't personally killed a general recently, and his hands are already itchy and unbearable.
His force has reached the level of the real five tigers. Once he joins the Hefei battlefield, it will subvert the entire battlefield.
The Invincible Legion's 5,000 cavalry, Li Guang's 2,000 cavalry, and the Shouchun defenders sent 10,000 infantry, a total of 17,000 cavalry, to come to support in the heavy rain, and the road was muddy, so that the cavalry could not exert their combat power.
"I still like the North."
Li Guang complained.
Li Guang's hidden background is a military general in Longxi, and he has been active in the north of the Huaihe River for a long time.
The Huainan swamps on rainy days were everywhere, and the power of the cavalry was greatly suppressed because of the terrain.
Not only that, because of the wet weather, the maintenance of the bow and arrow is a serious problem, and the power will also decrease.
At this time, the most useful is the infantry.
Li Guang, a general of both bow and cavalry, felt bitter.
Originally, his plan was to take the lead, shoot Sun Jian, the tiger of Jiangdong, and overtake Zhang Liao's limelight.
This is good, once in Huainan, it was raining for more than a month, and there were swamps and lakes everywhere, and it was difficult for the cavalry to launch a charge.
The light cavalry is okay, the heavy cavalry will be wiped out by the infantry when they encounter this disgusting weather again when they arrive in Huainan.
Mu Guiying, Yang Ye, and Yang Yanzhao also did not adapt to the water and soil in Huainan, but they came to help Huainan under the order of Chutian, and it was their duty.
When the 17,000 soldiers were about to arrive in Hefei, the rain subsided slightly, and the sky was still gloomy.
"An enemy scout is found ahead!"
The Invincible Legion and Shouchun reinforcements were discovered by the scouts sent by Zu Ti in the five miles north of Hefei City!
"Attack now!"
Mu Guiying made a decisive decision.
When the scouts of the other side are found, it means that the main force of the enemy will soon find themselves.
Therefore, Mu Guiying, Yang Ye, Li Guang and others urged the soldiers to pursue the other side's scouts and shorten the time difference!
"The enemy reinforcements have arrived!"
The scout cavalry quickly headed south and informed Zu Ti and Zhou Yu in advance.
Zu Ti immediately ordered: "Ming Jin withdraws his troops and orders the Governor of Changsha and other generals to give up attacking Hefei!"
Zu Ti knew that if the reinforcements from Hefei had arrived, if Sun Jian still attacked the city, he would most likely be attacked by reinforcements and defenders, and the entire army would be wiped out!
Zu Ti's main camp Ming Jin withdrew his troops, reminding Sun Jian and others who were still fighting fiercely with the defenders.
"Gong Jin, it seems that your judgment is good. The Shouchun defenders have been waiting for the arrival of the commander. Now they dare to come to Hefei to rescue Hefei, which shows that it is well prepared. I will personally command the infantry and attack it."
Zu Ti commanded the infantry to form an array to meet the reinforcements coming from Shouchun and buy time for Sun Jian to retreat.
Zu Ti himself was a famous general, and he commanded the formation of infantry who were good at fighting in Huainan, and was not afraid of the opponent's cavalry.
In the rainy days and swampy terrain of Huainan, the cavalry of the reinforcements could not launch a charge, and the threat became smaller.
Even the cavalry of the Invincible Legion had to dismount and fight on foot, turning into hand-to-hand infantry or archers...
Zhang Liao had already suffered several wounds and was panting like a cow. After Ji Ling was restrained by Hu Sanniang, Dong Ping charged with two spears and joined Sun Jian.
Sun Jian and Dong Ping were beyond the scope of Zhang Liao's force.
If it wasn't for the fact that the personal soldiers fought hard, perhaps Zhang Liao would have been severely wounded and beheaded at this time.
Suddenly, Sun Jian's expression changed slightly when he heard the sound of the big camp calling Jin Jin to withdraw his troops.
This time, he came out in full force, and it was only a matter of time to capture Hefei.
"retreat!"
Sun Jian heard the voice of Ming Jin withdrawing his troops again, and Zu Ti urged him urgently, indicating that the situation was indeed unfavorable.
