Chapter 347: Using the Opponent’s Trick, Sun Jun Suddenly Becomes Stronger
If Sun Jian had a pair of eyes in the sky, he would definitely not launch an attack like this, because except for the soldiers lying on the crenels pretending to sleep, the other soldiers were already ready for battle. They hid behind the crenellations and waited quietly for Sun Jian. Once they enter the city, these archers will appear and shoot them into hedgehogs.
Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun stood on horseback on the main road, quietly waiting for Sun Jun to break into the city.
"Brother Zilong, thanks to your scouts, otherwise we would have fallen into Thief Sun's scheme."
Zhang Fei's originally dark face was perfectly hidden in the night. All the lights around him were extinguished, making it difficult to tell. If it weren't for the dark clouds under Zhang Fei's crotch, it would have been difficult for them to spot Zhang Fei even if he charged in front of Sun Jun's formation. .
"These scouts were selected not only because they were brave and good at fighting, but more importantly because each of them had some special abilities. For example, Ma San, lying on the ground, could roughly judge the enemy based on the tremors of the earth. The distance, quantity, etc., and Zhao Laoliu, he can find clean water sources in the wild, and can even tell whether the water is drinkable. He was the one who discovered the sweat medicine that Sun Thief put in the ditch this time. "
Zhao Yun said softly from the side. It was very late at night and there was silence all around. Apart from the conversation between Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, the only sound left was the sniffling of the war horses.
A scout on the side, the captain, scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"Hehe, it's just some acrobatics. Usually when you are out spying on information, these methods are indispensable."
"Hahaha, you are a good boy, neither arrogant nor impetuous. When this battle is over, I will personally tell my elder brother that I will give you a promotion. Everyone else will have a share as long as we win!"
Zhang Fei patted Zhao Laoliu beside him. Fortunately, he held back his strength and didn't use too much force. Otherwise, Zhao Laoliu would have been patted apart by Zhang Fei before he even went to the battlefield.
"Today's Chengde is where Sun Thief was destroyed."
Zhang Fei's teeth are tapping lightly, the moon is dark and the wind is high, killing people and setting fires!
Zhou Yu stood in front of the three armies, looking at the unusually quiet tower not far away. He didn't know why, but he was always worried in his heart.
"It's time to be ugly."
Lu Meng reminded Zhou Yu softly beside him, and then Zhou Yu came back to his senses in thinking.
"charge!"
As Zhou Yu gave the order to charge, Lu Meng rushed out immediately, his hands and forehead flashing with cold light in the dark night.
Thousands of cavalry, led by Lu Meng, rushed towards the city gate not far away. Zhou Yu watched the cavalry running forward from behind and couldn't help but feel worried. Until they rushed to the gate downstairs, there were no soldiers guarding the city. Zhou Yu felt relieved after receiving any reaction.
As Lu Meng swung his trident, the city gate, which was not too strong to begin with, fell to the ground with a roar, and then thousands of cavalry filed in.
Seeing that the cavalry had entered Chengde City, Zhou Yu only felt that something was wrong, but he could not tell what was wrong. He just frowned and carefully recalled all the details, wondering if he had missed anything.
Entering the city, Lu Meng and the cavalry slowed down. Lu Meng looked at the whole city that seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and his heart was full of pride. After all, this was his own plan, so that he could attack without spending a single soldier. Cheng De, at this moment Lu Meng seems to have seen the scene of his promotion and title after the war.
As Lu Meng and the cavalry turned into the main road, the adjutant on the side suddenly came forward.
"General, look over there. Are there two horses? They look like BMWs at first glance. Why don't you bring them for the general?"
"horse?"
Lu Meng then looked forward intently and saw that at the end of the main road, there were indeed two horses, one like jade and the other like black snow.
"Hahaha, you are still smart. When you go back, you can choose the top brothels in the entire Nan County. Even if you lose all three legs, I will pay for you, and there will be absolutely no fault."
"I would like to thank the general in advance."
The deputy general was very excited.
"Then go down and bring him over to the general, so that you won't be discovered by others later."
Looking at Lu Meng who nodded slightly, the deputy general led the three men and immediately rode forward. Lu Meng was still walking forward slowly. This is why he was the first to rush into the city. Not only for his military achievements, but also for the people in the city. Don't let him pick all the treasures first, and then donate all the rare treasures collected to Sun Jian. He is still worried about not being promoted. Now he is the prefect of Nanjun. Now that he has made such great achievements, he can go one step further. Then there is only the Grand Governor.
Lu Meng thought of the white-haired Zhou Yu again, and couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth. How could a defeated general who had failed many times step on his head?
Zhou Yu, who was outside the city, watched tens of thousands of infantrymen enter the city. He finally figured out what was wrong. There was such a loud noise when the city gate fell, how could the other party not react at all, even if they were all knocked down by the sweat medicine? This kind of noise should make you wake up in a daze, why is there no movement at all.
This also shows that the other party is most likely pretending, and they have no myrrh at all. Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Quick, quick, blow the retreat horn!"
Zhou Yu said to the people on the side. The soldier responsible for delivering the message looked confused. He had just entered the city, why did he blow the retreat horn?
"No, it's too late."
Zhou Yu immediately stood up and issued new orders to the messengers beside him.
"Everyone, rush into the city immediately, don't take it lightly!"
After saying that, Zhou Yu turned around and walked towards the rear camp. He had to report this matter to Sun Jian.
In the city, tens of thousands of troops had entered the city at this moment. Suddenly, the whole city lit up, countless lights were lit, and on the city wall, a full 20,000 archers poked their heads out from the city wall, bending their bows. Arrows are thrown outside or inside the city gate.
The lieutenant general who volunteered to lead Lu Meng's horse finally saw the two horses clearly after the lights in the whole city were lit up. Not only were there only two horses, but there was a black-faced man and a white-faced boy on the two horses. Behind him, there were thousands of cavalrymen.
Zhang Fei grinned and raised his Zhangba Snake Spear high.
"kill!"
Zhao Yun on the side also raised the gentian silver spear high and shouted lowly.
"kill!"
Five hundred scouts, one thousand six hundred Yanyun eighteen cavalry, and five thousand elite cavalry began to charge towards Lu Meng. Lu Meng had just met with the eight thousand cavalry behind him. This was the ten thousand cavalry he had brought with him in Nanjun. , it was his family's fortune, and he spent countless gold and silver treasures to raise 10,000 cavalry.
When he saw Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun charging in the distance, Lu Meng knew that he was finished. Even if he didn't die here and could get out alive, Sun Jian would definitely not let him go, so his only chance was to fight his way out. Come and make up for your mistakes.
The stunned lieutenant was still standing there, neither escaping nor charging. His head was beheaded by a spear from Zhang Fei, who was speeding past. The other three people also had their heads removed after Zhao Yun swept away the fallen leaves with an autumn wind.
The soldiers who rushed into the city saw that the other party was really asleep, so they all slacked off, and the shield soldiers no longer held their shields. This resulted in the first wave of shooting, and countless soldiers died in the arrows. Under the rain, facing the bows and arrows from all directions, the shield soldiers could only gather together and try their best to block them.
There were also infantrymen who were not afraid of death and fought on the tower. However, they were killed by the soldiers who had ambushed the tower early. They were turned upside down. For a while, Sun's army suffered heavy losses.
Seeing that the battle was already raging at the city gate not far away, Zhou Yu chose to continue charging instead of reporting to Sun Jian.
"Prepare the catapult and aim it at the top of the city tower. Don't let me miss it. If anyone misses it, he will be rewarded!"
Ten siege vehicles had been waiting outside the city for a long time. Following Zhou Yu's order, ten stones wrapped in pine oil, burning with flames, flew towards the city wall. The attacking archers on the wall had nowhere to hide. , penetrated by flying gravel, etc.
The attack of the catapults greatly alleviated the attack of the archers on the city wall, giving the infantry in the city room to breathe. They rushed out of the protection of the shield soldiers and charged towards the city tower.
The soldiers outside the city have also set up ladders at this moment, working together from inside to outside, to take down the city wall first, and then to encroach on Chengde.
Seeing that they could no longer use their bows and arrows, the archers on the city wall had no choice but to draw the swords from their backs, clear the battlefield for other robes who were able to use bows and arrows, and kill those soldiers who attacked the tower.
Under Zhou Yu's indomitable and terrifying all-attribute buff, Sun Jun's soldiers were now as fierce as tigers, and their combat effectiveness was comparable to that of Gu Rubing. A truly bloody battle began from the city tower.
On the main road of Chengde Army Town, the cavalry led by Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun had already killed one of Lu Meng's cavalry. Under their cover, five hundred scouts entered various parts of the city. They were not suitable for participating in a head-on confrontation, and were more suitable for fighting Covertly address some potential threats.
In the first collision, Lu Meng's 10,000 cavalry were sharply reduced by more than 3,000. Zhang Fei's men also lost a lot, a total of 1,500. This was because the combat effectiveness of Yanyun's eighteen cavalry was higher. , otherwise I’m afraid it would be a one-for-one exchange between the two parties.
"Why are these thieves so powerful?"
Zhang Fei clenched the spear in his hand, and was surprised in his heart. He had experienced Sun Thief's combat power before, not to mention half of it now, even one-third or one-fourth of it.
"Brother Yide, it's not advisable to be too eager to fight. Every one of Sun Thief's subordinates seems to have been beaten to death. Even if we kill all the 10,000 cavalrymen, we probably won't have too many people left. We must ensure that we have enough strength before we can wait until brother support.”
Zhao Yun pulled the horse's head and tried to dissuade Zhang Fei, who wanted to continue the collision. Zhang Fei thought for a moment and knew that Zhao Yun was right, so he nodded immediately.
"Brother Zilong, you are right, then what should we do next?"
Let Zhang Fei go into battle to kill the enemy. He might be slightly stronger than Zhao Yun, but compared with Zhao Yun in terms of strategy, Zhang Fei would be far behind. Zhao Yun frowned slightly. None of them thought why Sun Jun's combat effectiveness suddenly increased so much.
"Let's go to the city gate and find the infantry to kill and reduce the opponent's strength as much as possible. I have asked Zhao Laoliu to inform brother Junyi. If anything goes wrong, immediately rush out of Chengde and head towards Guangling. Retreat and join your brother!"
Zhao Yun shook off the blood on the spear.
"Brother Yide, let's charge in groups. You will be in charge of the city gate. I will go find your lieutenant and take over from him to lead the other 10,000 cavalry. We will kill as many as we can before the enemy cavalry reacts!"
"Hahaha, okay! I must kill a lot today!"
Zhang Fei turned his horse and led the remaining cavalry to the city gate. Zhao Yun turned his horse's head, raised the dragon gallbladder silver spear, and began to charge. One man against seven thousand, an unprecedented feat. Suddenly, behind him, a horse caught up with his footsteps. It was Zhang Fei who had just left.
"Brother Zilong, I can't leave you alone."
Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun faced a full seven thousand cavalry without any fear, only anger.
"Kill!"
When the two sides approached, Zhang Fei roared loudly, and a huge sound wave spread from Zhang Fei to the front. The hundreds of cavalry in the front were directly roared by Zhang Fei, bleeding from all seven orifices and fainted. Facing fainting during the cavalry charge was the same as death.
In addition to the hundreds of cavalry who were roared to death, the cavalry behind were also affected to varying degrees. Before they could react, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun rushed into the battle formation like two sharp knives.
Zhao Yun casually pulled out the sword hanging on his horse's belly, holding the sword in his left hand and the spear in his right hand, and they opened and closed them vigorously. Zhang Fei's single-handed 18 spears were even more powerful. Every strike had a wave of air, which lifted the nearby cavalry. The two of them killed from the front to the back of the formation.
At the rear of the cavalry, Lu Meng held the tiger-forehead halberd, held the reins tightly, and stared at the two people who were getting closer and closer to him. Just when they were about to kill him, Zhao Yun suddenly threw out the sword in his hand, and the dragon gallbladder bright silver spear in his right hand wrapped around the red tassel of the hilt, tied the sword to the spear head, and when swinging, not only the spear tip could kill people, but also the place where the sword passed by, blood flowed.
Nearly a hundred cavalrymen nearby were quickly cleared by Zhao Yun, and Zhang Fei rushed straight to Lu Meng, and the last spear of the single-handed 18 spears was swung out, and it hit Lu Meng's tiger-forehead halberd with a bang, and it was directly knocked Lu Meng flying out.
The troops can enjoy the indomitable bonus from Zhou Yu, but Lu Meng can't. He is still the same fighting power as before. He originally thought that the opponent was too weak, but now it seems that it is not. It's just that his subordinates have become stronger, but he has not become stronger.
He was hit by Zhang Fei's spear and flew out, and finally hit hard on a house. The huge impact made the wooden house sink into it. Lu Meng vomited blood and struggled to stand up, but he couldn't do it. He could only support his body and sit up with his back against the house.
After the spear, Zhang Fei had no nostalgia, and even had no idea of finishing the knife. He rode away. Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Lu Meng deeply felt Zhou Yu's previous frustration. Is the opponent still human? The two people killed each other in the 7,000 cavalry. The death toll was not 3,000 or 2,000, and this was only done by two people.
The figures of the two gradually dissipated in Lu Meng's eyes. Lu Meng's last consciousness stayed when one of his deputy generals came to support him, and then he completely lost consciousness.
