Chapter 683 Huddle in the City

"String the bow!"

The archer kneeling on one knee skillfully grabbed the arrow from the quiver behind his back and placed it on the bow string. There were nearly a thousand longbows scattered around Cao Jun's warriors. The sharp arrows seemed to be woven one by one. Created an airtight net.

Hundreds of Cao's troops all changed their expressions and looked at each other in confusion. If they were shot by so many archers, even an iron man would be pierced by thousands of arrows.

"Don't stop!" Xiahou Dun shouted sternly.

"Rush forward immediately and kill all these archers. If you stand still, you will wait to die!"

Xiahou Dun shouted loudly, and the soldiers of Cao's army woke up one after another, regained their morale, and quickened their pace and ran towards the front. For a moment, the distance between the two armies was only a few dozen steps, and the closest row of Cao's army and Liangzhou soldiers even Each other can clearly see each other's ferocious faces.

"Spearmen in formation!"

A calm voice of order came, and hundreds of Liangzhou soldiers with spears in their hands knelt down on one knee. A whole row of spears seemed to form a row of horse guns. At a glance, it looked like a forest of guns, which was quite shocking. , if you bump into it without caring about your buttocks, you will definitely be stabbed to the core.

"kill!"

Whoosh whoosh!

A round of arrows flew out, and the front row of soldiers fell to the ground. Each of them had seven or eight, or even more than ten arrows stuck in their bodies, making it difficult for them to survive.

Cao Jun's elite soldiers in the back row were already red-eyed. They stepped on the corpses of their comrades without hesitation, waved their weapons with ferocious expressions, and killed forward.

"Prepare-stab!"

"kill!"

Hundreds of spearmen of the Liangzhou Army who were waiting in full formation shouted loudly. Their usual rigorous training allowed them to hold back in the face of the approaching Cao army. They waited until the order was issued, then held the spears with both arms and used force. Pierce out.

Poof!

Dozens of Cao's soldiers screamed in agony as their bodies were pierced by spears. Xiahou Dun's only remaining eye was wide open, the five fingers of his right hand were clenched into a fist, and his bones creaked.

"put!"

"prick!"

Although the Liangzhou army went into battle in a hurry, the spearmen and archers cooperated effectively. The arrows shot and the spears thrust out were like the scythes of death, easily harvesting the lives of Cao Jun. In a short time, Cao Jun's casualties had exceeded One-third. Fortunately, these people are carefully selected warriors with fierce nature. If they had been replaced by ordinary Cao Jun, they would have been cowardly and left long ago.

"I am so angry!" Xiahou Dun was so angry that he drew his spear and leapt out to fight, intending to kill himself with his own bravery. After all, he was the one who proposed the night attack. How could he endure it now that there were so many casualties?

"General!"

Army Commander Ma Luzhao was startled and grabbed the reins to hold the horse back.

"Lu Zhao! Are you looking for death?" Xiahou Dun pointed the steel gun directly at the tip of Lu Zhao's nose, as if flames were about to erupt from his eyes.

"If the general wants to kill, then kill him. My lord can't live without Zhao, but he can't live without a general." Lu Zhao said seriously: "The general is entrusted by the lord to be responsible for the Yanxu war. If there is an accident, how will Lu explain it to the lord?"

Xiahou Dun lowered his point gun and looked at Lu Zhao with complicated eyes. Seeing Xiahou Dun's behavior, Lu Zhao hit the railway line while it was hot: "The soldiers are delaying the bloody battle for the general. Please leave quickly, general."

Xiahou Dun sighed: "Yu Jin is known as the number one general under Liu Ye. He has always been known for his strict defense. Today's dangerous move is really a trick."

"Order, withdraw the troops!"

After saying that, Xiahou Dun turned his horse and walked away, while Lu Zhao shouted: "My sons, retreat!"

Under the double alternating attacks of the spearmen and archers of the Liangzhou Army, more than half of the 500 Cao troops were killed and wounded. They had already fled before they heard Lu Zhao's order.

"I heard that Xiahou Dun is brave and reckless, and that's true."

Xu Shu smiled slightly and suggested to Jin: "In the east of Zhendong, you can order the soldiers to pursue you."

Yu Jin nodded, unsheathed his sword and said, "Pursue!"

The spearmen stood up, and despite the pursuit, the formation still did not panic. Instead, they pursued the enemy in a row, still maintaining their formation.

Naturally, I couldn't let go of this good opportunity to beat up the drowned dog. The Liangzhou soldiers in the camp roared angrily and charged towards Cao Jun. From time to time, Cao soldiers were chased by Liangzhou soldiers and then felled to the ground.

Xiahou Dun and Lu Zhao were at the back, but when they fled, the rear team changed to the front team, so they escaped the fastest. On the contrary, those brave men of Cao's army who dared to fight were killed one by one by Liangzhou soldiers.

"quick!"

Lu Zhao ran at the front on his horse, holding a torch in his hand. He did not dare to stop for a moment. He rushed under the city gate and shouted in a panic: "This is Lu Zhao, the commander of the army. General Xiahou is behind, hurry up." City gate!"

The gatekeeper of Cao Jun on the city tower looked out by the light of the fire and saw that it was Lu Zhao himself, so he hurriedly opened the city gate.

"quick!"

Lu Zhao sat on the horse and looked out anxiously. After a while, he saw a one-eyed general coming on horseback with a gun. However, he looked quite embarrassed. He was even hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and blood was flowing out. One place.

"General, come in quickly!"

Lu Zhao hurriedly protected Xiahou Dun into the city, and at the same time shouted to Cao Junmenhou: "Go to the doctor quickly and close the city gate."

The gatekeeper agreed, but there was a look of hesitation on his face: "But, Sima, there are brothers from our army outside the city."

"I'll shut you up if I ask you to, where's all the nonsense?"

Lu Zhao said sternly: "Is it possible that you want the enemy to come in, capture the city, and murder the general?"

"I don't dare because of my humble position." The gatekeeper panicked and apologized, then turned around and ordered the soldiers around him to close the gate.

The squeaking gate slowly closed, and the city gate was retracted. Cao Jun, who was fleeing in embarrassment, was so angry that he shouted loudly at the top of the city and even cursed.

"Why is the city gate closed? We are still outside!"

"Damn it, there are still pursuers behind us. Do you sons of bitches want to kill us?"

"Open the city gate quickly, or I will go back and kill you thieves!"

No matter how much they yelled and cursed, the city gate remained motionless. The gatekeeper stuck his head out from the city wall and said helplessly: "Brothers, it's not because I don't want to open the city gate, but because of the orders of the general and army commander. If you want to survive, please run away quickly."

Tap tap tap!

"Chase the enemy!"

There were rapid footsteps and shouts of killing, and the Liangzhou Army seemed to be behind them. The soldiers of Cao Cao under the city wall cursed, but they still had no choice but to escape into the wilderness.

"Beware of enemy attacks!"

Seeing the fire not far away and thousands of people swarming in, the gatekeeper hurriedly gave an order, and the guards at the top of the city stood ready.

However, the Liangzhou army under the city was chasing them here. They came in a hurry and did not bring any siege equipment. If they attacked by force, they would suffer heavy losses.
