Chapter 190 Phoenix Nirvana

,,,,,,,,,,,,

Another huge impact sound was heard. A huge flat-bottomed city-climbing boat hit the water gate. Two siege ladders hung onto the city wall. Ling Cao held an iron spear in one hand and a shield in the other, jumped onto the siege ladder and climbed up quickly.

More than a dozen defenders intercepted and killed each other. A huge rock hit Ling Cao's head. Ling Cao raised his shield to greet him. With a loud bang, the huge rock was unloaded on the side. Ling Cao's spear stabbed out like lightning, piercing the chest of the stone-casting soldier. With a scream, the soldier was picked out.

Ling Cao stabbed five or six soldiers in a row. The defenders were so scared that they retreated one after another. Ling Cao jumped onto the top of the city and threw away the shield. The spear stabbed out like a storm. Ling Cao followed Sun Ce to fight, brave and good at fighting, and was promoted to the lieutenant with all his achievements. He was very skilled in martial arts.

Ling Cao made a military order in front of his lord and vowed to seize the northern city. More importantly, he only had one hour, and the huge pressure made Ling Cao kill him desperately.

In a moment, nearly twenty soldiers died under his iron spear. Behind him, a steady stream of Jiangdong soldiers climbed up the city.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Wang Tai was anxious and waved his gun and stabbed Ling Cao in front. When there was a loud bang, two iron guns collided in the air, and it seemed that Wang Tai had the upper hand.

Wang Tai was overjoyed and thrust his gun at Ling Cao's throat. At this moment, he suddenly felt a chill in his chest. Ling Cao's iron spear had pierced his chest at some point.

Wang Tai looked down at his chest incredibly. The severe pain made him scream in a shrill voice, his body soared into the air, and Wang Tai died tragically under Ling Cao's gun.

Ling Cao picked up Wang Tai's body in the air and shouted loudly: "The enemy general is dead, the enemy general is dead."

Wang Tai was killed, and his subordinates were shaken and retreated one after another. The morale of the Jiangdong soldiers was greatly boosted and they swarmed in the upper city. The defense of the Shuicheng Gate was finally broken by the Jiangdong army, and the situation took a sharp turn.

...........

Liao Hua was responsible for the defense of the eastern section of the North City, near the Shuicheng section. His defense area was also attacked by the Jiangdong Army in a crazy way. He led more than a thousand soldiers to fight back and kill Jiangdong soldiers again and again.

"General Liao"

A soldier rushed over and cried and reported: "General Wang Tai was killed and the Water Gate was lost."

Liao Hua's eyes suddenly widened. Wang Tai was killed and Wang Tai was sworn brothers. The news of Wang Tai's death made his eyes full of tears. After a while, he shouted, "Brothers from the First Battalion come with me."

He swung his sword to kill the water gate and ran for more than ten steps. Liao Hua finally calmed down. He stopped and turned to a soldier and said, "Go and report Sima quickly. Water City is lost and General Wang Tai is killed."

Liao Hua quickly judged the situation and turned to the deputy general Li Jun and said, "You lead the army to withstand the enemy's siege, and I will lead my brothers to guard the inner city ticket gate."

With a brief arrangement, Liao Hua led his soldiers to the inner city passage. Liao Hua calmed down completely. What he was considering now was not to avenge Wang Tai, but to make the worst plan, guard the ticket gate, and prevent the Jiangdong army from entering the inner city.

After a moment, Liu Jing, who received the news, led the five reinforcements to arrive in a hurry. Wang Tai's death also gave Liu Jing a heavy blow. Wang Tai was his most trusted confidant, even surpassing Liu Hu and Wei Yan.

But at this time, Liu Jing had no time to be sad. On the one hand, although many people around him died, he was numb to death, but on the other hand, the severe situation had forced him to ignore the grief.

In the darkness, Liu Jing couldn't see the direction of Water Gate, and he asked anxiously: "How is the situation?"

Li Jun shook his head, feeling very heavy, "I heard that the Water Gate has fallen, and thousands of enemy troops have killed the city, General Liao is leading the army to support it."

At this time, a soldier pointed at Caohe and shouted: "Sima, Jiangdong warship"

Liu Jing also saw it. If he could not see clearly the situation on the city, then he could see clearly the situation on the Caohe River. Large ships were sailing into the water gate and disappeared. It only means one thing: the water gate had been opened and the Jiangdong warships entered the urn city.

Sweat flowed down Liu Jing's forehead, the situation was dangerous, and the outer city could no longer be saved. Liu Jing made a quick decision and said to Li Junling: "You will immediately lead the army to destroy all the stone cannons and catapults, and then withdraw back to the inner city."

"Abide by the order"

Li Jun led several soldiers to run to both sides of the city. Liu Jing stared at the warship for a long time, but was helpless and had to issue an order to withdraw the army: "Transfer my order, give up the outer city, and the entire army retreated to the inner city."

As Ling Cao broke through the water gate of Chaisang City, more and more soldiers from Jiangdong rushed to the outer city of Chaisang from the water gate. The Jingzhou defenders were forced to evacuate to the inner city, and countless civilians rushed to escape into the city.

Not only that, as the water city gate opened, Jiangdong military ships began to sail into the urn city, and Chaisang City encountered an unprecedented crisis.

Outside the city, Sun Quan was overjoyed when he received the news. Ling Cao did not disappoint him and broke through the defense of the North City. Sun Quan immediately ordered: "The entire army enters the city, and those who surrender are exempted from death."

Lu Xun next to him had the experience of guarding Chaisang. He couldn't help but come forward and reminded: "Wu Hou, Chaisang and the inner city, there may be another fierce battle."

Sun Quan had learned about the structure of Chaisang City in advance, shook his head and smiled: "It will be difficult to defend against the inner city after breaking through the outer city, so why not?"

He then said to the general Pan Zhang: "General Pan can lead thousands of troops to detour through the Nancheng. If Liu Jing evacuates from Nancheng, he can capture him on the spot."

"The last one will follow the order"

Pan Zhang led his army to the south city, and Sun Quan ordered again, "The first one to enter the city of Chaisang and give a reward of ten thousand taels."

...........

Since Liu Jing seized the Chaisang City at night, he has also discovered some defense loopholes in Chaisang City. There is no problem in killing from the outer city to the inner city. There are two solid gates to defend, but the outer city can directly lead to the south city, and siege ladders can be set up on the east and west walls to enter the city at any time. This is undoubtedly a loophole in the city defense.

It was precisely because of his personal experience that after Liu Jing recaptured the Chaisang City, he built two coupon gates near the outer city, which contained the same pig iron gate, which weighed thousands of pounds. Despite this, there was still something that worried Liu Jing, that is, the east and west city walls.

The inner city was covered with four thousand Jingzhou soldiers. In addition to Liu Hu's heavy infantry, the Jingzhou army had already gone out. At this time, the gate of the outer city had opened, but the Jiangdong army could not flock in.

The arrows on the inner city were like raining. The dense rain of arrows from the Jingzhou army shot into the urn city, suppressing the Jiangdong army and unable to rush into the urn city to attack. Several Jiangdong warships that rushed into the urn city Caohe were also ignited by rockets, igniting a raging fire.

The outer city walls were also covered with Jiangdong soldiers. Since the stone cannons and stone catapults on the outer city walls were destroyed by the Jingzhou army when they retreated, the Jiangdong soldiers could not use long-range attack weapons and could only shoot arrows on the inner city walls with bows and arrows, so a net of arrows formed over the walls.

"Sima, I'm afraid there will be problems in the defense of the east and west city walls." Liao Hua said worriedly.

This is exactly what Liu Jing was worried about. There were originally several defenders on the east and west city walls. Although there were not many troops, the defenders in the north of the city could rush to support at any time.

But now, they can no longer go to support. Although there are coupon gates to prevent the Jiangdong army from attacking the east and west cities, if Jiangdong City directly uses the siege ladder to climb the city, they will easily enter the city.

This is the biggest loophole in the defense of Chaisang City at present, which made Liu Jing very worried. If a part of the army is withdrawn from the city to the east and west cities, Liu Jing is also worried that the defense forces in the inner city will be insufficient.

Just when Liu Jing was in a dilemma, an officer behind him shouted: "Sima, there is something wrong here."

Liu Jing quickly walked to the city wall and looked into the city. He saw dense crowds of people appearing on the streets in the city. Many of them were the civilians who had just withdrawn from the city. They were holding various weapons in their hands, which made Liu Jing stunned. What's going on.

"Sima"

Xu Shu ran to the city and shouted loudly: "The elders in the city are willing to help defend the city. There are more than 10,000 people, but they are in need."

In the fire, several men shouted: "We are willing to live and die with the Jingzhou army, and we are willing to serve Gong Jing."

"I wish to serve Gong Jing" tens of thousands of people shouted together, with a spectacular momentum.

Liu Jing was extremely moved. At the critical moment, the people of Chaisang were willing to live and die with him. What trust and affection was this?

Liu Jing's tears flowed over his cheeks. He raised his arms and fists and shouted: "Thank you everyone, thank you all the elders of Chaisang. Even if I, Liu Jing, fight to the last moment, will never abandon you. I am willing to live and die with Chaisang."

"Will be a public life and death" chants loudly, and the shouts resounded throughout the city of Chaisang.

Liu Jingran suddenly turned around and said to Liao Hua: "You can lead the six brothers and organize the people to strictly guard the east and west cities. Please help with the arrangements."

"The last one will follow the order"

Liao Hua happily received the order, and tens of thousands of people helped defend the city, so the hidden dangers of the east and west cities were resolved. He immediately led six soldiers to the city and organized the people to participate in defending the city with Xu Shu.

Seeing the dense crowd running towards the east and west cities, Liu Jing fell to the ground with his heart, and his eyes were fixed on the north city again, focusing all his energy on dealing with the enemy troops attacking the inner city.

...........

Pan Zhang led a thousand soldiers to rush outside the southern city. His mission was very clear. He was ambushed outside the southern city and intercepted Liu Jing's retreat. It should be said that this was a key chess in the Battle of Chaisang and was indispensable.

After a battle yesterday, Nancheng was already full of devastation. Under the cold moonlight, the city was filled with destroyed nest cars and ladders. The bodies of dead soldiers who had not had time to clean up were also everywhere, and the pools of blood were shocking.

About a few steps southwest of the city gate is a dense forest. This is the continuation of the forest in the west and the most favorable ambush. When Pan Zhang led a thousand soldiers to the edge of the woods, an accident happened at this time.

With a bang, arrows were fired in the woods at once, and dense arrows shot towards the running Jiangdong Army. The soldiers of Jiangdong were caught off guard and were shot down by a large area, with a wailing scream.

Pan Zhang rushed in the front, and his war horse was also shot by several cold arrows. The war horse neighed miserably and fell to the ground. Pan Zhang rolled to the ground and was pressed under the fallen war horses. The Jiangdong army was in chaos.

A dense sound of war drums sounded, and an army emerged from the woods, as a general, with white horses and silver armor, holding a spear in his hand, majestic, like a god descending to earth, it was Zhao Yun.

"Zhao Yun is waiting here for a long time"

Zhao Yun shouted loudly and rode his horse to kill him. The five soldiers behind him shouted and rushed towards the enemy. With the help of his personal soldiers, Pan Zhang pulled out of the war horse to the death. At this time, Zhao Yun had arrived. Pan Zhang roared and slashed at Zhao Yun. He had no war horse, and his martial arts were greatly reduced.

Zhao Yun swung his shot, pulled away his big axe, and stabbed Pan Zhang's throat with a backhand. The tip of the gun flashed, as fast as lightning. Poor Pan Zhang could not dodge, and was pierced by Zhao Yun's throat. He screamed and died under Zhao Yun's gun.

Zhao Yun pulled out his spear, shouted loudly, and rode his horse into the enemy. The spear was like a storm, invincible, killing the Jiangdong army into a river of blood.
