Li Dian quickly climbed up the ladder. When his hands were already on the city wall, he suddenly heard an earth-shattering scream coming from above. He was frightened and hurriedly looked up. I saw a man tumbling down from the city wall.
When this person fell from his side, Li Dian's eyes narrowed and he trembled with fear.
"Li Quanzong!"
That's right, the person who fell from his side was Cao Jun's general Li Quanzong.
At the same time, several more Cao soldiers fell from the city wall, and screams kept ringing around Li Dian, making him shiver.
At first, he saw that Li Quanzong had climbed onto the city wall, so he came to attack the city with full confidence, and constantly promised that he would never go back if he did not capture the city wall.
He originally thought that Li Quanzong had already climbed the city wall, and as long as he opened an open space, he could successfully rush up with his soldiers, and then occupy the city wall and win this great achievement.
But they never expected that even the general Li Quanzong who climbed up the city wall fell off the city wall. You can imagine how fierce the battle above was.
Could it be that Lu Bu's son is on the city wall?
Just when Li Dian was sweating profusely and stunned, a Cao Jun soldier fell down from the ladder and hit Li Dian hard.
"ah!"
Li Dian was very scheming. When he saw soldiers falling down from the city wall, he knew that it was not good. Even if he rushed up, it would not help.
Since a soldier fell on him, then...!
"ah!"
The surrounding Cao soldiers only saw Li Dian standing on the ladder and was hit by a falling Cao soldier. The two men screamed and rolled down the ladder at the same time.
Li Dian knocked down several more people one after another, and then hit the soldiers under the ladder. Then he fell heavily to the ground. Although it was not serious, it still made him dizzy.
When he was on the ladder just now, he had already passed the surrounding terrain and was not high from the ground. Even if he fell, he would definitely not be in danger of his life.
What's more, when Li Dian fell, he kept knocking down the soldiers behind him. In this way, he could slow down, and when he finally landed on the ground, nothing serious would happen.
Li Dian fell to the ground and let out a painful scream, then closed his eyes and pretended to have fainted.
He had promised Cao Mengde that he would never go back if the city was not breached.
Therefore, he could only faint and be carried back by others, so that he could not lose face and prove his bravery.
Before joining Cao Jun's camp, Li Dian had already thought about these things in his family. He would do brave things on the surface, but he must not overdo it.
When the family members next to Li Dian saw the general passed out, they immediately shouted, "No, General Li was seriously injured and passed out. Let's carry him back and treat him quickly."
After finishing speaking, the children of the Li family immediately carried Li Dian and ran quickly towards the direction of the formation.
Li Dian was lucky enough to escape, and Li Quanzong on the other side was also lucky. Although he fell from a very high city wall, because there were Cao soldiers on the wall, he only knocked down a few Cao soldiers when he fell from it. The soldier suffered broken tendons and fractures, but he himself only broke one leg and passed out instantly.
When Li Quanzong's guards saw their general unconscious, they immediately carried him away from the battlefield and carried him back for treatment.
"Kill!"
"Ahhh!"
When Li Quanzong fell, the fire on the city wall was burning in the distance. Countless Cao soldiers were running around, and even some were lying on the ground rolling around, trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies.
But the flame ignited by kerosene cannot be extinguished so easily, otherwise it cannot be called a murderous weapon in the army.
The soldiers of Lu Bu's army took advantage of the chaos of Cao's army and immediately raised their spears. Regardless of the heat hitting their faces, they strode forward to assassinate him.
"kill!"
"kill!"
The remaining soldiers of Cao's army were in the fierce fire and had no intention of resisting. Seeing the enemy charging, they were frightened and fled in all directions. However, they died faster this way, and they were stabbed to the ground by Lu Bu's soldiers.
After Han Shi and others threw the kerosene, they also took out their weapons and joined the battle group. With the cooperation of everyone, they finally eliminated all the Cao soldiers who rushed up in a short time and regained control of the city wall.
When Chen Dao saw that there were no more Cao soldiers on the city wall, he yelled, "Listen, everyone, watch carefully. Don't let them charge up again."
When everyone heard this, they immediately shouted in response, "I obey my orders."
Chen Dao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the soldiers standing on the edge of the city wall again. He stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and secretly screamed in his heart that he was in danger.
Han Shi walked over from the side sweating profusely and said with a face full of joy, "General Chen, it's great that we finally defeated them."
Chen Dao patted Han Shi on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Thanks to you this time. If you hadn't thrown the kerosene in time, maybe they would have succeeded."
Han Shi hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "General Chen, my subordinates are just following orders."
"Kill!"
"Ahhh!"
The Cao army on this side was repelled, but there was not only one ladder on this side of the city wall, but on other ladders, Cao soldiers were also launching a fierce attack.
The soldiers of Lu Bu's army on the city wall kept throwing stones down the ladder. The soldiers of Cao's army screamed and fell from the ladder one after another.
But despite this, it still couldn't stop Cao Jun's soldiers from wanting to make meritorious deeds.
Of course, these Cao Jun soldiers also know very well that they can only move forward now, and absolutely cannot retreat.
Because behind them, there were countless Cao soldiers holding swords in their hands. They did not charge, but stood outside the range of the archers, staring closely at this side.
Yawenba
If anyone dared to retreat, these soldiers would swing their swords mercilessly and behead them on the spot.
In a fierce siege battle, if you want to retreat, there is only one way to die.
If we move forward, there may be a glimmer of hope. If we are lucky, we may make great achievements and receive a huge reward.
Therefore, under such circumstances, even if they knew that they would be knocked down by the enemy if they climbed up the ladder, Cao's soldiers still continued to attack without flinching.
Juye's city is relatively short, which makes the entire battle more intense.
Although the soldiers of Cao's army outside the city suffered heavy losses, the soldiers of Lu Bu's army defending the city also suffered heavy casualties.
Under the long-range attacks by Cao's archers, Lu Bu's soldiers guarding the city were constantly hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
