When a general heard Cai Mao's order, he hurriedly responded and left quickly.
Cai Hao turned around, placed his hands on the city wall, and looked down at the "coalition forces" approaching outside the city, his face full of yearning.
At this time, Liu Pan, who was sleeping in the commander's tent, also received a report that the Jiangxia and Jiangling coalition forces were coming here. Judging from their posture, it seemed that they had just finished a battle with Jiangdong's army and returned victoriously.
Liu Pan: "."
If the coalition forces successfully defeated the Jiangdong army, why were they in such a hurry to come back at this time?
Didn't he send an envoy to inform himself of the battle situation?
Although he was confused, Liu Pan still put on his armor, called his guards, and went forward.
As soon as I left the camp, I saw the "coalition forces" parked outside the camp!
The lieutenants of the army gathered at the edge of the camp to guard the outside.
However, there was no attack.
Liu Pance immediately stepped forward.
The lieutenants of the army said one after another: "It is indeed the coalition army!"
"The coalition forces should have returned after fighting Jiangdong."
"Looking at their posture, it felt like they were fighting a bloody battle."
It's not that Liu Pan didn't see the scene in front of him.
However, he still felt a little strange.
However, for a moment, he didn't think about where the blame lay.
At this moment, Huang Zhong and others also came forward.
Huang Zhongce immediately stepped forward and said to Liu Pan, "I feel something is wrong."
Liu Pan nodded and said, "I feel the same way."
After a pause, Liu Pan said: "In this case, Han Sheng, you lead a small team out and ask them what they are doing here. I will sit in the camp just in case."
Huang Zhong said: "Okay!"
After saying that, he called for a group of people to follow him, walked towards the entrance of the camp and said: "Open the gate of the camp!"
The soldiers responded and opened the camp gate together.
Huang Zhong is about to ride out.
The next moment, the "coalition forces" waiting outside the camp suddenly rushed up like a swarm!
At the head are hundreds of cavalry!
This scene was so sudden!
Liu Pan, Huang Zhong and others did not even come back to their senses.
Hundreds of cavalrymen have already crossed the gate of the camp and are charging in!
One of the generals at the front bent his bow and nocked an arrow, shot an arrow at Liu Pan, and roared: "Yuzhang Taishi Ci, the enemy general's head is in hand!"
Only then did Liu Pan react.
However, it's too late!
The feather arrow instantly dilated in his pupils and plunged straight into his right eye.
Liu Pan screamed and fell off his horse.
Liu Pan's tragic death made Huang Zhong and others react.
Huang Zhong was furious.
The coach was killed in front of his eyes!
Huang Zhong held a big sword, faced Tai Shici and killed him, saying: "Death!"
Taishi Ci killed Liu Pan with one arrow, threw away the arrow, and led his guards on horseback to rush into the depths of the enemy camp. He took off the short halberd he was carrying behind him, just like chopping melons and vegetables.
They didn't fight Huang Zhong at all.
After Taishi Ci and his personal guards rushed into the camp, hundreds of heavy armored soldiers armed to the teeth also poured in.
It's Gao Shun's trap!
As soon as the trapped camp rushed into the camp, they quickly occupied the entrance of the camp and attacked and killed on both sides.
Upon seeing this, other "coalition forces" outside the camp poured in like a tide.
On the city wall, Cai Mao originally looked happy.
At this moment, seeing that the "allied forces" had killed Liu Pan and even entered the camp, Liu Pan's army inside the camp was in chaos. Cai Mao's legs and feet went weak and he sat down on the ground.
Why is this happening?
Could this "coalition" have rebelled?
Or is it not Huang Zu's "alliance" at all?
Huang Zhong also blushed.
Seeing that he could not catch up with Tai Shici and others who had already entered the hinterland, Huang Zhong waved his sword and attacked the enemy troops pouring into the camp.
One knife at a time!
Just as he was killing four soldiers in a row, a cold light struck towards his head.
Huang Zhong raised his sword and knocked aside the incoming attack.
His face was full of anger and disbelief.
It turned out to be Wei Yan!
Wei Yan was a general placed in Jiangling by Liu Biao, the former Jingzhou Mu, and he was also one of the confidants of Xian Jingzhou Mu!
Huang Zhong attacked and roared, "Wei Yan, why did you betray him?"
Wei Yan rode his horse up to meet Huang Zhong, and he sneered: "A wise minister chooses a good master, Old General Huang. Now Jingzhou is no longer the Jingzhou of the past. My old master is dead. Now, I It’s General Jiangdong!”
Huang Zhong's eyes were bloodshot and he wanted to kill Wei Yan with a knife.
Sure enough, this is not the coalition.
But the Jiangdong army!
Jiangdong's army sneak attacked here, which meant that the coalition forces were completely finished.
Huang Zhong felt sad when he thought that Liu Pan had been shot.
Is today the day of his death?
At this moment, a spear came from the ground and hit Huang Zhong directly on the waist while he was distracted.
Huang Zhong groaned and fell off his horse.
However, he has experienced many battles after all.
The moment he fell from his horse, he rolled quickly on the spot, avoiding the attack of Wei Yan's sword behind him, and swept forward, killing the two soldiers who saw the opportunity to sneak attack.
The spear struck again, piercing his breastplate.
Huang Zhong's energy and blood surged, and he staggered back a few steps.
In front of him, he saw a young man holding a spear. He rushed towards him and said: "Old General Huang, I respect your character and don't want to kill you. Surrender quickly!"
It's Huo Jun!
Huang Zhong stood firm, stepped forward, slashed at Huo Jun with his knife, and roared: "Huo Jun, you are a descendant of the Huo family in vain. Your brother is ashamed of you!"
Wei Yan attacked from behind, and Huo Jun worked in tandem to attack Huang Zhong.
Although Huang Zhong's martial arts skills are obviously better.
But he is old after all.
Compared to Wei Yan and Huo Jun, both of whom were young generals and in their prime, Huang Zhong was forced into a panic by the two of them.
Just when Taishi Ci's army and Liu Pan's army were in a stalemate, countless firelights suddenly lit up outside the camp.
Outside Xiangyang City, the mountains and fields are densely packed with enemy troops!
The main army led by Chen Deng, Zhu Zhi, Cheng Pu and Heng Jie arrived as promised!
Chen Deng signaled the soldiers to beat the war drums.
With the war drums deafening, Cheng Pu and Zhu Zhi led the army to kill them first and rushed into the camp.
Liu Pan's army, which was originally in a stalemate with Taishi Ci's army, collapsed instantly.
Countless soldiers turned around and ran away.
More soldiers simply threw away their weapons and surrendered on the spot.
Cai Mao stood on the city wall, watching this scene, and spit out a mouthful of blood.
It’s over!
Completely finished!
With so many troops from Jiangdong attacking, Liu Pan's army could no longer be defended.
Without Liu Pan's army, Huang Zu's coalition army would definitely be gone too.
Today, Xiangyang City is an isolated city.
Even if Wen Pin comes, it will not help.
In Xiangyang City, countless people woke up from their sleep.
The overwhelming sound of killing made their livers and gall bladders burst.
Could it be that the enemy is about to enter the city?
Lu Yi, Zhuge Liang, Nangong Yan, Shi Huan, Lu Shisan and others who had been hiding in the basement also heard the noise.
However, they only heard the vibration of countless footsteps, but did not know what kind of battle it was.
Upon seeing this, Ma Zhong released the monkey from the basement exit.
A group of people waited nervously.
After a long time, the monkey came back and screamed at Ma Zhong.
Ma Zhong stroked the monkey's head and said to Lu Yi: "There's a fight outside the city. There are many people, all of them human."
Lu Yi's expression perked up.
All people?
In the past few days, they have also detected the enemy situation outside the city.
Xiangyang City was indeed besieged, but the scale was far less than that.
Could it be that Jiangdong's army is coming?
Estimate the time.
It's indeed time to arrive.
Seeing this, Nangong Yan said to Lu Yi: "You guys stay here and I'll go out and take a look."
Lu Yi hurriedly held his shoulders and said, "Be careful."
Nangong Yan smiled at Lu Yi and left quickly.
Outside the city, as Chen Deng led the main army to arrive, the battle situation instantly became one-sided.
Huang Zhong was besieged by Wei Yan and Huo Jun, unable to advance or retreat.
Huang Zhong's face turned ashen when he saw Jiangdong soldiers surrounding him from all sides.
Jingzhou, it’s over!
Now, I only have one chance to die!
Huang Zhong almost gave up his defense and attacked Huo Jun and Wei Yan with all his strength.
It's a death anyway.
Before you die, you must drag one of these two traitors to hell!
Wei Yan and Huo Jun were unwilling to commit murder, and were forced back by Huang Zhong.
Chen Deng, Heng Jie and others rushed over.
Seeing Huang Zhong's fighting style, Chen Deng called for soldiers to attack him.
Heng Jie hurriedly said: "Let me go to the camp! I recognize him. His name is Huang Zhong, and he is the general of Jingzhou Zhonglang. After Sun Jian died in the battle, he and Liu Pan held official positions in Changsha for a period of time, and they were quite fond of the people of Changsha. Friendly. And, loyal.”
Chen Deng nodded and asked Gao Shun to be found in the camp.
Gao Shun glanced at Huang Zhong and waved to the trapped camp beside him.
The twelve trapped camps immediately moved towards Huang Zhong to encircle him.
Gao Shun came behind Wei Yan with a broadsword in hand.
When Huang Zhong stabbed Wei Yan with a big knife, he met him with a knife.
The two swords clashed with each other, causing fire to fly out!
The strong rebound force made Huang Zhong and Gao Shun take a step back.
Huang Zhong secretly yelled something bad.
Several soldiers trapped in the camp pounced directly on him and knocked him to the ground while he was retreating.
Huang Zhong roared and tried to struggle.
However, the strength of these trapped soldiers was too strong, and he was firmly fixed to the ground, motionless.
Wei Yan and Huo Jun looked at each other and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads.
Chen Dengce came immediately and said with a smile: "Old general, do you accept it?"
Huang Zhong spat and cursed: "Kill if you want, it's just death! You want me, Huang Zhong, to surrender, you are wishful thinking!"
Hengjie looked at Chen Deng nervously.
Chen Deng wiped the saliva from his face and was not angry. Instead, he shook his head with a smile and said to several soldiers trapped in the camp: "Tie him up."
Several soldiers trapped in the camp took action and tied Huang Zhong Wuhuada up.
Chen Deng looked at Heng Jie and said, "Leave it to you, Boxu. It's up to you to decide whether to let him go or keep him."
Hengjie thanked him.
Chen Deng looked up at the wall of Xiangyang City in the distance and said with a smile: "Reorganize the army, install the Thunderbolt Chariot, and attack the city the day after tomorrow. We will not accept the surrender of the soldiers in the city!"
"Send soldiers to shout into the city."
"For the people in the city, after the city was destroyed, I, Jiang Dongqiu, did not commit any crime."
"Those who can behead the heads of the four major families, or open the door, will be rewarded with ten thousand gold, and can directly meet us, Marquis Wu!"
Everyone looked at Chen Deng blankly.
"In such a situation, is it not good to surrender without fighting?"
"Military advisor, what does this mean?"
"If we ask the city's defenders to surrender at this time, it might be possible."
