Lu Bu's halberd directly penetrated Cao Ren's body.
On the city wall, Guo Jia looked down at the scene and closed his eyes.
Lu Bu lifted up Cao Ren's body and roared excitedly.
At the city gate, countless defensive archers and infantry looked at this scene and fell to their knees.
It’s over!
There is no way to stop the enemy's attack!
Even generals like Cao Ren died tragically under the enemy's attack!
Zhang He, Gao Lan, Ma Chao and others saw that the archers and infantry defenders at the city gate gave up and surrendered, and did not attack directly again.
They quickly drove the defenders' archers and infantry out of the city gate, threw away their weapons, and retreated outside the city gate to clear the way in.
At this moment, two cavalry teams suddenly arrived from the east and west directions of the city.
Each cavalry team has tens of thousands of people.
As soon as they appeared, they rushed directly to the rear of the Jingzhou Army with lightning speed.
Guo Jia opened his eyes and looked at the two cavalrymen, outflanking the rear of the Jingzhou Army.
A flicker of hope lit up in his heart.
Among these two cavalry, Cao Chun led one of the two cavalry, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
The other branch is currently led by Xiahou Dun.
The two tiger and leopard cavalry commanded by Cao Chun and Xiahou Dun were adapted from the elite cavalry of the Guanzhong princes that Cao Cao had surrendered in the past year.
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry not only possess the bravery and proficiency of the Xiliang Cavalry, but also possess the well-trained training of the Central Plains soldiers, and can carry out orders and prohibitions!
Moreover, the person who leads them is a blood relative of Cao Cao.
For Cao Cao, they could give up their lives.
In previous battles with Ma Chao, Hubaoqi played an important role.
Even Ma Chao's Xiliang Iron Cavalry was unable to escape the attack of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Now, whether Zitong can hold back the Jingzhou Army, we can only see a little hope from the iron cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!
Zhang He, Gao Lan, Lu Bu, Ma Chao and others who were reaching the city gate turned back one after another.
Especially Ma Chao, his face turned pale when he saw Cao Chun leading the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
He hurriedly roared at Lu Bu: "The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry! This is Cao Cao's most elite cavalry, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry! Retreat quickly to rescue the commander in chief!"
Lu Bu saw Ma Chao's face was so ugly and knew that something was wrong. He hurriedly called his subordinates and their cavalry to quickly outflank the rear.
The rear area of Jingzhou Army.
Xu Shu looked at the cavalry coming from both sides and glanced at the three young men Pang Tong, Lu Xun and Zhuge Liang.
As expected, these three young men were quite discerning and judgmental.
No wonder King Wu asked them to follow him on the expedition this time.
Seeing the two cavalrymen rushing towards him, Xu Shu roared to the flag bearer behind him: "Fall into camp and attack!"
The flag bearer waved the flag vigorously and roared: "We are trapped in the camp and attack!"
At the outermost edge of the rear, the trapped soldiers who had been prepared for a long time saw the flags dancing and rushed towards both sides!
These trapped soldiers, from men to horses, were all wrapped in heavy armor.
In their hands, they all held long horseshoes.
In the heavy rain, they carried a huge force, as if they were in an uninhabited land, and directly killed the two cavalry who were outflanking them!
Even Cao Chun's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, faced with the impact of 500 heavily armored cavalry trapped on one side, fell on their backs and were unable to resist at all!
Lu Bu, Ma Chao and others, who were rushing back to help, all slowed down.
Especially Lu Bu, his eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
The trapped camp was led by Gao Shun.
As Gao Shun's former lord, he knew the horror of being trapped in the camp.
However, now, he discovered that the trapped camp adapted into heavy cavalry was ten times more terrifying than before!
If you don't set up an ambush in advance and confront directly, there will be no enemy of the heavy armored cavalry trapped in the camp!
Xu Huang and Cao Chun were also killed and stunned.
However, at this time, they also reached the rear of the trapped camp, in front of the Jingzhou Army's rear, and in front of countless shield soldiers.
They couldn't care less about the strength of the trapped camp.
Xu Huang and Cao Chun all commanded the cavalry to attack the shield soldiers.
When they were less than twenty steps away from the shield soldiers, the flags danced rapidly.
The shield soldiers and the spearmen behind them all fell to the ground.
There were hundreds of three-bow crossbows on each side, aiming at the oncoming cavalry.
Guo Jia's breathing suddenly became rapid.
The next moment, the arm was as thick as a spear, and the blade was as sharp as a feather arrow and shot out like a rain of arrows!
The cavalry that struck in front of the shield soldiers were penetrated by both men and horses and were knocked away!
Screams kept coming and going.
Blood dyed the sky red.
Flesh and blood is like rain!
Countless cavalrymen are like moths flying into the flame, never to return!
After the three-gong bed crossbowmen fired a wave, the Zhuge Company crossbowmen behind them quickly took up their positions.
Countless "kuakuo" sounds sounded.
From the small square box, ten feather arrows shot out instantly, directly covering the sky above the cavalry on both sides, forming a net of sharp blades, which hid under the hoods!
There were tens of thousands of cavalry on each side, and they all turned on their backs.
The war horses and cavalry were pierced one after another and turned into hedgehogs.
No more roaring.
There was no more neighing of war horses.
No more miserable wails.
Only blood gurgled out, gathering into streams, flowing under the torrential rain.
The entire battlefield seemed to be at a standstill at this moment.
Only the Thunderbolt Chariot continued to throw boulders at the city wall.
other people.
Guardsmen on the city wall.
The cavalry of Zhang He, Gao Lan, Lu Bu, and Ma Chao.
In the rear of the Jingzhou Army, there were Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong and other soldiers who had not yet been dispatched.
They all narrowed their eyes and looked at the densely packed corpses of horses and cavalry in the rear.
Xu Shu also closed his eyes.
He has experienced several battles and seen countless lives and deaths.
In the defense battle of Xuzhou, facing the armies of Yuan Tan and Yan Liang, he even lived and died with the soldiers.
But it was not as frightening as today.
That's right.
Even he himself felt frightened at this moment!
He even felt his soul trembling!
This isn't a fight at all.
This is massacre.
One-sided massacre!
Twenty thousand cavalry, under the coordinated attack of the Three-Gong Crossbow and the Zhuge Company Crossbowmen, were all killed before they could even rush out of the final distance of less than twenty steps!
Beside Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang's lips trembled slightly.
Jia Xu, who had always seemed to be asleep, couldn't help but let out a long sigh at this moment.
Sima Hui even closed his eyes and kept mumbling.
On the city wall, Guo Jia looked at this scene from a distance and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He had originally imagined that, perhaps relying on the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, he could chew off a piece of flesh from the Jingzhou Army and let them know that if they wanted to take Liang Kingdom, they would have to pay the price in blood!
But now, he discovered it.
Nowadays, the terror of Wu Kingdom has already surpassed what I have seen and heard.
On the city wall, other soldiers came to their senses one after another.
Seeing Guo Jia spurting out blood and about to fall straight down, these soldiers rushed forward one after another.
Xu Shu also came to his senses.
Taking a deep breath, his eyes moved away from the countless corpses on both sides and fell on the Zitong wall.
Xu Shu roared at the flag bearer behind him: "Stop the attack by the Thunderbolt Chariot!"
The flag bearer waved the flag quickly.
Thunderbolt cars stopped throwing boulders.
Xu Shu roared again: "The whole army attacks the city!"
The flag bearer waved the flag again.
In an instant, the entire battlefield erupted with killing sounds.
Behind the Pili chariot, Jingzhou legionnaires rushed towards the city wall like a tide carrying a siege ladder.
When they came to the city wall, they set up the siege ladder on the city wall.
The six vanguards, headed by Xu Sheng, Zhou Tai, Ling Tong, Zhou Fang, Zhu Ran and Wei Yan, roared in unison, like tigers descending the mountain, and rushed up quickly.
The city wall had already been destroyed to pieces by thunderbolt chariots.
The soldiers guarding the city had already been frightened into confusion.
A few soldiers came to their senses and rushed to the edge of the city wall, trying to resist the enemy troops from climbing up the wall.
However, their numbers are too few!
Soon, they were repelled by the attacking enemy troops.
Xu Sheng, Zhou Tai, Ling Tong, Zhu Ran, Zhou Fang, Wei Yan and others took the lead, jumped on the city wall, brandished their weapons, and rushed directly into the defenders without fear of death.
The flower of killing completely bloomed at this moment.
At the gate of the city wall, Zhang He, Gao Lan and other cavalry also drove the defenders' archers who gave up resistance to the outside of the city.
The cavalry rushed into the city like a tide!
On the other side of the moat, war drums sounded.
The Jingzhou Legion crossed the moat and rushed into the city like a tide.
The battle on the city walls ended quickly.
Xu Sheng kicked off the defender's flag on the city wall and placed a flag with "Wu" printed on it on the city wall.
At the rear of the Jingzhou Army, Xu Shu looked at the Wu-character flag swaying in the heavy rain and galloped towards the city first.
Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Lu Xun, Jia Xu, Sima Hui and others followed closely behind.
