After more than ten years of development, Beizhen Fusi has become almost pervasive. Even Xuchang, the capital of Wei State, cannot escape the clutches of Beizhen Fusi. Under the huge economic temptation of Jingguo, a large number of civil and military officials in high positions or important positions in Wei were bribed, causing the seemingly airtight news in Xuchang City to leak out.
Among the senior officials of the Wei State, those who accepted the most bribes were Jiang Gan and Jiang Ziyi, the generals of Dong Zhonglang and the governors of Yingchuan.
Jiang Qian was a famous scholar and debater in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He was known for his eloquence and outstanding ability. He was also regarded as a eloquent scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Zhang Xiu, who came from later generations, also knew this person quite well, so when attacking the interior of Xuchang, Jiang Gan became his number one target. I thought I could use money to defeat this guy who was fooled by Zhou Yu, but I didn't expect that this guy was more determined and not swayed by money.
Later, Beizhen Fusi also spent a huge price to break through Jiang Gan's defense line and successfully pulled him down.
When Xun Yu died, Jiang Gan was standing nearby. Before Xiahou Dun blocked the news, he sent the internal information out of the city and quickly presented the first-hand information in the city on Li Ru's desk.
Upon seeing the news of Xun Yu's death, Li Ru's first reaction was not joy, but confusion.
After all, Xun Yu is also a famous figure in the world. This time he fought with Xun Yu with great vigor and prepared for it. He also felt that Xun Yu was difficult to deal with during the fight. If it weren't for the powerful strength of Dajing in his hand, , I was afraid that it would be difficult to reach Xuchang City. I didn't expect that such a person would die so easily at this critical moment.
"I really didn't expect Xun Yu to die at this time." Pang De was also a little in disbelief, "But if he dies at this time, he is no longer a minister of the country. It is the last trace of dignity!"
Li Ru sighed: "It's pitiful that Wen Ruo bowed his heart and soul for the Wei Dynasty and worked so hard!"
Qin Zhen said happily: "Isn't this the best? With Xun Yu, the old fox, gone, no one will be able to compete with Prime Minister Li. In a few days, when the artillery for the team arrives, we can concentrate the artillery. Take the city of Xuchang in battle and destroy the state of Wei!"
Zhang Biao on the side was sitting upright. After their voices settled down, he said slowly and unhurriedly: "Xun Yu is a famous person today. It is a pity to pass away. He devoted himself to the Wei Dynasty and died for the country. He is an enemy worthy of our respect. We will wait for After conquering the city of Xuchang, I will pay tribute on behalf of my father. Teacher..." He looked at Li Ru, "...the military strategist said: Kindness does not control the army. Now is the time when Wei is weak, so we should concentrate our artillery fire to fight for the victory. Conquer it in the shortest possible time and relieve the pressure on the Emperor."
Li Ru stood up respectfully and bowed his waist: "Here!"
Zhang Biao looked at Pang De: "General Pang, how many days will it take for the artillery from other teams to be delivered?"
Pang De stood up and said respectfully: "Go back to the prince, Tan Ma will report this morning. The artillery will be delivered in two days."
"good!"
Zhang Biao nodded, "We have prepared early. After all the artillery arrives, we will concentrate all the artillery to attack the city. Xuchang is the last faith of the Wei State. If Xuchang is broken, the Wei State will be destroyed. Second brother and third brother!" "
Zhang Xiang and Zhang Ling quickly came out and clasped their hands. Their immature faces were a bit mature that they should not have at this age. After this period of fighting, they had grown a lot. They said solemnly and solemnly, "My brother is here!"
Zhang Biao: "I have appointed you as war supervisors for this battle. You will stand at the forefront of the war and urge the soldiers to conquer the enemy city. There must be no mistakes!"
Zhang Xiang and Zhang Ling were overjoyed: "Here!"
Since joining the war, they have never had the opportunity to be on the front line of the battlefield. They have been protected by the soldiers at the back and can only watch from a distance. Now that they finally have the opportunity to visit the battlefield in person, they instantly become excited and eager to try.
Li Ru opened his mouth to persuade, but saw that Zhang Xiang and Zhang Ling were in high spirits. It was not easy to pour cold water on them, so he said nothing. Fortunately, they were only war supervisors and protected by elite soldiers of the Jingqian Army, so they would not be in danger.
…
Two days later.
Xuchang City was surrounded by the Jing Army on all sides. Zhang Liao and Pang De's troops and horses were combined into one place. The original twelve artillery pieces of the fifth battle group plus the nine artillery pieces of the other three battle groups totaled twenty-one artillery pieces. Placed at the main west gate, Pang De and Zhang Liao's flags were raised high, fluttering in the wind, and the army was ready.
On top of Xuchang City.
Xiahou Dun's face was so cold that he could almost drip with water. The flesh on his dark face twitched as he stared at the twenty-one cannons lined up outside, emitting fearful light.
Xuchang City is now facing internal and external troubles, and he is really afraid that it will not be able to withstand a round of attacks from the Jing army.
Zhang Liao's three artillery pieces originally frightened him, but now there are twenty-one artillery pieces gathered under the city tower. Is this going to blow up Xuchang City?
"General!"
Xia Houchong went to the city and said, "The prime minister who is guarding the city has already made preparations. The strong men from every household have mobilized. As soon as the battle begins, they can climb to the top of the city to support!"
Xiahou Dun glanced at his son: "Chong'er, are you afraid of death?"
Xia Houchong said seriously: "Sacrifice your life for the country, die without regrets, and have no fear!"
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Xiahou Dun's mouth: "Okay! You are indeed my son, Xiahou Dun. Our Xiahou family was born as a member of the Wei Dynasty and died as a ghost of the Wei Dynasty. Protect our capital and fight to the death!"
Xia Houchong: "Here!"
"Boom! Boom...!"
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, a deafening sound of cannon fire rang out from below the city tower. For a moment, the earth seemed to be unable to withstand the huge energy and trembled. The clay rammed wall at the entrance of the city also trembled with the huge vibration.
The two people's eyes suddenly looked down.
Twenty-one artillery pieces were seen spraying tongues of flame, and amid the smoke and smoke, the shells shot out of the barrels as fast as lightning.
At this moment, both of them were shocked by the powerful artillery.
The sight of twenty-one artillery salvoes was indeed shocking and gorgeous. The heaven and earth were ringing at this moment. Their ears seemed to be filled with a swarm of bees chirping non-stop, and their brains fell into a brief blank.
Fortunately, Xiahou Dun reacted quickly enough. He shouted "avoid the artillery" and grabbed his son Xia Houchong's arm and rushed down the city. Below was a hole that had been dug long ago to guard against Jingjun's artillery.
The Wei army was called the "anti-gun cave" by this hole.
Under the fierce bombardment of artillery fire, many of the anti-gun caves could not withstand the huge shock and collapsed. Xiahou Dun squatted in the cave and watched the fine soil from the top dripping down. Shaking under gunfire.
outside world.
After three rounds of artillery fire, a huge gap was opened in the hard wall of Xuchang City. From the top of the city to the bottom of the city, the gap showed a trapezoid shape with a large upper opening and a smaller lower opening. The slope was also relatively steep, but this was enough compared to attacking the city. alright.
Zhang Liao and Pang Dedou saw the opportunity and ordered the army to attack the city quickly!
