The soldiers were so excited by the sound of drums that they could no longer hold back. After hearing Liu Zhang's order, they roared and rushed towards the walls of Guangdu.
"kill!..."
The shouts of killing resounded throughout the world, and astonishing shouts of killing came from all three sides of Guangdu.
Countless soldiers began to swarm forward, and countless ladders were rapidly approaching the city wall.
Jia Zhan had never seen such a powerful army. He was so frightened that he froze in place. He didn't react until Liu Zhang's army attacked the city.
"Fire arrows! Don't let them get close!"
"Quick! Shoot the arrow!"
The soldiers guarding the city did not dare to hesitate, and quickly carried out military orders, trying to block the enemy's advance.
However, the disparity in military strength is too great. The east and west gates are equipped with 1,500 men respectively, and the north gate only has 2,000 men.
Scattered arrows shot in front of the dense Liu Zhang army, and it was difficult to form an effective obstruction.
Dang Dang Dang. . . . !
There was a sound, and in an instant, more than twenty ladders were set up on the north gate city wall.
Liu Zhang's soldiers moved too fast. As soon as the ladder was set up, soldiers were already climbing up, and at an extremely fast speed!
"Hurry up and shoot the arrow, fast!"
"You guys, push down the ladder quickly!"
"Where's the rolling log? Bring it over quickly and smash these thieves to death!"
"..."
Jia Zhan was giving crazy orders on the city, but he didn't realize at all that the more orders he gave, the more confused the soldiers would be, and the city would become more and more chaotic.
There were too few soldiers, most of them were still firing arrows under the battlements, and there was not much left to carry out other orders.
However, the arrows were still very powerful, especially when they aimed at the soldiers on the ladder, screams also spread among Liu Zhang's army.
At least hundreds of soldiers had climbed up the ladder, and all of them were shot to death without exception.
The deaths of hundreds of people did not stop Liu Zhang's army from advancing. The soldiers were still scrambling to climb up the ladder.
As time went on, the defense of the city defenders obviously began to weaken. The soldiers below the city had climbed up the city wall along the ladder and began to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.
Liu Zhang stood in front of the military formation, and what he saw in front of him did not make him feel much joy.
The casualties caused by the siege were so great that soldiers who fell from the ladder had almost no chance of survival.
It only took more than half an hour from the beginning of the siege to the time when the soldiers gradually climbed up the city wall, but Liu Zhang estimated that he had killed and injured at least a thousand people!
This is despite the fact that the walls of Guangdu are not high, the guards are insufficient, and the generals are stupid and the soldiers are frightened!
Liu Zhang surrounded the city on three sides and attacked together. The casualties of more than a thousand people at present were only the north gate of the massive attack.
Although the east gate and west gate have fewer soldiers, they can also attack fiercely under the leadership of Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, and the damage will not be too little.
The art of war goes like this: one can make great progress, then it will weaken, and three times it will be exhausted.
Now that the soldiers had climbed up the city wall, it was already a matter of time to capture Guangdu. Liu Zhang issued the order again.
"Beat the drums and march!"
Boom, boom, boom. . . !
This time it was a series of drums, which was even more exciting.
The second echelon of soldiers behind Liu Zhang did not hesitate and began to rush towards the city wall quickly, preparing to give the stubborn Guangdu a fatal blow.
A melee had begun on Guangdu City. At first, while Jia Zhan was killing Liu Zhang's army who had climbed up the city wall, he was also arranging soldiers to counterattack the soldiers attacking below the city.
But as the battle progressed, more and more soldiers of Liu Zhang's army gathered at the gate of the city. Jia Zhan could no longer care about so much. He could only deal with the enemies in front of him tiredly.
"Quickly, drive these enemy troops down!"
Jia Zhan struggled to kill the enemy in front of him and issued a roaring order.
Less than an hour after the war started, Guangdu City was about to be lost! How does he explain to his brother Jia Long?
"Soldiers, we must defend Guangdu!"
After Jia Zhan roared angrily, he immediately froze. He found that the city gate was full of Liu Zhang's soldiers, and his own soldiers could no longer be seen!
"Damn it, where are the people? Where have they gone!"
At this time, Jia Zhan's soldiers came over and took Jia Zhan directly and fled down the city.
"General, all our soldiers are dead, run away! It's too late!"
It turns out that Jia Zhan's soldiers did not escape, but were all killed!
"How can it be!"
Jia Zhan pushed the soldiers away, he couldn't escape! If he escapes, the entire city will collapse in an instant.
"General! Liu Zhang at least arranged for nearly 10,000 people to attack the city. We only have 2,000 people. How can we defend it? General, please follow me and leave quickly. If it is too late, it will be too late!"
The soldier's face was full of anxiety. He had just seen another group of soldiers rushing towards the city wall, and now they were climbing up the ladder!
"We still have three thousand soldiers from the east and west gates. Gather them together and fight against Liu Zhang, the traitor!"
"General, there are enemy troops attacking the east and west gates. Maybe they have been lost at this moment! General, please quickly follow us and escape from the south gate!"
The effect of surrounding three and missing one has come out. Now it gives them a way to survive, and their will to resist desperately will be reduced a lot.
"Where's Zhang Yi? Take him with you!"
"General, leave Zhang Yi alone. He might have died in the battle. Let's leave quickly!"
Regardless of whether Jia Zhan agreed or not, the soldiers frantically pulled Jia Zhan out.
Jia Zhan seemed to have understood the current situation, and without much resistance, he began to escape towards the south gate under the urging of his own soldiers.
Things went very smoothly, there was no chaos in the city, and Jia Zhan escaped to the south gate easily.
"Hey! If Guangdu is defeated again, Chengdu will be the only one left in Shu County..."
Hearing Jia Zhan's lament, the guards all lowered their heads.
These things are not something they can change, nor can they be reversed by holding Guangdu. Everything was already doomed when Zhang Lu was eliminated.
"General, let's go! Go back to Chengdu first and tell the prefect about the situation in Guangdu. Maybe there is a chance that everything can be reversed!"
It can only be said that the personal guard said this without conscience, and even he had doubts in his own eyes.
"Is there still a chance..."
Jia Zhan laughed miserably, and then he suddenly had an idea.
Perhaps when Jia Long decided to become Liu Zhang's enemy, this ending was already doomed.
I have to say that Jia Long really worked hard. He combined vertical and horizontal forces to integrate the power of Shu, Ba, Qianwei and Guanghan counties to force a decisive battle with Liu Zhang.
Jia Long once even went to danger personally, and he realized that he and Liu Zhang were both superior and inferior, and decided to decide life and death!
It's a pity that every time I come here in good spirits, I come back disappointed! Every time he was beaten, he threw away his helmet and armor and ran away in embarrassment!
"Let's go. Staying here will only be a waste of life. It's better to go back and live and die together with Chengdu!"
Jia Zhan has come to his senses, and Liu Zhang will never let go of their Jia family. In this case, Chengdu may be his last battlefield!
"We are willing to follow the general and fight together in Chengdu!"
A trace of relief finally appeared on Jia Zhan's face. It was a worthwhile life to have such loyal soldiers.
"Let's go! Let's go to Chengdu!"
Jia Zhan was about to move, but he froze in place instantly, and a mocking laugh came from his ears.
"Boy, where are you going?"
