Yuyang, lost!

This sudden bad news was like a bolt from the blue, instantly knocking Liu Biao to the sky and the earth, shaking his body, almost unstable.

"Father!" Liu Qi screamed in fear, and rushed forward to support Liu Biao.

Liu Biao was so shocked that he felt uneasy. He gasped heavily, and sweat beads drifted down his forehead. After gasping for a while, he finally suppressed his surging emotions.

"Didn't the Taoist thief raise troops to attack Qin? How could he suddenly enter my Great Chu?" Liu Biao, who was breathing, asked in surprise.

The scout said with a bitter face: "I don't know that the little ones don't know that 50,000 Wei troops suddenly appeared in the north of Yuyang City like divine weapons. Because the city has not been fully reinforced, General Wen has few troops, so he was forcibly bombarded the city gate by the enemy and killed him in."

Liu Biao was speechless and looked at Kuai Yue in panic, wanting to seek the explanation of the chief adviser.

Kuai Yue was stunned for a while, and a look of sudden enlightenment suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he said in surprise: "I understand. In fact, the Tao thief did not intend to attack Wei at all. His real target of invasion has always been our Great Chu. He advocated his attempt to attack Wei, but he wanted to lead his army to Nanyang in a noble manner, but suddenly rushed south and took Yuyang directly. We were hit by his plan to attack the east and west."

"So that's it. This pottery thief is indeed as treacherous as he was back then. It's hateful. I actually miscalculated..." Liu Biao, who suddenly realized, was shocked and angry, and regretted.

Just when Liu Biao was still regretting, another information was reported that Yan Shi Wenpin not only lost Yuyang, but also was injured by Yang Youji and Jian. Not only that, even the deputy general Wang Wei was actually killed by Tao Shang in person.

Liu Biao was so shocked that his body trembled violently. He was so angry that his face was pale and his cold sweat rolled straight on.

At this time, the eldest son Liu Qi calmed down first and bowed, "Father, don't worry too much. Although Yuyang is lost, we still have Xinye City. For the sake of the present, we should quickly raise our troops from Great Chu and rush to Xinye to rescue Wen Zhongye."

Kuai Yue nodded and said, "What the eldest son said is that Xinye City has been completely reinforced. I think with Wen Zhongye's ability, it is enough to defend our reinforcements. The Taoist thieves only brought 50,000 troops, which is equivalent to ours. At that time, as long as we stick to the city, he doesn't know how to do anything to us."

The words of the eldest son and the chief adviser finally made Liu Biao feel relieved, and he didn't even think too much, so he immediately adopted the advice of both of them.

On the same day, Liu Biao ordered all the troops from Xiangyang to cross the Han River to Xinye.

At the same time, Liu Biao sent people to Xinye again and told Wen Zhong that he would stay in Xinye for at least three days, and within three days his army would arrive.

...

Two days later, the north of Xinye Castle.

The morning breeze whistled, and the heaven and earth were filled with a strong murderous aura like undercurrents.

The pottery merchant rode his horse and carried his sword, running along the road southward. Behind him, 50,000 soldiers of the Great Wei camp and cavalry were also running hurriedly.

He is competing with Liu Biao for time.

After conquering Yuyang, the pottery merchant did not even have a moment of rest. On that day, he led his army to pursue him and headed straight to Xinye City.

He knew that Liu Biao had already received the news that he had gone south, and the reinforcements must have been on the way to Xinye at this moment.

He only led 50,000 troops in this battle, and did not have an advantage in military strength. If he could not take the lead in taking Xinye and let Liu Biao lead reinforcements to arrive, with the Xinye City defending and not fighting, he would quickly break the Chu State's strategic plan.

At sunrise, the pottery finally arrived at the north of Xinye City. Fifty thousand soldiers, with the fighting spirit of winning, approached the north of Xinye City in an array.

When the sky was bright, dozens of military formations of all sizes had been laid out and slowly approached Xinye City.

Under the royal flag of the Great Wei Dynasty, the pottery merchant stood on his horse and looked at the top of Xinye City from afar.

He could vaguely see how trembling and fearful the Chu army on the top of the city were all trembling.

Yuyang was broken, and Wen Pin's troops, with less than 1,000 troops, fled to Xinye City, and joined the two thousand garrisons in the city, barely gathered up 3,000 troops. It was with these three thousand troops that Wen Pin regained his fighting spirit and once again set out to defend the city to the death.

"Wen Pin, it seems that the battle in Yuyang City did not hurt you. If you insist on seeking death, I will fulfill you this time..." Looking at the big banner with the word "Wen" on the top of the city, the cold murderous intent ignited in the eyes of Tao Shangying.

"King, the three armies have already been arranged. Please order the siege of the city." Xiang Yu rode his horse and bowed.

Tao Shang nodded, Zhan Yang pointed at Xinye and said sternly: "So as it is, first use heavenly thunder to bombard the city and smash the enemy's courage."

"No!" Xiang Yu rode his horse and carried his gun and ran away in front of him.

Wang Ling passed down, and the Wei army formation slowly divided into gaps and made way for the road ahead. Hundreds of mules and horses dragged more than 500 thunder cannons and drove towards the formation in a mighty manner.

In a blink of an eye, five hundred powerful thunder cannons were arranged, and stone bullets were ready to be fired.

The 50,000 Wei soldiers immediately became excited, and all of them widened their eyes, waiting to appreciate the grand occasion of the enemy being ravaged again.

Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo-

The sound of the trumpet sounded between heaven and earth, like the sound of the summoning of the god of death.

Whoosh swish swish swish!

The five hundred thunder cannon was launched almost at the same time, and countless huge rocks rose into the sky, whistling towards the top of Xinye North Gate.

The sky was covered, and the earth was shaking under your feet, as if the heaven and earth were about to collapse.

Boom boom boom boom-

In an instant, the entire Xinye Beicheng line was covered with stone rain, and it was flooded into dust that soared into the sky.

The stone bullets were roaring, the gravel was flying, and the enemy soldiers were screaming. The enemy city was shrouded in dust, and they could not see any scenes, but the Wei soldiers who were watching the battle were all shocked.

The bombardment lasted for half an hour, and finally, the last stone bomb was fired.

The world returned to peace, and the dust gradually fell, and the front line of Xinye North Gate entered the vision of the Wei soldiers again. As expected, it was bombarded beyond recognition and was insulted.

However, the city wall only looked broken on the surface, but the main city wall did not collapse and still stood firm.

"Xinye City is indeed stronger than Yuyang. I want to see how strong you can be..."

Tao Shang's eagle eyes condensed, his arrogance ignited wildly, and he waved his sword and pointed hard at the enemy city, shouting: "Stop the artillery bombardment, the whole army will crush the Xinye City for me."

Bang bang bang!

The rumbling drums sounded as they rang out, and thousands of Wei troops rushed towards the city of Xinye like a tide.

In a blink of an eye, tens of thousands of Wei soldiers rushed to the front of the city.

The ladder is high in the trees, and the arrows are like rain. The front line of Xinye North Gate, hundreds of steps in the cotton, launched a fierce offensive and defensive battle.

This time, because the main city wall of Xinye did not crack and collapse, the difficulty of the Wei army in siege was much greater than that in the Battle of Yuyang.

Although Wen Pin was injured on his shoulder and could not fight with his sword himself, with his outstanding ability to command troops, relying on Xinye City's solid city defense and thousands of troops, he actually blocked the fierce attacks of the Wei army one after another. After more than an hour of fierce battle, the Chu banner on Xinye City was still unsuccessful.

Looking at the Chu army that was resisting tenaciously, Tao Shang's sword-brow was already flat and he thought to himself, "This Wenpin is indeed a tricky guy. If he doesn't get rid of this person, I'm afraid that when Liu Biao's reinforcements arrive, I will not be able to capture Xinye City."

On the top of the city, Wen Pinson was wearing a bandage, standing with a knife, directing the Chu army to fight to the death.

Seeing the attack of the Wei army outside the city gradually weakening, Wen Pin's face couldn't help but look proud and confident again, and he sneered: "Tao Thief, Yuyang City caught you off guard and took a little advantage. Today, this indestructible Xinye City, I think you are still arrogant."

Under his confidence and fierceness, Wen Pin thought he had defended the city and called on his soldiers to act bravely, and the morale of the Chu army was greatly boosted.

"King, this Xinye City is too strong, and my thunder cannon is useless. This literary recruitment is quite good. Judging from this situation, I am afraid that I will not be able to conquer Xinye today. It is better to withdraw the troops for the time being and think of other ways." Zhang Liang beside him calmly persuaded Tao Shang to withdraw his troops.

The Tao Shang was not a stubborn person. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, he would not be willing to use his will. He immediately ordered the entire army to withdraw his troops and forced the city to set foot in the north of Xinye City.

Dangdangdangdang-

The sound of gold sounded in the wilderness. Although the generals who were sieging the city were unwilling to accept it, they had to lead their troops to retreat slowly.

On the top of the city, Wen Pin looked down at the Wei army and retreated, and felt a sigh of anger, as if he had avenged the battle of Yuyang, and snorted coldly: "Tao Thief, I said it long ago that you must fail under Xinye City. I, Wen Pin, do what I say."

Along the city, the Chu army, thousands of times, saw the Wei army withdraw, were all very surprised and could hardly believe their eyes. After a while, they confirmed it without a doubt.

The soldiers of the Chu army suddenly burst out with excited cheers, insulting the Wei army retreating outside the city, showing their might.

Wen Pin couldn't help laughing proudly, and yelled: "Send a good news to the king quickly, so that he doesn't have to be anxious, just send troops to help calmly. With my Wen Pin in Xinye, he is as stable as Mount Tai."

The messenger of a cavalry quickly left the South Gate and rushed towards the South Gate with Wenpin's victory in retreating to the Wei army.

Outside Xinye City, the smug cheers of Chu army echoed for a long time.

"His grandma, I didn't expect that Wen Pin is a bitch, and she really has two tricks. Our 50,000 army can't even capture Xinye City even if we attack."

As soon as Fan Kuai returned to the camp, he threw his helmet on the ground and complained to Yang Youji: "I said, "I'm Yang, aren't you known as the one-eyed bow god? Why didn't you shoot that bastard from Wen to death that day?"

"What kind of bow god is it all the false reputation that everyone has given me. If I really have every arrow, then what else can the king want you to do? I can win the world alone." Yangyouji explained with a wry smile.

"Then if you can't shoot him with one arrow, can't you shoot him with another arrow? Maybe you'll shoot him to death." Fan Kuai muttered.

Yang Youji shook his head and sighed: "Martial arts reached the level of Wenpeng. Unless he was unprepared, even if he had a sharp shot like Li Guang and I, he would not have been able to shoot him to death. Moreover, he was hit by an arrow before, and he would definitely be alert. If he wanted to shoot him again, unless the Arrow Saint was resurrected, he might have a chance."

Arrow Saint!
