Chapter seven hundred and seventy-eight: Xiangyang changed hands
The south gate of Xiangyang City was captured by the Wuling Army, and Guan Hai led the soldiers of the Xuanwu Army to flock to Xiangyang City.
"Kuai family?"
"What are you going to do?"
A general from the Cai family shouted at the general of the Kuai family.
He wanted to lead troops to support the South Gate, but was blocked by these people here.
"What are you doing? I would like to advise you that if you want to survive, it is still too late to leave Xiangyang now." said the general of the Kuai family.
"You want to rebel?"
The Cai family was extremely shocked.
"You know too much, so you can't keep it! Soldiers, kill me!"
"kill!"
In the southern city area of Xiangyang, the soldiers of the Kuai family fought back and fought against the Jingzhou army. No one stopped the Xuanwu Legion at the city gate, and soon they completely occupied the southern city gate.
With the guidance of the Kuai family soldiers, the Xuanwu Legion rushed into the city and crushed the city center.
...
"General, the South City Gate is trapped! The Kuai family rebels!"
Cai Mao and Cao Ren finally got this unexpected news.
The Kuai family turned against each other and the southern city gate was broken!
"General Cao Ren, what should I do?"
Cai Mao was anxious.
"Isn't General Cai Mao aligned with the gentry in Jingzhou? How could this happen!"
Cao Ren was extremely angry!
If the Jingzhou Army uses his arrangement to defend, it will not be a problem for Xiangyang City to last for a year or two.
Now that there is an internal thief in Xiangyang, what can he do if Cao Ren is capable of?
"The south city gate has been broken, and Xiangyang cannot be defended. I hope General Cai Mao will make plans early."
After Cao Ren finished speaking, he got off the city tower. The Wuling Army had already entered the city, and it was time for him to return to Xudu.
"General Cao Ren..."
Cai Mao wanted to speak out, but Cao Ren's intention to leave was decided.
"You, go and take your lord and my family away."
Cai Mao ordered to a confidant.
Xiangyang City can be lost, but Liu Zong and Cai Mao’s family cannot have problems.
"Kuai Yue!!"
Cai Mao was so angry that he gritted his teeth. The Kuai family showed no sign of rebellion. It was because of this that he was not prepared.
"Go and kill all the Kuai family!"
After being put on a word, Cai Mao decided to take revenge and vent his anger. Since the Kuai family has rebelled from Xiangyang, there is no need to continue to exist.
Unfortunately, the soldiers sent by Cai Mao to the Kuai family failed to catch even a single person from the Kuai family. As early as when the Wuling army attacked the city, the Kuai family had already left the secret passage that had been prepared.
...
At the west gate of Xiangyang, the Wuling Army's offensive was extremely fierce. The soldiers were fearless and launched charges again and again on the city.
"Soldiers, General Guan Hai has led his troops to break through the southern city gate. Today, Xiangyang City will surely fall and kill!
Dongfang Qiang shouted, after the news that the South City Gate had been broken was made public, the morale of the soldiers became stronger, and on the contrary, the resistance of the Jingzhou army became weaker and weaker.
"Soldiers, follow me to break the city!"
Zhang Liao rode out and shouted, and the soldiers responded with a loud bang.
The infantrymen of the Vermilion Bird Legion participated in the battle!
Zhang Liao personally led his troops to fight, his momentum was terrifying, and the morale of the defenders further declined. The moment when the soldiers of the Suzaku Legion climbed onto the city, it marked the loss of the Western City Wall!
"The whole army attacked, attacked the city, and captured Liu Zong alive!"
Dongfangqiang finally issued an order to attack the entire army!
The three-sided city walls attacked by the Wuling Army have broken down two of them, and it is now time to end the battle.
The slogan of capturing Liu Zong alive was shouted, and many soldiers in Jingzhou were immediately scared.
Because at this time, all the Wuling Army were like crazy and caught them and slashing them randomly.
And Cao Jun, who had always been arrogant, had nowhere to be seen at this time...
Under the strong attack of the Wuling Army, the soldiers of Jingzhou collapsed. Apart from surrendering, they could only fight to death.
The impact of the Wuling Army completely chaotic Xiangyang City.
Some soldiers were panicked and confused, and even killed people in the city, robbing money and killing people.
They did all the evil they didn't dare to do before they were about to die.
Chaos was beneficial to the Wuling Army. Under the request of Dongfangqiang, soldiers were sweeping the participating defenders one by one.
The people of Jingzhou hid at home and shivered, but the Wuling Army did not break into the door unless they found that there were Jingzhou defenders hidden in the house.
The battle launched by the Wuling Army against Xiangyang is about to win!
...
At the east gate of Xiangyang, the Wuling Army has not yet been able to break through.
At this time, Cao Ren had led a large army here. Behind the city gate was the only 20,000 elite Cao troops he brought!
"General, please break through!" Yu Jin said.
"Wuling's army has three sieges and one siege. If the northern city is already filled with defeated troops in Jingzhou, it is a great opportunity for us to break through." Li Dian said.
"The whole army obeys the order, open the city gate, and break through!"
Cao Ren shouted loudly.
"kill!"
After the city gate opened, the Wuling army siege immediately rushed inside. When they saw this scene, they had no chance to withdraw!
"Kill out!" Cao Ren ordered.
The first group of Wuling Army soldiers who rushed into the city were tragic and were killed by 20,000 Cao troops in one encounter.
Yu Jin and Li Dian cooperated with Cao Ren and led their troops to break out. The Wuling Army was caught off guard and made the Cao army break out successfully.
The East Gate was just a feint attack, and Dongfangqiang did not arrange too many troops. Cao Ren broke through and did not choose the North Gate, but instead walked through the East Gate, which was also very lucky.
"Quickly report to General Dongfang, Cao's army breaks through the east gate!"
The person in charge of the feint attack on the east gate was a member of the Zhuque Legion. Seeing that Cao's army was about to leave, he was anxious.
"Soldiers, hold them back!"
If you have a head-on battle, there are few soldiers in Wuling, so you will definitely not be able to defeat these 20,000 Cao troops, but the bravery of the Wuling soldiers will hold back Cao Ren's tail.
Cao's army was determined to break through, but he didn't have much patience to get involved with the Wuling army!
If you can run, you will never take the battle!
If you really can't run away, you have to run desperately. Staying behind means your life will fight.
"Report to General, Cao Ren ran away from the east gate!"
A soldier came to report. After hearing this, Dongfang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief: "Let the soldiers of the East Gate try to hold the enemy as much as possible, and the cavalry will arrive immediately."
If Cao's army wants to break through, they will not have the fighting spirit to fight to the death. Then Dongfangqiang can take advantage of this and let Wei Yan send cavalry to consume it.
"Immediately notify General Wei Yan and divide half of his troops to pursue Cao's army!" Dongfang Qiang ordered.
To win, you have to win beauty. Cao Ren can run away, but Dongfang Qiang will not let him take all the Cao soldiers away.
...
"General, let's go!"
Seeing Cao Ren frequently looking back, Li Dian shouted.
"There are cavalry in the east, and we need someone to cut off the rear!" Cao Ren said.
To cut off the rear! Who will go?
Cao Jun is facing this problem now, and Cao Ren is very clear that Dongfang Qiang will not let him escape easily.
"General, the last general is willing to lead the troops to cut off the rear!" Yu Jin bowed.
"Okay, General Yu takes care of him!"
Cao Ren patted Yu Jin and was slightly moved! In this situation, Yu Jin took the initiative to ask for the rear of the army to show his loyalty to Cao Cao.
"General, you go quickly! The Wuling Army's cavalry is coming soon!"
Yu Jin reminded.
Chapter completed!
