The Three Kingdoms are at the gates.
Gu Zhenbei led his troops to guard the north gate.
Xiao Jingzhou personally led the team to guard the city at the East Gate.
According to the strategic deployment of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, Beiliang and Chibei led more than 300,000 troops to attack the north gate.
Mu Zhao led 50,000 troops of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to attack the east gate.
Gu Zhenbei stood on the city wall to give orders and make deployments.
All the people and craftsmen who were repairing the tower were evacuated from the tower.
There were Molotov cocktails and black arrows piled on the city walls.
Yang Jin was wearing a mask and surrounding a few earthen stoves at the foot of the city.
"Add a little more fire and boil the water, the effect will be better."
...
...
The soldier who was adding fuel to the fire smelled the wooden barrel beside him, and couldn't help feeling nauseous even with a mask on.
"General, the enemy has begun to attack the city."
Hearing this, Yang Jin hurriedly urged.
"Quick, quick, quick, one spoonful of manure water and half a bucket of hot water, mix them evenly and send them to the city gate."
"I'm going to give the enemy a good bath!"
On the city wall, Gu Zhenbei ordered his men to shoot arrows.
The arrows were covered with gold, piercing the enemy's armor and piercing their flesh.
Even if the enemy could escape back to the camp, without effective medicine, their wounds would only rot and fester, and would not heal for a long time until they died.
Thousands of arrows were fired at once, and even though the enemy was well prepared, there would always be some that were missed.
The arrows were not only soaked in gold, but also in kerosene. The flaming arrows flew into the sky and turned into dense black smoke that fell on the enemy and on the plains.
Gu Zhenbei gave the order, and Molotov cocktails, Gatling fireworks, and boiling golden juice were all used.
In this battle, the enemy seemed to be energized and rushed forward tirelessly.
Yang Jin climbed up the city wall and saw the enemy troops outside the city, who were as greedy as jackals hunting deer in the jungle.
"General Gu, how long can you hold on?"
Gu Zhenbei said in a deep voice: "Half an hour."
There were only 40,000 soldiers at the North Gate, and 10,000 of them were prisoners.
Yang Jin felt as if something was blocking his heart, and he hit the city wall hard, leaving sporadic flowers of blood.
Outside the city.
Xiahou Dun sat in the chariot, watching the scene in front of him.
He supported the sword with both hands, with a faint smile on his lips.
Pei Yi said: "General, in this battle, Dong Zhou has dispersed his forces, and the Da Jing army on the city wall is obviously unable to withstand our army.
Judging from the current situation, perhaps half of the Dajing Army is already at the East City Gate.
This battle will surely capture Zhiyi City in one fell swoop. ”
Tarsan rode on horseback and looked sideways at Pei Yi: "This deal with Dongzhou is really a good deal.
Three thousand captives were exchanged for five thousand troops from the Eastern Kingdom, and the three kingdoms worked together to attack Dajing.
If we can cooperate for a long time, the three kingdoms will be able to divide the Great Jing Dynasty in the near future! ”
Hearing this, Xiahou Dun raised his eyebrows.
He had been thinking about this idea for a long time, but he didn't expect that Talsan had the same idea as him.
For the first time, he looked at Talsan with a new eye, and a sense of caution arose in his heart.
Talsan is like a young lion who wants to fight for the position of the lion king.
"What's going on?"
"Who is that?"
“It’s actually the Dajing Army!”
Pei Yi's eyes widened in shock, and his voice unconsciously became louder.
Xiahou Dun's attention was quickly attracted by his voice.
The Dajing army came from the east and dispersed the 300,000-strong army with lightning speed.
Xiao Jingzhou galloped on the battlefield, leading the cavalry, holding a Molotov cocktail in his hand, lighting it and throwing it at the enemy.
The horses under the cavalry all have earplugs so they can't hear anything, so there is no need to worry about the horses getting startled.
The Molotov cocktail exploded and the flames continued to burn.
The enemy soldiers were covered in sparks, which quickly spread throughout their bodies due to the dry weather and the ground.
The enemy, caught in the fire, didn't care about anything else and rolled on the ground in panic.
The infantry behind the cavalry quickly joined the battlefield. They held Gatling fireworks in their hands, lit them with lighters, pointed them at the enemy, and began to fire at them.
Gatling fireworks can be launched more than ten meters away, and are basically fire makers.
The enemy encirclement outside Zhiyi City soon expanded several times.
It's like an acre of rice field, but only three-tenths of it has been harvested.
When Tarsan saw who was leading the team, his face turned grim with anger.
He angrily asked, "What the hell is going on?"
"Are all the soldiers led by Mu Zhao useless?"
"A commander of a sect led 50,000 soldiers, but couldn't stop 30,000 people from leaving the city."
When he thought about the fact that three thousand Eastern Zhou prisoners were not enough to stop the Da Jing army for two hours, he was so angry that he wanted to spit out blood.
Xiahou Dun said with a stern face: "Pei Yi, go to the East Gate to find Mu Zhao.
Let him attack the East Gate with all his strength. When the Dajing Army outside the city learns of the situation, they will surely rush back to support. ”
He estimated that there were not many troops left of the Dajing Army in Zhiyi City.
This is a good time to make an effort.
Pei Yi accepted the order: "Yes! I will lead a team there right away."
Pei Yi led a dozen cavalrymen and rushed to the east gate.
When he rushed to the East Gate, he was stunned by the scene before him.
There were 50,000 Eastern Zhou soldiers ready to go outside the East Gate, but there was no one under the gate, not even a single arrow.
There was no trace of a battlefield.
Pei Yi frowned and rode his horse in front of Mu Zhao.
He said, "General Mu, the Marshal asked you to attack the city with all your strength."
Mu Zhao sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to fight, but Prince Dajing is too treacherous.
He used the Eastern Zhou woman to threaten me, so that I would not dare to act rashly.
You also know that my sister and I depend on each other for survival, and I really don't dare to gamble with my sister's life. ”
Pei Yi snorted in his heart, the person might have died a long time ago, and it was hard to say whether he was still in the city.
He said: "In this case, General Mu will lead his troops to support the Marshal and together we will besiege the north gate and take down Zhiyi City in one fell swoop."
Hearing this, Mu Zhao sighed again: "When forming an alliance, General Xiahou did not propose that the three kingdoms enter through one city gate.
Soldiers from the Three Kingdoms participated in the battle, and there were too many people involved, so there was a fear that friendly forces would be injured by mistake.
I will stick to the original plan and besiege the city at the East Gate.
It doesn't go against General Xiahou's wishes. ”
Pei Yi was speechless.
He looked at the five thousand soldiers of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and realized that there was no intention to fight in their eyes.
Pei Yi knew that Mu Zhao had tricked him, so he gritted his teeth, held the reins tightly, and rode his horse back.
Song Yuan looked at Pei Yi and the Northern Liang Army he led as they gradually ran away.
He couldn't help but ask: "Young Marshal, why did you let him go?"
Mu Zhao said calmly: "Letting him go means that I don't want to be an enemy of Beiliang.
There is a good reason to play tricks on Beiliang and Chibei today, and we can still sit down and talk in the future.
If I had ordered Pei Yi to be shot just now, it would be declaring war on Xiahou Dun.
This person seems magnanimous, but in fact he is hypocritical, vindictive, and as vicious as a snake.
The Eastern Zhou Dynasty was no match for the Northern Liang, nor could it withstand Northern Liang's retaliation. ”
Song Yuan asked again: "What about Chibei?"
Mu Zhao glanced to the north: "The blood feud of destroying a city is irreconcilable!"
The sky gradually darkened.
A victory horn was sounded outside Zhiyi City.
"Great victory!"
“We won!”
