Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2848 Li Cunxiao defeated Yuan Jiuling, and the five tigers came out to defeat Xuchang (End) [8000-word chapter]

Chapter 2844: Li Cunxiao defeated Yuan Jiuling, and the five tigers came out to defeat Xuchang (End)
For the Yingchuan Qin Army, it was not difficult to break through Xuchang. They could break the city at any time, but the real difficulty was the right time.

Once the city of Xuchang is breached, Chenliu's Cao army will definitely retreat eastward. If the Qin army cannot block Cao's retreat before then, there is a high probability that Cao's army will escape, since a new round of offensive and defensive war of attrition will begin.

Therefore, the two cities of Puyang and Xuchang must be captured at the same time, or within a similar period of time, in order to block the retreat of Cao Jun on the western front, and then wipe out the main force of Cao Jun.

There are two cities in Puyang and Xuchang, one in the south and one in the north. The defenders in the city are abundant and guarded by famous generals and fierce generals. It is naturally not easy to break through in a short time.

The two cities of Xuchang and Puyang faced similar situations. They were both fortified cities, but their morale was low after repeated defeats, and they had become afraid of the Qin army.

However, relatively speaking, the difficulty of breaking Xuchang is much smaller than that of Puyang.

The reason is also very simple. Among the [-] defenders in Puyang, only [-] were Wei troops, and the other [-] were Ming troops.

The Wei army was afraid of the Qin army, but the Ming army was not, so Le Yi was able to withstand Bai Qi's nine-day fierce attack.

On the other hand, on the Xuchang side, the defenders were all composed of Wei troops, and many new soldiers were temporarily recruited, and there were no strong generals of Niu Mowang's level in the city.

Although the three generals Zhang Guifang, Zhu Hai, and Xue Ju are strong, they are only junior war gods with a basic strength of 105. They are not necessarily the opponents of Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and other generals, let alone Lu Bu and Zhao Yun in the Qin army. .

In addition, there are not only undercover Qin troops in Xuchang City, but also many detailed operations have been arranged in advance. Any outbreak will definitely cause great trouble to the defenders.

It was precisely because of the huge disparity in strength between Qin and Wei that Ying Hao felt that it was not difficult to break the city, so he postponed his offensive and stopped attacking Xuchang until Bai Qi was about to break through Puyang before taking action.

It wasn't until Bai Qi sent a message saying that Puyang would be conquered within five days that Ying Hao launched another offensive against Xuchang City.

When Bai Qi's message came back, the offensive and defensive battle of Puyang had been going on for five days. Although the Qin army's offensive was fierce and caused a lot of casualties to the defenders, there was no sign of breaking the city.

Under such circumstances, Ying Hao did not dare to guarantee that Bai Qi would be able to break the city, but since Bai Qi had said that he could break it in five days, he still chose to believe and cooperate with Bai Qi in taking action.

It is not difficult for the Yingchuan Qin army to break through Yingchuan, but the difficulty is that they must find the right time.

Since Bai Qi promised to break Puyang within five days, he must break the city within four to six days.

If the city is captured on the fourth day, the Qin army in Yingchuan will wake up one day early, and on the sixth day they will rise one day late.

Only by conquering Xuchang in these three days could the Qin army completely block Cao Jun's eastward retreat on the western front before Cao Jun had time to react.

But if it had been two days earlier or two days later, Cao Cao might have been able to react, and it would have been possible for Chen Liu and Cao Cao's army to escape the encirclement.

Therefore, for the Qin Army, the second offensive and defensive battle of Xuchang was perhaps the most tense and tangled siege since the Qin Army formed an army.

The city cannot be broken too quickly, nor can it be broken too slowly. Moreover, even if Xuchang is broken, the defenders cannot be wiped out in one fell swoop, and the lurking Chen Gong must break out.

This series of demands alone are not too much, but put them all together, which really makes all the Qin generals feel embarrassed. But since His Majesty demands this, they have no choice but to bite the bullet.

Looking at Xuchang City in the distance, Ying Hao asked Guo Jia beside him: "Fengxiao, do you think Mr. Gongtai can understand our intentions without any prompting?"

Guo Jia hesitated for a moment and then replied: "Your Majesty, you should be able to understand Gongtai's strategy. If not, you will have to give up part of the subsequent plans."

"That's the only way to do it."

Ying Hao sighed lightly, and then ordered the attack to begin.
On the first day of the attack on Xuchang, it was also when the morale of the Qin army was at its strongest. Ying Hao was worried that the Qin army would be overwhelming, so he directly defeated Xuchang, so he only sent Ma Chao and Huang Zhong to participate in the siege. There are only [-].

As a result, on the first day of the siege, although the city of Xuchang was crumbling and the defenders suffered heavy casualties, Cao Jun was still able to hold on.

On the second day of the attack on Xuchang, due to the setback on the first day, the Qin army lost morale slightly, and the generals became Huang Zhong and Xu Chu. The two gods of war participated in the siege at the same time, so naturally they still failed to conquer Xuchang.

On the third day of the attack on Xuchang, as the Qin army's attacks were repelled for two consecutive days, the morale of Cao's army in the city increased and the resistance increased significantly.

Seeing this, Ying Hao sent the remnants of the three war gods Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, and Xu Chu to attack the city, and increased the remaining siege troops to [-]. This also made the intensity of the siege on the third day greatly exceed that of the previous two days.

On the third day of the siege, although the Qin army failed to defeat Xuchang, it once again damaged the morale of Cao's army.

Many of the defenders in Xuchang City were new soldiers. How could they have ever experienced such a high-intensity offensive and defensive battle?
After the one-day siege battle, a large number of new recruits died in the battle, which made many of the recruits fearful and worried that they would die in the next day's defensive battle, thus causing the morale of the defenders to drop.

Seeing this, Cao Bin was extremely anxious, but he had no good solution. He could only replace all the soldiers guarding the city tower with veterans and let the new soldiers serve as substitutes.

The morale of the veterans is actually not very high. After all, they were defeated all the way from Jiaxian to Xuchang. It would be wise to have high morale. However, they managed to defend the city for three days, so they did not lose their will to resist.

The defensive configuration of all veterans also greatly increased the defensive power of Xuchang City, but facing the elite Qin army with high morale, no one was confident that they would be able to defend it.

Bai Qi set the time to conquer Puyang on the tenth day, so the Yinchuan Qin army could completely break the city on the ninth day, which was the fourth day of the forcible attack on Xuchang.

But to be on the safe side, Ying Hao decided to wait until the fifth or sixth day, when news of Bai Qi's attack on the city came, and then it would not be too late to attack Xuchang City.

Of course, even if Bai Qi couldn't break the city in ten days, or even failed to break Puyang on the 11th, then Ying Hao would have to break the city on the sixth day, so as to gain another day or two for Bai Qi's side. time.

Bai Qi himself promised ten days, but Ying Hao could give him thirteen days. And with Bai Qi's ability, it's impossible to defeat Puyang in thirteen days, right?
The siege battle on the fourth and fifth days became more intense. The Qin army not only dispatched three gods of war, but also [-] catapults, [-] various crossbows, and [-] troops to attack the city.

The casualties of the Qin army in these two days alone reached [-], and the casualties of the defenders would only be higher than this, and the veterans were damaged to the point of breaking their muscles and bones.

But just when Cao Bin thought he could no longer hold on, the Qin army did not attack overnight, but chose to withdraw.

Not only Cao Bin, but also Zhang Guifang, Zhu Hai and other generals were extremely puzzled by this.

Seeing this, Chen Gong stood up and analyzed: "I think the Qin army was worried about casualties, so that's why it was like this. After all, the Qin army is different from my army. Every time a soldier of the Qin army dies in battle, he will be paid a pension." Yes, but this gave our army a chance to breathe."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present had complicated expressions.

The soldiers of the Qin army would receive pensions when they died, but their soldiers died in vain. This would probably make anyone feel unbalanced, but who made the Wei State already poor and suffered heavy casualties in the war.

If the pension is really paid, let alone according to the Qin Army's pension standard, even if it is only half, it will not be able to empty out the entire Wei State.

Chen Gong looked at the slowly retreating Qin army, but a strange look flashed in his eyes. In order to avoid being suspected by Cao Bin, although he had completely cut off contact with the online line, it did not mean that his people at Heibingtai could not contact him.

But now even Xuchang City is about to be breached, but no one has contacted him to help breach the city. Does this mean that his efforts are no longer needed to breach Xuchang?Or does he have a more important mission and needs to continue to lurk?
No, I'm afraid he has already been on Cao Wei's suspect list. The spies in Xuchang City did not contact him, but to protect him.

At this thought, Chen Gong felt a cold sweat break out from his back, and realized that his current situation was very dangerous.

Although Chen Gong was confident of escaping under the protection of the spies, his previous efforts would be in vain, so he decided to continue lurking instead.

Chen Gong did not know the specific tactical arrangements of the Qin Army, but he knew that the Qin Army's reaction was obviously abnormal. From this, he could infer that the Qin Army might not want to completely annihilate the Xuchang defenders. If combined with this, if he continued to lurk, then The Qin army may have wanted to cooperate with him and let him lead some of the defenders to break out, so as to eliminate suspicion and gain the trust of Cao Wei's senior officials again.

With this thought, Chen Gong had already made a decision in his mind, and that night he took the initiative to find Cao Bin and persuaded him to prepare in advance to break through the city.

Cao Bin's eyes showed a thoughtful look. He had previously suspected that Chen Gong was an undercover agent. After all, Chen Gong had been captured by the Qin army.

However, Chen Gong was not the only one who was captured and released. After Chen Gong came back, he had been planning for Cao Wei with all his heart. He had not done any wrongdoing, and it really did not look like he had rebelled.

Cao Bin recalled what Chen Gong had just said. Although Chen Gong was suspicious, his eyes were not wrong.

Song's reinforcements were blocked by Arthur, and Xuchang was isolated and helpless, and indeed could not hold on for long.

There is still a glimmer of hope to break out of the siege, but if you stick to the isolated city, you will definitely die.

"Military advisor, if we want to break through, where should we break out?"

Cao Bin asked for advice on the surface, but in fact he was testing, and this also made Chen Gong feel shuddering.

"Break through the encirclement eastward and go to join the Song reinforcements." Chen Gong said seriously.

"Oh?"

Cao Bin's face condensed and he said expressionlessly: "Why not break out to the northeast, retreat to Chenliu, and go to join the lord?"

"We must not break through to Chenliu. If Xuchang falls, the south of Chenliu will be blocked by the Qin army. If Puyang cannot be defended, the Qin army can march straight in and completely cut off our army's retreat."

At this point, Chen Gong paused deliberately, and after looking at Cao Bin's expression, he continued: "If we break out to the northeast, regardless of whether we can break out, even if we can, we will just jump from one fire pit to another. Just a fire pit.

It is better to break out to the east and join the Song army. Even if the Qin army will intercept us, at least there will be a Song army to support us. "

"That's right. It's getting late. The military advisor should go back and rest. I still need to think about it."

"promise."

Looking at Chen Li's back, the suspicion in Cao Bin's heart faded a little.

If Chen Gong had just said that he would break out to Chenliu, Cao Bin would have captured him without hesitation, because with Chen Gong's strategy, it was impossible not to see what it meant to retreat to Chenliu, but he said that he would break out to the east. This is the most beneficial plan for Cao Jun in Xuchang.

"It doesn't look like it. If it's not Chen Gong, who could it be?"

Cao Bin couldn't help but sigh. After all, if it weren't for Chen Gong, there would be many suspects.

"That's all. What's true can't be fake, and what's fake can't be true. Regardless of whether it's Chen Gong or not, as long as I keep my guard up, this spy will reveal his flaws sooner or later."

At the same time, in the main tent of the Qin Army, the generals of the Qin Army who were supposed to rest, instead of resting, gathered together and waited for an extremely important news, that is, whether Bai Qi had conquered Puyang.

The strong attack on the fifth day, coupled with the fact that Bai Qi's flying pigeon did not arrive after waiting for two hours after dark to deliver the message, showed that Bai Qi failed to conquer Puyang within ten days.

In this regard, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and other generals were disappointed and couldn't help but secretly said: "I never thought that General Bai Qi would make a miscalculation one day."

Regardless of whether Bai Qi can capture Puyang in ten days, the Yingchuan Qin army will capture Xuchang on the sixth day, so Bai Qi will still have three days.

But just when the generals were about to return to their tents to rest, Bai Qi's flying pigeon message brought the news that Puyang had been conquered, which immediately made all the generals in the tents excited.

"Go back and have a good rest and recharge your batteries. We will definitely attack Xuchang tomorrow." Ying Hao said with a smile.

"Promise." Zhao Yun and other generals responded in unison.

Early the next morning, 12 Qin troops swarmed out of the camp and surrounded Xuchang City.

In order to defeat Xuchang as soon as possible this time, Ying Hao not only prepared to personally command the army to attack the city, but also sent five war gods, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Ma Chao, to participate in the siege. The siege equipment and troops used were more powerful than before. There are many, and the two elite battalions of the Tiger Guard and the Iron Guard are leading the charge.

After looking at Cao Bin on the tower, Ying Hao calmly pulled out the sword from his waist, waved it and shouted: "Attack the city."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two major skills of 'Holy Emperor' and 'Open Sky' were activated one after another.

[Ding dong, Ying Hao's skill 'Holy Emperor' effect 3 is activated. When he is on the battlefield in person, the generals and commanders of the entire army +1, the force of the entire army +2, and the morale, combat power, fighting spirit of the entire army...all are great. Amplitude increased.

Qin Hao's five dimensions: commander 101, force 108, intelligence 100, politics 103, charm 108;

Equipment: Divine Overlord Halberd, Holy Spirit Suit +1, Snow Dragon Horse +1;

Currently: Commander Ying Hao has increased to 102, and his force has increased to 112; Commander Zhao Yun has increased to 95, and his force has increased to 112;

Huang Zhong's commandership rose to 91, and his force rose to 110;

Dian Wei's commander increased to 78, and his force increased to 110;

Xu Chu's commandership increased to 80, and his force increased to 109;

Ma Chao's command rose to 92, and his force rose to 109;

...]

[Ding dong, Ying Hao's skill 'Open Heaven' effect 1 is activated. As an emperor, personally participating in the battle can greatly improve the morale of the entire army, the entire army's force +1, and the commander +1;

The effect of opening the sky is 1, superimposing the Holy Emperor effect of 3, and the Qin army's military strength is +1;

Currently: Ying Hao’s commandership has increased to 103, and his force has increased to 114;

Zhao Yun's command increased to 96, and his force increased to 114;

Huang Zhong's commandership rose to 92, and his force rose to 112;

Dian Wei's commander increased to 79, and his force increased to 112;

Xu Chu's commandership increased to 81, and his force increased to 111;

Ma Chao's command rose to 93, and his force rose to 111;

...]

With the activation of Ying Hao's two magical skills of 'Holy Emperor' and 'Open Heaven', the generals in the army were increased by 2 points of command, and the army was also increased by 4 points of force, only 1 point away from reaching the group level. The limit of growth.

But this is obviously not the limit of the Qin army.

[Ding dong, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Ma Chao are present at the same time, and the effects 1, 2, and 3 of the combo skill "Five Tigers Breaking the Ultimate" are activated one after another:

When five people are present at the same time, the five people's force +5, and the general's command +3, and the combat power, morale, and marching speed of the entire army will be increased... The more people present, the greater the increase in the army.

Current: Commander Ying Hao has increased to 106;

Zhao Yun's force increased to 119;

Huang Zhong's force rose to 117;

Dianwei's force increased to 117;

Xu Chu’s force increased to 116;

Ma Chao’s force increased to 116;]

The 4-point group increase of 'Holy Emperor' and 'Kaitian', plus the 5-point general increase of 'Five Tigers Poji', Zhao Yun and other five tiger generals have already gained a full 9 points without even using a single skill. Increase in force.

With a 9-point increase in force, even Ma Chao and Xu Chu, who have base strength of 105, have a force value of 116 without using skills. And if skills are used, the weakest among the new five tigers may be able to reach the high-level God of War level. Bar.

As for the strongest Zhao Yun, it's hard to say. After all, Zhao Yun has other enhancements.

The Da Qin version of the Five Tiger Generals carefully assembled by Ying Hao is more than just a combination of skills. In addition to the Five Tigers Breaking the Ultimate, there is also a Liger and Tiger.

[Ding dong, Dian Wei and Xu Chu are present at the same time, and the effects 1 and 4 of the combo skill 'Liger and Tiger Two Evils' are activated one after another. The strength of both people is +4 at the same time, the strength of the Iron Guard and the Tiger Guard is +1, and the morale of all soldiers is Increases, physical strength increases, cooperation increases, tacit understanding increases...

Current: Dian Wei’s force has increased to 121;

Xu Chu’s force increased to 120;

Zhao Yun's force increased to 120;

Huang Zhong's force rose to 118;

Ma Chao's strength rose to 117;

...]

The reason why Ying Hao sent the two elites, the Iron Guard and the Tiger Guard, to attack the city and sent Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao and other generals into the army was just to get this 1 point increase in the entire army. He also wanted to see the new five. Where is the tiger's limit?

After the activation of 'Two Evils of Liger and Tiger', Dian Wei and Xu Chu obtained two major combo skills, as well as Holy Emperor + Kaitian, a full 14-point increase in force. This was simply an epic enhancement for the two of them.

Especially Dianwei, who has a base of 106, has a force value of 121 without using skills, even surpassing Zhao Yun, who has a base of 108. Xu Chu, who has a base of 105, has tied Zhao Yun. This is definitely the best performance of the two so far. The most powerful one so far.

Looking at the exaggerated force value of the five tigers, Ying Hao was naturally extremely satisfied. They were indeed the new five tigers that he had carefully crafted. They were already so strong without using their skills. What if they had all their skills activated?I'm afraid even Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu can't bear it.

Ying Hao, who is in command of 106, can command even an army of hundreds of thousands, let alone an army of 12.

Under the command of Ying Hao, 12 Qin troops launched an attack on Xuchang in a clear and orderly manner. Among them, [-] troops were responsible for the siege of the city, while the other [-] elite troops were responsible for storming the west gate.

Among the 8000 Qin troops who mainly attacked the west gate, 3000 were responsible for controlling the catapult array, and [-] were responsible for controlling various types of crossbows, using flying rocks and crossbow arrows to suppress the long-range weapons of the tower.

In addition, there are specialized soldiers responsible for transportation and building ladders. If you remove the miscellaneous auxiliary soldiers, the Qin army actually responsible for storming the city gate is actually only the New Five Tigers, [-] iron guards and tiger guards, and Another five thousand elite troops totaled fifteen thousand troops.

But only fifteen thousand elites were enough. After all, what they faced was not the Cao army in its heyday, but the Cao army that had been weakened layer by layer and whose morale was greatly inferior to before.

When the Qin Army first attacked Xuchang, the moat of Xuchang was filled in. However, when the Qin Army stopped in Xuchang, the moat was cleared again, but it was filled in again during the first five days of siege. Therefore, the Qin army can directly launch a battle to climb the city.

Under the suppression of the Qin army's catapults and powerful crossbows, although the Xuchang defense fortifications were not completely destroyed, they were seriously damaged. There was not much firepower to suppress the Qin army who launched the assault on the city, and the little firepower was obviously It was unable to have much impact on the Qin army.

On the tower of Xuchang City, Cao Bin was shouting and giving orders, trying to block the Qin army's fierce offensive. However, his commander only had 97 (+1) points, which was a full 9 points difference between him and Ying Hao. Naturally, it could not be Ying Hao. Hao's opponent, and was quickly beaten to the point where he was helpless.

[Ding dong, Cao Bin's skill 'Copper Wall' effect 2 is activated. When defending, the commander +2, the force +3, and the morale and combat power of the whole army...are partially improved.

曹彬五维：统帅97（+1），武力95（+3），智力82（+2），政治60（+7），魅力88（+2）；
Currently: Cao Bin’s commandership has increased to 99, and his force has increased to 98;]

Even after activating the 'Copper Wall', Cao Bin's commander was increased to 99, and there was still a 106-point gap between him and Ying Hao's 7. He still couldn't get rid of Ying Hao's suppression of his commander, let alone the overall military strength. Advantage.

The Qin army's ladder was specially made and difficult to push down. The kerosene in Xuchang City had been exhausted, and the thunder stone rolling wood was too slow to transport. Moreover, once the body was exposed, it was easy to be sniped by the Qin army's sharp archers. .

For a time, even the commander-in-chief 99 Cao Bin felt helpless. He even felt that the Qin army on the opposite side had changed a group of people. Otherwise, why would the offensive be more than twice as strong as the previous five days?
Seeing the Qin army's first round of attack, there was a group of Qin soldiers waiting to go up to the city tower. Cao Bin was completely anxious and immediately mobilized archers to focus the fire. Unexpectedly, this group of Qin soldiers who were from iron guards held a shield in one hand and climbed up with the other. Climbing, he actually blocked the defender's bow and arrow.

"Hurry up and bring the thundering stone and rolling wood up, and give me a hard hit."

Cao Bin shouted the order, but soon a scene that shocked him again appeared. After several iron guards compacted together, they actually built a 45-degree slope with their shields, blocking their entire bodies. Under the shield.

Although the thunder stone rolling log that was smashed down was heavy, the Qin soldiers below supported each other and could still weigh dozens of kilograms. However, if they could only be smashed down at once, the thunder stone rolling log would roll down the slope.

Cao Bin was completely stunned after seeing this scene. He obviously didn't expect that there was such a way to resist the thunder stone rolling wood, but he soon discovered the flaw. After all, if he resisted the thunder stone rolling wood like this, both sides would lose the shield protection, thus giving Cao Jun's archers created an opportunity to take advantage of.

Cao Bin quickly directed the archers to focus their fire, but he did not expect that Tie Weique calmly withdrew his shield to defend himself. Looking at the soldiers carrying accessories and rolling logs, as soon as they showed up, they would be sniped by the Qin army's sharp archers, but there was nothing they could do. Throw the thunder stone and roll the wood.

Cao Bin had no choice but to command catapults to break the situation. However, under the suppression of the Qin army's flying rocks and arrows, he could only mobilize a few catapults. However, if they could hit, the crisis could still be temporarily resolved.

"Adjust the direction quickly."

After receiving Cao Bin's order, Wei general Lei Xu, who was in charge of the catapult troops, immediately commanded the three catapults to adjust their direction.

"Prepare……"

Before the word 'release' could be said, Lei Xu was shot directly in the head with an arrow, and died tragically on the spot. The soldier responsible for controlling the catapult was also shot to death with an arrow.

You know, catapults in various countries are equipped with arrow-blocking shields, which can basically block [-]% of arrows, but there are no gaps. This soldier was killed by arrows in the gaps.

Aiming at the gap in the shield and shooting the enemy, the person who can do this is obviously not an ordinary archer, and this person is Huang Zhong.

[Ding dong, Huang Zhong’s skill ‘Arrow God’ is activated, his force instantly increases by 6, and his current force rises to 124;]

On the ladder, after killing one of the soldiers controlling the catapult, Huang Zhong immediately opened his bow again and shot two more Cao soldiers to death, and the 124-power bow and arrow even destroyed the catapult.

"what?"

Cao Bin was shocked when he saw this, and quickly retreated into the army, not daring to be exposed anymore. After all, with Huang Zhong's archery skills, it was easy to snipe him.

"Haha, Han Sheng is good at archery."

Dian Wei, who was on another ladder, saw Huang Zhong destroying three catapults with three arrows, and suddenly laughed with an overbearing look on his face.

But at this moment, Wei Jiang Lei Kai held up a boulder weighing two hundred kilograms and walked quickly to the ladder where Dian Weiwei was.

"Dian Wei, I will crush you to death."

[Ding dong, Lei Kai's skill 'Brave' activates force +4, Lei Kai's base force is 101, and the current force has increased to 105. 】

Looking at the boulder that was thrown at him, Dian Wei showed a serious expression. After using his halberd with all his strength to force it to bounce away, he saw that Lei Kai had lifted a boulder, so he immediately took out a small halberd from his waist and threw it out.

[Ding dong, Dian Wei’s skill ‘Flying Halberd’ is activated, his force instantly increases by 6, and Dian Wei’s current force increases to 127; ]

The power of Dian Wei's flying halberd was as high as 127. After drawing a beautiful arc in the air, he didn't give Lei Kai any chance to react. In an instant, he cut the throats of five of his Cao soldiers at the same time, and then six of their heads. He fell from the tower at the same time as the corpse.

After Dian Wei casually knocked away Yin's broken body that fell down, he started to climb quickly using his hands and feet. He rushed to the tower in a short while and became the first person to climb onto the tower.

The Cao soldiers who ran over carrying the rolling logs were frightened and fled when they saw that the man who came up was the ferocious Dian Wei. However, more Cao Wei spearmen gathered and tried to push him down.

Dian Wei immediately wielded his halberds and started killing, opening up more space at the ladder so that more soldiers could come over, and Huang Zhong also climbed onto the tower at this time.

Not long after Dian Wei and Huang Zhong ascended the tower, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, and Ma Chao also attacked the tower one after another, and this was basically the end.

When Cao Bin saw that in addition to the four generals Dian and Wei, even Zhao Yun was also on the tower, he knew that the west gate could not be defended, because even if the three generals Zhang Guifang were sent out, they would not be able to stop these five Qin generals.

Seeing more and more Qin soldiers on the city tower, Cao Bin could only abandon the city tower and ordered the entire army to retreat to the inner city, preparing to use street fighting to delay time.

In this way, under the command of Ying Hao and the fierce attack of the New Five Tigers, Xuchang City, which had stood firm for five days, could not even hold on for an hour on the sixth day before the Qin army forcefully breached the tower and then opened it from the inside. West Gate.

Seeing that the city gate was opened, Ying Hao immediately ordered [-] cavalry to rush into the city, preparing to defeat Cao's army who was stubbornly resisting in the city as quickly as possible. Zhao Yun and Ma Chao re-handed over the command of the infantry to Dian Wei and Xu Chu. Then he led the cavalry into the city and continued fighting.
