"Boom!"

Xia Houyuan was shocked, and hurriedly sped up his speed and rushed in the direction of the smoke.

"Phew!" Halfway through, the guards who went to investigate rushed back to report on their flying horses. "General! The place ahead of you is the city treasury! ”

"What!"

"What!"

I had already guessed something in my heart, but when I really got the confirmation news, I couldn't help but exclaim.

Cheng Yu was the first to react, and advised Xia Houyuan: "The general quickly sent people to put out the fire, otherwise the grain in the city will be destroyed, and I am afraid that it will fall into a dangerous situation without food!" ”

Xia Houyuan anxiously shouted to the guards beside him: "Wait for the order, let the besieging army divide into a part, go to fight the fire, and be sure to extinguish the fire before it spreads." ”

"Yes!" The three horsemen got the order and hurried to the south gate.

After Xia Houyuan gave the order, he hurriedly led the remaining guards to the treasury.

Outside the treasury, Captain Wang led 500 soldiers from his headquarters and was struggling to resist the rushing Cao army.

"Lord Captain, there are more and more Cao troops, let's withdraw quickly!" Sima Yijun's face was bloody, and he said in horror.

Captain Wang held a bloody long sword in his hand, and shouted angrily: "I wait here for a little longer, I can buy a little more time for the brothers at the south gate, and the fire is still small, how can you easily retreat, if you are timid and afraid of death, just leave alone!" ”

"Alas!" Jun Sima sighed and continued to rush towards Cao Jun in front.

Captain Wang knew in his heart that only the bigger the fire, the safer it would be when they retreated.

Half an hour later, the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and there were more and more Cao troops, seeing that the time was ripe, Captain Wang hurriedly led the remnants of the army to fight his way out of the encirclement.

Everything was as Wang Xiaowei thought, Cao Jun did not put his mind on them, but only occupied the treasury and began to put out the fire.

And Zhang Liao at the south gate saw that the offensive of the Cao army was slowing down, and he knew that it must be which side of the treasury attracted the energy of the Cao army.

With a rare respite, Zhang Liao hurriedly divided the army into two parts, and let them take turns to rest and eat, recover their strength, and prepare for the next hard battle.

Not long after, Zhang Liao, who was eating dry food, saw Captain Wang leading dozens of remnants of soldiers to kill back, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Captain Wang has worked hard, rest in peace, and leave the rest to the general." Seeing that Captain Wang's footsteps were vain, Zhang Liao hurriedly asked someone to help him go to the attic to rest.

In a big battle, Captain Wang also ran out of strength, saluted, and followed the soldiers to rest.

In the next few hours, the offensive of the Cao army was not very fierce, and Zhang Liao easily blocked the Cao army.

Halfway through the Keshen period, Cao's army suddenly stepped up its offensive, and once attacked the castle tower and fought with the defenders.

Seeing that the offensive was urgent, Zhang Liao knew that it must be that the fire in the treasury had been extinguished, and now was the most dangerous moment, if he could hold on to the dark, the chance of breaking through would increase several times.

In order to boost morale, Zhang Liao stuck to the front and fought to the death with a crescent halberd.

After three hours of fierce fighting, the sky finally became completely dark, and Zhang Liao took advantage of the change of attack of Cao's army, hurriedly retreated to a safe place, and ordered the army to assemble before he had time to rest.

Looking at the soldiers with fear and confusion on their faces, Zhang Liao decided not to deceive them, and let them decide to stay for themselves.

"Soldiers! Cao's army has already entered the city, Chen Liucheng can't hold it, Wen Hou has already gone to Yecheng first, and Liaodong Hou, the general of Zuo. ”

"If you want to go with you, follow the general out of the siege and go to Yecheng to ensure that you have a place to live."

"If you don't want to leave, after I leave, I will put down my weapons and surrender, Cao Jun will definitely not embarrass you, whether to go or stay, it is all up to you to decide, and the general will never force you!"

Hearing Zhang Liao's words, the defenders began to whisper and exchange words with each other.

There was not much time, Zhang Liao said loudly: "If you are willing to follow, follow closely behind, prepare to break through, and if you don't want to, stay!" ”

"Kill!" Zhang Liao roared, holding a crescent halberd, and rushed towards the Cao army who wanted to attack the city tower.

Seeing this, most of the soldiers behind him followed Zhang Liao and rushed towards the city, only a few soldiers chose to stay, because their families were young and they were all in the city.

Seeing Zhang Liao leading the army to rush over, Cao's army did not panic, because they had already been explained and knew that the defenders might break through.

When the two armies intersected, the battle became white-hot, and they began to scuffle and fight each other.

The crescent halberd in Zhang Liao's hand was like a dragon going out to sea, and wherever he passed, Cao Jun was either killed or wounded.

Seeing this, Cao Ren, who led the army, shouted loudly, and slapped his horse with a knife to meet him. "Zhang Liao is so rampant, Cao Ren is here to meet you!"

Listening to the sound and distinguishing the position, Zhang Liao was not afraid at all, brandished the crescent halberd, and rushed in the direction of Cao Ren.

By the faint light of the fire, by the time he saw his face clearly, Cao Ren had already rushed to within thirty meters.

"Boom!"

"Hiss ......"

The weapons intersected one by one, and quickly slashed apart, rubbing out sparks.

It seems that this Cao Ren has some ability, and at the moment, he can only fight quickly, otherwise he will not be able to take him, Zhang Liao has decided not to retain his strength in an instant, and is ready to defeat Cao Ren with one move.

"Ahh

"Drink!"

"Boom!"

"Plop!"

The weapons intersected again, making a loud metal crash.

I don't know if Cao Ren has reservations, or he underestimated Zhang Liao, and was directly hit by this blow and fell off the horse.

Zhang Liao succeeded in one blow, and did not do much entanglement, seized Cao Ren's war horse, and led the army to rush towards the city gate. "Soldiers! Keep up! ”

"Ahh

"Ahh

……

The war horse galloped forward, and Cao Jun, who was intercepting along the way, kept screaming and fell to the ground.

Seeing that Zhang Liao was like entering the situation of no one, the morale of the defenders who followed was greatly boosted, and they believed more and more in their hearts that they could break out of the encirclement, so they raised their weapons and closely followed the bloody road that had been evaded, and rushed forward.

"Squeak squeak...... defenders recaptured the city gate, and several people hurriedly struggled to open it.

Seeing that the city gate was more than half open, Zhang Liao stopped and shouted to Wei Xu and the others behind him: "Wait until you quickly lead the army to the direction of Yecheng, and you will stay behind to cut off the rear for you." ”

When Wei Xu and the others heard the order, they didn't say much, and led the remnants of the army that followed them to rush out of the city gate and rushed forward.

Cao Ren, who was robbed of his war horse, was looking for Zhang Liao everywhere at this time, preparing to avenge a blow, but the night was getting darker and darker, and he couldn't see the distance at all.

"Zhang Liaopifu, even if you run fast, the next time you meet you, you must cut off your head to relieve the hatred in your heart."

Seeing that the defenders were fleeing quickly outside the city, Cao Ren cursed and rushed over with a big knife in hand.

"Ahh

"Poof!"

Cao Ren gathered the anger in his heart on the knife, frantically vented on the resistance to the defenders, and led the pursuing Cao army to quickly force into the city gate.

Zhang Liao, who was guarding the city gate, saw Cao Jun rushing quickly, and he was also anxious, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up!" Let's go......"

Hearing the familiar voice, Cao Ren was overjoyed, he really had nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it didn't take any effort to get it.

"Whew!" Suddenly, feeling a knife wind coming quickly, Zhang Liao hurriedly leaned on the horse's back to dodge the blow.

Lying on the back of the horse, he quickly glanced at it, and saw that it was Cao Ren who swung the knife, Zhang Liao showed a sneer on his face, and stabbed him with a halberd.
