Chapter 309: The Horn of War

The bright morning light bloomed and disappeared into the clouds, and occasionally birds flew past in the sky, as if they saw something, and after a moment they turned the trajectory of flight in a panic, and flew away into the distance.

A vole curiously crawled out of the burrow, the iron hooves whistled over its head, frightened and hurriedly drilled back, the horse's hooves fell not far away, splashed the dust on the ground, and ran quickly across the ground, and then, more horses' hooves surged over, several hoofing sounds, someone on the horseback raised the bow and arrow to shoot the forward running, the rumbling hooves shook the ground, the body running forward fell from the horse, one of the wolf riders who came after him, leaned over and pulled out the arrow on the back of the corpse, inserted it back into the quiver behind the waist, and went away with his companions.

A large number of wolf-riding scouts began to appear on the field, chasing the junzhou scouts from Xiapi City, and skirmishes like this would occasionally appear within the distance that could be seen from the city walls.

The city gate has been closed in the early morning of this day, Zhang Liao, Song Xian, Hao Meng, Wei Xu, Wei Yue and a group of generals are preparing to defend the city at the four gates, Zhang Liao patrols a section of the city wall, surrounded by soldiers running to and fro, with a nervous and panicked look on his face, extending left and right, a large number of timber in the hands of the busy figure, and a tube of arrows are distributed one by one to the hands of the archers who line up the long dragon.

In the end, a large shield against arrows pressed against the wall, Zhang Liao, who was carrying a hook and sickle, and Hao Meng beside him looked at the city tower, majestic, holding the Fang Tian painting halberd standing there, when the hundred flower robes were stroking in the wind, the two went over to salute.

"Fengxian, if Cao Cao attacks from four gates, our troops will not be enough at all."

The sky light between the clouds shone down again, Lu Bu walked to the wall with the halberd, the chain armor rubbed softly, he looked at a dark cloud in the sky, "Gongsun Zhi and Cao Cao must only want to take my head, I will guard this west gate, they will only attack here, but I, Lu Bu, will be afraid of them?" ”

"Either way, they don't have much of a scheming scheme anymore, and they won't drag it out." Lu Buyao put the halberd on the masonry and looked angrily at the field outside the city: "....... Even if I don't have a red rabbit horse in Lu Bu, I can still kill them and be terrified! Go down and prepare yourselves, and the war will come quickly. ”

"Yes."

"Wen Yuan, you stay."

Just as the two of them were about to leave for their respective defensive positions, Lu Bu suddenly opened his mouth to let Zhang Liao stay, Hao Meng glanced back, his eyes flashed with complexity, and then turned around and walked away.

"What else do you have to tell me first?" Zhang Liao approached and raised his hand: "On the battle array, Liao will never be as confused as last time." ”

"Last time, others said that you colluded with Gongsun Zhi to let me suffer this defeat."

The golden light fell and shone on the city, Lu Bu pressed his hand on the battlement, and looked at him: "No matter how stupid I Lu Bu is, I won't easily believe in this divisive plan......

"Feng Xian...... Thank you. ”

Lu Bu waved his hand to interrupt him, reached over and pressed it on Zhang Liao's shoulder armor, pressed it down hard, and said in a low tone: "....... After listening to me, you Zhang Liao, both civil and military, follow me Lu Bu such a reckless man, I am too wronged by you, after this battle, don't learn Gao Shun, he is a dead brain...... And you have a better way......"

There is no need to say the words clearly, Zhang Liao has understood the meaning expressed in the words, and before he can answer, he vaguely heard the sound of silent footsteps outside the city wall, and in the distance, the army of Gongsun Zhi and Cao Cao has arrived.

Woo woo - woo woo -

The desolate horn sounded in the sky above the field, and the two of them who had stopped talking looked to the west, and as far as the eye could see, a huge phalanx like a dark cloud gradually took shape, as if the black line connecting the heavens and the earth was spreading.

"Slow down the left and right flanks and protect the formation!"

The galloping horses galloped, the knights' high-pitched cries ran through the line for several miles, the field of vision spread out in front and back, the banners covered the sky and the sun in the morning light, and the dense soldiers marched in unison, towards the huge city opposite, and soon stopped, in the shouting of orders.

Then, there were knights galloping in the various small arrays in front of them, and a voice sounded, roaring: "Array—"

With the order, the array of 10,000 people in the first three directions of the left and right split from the Chinese army, stepped forward with the sound of roaring footsteps, or moved left and right, freeing up the gap, and the shield and sword soldiers collided with a slight whirrence in the walk, and several equally huge phalanxes were formed one after another, and a large number of ladders were carried in the middle of the crowd of soldiers, and the surging sound of the war drums was deafening.

On the opposite side of them, farther ahead, is the city of Xiapi, across the city wall of more than ten miles, you can vaguely see countless figures shaking, the approach of the war makes the faces with nervousness and panic, the archers holding bows and arrows in the shouts of the generals, quickly rushed to the back of the big shield, someone leaned out half of their faces, held their breath and looked at the enemy formation in the distance, their hands were trembling slightly, and then extended back, over this section of the city wall, overlooking the neat and staggered streets and alleys below the city, the people in the city heard the sound of trumpets and war drums, Pedestrians who stayed on the street ran in fear and began to return home.

The wind blew through the sky, and the sky was full of clouds.

As the morning sun rises, and as it approaches noon, the sun shines through the gaps in the clouds, illuminating the earth, and the temperature becomes warm. Dressed in a black beast swallowing head armor, wearing a red cloak, and a circle of white wolf velvet on the outside of the collar armor stroking slightly in the wind, Gongsun Zhi rode a stunning shadow, and appeared on the hillside of the wolf riding arch guard, he looked at the outline of the city wall in front of him, and was fascinated for a long time.

"Did you think Lu Bu figured it out?"

Gongsun Zhi was riding on horseback, and suddenly spoke, and there was a sound of 'hmm' behind him, and a strong figure with a bandaged head was bound and stood there, as if he didn't want this man to bite his tongue and kill himself, and there were several wolf riders around him who held his arms firmly.

"I hope he can understand Zhang Yang's blood book, otherwise everything I did will be in vain, don't you say...... Gao Shun. He whispered the name.

In the next second, he grasped the hilt of the knife at his waist and slowly pulled it out......

……

The panicked city, Lu Mansion.

The approach of the war has immersed the entire mansion in a dead silence of tension, almost all of them know that the flying general Lu Bu is brave and invincible, but he has repeatedly failed miserably, and now the number of soldiers and horses has decreased dramatically, and no one has much hope for the direction of the war, and now he can only hold on for one day.

In the room, Lingqi was playing on the side, Yan was sewing some clothes, she had always been thrifty, wearing needlework at this time, and occasionally looking in the direction of the city wall outside the window, her eyes were full of worry.

"God, please bless my husband......"

She whispered, and outside the door, Sima Yi, Cai Zhenji, as well as many domestic servants and female dependents in the house gathered under the eaves, nervously waiting for the war, and everyone had almost no intention of doing things.

"Zhongda, what are you thinking?" The girl looked at the figure holding the halberd over there, shook her head and said, "It's okay to have Wen Hou over there, don't mess around." ”

Sima Yi held a painting halberd and spoke: "...... I want to go to the city wall and help Master kill the enemy. ”

The words spread through the crowd, the door of the room on the other side opened, and the moment Yan walked out, the people in the mansion, and even the people in the entire city, suddenly felt that the atmosphere had changed, and all of them had the sound of fighting drums over their heads, as well as the trumpets that sounded faintly in the middle.

"It's ...... war"

All thoughts and thoughts came to mind almost at the same time, and someone let out a frightened cry of "ah-" to herald the coming of war.

Woo woo - woo woo -

The horn sounded, and the majestic wolf king slowly raised his scimitar, and in front, under the banner of the Chinese army, Cao Cao, who was wearing a golden helmet and golden armor, raised the Yitian sword in the sky, and slashed down the scimitar held high.

"—Attack."

Two distinct voices gave the order at the same time.

The order to siege the city was conveyed as quickly as possible, and in the sound of the bull's horn, the terrifying sound of countless footsteps drowned out all the sounds on the field and the city walls, and the earth was shaken.

The fight began......
