398, Fancheng started
"General Hu, forgive sins, forgive sins! It was also a duty ...... before, uh......"
The Liu Biao General, who greeted him at the city gate, didn't have any doubts at first, but greeted him with a smile on his face, but soon this Liu Biao General felt wrong.
At this time, Xing Daorong's face had already shown a bit of murderous intent, and when he rushed to this Liu Biao in a few steps, he slashed with an axe, "Boy, look at the axe!" ”
"Why ......, why is this ......"
This Liu Biaobu General was still a little unacceptable, and he couldn't help but shout again and again in his mouth, and his steps were also quickly retreating.
"Haha, a certain general has already surrendered the Yuzhang army, and today he was ordered to take Fancheng, boy, he will not die!"
Xing Daorong slandered Wancheng Zhang Xiu, but also to spread the false news to Xiangyang when the defeated soldiers on Fancheng's side fled back to Xiangyang, so he insisted on following Wang Yuyan's instructions, and after saying this word first, he swung an axe and smashed it again.
"Ah, close the gates! Fast... Hurry up ......"
This member Liu Biaobu knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted in his mouth, and then dodged Xing Daorong's axe, but wanted to draw the ring head knife on his waist to defend himself and counterattack.
But Xing Daorong was dodged by him twice, he was already a little annoyed, he took a step under his feet, and approached this Liu Biao General for a few minutes, and the big axe in his hand swept over, this time the speed was extremely fast, with a "woo" cracking sound, directly slashed on the ring head knife that Liu Biao had just pulled out.
As a result, together with the ring head knife, the big axe smashed into the body of this Liu Biao general, and directly knocked him to the wall of the city gate on the side.
This Liu Biao just pulled out the ring head knife at the waist, trying to resist the big axe, but Xing Daorong's strength was too great, and he slashed at his body together with the ring head knife, and now his body hit the wall of the city gate, but the sternum was concave, his mouth spit blood, and he fell to the ground softly.
"Haha! Little ones, take the city! ”
Xing Daorong looked at General Liu, who was smashed on the wall by himself, his mouth was full of blood, and he obviously didn't know what to do, he couldn't help but smile proudly in his mouth, and then shouted at the sword and shield men who rushed up behind him.
"Kill! Kill! ”
The sword and shield hands who rushed up immediately rushed towards Fancheng through the city gate tower, and rushed to the city wall of Fancheng at the first time, ensuring that the Liu Biao defenders above could not use the winch to retract the drawbridge, nor could they open the gate gate and other possible means of sealing the door.
Xing Daorong looked back again, and saw that Ling Cao had already rushed up with the follow-up soldiers and horses, so he waved the big axe of opening the mountain and rushed into Fancheng, and inevitably turned some of the Liu Biao defenders in Fancheng who still had some counterattack ideas, and directly hit the people on their backs.
Although the defenders of Fancheng had been killed by Xing Daorong, there were still some military marquis-level officers who thought they had good skills and wanted to take the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, so they rushed over to the city gate with their headquarters soldiers and horses, wanting to take the opportunity to recapture the city gate.
However, these military marquis are at most about forty or fifty armed forces, and when they encounter Xing Daorong, who has seventy-eight armed forces, they are naturally not the same enemy.
Xing Daorong stood alone in front of the north gate of Fancheng, and the big axe in his hand was like a gate, either smashing or knocking down the Marquis of Liu Biaojun, who rushed up.
Seeing that he was so brave, the Liu Biao soldiers who were originally following behind those military marquis couldn't help but be a little cowardly and didn't dare to continue to rush up.
Of course, Xing Daorong resisted Liu Biao's counterattack alone, which was also a temporary situation.
As Ling Cao led the troops to rush in, hundreds of crossbow arrows took the lead and shot up at Liu Biao's soldiers gathered here, and they shot over one or two hundred people at once.
So these Liu Biao soldiers, who still had the heart to fight back, seemed to have been shattered in courage, and turned around one by one and fled into Fancheng.
In Fancheng, there were originally only 2,000 Liu Biao's soldiers, 3,000 young and strong recruits, and then 5,000 young and strong people guarded by them, Liu Biao originally didn't expect that Zhu Wei would bypass Xiangyang and Hanshui and attack Fancheng first, so he sent nearly 10,000 guards here to actually be regarded as stationing heavy troops.
Originally, even if Fancheng was difficult to attack, it could at least resist it, so Liu Biao received the message and naturally sent reinforcements from Xiangyang.
But now Fancheng was stolen by Zhu Wei's troops, so after Liu Biao's department, who commanded the defense of Fancheng, was killed by Xing Daorong, there was actually no one in Fancheng.
In addition, some of the military marquis who dared to fight back also died, and the remaining military marquis who controlled the power of the army were just fighting separately with their subordinates and fleeing in the direction of the south gate of Fancheng, where was the idea of counterattacking.
There is also a water gate connecting to the Han River on the south gate of Fancheng, and you can take a boat directly to the water gate in the north of Xiangyang City, so they grabbed a boat on the side of Fancheng and fled directly to Xiangyang City.
However, Xing Daorong and Ling Cao, who captured the north gate of Fancheng, did not pursue Liu Biao's defenders in Fancheng at the first time, but only guarded the north gate of Fancheng, and let people wave the flag on the city gate tower, giving a signal to the follow-up Xionglu battalion soldiers who pretended to fight in the distance, so the receiving army of the Xionglu battalion in the distance suddenly rushed to Fancheng.
With the subsequent army entering Fancheng, this can be regarded as the real capture of Fancheng, an attached city located in the north of Xiangyang.
Zhu Wei's army soon entered Fancheng, and while issuing a proclamation to appease the people in Fancheng, he also searched out the remnants of Liu Biao's soldiers in Fancheng and the young and strong people gathered by Liu Biao.
This was not the time for Huairou, so Zhu Wei issued martial law to Fancheng, and then took all the prisoners into custody, and then sent troops to strictly guard the residential streets and alleys and merchant market areas in Fancheng.
As a commercial market city, Fancheng actually does not have many permanent households in the city, that is, more than 3,000 households and about 10,000 people, and more of them are merchants and visitors from all over the world.
These merchants, together with the servants and private soldiers they brought, made the population of Fancheng reach more than 100,000 at the most.
It's just that now with Zhu Wei's troops in Xiangyang, the merchants and rich families here have naturally fled into Xiangyang City, or temporarily left Fancheng, so there are some poor people left in Fancheng who guard their family business, and most of the poor people's families also belong to the young and strong people who have been recruited, so it is easy for Zhu Wei to control it.
Just as Liu Biao discovered the situation, after Zhu Wei's army entered Fancheng, it did not launch an attack on Xiangyang City at the first time, but used Fancheng as a frontier military camp to attack Xiangyang and temporarily stationed there.
Later, Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan also went to the south gate of Fancheng, looked at the situation of the water gate of Xiangyang City opposite, and discussed the tactics of attacking the Xiangyang water gate.
Although Zhu Wei had also seen the scene here through the Three Kingdoms game map before, and also made the sand table of Xiangyang City, but now that he really sees the scene here, Zhu Wei still has a new feeling.
The wide Hanshui River, the tall and thick city walls and deep city gate holes of Xiangyang City, and the thick iron gates and fences in the middle are indeed much stronger than the Qiantang County and Xiling County that were attacked before...... 10
