Seeing that three hundred cavalry were sent to meet the battle, and it was not Langxi's cavalry, Hua Xiong was full of confidence, and rode his horse and shouted: "Who is coming, this general's subordinates will not kill unknown people." ”

"I am Zhu Bao, the general of the East China Sea, and I will die." After speaking, Zhu Bao jumped on his horse and shot Xiang Huaxiong.

Hua Xiong snorted coldly, slapped the horse and killed, what Zhu Bao just dared to run rampant in front of him because he was just a nobody.

The battle is not three-in-one, Hua Xiong killed Zhu Bao with a knife, the cavalry in the city saw this, his face changed greatly, Zhu Bao's martial arts are still good, I didn't expect to not support three rounds under Hua Xiong, a little panicked for a while, Hua Xiong took advantage of the situation to lead the cavalry to rush and kill for a while, and returned proudly, sweeping away the depression that had been unfavorable for many days to attack the city.

The commander of the army will kill Hua Xiong, Zhu Shu has no previous calm, with Zhu Bao here, he does not need to ask about the affairs of the army, at this critical moment, Zhu Bao died in battle, and it is also a little difficult to find the right person to take over Zhu Bao's position, at this time Zhu Shu regretted not asking Chen Gong about it.

The Lord will be killed, which is a great defeat for the morale of the defenders.

After Cao Cao learned about the war in the East China Sea, he was a little surprised in his heart, he knew very well what the Xuzhou army was, but he didn't expect a fierce general like Hua Xiong to join, but he still failed to break through the East China Sea, but lost his troops in the siege battle.

"Lord, if you don't support Chen Deng's thunderbolt, I'm afraid Hua Xiong won't do his best." Xun Youdao, for a character like Hua Xiong, he does not have any good feelings, repeatedly defected to others, a typical two-faced character, only after weakening the strength in Hua Xiong's hands, can Cao Cao better rule Xuzhou.

"The meaning of the public is that Ben Hou understands, but the thunderbolt is an important equipment of our army, and it cannot be easily shown." Cao Cao said.

"This matter is simple, the lord only needs to send a general to escort the thunderbolt to the East China Sea to help Chen Deng break through the East China Sea." Xun You said: "Lang evil Zang Ba and East China Sea Zhu Shu are united, if the East China Sea can be broken in one fell swoop, Zang Ba will definitely be afraid, so pacifying Xuzhou is just around the corner." ”

Cao Cao nodded, "Gongda's words are true, and Cao Hong was ordered to escort a hundred thunderbolts to the East China Sea. ”

"Whoa." Xun You arched his hand, with the help of hundreds of thunderbolts, it was easy to break through the East China Sea in Xun You's opinion.

Cao Cao said: "Lang Evil Zangba is also a talent, if it can be used by Benhou, another fierce general will be added to his command." ”

"Lord, my subordinates think that Zang Ba can be so strong in Langxi, it's not as simple as it seems, in the past, the Marquis of Jin had passed through Langxi, it is said that Zang Ba led the troops to block and repel for the Marquis of Jin, what is the connection between the two?" Cheng Yu guessed.

Cao Cao's heart moved, if Zang Ba and Lu Bu were really implicated, he must not let Zang Ba stay in Xuzhou, among the princes, the most feared by Cao Cao were Yuan Shao and Lu Bu, the former had a great reputation, and the latter had a strong military strength, expanding the territory, and sooner or later there would be a battle with these two.

"The order is to be carefully made and the situation of Lang evil will be closely investigated." Cao Cao said.

Cheng Yu said yes, as a strategist, he had to take precautions, although there was no clear evidence that Zang Ba was implicated with Lu Bu, but it was necessary to consider it in advance.

Cao Hong was ordered to bring a hundred thunderbolts to the East China Sea, Chen Deng and Hua Xiong were overjoyed, although they killed the main general Zhu Bao in the city, the defenders still had the strength to fight, and Zang Ba led the elite cavalry to help, and they needed to be on guard against the defenders' surprise attacks at all times.

The next day, Cao Hong ordered his soldiers to line up the thunderbolt carts outside the city, and the boulders were transported to the side of the thunderbolt carts.

The defenders of the East China Sea had never seen a Thunderbolt, but its reputation had long been spread among the army, and it was a monster that could throw a boulder onto the city wall, and even shield soldiers could not resist it under the boulder.

After a round of boulder attacks, the defenders shook, and some timid defenders directly put aside the general's order, in the face of life and death, the general's order is nothing.

A series of ladders were put on the city wall, the Xuzhou army began a fierce siege, with the help of thunderbolts, on the way to attack the city, they did not encounter much resistance, sparse arrow rain, and even some soldiers began to climb the city wall, the defenders have not yet woken up from the attack of the thunderbolts.

Fortunately, the defenders in the city were relatively numerous, and they barely withstood the siege of the Xuzhou army.

Taishou Mansion, Zhu Shu is full of sorrow, according to the development of such a situation, the East China Sea is difficult to last, he has learned the power of the thunderbolt, with the existence of the thunderbolt, it is very difficult to cause more casualties to the enemy in the siege process.

"General Zang Ba and Mr. Chen, please." Zhu Shu also realized that he had been slacking off before.

Chen Gong received Zhu Shu's invitation and said with a smile: "General, it must be Zhu Shu who feels the danger. ”

Zang Ba snorted coldly: "This Zhu Shu is also a villain, with good words when he was a general, once he has an advantage in the war, he is a different face." ”

"General, if we don't directly reject that Zhu Shu, why bother to suffer such a wretched spirit in Donghai County." Sun Guan echoed.

Chen Gong shook his head and said: "No, if the general leads the troops to leave, then Zhu Shuji is very likely to defect to the Xuzhou army, in this way, the situation of Lang Xie will be critical." ”

After the two arrived at the Taishou Mansion, they felt the eagerness between Zhu Shu's expressions.

"The war in the city was busy before, and this official was negligent, and I hope the two of you can forgive me." Zhu Shu said politely.

"Zhu Taishou is too polite, the Xuzhou army is attacking the city, and the affairs in the army are heavy, and I will be able to understand." Zang Ba hugged his fists.

Zhu Shu heard this, his face eased a lot, "Now that the Xuzhou army has a thunderbolt to attack the city wall, our army is weak, and in the long run, I am afraid that the Xuzhou army will break through, what good plan do the two have, and I hope to be able to give advice." ”

Chen Gong said: "I wish Taishou no need to be so anxious, although the thunderbolt is powerful, the strength of our army is not weak, and the enemy army will attack the city with the thunderbolt in the future, just let the cavalry in the city go out and burn the thunderbolt, then the Xuzhou army will have no advantage at all." ”

Zhu Shu frowned, "There are fierce generals like Hua Xiong in the Xuzhou army, and the elite cavalry under Hua Xiong, how can they burn the thunderbolt?" ”

"Zhu Taishou, this general can be regarded as a bit of martial arts, if Zhu Taishou is willing to trust this general, come to the Japanese general to lead the cavalry out of battle." Zang Ba stepped forward.

The eyes of the generals in the Taishou Mansion looking at Zang Ba also contained a trace of awe, to be able to stand up at such a time, it takes great courage in itself, Zhu Bao's death in battle is not a small blow to the generals in the army.

"General Zang has this ambition, and this official will hand over all the only 400 cavalry in the city to the general." Zhu Shudao, there is a lack of fierce generals in the army now, otherwise the situation in the East China Sea will not be as good as it is now.
