Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Sincerity of Honor

"Bang! Rumble! ”

A fire oil tank exploded at the head of Yecheng City, just beside Xun Rong, and a quick Shen clan private soldier knocked Shen Rong down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before Xianrong could react, he heard the man's strange scream, and when Xianrong was helped up by his henchmen, he saw that the private soldier who threw himself down was covered in fire, as if he had become a burning man.

If he hadn't knocked himself down, then this burning man would have been himself.

"Lieutenant be careful, get down quickly."

Xianrong was still stunned by the tragic situation of the person being burned just now, and suddenly felt a strong attack, pressing him to death behind the battlements, and then Xianrong felt a loud noise from the battlements, and a huge shaking smashed him to the ground, fortunately, he was caught by the veteran, and his head did not have a close contact with the ground.

However, the veteran was not so lucky, and he had a close contact with the ground, which made the veteran squeeze his eyes, and his painful expression was self-evident.

"What kind of siege machine is this?"

It's not that Xianrong hasn't experienced siege warfare, since he was a child in Wubao, he experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the siege of the Black Mountain Thieves, but he was not as strong as he is now.

"Captain, lieutenant?"

Xian Rong only felt that his ears were buzzing, and the soldier could only hear his voice when he opened his mouth, and it took a long time to gradually hear the faint voice of the soldier?

Xian Rong had to say: "Be louder, why can't I hear it?"

Of course, Xingrong didn't know that this was the effect of the loud noise that occurred when the boulder came into contact with the city wall just now.

The veterans were concerned about the chaos and forgot about the sequelae.

"Captain, are you better?"

The soldier asked.

As soon as Xian Rong wanted to nod, he saw a canister of fire oil smashed straight into the man's back.

Boom! Rumble!

The oil tank shattered at the touch, the oil splashed everywhere, and the fire instantly enveloped the soldier.

Because the soldiers faced the honor, and the honors were not splashed with the oil, the soldiers who were facing away from them were not so lucky, and they were contaminated with the oil, and then burned by the fire.

The soldiers, who had a slightly smaller fire, were wrapped in blankets by their comrades and rolled on the ground to extinguish them.

As for the soldier who was covered in fire, he was stabbed to death by an old soldier.

Xian Rong looked at the soldiers who were gradually burned to ashes by the fire oil and were silent for a long time, the war was really cruel, although there were not as many people who died as there were in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but the tragic situation of the dead people became more and more serious.

What you can block, you can really block.

A voice echoed in Xian Rong's mind.

The Jin army's catapults attacked for half an hour, and then countless arrows shot up into the sky.

The old soldier hurriedly shouted: "Quick, get down quickly, check the bow and arrow around you, and the soldier who does not have a bow and arrow check the shield, knife, and radius hook around you."

Xianrong also subconsciously checked the weapons around him.

"Shoot the arrows!"

When the Jin army brigade slowly marched towards Yecheng after various siege equipment such as nest cars, building cars, and Mengches, Sima of the city gate, who had been accustomed to the siege methods of the Jin army, shouted loudly.

Xian Rong also followed the command of archery, and the city was densely packed with Jin troops, or Jin army siege equipment, and there was no need to aim at all, so the archery skills that had been practiced for many years were not needed at all.

Shooting arrows to the trial of Rong's arms numb, the Jin army's various siege equipment seems to have arrived under the city, the battering ram arrived at the city gate under the cover of the shield car, the huge iron-clad city gate was crumbling under the attack of the battering ram, but the city gate was firmly blocked in front of the Jin army.

When the Jin army entered the city wall along the huge nest car and building car, Xian Rong subconsciously thought that Yecheng could not be defended for long, but when the Yuan army resisted without fear of death, the Jin army gradually drove down, and some Yuan Jun even hugged the Jin army and fell down the city together, and deeply realized that Yecheng might not be able to break for a while.

It's getting darker, especially in November.

The Jin army carried out a total of two waves of attacks, but it caused thousands of casualties to the Yuan army, and the defending side has always been the side with smaller casualties, even if it is calculated with twice the casualties, the casualties of the Jin army in this month are probably not less than tens of thousands, but Zhang Fei, Zhang Yan, and Zhang Liao add up to only sixty or seventy thousand.

It can be seen that there are 10,000 or 20,000 people in the Zhang Liao Department who are besieging the city today, where did the Jin army get so many soldiers, if it is said that it is a soldier recruited on the spot, then the Jin army's training is too powerful!

The only thing that can be explained is that the Jin army did not have so many casualties, and the casualties of the defending side were greater than those of the besieging side, which made Xianrong feel incredible.

"Childe, the patriarch is invited."

Xian Rong had just finished eating a large piece of Hu Cake and was about to drink some hot soup, when suddenly a soldier in clean armor stepped forward.

Xingrong only glanced at the ornate armor on his body, and knew that this was a person working in the rear.

Although the Jin army was very eager to capture Yecheng, but did not attack Yecheng, it was not that Zhang Fei did not want to, but the Jin army was strong enough to teach the ideas of the soldiers, they were all Han people, their duty as soldiers was to protect the people of the Han Dynasty, in order to let the people of the Han Dynasty in the world live a carefree life under the rule of the King of Jin, which was one of the factors for the morale of the Jin army.

After experiencing the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the soldiers in the bitter cold land of the north who had experienced Dong Zhuo's riots cherished the peaceful days brought to them by Liu Bei even more, and it was also their honor to save more people from the misery of the warlords' wars.

The massacre of the city not only did not improve their morale, but made them resist.

Yecheng, the court.

Xianrong entered the east courtyard of the mansion covered in blood, and the patriarch lived here.

The patriarch Shen Wu did not come to pick him up in person, but sent his son to meet him at the door, and his son frowned a little when he saw that Shen Rong was covered in blood, but he quickly got used to it.

Xianwu was not as mentally retarded as his son, and he did not shy away from grabbing Xianrong and said, "Ah Rong! It's a good job, you became the captain of Cambodia so soon, it seems that Yuan Shang trusts you very much! Come, come, the old man will introduce you to a few friends. ”

Shen Wu said and pulled Xun Rong closer to the study, and there were several famous clan patriarchs in Yecheng drinking tea in the study, and they were instantly startled when they saw Shen Rong, and subconsciously wanted to escape.

Judging the martial arts, this old puppet really didn't have a good heart.

Seeing this, Xianwu smiled, and hurriedly stepped forward to reassure: "Don't panic, Ah Rong is not here to arrest you, but to cooperate with us."

After hearing this, Xian Rong realized that Shen Wu had long been anti-Yuan Shang, and if it weren't for the fact that he came to find Shen Wu, he would probably be sold by Shen Wu.

One of them was a patriarch and said: "He judged Rong to be Yuan Shang's confidant, saying that he would oppose Yuan Shang, who would believe it?"

Xian Rong raised his eyes and found that it was Zhang Nanzhi's father, Zhang Ming, who was the character of Ziqian.

Zhang Nan fought and died with the Jin army, which made Zhang Ming very afraid of the Jin army, but after the Jin army attacked his hometown, he did not go on a killing spree, which made Zhang Ming a loyal Jin faction.

"Hmph, isn't it enough to prove the sincerity of a certain person who came alone today, not with a large army?"

Xian Rong looked at the people.
