The dim sky was covered with a thick layer of dark clouds, large and large dark clouds, pressing the sky very low, like a broken wall about to collapse.

Anyi City stands alone in the snowfield, the broken "Han" banner on the city wall trembling in the whistling wind, and the same broken city wall has long been stained with blood.

At the foot of the city walls, there were mountains of corpses, blood soaking almost every inch of the outside of the walls, forming a disgusting dark red swamp, with countless mutilated limbs, broken heads, and broken blades scattered across the dark red mire.

Outside the city wall, Yuan Shao's army has surrounded this place, and thousands of soldiers are brewing a new round of charge.

Outside the east gate of Anyi City, Shi Gaogan, the governor of the state, rode a tall horse, wore a helmet and armor, stood quietly on a high slope, waved the horse whip in his hand, and was actively commanding the subordinates.

But seeing thousands of Yuan soldiers gathered from all directions, all gathered in an open area outside the east gate, all of them were gearing up, and when Gao Gan gave an order, these people would rush up and launch a fierce charge towards Anyi City.

On the wall of Anyi City, Taishou Jia Kui's body had already suffered several arrow wounds, he just wrapped it casually with a bandage, but he didn't mean to leave at all, and there was a group of sturdy men in various clothes standing beside him, all of them were wounded, all of them were bloody, and their faces looked extremely tired.

The army in Hedong was small, and it was completely wiped out by the Yuan army at the beginning of the war, and these strong men who stood on the city wall and were responsible for defending the city were all spontaneously organized militia and local people.

Jia Kui has served as the Taishou of Hedong for five years. The east of the river will be managed in an orderly manner. Law and order are also very stable. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and Jia Kui himself is also deeply loved by the local people.

It is precisely because of the tenacious persistence of these people that the city of Anyi was not captured by Yuan's army, and it has persisted to this day.

The city of Anyi was well fed with food and straw, and the only thing lacking was a supply of soldiers, and young and middle-aged people spontaneously walked to the city to defend against foreign enemies, while women, the elderly, and children were responsible for housing the wounded in the city. Cooking, burying corpses and other things, in short, tens of thousands of people in the entire Anyi City are gathered together at this moment, all of them are united, swearing to follow Jia Kui to protect the family and defend the country, and vowing to live and die with Anyi City.

Jia Kui stood on the city wall and looked out of the city, but saw that Gao Gan had gathered a group of people. Ready to attack again, he immediately gave the order. Let the strong men in charge of defense be prepared to defend.

Gao Gan outside the city, has been standing in the cold wind, the body has been blown through the cold wind, he brought a total of 30,000 troops this time, starting from the Shangdang crossed Huo Taishan, led the army all the way south, successively conquered Yang County, Xiangling, Linfen, Jiangyi, Wenxi and other counties, all the way is a triumphant song, and most of the places passed are heard by the wind and descended, no effort at all.

Gao Gan thought that things would go on so smoothly, but when the army arrived at Anyi, the county town of Hedong County, they were met with stubborn resistance. For three days in a row, Gao Gan has not even climbed the tower of Anyi City until now, and thousands of people have been killed in battle, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

Seeing that the soldiers in front of him had already lined up in the phalanx, Gao Gan waved the whip in his hand, whipped a whip in the air with a "snap", pointed at Anyi City and shouted: "Attack!" ”

With the order of Gao Gan, three thousand soldiers rushed up and rushed towards Anyi City desperately, looking at it from a distance, it was dense.

"Archer prepare!" When Jia Kui saw that Yuan Jun had launched a new round of attack, he raised his hand and shouted loudly.

On the city wall, there are only hundreds of strong men armed with bows and arrows, most of them are from Orion, or have practiced bows and arrows, after all, these are the militia and ordinary people who came to defend the city spontaneously, and there are only so many people who know how to shoot arrows without formal training. After they heard Jia Kui's voice, they drew their bows and arrows one after another, put the arrows on the bowstring, and waited for them to be shot, watching the enemy troops outside the city gradually approaching the city, waiting for Jia Kui's order with full attention.

"Don't worry, stabilize me! Wait until they get closer before shooting! "Jia Kui has full command of the battle, and in the past two days, he has already learned quite a bit.

After another moment, when Jia Kui saw that the soldiers of Yuan's army were about to rush to the frozen moat, he immediately ordered: "Release the arrows!" ”

With Jia Kui's order, hundreds of archers let go of the bowstring in their hands, and the arrows on the bowstring, with the help of the explosive power of the bowstring, flew towards the Yuan soldiers who ran over.

As soon as the arrows were shot here, the archers on the other side began to draw a second arrow, skillfully drawing their bows and firing the arrows, one by one, at the enemies rushing outside the city.

Although these archers are fast, but the accuracy is not very high, and the number of people is small, it is not possible to suppress the firepower at all, and the soldiers of the Yuan army who rushed over are all experienced in battle, holding a shield, constantly blocking the arrows that come to them, two clusters of arrows are shot, but the soldiers of the Yuan army who are hit by the arrows are only about 200 people, and the army is rapidly approaching the city wall.

Soon, the soldiers of the Yuan army braved the rain of arrows to rush to the bottom of the city wall, they carried the ladder, directly set up the ladder, the agile Yuan soldiers began to climb the ladder quickly, in a delusional hope to kill the city, to win the reward of the first climb. In addition, more than 100 people pushed siege trucks to the city gate, and began to bang the city gate with a dull bang.

On the city wall, Jia Kui knew early on that these archers were of no use at all, so he prepared the things to defend the city early, moved the stones piled up on the city tower, and began to smash them. At the same time, some strong men were also responsible for toppling the ladders that had been erected, and the two armies launched a new round of bloody battles on both sides of the city wall.

Outside the city, Gao Gan was anxiously watching the battle situation, although the three thousand elite soldiers rushed to the city wall, but it was still a little difficult to attack the city.

But Gao Gan doesn't care about this, he has already given a death order, and today he will attack the city no matter what, for this. He also spared no expense. A big reward. The first person to climb the city will be rewarded with a hundred gold, and whoever can cut off Jia Kui's head will be rewarded with a thousand gold.

As the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, this sentence is not false at all, the three thousand Yuan soldiers after the heavy damage in the first two days, this time regained the courage of the uncanny. Even the hardest bones have to be gnawed down.

Yuan's attack was blocked, but he was still not discouraged, and in charge of commanding the battle was Guo Yuan, a tall man with excellent martial arts and amazing strength, who selected five hundred archers, retreated to the back of the ranks, and shot from the ground to the city wall.

After all, the officers and men of the Yuan army were all regular soldiers who had been trained. The archers were also professional, and five hundred arrows were shot behind the walls. More than three hundred people were killed at once, and dozens of them were wounded.

After Guo Yuan tasted the sweetness, he continued to shoot arrows at the city wall in this way, and the archers of the Yuan army, who had a fast rate of fire and accurate archery, shot arrows three times in a row, and were able to successfully suppress the defense on the city wall, so that those defenders did not dare to show their heads again.

In this way, Guo Yuan was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately let the archers continue to shoot, and he quickly ran to the top of the city wall, commanded the soldiers to re-erect the ladder, and took the lead himself, and was the first to step on the ladder and quickly climb to the city wall.

Guo Yuan was agile and climbed quickly, holding the ladder in one hand and the saber in the other, and in a moment, he climbed the city wall.

Who knows, as soon as Guo Yuangang showed his face, the defenders who had been hiding behind the women's wall suddenly stabbed more than a dozen spears, he was taken aback, hurriedly lowered his head, and avoided a catastrophe, it was really dangerous.

However, the other soldiers who climbed the city wall with him were not so lucky, because they couldn't dodge, and many blood holes were immediately pierced out of their bodies, and they screamed, fell backwards, and fell directly from the sky, fell heavily to the ground, and fell directly to pieces, and died with a whimper.

Guo Yuan gritted his teeth, waved the saber in his hand, and directly blocked the spear that had not been withdrawn, and then shouted violently, jumped up, and with the help of the elastic force of the ladder, he crossed the female wall and jumped directly onto the city tower.

"Whew!"

More than a dozen spears stabbed at Guo Yuan from all directions, Guo Yuan dodged as soon as he lowered his head, and at the same time rolled his body forward, waving the saber in his hand and slashing at the belly of several defenders holding spears.

"Poof!"

As soon as the knife went down, the abdomen of the three defenders immediately flowed blood, and they let go of the spears in their hands in pain, clutching their stomachs and screaming. And Guo Yuan instantly broke away from the encirclement, turned around, swung his long knife, and cut off the head of a spearman, blood gushed out, and then killed more and more bravely, and in just a moment, he killed several defender soldiers one after another.

Suddenly, Guo Yuan suddenly saw Jia Kui standing not far in front of him, his eyes lit up, a burst of indiscriminate slashing, and killed several people, forced the rest of the people, jumped forward, and arrived in front of Jia Kui, without saying a word, he slashed with a knife, and there was a great excitement on his face, thinking that if he killed Jia Kui, he would not only get a heavy reward, but also possibly make the defenders fall into a state of leaderlessness, so that the city could be breached.

Jia Kui was taken aback when he saw Guo Yuan killing him fiercely, it was too late to dodge, and he retreated again and again, but he didn't want his back to hit the pillar of the city tower all of a sudden, and said in his heart: "My life is over!" ”

At this moment's notice, a black shadow suddenly stabbed out, and a long sword forcibly stopped Guo Yuan's long knife, and the swords collided and made a buzzing sound.

Immediately afterwards, a tingling sensation came from the long knife, Guo Yuan's hand holding the handle of the knife suddenly seemed to feel like a needle was inserted, and it hurt badly, it didn't matter if he hurt it, the long knife in his hand came out of his hand and flew into the air.

Guo Yuan hadn't reacted to what had happened, but when he saw the cold and shining long sword stabbing towards him, he was taken aback and hurriedly retreated, but it was already too late, and the cold tip of the sword pierced directly into his shoulder socket, and blood flowed immediately.

With a loud "bang", Guo Yuan's chest was firmly kicked, and he was kicked by the black shadow and jumped over the female wall and flew out of the city.

"Ahh

Guo Yuan screamed, his body kept falling, and after a while, his back knocked down a soft thing with a bang, and then his body was bounced and rolled to the ground involuntarily. Moreover, the blood in his chest and abdomen was surging, and he only felt that his throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood spit out.

He turned his face sideways, and then he saw clearly that he had fallen into the pile of corpses, if it weren't for the pile of corpses blocking him below, he was afraid that he would have fallen to his death.

But Rao was like this, he was also injured a lot, his arm was broken, and there were even more pains in his chest and shoulder sockets.

At this time, on the wall of Anyi City, I saw a black shadow swimming around, with a long sword in his hand, stabbing to death the soldiers of the Yuan army who wanted to climb the city wall one after another.

When the rest of the defenders saw this, they were all encouraged, their morale was greatly boosted, and they began to counterattack frantically, and it only took a moment to repel this wave of Yuan soldiers who came to attack the city.

The Yuan army attacked the city and ended in defeat again, and Guo Yuan was also wounded and fled in a hurry with the soldiers...... (To be continued......)
