Chapter 257 Retreat

Everyone is insisting, although the Jizhou army's attack is getting more and more fierce, but no one gives up.

sunset.

"Kill!"

"Ahhh!"

The siege of the Jizhou army continued, and the soldiers on the city wall had already gotten used to it. Under the orders of the officers at all levels, they began to eat in rotation.

At the same time, some of the soldiers of Lu Bu's army who had been resting under the city wall came forward to replace those who were already exhausted.

Just when everyone was preparing to continue fighting, suddenly, the sound of horns was heard in the distance.

Oh oh oh!
As the horns continued to sound, the soldiers of the Jizhou Army who were attacking the city immediately carried the ladders and retreated like a tide.

On the entire battlefield, there was only the sound of footsteps, and there were no more fierce shouts of death and screams.

In the sunset, the world seemed to become quiet.

The soldiers of the Lu Bu Army on the city wall stared blankly at the retreating soldiers of the Jizhou Army, with disbelief in their eyes.

After a long time, a voice suddenly sounded, "They have retreated!"

This sentence is like a stone falling into the lake water, immediately stirring up a thousand waves!

"Wow, they retreated!"

"Great, they retreated."

In just a split second, there were warm cheers on the city wall. Although everyone knew that this was only temporary, they were still inexplicably happy.

For them, even just one night is enough to make them cheer.

They have been persevering for so many days, and tonight, they may finally be able to sleep peacefully.

What a beautiful night without shouts and screams!

They don't ask too much, as long as they are not awakened by the sound of killing in their sleep, that is enough.

In the gatehouse.

"Marquis Wen, it's great that they have really retreated."

Chen Gong, who was always calm, even trembled in his tone after saying these words.

Lu Bu turned his head and looked at Chen Gong with dark circles under his eyes, and waved his hand, "Gongtai, you are tired too, go back and rest."

Chen Gong felt relaxed for a while, nodded, and was about to speak, turned to look at Lu Bu, and asked tentatively, "Marquis Wen, you haven't rested for a long time, take advantage of this short time to rest quickly, if you are tired If it breaks down, who will direct the battle?"

Lu Bu waved his hand, "Gongtai, you go to rest first, everyone has worked hard during this time, Benhou is going to take this opportunity to visit various city walls."

Chen Gong nodded silently, "In that case, I'll go with you."

Lu Bu hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Gongtai, if you are not tired, then go with me."

……

South City Gate.

"Haha, that's great, they retreated."

Song Xian pointed to the soldiers of the Jizhou Army who were going away, and said with a big smile, "It seems that I can have a good rest tonight."

Hou Cheng stepped forward and suddenly said with a smile, "General Song, what should we do before we rest?"

Song Xian was taken aback, and asked suspiciously, "General Hou, of course you have to rest when you are tired. Is there anything else you should do?"

Hou Cheng smiled, walked forward, and said in a low voice, "It's been a long time since I've had a drink, and my throat is smoking. Why don't you call General Wei tonight and have a few drinks, what do you think?"

"drink wine?"

Song Xian's tired eyes widened, he hesitated for a moment, and then immediately nodded, "Okay, you can contact General Wei immediately, and I will buy wine right away. Let's have a few drinks tonight and feel comfortable."

Hou Cheng patted Song Xian on the shoulder and said with a smile, "General Song, we'll be waiting for you, hurry up and come back."

Song Xian laughed, "General Hou, go ahead first, I'll be there soon."

Hou Cheng came to Chengjiao, and was about to send someone to find someone, but found that Wei Xu was already waiting in the room.

"General Hou, why did you arrive? Where did General Song go?"

"Haha."

Hou Cheng laughed and walked into the room, "General Wei and General Song are going to buy wine, and they will be here soon."

Wei Xu smiled and nodded, "General Song has also made progress now. He was too scared to drink before, but now he is more active than us."

Hou Cheng sat down and sighed, "The Jizhou Army's attack was too fierce. Everyone is already exhausted. It's hard to rest for a while. It would be good to drink some wine."

Wei Xu couldn't help sighing when Hou Cheng mentioned the battles of the past few days, "I didn't expect that the Jizhou Army didn't remember the loss of the attack. If it continues, I don't think it will take ten days, and everyone will persist." stay."

Hou Chengshen nodded sympathetically, "In the past two days, the Jizhou Army's attack has indeed been too fierce. It is said that they have lost more than 1 people."

Wei Xu turned his head to look at Hou Cheng, and sneered, "You only know that they lost more than 1 people, but do you know that we also lost more than 2000 people!"

Hou Cheng nodded, "The attack pressure on our side is smaller. Just on my side of the city wall, more than 300 people have been lost. General Wei, where is your side?"

Wei Xu waved his hand, "Although the Jizhou army is attacking the city from all directions, the pressure on the north gate is still greater in comparison. You lost more than 300 people there, and I am similar here. The direction of the west gate should be the same number. .”

Hearing this, Hou Cheng was taken aback, "General Wei, according to your statement, wouldn't it mean that more than 1000 people were lost at the North City Gate?"

Wei Xu nodded, "There must be these, otherwise, how could the Jizhou Army lose more than 1 people."

At this moment, hurried footsteps came from outside the door, and Song Xian came in with two soldiers, carrying wine and vegetables respectively.

"Haha, General Wei, it turns out you've arrived a long time ago. That's great. Everyone can have a few drinks."

Hou Cheng couldn't wait to say, "Put the wine down quickly, and drink a big bowl of him first."

After finishing speaking, Hou Cheng didn't wait for others to speak, he patted open a wine jar, poured a large bowl of wine, and drank it in big gulps.

After finishing the drink, Hou Changcheng breathed a sigh of relief, "It's comfortable, it's so comfortable."

Song Xian picked up the wine jar, poured Wei Xu a glass of wine, and said with a smile, "General Wei, come and drink a bowl first, let's satisfy your craving."

All three of them are good drinkers, and Wei Xu is no exception, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it down.

"It's delicious, it's really delicious."

The Sannin hadn't drank for a few days, and he was already so greedy that he didn't even bother to eat food at the moment, he just kept drinking.

"Everyone drink, drink to your heart's content today."

Song Xian waved his hands hastily, "It's enough for everyone to satisfy their hunger. It's better not to drink too much. If something happens, it will be bad."

Hou Chengman waved his hand indifferently, "What are you afraid of, the Jizhou army has already retreated, do you think they will come back?"
