Summoning the best emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 296
With Ji Ling captured alive by Yue Fei, Lei Bo, Chen Lan and the remaining [-] troops were immediately in desperate situation.

On one side is Liu Xie's mighty general, and on the other side is a raging torrent that can swallow everything!

Finally, under the strong attack of the four fierce generals Yue Fei, Di Qing, Qin Qiong, and Yue Yun, they couldn't hold on any longer and put down their weapons one after another.

Standing on the high ground, Liu Xie looked at the endless mountain torrents rumbling down below, and couldn't help marveling that no matter in what era, nature has terrifying power that makes people fear.

If he hadn't sent people to break the embankment to cause the flood this time, Ji Ling's [-] army would not have been easily dealt with.

And if he couldn't deal with Ji Ling's army before dawn, he would be flanked by Chen Deng's troops, and he could only retreat slowly.

However, although the power of nature is powerful and violent, it is not completely uncontrollable, and the wisdom of human beings is also not to be underestimated.

This time, it was Guo Jia who suggested that Liu Xi take the initiative to spread the news that the army was sick and weak, which attracted Ji Ling and Chen Deng to attack at night.

Then Liu Xie asked Di Qing and Yue Fei to feign defeat one after another, making Ji Ling carelessly lead the army to the bottom of the valley.

However, Liu Xie had already set up ambushes on both sides of the valley, and even attracted Shan Hongxue Guan Erye to flood the Seventh Army with a trick.

The technique of borrowing the wind and borrowing the rain performed by Liu Xie before was just a trick to attract Ji Ling's attention, and he didn't teach him to realize that he had entered a dangerous place too early and realized that there would be an ambush.

"Hanchen, you lead an army of [-] to guard these captives. Cunxiao only has [-] soldiers and horses. Pengju, you and I will lead the troops to support them."

Liu Xie looked up, the sky was almost dawn, once Chen Deng found out the real situation of Li Cunxiao, even though Li Cunxiao was brave, Liu Xie was afraid that he would not last long.

After all, Chen Deng still has [-] elite soldiers.

On the upper floor of Xiapi City, taking advantage of the light of the sky, the heavy rain gradually stopped, and Chen Deng and Xuzhou Army officers and soldiers were finally able to see the scene outside the city clearly.

Faintly a hundred steps away, there was a heavy-backed general riding a fat yellow horse. It was Li Cunxiao, the number one fierce general under Liu Xie's command.

But beside Li Cunxiao, more than a dozen strange things were arranged in an orderly manner.

They look a bit like chariots, but there is a long and thick wooden pole on them. A large leather case is fixed with beef tendons on one end of the wooden pole, and there are some basin-sized stones piled next to it.

These stones are exactly the same as the flying stones that scared them back to the city last night!
"Catapults! Things from the Warring States period, didn't they say that they have been lost long ago? Where did Liu Xie find so many catapults?"

Chen Deng had read the classics and had extraordinary knowledge, and instantly recognized these things as the catapults that Chu State used to defeat Li Xin's 20 Qin army!
Later, it was not until Wang Jian, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, led a 60 Qin army that he successfully captured Chu.

The power of the catapult can be seen from this.

But it is precisely because of the great power of the catapult that after Qin Shihuang unified the world, he collected the soldiers of the world, gathered them in Xianyang, cast them as twelve golden men, and weakened the people of the world.

Naturally, Qin Shihuang ordered all the sharp weapons for attacking and defending the city at such a long distance, such as the catapult, and even the method of making it disappeared.

Chen Deng never dreamed that a military advisor under Liu Xie named Liu Ye would regain the method of making a catapult through a combination of chance and constant attempts.

After Liu Xie received Liu Ye's allegiance, he has only produced dozens of them in such a long time.

This time, twelve of them were secretly brought over at once, and Liu Xie planned to use them in the siege in order to reduce the casualties of soldiers.

Unexpectedly, it was used by accident, and Chen Deng and his [-] army were so frightened that they hid in Xiapi city and did not dare to go out of the city.

"Give me an order, the army will leave the city immediately, and destroy Li Cunxiao and these catapults!"

Chen Deng was very angry, once the catapult was close, it was a pile of waste.

And he was frightened by Li Cunxiao's 5000 troops and delayed his fighter plane for a whole night, and he didn't know if it was too late to meet Ji Ling now.

"Here."

The Xuzhou army quickly opened the gate, jumped out, formed a formation, and quickly killed Li Cunxiao.

"Damn, it's too late! Guan Hai, send an order to let all the soldiers take up arms and fight the enemy with me. My lord will lead troops to rescue soon. We must not let a soldier from Xuzhou pass here! "

Li Cunxiao saw that the soldiers next to him were about to use catapults to stop them. He knew that although this thing was powerful, it would be troublesome to load and launch, so he quickly ordered to his lieutenant general Guan Hai.

"Here."

After hearing his words, Guan Hai immediately ordered all Yanzhou soldiers to give up their catapults, and then took up their weapons and surrounded Li Cunxiao, watching the surging [-] Xuzhou army without any signs of fear.

"You're just a rat, let me show you how powerful our Yanzhou Army is today!"

With a loud shout, Li Cunxiao took the lead with King Yu's spear in his hand, and he rushed into Xuzhou's army in an instant.

"kill!"

The five thousand Yanzhou troops behind them were infected by the invincible spirit of their own generals, each of them turned ruthless, shouted, and rushed forward!

It was as if it was not [-] enemy troops that came to besiege them, but [-] beautiful beauties.

The Yanzhou army was in a state of momentum. Although they only had 5000 people, Chen Deng was terrified by the explosive power they displayed!

Especially under the leadership of Li Cunxiao, the unparalleled fierce general who once forced to land alone in charge of [-] yellow scarf thieves, these [-] soldiers are really like heavenly soldiers descending to earth, and they killed the so-called [-] Xuzhou elite soldiers in one fell swoop. .

"Didn't we agree that Liu Xie's army was trapped by the epidemic and its combat strength was reduced to ten percent? How could it still be so powerful?"

Chen Deng's face was ashamed. The [-] troops under his command had already been charged left and right by the troops led by Li Cunxiao. The formation was in chaos, and some soldiers were even terrified, and began to retreat and escape regardless of the general's command.

"These people are demons, they can't kill them all!"

The timid soldiers in the Xuzhou Army saw Li Cunxiao sweeping out with his sword. There were more than ten soldiers in front of him who were shocked to death by him. They were so frightened that they ran away and screamed.

"No one is allowed to retreat. The enemy has only 5000 people. We are six times their number. What are we afraid of? Anyone who retreats will be dealt with by military law."

Chen Deng became mad, pulled out his sword and shouted hysterically!

It's a pity that his threat didn't work at all. Instead, because of his loud voice, Li Cunxiao targeted him.

As soon as Li Cunxiao urged Huang Biao Tougulong, he waved Yu Wang's spear and immediately killed him!
