Summoning the best emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 582
The thick and majestic black smoke billowed from Guantao City. On the four gate walls, Yuan Jun's general flags were scattered everywhere on the ground, soaked and polluted by the steaming blood. Broken arrows and scrap armor piled up together.

This battle between the two armies on the city wall was more cruel and bloody than imagined.

Under the leadership of Li Cunxiao, Su Lie, Tai Shici and other generals, the Yanzhou army fought more and more bravely. There was no living room in the place where the long spears swept across. He had no courage, so he could only retreat steadily under the leadership of generals such as Jiao Chu, Lu Weihuang, and Sui Yuanjin.

In a short time, Li Cunxiao and others had completely taken down the city wall of the four gates. After Yuan Jun lost the advantage of the city wall, it was even more difficult to continue fighting with the mighty Yanzhou army. Jiao Touch and the others did not hesitate at all, and directly led the troops Withdrew to the city.

"General Cun Xiao, wait a minute. Yuan Jun seems to be invincible and retreating, but it is not difficult to find that they retreated without chaos. When they fled, they did not abandon their weapons and armor. There must be fraud!"

Su Lie looked at Li Cunxiao, whose eyes were scarlet, who was about to lead the soldiers to continue chasing him, and hurriedly stopped him.

Yuan Jun's defeat this time is indeed a bit strange. They have a hundred thousand well-trained soldiers and horses. At least [-] laborers can be temporarily mobilized from a large city like Guantao, which is definitely more than enough to defend the city.

Therefore, even if the Yanzhou army has strong generals like Li Cunxiao and Tai Shici, if Yuan Jun is determined to stick to it, he will definitely be able to stick to it for several months.

The uneasiness in Su Lie's heart became more and more intense. When he looked up, there were dark clouds and the sky was gloomy. He suddenly felt that the tall city walls around him were like a solid fence, and they were a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, being kept in captivity and waiting to be slaughtered.

When Li Cunxiao heard Su Lie's words, he immediately stopped, groaned for a while, and then laughed loudly: "Hmph, don't say that Yuan Jun is desperate and has nothing to do now, it's just a fraud, with me, Li Cunxiao, afraid of what he will do! "

Li Cunxiao's rhetoric is not blind arrogance, he does have the ability to enter seven out of ten thousand troops.

The dignified look on Su Lie's face did not ease in the slightest because of this, although Li Cunxiao was capable, it was hard to say for the tens of thousands of Yanzhou soldiers.

"General Cunxiao, Dingfang, fortunately you are here too!"

At this moment, a rather excited voice came from the west.

Su Lie and Li Cunxiao searched for the sound, but it was Tai Shici who led the army from the east gate and rushed over.

Next to him was a stately general, Lu Qian who was in charge of the feint attack at Ximen.

Tai Shici, like Su Lie, realized very early on that Yuan Jun's abandonment of the city wall seemed a bit deliberate and sudden, as if he was deliberately waiting for something to appear as a signal to retreat.

After he led the army into Guantao City, this feeling of uneasiness became more intense, so he didn't dare to rush to chase the fleeing Yuan Jun, but immediately rushed to the west gate to meet Lu Qian, and led the troops to the north with him. The door ran into Li Cunxiao and Su Lie.

"Ziyi also noticed something was wrong?"

As soon as Su Lie heard Tai Shici's words, he immediately knew that Tai Shici must have realized that Yuan Jun's matter was not simple just like him.

Tai Shici immediately walked over with big strides, nodded affirmatively: "The terrain in the city is complex, Yuan Jun must have ambushed a long time ago, and now our army is well organized, so it should be fine."

Yu Jin, who was in charge of feinting to attack the east gate, had already led his troops to attack the top of the city.

However, when he was about to lead the troops in pursuit, he suddenly remembered Li Jing's instructions before the battle, telling him that he didn't have to go to the battle himself, as long as he guarded the east gate well.

Therefore, Yu Jin resisted the temptation of military achievements, led his troops back to the east gate, and stationed the army outside the city to take precautions.

Lu Qian had originally taken orders with Yu Jin, but he was young and energetic, and when the battle started, his blood surged. He didn't remember Li Jing's orders, so he rushed in.

"Hahaha, big brother, who do you think is the most ridiculous thing in this world?"

Suddenly, a young and unruly laughter suddenly came to mind, like an echo, echoing in the ears of Yanzhou Army.

"Third brother, in my opinion, it's the most ridiculous thing to be a person who is in the face of death and doesn't know it.

The voice that responded to him was quite honest, but the undisguised complacency and ridicule in the tone was even more than the previous one.

Looking in the direction where the sound came from, I saw Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang riding white horses from the city, leading Yuan Jun who could not see how many there were, coming slowly.

Yuan Jun beside them was no longer the vulnerable remnants of Jiao Chu, Lu Weihuang and the others before, and the one standing at the front was Zhang Yun, the euphorbia soldier known as the first soldier in Hebei.

On the street not far away, billowing dust could still be seen rising, and the excited neighing of war horses could be heard endlessly. Su Lie and the others could already conclude that there should be the Youzhou cavalry led by Tian Yu, the Yanyun cavalry!

Everyone's expressions became very dignified, even Li Cunxiao, who had spoken loudly before, became serious.

Yuan Jun gathered more and more, it seemed that the streets and alleys were full of their soldiers and horses, and soon, even Jiao Chu and Lu Weihuang and other generals led the deserters and surrounded them.

After a while, the Yanzhou army was surrounded by Yuan Jun.

In front, there are Zhang He's euphorbia soldiers and Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang's more than [-] soldiers and horses. Behind, there is a tall and strong city wall, and the only exit-the city gate was firmly blocked by Yuan Jun while defending the city.

As Yuan Tan said earlier, the current Yanzhou army has fallen into an unprecedented desperate situation.

Even with a strong general like Li Cunxiao, it would be too difficult for the Yanzhou Army to defeat the Euphorbia warriors and Yanyun Iron Cavalry who had been recharging their energy and had been prepared for a long time.

"I understand. Yuan Jun deliberately retreated earlier, just to show his weakness to the enemy. He lured us all into the city, and then used the army and the city wall to trap us here alive!"

Li Cunxiao slapped his head suddenly, and said suddenly.

Su Lie and Tai Shici next to him had a bitter smile on their faces when they heard this. They had already realized that they didn't know whether to smile or not.

"It's useless to talk too much. After killing these Yanzhou soldiers, I believe that my father's side has already done it, and Liu Xie's son is captured alive!"

Yuan Shang seemed a little impatient, and raised his head arrogantly. While talking to Yuan Tan, he looked at Zhang He and ordered the Euphorbia soldiers to start attacking.

"what?"

After hearing Yuan Shang's words, Su Lie and the others felt as if struck by lightning, their expressions changed drastically in shock, and they were even a little confused.

They knew that Liu Xie only had [-] soldiers and horses by his side. If Yuan Shao was really there as Yuan Shang said, Liu Xie's safety would be really difficult to say.
