"Fortunately, the recovery time is not long, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

It was only five days. In such a short period of time, he did not believe that the Han army would easily attack the city.

After all, the Han army didn't know the information from Zhuti County, so how dare they attack rashly.

"In the future, anyone who dares to pick poisonous mushrooms indiscriminately will be executed without mercy."

Zhang Lun quickly agreed.

A few days ago, the soldiers were complaining that the food was so bad that they were full of rough food every day, which was hard to swallow.

It happened that when a group of soldiers were patrolling the mountains, they found many mushrooms. Seeing the bright colors, they picked them and cooked them in a big pot.

Fortunately, the amount given to each person was not large, otherwise they would all be poisoned to death.

"General Chen, don't be sullen, nothing serious happened after all."

Chen Xiaoyi let it go.

"Don't talk about it, go get busy, send more people to inquire about the news, and closely monitor the movements of the Han army."

After Zhang Lun took the order, he immediately retreated.

The time soon came to the second day.

Outside the city of Qiongdu, [-] Han troops gathered, and Zhang Gongjin had already escorted the food and supplies one step ahead...

As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move, the food and grass go first. Only by ensuring that the food and grass are safe can we fight with confidence.

At this time, Guo Xiaoke stood at the forefront of the troops on horseback.

"The whole army obeyed the order and marched towards Hanyang City. Most of the soldiers defending the city from the Sui army accidentally ate poisonous mushrooms. The defense force was weak. It was a good time for our army to attack."

"After the city is captured, rewards will be distributed according to the number of people killed. The more enemies killed, the more rewards."

When the Han soldiers heard it, their eyes were all burning.

Kill more, and earn more. When the war is over in the future, they will go back to their hometown to ask for a daughter-in-law.

"kill!"

"kill"

"kill!"

The shouts of killing rose loudly, and the morale of the soldiers was so high that it almost reached its peak.

Guo Xiaoke was very satisfied, he waved his hand and turned the horse's head.

"Army attack!"

The next moment, the [-] army marched towards Hanyang City with heavy steps.

On the side of Hanyang City, the situation of soldiers being poisoned has not eased.

But Chen Xiaoyi wasn't worried at all, after all the Han army didn't know the situation.

In this way, another day and night passed.

When the sun rose, a [-]-strong army was rapidly approaching twenty miles outside the city of Hanyang.

At this time, in the city of Hanyang.

"General Chen, something is wrong. The general of the Han army, Guo Xiaoke, has led an army of 1.6 troops and has arrived [-] miles outside the city." Hearing this news, Chen Xiaoyi panicked at the time.

"Is this news true? Are you reading it right? n

"General Chen, what I said is absolutely true. There are not only [-] soldiers and horses, but also countless siege supplies."

This time, Chen Xiaoyi had no choice but to believe it.

"The Han army didn't come early, and didn't come at night, so they came at this time."

"Could it be that they know the information about the poisoning of soldiers in Hanyang City? How is it possible? How did they know it?"

"Or is it just a coincidence?"

"This is too bad luck."

Chen Xiaoyi's face was flustered, and he thought wildly.

And now, there is no time for him to think about it, the Han army is about to approach the city.

"Quickly pass down the order, the whole army will go to the top of the city, move out all the guards' luggage, and defend the city to the death."

So far, this is the only way. No matter what, we have to stick to it for a few days, and wait for the soldier who was poisoned to recover. .

4 Chapter [-] I have to cut off my head and make a chamber pot (subscribe with support)

Outside the city of Hanyang, [-] Han soldiers approached the city.

Guo Xiaoke rode a horse in the forefront, looking at Chen Xiaoyi on the top of the wall.

"Chen Xiaoyi, why don't you quickly open the city and surrender?"

Chen Xiaoyi snorted coldly.

"Guo Xiaoke, do you want this general to surrender? Pooh, don't even think about it, just fight into the city if you have the ability."

"Stubborn guy, when I break the city, I will cut off your head to make a chamber pot."

The generals of both sides shouted for a while, but no one obeyed the other.

Guo Xiaoke is very clear that the opponent's defense is insufficient, and this is the best time to break the city.

"Everyone listens to the order and prepares to attack the city. The siege vehicles and siege towers come out together and take the ladder."

"Kill!

Following an order, a Han army rushed out immediately.

The soldiers carried a number of ladders and went straight to the wall of Hanyang City.

"Archers stand ready, shoot!

Chen Xiaoyi on the top of the wall hastily ordered.

With an order, countless arrows poured down like raindrops.

Round after round, many of the approaching Han troops were shot and killed.

"Archers cover, shoot arrows! 24"

Not to be outdone, Guo Xiaoke also asked the archers to shoot towards the top of the city.

"It's all hidden behind the city walls."

Seeing the densely packed arrows, the Sui army did not dare to stand up, and all shrank behind the wall.

But in this way, countless Han troops boarded the ladder, and several people went up to the city together to cover each other.

In a short while, at least hundreds of people boarded the city and killed many Sui soldiers.

However, the Sui army defended resolutely, and the infantry rushed forward quickly, killing all the Han troops who ascended the city.

But at this time, the siege engine and the siege tower were slowly approaching.

From the siege tower, hundreds of soldiers with swords and shields jumped out in an instant. They leaned against their backs and formed a hollow formation to fight the Sui army at the top of the city.

Because they don't have to worry about their backs, these shield soldiers, holding a shield in one hand for defense and wielding a big knife in the other, are like walking meat grinders.

In the blink of an eye, at least hundreds of Sui soldiers were killed on the spot.

"General Chen, the Han army is very powerful. It is difficult for our army to resist."

Zhang Lun ran over and said in a panic.

"Keep killing, don't back down, and defend the city."

"Yes, General."

"Break through the enemy's formation quickly, and go up with your life."

Following an order, the troops rushed forward one after another.

As for the hollow formation of the Han army, although it had a strong defense, it couldn't stop the opponent's crowd, and was quickly torn out and broken one by one.

But the Sui army also suffered at least five or six hundred casualties.

There are less than a hundred sword and shield soldiers in the Han army, and it is clear at a glance who is gaining and who is losing.

And there are still Han troops climbing up the city from the ladder, and then several people hold together and fight together.

The Sui army resolutely resisted, using kerosene and boulders to attack, and both sides were injured.

But the Sui army was ultimately the side with fewer numbers and weaker combat power.

After half a day of attack and defense, the Han army had three thousand casualties, while the Sui army had about eight thousand casualties.

At this moment, as evening approached, the morale of the Han army was still high. Hundreds of soldiers pushed the siege engines and hit the gate of Hanyang City with giant logs.

The city gate creaked and was in danger.

"General Chen, the city gate is about to be breached."

"Send people to resist quickly, and be sure to defend the city."

Immediately, hundreds of Sui troops resisted the city gate, but under the impact of the siege engine, it was still crumbling.

In addition, the morale of the Sui army was getting lower and lower, and the determination to defend was shaken.

At the top of the city, more and more Han troops entered the city.

"General Guo, our army has gradually controlled the top of the city, and the city gate is about to break through. Fan Zigai reported.

"Okay, keep suppressing, the momentum of the Sui army has collapsed, and it's time for our army to attack."

With one order, the morale of the Han army became even stronger, and they quickly occupied half of the city.

Chen Xiao felt that the general situation was over, and he was disheartened.

If the Sui army hadn't eaten poisonous mushrooms by mistake, it wouldn't be where it is now.

After less than a day of defense, Hanyang City almost fell.

Even if it can be defended desperately now, it will be breached sooner or later. At that time, the whole army will definitely be wiped out.

After some weighing, Chen Xiaoyi immediately made a decision.

"Zhang Lun, hurry to the city and gather all the troops. Let's retreat to the back door. Hanyang City is gone."

Zhang Lun nodded quickly, he had long wanted to escape.

"General Chen is wise. If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. Our army will definitely make a comeback."

Chen Xiaoyi didn't say much, leaving thousands of Sui troops behind to defend, while the rest fled quickly.

"The generals of the Sui army have fled and quickly occupied the city."

"Surrenders don't kill!"

Hearing the shout, the Sui soldiers at the top of the city hurriedly dropped their weapons and surrendered.

As for Chen Xiaoyi and others, they fled away in a hurry with more than 1 remnants and more than [-] poisoned and weak soldiers.

Without the resisting Sui army, the Han army easily broke through Hanyang City.

"General Guo, shall we lead our troops in pursuit?" Fan Zigai came over on horseback and asked.

Guo Xiaoke shook his head slightly.

"There's no need to chase them, let them run away, just send spies to find out the news."

"General Fan, you lead [-] soldiers and quickly capture the surrounding counties."

"Yes, the last general will go here."

Fan Zigai immediately ordered [-] cavalry and [-] infantry, and headed east.

As for the remaining large troops, they all settled in Hanyang City and took over the place.

Soon, Guo Xiaoke lived in the mansion temporarily.
