Chapter 207 The power of Zang Ba, the leader of Mount Tai!
Without further ado, Zang Ba quickly summoned 20,000 Taishan bandits, took Sun Guan and other four generals, and led the army towards Cangshan City at full speed.
At dusk, before the sun had set, Zang Ba finally led the Taishan bandits to the gates of Cangshan City!
The movement of the 20,000-strong army was still very loud, so the moment Zang Ba led the Taishan Bandits appeared on the horizon, he was instantly discovered by the defenders of Cangshan City.
"Enemy attack!"
"It's Zang Ba, the Taishan bandit!"
"Quick, close the suspension bridge and close the city gate!"
The sound of warning horns swept through the whole city instantly. Upon hearing the sound of the horns, the entire Cangshan City defenders suddenly panicked. They immediately went into battle and hurried to the city wall to prepare for the attack.
Soon, Xu Shi, who was responsible for guarding Cangshan City, finally came to the city wall with an anxious look on his face.
And when he saw the dense Taishan thieves under the city wall, Xu Shi couldn't help but gasped, and his expression suddenly changed!
Xu Shi suddenly noticed Zang Ba in front of the Taishan bandit army. A hint of anger suddenly appeared on his face, and he yelled: "Zang Ba, the former Lord worships you as the Cavalry Commander. Now that you have brought troops here, you are what for?"
Hearing this, Zang Ba sneered, raised the long knife in his hand, and replied loudly: "Isn't the meaning obvious? Xu Shi, if you know this, please hand over the money, food and luggage that Liu Bei has hoarded in the city. I miss my old friendship. Retreat immediately, otherwise..."
Zang Ba paused, a stern look appeared on his face, and said: "Otherwise, we will destroy the city and leave no one behind, young or old!"
"Zang Ba, don't even think about it!"
Xu Shi suddenly became furious and said, "When the First Master was here, I treated you well. I swear to kill you for being an unfaithful and unjust person!"
"When Tao Qian was here, I led my troops to help Tao Qian defeat the Yellow Turbans. I was only subordinate to Tao Qian, but I did not recognize Tao Qian as my master. Now that Tao Qian is dead, how can I be disloyal and unjust?"
Zang Ba sneered and said, "So, Xu Shi, are you going to fight to the end?"
"Listen to my order, and the crossbowmen are ready. If the Taishan thieves dare to attack the city, they will attack with arrows and rocks. They will kill all the thieves below the city without leaving any one behind!"
Xu Shi did not answer Zang Ba's words, but immediately turned his head and shouted an order to the defenders of Cangshan City.
Upon hearing Xu Shi's order, a group of crossbowmen in Cangshan City immediately took out arrows from their quivers, drew their bows, and with the arrows on the strings, aimed at the Taishan bandits below the city.
"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"
Seeing this scene, Zang Ba's expression suddenly became extremely cold, and he raised the long knife in his hand.
As Zang Ba raised his long sword, behind Zang Ba, 20,000 Taishan thieves wearing fur coats and fine armor immediately attacked. Each Taishan thieves were extremely fierce, like wolves and tigers, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"The whole army obeys the order and attacks the city!"
Following Zang Ba's order, a group of Taishan thieves immediately shouted loudly, shouting to kill and shaking the heaven and earth. Like a tide, they launched a charge towards Cangshan City.
"Fire the arrow!"
Xu Shi, who was on the city wall, no longer hesitated, and immediately waved his hand and gave the order.
Suddenly, all bows and crossbows were fired on the city wall, and countless arrows were fired like waterfalls at the Taishan bandits coming like a tide, and the sound of piercing the air continued to sound.
Facing the airtight arrow screen composed of arrows all over the sky, some of the Taishan thieves were pierced by the arrows and shot dead on the spot. However, more Taishan thieves took up arms and kept slashing at the incoming arrows.
The Taishan bandits under Zang Ba were extremely fierce and tough. Even when Tao Qian was there, even with the elite Danyang soldiers, they couldn't do anything to Zang Ba, let alone Xu Shi.
Even if there are 20,000 defenders in Cangshan City, facing 20,000 Taishan bandits, there is no guarantee that they will be able to defend the city. What's more, Cangshan City currently only has 4,000 troops stationed there, with a huge disparity in strength.
The sonorous sound keeps ringing!
The arrows kept being bounced away by the Taishan bandit's weapons!
The Taishan bandits were extremely brave. Facing the sky full of arrows, their charging speed did not slow down much. The distance between them and Cangshan City was constantly getting closer!
"Charge with me, and whoever enters the city first will be rewarded with a hundred golds!"
When he was only the last fifty meters away from Cangshan City, Wu Dun waved the long knife in his hand, cut an arrow that was coming towards him into two pieces, and shouted.
For the Taishan thieves, the attraction of high-ranking officials was far less than that of money. After hearing Wu Dun's words, the group of Taishan thieves suddenly became more motivated and rushed towards the city wall faster.
"Come on!"
"The first one to get there will be rewarded with a hundred gold coins!"
"Come into the city, there is tons of money and food in the city!"
Seeing that the Taishan bandits were getting closer and closer to the city wall, when the Taishan bandits were only ten meters away from the city wall, Xu Shi, who was on top of the city wall, roared without hesitation: "Roll down the boulders and smash them to death!"
Hearing Xu Shi's words, the Cangshan City defenders immediately formed groups of two, lifted the boulder together, and then with a roar, pushed the boulder down to the Taishan bandits under the city wall.
boom!
boom!
boom!
The boulders kept falling, and every time the boulders hit the ground, there would be a thunderous roar, and the ground would be dented and trembling continuously!
At the same time, the arrows did not stop. The crossbowmen on the city wall were still shooting arrows at the Taishan bandits under the city wall. Suddenly, arrows and rocks fell down, and the scene was extremely spectacular.
Under the attack of arrows and stones, the charging momentum of the Taishan thief was finally curbed to a certain extent. Taishan thief was constantly smashed into flesh by boulders, or pierced by arrows. Amidst the miserable howls, blood and flesh splattered!
"good!"
Seeing this, Xu Shi was overjoyed and immediately shouted: "Smash it with me, no one will be able to enter the city!"
Suddenly, the arrow-and-stone offensive became more intense. The Cangshan defenders on the city wall began to shoot arrows with all their strength and push down the boulders, trying to stop the Taishan bandits from outside the city.
At this moment, suddenly, a deafening roar sounded!
Xu Shi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately looked down the city. Xu Shi's pupils couldn't help but shrink!
I don't know when Zang Ba took the lead and rushed to the city. Facing the boulder that was falling on the head, Zang Ba slashed it down with his sword, splitting the boulder directly, and the gravel flew everywhere!
"Young men, attack the city!"
Zang Ba clenched the long knife in his hand and roared.
The morale of the Taishan thieves increased again. A group of Taishan thieves finally rushed under the city wall, holding the battering ram, and began to smash the towering city gate in front of them!
boom!
boom!
boom!
The roaring sound keeps ringing!
Every time there was a roar, the city gate trembled!
"not good!"
Xu Shi's eyes suddenly widened, and he immediately shouted like crazy: "Quick, the infantry and soldiers go down to the city to hold the city gate. The city gate must not be missed!"
Cangshan City has only a few soldiers, and the only thing they can rely on is the natural danger of the city. Once the city gate is breached, the only advantage will be gone.
Hearing Xu Shi's words, a group of infantry and soldiers did not hesitate, and immediately rushed down to the city, came to the city gate, and blocked the city gate with their bodies.
But at this time, many Taishan thieves had already set up ladders and started climbing towards the Cangshan City wall.
"Shoot them down!"
Xu Shi roared loudly, the sound was like thunder.
A group of Cangshan defenders also gritted their teeth and tried their best to shoot arrows at the Taishan bandits on the ladder, rolling down the boulders.
However, although Taishan thieves are constantly being knocked down on the ladders, there are many Taishan thieves, and people are constantly climbing up the ladders towards the city wall!
Finally, a Taishan thief took the lead and successfully scaled the city wall with a stone in his hand!
"Hahaha, kill!"
The Taishan thief who was the first to climb the city wall laughed loudly, raised his sword, and charged at the crossbowman on the city wall.
The crossbowman was caught off guard and was cut into two pieces by the Taishan thief, and his blood spilled into the sky!
This is just the beginning!
As the first Taishan thief successfully climbed onto the city wall, like a chain effect, more and more Taishan thief followed closely and successfully climbed onto the city wall.
The Taishan thieves were extremely brave, and they were all good at fighting. They were fierce and unstoppable. There was no comparison with the Cangshan defenders. On the city wall, countless defenders were slaughtered in an instant, and they were defeated like a mountain!
"Hold!"
Xu Shi roared, raised the heavy hammer in his hand, and smashed it at the Taishan thieves, hitting several Taishan thieves in succession until their heads were bleeding.
"Go together!"
At this time, dozens more Taishan thieves swarmed towards Xu Shi. Xu Shi's eyes glared angrily, and he smashed out with a hammer, directly deforming the heads of the two Taishan thieves!
Xu Shi did not hesitate, took a big step, dodged the swords of several Taishan thieves, turned around and struck again. The giant hammer carried a huge force and crashed down!
Immediately, a Taishan thief was smashed to pieces, blood and brains splattered, extremely tragic.
Xu Shi didn't pause for a moment, swung the giant hammer and swept across it. The giant hammer collided with the swords of three or two Taishan thieves. Only a few loud noises were heard. The next moment, the swords in the hands of several Taishan thieves were released directly!
"ah!"
Xu Shi roared loudly, his physical strength was astonishing, and he quickly smashed dozens of Taishan thieves to death, and their blood spattered the city wall!
A look of horror appeared in the eyes of all the Taishan thieves, and suddenly no Taishan thieves dared to get close!
However, facing the tide of Taishan thieves, the few Taishan thieves Xu Shi killed were still a drop in the bucket and did not help. More and more Taishan thieves climbed up the ladder!
boom!
At this moment, there was another deafening loud noise, and the entire city wall trembled!
Under the continuous bombardment of the siege troops in front of the city gate with battering rams, the towering city gate finally couldn't support it and collapsed!
"The city gate has been breached, follow me into the city!"
In front of the city gate, Zang Ba laughed loudly when he saw that the city gate was breached. He immediately pulled the reins of his horses and led a group of Taishan troops to break into the city!
Seeing the city gate collapse, Xu Shi's face suddenly turned extremely ugly. He immediately turned to the deputy general beside him and shouted: "Zang Ba is brave. If there is no command under the city wall, the morale of the army will be chaotic and it will be difficult to stop. You stay on the city wall, I will get off." The city resists the enemy!"
"good."
The deputy general nodded immediately.
Xu Shi immediately stopped hesitating and rushed down to the city, mounted his horse and ran towards the city gate.
At this time, Zang Ba was leading the Taishan bandits to kill all directions in front of the city gate. Under Zang Ba's leadership, the Taishan bandits were like tigers and entered the flock. The Xuzhou infantry was unable to resist them and was already in a rout!
"Zang Ba, I'm here to take the life of the dog!"
Seeing this scene, Xu Shi's eyes widened angrily, he shouted loudly, holding a giant hammer, he rode towards Zang Ba, his body filled with murderous intent.
"court death!"
Zang Ba looked at Xu Shi with fierce eyes. He swung the long knife in his hand and the hot blood on the blade was instantly thrown away.
Just when Zang Ba was about to mount his horse and fight Xu Shi, Wu Dun, who was beside Zang Ba, suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped Zang Ba.
"Um?"
Zang Ba was stunned and turned to look at Wu Dun.
Wu Dun looked at Xu Shi who was rushing towards him, his eyes flickered, and he said: "My lord, there is no need for such a child to be killed by my lord personally. You don't need to kill a chicken with an ox-knife. I am willing to decapitate him and offer it to my lord!"
Hearing Wu Dun's words, Zang Ba laughed loudly and said, "Okay, I'll leave Xu Shi to Annu!"
"Don't worry, my lord, I will take his head and return in a moment!"
After Wu Dun finished speaking, he clenched the long knife in his right hand, grabbed the reins with his left hand, shouted loudly, and the horse neighed instantly, carrying Wu Dun, turned into an afterimage, and flew towards Xu Shi quickly!
100 meters!
Fifty meters!
Thirty meters!
The distance between the two keeps getting closer!
When the distance between the two was less than five meters, Xu Shi roared, his eyes widened, and he swung the heavy hammer high in his hand, with fighting and killing intent reaching the extreme!
Accompanied by a roaring sound that broke through the sky, the heavy hammer carried unparalleled power, as if it could shake Mount Tai, and smashed hard at Wu Dun!
Just when the giant hammer was about to hit Wu Dun, Wu Dun finally raised the long knife in his hand and slashed out!
In an instant, a black light mixed with snow lines struck Xu Shi with lightning speed and exploded on Xu Shi's body!
Zheng! ! !
The crisp roar of steel resounded throughout the audience!
Before Xu Shi could even react, he only saw a cold light passing by, and the sharp long knife blade in Wu Dun's hand struck directly on the scales on his body!
Click!
Immediately afterwards, the sound of shattering sounded!
The strong scales began to crack quickly like a spider web under the long knife, and then shattered!
The long sword still had a lot of power, and with an unstoppable attitude, it cut deeply into Xu Shi's body, and then slashed all the way, passing through the internal organs, entering from the left and cutting out from the armor on the right!
Xu Shi didn't even catch Wu Dun's sword, but Wu Dun cut him in half with a sword!
Hot blood, mixed with minced meat, splashed into the sky!
Wu Dun slowly sheathed the knife. On the blade, blood slowly dripped down the blade.
And it was only at this moment that half of Xu Shi's body fell to the ground with a thud!
Seeing this scene, the whole place suddenly fell silent. All the Cangshan defenders felt a deep chill deep in their hearts, and a strong look of fear appeared in their eyes!
"Hahaha!"
Zang Ba was not surprised, he laughed loudly and shouted: "Young men, Xu Shi has been crowned, follow me into the city and plunder!"
After saying that, Zang Ba pulled the reins, raised his sword, and killed the Cangshan defenders in front of him!
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
A group of Taishan thieves shouted in unison, and the sound of killing was loud. A strong look of violence appeared on the faces of all Taishan thieves, and their fighting spirit was extremely high. They followed Zang Ba and charged at the Cangshan City defenders.
Xu Shi was beheaded by Wu Dun. The morale of the Cangshan defenders was extremely low. Facing the wolves and tigers of the Taishan bandits, they were unable to resist. They were suddenly defeated and began to retreat step by step!
