Chapter 446: Dingqing Prefecture (1)

Seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's troops approaching the city wall, Yu was shocked. He hurriedly rushed to lead his troops to rescue his subordinates in the east of the city: "Stop, stop me, no one is allowed to go to the east of the city, and stay here for me to defend the city."

When his subordinates heard Yu Ze's order, they said with some embarrassment: "General, General Gongsun sent someone to help us reinforce the east of the city. If we don't go, will he punish us for disobeying the military order?"

"I'm afraid he will do something!" Yu Ze glared at his subordinates and said, "Didn't you see Guan Yu, Zhang Fei's troops want to attack the city? Go and tell General Gongsun's messenger, just say that we are also attacked and cannot draw people to support them, so that they can find a way to defend the city by themselves."

After Yu Ze finished speaking, he carefully reminded him: "General, we and General Chen have enemy troops in the areas. If we don't send troops to reinforce the east of the city, and General Chen sends troops, it may be difficult to explain, right?"

The subordinates reminded Yu Ze that if he used the excuse of the enemy's attack on the city and did not send people to reinforce the east of the city; Chen Jiang, who was also attacked by the enemy, sent troops to rescue him. After repelling the attack of the Jizhou army, it would be difficult for him to explain in front of Gongsun Fan.

Thinking of this, Yu Ze quickly said to his subordinates: "Send someone to inform General Chen Jiang immediately, don't send troops to support the east of the city, and let Zhang Ji and the others fight to the death with the Jizhou army."

Before Yu Ze's subordinates left, Chen Jiang sent a confidant first. Yu Ze knew Chen Jiang's confidant. As soon as he saw him coming, he immediately asked impatiently: "Your general asked you to come here, do you have any advice?"

The confidant walked quickly to Yuze, looked left and right, looking at him, looking at him, and said carelessly: "Don't worry, I'm surrounded by my confidants. Just say whatever you want, and you will never miss any news."

After hearing Yu Ze say this, Chen Jiang's confidant felt relieved. He bowed to Yu Ze and said, "Report to General Yu, my general ordered the villain to come, just to tell the general that there is no need to send troops to reinforce the east of the city. If General Gongsun pursued it later, it would be said that the area we were defending was also attacked by the Jizhou army, and we would be safe."

"That's great, this is really great." Yu Ze learned that Chen Jiang's thoughts coincided with him, so he was overjoyed. He quickly called his troops and told him: "Go and tell General Gongsun's messenger, just say that the south and west of the city were also attacked by the Jizhou army, and it is impossible to draw troops to reinforce them."

Just when Chen Jiang and Yu discussed not to send troops to rescue the east of the city, the offensive and defensive war in the east of the city had reached a heightened level. In order not to allow Dian Wei to occupy the city wall, Zhang Ji transferred all the troops he could use to the city wall, and part of them helped the soldiers on the original city wall to throw wooden rocks under the city to prevent the Jizhou army from entering the city; part of them was used to besiege Dian Wei, trying to close the gap he opened.

Dian Wei danced the iron halberd in his hand like a windmill, fighting with the Youzhou soldiers rushing up, trying his best to prevent them from rushing to the edge of the squadron and sealing the gap he opened to protect more Jizhou soldiers from climbing the city wall.

Han Zhan and Zhao Yun were two arrows away from the city wall. Looking at the rolling wood stones thrown from the city wall, they smashed the bamboo ladders one by one, smashing the soldiers on the ladder into blood and blood. Seeing his subordinates' heavy casualties, Han Zhan couldn't help frowning. He thought to himself that if the Mingjin withdraws the troops at this time, it would certainly reduce the casualties of the troops, but if he wants to seize this city, such a tragic siege battle must continue. But if the troops are not withdrawn, the corpses of soldiers who fall under the rolling wood stones and bows will pile up higher and higher under the city wall.

Just when he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard Zhao Yun say to himself: "Second brother, look quickly. Ziman was besieged by Youzhou soldiers on the city wall."

Han Zhan looked in the direction of Zhao Yun's finger and saw a military general holding a double halberd, besieged by groups of Youzhou soldiers on the city wall. Although it was too far apart and could not see the other party's appearance, Han Zhan could still recognize the man as Dian Wei at a glance from his figure and the weapons he used in his hand.

Dian Wei was almost alone on the city wall at this moment. Many of the soldiers who climbed up the city wall from the ladder had just raised their weapons and were stabbed to death by Youzhou soldiers on the city wall with spears, or shot them into hedgehogs. Even Dian Wei, who was extremely brave, had seven or eight arrows inserted on his body. Fortunately, he was wearing good armor, which offset a lot of momentum when the bow and arrow shot him. Although he had several arrows inserted on his body, his injuries were not serious.

When Han Zhan saw Dian Wei being besieged, he felt anxious. Although he knew that Dian Wei was superb in martial arts, he could not beat four hands with two fists. Under the siege of so many soldiers, Dian Wei would sooner or later be in danger of his life. He quickly turned his head to Zhao Yun and said, "Brother, attack the city with all his strength immediately. It is good to take down the city. Even if he can't, he must escape unscathed."

"The soldiers suffered a lot of casualties." Guo Jia, who did not speak, frowned and said to Han Zhan when he saw the fierce offensive and defensive battle: "Lord, why not let us stop the army for the time being, how about fighting again next day?"

"No, you can't beat the gold." As soon as Guo Jia finished speaking, Han Zhan said firmly: "If the fight is brought down at this moment, so many soldiers will die in vain and must continue to fight."

Seeing that Zhao Yun was about to dispatch troops, Han Zhan hurriedly told him: "Brother, please transfer more archers to come forward, and let them use bows and arrows to suppress the defenders at the city and cover the infantry to attack the city. In addition, immediately send someone to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to send orders to change from feint attack to main attack, so that Gongsun Fan could not draw troops from these two directions to reinforce the east of the city."

"Abide by the order!" Zhao Yun agreed, and as Han Zhan ordered, he began to dispatch troops and generals to reinforce Dian Wei at the top of the city. At the same time, he also sent messengers to the south and west of the city respectively. He ordered Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to move from feint attacks to the formal attack to restrain the defenders in the city and prevent them from reinforcement to the east of the city.

Looking at Dian Wei who was fighting against the Youzhou Army alone at the top of the city, Han Zhan couldn't help but sweat. He silently muttered in his heart: "Ziman, I have all the troops launched their attacks with all their might. I will be able to help you soon. You must withstand it."
