Lu Bu's sudden appearance shocked Zhang Zhao.
He knew very well that the other party was an unparalleled general in the world, while he was a weak civil servant.
In addition, the original soldiers and horses in the city had already been led by Zhang Ya to attack Lexiang.
The remaining people are just enough to maintain the most basic defense, and they are still capable of repelling the enemy's attack.
??So after considering it all, it seems that I am already facing a desperate situation.
Therefore, Zhang Zhao couldn't help but have the idea of ??surrendering the city.
However, as soon as such an idea came up, he was instantly extinguished by himself.
Not to mention that he now holds a high position of power in Jingzhou and is highly regarded.
If you surrender now, you will not only immediately lose all the favor in the past, but also your reputation will be ruined and you will be ridiculed by the world.
¡°It¡¯s really hard to accept that someone should be so humble just to survive.
The most important thing is that Zhang Zhao's two sons, Zhang Cheng and Zhang Xiu, all followed Sun Quan to the Zhijiang front line this time.
"If when Sun Quan returns and sees that he has surrendered the city, I am afraid that he will immediately vent his anger on his two sons.
By then, his reputation and family will be gone. Even if he lives an ignoble existence, what¡¯s the point?
So, after a fierce ideological struggle in his heart, Zhang Zhao finally came up with an idea.
I saw him standing on the top of the city, shouting unceremoniously: "Huh! Lu Bu, even though I am not talented, I, Zhang Zhao, know that force cannot be subdued.
Even if you are a million cruel people, what can you do to me? If you want to take Jiangling, just let your horse come over, but it is absolutely impossible for me, Zhang Zhao, to surrender! "
Zhang Zhao spoke very firmly, blocking the way for continued negotiations.
Once Lu Bu heard that the other party was so unquestionable, he understood what he was thinking, so he launched an attack without hesitation.
"Zhang Zhao, since you don't know good from evil, let the entire city's soldiers be buried with you! Attack with the entire army, and whoever breaks the city first will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins!"
Lu Bu's words immediately stimulated the soldiers. For the reward of a thousand gold, they all fought bravely to be the first to attack the city.
There are only two thousand defenders in Jiangling City now. If this person were to guard the four walls, there would only be five hundred people on each side.
How could these troops withstand Lu Bu's attack?
Therefore, Zhang Zhao hurriedly ordered the defenders from other directions to come to support.
But don¡¯t forget that Lu Bu¡¯s soldiers and horses are themselves cavalry. As soon as the guards over there are weak, they will immediately gallop away and change the focus of the attack.
So in this way, Zhang Zhao's defenders became more and more passive when they hit the back.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Zhang Zhao had already risked everything and gathered all the manpower available in the city on the city wall.
There are civil servants here, such as officials, officials, and officials, as well as miscellaneous people such as horsemen and cooks, and even some civilians who have followed them up the city wall.
Although these people are not capable of bending bows and shooting arrows, they are still capable of throwing rolling rocks and trees.
As Sun Quan¡¯s base camp, Jiangling definitely has enough supplies, but in fact it only lacks manpower.
Now that the manpower has been replenished, the intensity of the defense has naturally increased by several levels in an instant.
Therefore, Lu Bu did not expect that Jiangling, which he wanted to attack, would be surrounded by soldiers.
The city that was about to be captured was once again stabilized under the opponent's defense.
In the end, Lu Bu had no choice but to stop temporarily. After Gan Ning caught up, he gathered his troops and captured the city at once.
And in order to prevent the other party from transmitting information to the outside world, especially asking for help from Sun Quan.
Lu Bu arranged for a number of cavalry to take turns patrolling outside the city twelve hours a day.
Regardless of whether they are soldiers or civilians, as long as they come from Jiangling, they are immediately taken to the camp and imprisoned.
When the time comes, he will interrogate them one by one and either kill or release them, but all this will have to wait until he captures Jiangling.
Therefore, after Jiangling was blocked by Lu Bu, he instantly lost contact with the outside world.
No matter it was in the direction of Zhijiang or Lexiang, no one knew what was going on.
It wasn¡¯t until the next day that Gan Ning¡¯s army finally caught up.
When he saw the formation in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned.
But Lu Bu smiled and explained: "Don't be surprised if the hegemony arises. This Jiangling city is strong and difficult to capture quickly. AndThat Zhang Zhao actually mobilized the entire city's army and civilians to defend together.
Now I can¡¯t even capture it, so I sealed it first to avoid leaking the news.
Since you are here, then quickly attack the city with me! "
After hearing Lu Bu's explanation, Gan Ning immediately patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'll take the lead. Why don't we just compete to see who can capture this city first?"
Being so excited by Gan Ning, Lu Bu also became interested instantly.
He raised his head and smiled: "Hahahaha, Xingba, although I am not as good as you in water warfare, you can't conquer cities and territories.
"But since you want to bet, let's compare it. How about a jar of rosy mash wine?" "
"Hahaha, okay! It's a deal, you attack the southeast, I'll attack the northwest, whoever gets there first wins!"
After saying these words, Gan Ning did not hesitate and led his troops to rush in the direction he chose.
And Lu Bu naturally did not hesitate and launched an attack on both sides of the southeast.
This will be very painful for Zhang Zhao on top of the city.
Originally, all the people who could be mobilized in the city were gathered at the top of the city, so that they could withstand Lu Bu's offensive.
Who would have expected that in just one day, another enemy army would rush towards us.
Now, two large armies have surrounded the city and are about to launch a decisive battle.
In fact, in addition to these, Zhang Zhao was even more worried, that is, the arrival of these two armies was too incredible.
??Suppose the protagonist confronts Liu Ke in Zhijiang. Both sides have built their own defense lines to be airtight. How can the other side bypass their own defense lines and break into the rear?
At first it was just Lu Bu's cavalry, and he thought it was the other party taking a long detour.
But now that another infantry has arrived, the situation is a little different.
"Could it be that the army on the front line has been defeated? The lord has abandoned Jiangling and fled in other directions?" Zhang Zhao couldn't help but have many questions in his mind.
In fact, it¡¯s no wonder he didn¡¯t think too much about it, after all, these enemy troops came very strangely.
The most important thing is that after having many doubts in his heart, Zhang Zhao could no longer calm down as before, and he lost his determination to hold on.
Once the general's spirit relaxed, it naturally affected all the defenders instantly.
Gan Ning was overjoyed when he saw that the defense on the city was getting weaker and weaker.
He immediately ordered people to cover the rear with bows and arrows, and then he led a team of brave men to climb up the city wall.
The enemy army itself has few archers, and now it is suppressed by the enemy army below the city and cannot lift its head. Where there is room to stop them, Gan Ning takes the opportunity to quickly climb up the city wall. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
