    After a long and unbearably cold night, the sun gradually rose over the broad horizon of the Yangtze River.

    "It's just that the humidity in the south is heavy, especially along the river bank. Therefore, the sun has already risen to three degrees, and the air is still filled with clouds and mist.

    "Why is this weather so weird? It was sunny yesterday, but today it's so foggy that I can't see anything clearly!"

    The garrison on the city was there, you and I were talking to each other, and the cool breeze blew on the city all night, and now I couldn't sleep.

    I thought that the temperature would be higher when it gets daybreak, but unexpectedly, I couldn¡¯t help complaining when the weather turned out to be like this.

    ¡°You new recruits, what can you complain about in this weather?

    Isn¡¯t this just right?  Maybe the enemy will not attack today because of the heavy fog and unable to see clearly what is going on on top of the city?

    ¡°In that case, wouldn¡¯t you new recruits just save a life and live an extra day or two?  "

    However, the recruits who just spoke were also a little unconvinced and said: "Tsk, stop pretending to be senior here!

    ??It¡¯s not like we haven¡¯t fought against Liu Ke¡¯s army before, and the other party doesn¡¯t have three heads and six arms?

    Now that our entire army is guarding the city, we might just be able to defeat Liu Ke in one fell swoop!  "

    After hearing this, the veteran shook his head. He wanted to remind them a few more words, but seeing how confident they were, he didn't say anything in the end.

    This group of new soldiers were all recruited by Liu Bei after his defeat in Hanzhong.

    Although I have fought against Liu Kejun since I came to Jingzhou, it was usually a small-scale battle.

    So even though we fought and retreated all the way until we retreated to Lexiang, we had not yet experienced a major battle and seen how powerful the enemy army was.

    Therefore, no matter what the veterans say at this time, they will never listen to them who are young and energetic.

    The recruits saw that the other party was finally speechless after hearing what they said. They immediately put on a victorious posture and were about to express a few more heroic words.

    At this moment, as the sun gradually rises, the temperature gradually rises, and with the river breeze blowing, the fog finally becomes thinner, and the view of the city gradually becomes wider.

    The recruit, who was full of heroic words and was about to express his words, inadvertently glanced outside the city, and his whole face changed instantly.

    ¡°My mouth was wide open, but in the end I didn¡¯t say the words I had planned for a long time.

    It turned out that it was not until the fog dissipated and the defenders' vision on the city was no longer restricted that they finally saw Liu Ke's army.

    I saw that starting from the position five miles outside the city and extending as far as the eye could see, they were all Liu Ke's camps.

    As the saying goes: if there are a thousand people, the whole world will reach the sky; if there are ten thousand people, the world will be boundless.

    After the number of people exceeds 10,000, the scene will become very spectacular, not to mention the camps all over the sky.

    Liu Ke¡¯s army numbered 300,000, and now they crossed the river and were stationed outside the small city of Lexiang.

    This scene was so big that all the defenders on the city were instantly stunned.

    ??Especially the recruit who was bragging just now. He has never seen such a scene before. He stammered and could no longer speak.

    Until this moment, the veteran finally said in a solemn tone: "You'er, don't be afraid, just be smart and you'll be fine!"

    The recruit nodded numbly, finally losing his previous air.

    At this moment, General Wei Yan, who was in charge of garrisoning the east gate, finally received the message from his subordinates and rushed up.

    As soon as he saw the scene in front of him, his face instantly became solemn, but then he immediately shouted and ordered all soldiers and battalions to garrison in the areas arranged yesterday.

    The defenders on the top of the city were finally awakened by the general and hurriedly took action.

    At the same time, Liu Ke finally took action.

    He had been preparing to attack for a long time, but he postponed his action because the fog had filled the air and he could not see clearly what was going on around him. He was worried that the enemy would be ambushing outside the city.

    At this moment, the fog finally dissipated, and Liu Ke had no patience anymore, so he gave an order and hundreds of thousands of troops moved together to come to Lexiang.

    In fact, as Fazheng analyzed to Liu Bei yesterday, for a small city like Lexiang, there are only so many walls that can be used for battle.

    Even if Liu Ke has hundreds of thousands of troops, it is impossible to fully deploy them, so each attack can only mobilize 40,000 to 50,000 people.

    With such a large number of attackers, the defenders in the city can naturally cope with it.  That's why he was so confident yesterday.

    But Liu Ke did the opposite,??Ke personally formulated today's battle strategy, which is to use all the soldiers and horses under his command.

    Even if the war breaks out, the tens of thousands of people under the city wall are really fighting, but Liu Ke is not only thinking about those involved in the battle.

    In his plan, in addition to attacking, his troops also acted as a psychological shock.

    When soldiers all over the sky surround the isolated city of Lexiang, the enemy's will to fight will be greatly affected.

    Even if they made adequate preparations at the beginning, when they saw the endless enemy troops and the city they originally relied on to defend turned out to be a drop in the vast sea, they would collapse instantly.

    "Your Majesty, according to your arrangements, all armies are in position. Please initiate an attack!"

    Liu Ke stood on a high place, looked around with his eyes, and finally picked up the dragon flag in his hand and waved it downwards.

    After receiving Liu Ke's order, the deafening sound of drums and horns suddenly sounded all around, and the soldiers immediately shouted loudly after hearing the sound.

    The sound was so loud that the entire city wall was shaken with dust.

    The soldiers on the city felt the sound of the city walls shaking when the enemy attacked. Their faces turned pale, and the hands holding their weapons were shaking involuntarily.

    Finally, when the defenders were shaken, Liu Ke's army approached the city wall step by step and was about to be within the range of bows and arrows.

    When Wei Yan saw this, he immediately shouted: "Archers, aim your arrows!"

    It was only at this moment that the archers finally woke up from their dreams and hurriedly bent their bows and set arrows.

    But because they were so nervous, some people even tried three or four times before they were ready.

    At this time, Liu Ke's army also had bows and arrows in their hands, ready to fire at any time.

    Almost at the same time, the generals on both sides of the offensive and defensive sides broke out at the same time: "Fire arrows!"

    However, the arrows shot from the city wall were sparse, and some even staggered to the ground after flying halfway.

    Those archers are shaken, how can they show their true strength?

    On the contrary, Liu Ke's army, armed with strong bows and crossbows, followed the order and released arrows instantly.

    At that moment, he saw countless arrows flying toward the top of the city like a dark cloud.

    After a short period of silence, there was an instantaneous scream of pain and wailing from the top of the city.

    However, this is not over yet. The first round of arrow rain has just arrived, but the second round is already brewing.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
