Chapter 165 Farewell (Part 1)

There was silence between the world, and Wang Hongyi was stunned for a moment. When he looked left and right, he saw that the personal soldiers were stunned, and some of the muscles on their faces were twitching.

Zhang Youzhi was the second time to wake up and immediately shouted: "Lord, attack, attack! If you don't break at this time, when will you wait?"

At this time, the relatives around them woke up and agreed.

But there is no need to issue an order. The Shu army, which was prepared for a hundred meters, shouted loudly, deafeningly and boiling.

All the soldiers who were already on the front line, like the surging tide, were so excited that they didn't even care about the flag and rushed forward like crazy.

For a moment, the enemy generals took advantage of the city to break out, and they shouted and killed Liantian. At the gap, the tide surged into the Shu army. In just a few minutes, a large number of Shu army poured into the city.

Almost at the same time, the Shu army beat the war drums.

A regular and rhythmic sound hits the hearts of both the enemy and our army one after another.

At this time, Sun Chang stood upright on the city wall, his face turned ashen, and suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and vowed to the sky: "Wang Hongyi, even if I die, I will turn into a ghost, the soul of Thor!"

Once the city was broken, the morale of the entire army was depressed, and even if the number of people was large, it would be useless. It was imminent that the disaster was lost.

At this time, the generals came up to support him, but Sun Chang suddenly woke up, his eyes quickly flew over more than ten relatives on the left and right, and his eyes flashed with blood. He shouted: "The city is broken, can you die with me?"

The generals agreed and decided to fight to the death.

Amid the shouts of killing, the South Gate suddenly opened. This was the place where the bombardment was originally chosen not far from the South City. When Shu soldiers poured in, they could open the city gate.

The city gate opened wide, and the surging Shu army quickly diverted and divided into two groups. The Shu army was ready to go and rushed away. A hundred people rushed into the city in a burst.

"The city is broken, if the defenders only have 10,000 or 20,000, I am afraid they will fall apart immediately, but if there are 30,000, I am afraid they will resist." Zhang Youzhi calmed down and said, reminding him: "My lord, I am afraid that I cannot pacify immediately, and there will be a fierce battle."

"Well, Sun Chang is a famous general. His reputation was still above my father before, so of course he would resist stubbornly." Wang Hongyi was not surprised.

Sun Chang was born into a civilian, young and tall, and he lifted hundreds of pounds and traveled a hundred miles a day.

Sun Chang was open-minded and generous, and was very loyal in his work. Soon he had a little prestige in the army and formed a group with him as the core.

Due to his bravery in combat, Sun Chang was promoted to the camp, but was suspicious of the commander and was in danger of his life several times.

However, Sun Chang was lucky compared to Qian Qingfu. In a battle, the commander was defeated and died of an arrow. Sun Chang took the opportunity to control the remaining army.

The prefect at that time had to recognize his status and make him the commander.

After becoming the commander, Sun Chang fought many times and made great achievements. Therefore, after the death of the prefect, he was elected as the governor and became the governor. He had 17,000 people and later annexed three counties.

If it weren't for the long time from soldiers to officers, and if the court had not had the strength at that time, it would be impossible for Sun Chang to swallow Jingzhou.

But even so, its own quality and talent cannot be erased.

Although the city is broken with gunpowder, he will definitely resist fiercely, and even Wang Hongyi is mentally prepared for this.

Sure enough, although the army continued to enter, it soon encountered fierce resistance.

"Reported, the enemy's force did not surrender, and many archers resisted in the alley and tower, and many soldiers were injured and killed." Wang Hongyi heard the news and entered the city under the heavy protection of his personal guards.

There are tall buildings on the city, which can be seen from afar, you can look outside the city or inside the city.

As I went upstairs and looked away, I saw a large number of Shu troops pouring into Xiangyang City like a tide.

Listening on the city wall, shouting and killing sounded even more throughout the world.

The people in the city have long closed their doors and have a cellar at home, and the whole family has hidden inside.

At this time, the fear in the hearts of ordinary people is indescribable.

Wang Hongyi watched the constant fighting below, listened to the news that his personal soldiers kept sending back to the city, and commanded the overall situation. Although he was happy, it was not yet time for the dust to settle down.

There were many houses and strong buildings in the city, and there were enemy resistances. The Shu soldiers were unable to get out in a hurry.

Wang Hongyi observed for a long time and ordered: "These strongholds were difficult to get off. The small speculative stones and the remaining Tao Lei were bombarded and attacked to break them!"

The personal soldiers immediately agreed loudly and went out to pass the order.

Soon, the small trencher was dragged to various places and was swaying from the enemy's bow and arrow shooting range.

Seeing this, the enemy was pale but helpless. Some smart ones surrendered immediately and were able to avoid death. Those who resisted to the end saw the small catapult on the left and right, and some commanders marked the distance of the ruler and shouted: "String!"

Several sergeants pushed the spokes, pulled the string arms full, and calibrated them again.

Everything is done, and the order is: "Let it go!"

Several roars broke through the air, and Tao Lei fell. With a "boom", the enemy stronghold exploded, and it suddenly became chaotic.

"Kill, kill!" The infantry behind him was overjoyed and shouted.

In a moment, dozens of thick smoke rose in the city, and flames were hidden. Within a radius of ten miles, there were sounds of killing everywhere. Even with a catapult, the street fighting was still quite fierce.

Wang Hongyi was very calm about this. At this time, there were at least tens of thousands of people rushing into Xiangyang City. No matter how fierce the street battle was, it would be impossible to save the overall situation and could train troops.

You should know that the 50,000 Shu army is not considered new recruits, but it is still a bit far from Wang Hongyi's request.

The Shu army will obtain qualified soldiers through renewal camps every year. When they arrive at the army, they will have to undergo strict training. However, these are not considered elite soldiers. The way to increase elite soldiers quickly is to use war to support the war!

The losses in the battle are a problem that cannot be ignored. If Wang Hongyi wants to compete for the world, he must have a strong and numerous elite soldiers. The only way to do it is to strengthen training on the one hand, and to continue to invest in the battlefield to train soldiers to become elite soldiers.

Soldiers who have been on the battlefield once are stronger than soldiers who have never seen blood.

Of course, Wang Hongyi knew that what was in front of him was a fierce battle. There would be no fewer soldiers who rushed in, but he would not be in charge of the soldiers.

Now that victory is in control, the level of street fighting is actually close to perfection, reducing casualties and not lower than the battlefield, so that soldiers are fully trained.

"Even if there is any loss, it is acceptable." Wang Hongyi thought.

"After capturing Xiangyang, the Gengzu camps in the second part of Shangyong New City almost trained the recruits." Thinking of the current 50,000 Shu army, Wang Hongyi sighed softly: "Even if there is any loss, our army can be expanded to 70,000, and the number of this army is almost the same."

"Lord, General He sent someone to send back the news. The east gate has been occupied by our army. Now half of the city has been controlled and street fighting continues." Zhang Youzhi's voice sounded aside, reading the report.

"I'm afraid I'll finish the night!" Wang Hongyi looked at the sky and said sighing.

I don’t know why the lord suddenly sighed, but Zhang Youzhi turned his head strangely and looked at Wang Hongyi, but he didn’t see anything from Wang Hongyi’s face. Zhang Youzhi’s attention had to be put on the street fighting again.

After a night of fighting, the sky gradually broke through dawn.

The light green sky is inlaid with several remaining stars. At this time, the sky is slightly exposed, and the clouds are gathering, as if they are soaked in blood, showing redness.

"Master, wipe your face!" At this time, the captain of the personal soldiers stepped forward, brought the basin, wrung it out with a towel and handed it over.

Wang Hongyi took a nap for a while, then got up and wiped it. Someone came in from below, holding a large plate in his hand, and there were three large bowls of porridge in the plate.

Wang Hongyi couldn't help but smile: "The porridge is good, it's hard for you to think of it. Zhang Qing, let's use it together!"

"Mr. Xie, the city is generally flat, it is the Jiedu Mansion. It is built like the inner city and has not yet been captured."

It's actually the inner city.

Xiangyang City is divided into two cities: outside, inside and outside.

The outer city lives with people and merchants, the inner city is the office of officials and the territory of the commander. It covers a small area, but it is like a city in the city.

Of course, this inner city, which was built after Sun Chang took office, is naturally far less defensive than the outer city walls.

"I know, I just want to fight with the trapped beast." Wang Hongyi smiled and held the bowl, neither cold nor hot. He took a sip, stretched out his chopsticks and ate the side dishes.

Seeing this, Zhang Youzhi smiled slightly and used it only.

After drinking, everyone was shocked and received new news.

Wang Hongyi walked in a walk: "Have all the interrogation been clear? Sun Chang sent five people out of the city for help?"

The Thirteenth Session Baihu said: "Yes, lord, the interrogation has been clear. Sun Chang sent five people in a row this time, each of whom brought a letter from him to different places for help, and he still wanted to resist stubbornly."

"Have you asked about the information in the inner city?" Wang Hongyi didn't care. He was just a delusion to ask for help, so he asked at this time.

Of course, he knew that some large cities would be divided into internal and external cities. The outer city of Xiangyang City was too strong, which made him feel a little anxious about the defense of the inner city.

The hundreds of households in the Thirteenth Division said the information they received: "The inner city is surrounded by open land, with no residential houses, and even the surrounding trees have been cleared. The inner walls are also solid, and it is difficult to get out in a hurry. Sun Chang is among them, and there are still 2,000 soldiers!"

Although this situation is considered solid, it is not special for the Shu army. As long as all the defenders in the outer city are removed, they can just use a catapult to directly bombard the inner city wall.

"The outer city has been cleaned up?" Wang Hongyi asked again.

"Lord, there are sporadic resistance."

"Yeah, clean it up and repay the will of my own people!" Even if there are sporadic resistance, hiding in the corner and shooting cold arrows is very dangerous. Wang Hongyi doesn't have to hurry up.

"No!" After the personal soldiers sent orders, a large number of Shu troops rushed into Xiangyang City and began to clean up every household. Every time they advanced for a distance, there were indeed sporadic resistance, and the killing continued.

At noon, a report finally came over: "Report, the city has been cleared."
