Knock knock!

The deafening sound of drums, like raindrops, shook the ears of every soldier.

Above Wuchang, there is already a scene of fighting, whether it is above or below the city, it has already been a mess.

The sound of weapons clashing, the screams of soldiers dying of death, beat everyone's heart fiercely.

Although he had expected that Zhou Yu was about to launch a general attack, Huang Zhong never expected that this general attack would come so quickly.

This morning, Zhou Yu's army once again approached the city.

Unlike before, this time Zhou Yu's army did not scold, and it was a tidal offensive as soon as it came up.

At this time, the head of Wuchang City was full of long ladders, and the Jiangdong Army, which was not afraid of death, continued to climb up to the head of the city along the ladders, constantly impacting the defense line of the Jiangxia army.

This kind of attack was too fierce, so that the Zhou army had the advantage, and Huang Zhong also relied on Wuchang City to withstand Zhou Yu's onslaught.

Zhou Yu's 15,000 soldiers and horses were attacking from all sides at the moment, attacking the four gates of Wuchang City at the same time.

Huang Zhong knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for 15,000 soldiers and horses to attack the four city gates at the same time, so there must be feints and actual attacks.

But at this time, the battle situation on all sides of Wuchang City was very fierce, and I couldn't guess which side was the main attack point.

If there is a city gate that cannot resist, the feint attack will also become a real attack and become a breakthrough for the Zhou army.

Fortunately, there are more than 10,000 soldiers in Wuchang City, and more than 2,000 people in each city, which can withstand the offensive of the Zhou army for the time being.

It's just that Huang Zhong is worried that if he continues like this, Wuchang City will probably not be able to hold it.

So what he has to do now is to boost the morale of the soldiers as much as possible and drag it out until the moment Liu Jue arrives.

If Wuchang City is lost, the Jiangdong army will drive straight into Jiangxia counties and plunder, and then your parents, wives and children will become their prisoners, do you want to see such a scene?" Huang Zhong raised his big knife and shouted again and again.

In the past, when the Jiangdong Army attacked Jiangxia, it did do the slaughter of the city, but that was an order from Sun Quan, and Zhou Yu generally would not do this kind of thing.

But how do these soldiers know?

Among them, there are many who have lost their families because of this, and when they heard Huang Zhong's words at this moment, the hatred and fear of Jiangdong in their hearts instantly exploded.

"Kill, kill, kill!".

"Kill all those Jiangdong people!".

"Drive the Jiangdong people out of Jiangxia!".

With the experience of Sun Quan's slaughter of the city, these red-eyed soldiers, after hearing Huang Zhong's shout, suddenly seemed to be beaten with chicken blood.

If Wuchang City is broken, the people in the city will face butcher knives, Jiangxia will also be bloody, and parents, wives and children will become prisoners of others.

This is something that no man wants to see!

Huang Zhong's words had an effect, and the morale of the soldiers in Wuchang City was greatly boosted, and they all became fearless of death.

Even those soldiers who were seriously wounded and lacked arms and legs gritted their teeth and continued to fight the enemy.

Huang Zhong did not stop there, but sent his subordinates to spread what he had just said in Wuchang City, and the news that Zhou Yu was about to slaughter the city quickly spread to the ears of every people.

The faces of countless people changed drastically, and the old people, women and children trembled, and there was not the slightest blood on their faces, even those men.

However, the men of the Han family still have blood and energy, and they are not those slaves of the Qing Dynasty.

After a brief period of panic, countless young people picked up their farm tools and participated in the defense of the city.

This is the consequence of Sun Quan's conquest of Jiangxia and the slaughter of the city several times.

As long as Liu Jue can repel Zhou Yu this time, he will definitely be supported by the people of Jiangxia, and his prestige will also rise to a higher level.

In front of the camp of the Zhou army.

Zhou Yu looked at Wuchang City from afar, listening to the sound of fighting in his ears, but with a faint smile on his face.

Until now, everything was in his plans.

After half a month of feints, the morale of the Wuchang soldiers was greatly hit, but their own soldiers were full of morale, and it was almost a matter of time before they captured Wuchang City.

It's a pity that Wuchang City is tall and heavy, and it may take the lives of three or four thousand soldiers to capture this city.

However, in Zhou Yu's eyes, as long as he can take Wuchang, this price is not worth mentioning at all.

Wuchang City has a population of tens of thousands, and if you can take this city, plus the soldiers of Wuchang City, this loss can be quickly compensated.

"Pass the order, all the drums will be beaten for me, to boost morale to the greatest extent, and we must fight to Wuchang!" Zhou Yu quickly conveyed the order as if he had won the battle.

Soon, the thunderous drums sounded in the camp of the Zhou army, which shook people's eardrums and could be heard from miles away.

But Zhou Yu didn't expect that at this time, an army was approaching behind him, and this deafening drum sound just muffled the footsteps of the other party.

......

"Major General, the drums coming from Wuchang City are so intense, it seems that Zhou Yu is already attacking the city with all his might!" Gan Ning said with some worry when he heard the drums.

At this time, Liu Jue and his soldiers were less than five miles away from Wuchang City, and only two or three miles away from the Zhou army's camp.

Such a close distance was almost a blink of an eye for the cavalry, and it was also easy to be discovered by the Zhou soldiers.

Liu Jue understood that it was time to attack, so he pulled out the Qingque Treasure Knife with a choked sound, and shouted at everyone: "Soldiers, the meritorious service is today, come with me to defeat Zhou Yu!"

"Whew!" the five thousand elites roared in unison, like tigers descending from the mountain.

Gan Ning led the cavalry to take the lead, responsible for breaking up Zhou Yu's army, Liu Jue led the infantry to follow closely behind, as long as the Zhou army's formation was chaotic, he immediately stepped forward to cover up.

Iron hooves are clanging, galloping like a tiger!

The five thousand tiger wolves instantly turned into a torrent and swept towards the back of Zhou Yu's army.
