    Li Tong is also a decisive person, so he naturally understands what it means to burn the boat. Although their current situation does not require this at all, releasing such a feeling to the soldiers will make a big difference in the momentum.

    "Okay, order your men to bury pots to make rice and prepare dry food for three days. After lunch, break camp and prepare for the battle in Xiapi!" Li Tong immediately ordered.

    After Zhang Fei arrived at the place where the battle was scheduled to take place dozens of miles south of Xiapi, he began to arrange the military formation according to Chen Deng's command. Although Chen Deng was not very good at formations, he was not very good at holding Li Yan back.

    Soon a Xuanxiang Formation based on the Front Arrow Formation was created. Of course, this kind of military formation was taught in Ju. It seems that people like Li You who really understand military formations will definitely break through it. It is estimated that three  One-third of the troops of the same quality are enough to beat Chen Deng to the ground. There is no way. It is a difficult thing like the military formation. If the level is not good enough, it is best not to play, otherwise it will only be a tragedy.

    When Li Yan arrived with eight thousand troops, he saw that the troops and horses on the opposite side were well-organized and advanced and retreated in a controlled manner. Some not-so-good thoughts came into his mind. Although it was also the Xuanxiang Formation, he had not seen Chen Deng's formation at all.  Pass.

    "It is indeed well planned. People say that Chen Yuanlong is a famous official in the world. I had doubts before, but now that I see him, he is worthy of his name." Li Yanqi looked slightly solemn on his horse.

    "General, this military formation looks like a spear formation, but it is messy and confusing. I don't know how to start. It is difficult to achieve results by sending troops in from all directions.  ." Liang Xi looked at the military formation opposite, and after a while of analysis, he felt dizzy.  No inner feelings can be seen.

    "It is difficult to break this formation, but our army just wants to hold the opponent back. As long as we can protect ourselves, we will be riding a tiger. Naturally, there will be a chance for our army to make a comeback." Li Yan looked at Chen Deng's military formation opposite.  He's not too sure. Of course, he can still see some inner feelings, otherwise he wouldn't be so careless.

    "Yuanlong, do you think Li Yan on the other side can break your formation?" Zhang Fei was also a little uneasy. He had fought with Li Yan before, and it was obvious that Li Yan was very familiar with military formations.

    "I'm not 100% sure whether he can break it, but I know his goal is to hold us back. Besides, general, please don't worry, this Xuanxiang Formation was taught to me by my father. It has not been shown in front of others, it is a new one.  Formation." Chen Deng said he was unsure at the beginning, but he was obviously extremely confident later.

    "That's good, the rest depends on Xiaozhi and Xingba." Zhang Fei replied in a deep voice. Although there is an element of gambling in it, at this time, he must be doing his own thing well!

    "Li Yan, you invited me to fight the day before yesterday. I have set up a big formation today, but you dare to break it!" Zhang Fei rode out of the formation, pointed his snake spear at Li Yan and shouted, his voice spreading throughout the countryside.  Suddenly all Zhang Fei's soldiers roared.

    "It's just a mere Xuanxiang formation, what do I have to fear? Let's see how I can break your formation!" Li Yan laughed.  He chose a flaw he had seen before and rushed in. The two armies immediately got involved.  The fight began.

    In another place, after Zhang Fei left, Li Tong immediately led his troops to surround Xiapi City.  All kinds of siege weapons desperately began to attack Xiapi City. Zhang Fei's soldiers in Xiapi City had already blocked the city gate with huge rocks after Zhang Fei left, and they were not worried about the other party attacking the city gate.

    In this case, Liu Bei's army, which was not led by Zhang Fei but was well prepared, and Yuzhou army, which was led by generals but did not know the facts, began a fierce offensive and defensive battle!

    After the three waves of experimental sieges regardless of casualties, due to the continuous siege in the previous period,

    A large section of the moat was filled in again, and the Yuzhou Army immediately began to attack the city in earnest.

    "Pour it down!" A veteran commander and a new recruit poured the boiled gold juice directly down the city wall. The soldiers who were rushing up the ladder suddenly screamed and fell down.

    ¡°Then, before anyone on the ladder could rush up the mountain again, the veterans took the long forks inserted into the ladder and pushed the ladder out. A large number of soldiers from Yuzhou were thrown to death because the ladder overturned.

    "It seems that the other party has been prepared for a long time." Lai Min said to Li Tong.

    "This is normal. Chen Deng is a cautious person after all." Li Tong nodded and said. If he was really completely unprepared, Li Tong would still be suspicious.

    "I'll lead the troops, we don't have much time." Without saying a word, Huo Jun picked up a short sword, then picked up a large shield, shouldered a large sword, and led his guards to charge forward.

    Originally, this method of siege, in which a general led his subordinates to take the lead, should have started in the late stages of the siege, after the siege team's offensive had weakened. But today, time was running out, and as soon as the test was completed, Huo Jun led his personal guards and rushed forward in person.  , and suddenly the morale of the Yuzhou army was greatly improved.

      Stepping up the ladder, Huo Jun quickly jumped a few times, using a large round shield to block the burning kerosene poured down on him, and then holding the large, still burning round shield, he jumped a few times.  He rushed up, threw away the burning shield, picked up the big knife behind his back and cut off several spears that were stabbing him, and then jumped up.

    "Bang bang bang!" With the sound of several bows and arrows, Huo Jun rolled on the spot, grabbed a soldier and used it as a human shield, and then slashed him with a big knife, finally gaining a firm foothold on the city wall.

    Then a large group of Yuzhou soldiers wanted to rush up from this gap, but they saw tightly arranged veterans holding long spears and surrounding Huo Jun from all directions. A dozen archers behind him were already ready.

    After a flurry of spear stabs, Huo Jun had no choice but to jump off the city wall and retreat under the cover of his personal guards.

    "The defense is not very tight. Attack the city with all our strength. We will surround three buildings. The general will lead his bodyguards to attack the city with all their strength." Li Tong secretly rejoiced when he saw Huo Jun rushing up the city wall, and then saw that the opponent was forced down by Nuo.  I was a little disappointed, but I quickly adjusted my mentality and issued the order that was most suitable for the current situation.

    Under Li Tong's order, all officers and soldiers from Li Tong on down were promised heavy rewards, and the generals of each department led an all-out attack on the city from three directions: east, west, and south. If anyone refused to advance, under such an order, the army on three sides  With wild attacks and bombings, the generals were fearless and fearless, and soon Xiapi City was crumbling.

    However, Liu Bei was very popular among the people, and soon many hundreds of people came to deliver food on the city defense. Some young people who had participated in training even began to go up to the city wall to help with the defense. Under such circumstances, he was always on the verge of collapse.  The city's defense was always so weak that it could not fall.

    "Damn it, it's just a little bit close!" Seeing that it was getting late, Li Tong was worried.

    A lot of corpses of the Yuzhou Army and Liu Bei Army have been lost under the city. As the two sides fought, the battle loss ratio began to shrink, and just now it was almost to the level of three to one. Years of experience told Li Tong  , just one breath away.
