Ma Chao of Xi Liang, General Tianwei of Xi Liang.
There were very few who could match up to him, and they were all top generals.
As for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they were also top-notch martial generals.
Now that the two of them had joined forces, along with Liu Bei and the other two, they were still unable to block Li Cunxiao's full force attack.
From this, one could see how terrifying Li Cunxiao's strength was!
"Second brother, third brother, we are no match for him. Gather the troops and attack the city!"
Liu Bei did not care about his face anymore.
He had been eyeing Sichuan for a long time.
Today was the best chance to take it down.
When the Cao Army or the Sichuan army arrived, he would not have this chance anymore.
At this time, he could only attack. There was no time to delay!
When Zhang Fei and Guan Yu received the order, they quickly brought Liu Bei to the back.
Following Liu Bei's order, the soldiers surrounded the city.
"General Li, come up quickly. We are about to shoot!"
Deng Ai hollered. Li Cunxiao was already prepared and rushed back to the gate.
Following which, the archers on the city wall started to shoot.
Arrows rained down as they mercilessly shot towards Liu Bei's Army.
Liu Bei Army was naturally prepared and ordered the shieldmen to raise their shields to block the arrows.
Following which, the ladders at the back were also prepared to be raised.
Liu Bei had prepared for this battle for a long time.
Fa Zheng and Zhang Song had also expressed their willingness to follow Liu Bei.
With Fa Zheng and Zhang Song working together, Liu Bei knew that Sichuan would face such a calamity.
Thus, Liu Bei had long since built the siege equipment and waited for this day.
Today was the best time!
"Damn it, this Liu Bei is so evil!"
"I did not expect him to have already prepared the siege equipment."
"We do not have enough troops. If Liu Bei reaches the city, I am afraid..."
Li Yuanba's eyes widened. He picked up his hammer and walked towards the ladders.
Liu Bei Army quickly reached the ladders. Li Yuanba swung his hammer heavily.
In an instant, the ladders and the city walls were smashed to pieces!
"What a strong force!"
Seeing this, Zhang Fei could not help but exclaim.
This was the first time that Zhang Fei saw someone who could smash the city walls with one blow!
However, this was not the end!
Qin Liangyu had already drawn his bow. Every arrow accurately hit a soldier's skull.
This arrow was enough to kill!
Even the heavy soldiers wearing helmets and armor were pierced through alive!
However, Liu would not give up.
After all, Liu Bei's Army still had tens of thousands of men.
In terms of numbers, Liu Bei's side had a huge advantage.
No matter how brave Li Yuanba, Qin Liangyu, and Li Cunxiao were, they were only three people.
Now that the siege was imminent, with so many soldiers, even if they stretched out their necks for them to kill, they would not have enough strength.
However, Deng Ai was not unprepared.
Deng Ai had already prepared some firewood and dry wood. He lit them up and threw them down.
Also, there were some rolling stones.
These were originally the facilities used by the Ba Shu City Defense Army.
Ba Shu had been fortifying the outer perimeter all year round to defend against foreign enemies.
However, it could not stop the bravery of Li Cunxiao and the others.
So many defensive facilities were given to Deng Ai as a gift.
Deng Ai naturally would not waste such good resources. He used all of them.
As long as they could stop Liu Bei's attack, when the 300 thousand Cao Army arrived, they would definitely win!
What awaited Liu Bei was either retreat or wait for death.
The rolling stones and burning dry wood were like a nightmare to the Liu Bei Army. They directly smashed onto their heads.
This time, the casualties of the Liu Bei Army started to rise.
Liu Bei was not willing to give up. He ordered the ballistas to be moved over.
Zhuge Liang had asked the craftsmen to build the ballistae overnight.
The arrows fired by these ballistas were enough to pierce through the city walls.
Originally, Liu Bei wanted to wait for the main Cao Army to arrive before using them.
However, he did not expect that the 20 thousand Cao Army defending Ba Shu would be so brave. They blocked wave after wave of attacks.
If they were not used, the casualties of the Liu Bei Army would continue to rise.
Once the ballistas were loaded, Deng Ai could not help but open his eyes wide.
"Get down! Get down!"
Deng Ai shouted. Before the soldiers could react, the arrows had already pierced through them.
A few soldiers were directly pierced through. The arrows pierced through their bodies and nailed to the wall.
"Damn it! Why do they have these!"
Deng Ai did not expect that even if they were rushing, Liu Bei would still bring along such heavy weapons.
This was definitely not good news for Deng Ai.
Under such circumstances, they could only wait for death.
However, Deng Ai was not willing to show any weakness. He ordered the soldiers to bend down and throw down rocks and dry wood.
As they could not raise their heads, they did not understand the situation below.
The accuracy of their throwing was also not as good as before.
However, it was better than nothing.
At the very least, it slowed down the attacks of the Liu Bei Army.
However, it seemed like the Liu Bei Army had already reached the top of the city walls.
At the same time, the ballistas also stopped firing to prevent friendly fire.
At this moment, Qin Liangyu, Li Yuanba, and Li Cunxiao, who had just reached the top of the city walls, began to wave the weapons in their hands.
The weapons in their hands were like meat grinders. They were basically killing machines in human form.
The soldiers could not even last one round against them. They fell into a pool of blood.
The city walls were instantly dyed red with blood.
At this moment, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu also climbed up the city walls.
Although the two of them could not defeat Li Cunxiao, they were more than enough to deal with the Cao Army.
The weapons in their hands were like deadly weapons. They wantonly slaughtered the soldiers on the city walls.
For a moment, both sides were in a deadlock.
However, the situation was still not good for Deng Ai.
Liu Bei Army soldiers continued to pour in as if they did not care about their lives.
The number of Liu Bei soldiers on the city walls also increased.
For a moment, the entire battle became white-hot.
"Continue to charge!"
Liu Bei continued to give out orders.
At this moment, Liu Bei could not care less.
Originally, he had reserved some soldiers to defend against the Cao Army's main force.
However, an hour had already passed and the city walls were still not taken.
The twenty thousand Cao Wei soldiers had also decreased. More than three thousand of them had died in battle.
Moreover, the number of casualties was still increasing.
However, Liu Bei Army's losses were even more severe.
More than twenty thousand soldiers had already died.
Most of them were smashed to death or burned to death at the foot of the city walls.
On the city walls, the corpses of Liu Bei Army and Cao Army were mixed together. Blood dyed the entire ground.
At this moment, the sound of a bugle horn came from afar.
"General, general!"
The deputy at the side said in surprise.
