Chapter 337
The battle at the North Gate was still fierce, and Zhang Chao was also starting to feel a little bit battered. After all, there were too few defenders, and he couldn't resist it faintly.
The two sides are already in a state of anxiety, and now the competition is all about breathing. Whoever relaxes first will definitely lose.

At this moment, a bloody sergeant ran over and shouted: "General Zhang, it's not good, it's not good!"

Zhang Chao frowned. The battle was tense at this time. How could such yelling not affect morale?
"What are you barking?" Zhang Chao scolded.

However, the sergeant turned a deaf ear to Zhang Chao's scolding, and continued: "General Zhang, it's not good, the west gate is broken!"

"what!"

Zhang Chao also yelled after hearing this, and said, "How is it possible? How could the Ximen be broken? Where's my elder brother?"

The sergeant's face was blurred with blood and tears, and he sobbed: "Master Taishou, he..."

"What's wrong with him? Tell me!" Zhang Chao said anxiously.

"Master Taishou, you committed suicide!"

"Ah!" Zhang Chao yelled, pushed the sergeant down, and yelled, "Cao thief, I am at odds with you!"

However, Le Jin and Cao Chun's sergeants took advantage of Zhang Chao's chaos and attacked the city wall.

"General, retreat, the north gate can't be defended anymore."

When Zhang Chao saw that more and more Cao soldiers had crossed the city wall, he couldn't help but sighed, and said helplessly: "Let's retreat, go to the south gate, and meet the lord."

At this time above the south gate, although Liu Bei and Chen Gong were a little leisurely, their nerves were tense all the time. They could clearly hear the shouts of killing coming from three sides, but they didn't know what the battle was like.

"Report!"

A messenger ran up to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "How is the battle going, please tell me quickly!"

"Reporting to my lord, Cao Cao personally supervised the battle against Ximen, and now it has been breached. Zhang Taishou committed suicide!"

"what?!"

Hearing this news, both Liu Bei and Chen Gong were taken aback. Liu Bei sighed and said, "I don't want to, but the most solid Ximen will be breached first!"

If Chen Gong shook his head, he said in a daze, "I didn't expect Meng Zhuo to go too."

"Report!"

Another messenger rushed over and said, "My lord, the north gate has been breached by Le Jin and Cao Chun, and General Zhang is leading the remnants to retreat to the south gate."

This news alerted Liu Bei and Chen Gong. Now is definitely not the time to be upset or sad. Cao Cao's army may attack at any time, so a decision must be made as soon as possible.

"Gongtai, what should we do now?" Liu Bei asked.

Chen Gong sighed, frowned and said, "Now we can only abandon Chen Liu and withdraw. If he resists stubbornly, he will definitely not be Cao Cao's opponent."

"Then where else can we retreat?" Liu Bei asked.

At this moment, there was a commotion in the city wall, Liu Bei hurriedly looked down, and found that it was Zhang Chao who led the remnant soldiers.

"My lord, Zhang Chao failed to guard the north gate, please forgive me, my lord." Zhang Chao knelt down on one knee in front of Liu Bei to plead guilty.

Liu Bei sighed and said: "It's good that people are fine, but it's a pity that brother Meng Zhuo, alas, I will never die with that Cao Cao!"

"My lord!" Zhang Chao was already sobbing.

Chen Gong next to him suddenly said: "I think of a place, maybe I can take shelter temporarily."

"Where?" Liu Bei hurriedly asked, this is a matter of life.

Chen Gong pointed to the southeast and said, "Go to Yongqiu!"

"Yongqiu?" Liu Bei was taken aback.

Zhang Chao raised his head, nodded and said, "Yes, go to Yongqiu. My family members are all in Yongqiu, which is where my roots are. If I go to Yongqiu, I can gather at least 2000 people from the village!"

A gleam of joy appeared on Liu Bei's face, and he hurriedly said, "Send someone to inform Yun Chang to abandon Chen Liu and go to Yongqiu."

"Decree!" Zhang Chao clasped his fists, and quickly sent messengers to the east gate.

Although Cao Cao broke through the west and north gates, he couldn't come to pursue them immediately. After all, he needed to stay behind to guard against them.

Seeing the messengers rushing away, Liu Bei hurriedly called the soldiers on the south gate wall to come down, opened the south gate, and waited for Guan Yu to join them, then they went to Yongqiu together.

At this time, the east gate was fiercely fought, because the city wall of the east gate was low, and Cao soldiers had already climbed in.

However, after they came in, they were facing Guan Yu, and no one could resist that Qinglong Yanyue Saber.

There have been countless corpses piled up under the city wall, most of which were Cao soldiers who climbed up the city wall and fell after being hacked by Guan Yu.

However, after all, Guan Yu was only a brave man, and his manpower was sometimes exhausted. As more and more Cao soldiers climbed over the city wall, Guan Yu felt more and more pressure.

It seems that sooner or later the city will be broken. Thinking of this, Guan Yu roared, and cut down two Cao soldiers with his backhand.

He must not let Cao Bing break through the East Gate!Unless you step over his corpse!
Cao Bing was captured by Guan Yu's aura, and the offensive slowed down for a while, which also made Guan Yu heave a sigh of relief.

Just when Guan Yu was about to gather the remaining brave men and defend the city again, a messenger came to him and reported, "General Guan, my lord ordered you to hurry to the south gate!"

"What?" Guan Yu was taken aback, and then asked, "If you go to the south gate, who will guard the east gate?"

"General Guan, both the west gate and the north gate were breached by Cao Cao, my lord specially ordered me to come down and inform the general to meet up at the south gate and withdraw from Chenliu!" The messenger replied.

"What? Both doors are broken!" Guan Yu couldn't believe it.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh, and the long beard fluttering in the wind actually set off Guan Yu's old age.

"All the sergeants listen to the order and withdraw!" Guan Yu ordered in a low voice.

Dian Wei under the city looked at it, and quickly said to Xia Houyuan: "Miaocai, come and see, Guan Yu actually removed the soldiers and horses on the wall, let's attack the city!"

"General Dian can't, I'm afraid this is Guan Yu's plan, just wait and see!" Xia Houyuan hurriedly stopped Dian Wei and said.

After the two waited for a while, Dian Wei became impatient. With a loud roar, he led the soldiers to climb up the city wall. When he went up to see, there was no one there, and he shouted at Xia Houyuan: "Miao Cai, then The red-faced thief really escaped!"

So Dian Wei ordered the soldiers to go down the city wall, open the city gates, and let Xia Houyuan enter the city. Chen left four gates, and three of them were broken.

With a cold face, Guan Yu led the disabled soldiers to the south gate, and saw Zhang Chao standing beside Liu Bei from a distance.

"Zhang Chao, how can you be worthy of my elder brother!" Guan Yu shouted loudly.

Zhang Chao was speechless. Who made him fail to resist Cao Bing's attack? Guan Yu has persisted until now.

"Where is Zhang Miao? Where is he?" Guan Yu shouted.

Chen Gong sighed and said: "General Guan temporarily rests his thunderous anger, and slowly unleashes the power of tiger and wolf, Meng Zhuo has already died in battle."
