The next day, the army of Cao arrived at the outskirts of the city. Under the city walls, the soldiers of Cao exuded an overwhelming determination, as if it were a sharp sword cutting through the clouds.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
On the city walls, the soldiers of the Yuan army looked down upon the Cao army below and trembled at the shouts from the Cao soldiers. Even though Xin Ping had high prestige in Dongpingling, it was only civilian support, not the morale of the military. Although Shen Rong was young and talented, he had not completely won over the soldiers' hearts.
Shen Rong saw the military morale wavering and punched the city wall.
There was no other way, he was temporarily supported by Xin Ping. Initially, Shen Pei had placed him under Xin Ping's command to cultivate his abilities while avoiding exposing him to too much danger. Shen Rong, worried about gossip, and Xin Ping, concerned about favoritism accusations, did not promote Shen Rong, but instead appointed him as a deputy lieutenant.
Indeed, this experience allowed Shi Rong to gain practical experience and understand what the soldiers at the bottom truly need by living and eating with them. However, despite his growth, he is now unable to command the morale of the entire army at this crucial moment.
No one would willingly serve as a subordinate under Sima Hui, especially those former Generals and Commanders. There were even complaints suggesting that Sima Rong was given military authority solely because of his relationship with Shi Xianping
“儿郎们！昨夜的酒肉，香否？”
李典策马立于军阵之中，高声喝道。
The originally solemn military formation instantly erupted in laughter, but the laughter quickly subsided without causing much of a commotion.
"Incense!"
李典朗声问道“还欲享用美酒佳肴否？”
“I am willing!”
“今日破城，随某家一同在城中开宴！攻城！”
"Break!"
"Break!"
"Break!"
Seven thousand Xuanwu soldiers shouted in unison, their voices resonating like thunder, with a overwhelming momentum that surged like an avalanche. Many new recruits were so scared that they even wet themselves, and even Sheng Rong was awestruck and couldn't speak for a while, just sighing.
当作为前军的两千玄武军都冲出去了三十步了，城头的审荣才反应过来，下令放箭。
“Protect!”
军阵中，几名将校呼喊着，军阵中中顷刻间便立起近千面盾牌，置于士兵头顶，挡住了大部分箭矢。没有拿着盾牌的士兵没有急吼吼冲杀上去，而是而是与持盾士兵配合着速度，以一种不快不慢的速度前行。
Damn it! There are nearly a thousand shields! Damn it, the Cao army is too rich!
审荣看到曹军阵中这副景象，忍不住骂娘了。
In the past, I had heard that the military strength of the Cao army was highly formidable, and both the quality and quantity of their weapons far surpassed that of the Yuan army. I always thought that my uncle was just trying to deceive me due to my youthful arrogance, but I never expected that all of this was actually true.
“继续放箭！不要停下！”
Helplessly, from the distance between the city wall and the moat, the rolling logs and rocks couldn't be thrown to reach. Sheng Rong had to instruct his soldiers to continue shooting arrows, hoping that the sheer number of arrows could at least inflict some damage on the enemy troops led by Cao Cao, and prevent them from easily filling up the moat.
However, only sporadic arrows managed to hit the Cao troops. The Cao troops, on the other hand, directly placed large shields by the edge of the moat. The shields were layered one on top of the other through grooves on the shields, forming a double-layered barrier. The integrated shields formed small bulwarks, blocking all the arrows from penetrating. Behind the shields, soldiers passed sandbags to each other, and the soldiers in the gaps of the shields took the opportunity to throw the sandbags into the river.
In the end, Shen Rong gave up on the moat altogether and allowed the Cao army to fill it up, saving arrows. The Cao army did not disappoint Li Dian either, as they filled up the moat in just a quarter of an hour.
“城门就在眼前，破城便在今日！儿郎们，杀！”
一名校尉挥舞着战刀，冲在了最前面。
The shield formation of the Cao army continued to advance, closing in on the city walls. In order to maintain secrecy during this march, they didn't bring any siege equipment. The ladders and siege hooks that are being used now were all transported from the armories of the cities of Licheng, Tugucheng, and Taixian.
“火箭，放！”
Seeing that the well walls and siege towers of the Cao army were made entirely of wood and not their own fire apparatus, Shen Rong immediately ordered the release of rockets. Flames appeared on the well walls and siege towers. The flames on the well walls were out of reach for the Cao soldiers and could not be extinguished. However, the flames on the siege towers were quickly extinguished by the auxiliary soldiers who were responsible for pushing the siege towers. They used the sand on the ground to put out the fire.
"Hmph, the moat may have been filled by you, but as long as I, Sheng Rong, am still standing, you will never break through this city gate!"
“照着井阑上扔礌石，用滚木砸云梯上的敌军！”
"Oil! Pour it on the siege tower!"
Shen Rong gave the order, commanding with precision, and the city walls stood firm like an iron wall.
短短片刻，曹军的井阑车已经被毁坏了四架，四架井阑上共数百人，或是摔死或是烧死，尽皆阵亡。
"Sound the drums! Someone steps forward!"
李典坚毅的面庞上显出一丝决意，手持一面铁盾，带着后方的中军的三千玄武军冲杀了上去。
"The General personally led the attack on the city!"
"Follow the General and charge!"
Li Dian held an iron shield, blocking the arrows on the city wall, swiftly advancing towards the bottom of the city, and directly climbed up a siege ladder, scaling it.
审荣大骇“火油，给向李典那厮身上倒！”
Li Dian quickly dodged the oil being poured down from the city wall by leaning to one side and using one hand to grab onto the ladder. However, the ladder itself inevitably got drenched in oil, making it slippery and difficult to climb.
Shen Rong snatched away the rocket and longbow from an archer beside him. He bent the bow, placed an arrow, and released it, hitting the oil-soaked siege tower directly. A spark landed on the siege tower, igniting the oil instantly, causing flames to spread on the tower. Please note that while translating, the "@" symbols are not translated and should be kept as they are.
At this moment, Li Dian only had two choices.
One, get off the ladder and retreat in time.
Two, withstand the scorching flames and climb up to the city wall before the ladder is burned down.
If neither option is chosen, then Li Dian only has one way to die.
Li Dian faced a desperate situation but chose to confront it head-on. With both hands gripping the burning ladder, he endured the scorching flames, undeterred by the arrows, and climbed upwards.
"Drink!"
Li Dian's legs kicked off, leaping up. He repeatedly clapped his hands on his thighs, relieving the burning pain in his palms, his face changing color.
Li Dian cursed inwardly, "Le Wenqian, you shameless scoundrel! Last time we drank, you boasted about climbing the ladder of fire, saying your hands were completely fine! How thick-skinned can you be!"
李典越想越气，一把抢过一名守军手中的环首刀，左右劈砍，将心中的怒火发泄在了城头守军的身上。
