"Xu Huang, you quickly take some people to block those enemies who climb the ladder, and the rest of the people, follow me here and shoot those who hit the city gate with their spears!"

The city tower began to get busy, although everyone was afraid of Cao Jun, but at this time Cao Jun was still under the city and did not attack it, even if these yellow turban thieves were afraid, they would not be too scared to walk.

With the command of Liu Zheng and Xu Huang, the more than 2,000 yellow turban thieves also began to be mobilized at this time.

Some of them carried arrows and spears, and some young men began to follow Liu Zheng and fight back against the city.

On the city tower, Liu Zheng also made some preparations at the beginning in order to prevent Cao Jun from returning, and he collected some arrows and spears from Quyang City.

There are not too many arrows, after all, they are all controlled by the government, only a few Orion families, and there will be some in the big family, but when the Yellow Turban thieves are in chaos, the big families have already moved away and fled for their lives, and the weapons left behind are naturally pitiful.

Although some arrows were collected, the Yellow Turban Thieves who could use bows and arrows were not, so most of the arrows collected were blindly shot by these Yellow Turban Thieves.

The purpose is not to kill the Cao army besieging the city, but to scare and scare those Cao army, so that the momentum of their attack is not too fierce.

Liu Zheng really thought of a way to fight against Cao Jun, which was those spears.

Spears are different from arrows and require precision.

Slender arrows need to hit the enemy in order to deal damage, but spears are different in that because of their length and size, even if they are thrown at the castle at will, they have a greater chance of hitting the enemy.

Moreover, compared to small arrows, without practice, it is impossible to accurately achieve 100 shots, and because of the large size, spears can hit the enemy as long as they are slightly aligned.

"Shoot all these spears for me, and shoot them at the officers and soldiers outside the city!"

Liu Zheng took the lead, grabbed a few spears on the ground with one hand, said that it was a spear, but it was actually a wooden pole, on which a sharp spearhead was made of metal.

But that's enough, and it's perfectly feasible to use them as projectile weapons.

Whoosh!

The hundreds of Yellow Turban thieves on Xu Huang's side took some homemade bows and arrows and began to shoot at Cao Jun who was climbing the city wall, and the arrows flew out, crookedly, and they were not the kind of skilled people at first glance.

Hundreds of arrows flew over, and there were not many that could hit Cao Jun.

It's good that 12 out of 10 can hit.

Of course, some people can't shoot, naturally there are people who can shoot, there are many Yellow Turban soldiers, many of them are peasant hunters, there are some hunters, archery skills are still good, the arrows shot, seven or eight out of ten can hit the body of Cao Jun, causing fatal damage to Cao Jun who climbed the city wall.

And Liu Zheng's side also began to fight bravely to kill the enemy, the spear with the thickness of two fingers, the weight was not too heavy, and it was thrown out of Liu Zheng's hand, and it flew down towards the dense Cao army under the city.

The whirring wind came from Liu Zheng's ears, and with Liu Zheng's attack, the yellow turban thieves with spears behind him also threw out the spears in their hands.

The spear flew down, snorted, and fell into Cao Jun's camp, and soon there was a scream from below.

The sharp spear pierced directly through the chest of that Cao Jun and shot straight into the ground, so that even if the Cao Jun died, he did not fall to the ground and was nailed to the ground.

In the first wave of attack, these spear projection methods can effectively strike at those Cao troops under the city at the first time.

In the encounter outside the city, the cavalry was able to deal a huge blow to the Yellow Turban thieves on the castle tower, but at this time, the encounter turned into a siege battle, and the gap was not so big.

Although Cao Jun also had some archers, riding on horseback and began to shoot at the city tower, but from the city to the city tower, the arrows were not so easy to reach, and at the same time, if the strength was small, they might not be able to shoot the city tower, only trained archers could accurately shoot the yellow turban thieves in the city tower.

Obviously, there are no such people in Cao Jun.

Cao Cao originally thought that with siege equipment, he could easily capture Quyang City and kill this group of Yellow Turban remnants again, but just a photo made him understand that these Yellow Turban troops on the city tower were not so easy to deal with.

Looking at the arrows and spears that kept coming down from the tower, Cao Cao fell silent.

Cao Hong immediately came to Cao Cao's side.

"Big brother, the yellow turban thieves in Quyang City are a little different from what we encountered before."

Cao Hong led three hundred officers and soldiers to climb the tower, but three hundred people, after all, the number was still too small, and in the face of the counterattack of the Yellow Turban Thieves, the three hundred people quickly fell behind, especially, there was Xu Huang, a fierce general.

Other people's arrows may not be able to hit a hundred shots, but Xu Huang's archery skills are extraordinary, and one arrow can shoot the Cao Jun who rushed to the front.

Seeing the soldiers and horses around him die one by one, half of the three hundred people died quickly, Cao Hong couldn't sit still, and immediately turned his head and returned to Cao Cao's side.

"I can see that there are high-ranking people in this city commanding these Yellow Turban Thieves, and they are ready to defend the city, not that we can take this city with our little manpower, if I am not eight hundred, but the same number as the Yellow Turban Thieves in the city, I am still a little sure, now."

Cao Cao didn't make a move, but judging from the troop mobilization and counterattack methods of these Yellow Turban troops on the city tower, the Yellow Turban thieves in this city were not so easy to deal with.

It is said that fighting a war is a battle in which the enemy is injured by 1,000 and 800 self-losses, and siege warfare, the book of war says that at least five times the enemy's soldiers and horses are required, even if later, the invention of such a thing as ** requires three times the enemy's strength to be able to capture a city.

And Cao Cao actually said at this time that he only needed to have the same number of Yellow Turban Thieves as he could capture Quyang City, which shows that in his heart, these Yellow Turban Thieves on Quyang City are still vulnerable, and it is only because of the backbone that they can play some role in the battle.

"Cao Hong, let our soldiers and horses retreat! Quyang City is not so easy to fight, and we still need to keep some manpower to go to the Changshe to help Lord Huangfu Song. ”

After knowing that the siege was hopeless, Cao Cao decisively asked Cao Hong to withdraw his troops.

Cao Hong's tense expression was slightly better at this time, and he immediately sounded the golden gong at the Cao army that was still frantically attacking the city, Mingjin withdrew his troops, and the whole army retreated.
