Chapter 312: Siege

Looking at the huge army below, General Zhang and Li Fansheng both looked ugly.

The prefectural commander handed over the city to the two of them, and if the city had changed hands by the time he returned, it would be difficult for them to apologize for their deaths.

The two looked at each other again, and then looked behind them.

At this time, on the city wall, except for the city gate below, almost all the combat power gathered here.

On the nearly 300-meter-long city wall, there was a team of less than 700 people.

And among these 700 people, there are nearly 300 recruits who have only been recruited in the last month or two.

The recruits could tell at a glance that their hands with bows and arrows were trembling.

Of course, the hands of the other veterans were also trembling, and they had hardly ever experienced a war, let alone had to deal with a full five thousand men of seven hundred.

That's nearly eight times their strength.

Not to mention that the leader of the troops is General Xie, who has been famous for a long time in Dongyang County.

An eighth-class being.

General Zhang also saw the fear and fear of the soldiers, and he wanted to say something, but some of the words were blocked in his throat and he couldn't say anything.

His heart was also afraid.

"Let's fight."

He looked at Li Fansheng.

Li Fansheng nodded.

"Fight!"

......

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The drum roared.

Under the walls, the offensive has begun.

While a drum beat sounded under the city wall, a corresponding drum beat sounded on the city wall.

The sound of this drum means that the people on the city wall have made their decision.

The sound of this drum also means that there is no way back for the two sides at this time.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The arrows in the sky opened their way first, and after crossing a perfect parabola, they staggered through the air and headed towards their destinations in all directions.

The sky was overwhelming, as if it was raining all over the sky, covering up the sun.

It was dark at this moment.

Of course, it was the soldiers on the walls of Yangzhou City who were black.

It was the work of soldiers from the rows below.

A thousand men stood in four rows, and after the first two rows had shot arrows, the last two rows had already put arrows on their bows.

The alternation of two rows and two rows makes this rain of arrows never stop.

"Defense!"

It was obviously an unwise choice to compare arrows with such a large number of people below, General Zhang made a quick decision, and he immediately shouted.

As soon as his words came out, the soldiers took out the shields they had prepared first, and the shields were connected, and immediately formed a roof on top of the city wall.

Countless rains of arrows rained down from the sky, almost all of them blocked by the roof made of this shield.

Of course, there were also some arrows that fell through the gaps in the shields, causing quite a few casualties.

Fortunately, they had already prepared, and many of the Langzhong people in Yangzhou County were invited by them to come over, so that these injured soldiers could receive timely treatment.

Moreover, after the soldier fell, another person quickly came to pick him up, minimizing the casualties.

Seeing that the soldiers in the field were panicked, but they were defending in an orderly manner, General Zhang couldn't help but show some smiles on his face.

He knew that because of the county magistrate who served the people, the people of Yangzhou County had changed a lot.

After all, the enemy shoots arrows from the bottom up, and the rain of arrows is no longer powerful, so these soldiers can only resist one or two.

But.

After a rain of arrows, the opponent suddenly stopped, and then the archers directly put away their bows and arrows and retreated backwards.

Just when everyone on the city wall was wondering, they heard a rumble.

Again, they got out of the way.

Then, three huge carriages slowly pulled out of the way.

And looking at this carriage, General Zhang and Li Fansheng's faces were even colder.

On top of this carriage was a huge bow and crossbow.

Next to the carriage, there were arrows that were bigger than spears.

General Zhang glanced at Li Fansheng again, and he smiled bitterly, "It's only up to you." ”

Li Fansheng nodded.

After picking up his sword, he soared and landed directly in front of the city gates.

Seeing that the other party was independent of the city gate, General Xie smiled coldly.

Then he waved his hand.

The soldiers standing by the carriage understood, and the two of them lifted their huge arrows and placed them on their bows and crossbows.

Then three more men walked to the back of the carriage and turned the crossbow string.

But at this moment, a whistling voice sounded.

I saw a sharp arrow flying from the wall.

On the carriage on the far left, the soldier who was pulling the mechanism immediately flew out upside down, whimpering for his life.

General Xie's face turned cold, and when he looked along the trajectory of the arrow, he saw that on the city wall, General Zhang was slowly taking the bow again.

The previous one was shot by him.

Of course, only someone as strong as him can accurately shoot at the heart of a person hundreds of meters away at such a distance.

Being stared at by the opposing general, General Zhang smiled faintly, and then stopped paying attention to him, and shot another arrow.

"Humph!"

General Xie snorted coldly.

He flew straight forward, and then used his true qi to block the sharp arrow that the former had shot.

"You go on!"

After leaving this sound, he looked at the city again.

General Zhang smiled coldly, and after taking out three long arrows from the soldier's hands, he put them on the bow again.

True Qi boiled and exploded, and the three long arrows directly turned into three streamers, heading towards the three carriages.

General Xie held a long knife in his hand, and his true qi exploded directly into three blades, cutting off these three long arrows.

But when he cut off the three long arrows, three long arrows came from the city wall.

General Zhang's arrows were so fast that this time General Xie only cut off two arrows.

One of the arrows had already been shot into the chest of the newly replenished soldier.

Seeing this scene, General Zhang smiled faintly, and then shot three arrows.

......

After all, General Xie was not good at light skills, so he used all his strength, but he could only stop two arrows.

Seeing that the people on the leftmost siege crossbow would be shot down by it every time they came up, General Xie immediately gave up on it.

Commanding the two siege crossbows he could hold.

And with one less day of siege crossbows, General Zhang's goal has already been achieved.

Of course, he did not give up archery.

However, the target of his arrow had been changed to the giant arrow fired by the siege crossbow.

The power of the giant arrow was so powerful that the arrow shot by General Zhang could not stop it.

But this is already a great help to Li Fansheng.

Li Fansheng soared and directly used his secret technique to raise his cultivation to the peak of the eighth rank.

True Qi spilled out of his body and spread to his long knife.

Then, with a fierce swing, a sword flash, the flying siege sword had already been separated by him.
