Chapter 129: Slippery and hands-free play

Xiahoudun was furious, but he still suppressed his anger and pretended to be calm: "It's just coming to intrude, don't pay attention to it, be careful, tell the crossbowmen to fight back, don't chase after it!" ”

"General, most of our army's bows and crossbows are slack and unusable, even if they can still be used, the range is far from reaching, and the thief's crossbow is very strong, the spear can shoot through, and it can also penetrate our army's wooden shield......"

"Don't say it again, just be careful, don't send troops to chase after you!"

"No!"

Zhang Fei shot for a while, but no one came to chase them, and they didn't dare to really confront Xiahoudun's tiger and wolf cavalry!

The northerners are tall and have a huge brute force, and if they really fight each other in close combat, the southern soldiers will suffer a lot!

If this continues, the crossbow bolts have suffered serious losses, so they have to give up!

The sky was getting dark, and Zhang Fei had to retreat into the city.

At night, Zhang Fei asked Zhang Fei and others to have a full meal, and went to attack the camp in a big way, this time bringing most of the bed crossbows......

Xiahoudun was warning the generals to prevent Zhang Fei's sneak attack, when he suddenly heard another commotion outside!

"This flying old horseman is too rampant, and he didn't get into the night yet, so he came to attack the camp?"

"It must be the ghost idea of Wang Zhirong, since there is Wang Zhirong, there is a demonic atmosphere everywhere in the world, and now even Zhang Fei has learned badly!

I don't know what kind of bad idea I ...... again."

"Attacking the camp in the middle of the night, he can think of it, how can we not think of it?

Of course, we are on guard, and at this time, I just want to catch us off guard, and I think it's so beautiful! ”

"General, there are only 1,000 generals, and they will be ...... to come and go."

"General, the last general only needs five hundred people! Tell them to stay and eat......"

……

The generals in the camp began to clamor, and everyone enthusiastically asked to go out and teach a lesson to those who came to attack the camp!

"Rest easy! Everyone, don't be impatient! It's just that Zhang Fei's old man wants to disturb me, take strict precautions, don't pay attention to it! Before Xiahoudun finished speaking, a panicked soldier came in.

"General, it's not good, the thieves have attacked and burned my camp with fire!"

The generals were shocked and came out of the tent of the Chinese army, but listening to the sound of whining in the sky, countless rockets were fired, and many stables and tents were already on fire!

"What's going on? Why do just rockets ignite everywhere? Xiahoudun asked in surprise.

"General Yu, there is also a clay pot full of oil tied to the front of the spear and shot over, and it shattered when it landed, and the oil flowed everywhere, and the rocket was burning with pine resin, so it ignited the oil, so it caught fire everywhere!" Someone reported it.

This is not the way to go! If you don't send any more troops, the enemy will have to advance inch by inch, slowly advance, and there is a possibility that all your camp tents will be ignited!

Xiahoudun had no choice but to order the two generals to raise 2,000 soldiers and horses and go out of the camp to fight at night. was shot down a lot by Zhang Fei's strong bow and crossbow, and then Zhang Fei fled again!

When the locust-like rockets stopped falling, Xiahoudun ordered someone to fetch water to extinguish the fire, and he was busy for most of the night.

In view of Wang Dewang's previous experience, these two generals were cautious and did not dare to chase too far.

After returning, Xiahoudun ordered the soldiers to be divided into three places overnight, led by Wang Deshun, the younger brother of the partial general Wang Dewang, and the partial general Hua Buqun, each with 5,000 people, each marching to the northwest and southeast for ten miles, forming an angle with the Chinese army camp, and taking care of each other, in case Zhang Fei attacked at night.

Zhang Fei returned to the city, and Zhang Fei ordered Liu Feng to lead his troops out of the city and act according to the plan.

It was night, and within a range of twenty miles around Xinye, the drums shook the sky, and it rang all night!

The harmed Xiahoudun army couldn't sleep, so in the end he had to order more than 10,000 people who got up in the morning to attack the city to plug their ears, regardless of going to sleep, and the rest were always on guard!

But only heard the sound of the drum, did not see any soldiers coming, Xiahou Tang had the heart to send people out to find the person who beat the drum, and he was torn apart alive, and he was afraid of falling into Zhang Fei's treacherous scheme, so he did not dare to act rashly, after all, he had lost 2,000 men and horses just here, and now he was absolutely careless!

At dawn, Xiahoudun mobilized more than 10,000 people, holding shields, steadily and neatly advancing, and came to attack the city......

Zhang Fei dug a lot of trenches under the city wall early, built many low walls, opened a shooting port on the low wall, and ambushed a large number of crossbowmen behind the rows of low walls early, and also set up bed crossbows with a range of up to 500 steps and can shoot spears on the city wall, and waited for the army of Xiahoudun to come to attack the city.

Xiahoudun's siege soldiers finally entered the shooting range of the crossbow arrows, but when they saw the flag waving on the city, for a time ten thousand arrows were fired together, and the loss covered the sun, the close-range divine arm crossbow behind the low wall was taken to shoot flat, and the long-distance bed crossbow on the city wall was even more to take a dive shot, so that the Cao army's wooden shield protection ability was limited, they raised the wooden shield to prevent the spear from diving down from the city wall, and the lower body was exposed to the crossbow arrow behind the low wall.

At the beginning, the spears on the city nailed many people to the ground alive and died and stood still, which directly made the besieging Cao army feel cold, and they raised wooden shields to resist the threat from the heights, but in this way, the lower half of the body was exposed to the crossbow arrows fired flatly, and many people were injured by the arrows for a while! Moreover, the wooden shield they held high could not resist the spear shot by the bed crossbow at all, and it was directly pierced, and the powerful force made the shield man unable to bear it, and after the shield was pierced, the person also fell to the ground, some were lucky, after the shield was pierced, the person was not injured, but he was already scared stupid, and some were directly pierced by the spear through the neck, head, chest, or were nailed to the ground alive......

Xiahoudun listened to the sound of breaking the sky from afar, looking at such a sharp crossbow arrow, he was shocked in his heart, and secretly said, this should be the handiwork of Wang Zhirong, so powerful, it is not a thing in this world! Alas, if it weren't for this damn Wang Zhirong, Jingzhou would have been in the pocket of my lord!

However, Xiahoudun still has a very good set of troops, even under such killings, these more than 10,000 people still go forward one after another, and one phalanx, one phalanx bravely!

"Soldiers, don't save your arrows, shoot them all! Since they have come to die, then we will fulfill them, and stop this siege with crossbow arrows, and each crossbowman will be rewarded with five hundred! "Liu Bei, as the nominal leader of Jingzhou, personally supervised the battle at this time, and he still looks very strong!

The herald conveyed Zhang Fei's original words to every crossbowman, and everyone worked harder and harder, and arrows rained over, and when a wave of crossbowmen ran out of strength and their arms were sore, they immediately replaced another group of people!

Fortunately, the range of most of Cao Jun's bows and crossbows was far from reaching the level of the King's Division, so the King's Division was not hit by long-range weapons!

Although there are also some very bulky hard crossbows in the Cao army, which need to be carried onto the battlefield by several people, after being fixed, it takes several people to pry a huge lever to get the winding, and the firing speed is very slow, plus the number is limited, so the arrows that shoot on the head of the king's division are simply negligible!

Until now, there have been no records of serious injuries and deaths in the army of the defenders of the city, only a few crossbowmen who were bruised.

Of course, Cao Cao's army still has two brushes, and Cao Jun is not a vegetarian, although they suffered heavy casualties, but the soldiers behind him, the corpses of the brothers in front, still rushed desperately, seeing that this group of people was getting closer and closer to the city wall......
