Five days later, when the Han army reappeared outside the city, many of the soldiers had an extra large copper shield in their hands. These extra shields are not only the Korean army's own treasury, but also borrowed from the other four countries.

On the city tower, Zhao Ju saw the Han army continuously advancing towards the city wall from a distance, looked at the many shields in the Han army's array, and suddenly smiled coldly: "Could it be that the tyrant kite thinks that I only have the advantage of a bow and crossbow!" ”

Saying that, Zhao Ju shook his head, although the shield has amazing defensive power, but the soldiers holding such a heavy shield forward, it will inevitably affect their actions, and even more affect their physical strength. Moreover, these shields can certainly protect against arrows and stones, but in the face of the stones thrown by the trebuchet, as long as they are shot, in the face of the strong impact of the stones, even if there are shields, it will be either death or injury.

And the trebuchets in the city, after nearly ten days of deployment and pacification, have long been spread over most of the west of the city.

Sure enough, with the slow advance of the Korean army, under the protection of many shields, and under the defense of many siege equipment, most of the arrows shot on the city wall this time could not cause damage to the Korean soldiers, and the only thing that could pose a threat to the Korean army was the strong crossbow on the city wall.

Seeing this, Zhao Ju immediately ordered: "Order, let the trebuchet carry out the projection." ”

Soon after, hundreds of large and small stones roared out of the city, and then rushed into the ranks of the Korean army attacking the city. The stones fell to the ground, and some directly hit the sergeants, leaving a mass of flesh and blood on the ground; Some of them hit the soldiers who raised their shields, and they were all injured and killed; Some smashed the siege equipment of the South Korean army, destroyed some of them, and some of them landed in vain; Some of the stones fell in the air, like boulders falling into the water, which made the surrounding messengers tremble.

Although there were not many casualties caused by trebuchets, the shocking effect of hundreds of boulders falling into the formation and dying when they rubbed them together made the morale of the Korean army drop to a low point in an instant.

The violent kites watching the battle in the South Korean army's formation, after seeing hundreds of stones fall to the ground, the South Korean army that was charging was slightly stunned, and soon after hundreds of stones fell to the ground, after two rounds of strikes, the South Korean army's formation was chaotic.

Seeing this, the storm kite said with hatred: "Damn, how can there be so many trebuchets? ”

As he spoke, the storm kite immediately ordered: "Order, beat the drum, and let the soldiers in front speed up the charge." Order, let the second group of soldiers immediately prepare and come forward to answer at any time"

Postwar.

When the storm kite got the news that when the city was attacked today, the trebuchets of the Chu army on both sides of the northeast were not only not as many as before, but there were also a lot less, and they were immediately targeted.

Then, when Storm Kite got the battle report and learned that he had made sufficient preparations today, the casualties were not only not as light as last time, but slightly exceeded the siege five days ago, he could no longer sit still.

"Someone is coming, immediately send someone to inform the commanders of the four countries, and they are going to discuss the siege with them."

That night, the lords of the five countries will gather in the Korean camp.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today's siege, the Chu army has transferred most of the trebuchets in the city to the west, and the arrows on the city wall are raining down, and there are many strong crossbows, the Chu army is obviously deliberately targeting our South Korea."

Storm Kite's face darkened slightly: "In the past few days, the casualties of our Korean army have been increasing day by day, and it is not a way to fight like this, and our Korean army will not be able to withstand it sooner or later." ”

When they heard this, they did not speak.

Then, Kuang Zhang, as the titular commander, suppressed the schadenfreude in his heart, and asked in a calm tone as much as possible: "I don't know what General Tyranny has planned?" ”

Hearing this, the storm kite glanced at everyone, and then slowly spoke: "Now the Chu army is obviously targeting our Korean army, placing a large number of strong crossbow trebuchets and crossbowmen in the west, so that before our Korean army has rushed under the city wall, the formation has been disrupted by the Chu army, and it is difficult to pose a threat to Chen Cheng. ”

"So," the storm kite said with a heavy expression: "The general asked to change the direction of the siege, so that the Song army would come to the west and our Korean army would go to the east." ”

"Nope." When the Song general Tang Ying heard that the violent kite wanted the Song army to fill the huge pit in the west, he immediately opened his mouth to refuse, and sneered: "The general of the storm kite is really not kind, my Song army has been attacking the city for more than a year, and the 100,000 army has suffered most casualties, how can we attack the west where the city is full of defense equipment." Also, the South Korean army has only been attacking the city for less than a month, and the time for heavy casualties is less than ten days, so how can it not hold on. ”

Saying that, Tang Ying angrily bowed his hand to Kuang Zhang and said: "General Zhangzi, if the coalition forces deliberately let Song and Han change directions and deceive me Song Guoguo's small strength, then my Song Guo has no choice but not to accompany him." ”

When Kuang Zhang heard this, he saw that Tang Ying's expression was resolute, and he immediately opened his mouth to reassure: "The direction of the siege of various countries has been confirmed a long time ago, how can it be more yellow at will, so it is absolutely impossible to change the direction." ”

As he spoke, Kuang Zhang looked at the violent kite's face and turned cold: "The matter of cutting Chu is the result of the consensus of the five countries, if someone only intends to pick up the cheap and does not want to suffer losses, my Qi country will not agree to this matter." ”

As soon as Kuang Zhang's voice fell, Wei General Gongsun Xi and Song General Tang Ying spoke at the same time: "I, Wei (Song State), will not agree. ”

When Sima mistakenly heard this, he was worried that Korea would affect the next plan of the Three Kingdoms to besiege Hanbei, and he also said: "I don't think this matter is appropriate. ”

Seeing that all four countries were opposed, Storm Kite's face became even more ugly.

Then, the storm kite was silent for a moment, and then spoke: "In this case, then I propose that each of the five countries send 20,000 people to immediately build a ravine barrier south of Chen Di to cut off Chen Cheng's support. As long as Chen Cheng is besieged by Tuantuan, with the material reserves in Chen Cheng, it will definitely not be able to maintain the current strength of the counterattack, and the arrows and crossbows will not be consumed as unscrupulously as this. ”

When Kuang Zhang heard this, he shook his head again and said: "No, besieging the northeast, west, and west, leaving the south, and encircling the three queyi, this is the key to breaking the city." If not, our five countries will surround Chen Chengtuan, and when the Chu people in the city learn that they cannot break through, they will inevitably resist to the death.

At that time, with hundreds of thousands of Chu people in the city defending the city, what price did our five kingdoms need to pay to break through Chen City? ”

"But General Zhangzi." Seeing Kuang Zhang's refusal again, the violent kite immediately asked excitedly and loudly: "Chen Cheng is strong, and there are many defenders in the city, coupled with the continuous support of the Chu State, such a strong city, when will we have to attack to break through Chen Cheng." ”

"Half a year!" Kuang Zhang promised with a straight face: "As long as our five countries can still attack the city like now, we will be sure that we will be able to conquer Chen City in half a year at a time or in October at a slower pace." ”

"Really?" Storm Kite looked at Kuang Zhang in disbelief, now he didn't see any hope of breaking through Chen Cheng at all, but Kuang Zhang said that Chen Cheng would be broken within ten months.

At this time, Sima Cuo and the three of them also looked at Kuang Zhang in surprise, and they didn't know why Kuang Zhang was so sure.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him in amazement, Kuang Zhang smiled and said, "Everyone, I could have promised you that within ten months, Chen Cheng would be broken. ”

After making a guarantee, Kuang Zhang looked at the storm kite with a solemn face: "General Storm kite, I, the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Song have been attacking the city for more than a year, and they will storm Chen Cheng next, although the casualties of your Korean army are now greater than those of the other four countries, ten months, according to the calculation of the Qin and Han coalition forces taking turns to attack the city, it is only five months, I think about it, your Han army should not be able to hold out for even five months." ”

When Storm Kite heard this, he saw that everyone looked at him with bad intentions, and immediately assured: "Ten months is naturally no problem, but this general also hopes that General Zhang Zi can conquer Chen Cheng within ten months, and don't disappoint our four countries." ”

When Kuang Zhang heard this, he smiled and said, "General Storm Kite rest assured, Ben will naturally be sure." ”

"Okay." Storm Kite looked at Kuang Zhang and said seriously: "I will believe in General Zhangzi." ”

"Okay, then please wait and see." Kuang Zhang reassured.

Then, near the end, the storm kite said again: "Everyone, the Chu people's arrow rain and stone rain are too powerful, I want to borrow some large siege equipment with you to prevent arrow rain and boulders, you should not refuse this again."
