Chapter 191: Fight!
The army under LĂź Bu's command was highly disciplined, and now that it was the time of the war, all the soldiers were even more vigilant, waiting for their generals to come and dispatch them to engage the enemy.
Therefore, Gao Shun and Zang Ba quickly dispatched their soldiers and horses, all of them were murderous, and they could follow their lord Lu Bu out of the city to kill the enemy!
At this time, Lu Bu also appeared in front of the army, and after saying something inspiring to the army and increasing the morale of the army.
Then, Lu Bu naturally wanted to take them out of the city to kill Yuan Shao's army.
"Knock knock knock...... It's just that at this moment, the sound of thunderous war drums suddenly sounded outside the city, which made Lu Bu's eyes suddenly narrow.
Lu Bu, including the soldiers present, were extremely familiar with the sound of this war drum, wasn't it that Yuan Shao had sent a large army over to attack the city again!
Because, Yuan Shao ordered his army to attack the city many times, and each time it was the sound of war drums.
However, Yuan Shao's army came to attack the city again, which made the soldiers present stunned!
Because, they were originally going to go out of the city to kill the sharp spirit of Yuan Shao's army!
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao's army moved faster than them, and now he took the lead in attacking them?
For Yuan Shao's army to attack Yi County, where he was located, in front of him, Lu Bu did not feel very strange like the soldiers present.
Judging from the actions of Yuan Shao's army, Lu Bu can now clearly affirm what kind of conspiracy Yuan Shao wants to use against himself and his army.
made Lu Bu immediately feel extremely vigilant in his heart.
At the same time, Lu Bu was also guessing what kind of conspiracy Yuan Shao was going to use against him, so that he would not even rescue the chaotic Qingzhou and his eldest son in danger, but would continue to fight with the army led by him here in Yi County?!
Now that Yuan Shao has rushed over to attack the city in front of him, Lu Bu naturally wants to command the army to do a good job of defending the city.
Therefore, Lu Bu ordered the soldiers who were already ready to be dispatched!
It's just that now it's just a matter of changing offense to defense.
Then, the army was led by Gao Shun and Zang Ba and headed towards the city of Yi County.
to resist another siege by Yuan Shao's army.
And Lu Bu himself, together with Chen Gong and Tian Feng, who looked puzzled and was thinking about what conspiracy Yuan Shao wanted to do, under the protection of Zhou Cang and other three hundred personal soldiers, also headed towards the head of Yi County.
"Da ......" Since Lu Bu and the others are not very far from the head of Yi County now, they quickly came to the city wall, and then followed the stairs and climbed to the head of Yi County.
At the head of Yixian County, Lu Bu stood in front of the female wall and looked condescendingly at Yuan Shao's army outside the city.
Originally, Yuan Shao's army, which was holding a sharp blade in one hand and holding a ladder on his shoulder with the other, and then besieged the city, actually changed his previous combat style.
Now, Yuan Shao is commanding his soldiers outside Yi County, and the soldiers under his account are braving the rain of arrows and the huge slings thrown by Lu Bu's army, and within the range of them being able to shoot at the head of Yi County, a huge pile of sand is rapidly piling up.
Seeing this, Lu Bu's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, because Lu Bu already knew that Yuan Shao wanted to pile up a sand pile as high as the head of Yi County, and then let his soldiers go up to the top of the sand pile and shoot at the army on his side.
Want to fight a long battle with yourself?!
"Sir, Yuan Hao, what do you think?" At this time, Lu Bu asked Chen Gong and Tian Feng on the side.
"Now that Qingzhou is in chaos, and his eldest son is also in danger, Yuan Shao will not go to the rescue, but will fight a protracted war with us! Lord, Yuan Shao must have a conspiracy, and he has to guard against it! Lu Bu asked, Tian Feng first looked at the movements of Yuan Shao's army outside the city, and then replied.
"Lord, Gong Zhi's view is the same as Yuan Hao's, Yuan Shao must have a conspiracy! Although Gong still can't figure out what trick Yuan Shao wants to use against us, we need to pay more attention! Chen Gong followed Tian Feng's words and said solemnly to Lu Bu.
"Hmm." Lu Bu nodded at Chen Gong and Tian Feng, indicating that he already knew.
Then, Lu Bu continued to look at Yuan Shao's army outside the city.
I saw that Yuan Shao's army was holding a shield in one hand and a sack containing sediment in the other, piling up mud and sand not far from Yi County.
Although the rain of arrows shot by Lu Bu's army and the stones that were smashed down, with the breath of death, took away the lives of the enemy soldiers who were responsible for accumulating mud and sand, now this act of killing made them very afraid of the rain of arrows and stones that Lu Bu's army beckoned to them, and wanted to retreat.
However, Yuan Shao had already prepared thousands of prison troops in the rear, and once he found those who retreated, he immediately asked the ruthless prison soldiers to kill these soldiers who were retreating.
There is a great determination to not give up until the goal is reached!
Seeing this, the soldiers in charge of piling up the mud and sand could only muster their courage and continue to brave the rain of arrows and stones that came at them, piling up a pile of sand that was huge enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time.
There are ruthless overseers in their rear, and if they want to retreat, there is no way, and they will die even faster!
Now, the only way to do this is to continue to pile up the sand pile that Yuan Shao wants, and fight for it, maybe when the sand pile is finished, they may be lucky enough to be alive!
Therefore, thanks to the efforts of these soldiers, a huge pile of sand as high as the square wall of Yi County has been piled up.
However, under Lu Bu's condescending archery and stone throwing at them, Yuan Shao's army suffered heavy casualties.
In order to pile up a tall and large pile of sand for them to use.
As a result, five or six thousand soldiers in charge of piling up the sand pile died, which can be described as a great loss!
Coupled with the soldiers who died during the previous attacks on Yi County, and the 10,000 soldiers who went south to rescue Qingzhou, Yuan Shao's current soldiers and horses are less than 60,000!
There are fewer soldiers and horses than Lu Bu in Yi County!
If Lu Bu led a large army to rush out of the city now, and then engaged them in a short battle, it would definitely be Lu Bu's side that won!
However, Yuan Shao knew that Lu Bu was not so stupid, and now he rushed out of the city to meet his army in a short manner.
Even if Lu Bu led the army to win in the end, it would make Lu Bu suffer heavy losses.
By the time the two sides were over, less than a third of the soldiers and horses brought by Lu Bu might still be alive.
Lu Bu's forces are in Pingzhou and Youzhou, close to northern Xinjiang, and there are barbaric and extremely aggressive alien barbarians in northern Xinjiang, plus Lu Bu's Youzhou is not very stable now, because those scholars who are not subject to Lu Bu's rule in Youzhou want to make trouble.
If Lu Bu lost so many soldiers and horses at once, then what ability did he have to continue to hold Youzhou, which he had just occupied, and Pingzhou, which had just been established?!
Therefore, Yuan Shao would now ignore the death of the soldiers under his account, pile up a tall and large pile of sand, and fight against Lu Bu who was above the head of Yi County!
