Countless boulders hit the city wall nearby, and the spear-like crossbow arrows shot from the bed crossbow were also inserted into the city wall and the city gate tower, but although Liu Bei's army's offensive seemed to be very violent, the real casualties to the defenders were not large, and the benefits of the veterans can be seen from this point, these veterans dodged in time and no one rushed around, except for a few soldiers who were hit by the boulder's rebound or the female wall was smashed and suffered casualties, most of the soldiers were almost completely unharmed.

These veterans have experienced many battles to defend the city, and they are no longer surprised by such a scene, and the soldiers can even rescue their injured comrades in their spare time, Xu Shu saw this, and his heart became more confident.

Liu Beijun soldiers took advantage of the time when the defenders in the city were suppressed, marched quickly towards Jingling City, Liu Beijun soldiers rushed all the way, and soon came to the bow and arrow shooting range of the Jingling defenders, after the sergeant of the observation post saw it, he hurriedly shouted to Xu Shu: "General, the enemy has entered the range of our army's bow and arrow, please instruct the general!" ”

Shoot arrows from the head of the city, the shooting range can reach more than 100 steps, at this time Liu Beijun's soldiers are still a long distance away from the city wall, so Liu Beijun's trebuchet and bed crossbow are still shooting, Xu Shu does not want the soldiers to suffer additional casualties, and shouted: "Continue to hide, don't get up and shoot!" ”

"The general has an order, continue to hide, do not get up and shoot!! ……”

Xu Shu's military order was conveyed, the Jingling defenders continued to hide under the city wall, and did not rashly get up to fight back, Liu Beijun soldiers were still a little scared after entering the bow and arrow shooting range of the Jingling defenders, but when they saw that the Jingling defenders were so frightened that they did not dare to fight back, Liu Beijun's morale was immediately high, Chen Zhigao shouted, and led the army to speed up and continue to rush towards Jingling City.

"General, the enemy army has advanced seventy paces in front of the city!"

"General, the enemy army has advanced fifty paces in front of the city!"

"General, the enemy has advanced to the front of the moat!"

……

The sergeant at the observation post continued to report the movements of Liu Beijun's soldiers, but Xu Shu never ordered to fight back, Liu Beijun laid the long ladder for crossing the river on the river, and the sergeants behind him walked while laying wooden planks, and the two thousand sergeants were divided into several teams and started to cross the river from several narrow places.

Where Liu Bei's army was arrayed, Zhuge Liang saw that his soldiers and horses were very smooth and came to the place of the moat and began to prepare to cross the river, and hurriedly ordered the trebuchet and bed crossbow to stop firing, so as not to accidentally injure the military sergeant.

"General, the enemy army has begun to build a bridge to cross the river!"

The sergeant at the observation post saw that Liu Beijun's soldiers began to build a bridge to cross the river, and he was immediately anxious, and hurriedly wanted Xu Shu to report the matter, Xu Shu saw that Liu Beijun's long-range attack had stopped, got up and glanced at Liu Beijun outside the city, after seeing that Liu Beijun's soldiers and horses were really crossing the river with a ladder and wooden planks, Xu Shu thought for a moment in his heart, and shouted: "One-third of the archers began to shoot at the enemy crossing the river, you don't have to use all your strength, put them under the city wall, and then prepare fire oil and rockets near the city wall that is facing the enemy army!" ”

"The general has an order, and a third of the archers begin to return fire!"

"Hurry up and get ready for the oil and rockets!"

……

Xu Shu gave an order, the Jingling defenders on the city immediately began to move, at this time there were a total of 3,000 soldiers and horses on the east wall of Jingling City, including 1,000 archers, one-third of them were more than 300 archers hurriedly got up, with the help of the cover of the female wall began to shoot at Liu Beijun soldiers who were crossing the river on the pontoon bridge, more than 300 feather arrows shot down indiscriminately, and immediately dozens of Liu Beijun soldiers were shot to the ground, although Liu Beijun soldiers were trained very well, but there were many recruits among them, After all, these recruits had not experienced real combat battles, and when they saw dozens of their comrades falling, these recruits immediately panicked.

"Don't retreat, those who retreat will be cut down, move forward quickly, the Lord is beating the drum and cheering for us, do you want others to see our jokes!"

Chen Zhi stabbed to death a sergeant who was running indiscriminately and shouted, and when the rest of the sergeants saw this, they immediately fell silent, and began to shout loudly and continued to rush in the direction of the city wall.

Chen Zhi saw that the soldiers began to attack the city again, and he was a little relieved, but he still had a lot of doubts in his heart, it is said that Jinglingcheng had twice blocked the attack of 100,000 Jingzhou troops, but now it seems that this Jingling defenders are nothing more than that, only with the combat strength they are showing now, how can they withstand the offensive of 100,000 Jingzhou troops?

Is there fraud in this?

However, although Chen Zhi had some doubts in his heart, he did not dare to order a retreat easily, after all, he had no evidence to confirm this matter, and there were only soldiers and horses in the world who retreated because the enemy's offensive was too strong, and there were never troops who retreated because the enemy's offensive was too weak, so he Chen Zhi could not set this precedent.

However, Chen Zhi was suspicious in his heart, his movements were a little more cautious, and he slowly fainted from the front of the soldiers and horses to the middle of the soldiers and horses, the counterattack of the defenders of the city was not violent, and at this time, Guan Yu led two thousand crossbowmen to rush over, under the suppression of Guan Yu's crossbowmen, it was even more difficult for more than 300 archers on the city wall to put pressure on Liu Beijun's soldiers.

Liu Beijun's soldiers soon finished building the wooden planks and formed a number of pontoon bridges, each pontoon bridge was built by five or six cloud ladders paved with wooden planks, which was relatively strong, and the river they chose was relatively narrow, so these pontoon bridges could withstand the weight of Liu Beijun crossing the river without worrying about the pontoon breaking.

Liu Beijun soldiers in the back quickly passed through the moat along the pontoon bridge, and soon came to the open space between the city wall and the moat, after Liu Beijun arrived at the bottom of the city wall, he hurriedly set up a ladder and began to climb the city, Xu Shu saw that the enemy army under the city began to erect a ladder ant attached to the city, and hurriedly ordered: "Half of the sergeants get up, throw rolling wood and stones to counterattack, and do not let the enemy army climb the city!" ”

The herald quickly conveyed Xu Shu's military order to the defenders of the city, and a thousand foot armor hurriedly got up and began to counterattack, some sergeants took forks to overturn the easily accessible ladders, and the rest of the sergeants began to throw rolling wooden stones to Liu Beijun soldiers with the help of the cover of the female wall, Liu Beijun soldiers were immediately knocked down by the rolling wooden stones, and the speed of his troops and horses climbing the city inevitably slowed down.
