"Keep firing, keep smashing me!"

Liu Ye had already said that the accuracy of this trebuchet would not be too good, so Zhang Ying was not disappointed while being disappointed, but ordered the soldiers to continue throwing stones.

The Yangzhou soldiers braved the threat of bed crossbows and continued to reload stone bullets to attack.

However, the power of the bed crossbow in the city was too much more than amazing, and the accuracy of the bed crossbow was very high, so they calmly aimed at the trebuchet.

Even if an arrow does not destroy the trebuchet, it can hurt one or two soldiers.

And the stones projected by Zhang Ying's trebuchet are still sparse, either falling inside the city or outside the city.

Occasionally, one hit the wall, but it didn't pose much of a threat.

The mechanical weapons of the two sides fought, and over time, the winner was quickly decided.

"My lord can't do it, we only have one trebuchet left, and the operator has suffered heavy casualties."

The general who supervised the battle had to come back and report to Zhang Ying, Zhang Ying was a little annoyed and said: "Stupid, a group of stupid people, take people down, don't destroy the last one, I will inform the military division." ”

"It's the general!" The comer breathed a sigh of relief, and the only remaining trebuchet withdrew from the attack sequence.

"Siege! Assault me! The trebuchet failed to pry open the gate of Haixi City, so Zhang Ying could only use the old man, using the tactics of crowds, and using momentum to oppress and destroy the opponent's will and resistance.

"Kill ......"

An army of 20,000 rushed to the city, carrying the ladder and covering the archery with the sac.

"Fight back!"

Lu Su, Tian Yu and others immediately commanded the defenders in the city to launch a counterattack.

Wood, stones, and gold juice were smashed down, and brakes were poured down.

The crossbowmen kept shooting arrows, and the bed crossbows continued to strike from a distance.

Tian Yu organized the foot soldiers to hold big knives and spears to cut down the Yangzhou soldiers who had just been sent to the battlements.

The two armies engaged in a fierce engagement.

Soon, the Yangzhou soldiers vented their courage first, and withdrew without Mingjin.

"Bastard, who asked you to withdraw, continue to attack me, I can't take Haixi, what face do you have to see the lord." Zhang Ying was so angry that he drew his sword and killed a young general who took the lead in retreating, and then organized the army to launch a new round of incoming.

Soon the Yangzhou army launched a fierce attack, and in less than half an hour, the casualties were as high as 5,000 men and horses, and the corpses were mountains and blood seas, and Haixi City still could not be attacked.

Zhang Ying had no choice but to ask Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

The army retreated like a tidal wave.

Lu Su, Tian Yu and others had time to soothe and celebrate.

"Whew! Although the enemy was repulsed by us, to be honest, their soldiers were also quite strong, and they fought very hard. "Tian Yu holds the meteor gun and farts. He sat on top of a corpse and breathed in a big gulp.

It was the first time for him to defend the city independently, and he used to charge into battle with Xu Ding and others, and he didn't feel hard, he always had an inexhaustible strength, and he was always excited.

Now he is replaced by the commander of the city to fight, and he is physically and mentally exhausted.

Fortunately, Lu Su shares the pressure together.

Lu Su also said: "Yes! It was also the first time I had encountered such ruthless soldiers, and the gap between them and the bandits in Jiujiang was huge. ”

It was also the first time for Lu Su to fight such an inspiring battle, and his spirit was also highly tense.

"Zijing, you said that we should attack the camp at night and him." Tian Yu looked at the camp where Zhang Ying had retreated and said.

Lu Su said: "It's okay to steal the camp, but not tonight, Zhang Yingken will be on guard, our task now is to defend the city, not to kill the enemy and break the enemy, as long as we are victorious in the city, wait for it first, wait for Youping and them together, when Zhang Ying's morale plummets and retreats, there will be a chance." ”

Tian Yu thought about it and felt that Lu Su was right, or he was steady, so he gave up this immature suggestion.

Following!

Zhang Ying was proud for a long time, and found that the Donglai Army did not come to steal the camp, shook his head and cried and laughed: "!" This general defending the city is either an old-fashioned guy or a smart guy, this Haixi City is not easy to fight! ”

After breakfast, Zhang Ying fought tentatively, and found that the counterattack was still quite fierce, and knew that the siege was hopeless, so he had to retreat.

Then he wrote a letter to Liu Ye and asked for advice on his good strategy for breaking the city.

It's just that Liu Ye at this time is one head and two big, and he doesn't have the heart to care about Zhang Ying at all.

Because two pieces of bad news followed.

The first Donglai naval army Zhou Tai and Jiang Qinbu attacked the lower minister, and successfully entered the upper reaches of Huaishui around the frustrated water, and took Suiling, these two people were the little overlords of Huaishui, rampant between the counties, and they drilled in, and the disaster was endless, Huaiyin was in danger, not to mention, and the entire Xiapi country and Guangling County were not at peace.

The second bad news was even worse, the Donglai naval army went as far as the East China Sea, attacked Jiangdu from the Great River, and then lured Zhenrong, captured Guangling City, and released Zhao Yu, the Taishou of Guangling, and all counties and cities turned to support Zhao Yu, and the back road of the 100,000 Yangzhou army was cut off.

In other words, they were surrounded by the Donglai army.

Surrounded by Huaiyin and Huaipu, the only one that was not surrounded was the east, but there was the sea.

Liu Miao didn't bring the navy over at all, and the formed navy followed the Dantu in Jiangdu, and it is estimated that Yijing was killed by the Donglai army.

Liu Xuan's foundation was uprooted.

"Clever! That's brilliant! This is like the handwriting of Weihaihou. ”

The Donglai Navy that had been looking for it finally surfaced, and Liu Ye suddenly became enlightened.

At this moment, all the doubts in his heart were solved.

I have to admire Xu Ding's overall view and play a good plan.

From the beginning, he did not aim to repel Liu Xuan and help Xuzhou retreat from the enemy.

Instead, he wanted to swallow Liu Xuan whole, and come to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary and swallow dates.

If you don't make a move, you will kill the princes of one side.

It's a big spirit, but it's a game of chess.

"It's just that what to do next, it seems that there is a trade-off."

was surrounded on three sides, and it would be a headache to accept fate if someone else changed, but Liu Ye was still quite calm, and after thinking about it, he finally gave an order:

"Inform General Zhang Ying and ask him to retreat to guard Huaipu, and I will go to Huaiyin."

After giving the order, Liu Ye asked Fan Neng to temporarily sit in Huaipu, and did not tell them these two bad news, Liu Ye himself went to Huaiyin with a thousand elite soldiers.

Fan Neng didn't know the details, but he had the opportunity to be reused by the military division, and he was happy to take over the military power and sharpen his sword to garrison the city.

Back in Huaiyin, at this time, Liu Ye was already like an ant on a hot pot, anxious, and heard that Liu Ye was back, so he hurriedly went out of the house to greet him.

As soon as I saw him, I asked: "How is Ziyang good now, we ......"

Liu Ye cut off Liu Xuan's words and said: "My lord, the military aircraft is important, and it cannot be exported at will. ”

After speaking, Liu Ye looked around nervously.

Liu Miao nodded and replied like a chicken pecking rice: "Yes, yes, yes!" Zi's threats are reasonable! ”

So Liu Miao pulled Liu Ye into the mansion and asked people to guard the surroundings and not allow anyone to approach.

At this time, Liu Ye didn't wait for Liu Miao to reply, and said: "Lord, we should immediately lead our elite troops to the northwest and break through from Xiapi Kingdom......"
