Chapter 33: Take the Divine Beast to Attack the City

"Yes."

He opened his jaw and clenched his fists in response.

He turned around, faced the military formation, raised his red tassel knife and shouted: "Gongzi has an order, attack the city immediately!" ”

"Beat the drums!"

Roar, roar, roar...

The phalanx of 5,000 soldiers marched in orderly steps. Large siege towers, pontoon bridges, ladders, crashing wooden vehicles, etc., are all available. Rows of archers, hiding behind shield soldiers, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

Open jaw commands.

Seeing that he was almost within range of the enemy's bow and arrows, he opened his jaw and shouted: "Speed up, rush forward!" ”

Knock knock...

The drums of war grew faster and faster.

The besieging troops were running fast. The shieldbearer holds his shield to protect himself and the archers behind him. Every three breaths, the archers shot arrows at the towers.

Although it is not necessarily accurate.

But a wide range of shots can also cause a kind of pressure on the enemy.

The pontoon bridge was built over the moat.

The soldiers crossed the moat and set up ladders and siege towers.

"Drink, drink..." About twenty or so soldiers pushed the wooden cart with five giant trees tied together, aimed at the gate of Puyang City, and slammed hard.

In the process, Lejin was not idle.

He commanded the soldiers on the city tower, desperately throwing arrows, throwing boulders, and breaking logs outside the city, and the speed and strength of the attack were no worse than opening their jaws. Arrows flew like rain, boulders and broken logs, and smashed a large piece.

"General Zhang."

"The end will be." Hearing Yuan Xi shouting, Zhang Jaw ran back.

Yuan Xi said: "Send someone to take out the prepared wooden planks and dirt bags, and put the right side of the city gate up a zhang. When the time comes, I'll let the Elephant help in the battle, and its nose can be rolled up and lowered directly on the tower. ”

Zhang Jaw finally knew why Yuan Xi asked him to prepare wooden planks and dirt bags....

"Hahaha..."

Zhang Jaw laughed and said, "Childe is a good plan!" ”

"Hurry up and prepare, and strive to capture Puyang with all your might." Yuan Xidao.

"No."

After listening to Yuan Xi's idea, Zhang Jaw was also full of confidence.

If you can pick out fifty elite soldiers, send them to the city tower, and hold on for a short time. Wait for the siege towers and ladders to climb up, and everything will be done.

Thinking that he would be able to take Puyang immediately, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

After tea.

Zhang Jaw personally led more than 1,000 soldiers and more than 100 chariots to the south bank of the moat. He parked the chariot next to the pontoon bridge and shouted: "Everyone move, move the planks and dirt bags on the chariot to the opposite corner, move quickly, and be careful to avoid falling rocks." ”

The soldiers lined up and carried out the order in an orderly manner.

"Hurry, hurry..."

The jaw opened.

It didn't take long.

The soldiers moved all the planks and dirt bags to the opposite side, and piled them up next to the city tower about one zhang, two zhang wide and two zhang long, and there were many huge stones around them to prevent them from spreading due to the pressure of gravity.

Zhang Jaw selected fifty elite soldiers and stood outside the city with shields on their heads.

"Childe, you can get started." Jaw opened and ran back.

"Hmm."

Yuan Xi's gaze moved to the mammoth's body and said, "Old man, it's all up to you now." Go to that position, roll up the soldiers below, and put them on the tower, as fast as possible, and strive to send all the soldiers within half an hour. ”

Heehi...

The mammoth seemed to understand Yuan Xi's words, hissed, and nodded in a wooden voice.

Zhang Jaw was amazed, and said in his heart: "With the help of such divine beasts, why worry about the great cause?" ”

Mammoths and Jaws go to battle.

Yuan Xi also rode the colorful tiger to the south bank of the moat, ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time. After all, the mammoth is not invincible, and having an independent consciousness will lead to some accidents, and if he can control the mammoth, he can avoid accidents.

The pontoon bridge over the moat could not carry a dozen tons of mammoths.

It was to jump into the river and walk straight over...

After reaching the opposite bank, they rushed up to the mound just now.

"What kind of monster is this?"

"Shoot the arrows! Hurry up and release the arrows! ”

"Shoot it...!"

..........

The soldiers and generals of the Cao army guarding the city tower were all frightened by the height of the mammoth, which was even half a point taller than the city tower. If they were brave, they could touch the mammoth's head with their hands.

Bang! Bang!

Whoosh...

Countless boulders and arrows beckoned to the mammoth. Fortunately, the mammoth wears thick iron armor on its body, and even its head is protected, so it will not be easily injured.

The approach of the mammoth caused them a certain amount of confusion.

Some are dodging and retreating.

Some did not dare to approach the wall, so that the besieging soldiers climbed up smoothly.

Some even ran away...

Even Le Jin, the general of the Cao army, shrank into the cave of the hidden soldiers.

In accordance with Yuan Xi's orders, the mammoth rolled up the soldiers at the gate of the city and put them on the city tower with lightning speed. It's fast, and it's all in one go.

The soldier who was put on was very brave in battle.

He has been in the army for three years and has made several great achievements, and the current striker Sima can be regarded as a commander-level general.

Puff puff...

Taking advantage of the inattention of the people around him, he held his sword and attacked one after another, hacking four enemy soldiers to death. But the good times didn't last long, and there were too many enemies on the tower.

Even if he was strong in martial arts, he couldn't stop thousands of enemies.

Burst!

Suddenly, a soldier with a spear approached him and pierced his left rib.

"Ahh

He convulsed in pain, stretched out his hands, and grabbed the spear tightly.

"Kill!" The mammoth released another soldier, and the soldier's first move was to kill the pikeman.

Striker Sima was also killed!

The new soldier took his place and continued the battle...

Yuan Xi was very dissatisfied with the speed of the mammoth, and shouted, "Hurry up, hurry up..." ”

Zhang Jaw was also shouting: "The soldiers who go up, lean against the wall first, and hold the ladder and siege tower..." ”

Lejin was very anxious, and constantly sent reinforcements to make up for the gaps one by one. Send a marksman to sneak up on the mammoth's eyes. Because only the part of the eye seems to be the weakest.

Sou! Sou!

The marksman fired two arrows in succession, but both were miraculously dodged by the mammoth, with only a slight injury to the corner of his eye.

Yuan Xi also noticed the marksman, but there was no way to stop it.

Rattle...

The Anemo Pterodactyl chirped twice.

Yuan Xi subconsciously wanted to send it into battle, but thinking of the weak defense of the Fengshen Pterodactyl, he forcibly dispelled such thoughts: "If you are shot with an arrow, won't it be over?" ”

Ga!

The Wind God Pterodactyl seemed to be even more anxious than Yuan Xi. Perhaps it was the recent period of time that the relationship with the mammoth had eased, so that it could not allow the mammoth to be bullied, and it actually flew out in disregard of Yuan Xi's instructions.

"! Come back! ”

Yuan Xi wanted to forcibly control the Fengshen Pterodactyl and pull it back. But its speed was too fast, and in the blink of an eye, it flew out more than five zhang away, out of Yuan Xi's control.
