Volume 2 The Rise of the Heroes Chapter 143 The Capture of the City

However, he said that Bao Xin was in a hurry to return to his own camp, and despite the late night, he called someone to call his brother to come to the military tent.

Bao Xin has four brothers, he is the eldest, and the next three brothers are Bao Zhong, Bao Yi, and Bao Li, the second brother Bao Zhong is the one who was in the crusade against Dong Zhuo and marched into Luoyang, because Yuan Shu was jealous of Sun Jian's merits, and sent a letter to Bao Xin to lead the army to rob Bishui Pass, but was killed by Hu Zhen by the guards of Bishui Pass.

Before long, the curtain of the big tent was opened, and the two generals walked in, both of whom were strong and broad-waisted, and Bao Xin was the same, it was Bao Yi, the third brother of the Bao family, and Bao Li, the fourth brother.

"Brother, why are you calling us so late at night?" Bao Yi shouted angrily.

"Big deal!" Bao Xin's face was solemn, and he spoke slowly: "Tomorrow, our army will go to capture the city, and we will definitely take it first!" ”

"Huh? Let's attack? Bao Yi Bao Li heard this, and his eyes widened in confusion, quite incomprehensible.

"Yes, our Jibei Army also participated in the capture of the city, and it must be the first to capture it." Bao Xin nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Then Liu Dai said tonight that the one who entered Puyang first was the Taishou of Dongjun." How could I miss such a great opportunity? Two brothers, you two will work hard tomorrow to win Puyang for me. ”

Bao Yi Baoli was also overjoyed, glanced at each other, and arched his hand and said: "Obey the order, I will take Puyang for my brother." ”

"And ......" Bao Xin smiled coldly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a gloomy light flashed, and said: "Tomorrow, there will be that Mao Hui who will also lead the army to attack the city, and we will compete with him...... Hum...... He must not be allowed to enter the city. ”

"This ...... Is our army so strong? "Bao Yi dares to attack the city, but he is not sure that he must advance the city.

"Hmph...... Listen...... If you fail to take the lead in attacking, and Mao Hui's barbarian man captures it first, you will retreat for me, yes, it is a defeat and retreat, and you can't defeat the Puyang army and retreat. Let the Puyang Army go all out to deal with that Mao Hui. Bao Xin pursed his mouth and said coldly, "I can't get it, and I will never let that man get it." …… Hmph"

Bao Yi Baoli glanced at each other again, nodded, and shouted, "Understood, big brother don't worry." ”

"Okay, recharge your energy tonight, and attack the city tomorrow!"

……

Next.

The morning sun is shining, and the sun is shining.

Yanzhou Barracks.

Tens of thousands of Yanzhou elite soldiers are neatly arranged, hunting with banners, swords and guns, and distinctive armor; After the battle, countless catapults, hard ballista cars, nest cars, and watchtowers are all available; In front of the formation, dozens of Sima Junhou stood across their horses.

That Mao Hui was draped all over, sitting on a horse, holding a spear, his long beard fluttering, his eyes were cold, and he shouted loudly: "Brothers, yesterday our army was defeated and retreated, and Lord Assassin Shi was thunderous. Why? There are only 20,000 horses in Puyang City, and the dragons are leaderless, and people's hearts are uncertain, you can't take it! …… This is a shame for the military! I, Mao Hui, also feel ashamed! Today, the enemy has lost thousands! The moat has been filled! All that's left is to siege the city! Besiege! Besiege! …… Brothers, do you dare to follow me Mao Hui to attack Puyang City? Wash away yesterday's shame? ”

"Dare! Dare! The dozens of Sima Junhou in front of the formation took the lead in raising their swords and shouted. Yesterday they retreated, and they bore the brunt of the reprimand, full of frustration and anger to vent today.

"Dare! ......" Tens of thousands of Yanzhou soldiers all raised their swords and guns and roared in unison, with a momentum like a rainbow and a shocking momentum.

"Brothers, take Puyang City! I, Mao Hui, swear here to take Puyang City, if I am too guarded, all brothers will be rewarded! Walk! Besiege! ......" Mao Hui waved the spear in his hand and rode out of the camp first, with a monstrous murderous intent.

"Siege! Besiege! ......" The boundless Puyang soldiers roared in unison, stepped on their war horses, held their swords and spears high, pushed the siege equipment, and rumbled towards Puyang.

"Let's go! Let's go too! Bao Xin smiled coldly, stepped on the horse with his fat body, waved his whip, and together with Bao Yi and Bao Li, led the Jibei army to follow the Yanzhou soldiers to Puyang.

"Rumbling ......" cowhide drums throbbed dullly.

"Woo woo woo woo ......" marching horn is majestic and far-reaching.

"Siege! Besiege! Besiege! ......" tens of thousands of troops shouted rhythmically, holding swords and guns, holding high shields, lifting ladders, pushing siege equipment, advancing step by step neatly and rhythmically, with a clear rhythm and shocking people's hearts.

It was no different from yesterday, when the army entered the range of two miles, the horn suddenly became fierce and urgent, and the cowhide drum suddenly became loud. "Kill! ......" The Yanzhou soldiers suddenly let out a cry of collapse and cracking, and suddenly accelerated their pace, rushing towards Puyang City like a rushing wave.

Sima Yang Xiong of the Puyang Catapult Battalion had been waiting for the enemy to enter the attack range, and he shouted loudly: "Catapult...... Put ......"

The Yanzhou Catapult Battalion had already prepared, and as soon as it entered the position, it also gave a loud order: "Return fire...... Suppressing ......"

The two armies exchanged fire again, starting with the sling.

The shouts, the runs, the stones, the screams, the wailing, the endless.

"Rush! Rush! Rush! ......" Mao Hui had big red eyes, who cared about the roaring stones in the sky, rode his horse and galloped, shouting, "Rush!" Rush if you don't die! Rush to Lao Tzu! ”

The tide is sharper and more urgent. The stone-throwing smash is like a pebble thrown into the water in the crowd, which can ripple, but it can't stop the general trend.

"Bed crossbow...... Launch ......" Ballista Battalion Sima Zhao Bao also began to roar sharply.

"Archer...... ......" Xuankuan, the general of Dongjun, stood at the head of the city, standing majestically, shouting coldly.

In an instant, the arrows became yin, the arrows became clouds, and the large and small arrows and crossbows poured down on the heads of the Yanzhou soldiers who were running desperately like a torrential rain. "Peng Peng ......", huge and powerful crossbow arrows smashed shields, bed crossbows, armor, through war horses, through the body, harvesting strings of lives. "Countless bows and arrows pierced the shield, the siege equipment, the ground, the armor, the skull, the eyes, the body, the hands and feet, devouring one life after another.......

Blood splattered everywhere, gurgling and flowing, soaking the slightly dried blood mud under Puyang City once again thoroughly. The screams tore through the sky, and the mountains cracked.

A round of arrow rain passed, Mao Hui's war horse was shot like a hedgehog by the rain of arrows, and fell down with a wail, he rolled and jumped off the horse, still holding high the shield full of arrow feathers, and neighed: "Bow and arrow counterattack!" Suppress! Suppress! There are so many of us! ”

Countless leading soldiers, Sima Junhou, were also shouting: "Bow and crossbow fire!" Bow and arrow counterattack! ……”

Under the shields, countless soldiers came out, bent their bows and arrows, and listened to the order to shoot at the head of the city to counterattack; The bed crossbow also let out an angry roar and whistled towards the city; and the archers on the watchtower and the nest chariot did not want to come out and shoot at the head of the city.

"Brush Brush Brush ...... Woohoo ......"

There were many people, the storm was stormy, and the dark clouds that were crushing the past towards Puyang were darker and bigger, and the rain-like attacks on the city became sparse in an instant.

What came into my ears was the countless wails and screams of "Ah ......", which were terrible and abnormal.

This was not enough, Mao Hui continued to raise a trumpet flag and wave it desperately, grinning and roaring: "Ma Jun...... Ma...... Suppressing ......"

There were also two horse armies on both sides of the infantry array, and they also galloped to the city like a tide, and the bows and arrows in their hands continued to shoot upwards, giving more pressure to the head of Puyang City.

"Phew...... Mother's ......" Xuankuan leaned his back against the battlements, spit out a mouthful of blood, and cursed loudly, "It's much more fierce than yesterday, mother." ”

Under the battlements directly above the city gate, Da Qiao, Sun Erniang, and Zhang Qing also leaned against the battlements, half sitting and half squatting.

Looking at that Zhang Qing, his right hand tightly covered his left arm, and an arrow feather was inserted into his left arm, and blood slowly flowed out from his fingers along the armor.

Sun Erniang screamed, "Shopkeeper, you're injured." ”

"It's okay...... Protected by armor, there is no skin, and it can't hurt the bones. Zhang Qing smiled, pretending to be relaxed, but he didn't see that he was already pale.

Sun Erniang rushed over and was about to disarm Zhang Qing and bandage him.

"Enemy...... Enemy...... Loot the city......" the pawns suddenly shouted.

Da Qiao stood up suddenly, his jade face was frosty, he clenched his silver teeth, and shouted: "Smash, smash the stone hard!" Smash them down! ”

Zhang Qing also stood up suddenly, and was about to move the stone and rolling wood.

"Your arm!" Sun Erniang's pretty eyes were slightly red, and she grabbed Zhang Qing's arm and didn't let go.

"Oops! Sentimental! It's okay! You're okay! Zhang Qing shouted, he rarely showed his man's martial arts in front of the tigress Sun Erniang.

Seeing that the head of Puyang City was temporarily suppressed by the rain of arrows, Mao Hui shouted: "Up! ...... on the ladder Besiege! ”

Countless heavy and tall ladders were erected at the head of the city, and the sharp inverted hooks of the ladder heads were tightly tied to the city bricks.

"Up! ......"Countless soldiers bit their blades in their mouths, held their shields aloft on one side, and climbed towards the city like monkeys on the other, like ants climbing trees, dense and innumerable.

"Smash! ......" The head of the city suddenly let out an earth-shattering roar, and in the suppression of the rain of arrows in the sky, countless stones and rolling logs smashed down like hailstones, and at the same time, countless boiling gold juice was also splashed down one by one.

"Ah...... Ah......h

The Yanzhou soldiers screamed and fell down the ladder like dumplings.

The fork pole against the wood also stretched out from the city, and these thick logs were stubbornly against the ladders, knocking them out of the city walls, and then fiercely picking them in the opposite direction, and the ladders fell down violently, and the soldiers on the ladders fell down one by one.

There are countless people with broken brains, broken bones and limbs, blurred flesh and blood, and ulcers all over the body; Wailing, screaming, rolling, prostrating, moaning, miserable. What is hell, this is hell, hell on earth, which devours countless lives of both enemies and friends.

"Half a boat! With a half-cut boat! ......" Mao Hui's eyes cracked, and he roared with anger. He pushed away a soldier next to him, and strode to a column of soldiers who were holding half of the boat in unison. What is a half-cut ship, that is, a siege tool built of wood like a ship, when used, the ship is buckled upside down, and the soldiers are in it, carrying the ship forward to protect themselves, which means that the white point is a giant shield.

"Follow me!" Mao Hui got in, held half the boat high, and shouted in all directions.
