The next day, Wei Yan began to lead people to build an arrow tower, only to see that the Jizhou army began to build towers with stones and timber every few dozen steps under the protection of the shield hand, because it was too close to the city wall, many officers and soldiers defending the city began to release arrows, but unfortunately they were blocked by the hand holding a high shield hand close to one person, the ancient bow and crossbow arrow penetration was limited, and a thick door plate was enough to make the bow and crossbow have no way at all.

But Zhang Jie didn't expect that the time to build the arrow tower was not faster than filling the river, because each arrow tower should be relatively high, and a large number of stones, the soil could only be filled in the middle, and the periphery was raised with stones, when the first arrow tower was built, Ju Yi sent five crossbowmen to the top of the tower, and the top of the tower was made of thick wooden boards as a wrigley, and the crossbowmen had good protection, only to see the five archers on the top of the tower as soon as they released the arrows, and three people were hit by arrows on the spot, and the five archers sent by Ju Yi were all masters with crossbows. Gongsun Jun didn't react, and he didn't even take a shield.

Zhang Jie saw that Wei Yan had a lot of ideas, this method was very good, at least it could suppress a lot of enemy archers, but he still stopped and withdrew those five people, now is not the time to show his strength, he has to wait for all the arrow towers to be built. At the same time, the siege is powerful, but the arrow tower is built slowly, and it took a few days to beat the drum, and now the defenders are numb when they hear the drums, what Zhang Jie wants is that the defenders ignore the drums, maybe this sudden attack is really coming, and the defenders will not react.

The arrow tower was finally ready, just when Zhang Jie was preparing to attack the city, Zhao Yun came back and said: Lord, the cloud is late, Yuyang is an empty city, Gongsun Chan transferred all the 10,000 horses guarding Yuyang to Youbeiping, Yun estimates, Zhang He's side will be about the same, there should be no battle, and all the cities will be taken soon, but Gongsun Chan took all the food in the city to Youbeiping before withdrawing the troops, and Yun only left a few three hundred soldiers to guard the city, I hope there will be no chaos, Zhang Jie said: There is no enemy army with three hundred cavalry is enough, Our Han people are the loveliest people, and they will not rebel under normal circumstances.

Now the main thing is to take Jixian County, Jixian County, and most of it

If you take it, it's useless for Gongsun Chan to return to Youbeiping, this time we have to destroy Gongsun Chan's nest in one go.

Zhang Jie shouted: We don't have to wait for Zhang He, start preparing to attack the city now, Xia Zhong said: Lord, now we only have more than 40,000 horses, and the number of people does not have too much advantage to attack the city, I am afraid that it will be difficult for a while, or wait for General Zhang He to come back and attack together!

Zhang Jie said: It's useless for Zhang He to come back, the city is so big, no matter how many people can't use it, it's better to attack first, Jixian County can't be captured once or twice, everyone must be mentally prepared and start changing the city, No!

Tong! Tong! Tong! This time the drum sounded, and then there was a horn sound, the soldiers defending the city were used to nothing, but the siege of Jizhou soldiers was different, the horn represented the beginning of the siege, the brother saw that a trebuchet was reached to the city wall and far away, and the top of the arrow tower also began to stand full of crossbowmen, Juyi's crossbowmen began to release arrows, and a trebuchet smashed dozens of catties of stone bullets on the city wall, and the Gongsun army defending the city finally knew that this time it was not as before to tease them, but to really.

Liu Meng commanded a battering ram made of a huge tree pole to hit the city gate, the front of the hammer is made of iron, hit the city gate, only to see a tom, the city gate as if it was about to break, but unfortunately Gongsun Zhan, the bastard, had already prepared, he used the stone placed on the side of the city gate has long blocked the city gate, many ancient city gates have been polished by stonemasons on the inside of the rectangular stone blocks used to seal the door, because the city gate is made of wood, it is difficult to withstand the impact of thousands of pounds. Therefore, most of the city gates will build these stones to block the gates, because the stones are polished by stonemasons, it only takes a few minutes to block the city gates, if you want to open the city gates, it is also very fast, hundreds of people carry stones, and they can be cleaned in a moment.

When Liu Meng commanded the soldiers, he bumped into it a few times. They all knew that it was blocked with a stone, and it was useless to hit it again, and the soldiers defending the city on the city wall would throw stones down, which was very dangerous.

When the trebuchet smashed a stone on the head of a soldier defending the city, the brain was cracked, and it was miserable, and the ghosts on the city wall cried wolf, but as they saw more, they slowly got used to it, and some people shouted to hide in the corner of the wall, so that the trebuchet could not hit, because the trebuchet was a parabolic stone throw, and it could not be smashed next to the city wall. When the trebuchet threw half an hour later, a cloud ladder began to lean on the city wall, the siege officially began, one by one the knife hit the horizontal bite in the mouth, quickly climbed up, the defenders of the city first shot with bows and arrows, and then stones, the wooden rolling stones of the city, and the officers and soldiers on the arrow tower of Zhang Jie's department were also shooting arrows to the enemy troops on the city wall. In the era of cold weapons, there is nothing more tragic than siege warfare, which is why the great military strategists throughout the ages have taken siege as the next policy, and the best strategy is to surrender without a fight.

But Zhang Jie couldn't attack, watching the soldiers who climbed the ladder being smashed and falling Zhang Jie's heart was also dripping blood, this was only the first day, and the battle lasted for nearly an hour. Zhang Jie, stop. Mingjin withdraws his troops.

When the soldiers retreated and counted the number of people, nearly a thousand died, and a thousand were wounded, and many of the wounded certainly did not survive.

Zhang Jie was very heartbroken, how many people would have to die if he attacked like this? Looking at the tragic battlefield, Fu Zhu, Jia Xu, Zhao Yun and others didn't say a word.

Zhang Jie said: Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a person in a deep dream. After saying that, Zhang Jie sat motionless on the ground, and everyone also felt a lot of emotion.

Since Gongsun Zhan had long been ready to defend the city, there were many wooden rolling stones to defend the city. But Gongsun Zhan's side is not so good that it is, Zhang Jie's arrow tower is too powerful and condescending. And the arrows didn't stop as if they didn't want money. Gongsun Zan heard the report of his subordinates that there were more than 1,000 casualties, and generally speaking, Zhang Jie's casualties were larger, but they were the besieging party, and the casualties in defending the city were so large, Yan Gang said: The main thing is that Zhang Jie's arrow tower is too threatening, and most of our casualties come from the crossbowmen on the arrow tower.

Tian Yudao: You can bring more shields tomorrow, today is the first day. Many soldiers were in a hurry, so the casualties were greater, but Zhang Jie was not much better, his casualties were even greater. As long as we can hold on to the first few days, the sharpness of the Jizhou Army will be discharged, and it will be easy to do in the future. Gongsun Chan said: Good!

Zhang Jie said to Wei Yan: Wen Chang will release smoke according to the method you said tomorrow, attack the north gate, and the other two gates, feint, and tell the soldiers that whoever is the first to kill on the city wall will be rewarded with a hundred gold! Ming said that the siege was under your command. Promise! Gonghe, we must do a good job in the medical and metallurgical work of the wounded soldiers, try to save them as much as possible, let the soldiers drink boiled water, and the dead brothers should be buried in a centralized manner, and in the future, a big monument should be erected here to build a martyr's cemetery. Promise!
