"Bang Bang Bang Bang~"

In the dense muffled sound, the two shield-wielding soldiers were forced to retreat by the force entrained on the arrow cluster, and had to squat down and protect Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang with their shields.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were a little confused, the number of this Cao army is not too much, why is the firepower so fierce?

"Lord, let's step back first!" Zhuge Liang said.

"It's fine." Liu Bei listened to the sound of being shot by arrow clusters on the dougong, it stands to reason that the strength of the arrow clusters shot at this distance is not large, but it can't stand the large number, and even the dougong itself is shaking slightly, and if it goes on like this, he is really worried that this dougong can't support it.

When even with Zhuge Liang came down from the dougong under the protection of the guards.

As soon as they left the range of the dougong, the pressure suddenly lightened a lot, and when the group got off the dougong, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang looked up, and they were suddenly a little confused.

On the other bucket arches, there are only a few arrows scattered and scattered, and on the bucket arch where he was just now, it is a dense piece, although most of them are bounced to the ground, but there are still a lot of bucket arches.

What's going on?

Don't say that Liu Bei is dumbfounded, Zhuge Liang also doesn't understand a little, isn't it that the other party found out where they were before?

Soon, the next wave of arrow rain came, standing at their angle, they could clearly see that the locust-like arrow clusters were diverted in the air, and most of the arrow rain fell to the dougong on this side, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang hurriedly led everyone to retreat in embarrassment, avoiding those arrow clusters that flew out.

"Kong Ming, this is ......" Liu Bei's eyelids jumped, the other dougongs were fine, only this dougong, as if there was an inexplicable attraction, made a large number of arrow clusters shoot towards this side.

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan, and the wind that came out was a little strong, blowing his beard fluttering, but his expression was surprisingly calm, shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "I'm afraid it's Bo Yuan's work, but in this way, it makes the pressure of defending the city less than half!" ”

Yes, the arrows are coming here, the pressure of defending the city has naturally been reduced a lot, the defenders of the city saw the arrows flying, they were ready to resign themselves to fate, who knew that the arrow clusters flew directly to the back, which made the soldiers defending the city a lot less pressure, and began to send arrows to counterattack, at this time, who cares where you shoot the arrows, don't shoot me.

The generals of the Cao army obviously also sensed that something was wrong, and immediately ordered the archers to shoot arrows in the direction of the city wall, the dougong was so far away, even if the arrows were shot, how much lethality could it have?

Under the order of the generals of the Cao army, the rain of arrows shot again was much more even, but the opportunity had been lost, coupled with the double-layer blows on the dougong and the city wall, the Cao army's sharp spirit had been frustrated, although it was still attacking, but the indomitable momentum was gone.

Even so, Liu Bei didn't want to go back to the bucket arch, feeling that the bucket arch was not only eye-catching, but also evil, no one could attract a large number of arrow clusters of attacks, if he was hit by mistake on it, then he might be the most dead monarch since the Yellow Turban Rebellion!

That's right, Liu Bei at this moment is unprecedentedly strong, because Zhuge Liang has already outlined a beautiful future blueprint for him, and his future is bright, at this time, he is naturally unwilling to stand in danger.

Although Liu Bei stayed in the dougong a little evil, but the other dougong is good, the soldiers inside not only have a long range, but also high accuracy, high morale, Cao Jun from the morning to dusk, but has never been able to attack the city, the rear of the thunderbolt, almost in the half, has been the four bed crossbows at the head of the city to give a little name, early exit from the battlefield.

Seeing that the sun has deviated, not only did he fail to break through a city guarded by hundreds of people, but his own side lost his troops and lost his generals, the general of the Cao army did not look good, but he could not rank, so he could only order Mingjin to withdraw his troops, and also made the garrison soldiers and civilians at the head of the city breathe a sigh of relief.

For the generals defending the city, it is another feeling, although there are many Cao troops today, but the pressure is not great, I don't feel that this is a siege war with a huge difference in the strength of the two sides, and they are on the weaker side.

He knew better why today's battle would be so easy, because these seemingly inconspicuous dougongs had an ultra-long range that was even farther and more accurate than the archers standing on the city wall in front of them, and the deterrent power brought by the bed crossbows set up at the head of the city, as well as some fragmentary baffles, and those haystacks that were still burning today, it was the existence of these things that allowed him to block the attack of Cao's army several times with less than one school of men and horses.

Casualties are inevitable, but such a result also makes Liu Yi's importance in Liu Bei's heart continue to rise, if he has enough soldiers and horses, and then there are such strange people to help, why fear the heroes of the world?

At this moment, Liu Bei was very eager to recruit Liu Yi into his command, and having this one person was better than thousands of troops!

"Lord, Cao Jun is just temporarily retreating, although the vanguard is now frustrated, but the main force of Cao Jun has arrived in Xinye, if Xiangyang has not responded, Fancheng can not be relied on, should think about retreating early!" After Zhuge Liang counted the battle losses, he came to Liu Bei's side, he was not as optimistic as Liu Bei, he had a hunch, he wanted to unite with Liu Cong to fight against Cao Cao's army as before, I am afraid he couldn't count on it, Xiangyang's affairs were somewhat beyond his expectations, and he didn't expect Cao Cao to go south immediately after Liu Biao's death, which made Liu Qi and Liu Cong's brothers kill each other, and Liu Bei cleaned up the chaos and took over Jingzhou.

Liu Bei nodded, although he did not have such a clear idea as Zhuge Liang in the overall situation, but when to escape, he was professional, he knew when to guard and when to run, there was no news from Xiangyang for a long time, and Liu Bei had also noticed that something was wrong.

"Yide!" After thinking about it, Liu Bei shouted at Zhang Fei on the side.

"Brother!" Zhang Fei strode over and said to Liu Bei: "What's the matter?" ”

"Fancheng can't be defended for a long time, you immediately order someone to demolish these dougongs!" Liu Bei said solemnly.

Although Fancheng is a small city, it is a military town in the area of Xiangyang, although he is not able to defend now, but it does not mean that he will not be able to fight back, these weapons to defend the city are in, if he wants to counterattack Xiangfan in the future, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort, it is better to demolish.

"Whoa!" Zhang Fei didn't care when he heard this, and called the people to dismantle those dougongs as soon as he agreed.

It's just that what makes people have a toothache is that these bucket arches are obviously made of wood, but they seem to be stronger than the city walls, and it took half a day to demolish one.

"Lord, when Mr. Bo Yuan left, he left a way to dismantle these dougongs...... "Xiahou Bo didn't finish speaking, he suddenly felt uncomfortable, Zhang Fei appeared behind him at some point, and his eyes were round.

Xiahou Bo subconsciously took a few steps back, bowed his head and said: "Mr. Boyuan said at that time that there may be changes in Xiangyang, if you can't do anything, you can dismantle the dougong according to the methods on these drawings...... Weekend...... It was only when the lord said it that he remembered it! ”
