Chapter 265: Xi Zhicai proposed a night attack, and the vine armor soldiers were frustrated in attacking the city

At dinner, Liu Bei led Xi Zhong and Xun You to the pass to check the situation of Meng Huo's camp, but found that Meng Huo had no intention of fighting at night.

So Xi Zhong thought to Liu Bei and proposed: "Lord, the vulture bone has just won for a while, and this is the time to be proud, if the scouts can find out the distribution of Meng Huo's camp."

Tonight, the general will lead the cavalry to rush and kill at the camp of Shen Mi and Lou Fa, and he will definitely be able to win a small victory, which can also improve our morale and destroy Meng Shu's prestige! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he felt that it made sense, so he summoned Zhao Yun and Guan Yu, and ordered the two to lead 15,000 cavalry to attack Meng Shu or Shen Mi's camp at night at the end of tonight.

Zhao Yun and Guan Yu took the order and left, and then Liu Bei sent scouts to investigate Meng Shu in detail, but found that Meng Shu's entire camp was divided into three parts.

The rattan armor soldiers are on the left, the Yizhou army is on the right, and Meng Huo's army is in the middle, so Zhao Yun and Guan Yu have made up their minds to enter from the right army, if they can kill from Meng Huo's middle army!

At night, at the time of the third watch, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu led the troops out, and the horses were wrapped in hooves, and they quietly killed Meng Huo's camp!

However, no matter how careful Zhao Yun and Guan Yu were, they didn't escape the eyes of the barbarian scouts on the trees on the side of the road, but the barbarians didn't ride horses, so they couldn't catch up with the cavalry in terms of speed!

In the end, two miles away from the camp, when Zhao Yun and Guan Yu were about to speed up their surprise attack, the barbarian scouts who followed behind the army let out a terrible scream.

Immediately followed by another sound, one after another, it was passed into Meng Shu's promise!

At this time, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu's army was just getting started! The distance of two miles is not too long, but at this time, Meng Yu already knew that this night attack would inevitably be greatly reduced!

It's just that Zhao Yun and Guan Yu didn't intend to let it go, when the speed of the war horse reached the extreme, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun reasonably picked up the fence of the camp, and then killed it!

As the two expected, some soldiers in Shen Mi's camp were already waiting for battle, and behind these soldiers, there were many soldiers who were dressed and assembled!

In the end, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu slashed and slaughtered in Shen Mi's army for a while, and when they saw that there was no chance of a big victory, they led their corporal to reflexively kill out of the camp!

Although there were no results in this night attack, there was no loss either!

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, the horn sounded in Meng Huo's army, and then a team of rattan armor soldiers slowly came to kill Jinsang Pass!

This time, Liu Bei led a group of generals to fight in the city in person!

"Report, lord, the enemy army is still a mile away from the city wall!"

"Report, lord, the enemy army is still one hundred and fifty zhang away from the city wall."

"Report to the lord, the enemy army is still a hundred feet away from the city wall."

Subsequently, Liu Bei ordered that after the enemy army entered the range of crossbow arrows, he ordered his hand to shoot fire crossbow arrows, enter the range of archers, and shoot crossbow arrows!

But Liu Bei wanted to confirm whether the rattan armor was burned all over the fire!

However, the result of the matter was exactly the same as Liu Bei's assumption, several rounds of shooting, and many rockets were pierced on the rattan armor, but it did not cause a raging fire. The moment all the vine armor soldiers were hit by the rocket, they took the lead in pulling out the rocket and throwing it away!

Therefore, there was no such thing as burning the rattan armor soldiers in the romance at all! And after several rounds of shooting, except for a small number of soldiers who were particularly unlucky and were shot in the face, the others did not suffer the slightest damage!

Seeing that the vine armor soldiers were getting closer and closer, Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei to lead 30,000 strong men to fight on the city wall with big shields!

This large shield is not a round shield with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, but a vertical shield more than one person high. The shield was made entirely of hard wood, and was covered with a layer of iron.

This is made by Xi Zhong in Jiaozhou, originally wanted to resist the cavalry when he fought Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou and other places from Jiaozhou, but now it is used to resist the rattan armor soldiers!

The wall ladders used by Meng Huo's rattan armor soldiers are all made according to the height of the city wall of Sangguan, so there is suddenly an extra shield close to one zhang on the city wall to raise the city wall by one zhang, so that the rattan armor soldiers who are climbing to the top of the ladder have no way to climb the wall at all.

In ancient times, the city walls were battlemented. There are generally two kinds of ladders for attacking the wall, one is super long, this kind of ladder is generally resting on the city wall with a relatively large angle of inclination, and the siege soldiers climb the rock, so that even if the defenders want to push the ladder away, there is no way!

There is also a short one, but this kind of ladder cannot directly expose the battlement, otherwise the defenders only need to use a spear to knock down the ladder, and it doesn't take much to kill several people in a row!

Moreover, during the siege of the city, when there are soldiers climbing the ladder, it is rare for soldiers to shoot arrows in the rear, but they are also afraid of accidentally injuring their comrades!

However, there is no such situation in this battle, the vine armor soldiers climbed the ladder at the front door and climbed the wall to prepare for battle, and the vine armor soldiers in the rear also kept shooting arrows without ambiguity!

However, with more than a shield in hand, everything changes! The vine armor soldiers stood at the top of the ladder and could go up the city wall, but they were blocked by a huge shield, and the arrows shot from under the city were only set on the shield and made a clanging sound!

However, Liu Bei was smart and not stupid, and when he saw that the vine armor soldiers could not win, he ordered all the vine armor soldiers to retreat.

Then, he ordered the soldiers to build an extra-long engineering ladder overnight, but he wanted to directly erect the ladder to the battlement and carry out the battle on the city.

In this way, two days later, the vulture bone sent soldiers to attack again, just like last time, Liu Bei sent thousands of large shield soldiers, this time because there are ladders beyond the battlement, so the vine armor soldiers can have a foothold on the city wall!

However, what all the vine armor soldiers did not expect was that this big shield was not used for defense, but for pushing, when the vine armor soldiers climbed to the battlement one by one, Hercules mixed the shields, and then the vine armor soldiers were pushed out of the city wall due to limited space, and countless people fell!

Of course, there are also rattan armor soldiers who have stayed on the city wall after a lot of hardship, but where is the siege of Liu Bei's many people, and they will be captured after a while!

Meng Yu saw that the vulture bone chain attacked the city in vain, so he also knew that this time he attacked Sangguan, and the strong attack was unintentional, so he could only outwit it, so he ordered the vulture bone Mingjin to withdraw his troops!

After all the vine armor soldiers retreated, Liu Bei had Xun You's plan to take all the more than 100 vine armor soldiers captured alive to the city wall, and then ordered Lu Bu to write a letter for these vine armor soldiers to bring to the vultures!

The content in it is very simple, first a scolding, then a fierce fight, and finally a battle with a vulture bone!

……

Seeing that Meng had received his troops, the vultures asked in confusion: "Barbarian King, although the attack is unfavorable this time, our army has not suffered much loss, and more importantly, there are already many soldiers who have attacked the city wall, and it only takes a little more time to win!" ”

But Meng Shu shook his head and said: "Brother doesn't know, if Liu Bei is so strict in the past few days, we will not be able to break the city!" So only outwitted! ”

Then he looked at Shen Mi, and then said, "Just now, General Shen had a plan to protect Liu Bei." ”

"Oh, what a plan, can you tell me about it?" Vulture asked.

"The rattan armor soldiers are invulnerable, if they can enter the Sangguan, no one can beat them. Then just open the city gate, and Liu Bei will naturally be defeated after the army enters the city! Shen Mi said!

"After I enter the city as a direct seller, Liu Bei will be defeated, but how to enter the city?" The vulture bone said with some unhappiness!

"In the coming day, the lord of the country can continue to feint and enter the Sangguan, and we will wait for the king of He Barbarian to dig a tunnel in the rear and enter the Sangguan, and then as long as the rattan armor soldiers are sent into the city, then Liu Bei will have everything to do!" Shen Mi said quite confidently!

Both the vulture and Meng Shu were overjoyed by this, and just as the three of them were about to act in a plan, there was a report from outside the tent that nearly 100 Teng armor soldiers had been released by Liu Bei!

The vulture was overjoyed about this, and returned to the camp to receive a hundred vine armor soldiers, but he also got a letter from Lu Bu, and then the vulture bone didn't know what to do, so he sent this letter to Meng Huo to let Meng Huo take the idea!

Meng was naturally overjoyed when he saw this letter, so he said to the vulture: "Brother, this is a good thing, brother can plan and fight with him to delay time!" ”

In this way, the vulture bone replied and promised to fight!

Everyone saw that the vulture bones were not Xun You's expectation, and promised to fight in front of the two armies early tomorrow morning, and they were overjoyed!

Therefore, this time, the two armies are happy and have their own plans! Who's better at chess, please listen to the next breakdown.
