The soldiers in charge of defending the city on the castle tower quickly brought stones, sandalwood, boiling water, etc., all of which were placed on the castle tower.

The drums of war rushed into the sky, and the trumpets sounded for a long time.

The army under Yuan Shao's command roared, and had already launched the most ferocious charge.

"Archer, prepare!"

Tian Yu did not panic in the slightest and immediately ordered.

One by one, archers emerged from the city walls, stood inside the female walls, and aimed at the soldiers who were attacking from under the walls. The soldiers set up their bows and shot arrows, the sharp roar broke through the air, and one by one the bows and arrows pierced the sky, and the dense bows and arrows fell like a rain of arrows, shooting on the bodies of the soldiers of the Yuan army.

"Poof! Poof! ”

The arrows were sharp and pierced into the body.

The bow and arrow are messy shots, either in the body, in the thighs of the soldiers, or in the face of the soldiers, in short, there are many tricks, it is difficult to count......

The dense rain of arrows caused a great obstacle to the charging Yuan soldiers.

Groups of soldiers fell, dead under bows and arrows.

Tian Yu stared at the soldiers attacking outside the city tower, his eyes were sharp, and after the reinforcement soldiers approached the city tower for fifteen zhang, he waved his big hand, stopped the soldiers from shooting arrows, and ordered: "Prepare thistles!" ”

As the words fell, another soldier stood up with a dustpan on the city tower.

"Throw!"

With a low roar, the soldiers struggled to throw the thistles out of the dustpan.

Tribulus terrestris, also known as tribulus terrestris, is an iron thorn smelted with iron. There are a total of four iron thorns in the thistle, the shape is like a regular triangular pyramid, no matter how it is thrown, after falling to the ground, three iron thorns fall to the ground, and one iron thorn is facing upward. In particular, the four iron thorns of the thistle terrestris are about a few inches long, and whether it is a war horse or a soldier, they will be pierced when they step on it.

The soldier scattered it with a dustpan, and the thistles fell.

Jingling! Jingling!

One by one, the thistles fell to the ground, three iron thorns were firmly propped up on the ground, and the other iron thorn was facing upward.

Yuan Shao's soldiers rushed up and encountered the iron thistle terrestris that had landed.

As soon as he stepped on it, there was a pop, and the iron spikes directly penetrated the footboard, dripping with blood, and a wail erupted.

The thistle terrestris fell densely on the ground, and the lethality was very strong.

This block is even more powerful than a bow and arrow.

Bows and arrows can be fended off with steel knives, but thistles are difficult to deal with when they fall to the ground. Because there were so many soldiers charging, all the soldiers were rushing forward and couldn't stop at all. Once stopped, it must be hit by the soldiers rushing up from behind, and the body unconsciously rushes forward, and when you step on it, you will be hit immediately.

The siege of the city soon reached Yuan Shao's ears, and Yuan Shao had a gloomy face, staring at Tian Yu's position on the city tower. I didn't expect that a small county order would have so many tricks, it's really surprising!

"Pass the order, the first person to attack the city tower will be rewarded with a hundred gold!"

"Kill the person who ordered the county, and the reward will be a thousand gold!"

"The person who captures the county order will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the official will be promoted to one level!"

Yuan Shao gave three orders in a row, and there must be brave men under the so-called heavy rewards, and after the soldiers got Yuan Shao's orders, they were even more ferocious, like a desperate hungry wolf. These soldiers themselves are about to attack the city, and they have already hung their heads on their belts to fight, and they can only risk their lives to fight, and there is no other choice.

Yuan Shao gave a rich reward, and the soldiers charged hard.

Even if there is a dense iron thistle in front of them, even if there are bows and arrows shooting, it is difficult to stop the soldiers from charging.

Shouting and killing, wave after wave!

Tian Yu stood on the city tower with a serious expression, and a solemn look flashed in his eyes.

This battle is not easy!

But no matter what, Tian Yu could only insist. Seeing that the soldiers of the Yuan army outside the city rushed through the area where the thistle was located, they had already moved closer to the city tower, and began to attack the city with cloud ladders, cloud carts, siege vehicles, etc., Tian Yu no longer hesitated, and asked the soldiers to attack with sassal wood, boiling water, boiling oil, etc., Tian Yu even used lime, and sprinkled it directly with lime.

Tribulus terrestris piercing the foot plate can heal, but lime sprinkled inside the eyes is difficult to heal. With such a ruthless defensive method, Tian Yu was also helpless, and he had to stop the soldiers of the Yuan army from attacking the city.

However, even if lime was used, it still could not stop the pace of Yuan's army attacking the city.

There were countless casualties, but there were still Yuan soldiers who killed on the city tower.

At first, the soldiers on the city tower blocked the Yuan soldiers who rushed up, and gradually, more and more Yuan soldiers rushed up, but the soldiers on the city tower did not have enough strength to block these attacks. There is no commander to lead the troops, there are no brave soldiers to fight, and only with the county government forces mastered by Tian Yu, they are overstretched and difficult to resist.

Tian Yu was well prepared, but his soldiers were struggling to hold on.

At this time, Tian Yu had also participated in the fight.

Tian Yu held a long sword in his hand and kept slashing the soldiers who rushed up. He was covered in blood, his face was stained with blood, and his eyes were red. But more and more Yuan soldiers made it difficult for Tian Yu to resist, and gradually lost his support.

Yuan Shao saw the situation on the city tower, and the corners of his mouth hooked into a smile.

There is no suspense in this battle.

However, when he saw Tian Yu's defense, he felt that Tian Yu was a bit capable. If there are fierce generals who are good at fighting on the battlefield on the castle tower, and there are also fierce soldiers stationed in the castle tower, it is impossible for the soldiers under his command to gain a firm foothold on the castle tower easily. Thinking of Tian Yu's arrogant attitude before, and now he was about to become a prisoner, or a cold corpse, Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel proud.

This is the end of those who oppose him.

"Report!!"

With a panicked voice, it came from the rear of the army.

After Yuan Shao heard this, his expression cooled down.

The soldier ran quickly, turned over and dismounted in front of Yuan Shao, but before the soldier had time to report the news, Yuan Shao threw out a whip, whipped it on the soldier's body, and shouted: "What are you panicking, say something slowly." ”

"Yes! Be! ”

The soldier endured the pain and replied: "The rear army is attacked, and the Jizhou army is attacking." ”

Brush!!

Yuan Shao's complexion changed greatly, and he instantly became the color of pork liver.

Right now, it is the critical time for him to attack Ping'en County, and in one more hour, or even an hour, he can completely capture Ping'en County. At this time, the Jizhou army actually killed, and Zhang Jaw and Fu Zhu actually rushed over with the army to support, which made Yuan Shao's throat feel like a fly stuck in his throat, which was extremely uncomfortable.

"Report!!"

Another soldier came running with a panicked look on his face.

The soldier reported: "The Jizhou army has broken through the defense line of the rear army and is killing quickly!" ”

Yuan Shao's mood sank even more, and his face was ugly.

Xu You sighed lightly and persuaded: "Lord, the situation is unfavorable, withdraw for the time being." ”

Guo Tu also nodded and echoed: "My lord, Fu Zhu and Zhang Jaw came with the army, although they temporarily solved the predicament of Ping'en County, but they were also involved in the war and fell into the war in Ping'en County. Next, we not only have to capture Ping'en County, but also Frustration and Zhangjaw together. Avoid their edge for a while, and then attack. ”

Yuan Shao listened to the words of the two strategists, and he was still unhappy in his heart.

Angry!

Why is it that every time at a critical time, someone disturbs his good deeds.

"Mingjin retreats!"

Yuan Shao reluctantly ordered, and the sound of gongs resounded throughout the battlefield. When the soldiers of the Yuan army who were attacking Ping'en County heard this, they were confused at first, but quickly retreated. The dense army withdrew, and the soldiers defending the city tower instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

Tian Yu had a strange look on his face, what the hell is going on?

The city tower is about to fall, why did Yuan Shao suddenly withdraw at this time?
