Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Huyang County Ling Lianfeng and County Lieutenant Guo Deng may not be capable people, but they are indeed very good at defending the city.

Li Yi entered Huyang for nearly a month, Lian Feng and Guo Deng were never closed, but they were not idle in the city, they gathered the strong men in full swing, and stored a large number of rolling wood, gravel and fire oil on the city, and waited for the battle.

The next morning, according to Liu Xiu's tactics, Li Yi and Deng Yu left the camp one after another.

Li Yi went straight to Nancheng, and Deng Yu went to Dongcheng. At the same time, 300 elites led by Liu Xiu left the camp along the south gate of the camp and marched all the way south.

The direction they traveled was opposite to Huyang City, and it seemed that they were planning to go back to Caiyang, but after walking for two or three miles, Liu Xiu changed the direction of travel, made a big circle, and quietly marched towards the west city of Huyang.

Halfway through the morning, when it was time to attack, Deng Yu and Li Yi both gave the order to attack the city. Neither of them launched an all-out onslaught at first, but sent a small force of troops and made a tentative attack.

When the attacking soldiers entered within 100 steps of Huyang, it was already within range of Huyang City, but strangely, there were no arrows shooting down from the city.

Seeing this, the corners of Li Yi's mouth hooked, and he ordered the drums to beat left and right. Drumming to march and Mingjin to withdraw troops is a military signal that has not changed for thousands of years.

As the drums sounded, the two hundred soldiers sent by Li Yi all used their strength to eat milk and ran towards Huyang City at full speed.

When they were less than thirty steps away from Huyang City, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded on the top of the city, and they saw an arrow fly into the air, draw an arc, and fall sharply from the sky.

With this sound of arrows, hundreds of officers and soldiers stood up behind the battlements at the head of the city, all armed with bows and arrows, and lowered arrows through the gaps between the battlements.

Airplanes!

A large rain of arrows flew down from the top of the city and smashed into the soldiers of the Lingling army, and in an instant, twenty or thirty people fell to the ground, and people's bodies, arms, and legs were full of arrows.

After the officers and men of the first platoon shot the arrows, they immediately retreated, and the officers and men with bows drawn behind them stepped forward to fill their positions, and continued to release arrows along the gap between the arrow stacks.

After the arrows were fired, the people did not look to see if they had hit the enemy outside the city, and immediately stepped back, allowing the officers and soldiers behind to continue to step forward to fill their positions. So repeatedly, I saw the arrows flying down from the head of Huyang City, one after another, really like raindrops, endlessly. Pity the two hundred Chungling soldiers who took the lead, under the continuous stream of arrows, the shields in people's hands

It becomes useless, it can't block the upper and lower, and the upper can't block the upper and lower, and once people are shot by stray arrows and fall to the ground, there is no chance to get up again, and their bodies are immediately covered by a rain of arrows.

Most of the two hundred soldiers had fallen in less than half a pillar of incense, and the rest of the men turned and ran back when they saw that they could not fight, but in this way, they fell faster.

They were only twenty or thirty paces away from Huyang City, and even if they ran twenty, thirty, or even fifty steps, they were still within the range of others.

The defeated Chungling soldiers did not fall to the ground one by one, but were nailed to the ground by a rain of arrows in groups.

It wasn't until the last soldier screamed and fell to the ground, and more than a dozen arrows covered him, that Li Yi, who was watching the battle, came back to his senses.

He roared, drew his sword from his side, and shouted, "Avenge the brother who died in battle!" Brothers, follow me to the city! ”

The 3,000 Chungling army led by Li Yi was arranged into six phalanxes in Qu (500 people for a song) and advanced in unison.

After the Chungling military array entered within a hundred steps of Huyang City, Li Yi shouted: "All raise their shields!" ”

The heralds around Li Yi ran quickly between the various formations, shouting as they ran: "Raise your shield!" All raise their shields! ”

The soldiers of each song raised the wooden shields in their hands above their heads, and in this way, a large combined giant shield was formed on the heads of all the formations.

When entering within eighty steps of Huyang City, Li Yi ordered that the third and fourth songs should be in front of each other, and the other four songs should be behind.

Li Yi did work hard in arranging the troops, commanding the siege of the 3,000 army in an orderly manner, no matter who was allowed to watch the battle, it was difficult to find fault with his arrangement.

The siege of 3,000 troops and the siege of 200 men cannot be compared, at least in the heart, it has caused great pressure on the defenders.

When the third and fourth phalanxes of the Chung Ling army were still sixty steps away from Huyang City, the arrow array on the head of the city smashed down.

Duh, duh, duh-

A raindrop of arrows smashed into the camp of the Lingling army, and the shield on the head of the phalanx quickly grew with a layer of 'black grass' at a speed visible to the naked eye, and this layer of black grass was still becoming denser.

The shield array can indeed effectively defend against the arrow array, but the shield array is not airtight. From time to time, arrows shot into the gaps in the shield array, and the screams of the soldiers could be heard from under the shield array from time to time.

However, in the phalanx, after one person fell, the people behind immediately stepped forward to fill in and continue to maintain the integrity of the shield array.

Under the cover of the shield array, although the advancing Chungling army also suffered casualties, the casualties were almost negligible.

When the phalanx advanced to about thirty steps away from Huyang, suddenly, several huge stones flew out from within Huyang City.

The stones flew into the air, over the city walls, and with a piercing whistling sound, they fell from the sky, smashed to the ground, and smashed into the crowd of the phalanx, and in an instant there was a terrible scream.

Li Yi and the others, who were walking behind, were a little frightened for a while when they saw these boulders flying out of the city.

After a while, Li Yi came back to his senses and shouted, "Stone thrower! There is a stone thrower in the city! Command the whole army to speed up! The whole army is moving faster! ”

Under the double attack of the defenders' catapults and arrow arrays, the casualties of the advancing Chung Ling army began to rise sharply.

The people did not dare to continue to advance step by step, so they could only charge forward with all their strength, so that the shield array could no longer maintain a monolithic plate, and when they charged, the soldiers were shot to the ground by arrows one after another. In the third and fourth songs, a total of 1,000 people, at the cost of more than 300 casualties, finally rushed to the bottom of the city wall, and then the people set up ladders and began to climb to the top of the city, and at the same time, the rolling wood, stones, and oil on the head of the city

, pouring down in one go. The battle on the south side of the city has gradually entered the white heat, the battle on the east side has also been fully launched, compared to the south city, the defense of the east city of Huyang is relatively weak, although the stone throwers are also arranged, but there are only three, and the threat to the attacking Chung Ling army is not there

Big. Li Yi and Deng Yu had already started a full-scale war with the defenders, and Liu Xiu, with three hundred elites, wandered unconsciously to a depression outside the west city of Huyang. Liu Xiu lay on the ground, slowly crawled to the edge of the depression, and raised his eyes to look at the distance

Huyang City. This place is about five miles away from Huyang, and even at such a distance, the sound of battle can be faintly heard, which shows the fierceness of the battle between the two sides.

After watching for a while, Liu Xiu retreated into the depression, he looked around and asked, "Are you all ready?" ”

Everyone squatting in the depression nodded to Liu Xiu in unison, and said in unison: "Ready!" ”

Liu Xiu nodded and said, "We are here, five miles away from Huyang City, everyone follow me and rush over!" ”

"Yes!"

Liu Xiu took the lead in climbing out of the depression and took the lead in running towards Huyang City. Feng Yi, Fu Jun, Zhu You, and Gai Yan followed, followed by three hundred elite soldiers. People followed Liu Xiu and ran in the direction of Huyang City. At this time, the defenders of Huyang City, the main forces are in the south city and the east city, and the number of defenders on the west side is really not much, it is less than three hundred people, and their attention is not on the outside of the west city, people sit on the head of the city, discuss

There was a battle between the south and east sides.

It wasn't until Liu Xiu and his party ran within a hundred steps that the defenders at the head of the city noticed it, and a soldier pointed to the outside of the city and shouted, "Why did someone run over?" Who is it? ”

Hearing the shouting, the defenders at the head of the city stood up one after another, looked out of the city, and after a while, they didn't know who it was, and exclaimed in a shriek: "Anti-army! It's the anti-army who came to Xicheng to sneak attack! ”

With this voice, the defenders at the head of the city suddenly became a mess. One of the soldiers at the head shouted repeatedly: "Don't mess around! Don't mess around, everyone! Archers! Archers release arrows! Come on, go to Nancheng quickly, and report the enemy situation to Lian County Commander and Guo County Lieutenant! fast

Go! ”

The archers who stayed here in Xicheng were only a pitiful dozen people, and they watched the enemy outside the city getting closer and closer, especially the one who was the leader, running fast.

More than a dozen archers twisted their bows and arrows, shooting arrows at Liu Xiu, who was the fastest.

More than a dozen arrows flew towards him, and Liu Xiu's running speed did not slow down, but became faster, but when he ran, his waist also bent forward, turning into a hairy waist and running forward.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Arrows whizzed over his head, snapping into the ground behind him. At the head of the city, the army led by the Hou saw clearly, pointed at Liu Xiu, who was constantly approaching the city wall, and shouted: "Shoot this thief!" Shoot this thief first! ”

It's not that the archers don't want to shoot Liu Xiu, but his speed is too fast, and before the arrows have flown to him, he has already run over first.

At this moment, beads of sweat appeared on the archers' heads, and people re-twisted their bows and arrows, and continued to shoot arrows at Liu Xiu.

The distance between the two sides was too close, and it was no longer possible to dodge the arrows by speed, and this time Liu Xiu changed to an S-shaped route, and the arrows that fell from the sky snapped to the ground beside him.

Until Liu Xiu rushed to the front of the city wall, not a single arrow hit him. An archer jumped onto the arrow stack, intending to continue firing arrows at Liu Xiu at the base of the wall.

At this moment, he heard a whooshing sound, and an arrow suddenly flew up from outside the city, and hit him in the neck. The archer didn't even scream, and fell on his back. This arrow came from Fu Jun, who followed Liu Xiu.

"It's him! It's him who fires arrows......" An officer and soldier poked his head out, pointed at Fu Jun outside the city, and shouted loudly to his companions around him. It's just that before he finished his words, Fu Jun's successive arrows hit him in the jaw.
