Chapter 472: Losing Soldiers and Losing Generals (Asking for Subscription)

Fifty roaring boulders smashed into the soldiers who were pushing the well forward, although the well in front of them had cowhide to block the arrows shot from the city, but in front of the boulder was so fragile, more than ten soldiers were hit by the boulder, miserable, let out a painful wail, although the two boulders did not hit the soldiers, but smashed in the open space between the soldiers, the splashing of stone chips, caused a lot of trouble to the Jizhou army.

One of them was hit by three boulders and broke off at the waist, and the archers on the well could not dodge, and fell to the ground with the well, splashing dust and smoke, but the soldiers who were hit by the well let out hysterical screams.

There are a total of twenty wells that attack Dangyin City, but in the face of the boulders flying from the city, the soldiers who pushed the wells are all terrified, this is not an arrow, it is a stone flying from the city, such a power is not to say resist, I am afraid that even the shield can't stop it, death is not terrible, but in the face of irresistible death, there will inevitably be a big shadow in the heart.

This also caused many soldiers to keep looking ahead when pushing the well, and once a boulder flew again, they could dodge as quickly as possible.

On the battlefield, once the order to attack is given, the soldiers can only advance and not retreat, otherwise they can only be greeted by the swords and guns of the robes.

"There is this thing in the field, why haven't the spies found it?" Yuan Shao asked with a low face.

Feng Ji arched his hand and said: "I'm afraid this thing is the thing used by the Bingzhou army when it seized Jiguan, Zhang Liao is cautious, and he is very strict with this thing, and the spies can't touch the things in the army." ”

"If you break through the Yin, these things belong to Benhou." Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Order the soldiers to attack Dangyin City, and the soldiers and horses in the city are no more than 4,000 people." ”

"Whoa." Zhang He took the order and left, Wen Chou died, Yan Liang was captured, and Zhang He's status in the army was also greatly improved.

"Don't worry about the wells, aim at the soldiers." Zhang Liao ordered.

The soldier who controls the Thunderbolt is suddenly much faster, although the Thunderbolt has been improved by Ma Jun and has made great progress in the quasi-head, but it needs to be aimed for too long, and the launch speed of a Thunderbolt itself is very difficult.

The city was densely packed with enemy troops, and the soldiers who operated the thunderbolts only had to throw boulders off the walls without aim.

The boulders that kept flying down from the city caused great panic to the siege of the Bingzhou army, but they saw with their own eyes that a soldier holding a shield was directly stoned to death by the boulder, and the shield in his hand was also smashed by the boulder, and the death was extremely miserable.

"Kill!" As soon as a general in front of him finished giving the order, he felt that it was dark in front of him, a boulder left him outside the city forever, his head bloomed, and the tragic situation of the general's death also deeply stimulated the surrounding soldiers, if it were not for the soldiers on both sides who were eyeing the battlefield, they would definitely not come forward.

After dodging the thunderbolt, the soldiers of the Jizhou army were greeted by a dense number of arrows, as for the archers on the well, the damage to the city was very small, on the contrary, they had to take care of their own lives, because the archers of the Jizhou army were too powerful.

On such a battlefield, all wounded soldiers basically have no way to live, and Pao Ze will not stop because of their screams, unless they are at the level of generals, they will be taken to the rear for treatment, and no one cares about the life or death of ordinary soldiers.

A cloud ladder was hung on the head of the city, and without Zhang Liao's order, two or three soldiers used a hard push to push the cloud ladder down, which made the Jizhou soldiers below a little flustered.

"Beat the drums!" Yuan Shao shouted when he saw the soldiers start to climb the ladder.

The drums on the battlefield suddenly became dense, and the soldiers of the Jizhou army besieging the city understood that it was time to fight hard.

A soldier who had just climbed the city wall had no time to swing his blade when a spear pierced his body and fell from the city.

Sticky wood is fatal to soldiers on ladders, and often a single piece of wood can make all the soldiers who are climbing the ladder fall.

It was an unfair battle, and the garrison not only had sharp weapons such as thunderbolts, but also plenty of arrows and wood in the city.

The loss of the Jizhou army at this time was about ten to one with the defenders.

As the sun set, countless times the Jizhou army attacked the city, the head of the city was driven down by the tenacious Bingzhou army, and the thunderbolt car also kept raging in the siege army.

"Mingjin retreats!" Yuan Shao saw that it was getting late, and ordered.

The siege of the Jizhou army retreated like a tide, Zhang Liao also breathed a sigh of relief, the number of the Jizhou army is twice the number of the defenders in the city, a little accidentally by the Jizhou army on the city wall to gain a firm foothold, want to hold the Yin again, it becomes very difficult, in this battle, the Jizhou army caused the greatest damage is the archers, but the most feared Jizhou army is the thunderbolt, they would rather face the archers than face the unstoppable boulder.

After counting the losses, Yuan Shao's face was not very good-looking, and he lost 2,000 soldiers in just one day of attack.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there are weapons in the city to defend the city, but there is a good way to break the enemy?" Yuan Shao glanced around at everyone and said, although his side has a sharp weapon like a bed crossbow, but in the siege battle, it is obvious that the thunderbolt has the upper hand, in contrast, the distance of the thunderbolt attack is farther than the bed crossbow, and the well is also lost a small half in the siege.

"Lord, the things that can throw boulders off the city wall, although powerful, but the speed is slow, if the army approaches the city wall at a very fast speed, these things will lose their effect, the key is how to suppress the defenders of the city." Xu You said: "The archers on the well are also dead, and in the long run, even if they capture Dangyin, our army will also suffer heavy casualties." ”

"Order the fine work in the city to destroy these things at all costs." Yuan Shaodao.

Feng Ji had a bitter face, and it was impossible to destroy the thunderbolt in the heavily guarded Dangyin City.

"Lord, why don't you divide the troops into three ways to attack Dangyin, the defenders in the city are only a few thousand, it may be okay to defend one city wall, but if you defend three city walls, you will not be able to catch it." Feng Ji suggested.

Everyone put forward a lot of suggestions, at this time, it is very simple for strategists to become famous, as long as the strategy can be adopted, the status in Jizhou will be greatly improved, which is also the reason why the generals in the army do not dare to underestimate any literati in peacetime, because I don't know when, these literati may become superiors, and the literati want to rectify the person, basically there is no need to make a move, just need to move their mouths.
