The next day, Zhang Chun gathered the main force of the rebels to prepare to attack the city, Zhang Chun and a group of rebel generals rode horses to stand at the front of the army, behind there were 22,000 infantry, 3,000 cavalry and dozens of ladders made overnight, the quality of these ladders is not very good, because it was made overnight, and there were few craftsmen in the rebels, fortunately, there were still a lot of trees outside Jicheng, so dozens of simple ladders were also built overnight.

"The former army obeys the order and fills the moat." Zhang Chun ordered. Originally, Zhang Chun planned to catch some people from nearby as cannon fodder, but he didn't expect Yao Jie to give Liu Yu advice a long time ago, and most of the people nearby were evacuated to Jicheng, so Zhang Chun's abacus was empty, so he could only bite the bullet and let the troops fill the moat with huge casualties.

With Zhang Chun's order, a group of soldiers with shields charged at the front, followed by a pair of soldiers carrying sacks on their backs, which were filled with dirt.

Because the moat of Jicheng is not abundant, it is not too deep, and the width is average, and it is not comparable with those fortified cities in the Central Plains at all.

"Shoot the arrows." Chen Fan, the general on the city wall, ordered. Liu Yu was also self-aware and knew that he was not good at military affairs, so he handed over the command of defending the city to more reliable generals in his hands.

Of course, I don't know to what extent this is reliable, in history, Liu Yu's 100,000 horse infantry army was actually crushed by only 3,000 white horse Yicong, Liu Yu's troops were defeated and retreated to defend Juyong Pass, and then Gongsun Zhan, who took advantage of the victory, broke through Juyong Pass, captured Liu Yu and his generals alive, and led the people to kill back to Jicheng, it can be seen that Liu Yu's generals are extremely military and have a lot of dishes.

With Chen Fan's order, hundreds of archers on the city wall released arrows at the same time, but the hit rate was very touching, two-thirds of the hundreds of arrows missed, and most of the remaining nearly 100 were blocked by shields, and a round of arrow rain, the rebels only suffered more than 20 casualties.

"All the eyes are long-a**? I shot it for Lao Tzu. Chen Fan scolded angrily.

The rebels under the city saw that the defenders of Jicheng were so wasteful, and their morale was suddenly shocked, the improvement of archery skills could not be completed overnight, and in the end, although Chen Fan kept roaring, the defenders' archery skills were also very touching.

At noon, after several hours of hard work, the rebels finally filled a fifty-meter road through the moat, and paid less than 2,000 casualties.

"The whole army attacked and took Jicheng in one fell swoop." Zhang Chun pulled out his sword and ordered.

On the city wall of Jicheng, the recruits and the people looked at the rebels under the city, cold sweat continued to break out behind them, and their hands and feet trembled a little, and the number of people was boundless as soon as they exceeded 10,000, not to mention that Zhang Chun ordered the whole army to press, and more than 20,000 people attacked together, these recruits and people naturally felt the huge pressure, not to mention these soldiers, even Chen Fan was constantly sweating, but he was still competent, and immediately shouted: "Archers prepare." ”

The defenders with weak hands and feet picked up their bows and arrows again, aiming at the rebels under the city, this time the rebels played the tactics of crowds, if the defenders could still play normally, they would definitely be able to cause huge casualties to the rebels, but the bows and arrows shot by these defenders only flew out of fifty steps and fell tremblingly, the damage was very limited, and the rebels were demoralized again, one by one screaming and rushing to the city wall, and the foremost was the ladder hand.

The cloud ladder quickly hung on the city wall, there were no too powerful weapons to defend the city in Jicheng, only some rolling stones, radium wood, as for the gold juice, sorry, this primitive biochemical weapon has not yet appeared.

The sparse rolling stone radium wood on the city wall did not stop the rebel attack, and soon, the first rebel soldier climbed the city wall, but he was soon pierced by several spears, but more and more rebels climbed the city wall, and the defenders were soon at a disadvantage, how could these recruits who had not seen blood defeat these battle-hardened rebels under Zhang Chun.

Soon the rebels had the upper hand, and Zhang Chun soon discovered the situation and immediately ordered: "Quick, the Han army is almost dead, rush forward." ”

Zhang Hong was a famous fierce general in the rebel army, quite brave, at this time Zhang Hong had already climbed the city wall with a big sword, and soon several Han soldiers died under his sword.

Chen Fan also noticed him, and immediately ordered: besiege the rebel general, take off his head, and reward one hundred taels, stimulated by money, several rebels rushed over like chicken blood, but the big knife in Zhang Hong's hand made them realize the reality, in a hundred taels of gold is not so easy to take, for a while, many Han troops retreated to the back, not daring to step forward.

Chen Fan's order was also noticed by Zhang Hong, he quickly gathered a rebel army to kill dozens of Han soldiers in front of him, and went straight towards Chen Fan, Chen Fan did not retreat, pulled out his sword and stood with Zhang Hong, but the gap between the two was too big, Zhang Hong slashed at Chen Fan's sword, shocked Chen Fan's mouth numb, even retreated a few steps, Zhang Hong was unforgiving, immediately chased up, Chen Fan had no choice but to continue to fight, only five rounds, Chen Fan was beheaded by Zhang Hong. The recruits and militia on the city wall who were about to collapse collapsed directly, although several captains tried their best to stabilize, but these already stupid rout troops could not be stopped, under their leadership, more and more soldiers began to disperse, several captains looked at the scene in front of them, and could only shout "subordinates did their best." Then he led his own soldiers to fight to the death, and the resistance of the hundreds of men was soon overwhelmed by the rebels.

Zhang Chun, who was outside the city, looked at the rebel soldiers who poured into Jicheng like a tide, and laughed: "The city is just around the corner. However, his Han army, which had wiped out his 5,000 Wuhuan cavalry, seemed to have been selectively forgotten by him.

Yang Wen on the side seemed to want to remind, but looking at Zhang Chun, who was proud, he finally stopped the idea of dying, Zhang Chun is not a good person, when he has no idea, Zhang Chun will ask other people's strategies, other times, especially when he is complacent, no one dares to jump out and disagree with him, otherwise he will die.
