Chapter 624: Fighting at the head of the city

Please remember the URL of this site: . Zhao Yun stood tall. The angular face is calm as usual. He is neither humble nor arrogant to make plans and plans. After Wang Lei listened. I was very surprised. I didn't expect Zhao Yun to adopt such a dangerous strategy.

This strategy. Wang Lei agreed.

If Zhao Yun's strategy succeeds. It will be easy to take down Lu County.

Zhao Yun looked at Wang Lei. In a deep voice, "I want to complete the plan. We also need the cooperation of the state pastor."

Wang Lei said without hesitation: "No question. I fully cooperate."

"Thank you."

Zhao Yun stopped talking. Turn around and leave.

He walked to the tent door. There was a pause in the pace. But the next moment . Another step. Strode out of the tent. Wang Lei looked at the back of Zhao Yun leaving. There was a burst of joy in my heart.

Zhao Yun served under his command. Wang Lei is fully sure that he will take Zhao Yun for his own use.

Former. Zhao Yun plays for Gongsun Zhan. Not trusted everywhere. Not subject to reuse. However. Wang Lei and Gongsun Chan are different. Wang Lei gave Zhao Yun enough trust and support. Wang Lei believes. There will definitely be comparisons in Zhao Yun's heart. And Wang Lei needs to do. It's the work of grinding with water. Gradually let Zhao Yun recognize the Jizhou Army. Let Zhao Yun treat himself as a member of the Jizhou Army.

……

Next. Early morning.

The drums of war burst on. The majestic sound breaks the silence of the morning light. As the drums of war echo in the sky. Wang Lei dispatched troops. Led the Jizhou army to slowly approach the county seat of Lu County.

On the head of the city. Xu Rong, Gande, Dai Yan and others were waiting for them.

There was a puzzled look in Gander's eyes. Said: "General. We took it and the state. No less than 50,000 state troops were recruited. Plus the troops of the general's lineage. With the power we currently have. Not weaker than Wang Lei. Why defend it."

Xu Rong said: "You can choose a defensive strategy. Why take a head-on attack. True. Before the constant harassment. The morale of the Jizhou army was more or less affected. But Wang Lei has just arrived in Lu County. The Jizhou army is still strong. Morale is still high. Fight back at this time. Obviously, it is a matter of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 of yourself. Wait for Wang Lei to attack the city and be frustrated. Between two fires. Fight again."

Zheng Gong, Dai Yan and others wanted to speak and stopped. was stopped by Xu Rong with his eyes. Xu Rong flicked his sleeves. He commanded, "Pass the order. Cheer up the soldiers of the pioneer battalion. Give it your all."

The so-called Pioneer Battalion. It's not a descendant army under Xu Rong. It was after Xu Rong entered the state. Gathered soldiers.

Gander, Zheng Gong and others replied loudly. One by one, they returned to their respective positions. Prepare to meet the Jizhou army.

The sound of war drums. More and more high-pitched and excited.

The sound of the trumpet. Reverberates in the air.

Over the county seat of Lu County. The smell of war fills the air. It didn't take long. The Jizhou army came outside the city.

"Archers. Ready."

A loud voice shouted. The archers came quickly to the front.

"Room."

After a short pause. Another loud shout. At the same time, it was accompanied by the shaking of the flag.

Bow and arrow on a bowstring. Out of the strings.

The buzzing of the bowstring. Reverberates in the air. Form a unique melody. Xu Rong saw this scene. The look remains the same. Ordered the soldiers to raise their shields to resist. A dense rain of arrows swept across the air. Fall on the city.

"Duh. Duh.."

Bow and arrow shot at the shield. The sound of crashing came and went.

Under the cover of bows and arrows . The vanguard of the Jizhou army began to charge.

Siege weapons such as ladders, crashes, catapults, etc. Rolling and rolling closer to the city walls.

Killing morale. The momentum of the siege is high-pitched and pressing.

The soldiers of the Jizhou army came to the city. And at this time. Siege engines have already begun to move. Pounding on the gates. Makes the gates rattle.

The gates shook. The defenders of the city defended with oaks, boulders, etc. Blocking the attack of the Jizhou army.

The ladder is close to the city walls. Quickly assembled. With the soldier constantly pulling the rope. The main ladder of the ladder is constantly rising. In the end, it was level with the city wall. The soldier climbed up the ladder of the ladder. A wide plank was erected directly on the main ladder.

"Kill. Take Lu County."

The soldier yelled. Run along the planks to the city.

One by one, the soldiers of the Jizhou Army kept climbing and running. Go fast.

Gander carries a knife. yelled: "Block. Block it for me." His eyes were fierce. Constant slashing and slashing. Stop the soldiers rushing up the ladder. However. Outside the city, there are ladders one after another. More and more Jizhou soldiers killed Shangcheng.

The two sides are in close arms in the city. The fight is getting more and more intense.

Xu Rong personally commanded. But I didn't panic at all. Calm and calm.

Zheng Gong said: "General. More and more Jizhou soldiers killed Shangcheng. Relying only on the recruited soldiers. Difficult to block attacks. Please give the general an order. Send the troops stationed under the city into battle."

Xu Rong looked serious. Unquestionably, he said, "No. It's not time to send a large army yet."

Zheng Gong was helpless. I had to keep defending.

Wang Lei observed the battle situation in the city outside the city. See a scene from the city. Eyes narrowed. There was even more doubt in his eyes. This siege. The battle was fierce though. But from the very beginning of the war. The Jizhou army was very smooth. Easily kill the city walls. On the other hand, Xu Rong's soldiers. Constant resistance. It's like stubborn resistance. The combat effectiveness is not strong.

Frustrated and excited, he said, "My lord. This battle. We're going to win."

In fact. The siege was also considered beforehand. I think it will take a lot of effort to defeat Xu Rong. But the defense of the city was weak. Let the frustrated professor shake his head in his heart. Xu Rong is just a wasted person.

The war continues. More and more Jizhou troops were killed in the city.

Xu Rong still did not dispatch the rest of the soldiers. He personally commanded the army to resist. Under the command of Xu Rong. The unfavorable situation of the defenders of the city counterattacked again and again. Blocked the Jizhou army that was on the offensive. Beat back the Jizhou army again and again.

The battle began early in the morning. Lasts until evening. Still no winner or loser.

Frustrated, judged, and others saw this. Don't dare to underestimate Xu Rong anymore. I didn't expect Xu Rong to be able to block the attack.

"Mingjin withdraws his troops."

It's approaching night. Wang Lei gave the order to collect the troops.

The Jizhou army slowly retreated. Xu Rong stands on the city. A long sigh of relief. He breathed a sigh of relief. Eyes rolled. It fell on Gander, Dai Yan, Zheng Gong and You Yong. Seeing the four of them sitting directly on the cold corpse, gasping for breath. Pout. He scolded in a deep voice: "It's not time to completely relax. Summons the order to go down. Soldier resting on the side. While being on guard. Prevent the enemy from attacking the city again."

"No."

Gander nodded. Immediate summons.

The soldiers defending the city were given orders. Although I was so tired that I didn't want to move. But they had to obey orders.

Xu Rong glanced at the soldiers on the upper floor of the city. Rejoice in your heart.

If the soldiers who were previously incorporated did not have edges and corners. So these soldiers who have gone through bloody battles. in order to sharpen the edges and corners. How many soldiers will die in this battle. Xu Rong didn't take it to heart. Xu Rong cares about the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the army. After a bloody battle. Soldiers are used to fighting. Combat effectiveness can go further.
