Chapter 1308: The Fierce Battle of Nanchang (4)
At the same time, the black army led by Cao Cao also moved, one after another, among the weapons, there were huge ladder cars, and there were also towering huge rushing cars, which were big and iron, horses were armored, and cars were soldiers, moving extremely fast. There are also four-wheeled iron chariots, but it is said that this iron chariot is equipped with a pivot and bullets of stones. Because the sound is like thunder, it is called the thunderbolt car. It is said that in the Hebei War, Yuan Shao used the high turret to attack Cao Cao's army, and Liu Ye invented this thunderbolt to throw stones and break the high turret, which caused the Hebei army to be defeated. This thunderbolt was the ace weapon of the Wei army, and Cao Cao selected more than 1,200 brave men to be incorporated into the Thunderbolt army, which was led by Liu Ye.
LΓΌ Meng, Zhu Ran, Quan Cong and other generals were leading troops to fight with the three armies of Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Jaw, and Jiang Wei.
Sun Quan praised the enemy tower in the city, and at this moment, Lu Su's face suddenly changed, and he saw that the Wei army's weapons were divided into teams, and they pressed on a large scale. Hundreds of rushing vehicles rushed into the front line. Seeing this, Lu Su urgently instructed Sergeant Mingjin to withdraw his troops. When Sun Quan heard this, his face changed, and he asked quickly.
"Zijing!! Our army is gaining the upper hand, why should we withdraw at this time!? β
When Lu Su heard this, he hurriedly replied to Sun Quan.
"Wei Kou's weapons have been moved, first to rush the car first, our army to resist with manpower, it is really unwise, and first withdraw to the city, defend the city, and fight with Wei Kou!!"
When Sun Quan heard this, he suddenly realized. Lu Su quickly taught the sergeant to sing gold, and after a while, the horn sounded. Lu Meng, Zhu Ran, Quan Cong and other generals heard this, and they didn't do much entanglement, and they all ordered the soldiers and horses to retreat. The three armies of Zhang Jaw, Xiahou Yuan, and Jiang Wei were killed in chaos, and when they saw the Wu soldiers withdrawing, they couldn't catch up. Seeing that LΓΌ Meng and the others would quickly lead their troops back into the city, the city gate was closed and the drawbridge was retracted. Cao Cao saw it later, his eyes flashed a little different, he looked at Lu Su who was commanding the soldiers and horses in the city, and said with a sneer.
"Humph! It seems that this Lu Zijing also has some ability, no wonder Zhou Gongjin will deliberately leave a will and recommend this person to take over the position of the governor of Eastern Wu!! β
Cao Cao finished thinking about it, but he taught the rushing team to reduce the buffer momentum, and then waved the flag to make the cloud echelon forward, and at the same time issued a flag order to teach the front army to press forward. Zhang Jaw and other generals listened to the order, and immediately pressed on it, crossed the trench, and approached the city of Nanchang, either transporting soil to fill the trench, filling the river, or forming a shield array to cover. When Lu Su saw it, the soldiers on the city attacked him with arrows and stones. Suddenly, there was a loud bang, accompanied by countless screams. The battle was extremely fierce. The sergeants of both armies were red-eyed and fought desperately. After a while, ladder trucks and hundreds of ladders approached the city under the push and support of nearly 10,000 Wei soldiers. Seeing that the ladders were leaning against the women's wall, Lu Su's face was cold, and he gave an order. Lu Xun has been preparing for a long time, and immediately taught the soldiers to pour fish oil on the cloud ladder that came close, and the Wei soldiers under the city were about to take the cloud ladder to the city. Suddenly, countless fires flashed in the city, Jiang Wei's eyes changed drastically, and he hurriedly ordered the sergeant to retreat. Suddenly, a series of bowstrings roared, thousands of arrows were fired together, one rocket after another shot on the ladder, and suddenly burst out a piece of skyrocketing fire, the ladder on the female wall was exhausted, the Wei soldiers on the ladder were all burned to the ground, fell to the ground, fell to pieces, and many Wei soldiers around were affected, and there were many casualties. Cao Cao stared at him and shouted angrily.
"If the thief dares to burn my cloud ladder, I will attack it with a rushing car!!"
The ditch under the city has been filled in, with Cao Cao's order falling, the flag swayed, and a rushing car immediately flew up, looking at the north gate of Nanchang City. When Lu Su saw the convoy attacking, he was not afraid, and quickly gave another order. Lu Meng listened to the order and immediately taught the sergeant to prepare, and when he saw the rushing car approaching, he threw stones at it. One by one, when the car was hit by a boulder, it was immediately smashed to pieces, and all the soldiers in the car died. With a burst of roars, the rushing convoy was instantly destroyed by a third. Cao Cao's face was cold, and he didn't dare to despise Lu Su anymore. At this time, Liu Ye rode his horse and said quickly.
"Your Majesty!! Wu thieves have used clever tricks to break our army's weapons, and now the thunderbolt team has been prepared, why don't your majesty give an order to see how this Wu thief breaks it!? β
Cao Cao had this intention, and his eyes burst out in a flash
g light, as soon as he drank loudly, he gave the military order. Liu Ye received the order and hurried back to the formation. Seeing that the Wu soldiers were guarding the city, they used their own magic methods to break the weapons of the Wei soldiers and gain the upper hand. The Wei soldiers suffered more and more casualties, and now the sky was yellow, and the sun was setting in the western mountains, and it was almost dusk. The morale of the Wu soldiers in the city was greatly shaken, thinking that this battle would be a great victory.
Bang Bang~~!!
At this moment, suddenly, it was as if hundreds of thunderbolts were falling from the sky, and there were bursts of violent noise, shaking the heavens and the earth. When Sun Quan, Lu Su and the others looked at each other, they saw hundreds of boulders flying over like meteors. Sun Quan's face suddenly changed drastically in fright, and Lu Menghu was stunned and shouted.
"Your Majesty!! Hurry back to the enemy building to dodge!! β
Sun Quan's face was full of horror, and he was actually stunned by this terrifying scene.
LΓΌ Meng hurriedly pounced on Sun Quan and pulled Sun Quan into the enemy tower, and a group of soldiers also rushed in in a panic. I saw a large number of boulders, scattered and smashed down on the city wall, making a roar. Many Wu soldiers couldn't avoid it, and they were immediately smashed to pieces, and dozens of boulders flew directly into the houses in the city, killing many innocent people. Suddenly, the screams were earth-shattering and terrifying. Sun Quan came back to his senses, listening to the terrible screams in the city, his face became extremely hideous, his whole body trembled with anger, and he roared.
"Cao!! Old!!! Thief!!! β
After a roar, Sun Quan hurriedly came out to look, only to see that the city was in a mess, and more than a dozen sides were broken and fell to the ground. There were piles of broken wood and gravel everywhere, and horrific corpses were everywhere, red and bright. At this moment just now, at least hundreds of soldiers of the Wu army were stoned to death. Sun Quan's eyes burst into tears. At this moment, the Wei soldiers under the city attacked in a big way, and one after another rushed the cars approached, and the arrows on the cars shot indiscriminately, rushing over. Lu Su's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly commanded the soldiers and horses to meet the attack, but just now, most of the Wu soldiers were frightened, and they had not yet come to their senses. When Lu Meng, Lu Xun and other generals saw this, they hurriedly shouted loudly and commanded the soldiers, and at this time, the people and horses of each team reacted one after another, or shot arrows, or threw stones to counterattack. It's just that just when the Wu soldiers began to fight back, the terrifying thunderbolt suddenly rose again. When Lu Su, Lu Meng and the others heard this, they hurriedly shouted and taught everyone to find cover and hide. Sun Quan's heart trembled, and he hurriedly hid back in the enemy tower. After another roar, Sun Quan listened to countless miserable screams, and his eyes couldn't help but swell with a bit of despair and grayness.
"Could it be that Dongwu is exhausted!?"
A thought suddenly flashed in Sun Quan's heart. Lu Meng looked cold, but he didn't know what Sun Quan was thinking about at this time, and he spoke sharply.
"The last general heard that the old thief had a group of elite soldiers, called the Thunderbolts, with a total of 1,200 men, and every four people were equipped with a thunderbolt cart, which could send huge stones and was infinitely powerful. Its military commander is none other than Liu Ziyang. It is rumored that in the battle of Hebei in the past year, Liu Ziyang developed this thunderbolt car, and the old thief used this weapon to surprise and break the Hebei army!! After that, Liu Ziyang made many improvements, and this thunderbolt was even better than before. If the final general is correct, Liu Ziyang is using the thunderbolt to attack the city!! β
When Sun Quan heard this, his face changed, and he asked Lu Meng anxiously.
"This thunderbolt is so sharp, I'm afraid that the soldiers and horses in the city will be difficult to defend, Ziming can have a strategy to break the enemy!?"
When Lu Meng heard this, his tiger eyes shimmered, his expression froze, and he said with emotion.
"At present, under the cover of this thunderbolt, Wei Kou's offensive is becoming more and more powerful, and our army must not hesitate, otherwise the hearts of the three armies will be in turmoil, and Nanchang will be in danger. According to the last general's opinion, it is now dark and dusk, the king should quickly prepare a daredevil's army and go to attack the thunderbolt team, if he can destroy those thunderbolt cars, Wei Kou will have nothing to do!! β
When Sun Quan heard this, his expression was shocked, his blue eyes burst into light, he looked at the soldiers around him, and shouted loudly.
"The country is in danger, who dares to move forward!? If it succeeds, it is all God's will, and Lone will be rewarded!! β
As soon as Sun Quan's voice fell, Lu Meng and Ding Fengqi knelt on the ground and shouted.
"The Lu of the Eater, the Matter of Loyalty to the King, the Last Will Wait for the Wish!!"
Sun Quan rolled his eyes, his blue eyes narrowed, and after exhaling a big breath, he ordered in a condensed voice.
"Ziming and Chengyuan are loyal and righteous, they are alone with this courtier, what can they ask for! Alone give you 300 jars of wine, quickly gather 3,000 dead soldiers, and after drinking Zhuangxing wine, quickly send troops, be sure to break Wei Kou's thunderbolt team!! β
Lu Meng and Ding Feng glanced at each other, both of them were full of the will to die if they didn't succeed, and they quickly retreated. Let's say that the Wei army was under the cover of the fierce attack of the thunderbolt car, and the offensive was fierce, and most of the Wei soldiers under the city were carrying soil to fill the moat. The Wu soldiers in the city suffered numerous casualties.
Gradually, night fell, and Cao Cao saw that the battle situation was very good, so he quickly taught the soldiers to light torches and continue the attack. The morale of the Wei soldiers was greatly shaken, and they wanted to break through Nanchang City in one fell swoop. Hundreds of thunderbolts fired boulders in succession, hitting the female wall of Nanchang City Peng Peng incessantly, some smashed into the city, destroying countless houses. Liu Ye saw that the night was dark, and the soldiers of the speed education smeared the stones with fuel oil and set them on fire. After a while, with the thunderclap, one after another flints flew out, and the flames shone brightly, which was very terrifying. Soon there were pieces of fire on the city of Nanchang, and the Wu soldiers in the city were even more chaotic, and the city was also on fire.
At the same time, at the east and west gates, Lu Meng and Ding Feng each led 1,500 dead soldiers, and after drinking Zhuangxing, they saw the flints smashed into the sky, and the fires in various houses were ignited, and they all hated it to the extreme. In the East Gate City, Lu Meng glared at the tiger and roared angrily.
"Wei Kou is cruel and ruthless, regardless of the safety of the people, if the Eastern Wu Kingdom dies, the people of Jiangdong will definitely be enslaved by Wei Kou, the beasts are not as good, and the suffering is unspeakable!! Our family became slaves of the country and was bullied by Wei Kou!! We are all men, and it is our destiny to protect our family and defend the country!! Fight later, you should work hard to move forward and fight Wei Kou endlessly!! β
Lu Meng fell, and all the soldiers who dared to die raised their weapons and hissed in response. On the other side, Ding Feng also encouraged the completion of the work. The two daring armies were killed from the east and west gates respectively. The Wei scouts at the east and west gates saw it and hurriedly returned with their horses. LΓΌ Meng and Ding Feng galloped wildly, pulled their bows and strings, and shot them one after another.
Let's say that Liu Ye was commanding the thunderbolt car to fight, and suddenly, the shouts of killing were loud. Liu Ye came back to his senses suddenly, and when he looked anxiously, he faintly saw two places, east and west, each with a Wu soldier and horse army attacking.
