Chapter 224

Arrows rained down on the city, and many of the soldiers hid behind the battlements to avoid the rain of arrows, and only when the besieging sergeants climbed up from the top of the ladder would they venture out from behind the battlements or push the ladder away, or teach the sergeant on the ladder a lesson with stones and rolling logs. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

However, this also meant that they had to be exposed to the threat of arrows, and if it weren't for the shields that were slightly covered, the casualties would have been greater.

Dressed in military uniform, under the protection of the guards, Zheng Qi took the risk to climb to the top of the city. Looking down, I saw countless Beihai soldiers carrying ladders to kill. Among them, there are more than a dozen huge well railings, which are being pushed hard by the surrounding sergeants, and on each well railing there are twenty or thirty sergeants armed with hard crossbows, as long as there are people on the city wall who show their heads, it is a baptism, and many people are shot to death by these crossbowmen.

The walls of Linzi City are already very tall, but the height of these wells is faintly one or two points higher than the walls of Linzi City. The sergeants on the well railing were condescending and had the upper hand, but you can imagine how the soldiers at the head of the city felt.

Seriously, the biggest threat to the defenders was not the catapults, not even the rushing ones. The former is certainly terrifying, Yan Shao even let people build dozens of catapults, but now the technology is there, these catapults are not only not particularly powerful, the most important thing is the problem of accuracy, the right head is there, and if you want to throw the city wall, you can basically only rely on Meng―――――― of course, considering the weight of the stone and the speed, as long as it is thrown, the death is basically very tragic.

As for the rush car, this thing is usually an important item in siege warfare, the problem is ...

The only thing that this thing can use to ram is the city gate, and now Zheng Qi ordered someone to block the city gate with stones. No matter how powerful the car is, it's useless.

Only the well can effectively kill and injure the well and the defenders on the city. At the moment, the defenders suffered heavy casualties, and these wells can be said to have played a very vital role.

"Isn't there anything you can do to destroy those wells!" Seeing that there were many soldiers on the city wall who died from the arrows of the well, Zheng Qi gritted his teeth a little, he didn't pay much attention to the casualties of the soldiers and horses under his command, but if there were too many casualties, how could he defend this Linzi City?

In order to become the lord of this Qi country, he has put in great effort. Seeing that he finally succeeded, he had to face such a desperate situation, how could he be willing?

"This..."Several generals around Zheng Qi glanced at each other, not knowing what to say, and after a while, a person who was closer to Zheng Qi spoke. If you want to destroy the well, the best way is to attack with fire, and although the power of this thing is huge, it has no ability to prevent it, just send a group of soldiers and horses to kill out of the city, you can easily solve this thing, but in order to defend the city, we have already ordered someone to block the city gate with boulders and other objects, this..."

Although those stones can't be moved, but the siege is very urgent at the moment, if they are moved, wouldn't it be equivalent to putting in all the Beihai soldiers outside?

Of course, it's not that there is no way at all, if you can have something like fire oil, and throw it with a hard crossbow or a stone machine, it will definitely have a miraculous effect.

The problem is that Qingzhou does not have any naval army, basically there is no requirement for water warfare, and there is no hoarding of fire oil at all, which is only hoarded in the south, and even if there are some in the city, the number will not be very large.

This method can be given up early, and there is no need to be delusional.

"For the sake of today's plan, I'm afraid that only when the reinforcements come, will there be a glimmer of life..." Although he really didn't want to say this, the general still gritted his teeth and said it.

"Reinforcements..."Hearing this word, Zheng Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Where are the reinforcements, when Yan Shao attacked before, Zheng Qi had already sent people to ask for reinforcements, but where were the reinforcements? Now the army is besieging the city, not to mention, at first, when the city gate was not blocked, Zheng Qi sent some people out, wanting to ask for reinforcements from neighboring counties.

However, Zheng Qi's subordinates did not have fierce generals like Tai Shici who could kill from the hands of 100,000 yellow turbans, and almost all of these people who were responsible for asking for reinforcements died under the siege of the army.

Later, Yan Shao almost broke through the city gate with a rushing car, and in a panic, Zheng Qi ordered someone to block the city gate, so that it was even more difficult to count on reinforcements.

"Rest assured, the high walls of Linzi City are strong, and there is a hoarding of grain and grass that can last for half a year, although Yan Shao's troops are strong, it is impossible to easily capture Linzi, and when this Yan Shao's grain and grass are exhausted, he can only obediently retreat from the army, and there is no other choice..."

As I said before, unlike Wang Xuan's house, Zheng Qi is from a serious Qi family of eight hundred. has considerable influence in the Qi State, and these generals are almost all Zheng Qi's family generals, and they are quite loyal to him.

Even if it was someone else, it wasn't as easy to shake as Le'an. Many Qi families are in a wait-and-see attitude, on the one hand, because of the influence of the Zheng family, and on the other hand, what Yan Shao did in Le'an before violated the taboo of the family, which made them a little dissatisfied.

"Hold on..."Zheng Qi smiled bitterly.

In fact, this is the only belief that Zheng Qi can hold on to until now.

Yan Shao has a lot of soldiers and horses, but relatively, the consumption of grain and grass is also an astronomical amount. At present, the amount of grain and grass consumed every day is amazing, considering that the world is in chaos at present, and no one has enough food in their hands, Yan Shao may not be able to hold on for long, at least it is absolutely impossible to last for more than half a year.

When Yan Shao's grain and grass are exhausted, there is only one way to retreat...

Zheng Qi was comforting himself with these words, when he saw a sudden commotion on the city wall.

"The North Sea Soldiers are attacking! The North Sea Soldiers are attacking! ”

Zheng Qi looked over with a few generals, and saw that several strong men were climbing out of the ladder, and the strong man who had jumped on the city wall was even naked, carrying a big knife in his hand, and he killed all the defenders around him in just a few rounds.

The two strong men who jumped up behind were also extremely brave, one of them was in no way inferior to the strong man who was the first, and the other was slightly inferior, but it was also limited.

I saw that the strong man in the first place laughed wildly after killing all the soldiers and horses around him. "I'm in charge of this!"

―――――――――― Dividing Line――――――――――

failed to capture Linzi for several days, and Yan Shao couldn't sit still.

He didn't have time to waste here, and although he was a little hesitant, he finally agreed to Guan Hai and the others' invitation to fight. However, he was not at ease at all when he let Guan Hai go up by himself, and finally ordered Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao to follow him, Yan Shao even asked Sun Guan to select a group of soldiers and horses from the Dare to First Army, and follow Guan Hai and a few people to climb the city wall together, increasing the chance of success―――――― as I said before, the Dare First Army is not a simple cavalry, but an elite soldier who can charge into battle on a horse and fight the camp when he gets off his horse.

Many officers dare to take the lead in the army, and in terms of martial arts, they are not even inferior to ordinary generals in other armies, but imagine how strong the combat effectiveness of such a soldier and horse will be?

In order to manage the safety of Hai, a confidant, Yan Shao spared no cost when he arrived.

Even if it weren't for the armor soldiers around him who were not suitable, Yan Shao would even have the idea of sending these armor soldiers.

It is not surprising that people are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless. Although the purpose of recruiting Guan Hai was a little impure, after all these years, Yan Shao could not coldly use Guan Hai as a consumable.

Moreover, the generals under Yan Shao's command are all famous and surnamed in the official history, even Pei Yuanshao, who is the weakest. In Yan Shao's opinion, these people should gallop on the battlefield in the future, even if they die in battle, it is worth it, but if they die at this time, it will be too embarrassing.

There is no doubt about the bravery of Guan Hai, Zhou Cang and others, at least the entire Linzi City can't find a character who can compete with them in martial arts. However, after a while, a large space had been cleared from the top of the city wall.

Especially Guan Hai and Zhou Cang, they are like fierce beasts, as long as they are encountered, even if they are at the level of a general, it is difficult to resist a few rounds, but after a while, the armor of the two of them has been stained with blood, and a lot of blood is even flowing down the position of the nail leaf...

"General, your injury..."Seeing that Guan Hai had killed another enemy general, a person who seemed to be his cronies took advantage of this gap and hurriedly walked up to Guan Hai.

I looked at the cronie and saw that there was an extra blood hole on Guan Hai's shoulder, which was not big, but it was also the thickness of a person's thumb. It's been a while since I saw this wound, but Guan Hai has been fighting, and the blood doesn't stop flowing at all.

This wound was caused by an arrow shot by an archer at the top of the city wall when Guan Hai was climbing the city wall. At that time, the situation was critical, Guan Hai was holding a shield with one hand, blocking the arrows and stones falling from the top of his head, if he let go because of the severe pain, I was afraid that it would be really dangerous.

However, Guan Hai didn't seem to feel anything, just holding the shield and going up, until he was almost on the city wall, he pulled out the arrow on his arm because it was too obstructive, and he continued to climb the city wall to fight.

If it weren't for Guan Hai's amazing physique, I am afraid that another person would have turned pale and tasted the bitter fruit of excessive blood loss.

"What is this little injury!" Glancing at the injury on his shoulder, Guan Hai said disapprerovingly, saying that he would continue to lead people to kill when he picked up the big knife.

The cronie looked at Guan Hai's injury with a bitter face, but Guan Hai insisted on this, and he didn't dare to stop it.

Fortunately, at this moment, a voice said on the side. "Let's bandage it quickly, haven't you heard from Dr. Hua? If there is too much bleeding, it will be very troublesome for us people..."

After saying that, he grabbed Guan Hai, and then gestured with his eyes to the cronie who was making a bitter face.

The person next to him looked over, and it turned out to be Zhou Cang, who had gone up to the city wall with Guan Hai.

Zhou Cang's martial arts are similar to Guan Hai's, and there are no opponents on this city wall, and after a while, he has killed more than a dozen people with his own hands, and the rest of him almost dare not compete with this demon-like character.

He was feeling a little bored when he heard the conversations.

I have to say that compared with Guan Hai, Zhou Cang is obviously more rational, if any of these historical Yellow Turban Party can barely be a general, Zhou Cang is definitely one of them, on the other hand, Guan Hai is not good, no matter how much he hones, he is at most a brave general.

It stands to reason that Zhou Cang's upper limit is higher than Guan Hai's, and it is also more valuable to cultivate, but many things are not so calculated, at least for Yan Shao, Guan Hai, who has followed him for many years, is closer and more willing to trust him.

In comparison, Zhou Cang is much worse.

If someone else came to persuade him, maybe Guan Hai would disagree, but his relationship with Zhou Cang in the army has always been relatively good.

Thinking of what Hua Tuo had said, Guan Hai snorted twice, but he stopped talking...

Guan Hai's personality is indeed very irritable, but he also has an advantage, that is, he admires those who have the ability, and he also values what they say―――――― as long as these words do not conflict with his principles.

It just so happens that Hua Tuo is such a person, he was born in the small peasant class, unlike other people from other families, and he has no idea of looking down on doctors at all, and even in the common people's class, doctors are already quite statused.

What's more, Hua Tuo is still a legendary-level miracle doctor, and Guan Hai doesn't know how many times he has witnessed Hua Tuo's ability to rejuvenate his wonderful hands, and dragged back the people who were almost dead from Lord Yama.

What Hua Tuo said, to be honest, Guan Hai really didn't dare not listen...

Seeing Guan Hai like this, Zhou Cang smiled slightly, and waited until the cronie helped Guan Hai bandage his wound before saying to Guan Hai.

Mmmm, I'm sorry, I'll make up for it right away!!
