0161: Onslaught

Officers and soldiers camp inside the tent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the tunnel has been dug outside Guangzong City, it's time to start attacking!" Huangfu Song said in a deep voice. Although deep underground, it is impossible for the Yellow Turbans to find this unit digging tunnels without special means, if this tunnel is to be effective, it must be dug upwards, especially when digging the top layer, if no one else cooperates, it is easy to be discovered.

Although the layout of the city is very clear to the officers and soldiers in Guangzong, no matter what, there are more than 200,000 people in the city. Therefore, Huangfu Song must start attacking the city at this time, and the louder the better, it is best to attract everyone's attention.

Hearing Huangfu Song's words, the generals suddenly showed serious expressions, because they knew that from this moment on, the leisurely life would be gone forever. Especially once the tunnel war fails, then the only thing the officers and soldiers can do is to continue to storm the city wall, and at that time, I am afraid that only God knows how many people will die.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! "A series of flying stone attacks symbolized the return of the war to Gwangjong City, and in this regard, the Yellow Turban Army, under the command of various leaders, quickly erected a large shield to defend these flying stones. It seemed to be orderly, and there was no slackness from the long wait.

I have to say that although Zhang Jiao has not studied the art of war, the most basic training is still done well, at least in terms of discipline and organization, the Yellow Turban Army here does not know how many times stronger than other places.

Soon, the pontoon bridge was erected, and the ladder trucks began to move towards the city walls, along with several crashing cars. These crash cars have triangular iron plates or wooden planks on top of them that block arrows and stones, and a thick log is suspended from a rope in the middle. The tip of the rough wood is wrapped in iron sheet to increase its power, which can be said to be a great weapon against the city gate.

At the same time, while the officers and soldiers were storming Gwangjong Castle, the troops digging tunnels were also working fast, and their target was a hidden place in Gwangjong Castle. From what has been observed, there is a lot of shelter around it, and there are few people on it, and it is undoubtedly the safest to come out of it. Moreover, it is very close to the county capital, and once the troops kill from there, they can quickly rush to the county capital.

Outside the city, Li Yi led the Duliao camp to watch this brutal siege, and depression filled his heart again. Although his responsibility is also very heavy, after all, at this time, the more necessary it is for a strong field force like the Duliao Battalion to monitor the other three gates and prevent the Yellow Turban Army from suddenly rushing out.

For a full day, under the resistance of the Yellow Turban Army, the officers and soldiers had no chance to kill the city wall. However, this is obviously within Huangfu Song's expectations, after all, it has never been a simple matter to climb the city wall. Just like in the past, when Liu Bang attacked Xiayi, Zhou Bo got the title of five doctors because he was the first to go to the city, although this is also related to Liu Bang's attention to Xiayi at that time, but the difficulty of the besieging party to climb the city wall is obvious.

After resting for one night, the next day, the officers and soldiers began to storm Guangzong again, and for several days in a row, they attacked from morning to night, and there was a great deal of posture to capture Guangzong at any cost.

"Haha~ It seems that the imperial court is already in a hurry, I don't know if the dog emperor knew that for several days in a row, the officers and soldiers didn't even touch the city wall of Guangzong, would he be so angry that he would personally lead the army to kill him?" Zhang Liang laughed.

"The third brother should not underestimate the officers and soldiers, since the Huangfu Song led the army to fight with our army, only the first battle of Changshe suffered a loss because of Zhu Jun, but then he was defeated by Bocai, and until now, he has not been defeated again." Zhang Bao reminded in a deep voice when he heard this.

"Second brother, don't worry, my brother won't be careless." Zhang Liang hurriedly responded respectfully, although he has always looked down on anyone to the outside world, but for his two brothers, he is very respectful, especially for Zhang Jiao, he is even more in awe.

"What the second brother said is good, although the officers and soldiers have not been able to take advantage for several days, our army has also suffered considerable losses, especially the enemy's elite troops have not yet gone to battle." Zhang Jiao nodded and said.

Obviously, they had mistakenly thought that the sudden attack of the officers and soldiers was because the court was in a hurry, after all, this kind of thing had not happened.

In October, the officers and men finally stopped the onslaught for several days, not because they needed a break, but because the weather was getting colder and they needed to distribute clothes.

"Humph! This group of officers and soldiers will really enjoy it, and they will have clothes to take for a battle, is it so cold? Seeing this, a yellow turban soldier pursed his lips and said disdainfully, but his eyes full of envy revealed his true thoughts.

"Big brother, the officers and soldiers are distributing clothes." Zhang Bao said to Zhang Jiao.

"Handing out laundry? Is it that cold now? Zhang Jiao asked a little strangely when he heard this.

"The night is indeed relatively cold, and many soldiers of our army have begun to light fires to keep warm because they have no houses to live in." Zhang Bao replied when he heard this.

"I see, then order everyone to have a good rest today, in addition, second brother, you lead someone to deal with it, and try to let everyone have a place to live. If it doesn't work, go and prepare clothes and distribute them to those who don't have a place to live. Zhang Jiao nodded and said.

"Yes!"

On the other side, in the military tent in the officer and soldier camp, Huangfu Song sat in the first place, Zhu Jun on the left, Li Yi on the right, and Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others below were in two rows. Clearly, the officers and soldiers today are not just handing out clothes.

"I think you should know what I'm going to say, yes, the tunnel has been dug up, and what our army needs now is to use this tunnel to break through Guangzong in one fell swoop!" Huangfu Song looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice.

"These days of continuous onslaught, I think you have also seen the effect, our army has lost thousands of soldiers, and what about the Yellow Turban Army? The losses are less than one percent of our army! As for the loss of military supplies, although it is not clear, since Zhang Jiao dares to defend Guangzong, there must be a few months of stock! When Huangfu Song said this, his face became more and more serious.

"So, if you don't want to pay a bigger price! If you don't want to be punished by the imperial court because of defeat! If you want to be promoted to the marquis! Then this battle must be won! Huangfu Song shouted.

"Yes!" When everyone heard this, they responded in unison.

"Very good, then I don't know who is willing to lead an army to fight into Guangzong from the tunnels to create chaos? I can tell you very directly, even if you succeed in creating chaos, it will take a long time for our army to break through the city......" Huangfu Song said as he looked around at everyone.
