Chapter 139 The humble siege

At this time, in the camp of the Yellow Turban Army, Cheng Yuanzhi was laughing loudly, he didn't expect that the strategy he and Huang Long used would be so successful.

Before, their attack on Zhuojun was blocked, and they knew that they couldn't do it if they wanted to take Zhuojun by force, especially when Zhuojun City had tens of thousands of cavalry.

They had not received any news that Zhuo County had such a large cavalry force, which made them lose their troops.

Fortunately, there are not many other Yellow Turbans, but there are many people, otherwise they would not have any way to continue the attack now, so they could only choose to leave here in a gloomy manner.

Then the order of the chief helm came, telling them to take Zhuo County, which put Huang Long and him in a dilemma.

Luckily, they were lucky, and a mysterious person gave them a good look.

When they reported the mysterious man's attention to the Yellow Turban headquarters, General Tiangong immediately agreed to their plan and sent someone to contact Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju.

When Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju agreed to their plan, Huang Long began to take the initiative to divide his troops and pounce towards Yi Jingcheng according to the mysterious man's attention.

Cheng Yuanzhi sent people to watch the Zhuojun in front of him closely, until tonight he sent someone to report to him, saying that there was a movement in the city of Zhuojun.

Cheng Yuanzhi immediately sent more men and photographed the only cavalry unit under his command, and their task was to monitor the Zhuojun cavalry.

It wasn't until Cheng Yuanzhi confirmed that Zhuojun's cavalry troops had left, and he immediately ordered people to prepare for the siege, and he wanted to conquer this fortified city in the shortest possible time.

Now Zhuojun has become the hope and symbol of the northern land of the Han army, as long as Zhuojun is in the hands of the official army for one day, the official army in other places will be greatly encouraged.

This has already had an extremely bad impact on their Yellow Turban Army, and even the attack posture in some places has been suppressed by the officers and soldiers.

Today he is going to wash this city of hope in the eyes of the official army, so as to strike at the will to resist of the Han official army, as long as he can defeat Zhuojun, then he will become the hero of the Yellow Turban Army.

With his heroic dream, Cheng Yuanzhi led his men straight to Zhuo County.

Now he still has nearly 80,000 men under his command, and although the good and bad are mixed, he firmly believes that even the number of people alone can crush the opponent's officers and soldiers.

At this time, Liu Yuan was standing on the south gate of Zhuo County, and he looked at the yellow turban thieves who pounced like ants under the city, and a cruel smile appeared on his face.

Although there were many people below who had been coerced by the Yellow Turban Thieves, he didn't have the time to tell them all, as long as he dared to approach the city wall, he would kill them.

The Yellow Turban Army really underestimated him, did they think that they only had cavalry in their hands, and today he wanted to let these Yellow Turban thieves see the power of his infantry army.

The Yellow Turban thieves who were in charge of the siege also had some skills, and they also knew the siege method of besieging the three gates, and now they surrounded them from the southeast and west, leaving only the north gate.

Although their ideas are correct, they don't understand the strength of their opponents clearly, how can their subordinates be so easily impressed by these little tricks?

Today they will pay a heavy price for their actions, and now they are guarding the western wall, and the southern wall, the strongest of the Yellow Turban Army, has been taken over by Dian Wei.

As for the east, Gan Ye is guarding, Liu Yuan does not have the slightest worry about these three sides, what he is most worried about is the city wall in the north.

Because only Guo Jia is guarding there now, as a scribe, Guo Jia's combat effectiveness is really not flattering.

However, it just so happened that his opponent did not choose to attack from that side, which made Liu Yuan feel a lot more relieved.

Soon the ant-like Yellow Turban Army entered the range of his own attack, and Liu Yuan's eyes immediately released Dao Jingguang, and he ordered to his subordinates:

"The archers immediately prepare a three-stage shot, target the yellow turban thieves under the city wall, and beat them hard for me!"

Following Liu Yuan's words, the archers who had been prepared on the city wall immediately got up, and they shot sharp arrows along the battlements.

Suddenly, the feather arrows flying in the sky blocked the moonlight, and a burst of dark clouds went straight to the yellow turban thieves under the city, and soon there were bursts of howls under the city walls.

The Han army on the city wall did not pay attention to the Yellow Turban thieves who were still howling, they were like a god of death who disregarded life and death, and shot out one sharp arrow after another.

The neat three rows of archers, each shooting feather arrows, formed an invisible barrier, making it difficult for the Yellow Turban Thieves to move in front of this barrier.

The Yellow Turban Bandit generals under the city were immediately a little dumbfounded, he did not expect that they had not yet confronted the enemy army, and the enemy army had caused heavy casualties to his men with only archers.

In just a few moments, his men have now suffered thousands of casualties, and if they continue like this, maybe these of his men will all die under the enemy's feathered arrows.

But he didn't have any good idea now, their Yellow Turban Army was not rich, and many of the soldiers under him still used wooden knives and guns, and as for the siege equipment, it was even less pitiful.

The entire Youzhou Yellow Turban Army only has a small number of wooden curtain cars, rushing cars and dozens of ladders, as for what kind of Lu Gong car, Yi Yi car, and Jing Lang, these high-end goods are not available.

In the past, when they fought siege warfare, they rushed down with numbers, but today they met a real opponent, which made their previous preparation seem very inadequate.

It's too late to go now, and the Yellow Turban generals here can only order the subordinates behind to use the corpses of those subordinates who died before as shields.

Then there was an extremely terrifying scene under the west city wall of Zhuo County, countless yellow turban thieves carried the corpses of their comrades and howled towards the west city wall.

If there was an untrained army on the city wall, maybe they would really be frightened by this terrifying scene, but although the troops under Liu Yuan's command could not be regarded as elite soldiers in a hundred battles, it was still okay to say that they were elite.

They were not shaken in the slightest by the madness of the Yellow Turban Thief, but obeyed Liu Yuan's instructions and immediately prepared the next big meal.

As long as those yellow turban thieves under the city dare to come, it is guaranteed that this meal will make them extremely happy, and the yellow turban thieves who soon broke through the first line of defense came to the city wall.

They set up the ladders that were easy to transport over at the head of the city of Zhuojun, but compared to the scarce number of ladders, the number of Yellow Turban Thieves was a bit huge.

However, this did not bother them, and some experienced Yellow Turban thieves immediately organized their personnel, and they were ready to use ant-attached means to build a ladder to attack the city.

Just as the Yellow Turban thieves gathered more and more, a cold voice like Nine Shadows came down from the city wall:

"Yaksha beating, flying hooks, and wolf tooth slaps are ready ~ put!"

As these words landed, countless huge black shadows flew out from the city wall, and these black shadows smashed into the Yellow Turban Army with the sound of the wind, and for a while, countless Yellow Turban thieves were smashed by these black shadows!
