Early the next morning, Liu Yong got up and waited for the camp tent to come out, but saw that dozens of female soldiers had already stood outside the camp tent and the camp tent was undecided. ”

Liu Yong's face was full of spring breeze, and he instructed lightly: "Madame was a little tired last night and is still resting, you go in and serve later!" ”

The female soldiers naturally understood why Mrs. was "tired" last night, and they all agreed with a red face, and when Liu Yong turned around and left, they suddenly burst into laughter.

At this time, the battalions were ready to attack the city immediately, and Pang Tong and Fa Zheng were waiting.

After a brief meal of prepared breakfast, Liu Yong immediately set off accompanied by Pang Tong and Fa Zheng, followed closely by Ling Tong. Chen Zhi led the white-haired army to the end and obeyed orders at any time.

After the formation was completed, although it had been a few days of fighting, the momentum of the Jingzhou army had not weakened in the slightest, and even Cheng Yu and Cao Hong, who were watching the battle at the head of the city, were amazed.

"Master Hou, this Jingzhou army seems to be a little different today?" Cao Hong felt it in his heart and said with some doubts. After getting along these days, Cao Hong found that the title of "Hou Ye" seemed to make Cheng Yu happier, so he no longer called the general, after all, Cheng Yu's Marquis of An Guoting was very noble.

Cheng Yu was really useful, he didn't want to be so cold as usual, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Indeed, today's army lineup is more neat, and the morale is even higher, the whole army is solemn, it seems that it is holding back a breath of energy, and it will be carefully defended later." ”

At this time, a herald came to ask Master Liu Yong to start the siege.

"Command the whole army to start the siege!" Liu Yong ordered coldly.

Suddenly an order was given, thousands of troops moved forward, Xuchang City was still quiet as a wilderness one moment, and the next moment it immediately became a battlefield where the war drums shook the sky, and the men and horses on all sides immediately moved forward to kill, and the courage was abnormal.

Seeing that there were countless defenders at the head of the city, Liu Yong frowned slightly, and asked Pang Tong: "Can the stone-throwing truck be used?" ”

Pang Tong naturally understood what Liu Yong meant, and said with a smile: "Lord, look at it!" ”

With the fierce charge of the whole army, the defenders of the Cao army suddenly began to block with bows and arrows, and before the bows and arrows at the head of the city fell to the ground, they saw a violent whistling sound suddenly erupt from one place in the battlefield, and huge fireballs rose into the air and flew towards the city, falling like meteors.

Cao Hong, the head of the city, had already prepared, but he ordered the sergeant to dodge while shouting: "Raise the flag!" ”

I saw that huge cowhide flags soon rose at the head of the city, and the generals of the Jingzhou Army and Liu Yong suddenly wondered: "This method seems to have been used by someone a long time ago, I don't know if it is still useful?" ”

It stands to reason that Cao Jun already knew that it was difficult to stop the fire, and he still acted like this, and there must be something strange in it.

Sure enough, the moment the fireball hit the banner, it was immediately ignited, but the boulder did not fall, either it was rebounded outside the city, smashing and burning the Jingzhou army's own men and horses, or rolling into the city and igniting countless fires in the city, but the city head was not badly damaged, only some unlucky ghosts were smashed and burned. Occasionally, only a few leaked and smashed on the city walls, but the power was exhausted.

"I see!" Liu Yong suddenly realized that Cheng Yu ordered someone to put an iron chain under the flag, lift the boulder, and float in the air without falling.

At this moment, a herald said that he had come to ask for instructions from the general who commanded the catapult, and it was obvious that everyone had seen this.

"Keep smashing me with boulders!" Liu Yong said coldly, his eyes full of mockery.

The sergeant got the order and went to restore his life, but Pang Tong was still confused: "Lord, this ......"

"Haha......"

Seeing that Pang Tong also didn't understand, Liu Yong suddenly laughed: "Cao Jun is not self-sufficient, does he think that this can stop the stone-throwing car?" ”

Pang Tong's eyes suddenly flashed and said, "The lord wants to use a boulder to break the pillar, right?" ”

Dealing with smarter people is sometimes very boring, Pang Tong thought of Liu Yong's idea so quickly, which made Liu Yong feel very unhappy, the sense of accomplishment just now was gone, and he said coldly: "Then see how long their network can last!" What a clever act of self-inflicted death! ”

Fa Zheng suddenly smiled next to him: "Presumably, these chains also need a lot of iron, right?" ”

Iron is definitely one of the most sought-after materials in this era, although an iron chain is not surprising, but to build so many iron chains woven into a net, but also a lot of such nets, then the iron required is a lot, a little calculation, even if it is as rich as Liu Yong, I can't help but be shocked.

Sure enough, the stone-throwing carts continued to be thrown, and more and more boulders on those nets continued to sink, and the hot oil dripped on the city walls, and even their defenders could not approach and pass, and their own men and horses were divided into countless small pieces.

Cao Hong also saw the problem, but at this moment, it was irreparable, and he only hoped to be able to resist the hard battle of this day.

Fa Zheng suddenly said to Liu Yong: "Lord, look, how about projecting to those crowded places again?" ”

Most of the crowded places are small groups of defenders who have no nets or are divided by hot boulders, and if they are projected over, they have no place to hide.

"Someone, give an order, gather all the stone-throwing carts for me, and project them all on this wall!" Liu Yong sneered and ordered. His eyes were full of light.

Then he ordered again: "Tell the siege cone to prepare to attack the city gates!" ”

The three of them laughed at the same time, Xuchang should be broken!

Half an hour later, forty or fifty stone-throwing carts all gathered and opened fire at the same time, and the defenders who had just escaped by narrowly escaped were immediately killed and wounded, and there were almost no defenders on the entire city wall.

"Hahaha...... Besiege! Gao Ran was overjoyed, this wall was exactly the target of his attack, if the gate without defenders could not be breached, then he could die.

Gao Ran jumped off the horse directly and led the men and horses to personally command the door.

The sound of slamming on the door one after another, like a death knell, roared in the hearts of countless Cao Jun, and his face was full of misery.

Cao Hong knew that the only way now was to prepare for street battles and block all the Jingzhou troops at the city gate, the place here was small, even if there were more Jingzhou troops, they would still not be able to break through after breaking through the city gate, and then wait for the temperature of the stones at the head of the city to drop down, and then clean it up. In this cold weather, there must be two more hours, but I don't know if I have these two hours.

Of course, Liu Yong also understood the situation at this time, and asked Pang Tong to personally inspect the attacks on the other three city gates, and personally sit at the south gate.

However, Cao Hong didn't know that there was a group of people dressed in civilian clothes coming here, and there were many people and people drawn from all over the place, and Cao Hong didn't care, but kept encouraging his men and horses to prepare for a big battle.
