Chapter 541: Take the Three Counties

For a time, under the attack of the defenders of Leiyang County, the people's soldiers suffered heavy casualties.

Despite this, the people's soldiers continued to climb upwards one after another.

Finally someone climbed to the top of the siege vehicle and began to draw a bow and arrow, shooting downward.

Each of these besieging soldiers has undergone strict bow and arrow training, and it cannot be said that all of them are sharpshooters, but the minimum accuracy is still there.

Now they are condescending, and the distance is so close, there is basically no need to aim, and if an arrow goes down, someone will definitely be hit by an arrow.

The difference is only that the arrow killed the defenders? Or did you shoot them?

When they found out that if they shot someone, the miserable screams of the wounded would continue to lower the morale of the defenders.

The People's Soldiers even deliberately shot people to the point where they were seriously wounded but did not result in death.

The defenders of Leiyang County began to suffer casualties.

And after they suffered casualties, the momentum of their offensive was bound to weaken and decrease.

As a result, more and more people climbed to the top of the siege engine.

The attack on the defenders of Leiyang County became stronger and stronger, and their resistance became weaker and weaker.

This process is a vicious circle process.

It wasn't until the first people's soldiers jumped from the siege vehicle onto the city wall of Leiyang County that the loss of the county seat of Leiyang County had opened a beginning.

More and more of the people's soldiers began to jump onto the city wall and fight the defenders on the wall.

By this time, the defenders no longer had the strength to shoot cold arrows, so they had to draw their swords and fight with the soldiers who had attacked the city walls.

And they, whether it is personal force or weapons and equipment, are too far from the people's soldiers.

The battle soon became one-sided, and the defenders on the walls became fewer and fewer.

And the people's soldiers who stood on the wall were more and more, and then they began to line up, attacking down from the wall, approaching the city gates, and then opening the city gates wide.

The moment the gates opened, the battle was essentially over.

It only took an hour to recover Leiyang County.

However, the number of casualties among the people's soldiers this time was as high as more than 300.

This was the deadliest battle since the attack on Gyeyang-gun.

Well, in fact, in the previous battles, only a few soldiers of the people's children were slightly wounded, and no one died at all.

From this battle, we can also see the cruelty of siege warfare.

This was when the number of soldiers defending the city was extremely small, and their siege equipment had the absolute upper hand.

If it is two sides of equal strength, siege warfare is definitely a huge meat grinder.

Zhao Guang, the defender of Leiyang County, was captured by the people's soldiers.

Because many people's soldiers were killed and injured in this battle, Zhao Guang suffered a lot after he was captured alive, and his nose and face were swollen after being beaten by the people's soldiers.

Well, well, one of the eight points of note in the three records is that prisoners must not be abused.

But this article should also be treated differently, anyway, until it is handed in, it is not considered a prisoner.

In the end, Zhao Guang was escorted to Xun You and Zhang Fei and other generals.

Zhang Fei glanced at Xun You, quietly pointed at Zhao Guang with his finger, and glanced at Xun You.

Xun You was stunned for a moment, and soon laughed dumbly.

Unexpectedly, General Zhang Fei was rough and reckless on the outside, but in fact he was coarse and fine.

Xun You nodded to Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei smiled knowingly, and strode towards Zhao Guang.

Zhang Fei walked behind Zhao Guang, untied the rope behind Zhao Guang, and said to Zhao Guang sincerely: "General Zhao is affectionate, righteous, courageous and scheming, and he is a man!" Wouldn't it be a pity to die like this? Why didn't General Zhao submit to my Jiangdong, and everyone would make meritorious contributions together and establish immortal meritorious deeds? ”

Hearing Zhang Fei's words, Zhao Guang raised his face and spat Zhang Fei, and scolded: "Go to Nima, how can your grandfather be greedy for life and afraid of death?" Since you have been caught, I only blame grandpa for not being good at learning, and if you want to kill or chop, let you dispose of it! ”

"Want to persuade your grandfather? Bah! What a despise of your grandfather! Big black face, if you are really a hero, hurry up and give your grandfather a good time! ”

Zhang Fei has a short temper, although he has been trained by Lu Bu to restrain a lot, but the country is easy to change, and his temperament is difficult to change, and his temper is not something that can be changed.

However, this time, after being smacked by Zhao Guang and scolded for a long time, Zhang Fei made an exception and was not angry.

Instead, he gave a thumbs up and said: "Although your martial arts are not very good, you are not afraid of death, your bones are hard enough, and you are a real man for my temper!" In that case, I won't be difficult for you, so I'll give you a good time! ”

After speaking, he directly called a few small soldiers and pulled Zhao Guang out to kill him.

failed to persuade Zhao Guang to surrender, Zhang Fei was very unhappy.

If Zhao Guang can be persuaded to surrender, the remaining few cities in Guiyang County will be broken in the near future.

And now, they only have one way left.

……

The next thing is to appease the people.

The People's Soldiers are very experienced in this.

It is only necessary to send people to notify each household from door to door, stating that the people's soldiers will not harm the people and will not take a stitch from the people.

As long as they are at ease, every citizen can enjoy the same treatment as the people of Jiangdong.

What kind of treatment can the people of Jiangdong enjoy?

Each person was to be given land according to his head, and the land he received was considered his own, and he was not allowed to buy or sell.

The tax is also much lower, you only need to pay the tax once a year, and you can pay cash directly.

The prosperity of the people of Jiangdong is the civilization of the whole Han Dynasty.

As long as you follow Lord Wenhou, you will definitely have a good life.

Therefore, although a great war had just taken place, there was still fear in the hearts of the people.

But to be able to become the people under the rule of Lord Wenhou, the people of Leiyang County are still very happy.

……

After conquering Leiyang County, Xun You only spent a day resting for a while, and then launched an attack on the remaining four counties of Guiyang County.

In the ensuing siege battle, the People's Soldiers learned the lesson of the first heavy casualties, and before the siege, they used new catapults to suppress the defenders defending on the city walls.

And the first soldiers who besieged the city wore heavy helmets.

Although the speed is a little slower, it is more secure.

Therefore, when besieging the city, they also kept casualties to a minimum.

But even so, for each city they conquered, they had to pay at least a hundred soldiers to die.

Until the entire Guiyang County was attacked, Xun You's group of dead soldiers had reached thousands of people.

At this time, the remaining two roads also conquered Changsha County and Jiangxia County successively.

In this way, the six counties in the south of Jingzhou still have the land of Nanjun, Lingling and Wuling.

And the three counties they attacked were just connected.

After getting the news, Lu Bu personally rushed to the Jingzhou battlefield and prepared to go into battle in person to conquer the remaining three counties with the power of thunder.
