Chapter Seventy-One: The Battle for the Defending of the City (Part II)

"Alas, it's too late to regret it now, I really didn't expect that there would be such a brave and good fighter among the Han army, and now the war in each county can no longer be held, maybe now the Han army has gotten the news, if it can't be taken down in a short time, I'm afraid that my army will be more than lucky, no matter what, we must take the county in the shortest possible time, even if it costs a lot." Cheng Yuanzhi sighed secretly, waved the spear in his hand, and said loudly to many Yellow Turban soldiers: "Soldiers, I know that you are very tired now, but now we have no choice, if we can't take the county in the shortest possible time, I'm afraid that no one here can survive, and the end we face will only be annihilated by the Han army, so, take out your courage, let us fight to the death with these Han soldiers to the end, I, with you." ”

"Kill the thief! Kill the Han thief ......" As Cheng Yuanzhi's words fell, the Yellow Turban soldiers below shouted one by two, and for a while, all the Yellow Turban soldiers were murderous.

"Brother Lu, the situation is not good! The Yellow Turban soldiers below look like they have a high fighting spirit, but I'm afraid that we will be more than lucky! On the city wall, Zhang Fei said to Lu Rui.

"No matter how loud their shouts are, they can't hide the fact that they are now exhausted to the extreme, compared with these tired Yellow Turban thieves, the soldiers on our side have a great advantage in physical strength, although the food reserves in the county are not too much, but it is no problem for us and the people in the city to hold on for two days, and we have the protection of the city wall, as long as we don't go out of the city to meet the enemy, it is not so easy for them to attack, take advantage of this opportunity, It remains to be seen who will win and who will lose next. Lu Rui just snorted coldly when he heard this, and analyzed to Zhang Fei, it seems that Lu Rui is not very optimistic about these yellow turban soldiers.

"Brothers, follow me to attack the city, let those Han thieves know that our Taiping Sect is powerful, and today, we will make the court regret their decision to oppress us excessively, and let them go to hell to be punished." Xia Yuanzhi yelled again, and then, under the leadership of Cheng Yuanzhi, all the Yellow Turban soldiers rushed towards the county.

Seeing this, Lu Rui couldn't help but say loudly: "The Yellow Turban thieves have begun to attack the city, we must not let them attack it, soldiers, we only need to defend for two days before we can win, listen to my orders, the archers are ready to ......" Saying that, Lu Rui slowly raised his hand.

Although Lu Rui is young, he still has some ink in commanding the army, after all, although Lu Rui's command value is not the top in history, but he also has a level of 88, compared to some ordinary people, Lu Rui is undoubtedly too prominent, so now the county order of each county has also handed over his soldiers and horses to Lu Rui to command, anyway, it is not necessarily how good it will be to do it himself, it is better to hand it over to someone who is better than himself to do this work.

"Six hundred meters...... 400 meters...... Two hundred meters ......" Lu Rui's hand has been raised, secretly calculating the distance between the enemy and himself, and now the bows and arrows in the city are limited, so it is necessary to try to maximize the use of bows and arrows, therefore, Lu Rui deliberately shortened the distance of shooting, secretly calculated, and when it was almost a hundred meters, Lu Rui waved his hand and shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

"Whoosh...... With Lu Rui's order, countless bows and arrows shot out quickly, falling like raindrops in the Yellow Turban Army.

"Ahhh......h

Regarding this scene, Cheng Yuanzhi said loudly as if he hadn't seen it: "Don't retreat, give me all the strength to charge forward." ”

Originally, in the normal siege battle, at this distance Cheng Yuanzhi could already order to shoot back, but now it is not a normal state, Cheng Yuanzhi also knows that the current state of his troops can be said to be extremely poor, if he orders to shoot at this distance, it is estimated that those bows and arrows may not be able to shoot at the city wall of each county and have already fallen, and they cannot exert any lethality at all, so now Cheng Yuanzhi can only order to rush forward regardless of casualties, and he must reach a very close distance before he can order to shoot back.

Since the archers generally break in the back when they charge, this round of shooting on the Han side did not cause much damage to Cheng Yuanzhi's archers, not to mention that although the current Yellow Turban thieves are exhausted to the extreme, there is still a gap in Baimi, and it is impossible for Lu Rui's bow and arrow to shoot all the Yellow Turban soldiers who rushed over, and there will always be people who successfully rush over.

Looking at the approaching Yellow Turban Army, Lu Rui's face can be described as extremely solemn, this battle has great advantages and disadvantages for both the enemy and us, so no one is absolutely sure that they can win this battle, the opponent's weakness is obvious At the same time, his own weakness is also very obvious, so no matter who it is at this time, the psychological pressure is very huge.

However, Lu Rui knew that he had to be calm at this time, otherwise, he would definitely lose this battle, his eyes had been staring intently at the battlefield, and once he had the opportunity, he would give the next order.

At this moment, a soldier ran over and whispered a few words to Lu Rui, Lu Rui couldn't help but show a cold smile on his face when he heard this, and then ordered: "Everyone stop shooting, the idea is hidden." ”

As soon as Lu Rui's words fell, everyone immediately stopped shooting, and then all the archers set up shields in front of them, and it seemed that they had been prepared early, just waiting for Lu Rui's order.

"Brother Yide, you have excellent arm strength, and the next thing will be handed over to you, these people are all selected people with strong arm strength, and they must complete the task." Lu Rui said to Zhang Fei.

"No problem, Brother Lu, don't worry! My brothers and I won't let you down, brothers are ready to work and let those Yellow Turban Thieves know how good we are. After Zhang Fei laughed loudly when he heard this, he said to the people behind him.

"Good!" These 20 or so people are all selected temporarily, although the strength is not necessarily comparable to some historical generals, but it should be enough to be competent for the task at hand, and now is an extraordinary period, and it is impossible to have extra time for Lu Rui to be carefully selected, so it will be used to make do!

On this side, Cheng Yuanzhi couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that the bows and arrows on the Han army's side had stopped, and immediately shouted: "Brothers, rush quickly!" Those thieves no longer have bows and arrows, and we took advantage of this opportunity to take down the county in one go. ”

After hearing Cheng Yuanzhi's roar, those Yellow Turban soldiers rushed even more violently, almost using all their strength, and rushed in the direction of county by county.

"Even now, the archers are still shooting." Seeing that the distance was almost there, Cheng Yuanzhi couldn't help but yell, and the vanguard of the Yellow Turban soldiers continued to charge, but the archers had stopped and began to fire bows and arrows at the county, and at this time, these archers were already very close to the county.

Seeing countless bows and arrows flying over, Lu Rui had already prepared, so after this wave of bows and arrows, there were no casualties, taking advantage of the time when the archers paused halfway, Lu Rui yelled and said, "Throw the jar!" ”

Zhang Fei immediately made a move after hearing Lu Rui's order, leading those temporarily selected soldiers to the wall, throwing countless jars away, and for a while, a large number of jars had fallen around those Yellow Turban soldiers and archers.

"It's ...... Oil? Below, after those jars exploded, countless liquids appeared around those Yellow Turban soldiers, seeing that these jars were only filled with some liquid, at this time people's curiosity began to play tricks, and some curious Yellow Turban soldiers couldn't help but praise a little and tasted it, and casually said such a sentence.

"It's now, release the rocket!" Seeing that a large number of canisters had fallen into the crowd, Lu Rui couldn't help but say loudly, and then the previous archers stood up one after another and shot out the rockets that had been prepared a long time ago.

For a moment, countless fiery red bows and arrows shot out from the walls of the county, and then, in the previous oil pile, they played their due role.
