Hao Meng handed the drawings to the guards, saluted, turned around and ran in the direction of the bed crossbow, and his respect for Lu Bu was even higher in his heart.

"How did the lord find out?" Jia Xu was also calculating in his mind just now, after all, at this time, if he was a little bit closer, he might miss the bed crossbow in the city.

Lu Bu smiled: "When did Wen He start studying arithmetic?" ”

"After the victory of the army, the subordinates will definitely ask the lord for advice." Jia Xu arched his hand and said, as a strategist, he naturally has a study of arithmetic, Jia Xu is even better at calculation, but he has never been revealed in front of people, and Lu Bu's calculation speed is faster than him, how not to be surprised.

After a slight adjustment, Hao Meng pulled out the saber at his waist, and the soldiers who were specially responsible for observing the general's orders gathered their eyes on Hao Meng after the bed crossbow was ready.

Zhang He in the city suddenly felt that something was wrong, and the bed crossbow of the state army stayed outside the city for too long.

Zhang He took a closer look at the bed crossbow outside the city, and then looked at Hao Meng, who was raising his sword high.

"Be careful, the state army is going to attack the city." Zhang He reminded loudly.

As soon as the words were spoken, the two hundred bed crossbows began to creaque, and the creaking sound could be heard even on the city walls.

The small spear-like crossbow bolts were wrapped in great power towards the city.

Nearly twenty bed crossbows in the city, under this round of attacks, scattered, looking at a bed crossbow not far away, under the power of several crossbow arrows, has been disintegrated, Zhang He's heart is not only shocked or shocked, such a distance, but also so accurate, do you want the defenders to hide the bed crossbow?

"Move the bed crossbow quickly." Zhang He shouted.

Yuan Shao attached great importance to the large-scale attack of the Bingzhou army, plus the bed crossbow sent from Yecheng, the number of bed crossbows in the city has reached two hundred, and there are even more than 100 bed crossbows in Xicheng, in Yuan Shao's cognition, the range of the bed crossbow is roughly equivalent to that of the thunderbolt, occupying the advantage of the city wall, the range of the bed crossbow will be longer, so as to destroy the thunderbolt that the Bingzhou army relies on.

Imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruel, when the news of the destruction of twenty bed crossbows came, Yuan Shao didn't know how to describe his mood, if there was no bed crossbow to help defend the city, you can imagine what kind of situation the defenders will face, even if they can hold the city of Dangyin, I am afraid they will suffer heavy losses.

Compared with the Bingzhou army, Yuan Shao also knew that the Jizhou army did not have the will to die to fight to the last man, and how low the morale of the army would be in the face of the double destruction of bed crossbows and thunderbolts.

"Lord, you can order the soldiers to hide behind the female wall, leaving dozens of people to observe the movements of the army outside the city, once the state army begins to attack the city, its bed crossbows and thunderbolts will definitely not be powerful, so that the city can be defended." Feng Ji Dao.

Unlike the guards in Hedong, Jizhou can be said to be full of talents, and the strategists under Yuan Shao have already studied the thunderbolt.

After Zhang He in the city received the order, he immediately ordered the soldiers to hide behind the female wall, and the soldiers who were left in the city to observe the state army watched with a frightened expression as the thunderbolt threw huge stones towards the city, which was farther than the bed crossbow in range.

Suddenly, the city was lively, there were a few more defenders hiding behind the female wall, and the boulder could still pose a threat to their lives.

The boulder fell on the city, splashing dust and smoke, and although the debris was not very lethal, it would still be very painful if it hit the exposed skin.

Zhang He frowned slightly, and ordered the wounded or dead soldiers to be carried to the city.

The defenders of the city saw the tragic situation in the city, and their hearts were cold, even if they had seen the scene of the soldiers in the army dying under the thunderbolt car, and now they saw it again, it was also hairy in their hearts, the death was really too miserable, it was a siege at the beginning, and there was not much free time, but now they are sitting back and watching the robe be destroyed by the thunderbolt car.

Lu Bu also frowned slightly after learning about the situation in the city, although the thunderbolt can dampen the enemy's spirit to a certain extent, but the defenders obviously found the defects of the thunderbolt, and only need to order the soldiers to hide behind the female wall, and now even the bed crossbow on the city has shifted its position.

"The lord doesn't have to be in a hurry, there are 20,000 Jizhou troops in the city, and the daily consumption of grain and grass is also huge, as long as the grain and grass in Jizhou cannot be transported to the city, and within a month, the Jizhou army will inevitably run out of food and the army will be in chaos." Jia Xu said.

Lu Bu nodded, attacking a city, sometimes it takes months, a strong city like Luoyang, even if there are only 20,000 troops in the city, if there is enough food and grass, 100,000 troops may not be able to capture it in two years.

Lu Bu also made up his mind, this time he must give Yuan Shao a cruel lesson.

"Order, let all the thunderbolts, no need to aim, just smash the boulder into the city, Hao Meng is responsible for guarding the defenders' bed crossbows." Lu Budao.

In this way, the defenders of the city found that even at night, the boulders would not stop, anyway, in the dark night, the soldiers who controlled the thunderbolt did not need to aim, and mechanically threw the boulders to the city, but whoever was selected to be a thunderbolt rider would not become blind at night like ordinary soldiers.

The Thunderbolt attacked for three days without sleep, during which the Thunderbolt was also damaged, and the accompanying craftsmen repaired it and immediately transported it to the front.

Zhang He spent three days in fear, especially at night, and he couldn't relax his vigilance, who knows if the Bingzhou army would suddenly attack at night.

The worst is the West City, the city can be seen everywhere piled up boulders, it is completely the state army to help the defenders transport the city materials, under the boulders, the originally smooth city wall has also become potholes, the defenders are also used to hiding behind the female wall, although occasionally soldiers will be hit by the boulders, they are also numb under the boulders, anyway, they just don't look up, they die and die.

The most tragic thing is that the fifty soldiers of the Jizhou army who observe the movement under the city, they have to change several times a day, and there are hundreds of thunderbolts, and when they attack, the boulders can be said to be flying all over the sky, even if they see the boulders falling from the sky, they can hide there.

Many boulders beckoned on the city wall, and from a distance, there were shocking marks on the city wall, and the soldiers behind the city gate occasionally had to bear the vibration brought by the boulders, compared to the soldiers in the city, they were still happy, at least not worried about their lives.

On the fourth day, the soldiers who could not bear the sleepiness attacked, fell on the cold city wall, at this time it was already autumn, the soldiers of the Jizhou army were still wearing summer clothes, in order to keep warm, even two or three people hugged together, even if there were boulders falling on the city, they could not stop the sleepiness, at this moment, the dense boulders suddenly stopped.
