Chapter 416: Xu Jie's City-Breaking Method

Xu Jie is really in a dilemma in Zhuo County, and his decision is really helpless.

Now he had only 15,000 troops at hand, but he still had 20,000 men and 500 catapults. If he gave up Zhuojun and led the army south, this catapult and the people would become his biggest burden. Once the Lu family's father and son get out of the way and rush out to give themselves a stalker with their butts, then they will be in big trouble, so they will be forced to give him a confrontation.

15,000 men and horses attacked the city guarded by 10,000 horses, which was an impossible task according to reason, so Xu Jie chose not to attack, but divided the 20,000 people into two shifts to operate catapults, and bombarded a section of the Zhuojun city wall day and night.

Lu Kuang also discovered the movement of the enemy outside the city, but he didn't know what the reason was, so he cautiously closed the door and waited for the results of the change outside the city. ”

At that time, Lu Kuang was shocked, how many days had there been no movement outside the city, why did he suddenly start attacking again? No, we have to look at it.

Hurriedly ran out of the Taishou Mansion, and when he looked up, he saw that the sky was dark and all the stone bullets were flying, and the momentum was really earth-shattering. At that time, Lu Kuang was shocked, it seemed that the enemy had really attacked the city this time.

So he immediately mobilized his men and horses to prepare for resistance. As a result, this catapult smashed the city very much, smashed for a day without stopping, even at night did not rest, the southern section of the city wall after a day and a night of attack and bombardment, is already crumbling, but everyone can only watch, because the stone bullets are too dense, if you go up to defend, it is looking for death.

Looking at the already shattered section of the city wall, Xu Jie thought that the fire was almost over, so he ordered to start attacking the broken city wall with fire oil bombs.

So the oil bomb rose into the air, crackling and breaking through the city wall, and the fire clashed with the oil, and the rising smoke covered the sky for a long time.

But the fire oil bombs continued to fall for no time, burning this section of the city wall for an hour, and the city wall began to turn red, making a terrifying sound of gagba.

At this time, Xu Jie ordered again to throw cold water cans.

So countless canisters of cold water smashed on this section of the city wall again.

At this time, the city wall is all blue bricks outside, inside is rammed earth, a day and a night of stone bullets smashed, long ago, it has long been cracked, and then burned by such a fire, almost already burned red, and then poured by this cold water, gathering heat and cold, immediately falling apart, half of the city wall collapsed, and the remaining half of the city wall has been crumbling.

At this time, Xu Jie ordered again, the fire oil bomb flew again, and half an hour later, the cold water jar flew again, and in an earth-shattering loud noise, in front of the eyes of tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides, this section of the city wall collapsed.

Xu Jie immediately ordered, and the 20,000 people opened their throats and shouted: "The city is broken, kill-" But the army just didn't move.

Lu Kuang in the city didn't know that the enemy hadn't moved, the city wall had collapsed, and the enemy had begun to charge, so he had to send troops to block it, so countless soldiers were driven up the collapsed gap, ready to block the enemy. As a result, when countless soldiers rushed to the gap, they saw that outside the city, there was a neat array of giant arrows of the Lu family's army, and before they could understand, an overwhelming rain of arrows, like a raging storm, immediately swept away this section of the gap, and the soldiers who rushed to the gap were immediately swept away.

Lu Kuang immediately understood that he had been fooled, this was the enemy using such a method to consume his own strength, just this time, no less than a thousand soldiers died in that gap.

But at this time, the shouting of killing outside the city was loud again, and Lu Kuang didn't dare to take it lightly, what if he came to Zhenge this time? So he immediately sent another group of soldiers to rush into the gap, but another group of arrows rained down, and another group of defenders lost their lives in vain.

As soon as he retreated, the shouts of killing outside the city began again.

Lu Kuang was about to cry at this time, this is too funny, where are you attacking the city, is this just teasing me.

However, he knew that the other party was playing tricks, but he couldn't help but be on guard to block it, so he had to send someone up again, at this time Lu Weixuan stopped his father: "The enemy is so repeated, we can't afford to consume, why don't we send a small group of brothers to observe in the gap, the army stays in the gap, as long as the enemy does not move, we will not move, if the enemy moves, it is not too late for us to go up to the gap to block." ”

This is a way to have both worlds, so Lu Kuang followed the plan. Only a dozen dead men were sent to climb to the gap and look outward.

When Xu Jie saw it, he smiled in his heart, and then ordered the catapult that had been equipped: "Behind the target gap, cover the shooting." ”

Immediately the stone bullet rose into the air, and the black pressure directly rushed to the back of the gap, although it was impossible to see whether there was an enemy behind the gap, and how many enemies there were, but it was just by virtue of the large number of catapults, and the advanced structure of their catapults, the loading was fast, and it was just hit.

Lu Kuang was rejoicing that his plan had succeeded, but he suddenly heard a terrible scream in the air, raised his head suddenly, and countless stone bullets fell like hailstones, and immediately smashed into the group of soldiers who were ready to go.

"Don't retreat, don't retreat, hold on." There was a shout from outside the city again, and retreating at this time would be equivalent to giving the gap in the city wall to others, and his own Zhuo County would be considered lost.

But if you don't retreat, you can't do it, the stone bullets are still falling like hailstones, and that place is already the Shura Hell, no matter how many lives you fill in, it's in vain. Not a single one was willing to stand there at the risk of death, so the defenders fled backwards to avoid the stone bullets.

Seeing that the effect of the blow was obvious, Xu Jie couldn't help but smile evilly: "Play sinister with me, you are still tender, if I didn't want a complete Zhuojun city to resist the possible enemy in the north and cut off my back road, I would have burned you a single inch of grass a long time ago."

After another batch of stone bullets flew out, Xu Jie ordered Yang Feng not to shout and charge directly.

Yang Feng got the order, and with a wave of the big gun, he took the lead and urged the horse to rush up the gap along the slope formed by the collapsed city wall, and the fifteen thousand soldiers behind him rushed up desperately, and the gap was submerged in a blink of an eye.

Looking at Yang Feng who was standing on the gap like a god in surprise, Lu Kuang lamented in his heart - Zhuojun was broken.
