As Xia Huan said, forcibly using lies cannot cover up the truth.

On the city wall, the ordinary people, who were still in high morale, suddenly turned pale when they saw the dust raised in the west.

"Let's ...... the siege"

Under the southern city, after Xia Huan learned that Huang Ning's army had arrived, he immediately issued an order to attack the city.

The Chu army, which had long been ready to attack, suddenly broke out with an unprecedented shout.

"Forward!"

At the front, Zhou Yu, as the commander, pulled out the sword at his waist and pointed at the city wall and roared.

"Step! Trample! Trample! ”

The footsteps of the Chu army are not very neat, but they are accompanied by several simple but tall ladders and wells accompanied by dense crowds, which still gives people a great visual impact.

"Don't panic! Don't panic! Bow and arrow ready! Bow and arrow ready! ”

On the city wall, the voices of the soldiers and officers of the Qi army kept ringing.

Although the training degree of the Qi army is not as high as that of the Chu army, it still has 5,000 soldiers.

Of these, 3,000 people gathered on the southern wall. The others were transferred to the West City Gate.

After a short period of nervousness and confusion, these soldiers finally began to prepare their bows and arrows mechanically under the reminder of their own commanders.

Fortunately, it's not just the soldiers of the Qi State. In the entire Lu County, as the key defense center of the Qi State, a large number of weapons and arrows are still stored.

Therefore, among the people who were forcibly requisitioned to the city wall, many of them were also given armor and bows and arrows.

However, the untrained people are a rabble.

"Whoosh!"

Before the Chu army could enter the range, someone had already drawn his bow and shot the arrow in his hand directly.

The arrows shot out were like dominoes, the moment the first person shot them.

The arrows like raindrops instantly made the entire city black and oppressive.

"Bastard! Who told you to release your arrows! ”

A centurion of the Qi army pushed one of the archers beside him to the ground.

"The Chu army is still a hundred steps away, who let you release the arrows!" The centurion cursed angrily as he kicked the archer in both feet.

The archer squirmed his lips a little aggrieved, but finally said nothing.

No way, above the city wall, the noise was so loud that even the people around him couldn't hear what they were saying.

Watching others release arrows, it is natural to reflexively release arrows in the same way.

"Whoosh!"

The sound of scattered arrows is still faintly audible.

As a soldier, the archer understood that this should still be the work of civilians who did not know how to fight.

Qi Guo's bow, with the strength of a normal person's arm, if it is pulled four or five times, the arm will be numb and the bow will not be able to be completely pulled away.

Ignoring the ordinary people who were still shooting arrows frantically, the archer silently bent down and pressed his body as close to the wall as he could.

The people, who seemed a little crazy because of fear, were still frantically releasing the arrows in their hands.

At this moment, the forefront of the Chu army had already entered within seventy steps of the city.

However, the rain of arrows did not bring much real damage to the Chu army except for the small damage.

"Full bow!"

With Zhou Yu's order, the archers of the Chu army at the front, whose bows had been drawn, formed a wave of arrow rain.

The sound of whistling arrows came from afar, like dark clouds, crushing the city.

"Run!"

On the city wall, ordinary people with no combat experience shouted with a crying voice in their mouths.

However, the ear wall above the city wall was already crowded with soldiers from the Qi State, and there was no place at all.

Looking at the Qi soldiers who looked at him with some joking, many people had not come back to their senses, and their lives had been taken away by sharp arrows.

After a rain of arrows, a strong smell of blood filled the city walls.

However, what irritates people's nerves more than these bloody smells are those who have been hit by one or even several arrows and have not yet died.

Their painful voices, like demonic sounds, devoured people's hearts little by little.

"Prepare to fight back! Get ready to fight back! ”

The officers of the Qi army roared wildly. However, in exchange, almost two-thirds of the people frantically poured under the city walls.

The results are clear, though.

The hundreds of Qi soldiers who had been waiting here for a long time raised the cold Changge in their hands.

After paying the price of more than a dozen lives, these people, having to grit their teeth, returned to the city wall again.

In such a short period of time, the Chu army had already surged within fifty steps of the city wall.

Although the second wave of arrow rain of the Qi army caused some damage to the Chu army. However, for the 10,000 foot soldiers who rushed into the city, this little rain of arrows was not enough to shake the foundation of their attack.

I have to say, these people are pitiful.

As an ordinary person, stepping on the battlefield without any training is equivalent to going to death.

And just when they were forced to run up the wall again, another wave of arrows struck.

However, with previous experience, many clever people immediately picked up the corpses on the side, or those who were still moaning, and blocked them in front of them.

"Poof! Poof! ”

The still warm blood instantly spilled all over their faces.

Some of them survived. However, many more people are directly pierced by powerful arrows.

The hard bow that had already entered the range of fifty steps was much more powerful than before.

"Kill!"

The whistling sound of the Chu army had reached thirty steps under the city wall, and the third wave of arrow rain was forcibly shot down by braving the arrows of the Chu army.

However, for the Chu army, which had already rushed to the edge of the city, these arrows could not stop the speed of their attack at all.

"Boom! Rumble! ”

Several ladders were soon erected on top of the city walls. There was a muffled sound.

The trapped soldiers in the Chu army held the short blade in their mouths, and climbed towards the city wall with their hands and feet.

A ladder isn't just a long ladder on top of a TV. Rather, it is somewhat like the fire ladder of later generations.

Not only does it have a pedestal to push on, but it's also wide enough for three or four soldiers to climb up together.

Moreover, there is a Jinglan that is higher than the city wall, and the light bow that the Chu army has already prepared also comes in handy.

The range of the light bow is only fifty paces, and the lethality is not strong, but it does not take much strength, and it can suppress the Qi army on the city wall to the greatest extent.

On the contrary, on the side of the Qi army, there were not many light bows, and most of them were taken away by the fields that wanted to attack the camp.

All of a sudden, the southern city of Lu County was like a huge meat grinder.

Whether it is the "ant-attached" Chu army or the hurried Qi army, dozens of people are killed every second.

The smell of blood instantly filled the sky over the entire Lu County.
