178, Zhenrong's heart is in turmoil
After Zhu Wei sent new city defense equipment to the virtual shelves, as long as these shelves like clothes poles of high-rise buildings were placed on the arrow stacks of the city wall, the wooden ladders of the besieging soldiers could be completely rendered useless.

The Shanyue soldiers on the city wall worked together to push the ladder of the Zhenrong siege into a 90-degree right angle with this kind of false frame, and there was no need to overturn the ladder, which was enough to make the besieging Zhenrong Buddhist soldiers and the Protector of the People's Army feel uncomfortable.
Even if they climbed up the ladder, they couldn't jump into the city wall, but hung on the ladder, unable to go up or down, and became the target of the Vietnamese soldiers defending the city mountain.
When Zhen Rong saw this scene in the rear of the army, he knew that it was impossible to capture Yuzhang City this time, so he could only withdraw his troops again to save his limited siege forces.
Of course, this time, after Zhenrong collected the troops, he did not have the idea of reorganizing the troops and fighting again, and directly led the army back to the camp for repair.
Before there was no way to crack Zhu Wei's method of defending the city that completely surpassed the Three Kingdoms era, Di Rong really didn't know what to do, and Di Rong's heart was full of depression again.
Who is this Zhu Wei, how can one or both of them be so good at playing defensive warfare.
When the two sides fought in the field before, Zhu Wei's army also relied on the high barracks to defend, and tens of thousands of people could not rush in.
Now he has changed to defend the city, although there are no things that can throw stones, but the means that can be obtained on the city wall also make him helpless.
Di Rongkong has soldiers whose combat power is stronger than Zhu Wei's, but it is useless.
Seeing that these soldiers under his command died under the city wall in vain, Zhen Rong was also a little hesitant in his heart, could this be the Han army tactics inherited by Zhu Wei from Zhu Jun, the Marquis of Qian Tang, and this made it impossible for a thief like him to mix.
Zhen Rong felt like a dirt bun, and the more he fought with Zhu Wei's army, the more he could see novel things, but these things made him completely unsure of how to deal with them.
Zhen Rong couldn't help but think, should he insist on attacking Yuzhang City anymore?
Is it a better choice to take the remnants of more than 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command, temporarily retreat to other counties, and then find another place to develop, or find other ways to recapture Yuzhang City.
It's just that the states and counties of this year, that is, the cities listed in the Three Kingdoms game system, have the protection of tall city walls, and the walls of many other ordinary counties are basically composed of earthen walls, which is at most two or three stories high, and there is really no reliability in terms of defense.
Even if Zhen Rong retreated to these county seats, it was not certain whether these county towns could accommodate the soldiers he brought.
If Zhu Wei leads troops to chase after him, he may not be able to hold it.
The most important thing is that the property and materials swept by Zhenrong from Xuzhou to Yuzhang's army are concentrated in Yuzhang City, if he leaves like this, whether he can have enough grain and grass to feed his more than 20,000 soldiers is also a problem.
Zhenrong is now in a bit of a dilemma, neither is he fighting, nor is he retreating.
If you fight, it seems that there are really some things that can't be defeated, Zhu Rong's means of defending the city really surprised Zhen Rong, even if Zhen Rong has tens of thousands of soldiers, he will only die in vain in front of the Yuzhang city wall, and his soldiers may not be able to capture this Yuzhang City after they die.
But if you want to retreat, where can you retreat?
Although there are still more than 20,000 soldiers under Zhenrong, but he lost the foundation of Yuzhang City, and the grain and grass he carried with the army can be eaten for up to seven days, even if he is left in the two camps of water and land on the other battlefield, there is not much food in stock.
When all the grain and grass at hand are eaten, what will he rely on to support more than 20,000 soldiers?
Although in addition to Yuzhang City, there are several surrounding counties that are still under his control, but there are not many grain, grass and weapons reserves in these counties.
Before, Zhen Rong knew that Zhu Wei was coming to fight him, so he concentrated the food and weapons scattered in various places in Yuzhang City, and he didn't want to give Zhu Wei the opportunity to capture these counties and get supplies.
Originally, Zhen Rong thought that no matter how bad he was, he could rely on Yuzhang City to defend, as long as there were sufficient reserves of grain, grass and weapons in Yuzhang City, it would be possible to defend it for a few years, and what background did Zhu Wei have to besiege Yuzhang City for a few years.
But now Yuzhang City was suddenly captured by Zhu Wei, which is equivalent to capturing the enemy's grain and grass troops in the game, and Zhenrong is really a little cocooned.
But no matter what, there is still only one word "retreat" in his heart, he really doesn't dare to continue to fight with Zhu Wei, but he should retreat to Jingzhou or Jiaozhou, he is still a little undecided.
Don't look at Zhen Rong is also a hero-level figure, he has continuously booby-trapped and annexed the forces of Guangling Zhao Yu, Pengcheng Xue Li, and Yuzhang Zhu Hao, but don't forget that he was originally frightened by Cao Cao and fled from Xiapi to Jiangdong.
It can be seen that he is actually a weak character who will take the initiative to escape when encountering difficulties, and now Zhenrong has been scared by Zhu Wei.
There is nothing to do with Zhu Wei in the frontal field, and he has been in the middle of the plan several times, and he was almost broken through the camp by Zhu Wei's army, and Zhu Rong also knew that Zhu Wei deliberately didn't want to fight with him, but he didn't have anything to do with Zhu Wei's strategy.
Originally, if there was still Yuzhang City, Di Rong still had some confidence, but Yu Zhang City was lost, and he couldn't take it back if he wanted to, and the kind of evasive disposition in Ji Rong's heart was somewhat revealed.
Now Zhenrong has lost any fighting spirit, and his heart is just thinking about his own way out.
On the surface, Zhen Rong is still a famous man of the Three Kingdoms after all, and he is considered a famous figure, not to mention that he still has so many soldiers and horses under him, even if he goes to seek refuge with other warlords, it is possible to be courteously received.
It's just that Zhu Rong helped Zhu Hao force Zhuge Xuan to retreat before, which can be regarded as offending Liu Biao of Jingzhou a little, so Zhen Rong is worried about what situation he will encounter when he goes to Jingzhou, if Liu Biao is willing to accept him, maybe he can stay in Changsha County, or Wuling County, Lingling County, and Guiyang County in Jingzhou, and then try to develop.
If Liu Biao couldn't tolerate him, but wanted to annex his soldiers, wouldn't he be caught in the net.
Zhen Rong is accustomed to annexing other people's forces, and he is naturally worried that he will become the target of other people's annexation, and Liu Biao is not a figure he can annex, if he is under Liu Biao, he is afraid that he can only be at the mercy of Liu Biao, which makes Zhen Rong a little unwilling.
But if you retreat to Jiaozhou, then Jiaozhou is really a wild and barbaric place.
Whether he can settle down when he goes to Jiaozhou is also a question, and there is not much grain and grass in his hands, once something goes wrong, then he will be a dead end.
In addition, Zhu Rong also knew that Zhu Fu, the original assassin of Jiaozhou, was Zhu Hao's brother, and now although Zhu Fu was killed by the rebels, if he went to Jiaozhou, would he be hostile to the people of Jiaozhou because of Zhu Fu.
Well, Zhen Rong is worried that his true face has been exposed by Jiaozhou Zhu Fu, even if he arrives in Jiaozhou, he can't continue to use his name as a celebrity to deceive the local forces in Jiaozhou, and then gain a foothold in Jiaozhou by annexation as before......
