Outside the city, the 5,000 soldiers besieging the city stopped when they walked hundreds of meters forward and came to the moat.

At the same time, thirty trebuchets stopped, and countless chariots loaded with boulders ran out ...

I have to say that this trick is particularly good, using a chariot to carry a boulder, which is both practical and convenient, and does not require manpower. There are 30,000 chariots and the number of boulders, as you can imagine, they are all transported from Henan with countless migrant workers.

"Reload!"

"Put!"

Whoosh...

The order was issued, and thirty trebuchets threw boulders at the same time to attack the city of Yangzhou.

Thundered!!!

Then, for nearly two hours, there was a ferocious bombardment, which never stopped, and after the chariot had carried the boulder out, it had retreated from the wings, and then it had arrived, and it had returned, and the cycle had never stopped.

Yangzhou City was attacked like this, the entire city tower was shaking, especially after being bombarded for so long, even if it was made of steel, it should be loosened.

"It's not okay to go on like this, let them smash it again, even if the city tower doesn't collapse, they won't be able to fight, the city tower is full of their boulders, and there is no place to stand."

Aguduo looked outside, walked around in the cave, and said anxiously.

Zhuge Can was also very anxious. He also said before that the enemy had come to deliver stones, and it was really the best of both worlds to send the stones to the castle tower and wait for the soldiers to smash them down.

However, the increasing number of stones is no longer a help, but a curse.

Zhuge Can also stood up and looked outside, the soldiers who were originally hiding behind the wall pier were almost dead, there were more and more stones, and they had nowhere to hide.

And looking at the wall piers again, many places have been smashed, and there are gaps in the city wall, and many cracks are interspersed during the period.

"How can it be!"

Zhuge Can said angrily: "This Xu Maogong, is he going to destroy Yangzhou City?" If he is allowed to smash it like this, I am afraid that the city tower will collapse. ”

"General, although the enemy is attacking fiercely, there are more and more stones on the city tower, let's think of a way, 1 move the stones, otherwise we can't defend the city."

A Guduo said: "This is easy to do, I will send someone to go." ”

He took a long knife and rushed out of the cave. Running towards the inner city, he was going to move his troops and move the boulders.

Along the way, many boulders were smashed into the air, and they were all slashed by him.

This scene happened to be seen by Cheng Yanjin and Xu Maogong outside the city, and both of them were shocked, especially Cheng Yanjin, who stared at his eyes and couldn't believe it.

"That's, Agudo?"

"I guess so."

Cheng Yanjin said: "His martial arts are really rare in the world, I'm afraid that only Luo Tong and others can match him.... ”

Speaking of Luo Tong, Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but sigh.

If Luo Tong is still there, dealing with these thieves is not easy to capture, but it's a pity... The past is unbearable, Cheng Yanjin thought about idleness, and sighed several times in succession.

Xu Maogong smiled and said: "The general doesn't have to be like this, although Ah Gu Duoyong is brave, but we don't fight with him, what can he do?" We have tens of thousands of troops and tens of thousands of iron chariots, so are we still afraid of him? ”

Thundered!!!

Suddenly, the Yangzhou City Tower in front of it collapsed for a short time, the cracks in all parts of the city tower were greater, and the city bricks were loosened more seriously. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it won't be long before Yangzhou City will really collapse.

But it was at this moment that the trebuchets ran out of boulders, no more chariots were coming, and all the trebuchets stopped working; Suddenly, countless pontoon bridges were set up on the moat, and five thousand soldiers ran over, and the siege towers and cloud ladder troops all advanced rapidly and really launched an attack on Yangzhou City.

Knock knock...

The drums of war are beating, and the siege battle has officially begun!

On the castle tower, Agudo was leading the soldiers to move the boulders away. But there were so many boulders on the tower that the soldiers had nowhere to put their feet, and it was extremely difficult to move. In such an environment, let alone defending against the enemy, it is difficult to walk. Seeing that the Tang army had begun to charge, everyone panicked, and Aguduo kept shouting: "Brothers, steady, don't let the enemy get closer, the archers shoot!" ”

There are not many archers, and after two rounds, they can't hurt many enemies.

Aguduo personally lifted the stone and kept throwing it down.

As he smashed, he yelled: "Brothers, all smash down, don't let them come close." ”

In just the blink of an eye, the ladder was erected, hundreds of ladders, soldiers climbed up continuously, from a distance, just like ants, dense, the momentum is huge.

But don't think that if there are too many people, it will be easy to hit, they are all shield soldiers, and the shield is always held high, even if you are hit by a stone, you may not necessarily die.

The most terrifying thing is that the ten siege towers that are approaching the city tower are deadly siege machines!

Zhuge Can walked out of the hidden soldier cave, looked at the current situation, and asked Lu Yang: "General Lu, in such a situation, can Yangzhou be defended?" ”

Even Zhuge Can said this, which shows that he has no bottom in his heart.

Lu Yang looked around and said in a low voice: "Strategist, I'm afraid it's... I can't hold it, so I can hold on for two hours at most. ”

"What? Just two hours? ”

Lu Yang said: "Cheng Yanjin and Xu Maogong are clearly prepared, their stone-throwing attack has sealed off all parts of our city tower, and our soldiers have no time to rescue, and they can't defend the city, if they wait for their siege tower to arrive again, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

"In that case, what are we going to stick to?" Zhuge Can said with a dignified face: "Yangzhou has long been looted by us, and there is no baggage, even if it is discarded, it is not a pity." ”

"Immediately give the order, leave a group of soldiers and horses to break, and the army will go out from the east gate..."

"Wait..."

Halfway through his words, Zhuge Can frowned and said, "If Xu Maogong is very confident and thinks that it is enough to defeat us, and he has long expected that our army will evacuate Yangzhou, then he will definitely think that I will go to the east gate." Let's not go through the east gate. Let's go through the north gate! ”

"North Gate? That's the way to Henan! ”

Lu Yang said puzzled: "We went to Henan, won't we be able to go back to Huainan and Jiangnan?" ”

"Hmph, don't worry, our army is hundreds of thousands, isn't there a way out yet? Let's talk about it when we go to Henan. ”

"Lu Yang, you go and give the order immediately, I will go and inform the general to evacuate together."

"No."

Lu Yang replied and left quickly.

Although he didn't know what Zhuge Can thought, but after this year, his understanding of Zhuge Can has never been an uncertain battle.

"General, the enemy's offensive is too fierce, quickly retreat!" A little, Zhuge Can, under the protection of a team of personal soldiers, came to the city tower and pulled Aguduo back.

Ah Guduo looked back and saw that it was Zhuge Can, and he hurriedly said: "Strategist, why did you come here, this is too dangerous, come with me." ”

Suddenly, Ah Guduo carried a long knife, protected Zhuge Can, and entered the inner city.
