Chapter 2027: Just Half a Month
The thunderbolt riders on the city wall are unlucky again, they have become the primary target of the enemy's attack, although they have the protection of the shield soldiers, but it can not bring them more security, whether it is a boulder or a fierce fire oil, it is not a shield soldier can stop, but many soldiers have seen the fierce fire oil directly a thunderbolt car with the control of the thunderbolt soldiers engulfed the scene.
The defenders, who were hiding behind the women's wall, suddenly found themselves safer than the Thunderbolts.
Liu Bei frowned, the enemy thunderbolt has too long a range, and there are magical things such as fairy mirrors among the enemy army, if you defend the city, your own side will be completely at a disadvantage, even if Liu Bei is unwilling to admit it, this is also a fact that cannot be changed.
However, the enemy will have to fight back, otherwise the enemy's crossbow army will be more arrogant outside the city, and the crossbow army will cause more damage to the defenders than the attack of the boulder, although the defenders are more inclined to attack with crossbow arrows.
The battle between the two sides continued, and with the addition of giant thunderbolts, the situation of the defenders became delicate again.
After Lu Bu learned about the situation on the city wall, he glanced at it with the fairy mirror, there was no other order, how could there be no damage when attacking the city, and after the strong crossbow army suffered losses on the battlefield, the giant thunderbolt would teach the defenders a hard lesson, and he wanted to give Liu Bei the feeling that it would make him feel hopeless.
In the three consecutive days of attack, the defenders suffered nearly 3,000 casualties, while the Jin King's army on the besieging side suffered losses of no more than 1,000 people, and the casualty ratio of the besieging side and the defending side was completely reversed.
"Big brother, when the enemy army attacks, the strong crossbow army is the mainstay, if the enemy attacks, if you attack the strong crossbow army by surprise, maybe it can cause greater casualties to the enemy army." Zhang Fei said.
Liu Bei shook his head and said: "Yide, it's not that this king doesn't agree to fight, but when the crossbow army is attacking the city wall, many of them are guarding the city gate, and the cavalry appears in front of the strong crossbow army that has been prepared in advance, what will happen." ”
Seeing this, Zhang Fei was silent, the bravery he thought was useless on the battlefield, especially in the face of the army under the command of King Jin, this feeling was even stronger, and his personal martial arts seemed so fragile in front of the strong army.
This also has a lot to do with the army that Zhang Fei came into contact with, when the Han Dynasty was just caught in the war, the strength of the armies of the various departments was uneven, which created the prestige of many fierce generals, but with the gradual progress of the war, the princes' dirty hands became more and more elite, they became more powerful on the battlefield, and when facing the enemy army, they had more ways to deal with it, and it was more difficult to show personal martial arts on the battlefield at this time.
"Yide, it only takes half a month to defeat the enemy army." Liu Bei said in a firm tone.
"Big brother, is Kong Ming's words credible?" Zhang Fei asked in a low voice.
This time Liu Bei did not have Hechi Zhang Fei, the situation in Yizhou has reached an extremely critical point, it can be seen from the defense of Mianzhu that when the enemy attacked the city for the first time, if it was not for Fan Jiang to find out in time, I am afraid that the enemy army has already entered the city, showing in front of the Yizhou army is a strong army, even if it has a crossbow car, whether it can change the situation in Yizhou, it is still difficult to determine.
"Yide, Yizhou will definitely be preserved, you and I are brothers, and we will work together to revitalize the Han family." Liu Bei said in a firm tone.
Zhang Fei nodded excitedly, over the years, Zhang Fei has followed Liu Bei indefatfatigably, and the friendship between him and Liu Bei is conceivable, and Liu Bei is a relative of the Han family, in this case, it is logical for Zhang Fei and Guan Yu to assist Liu Bei.
What touched Zhang Fei the most was that Liu Bei did not change his relationship between the two because of the change in status, which is extremely difficult for a monarch.
"Big brother, don't worry, even if I fight for my life, I won't let the enemy succeed." Zhang Fei said.
The siege continued, the casualties of the defenders were increasing every day, and the crossbow army was the new elite who rose on the battlefield of Yizhou, and they became famous through the battlefield of Yizhou.
A powerful crossbow with a range of one hundred and fifty paces is absolutely fatal to the enemy when it appears on the battlefield.
"Lord, if the current battle situation continues, within half a month, he will definitely be able to break through Mianzhu." Pang Tong said.
"This king is a little skeptical, whether Zhuge Liang has some kind of plan in Yizhou, otherwise why hasn't he appeared until now." Lu Bu wondered.
Pang Tong also has the same question, the two armies are fighting, the role of the strategist is indispensable, and the Yizhou army in addition to the previous surprise attack, the performance on the battlefield can only be said to be average, in the siege and defense of the city, although the role of strategy is not large, if used properly, it can still cause a lot of damage to the enemy.
Pang Tong said: "The lord can send someone to investigate in Chengdu City secretly." ”
Lu Budao: "This king has sent people before, but there is still no news, which shows that Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei attach great importance to this matter." ”
"The soldiers will block, the water will come to Tutun, if Liu Bei continues to defend like this, Yizhou will inevitably be lost." Guo Jiadao.
Lu Bu and Pang Tong looked at each other and smiled, Guo Jia's words were not wrong, if he was facing the enemy's attack, he would just blindly defend, and the loss of the defense was greater than that of the attacking side, what kind of situation would occur was imaginable.
The defending side has a terrain advantage, and when this advantage does not give the defenders a sense of security, it will be a different situation when they are defending.
Liu Bei took a defensive posture to deal with the attack of the army, which was not a problem for Lu Bu, he only needed to continuously consume the strength of the enemy army, and after the morale of the enemy army was dampened, the army could break through Mianzhu as soon as the army swarmed up.
Ruocheng and even Chengdu City, you can use the same method, if the Yizhou army goes out of the city to fight a decisive battle with his side, Lu Bu will not be afraid, he can't wait for such a situation, the Yizhou army is closed, it is the most headache.
When an army of 100,000 entered the land of Yizhou, the daily consumption of grain and grass was a huge amount, and the war was protracted, and the consumption was even greater for the besieging side.
As long as Liu Bei does not change the way to deal with it, Lu Bu can continue to attack Yizhou according to the method in front of him, so that Yizhou will finally fall into his hands, Yizhou is Liu Bei's last territory, after controlling Yizhou in his hands, Liu Bei will become a lost dog, even if he escapes from Yizhou, it is difficult to do much, in short, this time Lu Bu is determined to put Liu Bei to death.
