Chapter 320: Guan Yu, Uncle Liu Huang, Ruyin City
In Ruyin County, people shouted and neighed, swords collided, and an offensive and defensive battle was in full swing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As an important town in Yuzhou to govern Jiangdong, Ruyin County's city defense is three points stronger than that of ordinary county towns. Attacking Yuzhou from the direction of Yangzhou, Ruyin City is a necessary hurdle.
The city wall is ten zhang high, and there is a moat from Yingshui outside the city, and the city wall is also covered with strong bows and crossbows. After Yuan Shu usurped the throne as emperor, he even transferred fifty bed crossbows from the treasury and deployed them on the wall of Ruyin County.
If you want to rely on the generals to break the city, the fifty bed crossbows will be a nightmare for the generals!
Uncle Liu Huang didn't have thousands of generals, and he was reluctant to die Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in battle under this small Ruyin city, so he could only rely on ants to attack the city.
When the ants were attacking the city, the strong bow and crossbow could cause great damage to Uncle Liu's soldiers and horses, but the bed crossbow could not play a role.
After all, shooting an ordinary soldier with a bed crossbow is like an anti-aircraft gun hitting mosquitoes, which is not cost-effective.
Two thousand steps outside Ruyin City is the main formation of Uncle Liu's Chinese army.
Looking at the soldiers on the ladder who were constantly being shot, Uncle Liu Huang's face was expressionless, but his heart was painful.
This attack on Yuan Shu, firstly, Yuan Shu usurped the throne and was usurping the Jiangshan Sheji of their old Liu family, and Uncle Liu Huang had to send troops. The other is to take the opportunity to seize the territory and the city, and take out the training of new soldiers.
This time he sent troops to Runan County, and Uncle Liu Huang transferred 15,000 elites, leaving only 5,000 elites to garrison Shouchun City. However, in half a month, Uncle Liu Huang recruited 30,000 new soldiers, and this time he brought them to Runan, wanting to train them through war.
The vanguard of the ant-attached siege is naturally this group of recruits.
"If there is Hao Meng's dragon cannon guards, this Ruyin City can be easily captured."
Watching the recruits who were attached to the ant annex to attack the city rout, Uncle Liu Huang sighed.
……
After suffering several big losses from the dragon artillery guards, Uncle Liu Huang also found out the power of this special class.
Ordinary city walls, even if there is only one dragon cannon guard, only a few cannons can blast it out of a gap. Even the so-called county town, only need to gather three or five dragon cannon guards, and each bombardment a dozen cannons, can also break the city.
Hao Meng has twenty dragon cannon guards under his command, and if these dragon cannon guards come out together, it is said that even Jinan City can be blasted open.
This is Hao Meng's original words in private!
Uncle Liu Huang didn't know where the dragon cannon guards came from, but the siege effect of the dragon cannon guards had penetrated into Uncle Liu's heart, and he dreamed that there would be so many dragon cannon guards under his command, even if it was one.
When Hao Meng attacked Jiyin City that day, there were also strong bows and crossbows on the city wall, and there were still hundreds of bed crossbows. It is said that whether it is a military general or these dragon artillery guards, even if they can break the city under the eyes of these hundreds of bed crossbows, they will definitely suffer heavy losses.
However, when Hao Dream broke the city, he still broke Jiyin City in half a day!
Among them, the dragon cannon guards hid behind a group of shield carts, and when they approached the city wall within a thousand paces, ten rounds of salvo bombardment came.
The range of the bed crossbow is as high as 1,000 steps, and ordinary tower shields can shoot through, but if the shield car made of thick logs is made, the bed crossbow wants to shoot through it from a thousand steps away, at least a large bed crossbow is required!
Therefore, when Jiyin City was in the day, Hao Meng was able to break the city in half a day.
This is where Uncle Liu Huang envies.
If he, Uncle Liu Huang, also had a dragon cannon guard, even if there was only one, he would be able to conquer the Ruyin City in front of him today.
……
Guan Lao Er was guarding Uncle Liu Huang at any time, and after hearing his eldest brother's sigh, he touched his red beard and thought for a while, and then suggested: "Don't worry, eldest brother, younger brother has a good plan to break the city." ”
Hearing this, Liu Bei was a little overjoyed and asked, "Will Ji be released?" ”
Guan Yu pointed to the defeated round of recruits and replied: "Big brother, look, when we sent the recruits to attack the city, the bed crossbow on the city wall never moved at all, but relied on the strong bow and crossbow to kill and injure our soldiers. ”
"If the younger brother disguises himself as an ordinary soldier and hides in the middle of the next group of ant-attached siege soldiers, these bed crossbows will definitely not be activated. In this way, as long as a certain person can climb the ladder, he can kill the city wall. ”
Liu Bei touched the saber and replied, "It's not appropriate! ”
"It was not that there were no generals who wanted to rely on this method to break the city, and when they arrived on the ladder, the bed crossbow really couldn't play a role, but the strong bow and crossbow on the city wall could concentrate on shooting."
"The second brother is the backbone of a certain person, and the eldest brother definitely doesn't want the second brother to take risks!"
Guan Yu's method, when the princes of all walks of life were fighting, they had already been personally verified by the generals, and it would not work. Even those super-first-class generals, when they are on the ladder, they can't stop the 180 strong bows and crossbows from shooting.
"Big brother!" Guan Lao Er touched Redbeard's hand for a moment, and said with emotion: "Ordinary generals naturally can't stop the shooting of strong bows and crossbows, but with the martial arts of the younger brother, there are no thousands of strong bows and crossbows to concentrate on shooting, and they don't want to shoot a certain Guan Yu!" ”
"As long as a certain person is close to the city wall, he can go up to the city wall with a rain of arrows."
"The bed crossbow can give a certain threat, but the strong bow and strong crossbow want to shoot Guan Mou, unless the brother himself dies!"
Liu Bei was moved, but said, "It's still too dangerous." But he was noncommittal to Guan Yu's request.
Soon, the next round of recruits from the ant siege city attacked, and after Guan Yu changed his clothes, he also mixed in with this group of recruits.
Uncle Liu Huang witnessed the whole process, but his eyes flashed, and he seemed to be very moved, but he did not stop the action of his second brother Guan Yu.
……
The distance of two thousand steps was less than a quarter of an hour for a recruit running at full speed, so Guan Yu had to suppress his speed, trying his best to disguise himself as an ordinary recruit, and follow the flow towards the city wall.
After entering a thousand steps, the bed crossbow on the city wall really did not exert its might; It wasn't until they were within two or three hundred paces that there were long-range crossbows on the city walls.
Running all the way to the foot of the city wall, Guan Yu still tried his best to disguise himself as an ordinary recruit, only when an arrow occasionally shot at him, he would always dodge just one or two steps.
There was gold juice on the city wall that fell, Guan Yu pulled the shield of a small soldier next to him to block the golden juice falling from the sky, and the soldier next to him fell miserably, but Guan Yu followed the erected ladder and jumped up more than three zhang high in a few steps.
At this time, the guards on the city wall also discovered Guan Yu, and hundreds of arrows were immediately shot over.
Guan Yu was no longer hiding, the general's outfit was fully open, and the long knife in his hand brought bursts of sword light, blocking most of the arrows that came from him. And, with the help of the cloud ladder under his feet, Guan Yu continued to jump up while blocking the rain of arrows.
Soon, Guan Yu jumped onto the city wall. At this time, no amount of arrow rain could play much effect, and Guan Yu quickly entered the group of soldiers, clearing a clearing for the recruits who came to the city later.
The city is broken, and there is no suspense.
Half an hour later, the city gate was opened, and although there was still fighting in the city, Uncle Liu's army could continue to drive into the city.
Before dark, Ruyin City completely fell into the hands of Uncle Liu Huang, and the gateway of Jiujiang to Runan County was completely opened.
