Chapter 168: The Long Snake Formation (Second Update)

How could such a coincidence happen? As soon as the front foot of his ambush was withdrawn, the Cao soldiers on the back foot were already under the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

If anyone at this time still imagines that this is an accident, then he must have a rusty brain.

"Strategist, what should we do now?" Li Ming, who was on the side, asked.

Xiao Shu pondered for a moment, Cao Ren used a trick to lure himself back to Xinye County, what did he want to do?

"Let's go, go to the city walls?"

Xiao Shu looked up at the sky, it was dark, even if he put on a lantern, he could only see only two meters around.

When everyone came to the city wall, Xiao Shu looked down, except for five hundred meters away, the coiled fire dragon couldn't see anything at all.

Xiao Shu glanced at the torches below, and estimated in his heart that there must be about two or three hundred thousand people.

If the other party adopts the strategy of strong attack, the original city defense of Xinye County alone will not be able to defend it at all.

"Boss Zhongkang, it's time to show our new guy." Xiao Shu said.

"Okay, I'll do it." Xu Chu left in response.

Everyone looked at Xiao Shu curiously, and then looked at Xu Chu's departing back, thinking: What kind of guy is it?

Zhang Fei on the side couldn't help but ask curiously: "Strategist, what kind of guy is it?" ”

Xiao Rate smiled faintly and said, "Good guy! ”

When Xu Chu came up with a blower-looking guy in his arms, all the generals were dumbfounded, what kind of thing is this?

Xiao Shu looked at everyone's doubts, lightly fanned the feather fan in his hand, and said: "Lord, this is a throwing arrow, which can shoot fifty-six arrows at one time.

It has the advantage of being lightweight and powerful, and can be carried by three ordinary soldiers. ”

Xiao Shu said that it took three people to lift, but Xu Chu hugged one alone, and his face was not red and his heart was not beating when he walked.

'Boom'

Just as everyone was talking, there was a loud bang in the city, and the entire Shinno Castle seemed to tremble.

"What's wrong? Was there an earthquake? Everyone thought subconsciously.

Only Xiao Shu was shocked in his heart, no, this is definitely not an earthquake, but a stone throwing vehicle, a siege weapon.

It turned out that Cao Ren wanted to use a stone-throwing truck to smash Xinye City, and the reason why he wanted to use a trick to lure back Liu Bei's generals was entirely to protect the passage of the stone-throwing truck.

What a scheming!

"Quick, Boss Zhongkang, quickly put on the arrow barrel and shoot blindly!" Xiao Shu hid under the guardrail of the city wall and shouted at Xu Chu.

After a while, the quiver was assembled, and one of the ten quiver was destroyed by the boulder thrown by the catapult, which made Xiao Shu a little distressed.

It's not that I feel sorry for the quiver, but I feel sorry for the five special combat team members who died.

'Whoosh'

As soon as the quiver was assembled, it exploded with incredible power.

In the night, the rain of arrows flew down, so that the stone throwing carts of Cao Ying under the city wall suddenly stopped attacking.

Seeing that Cao Ying's attack stopped, Xiao Shu also ordered the arrow thrower to stop attacking, but he silently calculated the time in his heart, and after about ten minutes, the arrow thrower once again sent out a series of attacks.

"Just fight like that!"

Because it was dark, it was impossible to see Cao Ren's movements, so he could only use this method of estimation.

However, in order to prevent Cao Ren from figuring out his routine, Xiao Rate has an irregular pattern of time.

Xiao Yu calculated, Cao Ren had a stone throwing cart, and if he wanted to carry out an attack, he would have to prepare for at least seven or eight minutes, and with the fear in their hearts, the time between each time should be ten minutes or higher.

Soon the night receded, the sky was white, and Xiao Shu woke up under Zhang Muhe's soft call.

The first thing Xiao Shu did when he woke up was to lie on the guardrail of the city wall to check the movements of Cao Ren's corps.

In the distance, only the outlines of three stone-throwing carts could be seen, and Cao Jun was hiding from the attack of the arrowheads.

"Zilong, do you dare to go out of the city to fight?" Xiao Shu suddenly said to Zhao Yun who walked up to the city wall.

Zhao Yun wore a light yellow cloak on his shoulders, wearing bright silver battle armor, a spear in his hand, and a red tasseled battle helmet on his head, looking very powerful.

"Why don't you dare?" Zhao Yun replied with a cold expression.

"Okay, do you see the Cao army camp opposite? I want you to hold Cao Ren for half an hour, and after half an hour, immediately retreat to the city. Xiao Shu said with a smile.

Zhao Yun was tall and courageous, and he hugged his fists at Xiao Shu and said, "Zhao Yun takes orders." ”

The city gate opened, and Zhao Yun ordered five hundred soldiers and rushed out of the city.

......

In the camp of the Cao army, Cao Ren is thinking about the plan to break the city, this Zhuge Liang is thoughtful, and he has the help of defending the city, if he wants to break the city, I am afraid it will not be easy.

Cao Ren didn't expect that a small Xinye City would be so difficult to break, and he still made a lot of nonsense in front of the prime minister.

"Hey, if only Zhongquan hadn't been righteous, he has a lot of ghost ideas, and he is a rare general."

Cao Ren felt sad in his heart and felt aggrieved by Xiahouba's death.

How did the 'undefeated' general become a defeated general when he arrived in the small county town of Xinye? This Zhuge Liang is simply too deceitful.

Originally, Cao Cao sent himself here to let himself learn something from Xiahouba, but he didn't expect that Xiahouba would ......

Ay!

Cao Ren sighed helplessly, and at this moment, a herald entered the tent, half-kneeling on the ground and reported loudly: "General, a team of men and horses rushed out of Xinye City. ”

"Oh? Who is it? Cao Ren heard someone leaving the city, got up from his seat with a 'rub', and asked urgently.

The herald lowered his head and responded: "The word Zhao is written on the banner, it should be Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, the generals under Liu Bei's account." ”

"Hmph, Zhao Yun?"

Cao Ren snorted disdainfully, came to the weapon rack on the side, took off his three-pointed combat knife, and said in a deep voice, "Take me to meet him." ”

At this time, Zhao Yun's reputation was not prominent, and it was normal for Cao Ren not to take him seriously.

However, as soon as he handed it over, Cao Ren realized that this Zhao Yun's skills were so good that he was not inferior to himself at all.

I'm afraid that with his skills alone, if he is placed under Cao Cao, he will definitely be among the top three.

Cao Ren didn't dare to relax, and after knowing that Zhao Yun was powerful, he pretended to be invincible, but in fact, he secretly arranged a battle formation.

Xiao Shu on the city wall saw it clearly, his eyes sank, and he cursed in a low voice: "This Cao Ren is simply carved out of the same mold as Cao Cao, despicable and shameless." ”

As soon as Xiao Shu finished speaking, Xu Shu on the side exclaimed, "Long Snake Formation? ”

Obviously, Xu Shu also discovered Cao Ren's layout, and his expression became solemn.

"Yuan Zhi, what is the Long Snake Formation? What does it do? Liu Bei looked at Xu Shu's solemn expression and asked.

If Zhao Yun is in danger, then he must send troops to rescue him.

"Lord, this long snake comes from the dragon formation of the mysterious military division of the Yellow Turban Army, this formation can be trapped and killed, it is extremely powerful. It's just that Cao Cao is not proficient in the essence of the Jiaolong Battle Array, and he just learned a little bit like it and became this long snake array. ”

It was Chen Gong who was standing on the side who spoke.
