Cao De finally showed his knife to Zhang Bao, who was in Qinghe City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe revenge shouted in Cao Dejun's mouth has finally kicked off.

In war. Especially in the civil war of a nation, in fact, there is no revenge without revenge. It's just that people stand on different positions. And Cao De's revenge slogan was just to boost morale and arouse the soldiers' desire to fight.

The Great War began. The most tragic siege began. In the era of cold weapons, siege warfare can be said to be the most tragic. Siege warfare is different from field warfare. Although these two kinds of battles are testing the ability of soldiers, the field competition is the grasp of the battlefield situation by the generals of both sides, and as long as there are outstanding generals in the field to display excellent command skills. Examples of the victory of a weak brigade over a strong enemy abound. And the same generals exert the same ability, with weak brigades to launch siege battles against strong enemies in the city. Most of the defeated were on the weaker side. Because the competition in siege warfare can be said to be the quality and strength of the soldiers. For example, if 5,000 old and sick people attack a city guarded by 10,000 young people, the result is not difficult to guess.

Therefore, the siege battle does not matter what the strength of the two sides. The battle that consumes the most soldiers is also the one that tests the soldiers. It can be said that every siege battle was piled up by the attacker with the corpses of soldiers. Of course, the surrender of Kaesong is a different story.

If you ask, can't siege warfare be opportunistic? The answer is yes, of course. Nothing is absolute. Here is just talking about the general situation. I don't see Cao De when he first joined Hanzhong. Isn't Cao Dejun a weak brigade compared to the Yellow Turban Army? But Cao De relied on stratagem to achieve a brilliant victory.

The battle for Qinghe City began when Cao De's army beat the deafening drums of the attack. Two thousand sword and shield hands took the lead in attacking Qinghe City with shields in their hands. Next came a thousand soldiers carrying ladders, pushing siege engines, and soldiers as protection. In the end, a thousand archers quickly entered their range to cover the attack of the siblings.

The sword and shield bearers who ran at the forefront were the first to greet the baptism of the rain of arrows. At the moment when Cao De's army attacked, the Yellow Turban army at the head of the city immediately filled up the bows and arrows in their hands. As soon as the officers and troops under the city came into range, a rain of arrows fell from the city. Immediately afterwards, the sound of clanging and screaming came from below the city. Although Cao Dejun's sword and shield hand is a shield for each person. But in order to ensure the speed of the offensive. Most of them are round shields that can only protect the upper body. The protection for the lower body is much smaller. As the rain of arrows approached, many round shields were gathered over the user's head, forming a sturdy iron armor. But no matter how tightly guarded you are, there will always be some small gaps. And the dense rain of arrows cannot be completely prevented, and there will always be arrows that penetrate into the body of the person under the shield through the gap between the shield. As soon as a person was shot, a larger gap immediately appeared in the shield array, which already had many gaps. And the arrows in the back have a better chance of hitting people.

It's really a matter of luck. If you're unlucky, you'll be shot, and if you're lucky, you'll not necessarily have that luck. However, running fast will still increase the chances of survival. Therefore, in the gap between the Yellow Turban Army in the city and the second wave of arrow rain. Cao Dejun's sword and shield men under the city increased their speed again and accelerated towards the city.

The Yellow Turban Army in the city released a total of four waves of arrows. The vanguard of the besieging officers had already arrived at the foot of the city walls of Qinghe City. And the 2,000-man sword and shield bearers also paid nearly 500 casualties. After all, the Yellow Turban Army in Qinghe City is different from the Yellow Turban Army in other places. Let's not talk about the quality of the soldiers, at least the equipment of the soldiers is much better. From the rain of arrows shot from the city, it can be seen that the Yellow Turbans in the city are well equipped.

From the range of the Yellow Turbans in the city to running under the walls. The four waves of arrows shot by the Yellow Turban Army were all abundant.

At this time, the Yellow Turban Army at the head of the city could no longer shoot arrows arbitrarily. Because at this time, the last archers of the official army to set off were almost in range. He also released arrows at the head of the city with his body exposed, that is, he used them as targets for the archers of the officers and soldiers who were better than themselves outside the city.

At this time, the archers of the Yellow Turban Army ran to the back. The able-bodied soldiers stepped forward and threw the large stones that had been prepared long ago into the city. There were many Yellow Turban warriors who had Cao Dejun's arrows stuck in their chests when they just lifted the stones. But the stones lifted because of the gravitational effect. Some will fall under the city and smash on the heads of the Cao Dejun soldiers under the city. Some fell inside, beside people who had just been shot. Then another Yellow Turban soldier would lift the stone and throw it down.

Soon, under Qinghe City, there were already more and more Taoist Cao De's saber and shield hands gathered together. And the stones thrown down by the Yellow Turbans in the city played a big role. Almost every stone hits a person. Then the body of the stone was stained with bright red blood and fell to the ground. However, after a while, these stones will be useless. Because the siege troops who resisted the ladder had also followed closely behind the sword and shield bearers and came to the city wall. Subsequently, ladders were erected at the top of the city. The sword and shield hand, who had been holding his breath before, immediately carried the shield behind him, bit the knife in his mouth and climbed up the ladder to the city.

The current Yellow Turban Army no longer dares to blatantly expose their bodies and shoot arrows or throw stones at the city. Because Cao Dejun's archers had already entered the shooting range, they continued to shoot arrows at the densely swaying people on the head of the city. Although Cao Dejun's bow and arrows are also very sharp, in order to keep the city, there are still yellow turban soldiers who keep going down and still stones.

The ladder is a powerful weapon invented by people to siege cities. It's like a knife and a shield. With a ladder, there are naturally tools to defend against ladders. Soon, the ladders were pushed out of direction by the Yellow Turban military pole at the head of the city. Due to the relationship of time, Cao Dejun only had simple ladders and did not make heavy ladders with strong defense. At this time, the Cao Dejun soldiers who were climbing on the toppled ladder picked up a small life because of the shields they were carrying on their backs.

On the battlefield of panic, no one pays attention to what is behind them, let alone a soldier who is falling from a height. Cao Dejun's soldiers carried their shields behind their backs to prevent the tip of an erected knife, stone, or the like from penetrating their bodies or breaking their spine when they landed.

Gradually, the siege war entered the white heat. The besieging side tried everything to climb to the top of the city. With the arrival of the siege engines, victory seems to have been forgotten. The main method of attack of the heavy siege engines was to smash open the gates with the huge logs hanging in the middle. Let more soldiers enter the city from the hole in the city gate. However, due to the fact that the siege vehicle targets were too large and slow, the soldiers around the siege vehicle suffered the greatest losses. Just when the soldiers were about to push the siege cart into the city gate hole after all the hardships. A curtain of fire oil poured down from the city. Suddenly, the entire city gate cave was plunged into a sea of fire.

The huge siege engine was also ignited with fire oil, burning violently. On the side, Cao Dejun's soldiers were on fire one by one, constantly screaming and rolling on the ground.

In the previous defense. Zhang Bao is to prevent the use of large-scale siege equipment, and the fire oil has not been used. It wasn't until Cao Dejun's siege vehicle appeared that Zhang Bao ordered the few fire oils to be taken out, and it played the greatest role at the critical moment.

Cao De, who had been in the rear, saw that the siege vehicle had been engulfed in flames, and immediately Mingjin retreated. Any further fight will only increase casualties.
