Xiangyang City!

Since Cao De's army hurriedly withdrew its ordnance, baggage, grain and grass nine years ago, Xiangyang City was once again besieged. And the people who surrounded Xiangyang are no one else, they are still the same people back then!

"Strategist, all battalions are ready!" "Boom, boom......" Ma Chao rode the horse leisurely and came to Xu Shu.

"Hmmm! Let's start with a catapult! This time, the prime minister ordered to take Jingzhou as quickly as possible. This Xiangyang City has been in Liu Biao's hands for nine more years, and it's time to return to the rightful owner! ”

"Ordered the whole army to be divided into two teams, and it was too extravagant for an army of 160,000 to besiege a small city of Xiangyang. Huang Zhong, Gao Lan, and you led the Five Guards to the east and went straight to Jiangxia. Doesn't Liu Biao still have the strength to attack Yuzhou, then don't let Cai Mao come back. ”

"No!" Huang Zhong and Gao Ran agreed, and immediately took over the Tiger Talisman of the Five Guards.

"Ma Chao listened to the order and led the Xuanwu army to make a detour to the south side of Xiangyang to cut off the connection between Xiangyang City and Liu Biao."

"Lu Bu listened to the order, and the Sword Battalion, the Solid Shield Battalion, the Blade Battalion, and the Sharp Spear Battalion surrounded Xiangyang City, and the forty catapults we brought were scattered to each city wall. Isn't Xiangyang City known as the first fortified city in Jingzhou, people don't stop, let's smash it for three days first. ”

Catapults are such a big killing weapon, Cao De naturally has a lot of inventory over the years. Although Xu Shu's South Road army and Cao De walked out of Hangu Pass almost at the same time, all the catapults that followed were given to Xu Shu by Cao De.

But when Lu Bu heard that Xu Shu was going to use a catapult to attack for three days and three nights, he immediately asked: "Military advisor, three days and three nights!" Where can you find so many stones? ”

Although the catapult is very slow to load, it can't withstand three days and three nights. Suppose a catapult could be fired twice in a quarter of an hour, and that one hour would be sixteen boulders, and in one day and one night and twelve hours, it would be one hundred and ninety-two, and in three days and three nights it would be nearly six hundred, and forty catapults would be more than twenty-three thousand. It doesn't look like much, an army of 80,000, every four people find a little more than one, but how can there be so many good stones around this Xiangyang City.

Besides, more than 20,000 stones, even Xiangyang City can be filled. And, most importantly, can the catapult last three days and three nights? The most important part of a trebuchet is the throwing arm, can a mere throwing arm last so long?

And Xu Shu's answer to Lu Bu is also very simple, "If there is no big one, vote for the small one." The small ones are gone, and they are filled with fire oil. Let's go! ”

In the end, Lu Bu could only reluctantly accept the order, and the 40,000 and five armies immediately pushed ten catapults to surround Xiangyang City. And now the knights of the Vermilion Bird Army, who have nothing to do, are also under Xu Shu's order, riding war horses to drag stones.

Xiangyang City is indeed worthy of being a strong city in the world. Just like Chen Liucheng, who was smashed by Cao De's catapult, the weak female wall scattered and flew away, and the female wall of Xiangyang City only made a dull sound after withstanding a heavy blow from the catapult, and then the boulder fell to the bottom of the city wall. As for the unfortunate female wall, it is almost intact.

"Smash, smash me, smash hard!"

Lu Bu looked at it, he was tenacious enough. Since one stone can't work, whether two or three stones can work depends on how long you can bear it.

Xu Shu's catapult was constantly roaring, while the Jingzhou defenders in the city were waiting in fear.

Last time, Xiangyang City saw that it was about to be unable to hold on, and the Cao army attacking outside the city suddenly retreated. It was a plague that saved the city of Xiangyang. And this time, they came again, and Mark was probably not so lucky this time.

In just half a day, countless stones had been thrown into Xiangyang City, but the walls of Xiangyang City did not appear to be crumbling. At least it is much better than the last time, which shows that during this period of time, Liu Biao has also strengthened Xiangyang City a lot. However, Lu Bu, who was in charge of smashing the city, found that there was almost no change in Xiangyang City, but his own stone had changed a lot. It's only been half a day, and the stones thrown by the catapult are already much smaller than before.

And when the sun was about to set, Lu Bu had already begun to use the scatter bag composed of small stones.

"Be careful, don't take the city wall as the main target, throw it in, and smash the inside of Xiangyang City for me."

"General, it's getting darker. The rockfall of the catapult is also not clear. ”

Lu Bu was still nibbling on the flatbread, and a soldier ran over to report.

"Throw some fire oil to fill, since Liu Biao doesn't light a torch for us, let's light it ourselves. And, you have to order a big one! ”

"Boom, boom, boom......"

One by one, the oil was poured out, and then it exploded on the walls of Xiangyang City and inside the city. In a moment, what appeared in front of Lu Bu's eyes was already an orange-red Xiangyang City.

"Okay, let's do it!" Lu Bu looked at the raging fire burning near the city wall and couldn't help but say happily. "Keep watching, I'll go sleep for a while!"

According to Xu Shu's order, this smash had to be smashed for three days and three nights. It's still a long time, don't rush, take your time!

As soon as Lu Bu left, the soldiers who came to change the guard also arrived. The catapult, which had just rested for less than two quarters of an hour, began to exert its power again.

Lu Bu went to sleep happily, and the soldiers of the Cao army happily continued to set off fireworks, but the soldiers of Liu Biaojun in the city were miserable.

In the past, there were still strong walls to protect it, and it was still safe for people to throw stones as long as they were not too unlucky. But since the other party used the oil oil, this thing is a fire for whoever gets it. You can't roll it out.

Moreover, looking at the meaning of Cao Jun outside the city, it seems that he doesn't want to stop at night.

When Lu Bu came to the front line the next day, the billowing plumes of smoke in Xiangyang City seemed to have been set on fire. And because most of the oil and small stones used at night are used, there was a pile of large stones next to the catapult this morning.

"Change it, it's time to change the taste of Liu Biao!"

"No!" The soldier in charge of filling answered, beckoned a few people and began to carry the stones to the catapult. But when everything is ready, when it is time to release the animals, "Click! ”

A crisp sound caught Lu Bu's attention.

"General, the throwing arm of the catapult is overwhelmed and has been crushed!"

Coincidentally, not only a catapult, but also many catapults were broken into two sections due to the overwhelm of the throwing arm after being replaced with a heavier large boulder.

"Since you can't use the big one, let's change it to the small one!"

The big stones can't be thrown anymore, so let's put fewer small stones!

Although the problem is solved, it is only temporary. Only half a day later, most of the forty catapults outside the four gates of Xiangyang City had broken their arms into two sections.

At this time, Xu Shu finally appeared. "No more? Then let's start the siege! ”

The enemy must not be given any respite. Xiangyang City must be fought down, otherwise, I will be too sorry for the nearly thirty throwing arms that were broken.

After the three drums, the soldiers of the Cao army began to take powerful steps, pushing the crash car and siege vehicle to attack Xiangyang City. At this time, Xiangyang City still has a bit of defensive power, which is really something to wait and see.
