Chapter 594: One Shot, Three Swords and Arrows (1/2)

Zhang Fei has no worries about his life. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, due to the suddenness of the incident, the spear shot by the Eight Bull Crossbow directly nailed Tie Hua to death on the spot. Zhang Fei was caught off guard and was also dizzy. Later, he was shot with two arrows, although it was not a fatal injury, but the arrow was equipped with a barb, which really tossed this Zhang Sanye a lot. After the arrow was taken out, Zhang Sanye fell unconscious, and he didn't even go to greet Xun Chen's arrival.

Xun Chen was also quite helpless about this.

Speaking of which, Zhang Fei's handling is not a mistake.

When your whereabouts are detected, it is a good idea to attack. According to the relays of others, there was nothing wrong with the arrangement Zhang Fei made at that time. Sending people to open the city gates and then taking the opportunity to launch a sneak attack is a choice that every general will make. If you change places, maybe the city has already fallen. It's a pity that Zhang Sanye's luck is not good, this sneak attack is Wuyin County.

Although Cao Peng is not in Wuyin, it does not mean that he will let his guard down.

In fact, Cao Peng made good use of tricks to fight with Ma Teng's father and son in the northwest, and often used surprise attacks.

How can such a person be defenseless? It's like Cao Cao likes to cut off people's grain channels the most, so he also attaches great importance to his own grain routes. Cao Peng, such a master who is easy to use sneak attacks, how can he be easily attacked by others? If Xun Chen was there at that time, once he was aware of the traces, he would immediately set out the carriage and horses, and he would never use any sneak attack strategy. Because, that is likely to be designed by the other party.

Sheep!

Xun Chen patted his forehead lightly, feeling a trace of helplessness.

This is an extremely unfamiliar name, but I didn't expect that Zhang Fei almost died.

Blame Zhang Fei?

Not!

In this matter, Zhang Fei's decision cannot be said to be wrong.

If there was anything wrong with Zhang Fei, it was that he was too light on the enemy, so much so that after his whereabouts were discovered, he actually attacked.

In this matter, the problem is not Zhang Fei.

The real root is actually in Xun Chen.

Xun Chen glanced at Zhao Yun, who was standing beside him, silent, and suddenly regretted a little: If Zilong had been the pioneer at that time, maybe it wouldn't have been like this.

Zilong is not a talent for commanding troops!

This is Liu Bei's evaluation of Zhao Yun.

But even Liu Bei couldn't deny Zhao Yun's ability to carry out orders.

Moreover, the so-called ability to command the army is not impossible to cultivate. If you don't give him the opportunity to command the troops, even if Zhao Yun has this talent, he won't be able to show it. According to Xun Chen's observations, Zhao Yun is indeed an excellent executor. And if it is said that the army is marching and arranging the formation, and the army is in battle, Zhao Yun is not impossible. But Zhao Yun's most suitable type of army for commanders is cavalry...... But it is precisely one of Liu Bei's weaknesses.

In Liu Bei's hands, there were not many cavalry troops.

And these few cavalry troops were basically commanded by Zhang Fei.

In contrast, Zhang Fei is more worthy of Liu Bei's trust than Zhao Yun, which makes Zhao Yun lose the opportunity to display his talents. Perhaps it is for this reason that Liu Bei will say the words 'Zhao Yun is not suitable for commanding troops'. can think about it, thinking that Zhao Yun could lead an army alone under Gongsun Zhan's account, how could he not command the army? To put it bluntly, it was just an excuse for Liu Bei, and everyone knew it.

Zhao Yun has a calm temperament and acts capably.

If Zhao Yun replaces Zhang Fei, he will definitely stabilize his position first.

Since the sneak attack fails, the only way to do it is to attack. If you sneak attack for the sake of sneak attack, it is easy to be calculated by others, which is also Zhao Yun's advantage.

"Zilong!"

"Whoa!"

"The three generals are still in a coma, and under their command, you will be in command for the time being."

"Huh?"

Xun Chen was very optimistic about Zhao Yun, so he smiled and said to Zhao Yun: "The three generals are all brave men. If it weren't for Zilong, who would be able to make him submit? Before the three generals recover, the cavalry will be under your command, and later, accompany me to check on the enemy. ”

"Whoa!"

Zhao Yun was ecstatic in his heart and nodded again and again.

Say that Zhao Yun has no ambitions? That's pure!

In these years, everyone who has some ability hopes to establish a meritorious career.

The same is true for Zhao Yun...... At the beginning, he led a group of people and horses, not far away, to defect to Liu Bei. I thought that I could be reused under Liu Bei's account, but I didn't want to be a tooth keeper and a personal leader. To put it bluntly, he is Liu Bei's bodyguard, a thug, and he has never been able to gallop across the field like he did under Gongsun Zhan's tent. Although Liu Bei treated Zhao Yun very well, in Zhao Yun's heart, there was always a trace of regret. He couldn't compete with Zhang Fei for the right to command the army, because he and Zhang Fei had no advantage.

Even if they fight, they will end up having trouble with Liu Bei's subordinates.

This is definitely not what Zhao Yun wants!

In his heart, he was a little envious of Xia Houlan.

Xia Houlan's martial arts and art of war are far inferior to Zhao Yun. When he was in Baima Yicong, his status was far inferior to Zhao Yun...... But now?

Xiahoulan led an army alone in Hexi to resist Hulu, which can be described as infinitely beautiful.

Don't underestimate the position of the commander of the army, but in Hexi County, he is definitely the number one boss in the military. In charge of the military government, he commanded the soldiers and horses, and shocked Mobei...... Isn't this exactly what Tong Yuan expected most from Zhao Yun when Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan were studying art in Changshan?

It's a pity that the personal disciple of the gun king Tong Yuan failed to realize his ideals.

On the contrary, it was the guy who was looked down on by Tong Yuan, but now he has taken on his ideals......

Every time I think about it, Zhao Yun doesn't have a taste in his heart. But what could he do? thinks that at the beginning, he valued Liu Bei and rejected Cao Peng; Now, although he envied Xia Houlan's good luck, he did not regret it. It's just that in my heart, I am more or less lost.

Xun Chen ordered Zhao Yun to lead the cavalry, which was in line with Zhao Yun's thoughts.

In my heart, I couldn't help but feel a little more grateful to Xun Chen, and at the same time, I was even more determined to bring this cavalry army well, so as to live up to Xun Chen's expectations.

"This is the thing that shot the mounts of the three generals?"

After Xun Chen made the arrangements, he picked up the spear from the handsome case and looked at it carefully.

This spear, about nine feet long, is almost comparable to the length of an ordinary large gun. The barrel of the gun is made of hard wood, with a certain degree of flexibility. The blade of the gun, two feet three inches long, has a triangular shape. It can be seen that this is specially made by the other party, and there is still a certain difference from ordinary spears. Each edge is like a sharp sword, extremely sharp. If this were to be ejaculated on the body, it would definitely create an astonishing wound that would not be curable. Just looking at the shape of this spear made Xun Chen feel frightened.

Although the crossbow appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Xun Chen saw a spear of such a shape for the first time.

"Zilong, how far can this thing shoot?"

Xun Chen raised his head and asked Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun also saw this kind of spear for the first time, and he was a little unclear.

Hearing Xun Chen ask him, he smiled bitterly and said, "I can't say, but according to the wound of Yide's mount, he was killed by a blow from this spear." At that time, Yide was about one hundred and fifty paces away from the city wall, and according to the strength of this spear, it was at least three hundred paces, and the lethality was amazing. ”

Three hundred steps?

Xun Chen frowned!

I'm afraid it's more than that......

He saw with his own eyes the death of Zhang Fei's iron horse.

The spear pierced directly through Tie Hua's neck, tearing apart the muscles around the wound. The nine-foot-long spear, which was nearly halfway in, was enough to illustrate the tremendous power generated when the spear was thrown. This can't be artificially thrown, I'm afraid that there are still some special weapons hidden in Wuyin City. Three hundred steps? Zhao Yun's speculation was much more conservative. According to Xun Chen's estimates, the range of this spear is at least 500 paces away. This also made Xun Chen feel a trace of inexplicable fear! In Wuyin County, how many of these ordnance are there that fire guns and spears? If you rashly launch an attack on Wuyin County under circumstances that do not know the actual situation, you will inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

"Zilong, come with me to watch the battle."

"Whoa!"

Xun Chen decided that it would be better to observe it for himself.

He took Zhao Yun and walked out of the gate, and when there were still about six hundred steps away from the Wuyin City Wall, he put up a pergola and looked at it from afar.

But I can see that there is silence in Wuyin City.

From Xun Chen's point of view, he couldn't even see the soldiers on the head of Wuyin City.

The deathly silence shrouded the sky above the county seat of Wuyin. Xun Chen couldn't help but feel an inexplicable pressure and was silent for a long time.

"Strategist, do you want to test it?"

Zhao Yun asked softly.

Xun Chen thought for a while, turned back to the herald and said: "Ordered the trebuchet to be erected, and to Wuyin County, three rounds of turns." ”

He wanted to see how Wuyin would react.

Now, the army in Wuyin County is empty, Chen Zhi is in Bowang to contain Wei Yan, and Liu Bei Guan Yu has quietly set up an ambush, waiting for Cao Peng to come back.

As long as he can capture the county seat of Wuyin, he can have an immeasurable impact on Jingzhou.

Previously, the Jingxiang people did not dare to provoke Cao Cao because of Cao Cao's strong military power...... But if Wuyin can be captured, then for the main battle faction in Jingzhou, it will undoubtedly gain a greater right to speak. Even Liu Biao will change his previous decision because of this.

But this does not mean that Xun Chen will act rashly.

By this time, all words pale in comparison.

The so-called words of persuasion do not need to be talked about at all. Since Wuyin City launched an attack on Zhang Fei last night, it shows that the determination of Wuyin County cannot be shaken. The only way to attack is ...... Xun Chen ordered his soldiers to line up and set up stone throwers outside the city, and at the same time pay more attention to the reaction of the head of Wuyin City.

It's just that no matter what kind of actions Liu Beijun makes, the head of Wuyin City is still silent......

"Three-wheeled throw."

Xun Chen rode his horse to the front of the military formation, stared at the head of Wuyin City, and gave an order.

More than 100 stone throwing machines, with the creaking sound of the machine, one by one the stones were instantly thrown out, and they bombarded the city wall of Wuyin. A loud noise could be heard even at a great distance from the city walls. Many gravels crossed the city and flew into the county seat of Wuyin. The rumbling sound kept coming, but there was still no movement at the head of Wuyin City, and even the figure could not be seen.

Xun Chen, I couldn't help but gasp!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

At the same time, the soldiers at the head of the city were hiding behind the walls.

A stone fell on the city wall, and stone chips splattered...... One of the soldiers was caught off guard and was hit on the top of his head by a stone, and his brain burst and he fell in a pool of blood.

The red blood made Deng Ai's heart pound.

The little face showed a pale color, although he was full of military books, but for Deng Ai, it was the first time he had seen this scene of flying stones. The enemy army under the city, tens of thousands...... The dense array and outside the city brought an inexplicable coercion to people, making Deng Ai's small hand holding the gavel tightly and couldn't help but tremble slightly. This kind of wordless temptation is the most nerve-wracking! A stone overhead and slammed into the gatehouse. The flagpole with the thickness of the bowl mouth suddenly snapped, and the roar made Deng Ai's hand tremble, and a mallet struck on the crossbow of the bed in front of him...... The spear that had been wound flew out with a terrible sound of breaking through the air as the mallet struck the machine!
