308 Battle of Sanyo II 7th Update
"Put!" Guo Jia gave an order, and more than 20 catapults once again let out a terrible roar, and the boulder broke through the sky and rose into the sky. "Boom, boom, boom......"
This time, the effect was obviously much better than the last time, there were five boulders in the middle of the city wall, more than 30 Cao soldiers were killed on the spot, and the female wall of the city was eliminated a lot.
After two projectiles, the losses of the Cao army did not seem to be large, but the psychological shock to the Cao soldiers defending the city was indescribable......
Thousands of pounds of boulders fell from the sky at such a high speed, smashing people like broken watermelons, and blood, minced meat, and organs were splashed everywhere, which was extremely terrifying.
What was even more frightening was that these horrible stones came from outside their power, and they could neither destroy the stone-throwing equipment from a distance, nor could they rush out of the city and burn it in the midst of the enemy's encirclement. I could only watch as rounds of stone rain fell from the sky, taking their lives.
In addition to the horror, the flying stones in the sky fell in turns, and became more and more accurate, and the city was full of rotten corpses.
Cao Bing was frightened, holding a shield and hiding behind the female wall shivering, but for the stone bullet, the protective effect of the female wall and the shield was infinitely close to zero. A thousand catties of boulders falling from the sky directly knocked down the female wall, and Cao Bing, who was hiding behind the wall, smashed out together, the shield was broken into several pieces, and the whole body was not left. The head and left shoulder flew into the city, and the lower half of the body was half to the left and half to the right.
As mentioned above, the six Cao pawns shattered like a water balloon and died a horrible death.
The timid Cao Bing saw that the city wall in front of him turned into a Shura hell in an instant, and he was so frightened that he was incontinent, and his crotch was dry and muddy, and he was lying on the ground shivering, screaming non-stop; With a bit of brain, he immediately realized that the city wall under his feet was no longer a place to stay for a long time, and if he stayed here, he would become a graveyard for himself and his robes. They began to flee and ran as hard as they could down the city. But at the entrance of the city gate, he was blocked by the supervision team led by Li Mu himself, "Get back for me." Take a step back and shoot and kill. ”
In front is a cold butcher's knife, and behind is a flying stone that shakes the sky. Cao Bing was in a dilemma...... Thinking about it, being hit by a flying stone is a probability event, and it may not necessarily be stoned to death, but escaping from the battle is difficult to escape.
After the tyranny, they had to bend their waists and cover their heads and return to their respective posts. It was also at this time that a flying stone fell from the sky and smashed on the gatehouse of the city head impartially.
Under the impact of the huge stones, half of the gatehouse collapsed, and under the action of the huge force, the entire city wall trembled, and the people who fell from the head of the city turned on their backs and were dizzy.
The most shocking person in Cao Ying's camp was Li Dian. If he hadn't been concerned about the current situation, he wouldn't have stayed in the city tower at this time, and he would have to be smashed in the ruins. However, as the commander of the first army, he knows that his every move has a crucial impact on the morale of his soldiers.
He secretly suppressed his restless heart, stood on the scarred city wall with his head held high, and put on a posture of living and dying with his subordinates.
But the show is a show after all, and the Cao soldiers in Changyi City trembled in the face of the fierce boulders, squatting on the city and not daring to raise their heads. It stands to reason that at this time, Guo Jia only needs to launch a fierce attack and occupy the city wall without much effort.
But Guo Jia didn't do that. He seemed to have a bit of a sense of flirtation, and did not march, but only threw stones.
A round of stone rain smashed to the head of the city, then loaded the bullet, projected again, and so on and so on, more than ten times in an hour, more than 300 Cao soldiers were killed and wounded, the southeast and northeast part of the city wall began to loosen, the female wall fell a large section, and the main body of the city wall was also cut off a large piece.
After a brief period of changing nets, catapults, and ammunition, the church army continued to throw, from morning to night.
In the evening, they changed to a new type of bomb throwing to toss Cao Bing. The main body of the bomb is a metal ball with sharp barbs around it. The lethality of such an appearance is still good, but the more terrifying is behind.
More than 20 iron balls were thrown out in a round and smashed on the city wall, and countless soldiers were killed and crushed to death by the iron balls. After the iron ball was hit with great force, it shattered, and the high-concentration alcohol that filled it splattered out, and it was sprinkled all over the castle, and the inner side of the city wall.
At the same time, the Thunderbolt was reloaded, this time with a flaming boulder. The stone burst out of the air and fell into the city, setting the alcohol on the walls on fire.
"Huh......" in an instant, the head of Changyi City was flooded by the blue alcohol flames, and the soldiers who were ignited by the flames rolled on the ground screaming. But the ground was full of alcohol, and the more the fire burned, the more it burned.
Li Dian hurriedly sent someone to carry water to extinguish the fire, but how could the high concentration of alcohol be so easily diluted? A bucket of water went down, and the fire spread faster. The whole city of Changyi is illuminated as daylight.
The fire on the head of the city had not yet been extinguished, and new projectiles loaded with alcohol flew up the walls. This time, the effect of the iron ball was different, the sphere fell on the city, covered in flames, and the flames ignited the alcohol inside the ball along the cracks in the sphere. The alcohol burst into flames, and under the rapid and huge air pressure, the iron ball exploded.
"Boom!" It was like more than 20 thunderbolts exploding at the same time. Barbed iron splattered in all directions, killing countless people. The head of Changyi City has completely fallen into a miserable hell on earth.
Changyi City has become like this, Guo Jia is still not in a hurry to attack the city, and continues to throw stones, and he does not stop until late at night.
Far away from Changyi, you can see the burning stones flickering with thick firelight, rising into the air and falling on the head of Changyi City. The latter was under constant smashing, and it burned like a bonfire. The flames danced in the wind, and the air around them steamed, forming a vague circle of aura.
Such an aggrieved battle, Li Dianbei said that he had never encountered it, and he had never even heard of it. The enemy launched a fierce attack on the city, but they could not reach the city at the head of the city, so they could only watch and wait for death.
Li Dian knew that it would not work like this, and continuing to hold on was just sending the soldiers to death in vain. The city is definitely unable to hold, he decisively ordered, let the soldiers and horses withdraw from the city wall, out of the east gate to retreat to Jinan, intending to temporarily join Cao Cao, who sent troops to Jinan, the two armies to cooperate together, and then take Shanyang back.
He walked down the city, and the soldiers trapped in the city had just retreated halfway, only to hear a "boom". The east city wall of Changyi, which has stood for a hundred years, finally couldn't stand the stone smashing and fire roasting today, and nearly half of it collapsed.
The hundreds of soldiers on the wall who had not had time to go down to the city were instantly overturned in the ruins of the city wall, buried by sand, and their lives were uncertain.
"Li Mu!" Li Dian watched the deputy general Li Mu disappear in the mound of dirt and stones, and his eyes were so anxious that he was about to go to the city to rescue him like crazy, but he was stopped by his own soldiers.
"Let me go, I have to save him."
Several pro-soldiers grabbed Li Dian and didn't let go, crying sadly: "General, calm down." Calm down! General Li Mu died. Let's run away, it's too late if we don't. ”
Listen to the belated drums of war outside the city and the slogan of the Church army "In the name of Our Lady, kill ......". Li Dian exclaimed sadly, "Li Mu...... Sooner or later, I will avenge your revenge. Walk! Carrying a gun and getting on his horse, he led more than a thousand remnants of the soldiers to escape from the east gate as quickly as possible.
Don't take the avenue, pick the trail, hurry up, and escape from more than three miles in one go. I just wanted to take a breath, but I heard a cannon in the forest on the east side. A group of men and horses came out of the forest shouting, and it was impossible to see how many people and horses there were in the dark night, at least more than two thousand. The red-faced general, who was the leader, held the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, crossed the thousands of miles of smoke and cloud beasts with his feet, and shouted loudly: "Guan Yunchang is here, where is the traitor!" ”
Guan Yu's deeds of Wenjiu and Huaxiong are transmitted all over the world, and there are several versions of the current storytelling alone. Therefore, for Guan Yu, Li Dian can be said to have admired his name for a long time. He didn't dare to argue with him in ordinary battlefield confrontations, not to mention that he was now in a state of confinement and was in a position of passive defeat.
He didn't dare to entangle with Guan Yu more, fought desperately, and after leaving behind more than 500 Cao soldiers, he fought to the death, fought to the death, fought his way out of the encirclement, and turned to the northeast to flee for his life.
On the way to retreat, he secretly wondered that according to his previous expectations, the church led by Guo Jia would not exceed 15,000 soldiers and horses at most. And these people have always been outside the city on the west and south sides of Changyi.
Since everyone is near Changyi City, where did the soldiers and horses come from to set up an ambush in the direction of Jinan before themselves?
After scrutinizing for a while, Li Dian finally realized where Guan Yu's soldiers came from. It turned out that when night fell, Guo Jia took advantage of the night to separate some of the men and horses of the Gongwei Thunderbolt Car, secretly walked around the city, and hid on the road that Li Dian had to pass to escape. In the dark night, of course Li Dian didn't know that Guo Jia had made such preparations, so he was led by Guo Jia by the nose without reservation, and plunged into the pocket that had been laid out a long time ago.
Fortunately, he is still alive, but the casualties are too serious, and the soldiers and horses stationed in Changyi, plus the Cao soldiers scattered in the rest of the counties, originally had more than 8,200 people, but now there are less than 300 left.
Before he had time to feel sorry for the 8200 victims, he heard a dense bangzi sound in front of him.
A silver-armored young general urged the war horse to walk out of the forest with a leisurely pace, jumped on the horse with a gun, and said: "Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, Li Mancheng has not dismounted and surrendered." ”
Li Dian waved his hand to signal the soldiers and horses to stop. looked closely, and found that the interceptor was only Zhao Yun.
A personal guard stepped forward and admonished, "General, he is only one person, why don't you kill him." ”
"No!" Li Dian's face was solemn, and in his sight, phantoms in the dark forest came and went, as if there were countless ambushes hidden. He knew that Zhao Yun was the commander of the Knights Templar, and his 5,000 heavily armored cavalry was famous all over the world, and it was impossible for him to fight alone.
Zhao Yun saw that Li Dian did not react for a long time, and shouted angrily: "Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, who dares to fight with me?" ”
