(I've been busy with work late.,Sometimes it's late to update.,Yesterday it was broken.,Forgive me.,In fact, it's harder to do so.,Especially now that I've put a lot of energy in another book.,Fortunately, the results are acceptable to the individual for the time being.,Now I really regret opening it twice.,But the wooden method is like this; So here, please also ask for new children's shoes to be able to support this book to top that one, so that it is not in vain that I have to take time out to change this one~)

"Panic what!" At this moment, Xu Huang shouted angrily, his originally pale face turned red, covering up the weakness and haggard after being injured a little, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart.

Xiahou Yuan's arrow just now, at most Liwei, and now Lu Bu's arrow is really fatal, and in fact, he is not injured by Lu Bu's arrow as the soldiers think, although it is indeed injured, but the skin injury is not so serious, let alone vomiting blood, mainly because of the "Dong" word banner fell down a scene of anger, plus just fell off guard and the internal organs were shocked, this breath did not ease before spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But obviously this has caused an impact in the hearts of all the soldiers, and it is difficult to remedy it just by pressing it like this, but at this time when he was thinking of a way, a neat and loud cheer sounded from the side of the alliance army outside the city at the right time:

"Wen Hou is mighty!"

"And the state will fly ......"

"Tiger Prison God of War ......"

"The First ...... of the Han Dynasty"

"Invincible ......"

This voice clearly came from the camp of the state army in the alliance of the princes of Dong, although the specific combat power of this army had not yet been shown in front of the eyes of the other princes. But just from the rumors of several battle examples, coupled with the mental outlook shown at the moment, especially even the chorus shouting seems to be well-trained, at least no one else dares to say that the army under his command can do this, it is enough to make people expect and be vigilant about this army, such an army is not far behind under the command of a general like Lu Bu.

At this time, the voice of the Bingzhou army was actually to cheer for Lu Bu, and at the same time, it was also Zhang Liao's instigation, but looking at the fanatical expressions on their faces one by one, it was clear that they were sincerely captured by Lu Bu's bravery.

Zhang Liao's consideration was that he should take advantage of the victory to pursue. Taking advantage of the city, the military flag representing Dong Zhuo was shot by Wen Hou. At the same time, when the main general Xu Huang also seemed to be injured and vomited blood, which brought a huge psychological impact to the defenders, these shouts of Tong Guò deepened their impression, and would also magnify the blow to the point of being unbearable. Further weakens its morale. This is beneficial for the Union Army. Of course, it is also beneficial to Lu Bu, who is now in the alliance; On the other hand, this is also really cheering for Lu Bu, making him more powerful at the moment. It will also be more secure in the league.

After all, he became the deputy leader of the alliance before, to put it bluntly, it is a temporary name, and it is very difficult for everyone to obey him, because his reputation is not enough, and he needs to do this several times to deepen his status in the minds of the alliance members, not only a brave general, but also a superior who can really determine the general trend of the world.

At this time, Lu Bu was still under the cover of the rain of arrows on the city tower, but his momentum was obviously a little weaker than Fang Cai, and it was obvious that the successive blows made the archers on the city tower a little absent-minded.

Lu Bu and Chi Su also seemed relaxed, he would never let go of this opportunity, taking advantage of the fact that the enemy soldiers at the head of the city seemed to be still dazed, and Xu Huang was not able to stand up and rectify immediately, he immediately called on all the troops under his command to follow him, and began to actually fulfill his responsibilities as a vanguard, rushing forward to prepare for the siege.

And Xiahou Yuan, who was defeated in this vanguard battle, was not to be outdone at this time, and led the troops to rush up, and when he came to Lu Bu's side, he specially said to him: "The vanguard is yours, and the first credit after breaking the city is also yours, but the head of the main general of the defenders will be returned to the abyss......"

Lu Bu's eyes narrowed, looking at Xiahou Yuan with a long laugh, waving his hand and shouting "Charge with a certain one" while galloping his back, and suddenly smiled: "That Hou can still protect him today!" ”

At this time, seeing that the enemy troops outside the city rushed over to see that they were about to start attacking the city, the archers in the city were panicked, and Xu Huang's force pressure really had no effect, and the chaos was still so chaotic.

Xu Huang almost shook his body angrily again, shook his head, and suddenly sobered up a little, he knew that the situation was urgent and he didn't dare to slack off, and he couldn't take care of his slight health, so he immediately began to take command of the defending army.

Which people go to which position, where to go and what to do, these are actually originally planned, and it does not seem abrupt at this time, and Xu Huang still shows the steady general Su zhì at this time, for which he finally won the trust of his subordinate soldiers in the panic, and his orders were naturally fully conveyed and practiced in the trust.

All kinds of counterattack weapons on the head of the city were moved, and with Li Ru's approval, Xu Huang's preparations for defending the city this time were very sufficient, not only moved large ordnance such as trebuchets, but also the arrows in reserve could withstand consumption, which was also when Xiahou Yuan and Lu Bu rushed over alone, Xu Huang still ordered the archers to shoot with power, and he didn't think of the problem of consumption at all; On the other hand, everyone knows that war is not entirely a matter of army soldiers in many cases, and the scheduling of various logistics and the requisition of people will also play a very important role, and when the alliance army first came to the city a few days ago, Xu Huang ordered to call on the whole city to mobilize, and each family sent one or two people to serve as the porters of materials in the city.

This move was even more effective at this time, not only greatly reducing the pressure on the defending soldiers, allowing them to devote themselves to the defense of the city without distraction, but also making the people in the city and the defenders hate the same enemy, even if there was no hatred in the first place, and maybe even some welcome, but after the war, there will inevitably be casualties, which will naturally form hatred.

This is actually a kind of kidnapping, Xu Huang didn't want to do it, but he had his helplessness and had no choice but to do it.

The army of the alliance of the princes of Dong pressed the border, and the soldiers outside the city were densely packed and the number of soldiers who have been increasing in the past few days made the defenders under great pressure, and their spirits were tense all the time, so they simply broke out the backlog of things for several days at this time, and the enthusiasm was very high, under the command of Xu Huang, the archers first fired in unison.

This time is different from the previous strafing that only targeted Lu Bu alone, when the enemy army is attacking on a large scale, even if it is a random indiscriminate shot without a clear purpose, it is very likely to hit whoever and whom, anyway, survival at this time depends on luck, and there is absolute strength like Lu Bu.

Correspondingly, even if the military order is to "rush", it is really difficult for the alliance army to rush at the moment, after all, they have to protect the ladder, hit the city wood and the tower together, often someone in the front row is shot by an arrow and falls, even if the back row wants to step on the corpse of the robe, it has to take its original position, to ensure that the siege equipment can always move forward.

But even so, it is inevitable that some siege ordnance will be destroyed in the process, because the city is not only shot by ordinary feather arrows, but also rockets, of course, one has no effect, but it is shot in a pile, and most of the siege equipment based on wooden structures cannot hold up at all, and even some soldiers below are also affected, and the smell of burnt ash charcoal begins to fill the whole heaven and earth with wails and screams, which adds a bit of disgust.
