Seeing that he had entered the land of an arrow, he only heard a commotion above the city, and with a numbing buzzing sound, dense arrows suddenly rained down on Zhang Nannan's array!

"Dododo......" The foot soldiers are close behind the wooden card that blocks the arrows, and from time to time there are bursts of chilling sounds on the wooden cards, and from time to time there are soldiers who are shot by stray arrows, and fall to the ground screaming and wailing, and the kung fu on the shield is full of arrows after a while, and from a distance, it is white like a reed, but for a while, there is no way to cause too much damage to the giant deer army.

However, hiding on the arrow block can only be used as a passive defense. After being pushed closer to about fifty steps, Zhang Nan, who was standing outside an arrow, shouted: "Summons the order to release the arrow!" Well Strike! ”

The red flag in the hands of the flag bearer beside him was unfurled, and with the sound of more rapid and passionate war drums, the archers hiding behind the arrow blocking car finally began to fight back!

Hundreds of archers rushed out of the archery carts one after another, and continued to pour arrows on the city! However, there are so few shooters who rush to the city that apart from harassing and attracting the attention of the city head, the damage caused is minimal!

In order to pursue dexterity, the giant deer archers only wore leather armor, and a piece of iron was embedded in the front and back of their chests, how could they block the sharpness of the bow, and in a few breaths, more than ten people were killed and wounded!

At this time, three wells entered the battlefield under the impetus of dozens of strong foot soldiers with heavy armor, this well chariot was four zhang high, two zhang wide, the bottom was pushed by wheels, weighing thousands of catties, there was one on it, and each had ten archers.

The appearance of the well is suddenly attracted the attention of the defenders of the city, and all of a sudden, nearly a hundred arrows are whistling towards the giant deer soldiers on the platform, although the archers on the well are covered by animal skins on their heads, and there are wooden cards in front of them, but the number of archers on it is really limited, and the height is not as good as the city wall, and the effect is worse than the arrow car!

Seeing that the soldiers under his command suffered nearly 100 casualties in less than a cup of tea, Zhang Nan's angry eyes erupted into flames, gritted his teeth and shouted: "The archers fill the vacancy, and the siege vehicles attack!" ”

A hundred archers hurried forward as they were told, and a siege cart wrapped in layers of cooked cowhide rushed forward......

And this is still under the assistance of siege equipment, if there are no siege equipment, the casualties of the giant deer army will be doubled!

And these huge and bulky siege equipment were not invincible, under the continuous rocket fire, a well car burned and caught fire, and several archers on the platform jumped from the high platform, breaking bones and tendons! Several arrow blocking vehicles could not escape the doom, the siege vehicle rushed to the city gate at the cost of more than 200 archers on their side, and before they hit it twice, they saw a hail of rolling logs and stones falling overhead, and the siege vehicle was suddenly smashed and fell apart! A dozen sergeants in the car were also smashed into pulp!

Zhang Nan's heart was dripping blood, on the battlefield, hundreds of soldiers were under the dense arrows, struggling to shoot back to the city, from time to time there were screams from the arrows, and some sergeants were shot to the ground by rockets, and the wailing was endless for a long time!

At this moment of the battle, there have been two or three hundred soldiers who have closed their eyes forever, this kind of siege that only increases casualties makes Zhang Nan extremely heartbroken, the key reason is that the Huguan wall is high, and the most effective ladder in the siege cannot play much effect at all!

Wen Yuan watched with a solemn face at the almost one-sided battle under the pass, and in only half an hour, the number of Julu sergeants who fell in a pool of blood reached more than 300! And the casualties of the Huguan defenders are less than one-third of the attacking houses!

Thinking that this battle had already created enough pressure from the defending officers and soldiers, Wen Yuan sighed faintly and ordered Mingjin.

Hearing the sound of Mingjin coming from the enemy's formation, the defenders cheered, but they saw the besieging soldiers retreating in an orderly manner, and they left clean in a short time, except for a few still burning instruments under the wall, not even a single corpse of a fallen soldier was left, and their hearts were awe-inspiring, and the joy of the victory just disappeared quickly.

When he returned to the camp to count the number of people, a total of more than 300 people were lost, Wen Yuan was depressed, and the generals also bowed their heads and remained silent.

Tian Fengjin said: "Although this battle suffered a small setback, it made the Huguan defenders dare not underestimate the combat strength of our army, so that our army can confront here and wait for the letter of filial piety." ”

Wen Yuan nodded and said: "According to what Mr. said, but it is still necessary to build more siege equipment in case of emergency, and the other departments must also take turns to feint to make the defenders not suspicious, and when the filial piety soldiers arrive, they will go all out to flank the attack!" ”

…………

The words were divided into two ends, Guo Jia led Su You, Zhou Cang's 1,300 troops to leave the brigade, all the way to the north, in order to maintain secrecy, Guo Jia picked up remote paths day and night, once found someone, they were all tied up and hidden in a secret place.

These 1,300 sergeants are almost all the elite veterans who came out of Xiaquyang, especially the 300 Xuanyingwei, who are the existence of the Julu Army that makes others look up to them.

But all the foot soldiers who were born in Quyang, looking at today, if they call them second in terms of marching speed, no one dares to call them first, and no one will be left behind in a journey of more than 100 miles overnight, which makes Guo Jia, who was originally worried about the war in Huguan, secretly surprised!

Guo Jia understands that attacking Huguan head-on can only be a waste of military strength, and one more day of delay will cost more soldiers' lives.

However, after traveling for more than 400 miles in three consecutive nights, Guo Jia's troops entered the Taihang Mountains again, and the speed of the march was reduced by most of them, not to mention, and they also entered the area controlled by Zhang Yan and Geng Zhi of Montenegro.

When he arrived here, Guo Jia was cautious at every step, but it was a pity that the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and as soon as he stepped out of Jingcheng Pass and stepped into the border of Bingzhou, he met Geng Zhi's small team of Bingzhou light cavalry!

Zhou Cang's led more than 20 Xuanying guards to explore the road on foot, and was bumping into a cavalry squad patrolling, and both sides found each other almost at the same time, Zhou Cang was in a panic at the moment, and the team suddenly found an army of unknown origin, and it was not clear for a while!

"Copy guys! them! After the panic, Zhou Cang gritted his teeth and shouted, raised his big sword, and rushed towards this cavalry team of less than thirty people in one step!

Seeing that the people came and attacked, they were also panicked, but seeing that the opponent was only more than 20 people, they didn't care at the moment, and more than 20 horsemen scattered around with a whistle, forming an arc to surround everyone in Zhoucang.

Zhou Cang raised his head and laughed, and was about to rush forward to fight for a while, when he suddenly thought of Guo Junshi's instructions not to let outsiders know his whereabouts, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly shouted: "Stop, form a circle to defend the emperor!" ”
