Chapter 708, Zhuge Liang's cleverness
Although the thunderbolt can suppress the offensive of the Xichuan soldiers, so that the soldiers on the city tower have become a lot of panic, not only the archers who shoot arrows, but also the soldiers who throw boulders and rolling logs are more or less affected, but after all, the Xichuan soldiers are condescending, and under their feet is like a copper wall of Tongguan, even if many people are flustered in their hearts, on the whole, the Xichuan soldiers will still have the upper hand, and the advantage is very obvious.

Although the thunderbolt is amazingly powerful and the range is long enough, the accuracy is worse after all, and it is more of a role to cover other arms and suppress the 'firepower' of the Xichuan soldiers, but the Xichuan soldiers' collection equipment does not need any aiming, and their accuracy rarely misses, because the rebels are attacking the city, the sea of people is like a tide, dense, and swarming, even if a stone is thrown down, people will be knocked down.
The momentum of the righteous army is amazing, there are bows and crossbows in the air, there are boulders thrown at them, there are crazy charging generals on the ground, and there are siege equipment that is constantly advancing in the middle.
Rumble... Meng Jie's side, suddenly a boulder smashed down from the top of his head, Meng Jie screamed, scared out of a cold sweat, with a piercing explosion, a lot of gravel splashed out, some also flew to Meng Jie's body, Meng Jie screamed, looked back, not far from himself, three soldiers had been smashed and fell in a pool of blood, one head blossomed, two chests were smashed, even the intestines flowed out, the frightened Meng Jie hurriedly took a few steps back.
, The piercing sound kept ringing in his ears, Meng Jie just raised his head, and more than a dozen boulders flew over his head, and the frightened Meng Jie hurriedly shrank up and hid.
The power of the thunderbolt, although once hit, will die very miserably, but more is to destroy the enemy's psychological defense, even if they are not hit, these enemy soldiers will be afraid of the psychology, and they will become more and more panicked, because they don't know when they will be hit.
When the cloud car approached the Tongguan city wall, the offensive of the righteous army became more and more violent, standing on the cloud car, you can even overlook the Tongguan city, because, the height of the cloud car, as high as more than a dozen zhang, its height even exceeded the Tongguan city wall, the archers on both sides, finally launched a fair duel, the righteous army charging below, the pressure plummeted, not long after, one after another siege ladder smashed on the city wall of Tongguan.
"Smash me quickly, don't let the thieves climb the tower." Although he was flustered, Meng Jie knew that once Tongguan fell, it would not be a matter of panic, and his life would be gone.
As soon as he stood up, a wave of fierce arrow rain rushed towards him, Meng Jie hurriedly swung his sword to resist, but he was still shot in the shoulder.
As soon as the ladder fell on the city wall, the righteous soldiers who were not afraid of death climbed up the ladder one after another, but it didn't take long for them to fall down from it, some of the ladders were overturned by the enemy soldiers, some of the soldiers were hit by boulders, some were smashed down by the rolling giant trees, and even the Xichuan soldiers prepared a lot of boiling hot oil.
Tongguan is known as the Xiongguan that is not opened by a husband, even if Chen Zhuo is well prepared, he also occupies the advantage of a surprise attack in time, but it is not realistic to take Tongguan immediately, the Xichuan soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the righteous army fell to the ground in pieces.
Even if Pound personally led his troops into the war, the stalemate situation still did not change in the slightest.
………………
"Report, general, Zhao Yun's men and horses have been found in the direction of Fancheng, and there is Gao Shun in the army, and there are about 20,000 people."
Huang Zhong waved his hand and commanded in a deep voice, "Probe and report again." ”
The scout who reported the news agreed, and hurriedly retreated, Huang Zhong's hand twisted his silver hair, his face sank like water, and after a while, two sharp rays of light burst out from the pair of fierce tiger eyes, "Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, I didn't expect you to come, fortunately, my military advisor is smart." ”
Ma Chao led the troops to charge in front, and led the troops into Jingzhou early, Zhuge Liang was in the middle of the dispatch, although Zhuge Liang was not completely sure that Chen Qi would send troops, but he had always been cautious, and still left Huang Zhong's men and horses in Ba County.
Once the situation changed, Huang Zhong could take it by surprise and instantly reverse the unfavorable situation of the Xichuan soldiers.
Zhao Yun and Gao Shun were ordered to send troops to help Cao Pi, but they didn't expect that Huang Zhong, an old and strong tiger, would stare at them behind them.
Ma Zhong and Pan Zhang were reluctantly recruited by Zhuge Liang, not only did they come, but they also brought 20,000 Jiangdong soldiers. 、
For Zhuge Liang's approach, Jiangdong naturally hates it to the bone, but he dares to be angry and dare not speak, while Xichuan is up and down to Zhuge Liang is all respectful, especially Ma Yan, who has been following Zhuge Liang's side, and worships Zhuge Liang like a god.
"Military advisor, Ma Zhong and Pan Zhang, it's not that I, Ma Mengqi, look down on the two of them, they are really embarrassed."
After leading the troops to Xiangyang and setting up the camp, Ma Chao came to Zhuge Liang's tent, as soon as the front foot entered the tent, Ma Chao snorted dissatisfiedly, not that Ma Chao was conceited, Jiangdong really made him look down on him, now Jiangdong, where is there any capable person? These two people came, but they just made up the number of people and waved their flags and shouted for the Xichuan soldiers.
"Meng Qi, you are wrong, since Jiangdong and my Xichuan have formed an alliance, only I Xichuan is the leader, let them send troops to help, it is naturally reasonable, this is also what they should do, even if they are useless, they can't let them stay in Jiangdong, Meng Qi, you have to understand, Jiangdong, we will take it after all in the future."
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Zhuge Liang's implication was that Jiangdong's generals would be as few as possible, and it would be better never to have them, as long as Jiangdong had generals, Zhuge Liang would exhaust them, and he would be transferred to them as cannon fodder.
Zhuge Liang thinks long-term, but also thoughtful, if Jiangdong accumulates grass and grain, sooner or later he will get out of Xichuan's control, if he is weak, he doesn't even have the power to protect himself, he can only rely on Xichuan forever to obey orders, Xichuan wants to take Jiangdong, it's just a matter of effort.
Zhuge Liang is indeed clever, and Sun Quan also had to send troops to Jingzhou to help in the war, but Jingzhou is not without capable people!
At this moment in Jiangdong, in Sun Quan's line, Sun Quan gathered the strategists around him together and was discussing countermeasures.
Zhou Yu took away 20,000 people before, almost all the army was wiped out, and there were less than 30,000 people left in Jiangdong, this time, he was transferred 20,000 by Zhuge Liang, and now Jiangdong, anyone can raise their hands to destroy it, the situation is extremely urgent, and Sun Quan has to plan early.
This Zhuge Liang is so ruthless, even if you want to try your guts, people won't give you this opportunity. (To be continued.) )
