After a rain of arrows and artillery stones, the city was already in shambles, Liu Xiu ordered to enter the second step of the siege, and the attack on the gate and the city began together. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

As soon as the drum sounded, the ballista began to shoot into the distance, the stone thrower stopped attacking, and countless soldiers pushed the giant ladder towards the city wall, and at the same time, two siege engines began to approach the city gate.

Guan Yu raised his sword upside down, and fifty heavily armored soldiers were behind him, lined up in a cone-shaped attack formation, they were wearing heavy armor, and they didn't care about the scattered rain of arrows shot from the city, they just approached the city wall with their heads bored. Maintaining a rhythmic pace, using the corner of his eye to maintain formation with his companions, adjusting his breathing, waiting for the long-awaited battle to begin.

Except for the iron cavalry that they had resisted in the northern Xinjiang at the beginning of their formation, they only fought a tough battle in Xiliang, which was unforgettable for all of them, and the Jingguan piled up with the heads of the Qiang people turned them into truly fearless warriors. After that, they stung in Luoyang for several years, preparing every day for returning to the battlefield, and today, they are finally standing on the battlefield again.

The huge ladder was pushed by hundreds of soldiers, and quickly approached the city wall, and seeing that the gangplank was about to be hung on the city wall, suddenly, a row of wooden walls poured out of the city wall, and behind the wooden wall were dense crossbowmen, and the tips of the arrows illuminated by the morning sun shone like stars.

With an angry shout, hundreds of sharp arrows roared out, and the soldiers pushing the ladder were caught off guard, and were shot down, screaming everywhere, and the pace of the ladder's advancement also changed. Several thick wooden forks protruded from the top of the city, pushing against the top of the clouds, preventing it from approaching the city walls.

The soldiers pushing the ladder were in a state of confusion, they did not carry many bows and arrows, and the only dozen shields they had could not block it, so they could only shoot behind the ladder, but in this way, they could not push the ladder forward smoothly, and stopped only a dozen paces away from the city wall.

Guan Yu strode to the scene and drove away the soldiers who were hiding. Fifty heavily armored warriors quickly divided into two parts and stood on either side of the ladder, holding swords in one hand and pushing the ladder in the other. They are all tall and powerful. Although it was only one-handed, it was no weaker than those soldiers. With them joining, the giant ladder approached the walls again.

The defenders at the head of the city were shocked, and they fired intensively, but the arrows shot clusters of sparks on the heavy armor, but they could not hurt the heavy armor, and they were a little helpless for a while. I had to use the wooden fork in my hand to desperately resist the ladder, and when I saw that the strength was insufficient, many crossbowmen retreated, and a few wooden forks stretched out.

After being held up by a dozen wooden forks, even with the help of heavy armor, the giant ladder could not go further.

"Get out of the way!" Guan Yu shouted loudly, turned around and climbed the ladder, ignoring the bow and arrows shot from the city. Swinging the sword in his hand, he slashed down at the wooden forks that were on top of the ladder.

With a "click", a wooden fork was cut off. There was another sound, and another wooden fork was severed. The wooden forks with thick arms were broken like rotten wood under Guan Yu's vigorous chopping, and the soldiers at the head of the city who were holding on to it with all their strength lost their strength and rushed towards the city wall one by one, and the people in front of them were unstable and were squeezed down the city.

The city was in turmoil, but the soldiers besieging the city were demoralized, they shouted the trumpet, and pushed the ladder to the edge of the city step by step. Guan Yu looked at the distance. Fly up with a kick, kick the springboard, and the horse chopping sword in his hand slaps, and the springboard smashes down to the city with a loud noise.

"Stop him! Stop him! An officer who looked like a lieutenant at the head of the city shouted in a hurry, but the soldiers instinctively dodged around. The lieutenant was furious. The guards crowded over, and several spears were aimed at the springboard.

Guan Yu sneered, flew onto the springboard, and jumped onto the city wall in only two steps. He did not hesitate to break into the spear array, and two or three spears slashed out at his iron armor, making a piercing grinding sound and sparks flying. The spear-wielding soldier was torn apart by the force of the spearhead, and threw away the spear with a scream. Guan Yu didn't even look at it, he rounded the sword and cut it off on the head.

The spear is broken, and the man is broken.

A sword is cut down, and the one who is in charge is easy. Guan Yu twisted the horse chopping sword with his backhand, and the castrated horse chopping sword slashed half a circle, spun it back again, and slashed one more person, rushing in front of the captain. Captain Nadu was intimidated by Guan Yu's strong attack, and stood in place, his eyes wide, watching Guan Yu slash down with a sword.

"Kill!" Guan Yu roared, and the sharp horse chopping sword suddenly split the body of the lieutenant, and the blood splashed from the mutilated body, spraying the heads and faces of the people next to him, and the people who were splashed with blood screamed to get out of the way, Guan Yu took advantage of the situation to kill, and two heavy armor soldiers jumped behind him, standing beside Guan Yu on the left and right, firmly standing on the roots.

The three of them formed a small formation, and they immediately used their killer moves, slashing horses and swords like wheels, no matter whether it was a person or a shield in front of them, they all slashed and smashed, no matter whether you were slashed with a knife or a spear, as long as it was within the range of the attack, they would all be slashed down. Occasionally, spears pierced through their gaps and stabbed at their bodies, only to make their bodies shake a little, and at most they took half a step back, unable to pierce their heavy armor at all.

These defenders have never seen such an opponent, the knife can not be cut, the spear pierces, the piercing can not pierce, the bow and arrow on it is useless, according to this posture, probably only the strong crossbow can deal with, but in the eagerness, the strong crossbow has not been able to rush to the front.

Taking advantage of the fact that the defenders did not have effective countermeasures, Guan Yu stood firm at the head of the city, and the heavy armor soldiers stepped on the springboard, constantly jumped on the city wall, and expanded the formation more and more, when half of the fifty heavy armor soldiers rushed to the city head, Guan Yu roared, the formation suddenly changed, and the semi-circular formation became a conical formation, and the defenders who were blocked at the head of the city could not be cut into two, and then the heavy armor soldiers turned their backs to each other, and killed on both sides, and the heavy armor soldiers who caught up behind squeezed into the gap between them, forming another horizontal formation. Like waves, they took turns advancing, attacking wave after wave, forcing the guards to retreat step by step.

When all the heavy armor soldiers rushed to the city, Guan Yu no longer loved to fight, and took thirty heavy armor soldiers down the passage to the city, and they formed a group, like a rolling sword ball, until they reached the city gate. Slaughtered all the defenders guarding the gates and opened the gates.

As soon as the city gate opened, Hua Xiong, who had been waiting outside the city for a long time, cheered and rushed in with a large army.

New Tsai changed hands.

Guan Yu took the heavy armor soldier, took off his helmet and held it under his intestines, and his face was covered with sweat. It was the height of summer, they were wearing heavy armor, and they had to wear thick wool clothes under the heavy armor, and they were sweating when they sat still, not to mention that they had to dance and fight with the enemy, which was replaced by ordinary people. I'm afraid that I will collapse after taking two steps, even if they are well-trained and fight for half an hour, they are a little out of strength. However, the first battle was won. They were the first to break through the city, and now they were full of energy, and this little tiredness was not a problem at all, and one by one they held their heads high and their spirits were high, and they walked past their comrades in the attitude of victors, and strode to the command vehicle of the Chinese army.

Guan Yu held the helmet in his left hand. Holding the sword in his right hand, he bowed his head and saluted: "Report to the general, Xincai has been broken!" ”

Liu Xiu got up, looked at the strongest soldier of this era with satisfaction, and said in a deep voice: "All the gentlemen have worked hard! ”

"Serve the general, don't work hard!" The heavy armor soldiers shouted in unison, although there were only fifty of them, the neat roar made people have the momentum of thousands of troops in their lives.

"Reward. Two catties of meat per person, one bucket of wine, and 10,000 yuan. ”

Heavy armor is overjoyed. The voice was louder: "General Xie." ”

Liu Xiu waved his hand: "Go and rest." Ah He, take a few people to see your Uncle Guan. ”

"Ugh." Liu He responded vividly and stepped off the command car. Guan Yu was shocked and hurriedly excused himself, Liu Xiu waved his hand, signaling him not to refuse. Guan Yu was flattered, and proudly went to the rear to rest accompanied by Liu He. When he arrived at the back, Guan Yu asked Liu He while being helped by someone to disarm him: "Master Weng, why are you crying?" ”

Liu He wiped his tears embarrassedly. After talking about what happened just now, Guan Yu listened to it and nodded again and again: "Your father is right, the Chu Wangfu can have today, but it didn't fall from the sky." At the beginning, in Sunset Plain, in order to kill the sandalwood locust. To relieve the border troubles in the northern frontier, the general and Tanshi Huai personally fought and killed, that Tanshi Huai was really fierce, and was speared through the chest by the general, and injured the general with a palm. The general was in a coma for three days. Alas, blame me too, I went too late. ”

The heavy armor soldiers took off their clothes, and the single clothes on their bodies were all soaked, sticking to their bodies, revealing their strong muscles, sweat steaming up, and the whole tent was filled with a strong smell of sweat. Originally, they were going to take off their essence, take a shower with water, and then change into clean clothes, but Liu He was here, they were not so presumptuous, so they had to wear wet clothes and look at Guan Yu with blank eyes.

Guan Yu understood, and said a few words in Liu He's ear, Liu He blushed and withdrew. Only then did the heavy armor soldiers breathe a sigh of relief and laugh uncontrollably. They all grew up watching Liu He, but Liu He was a noble lord after all, and when she stopped here, these heavy armor soldiers were even more nervous than wearing heavy armor.

"The body of the lord of Weng's daughter, who does not avoid hard work, comes to visit us, this is the general's weight to us. Don't be arrogant, train hard in the future, and make new contributions to the general and the lord. ”

"Whoa!" The heavy armor soldiers straightened up and clenched their fists in response.

Hundreds of wounded soldiers are being treated, some have been wounded by arrows, some have been smashed by rolling stones and wood, some have been injured during white-knuckle warfare, and so on, those who have been lightly injured only need to be bandaged, while those who are seriously injured are very troublesome, some have broken legs, some have broken hands, some have broken heads, some have broken waists, lying on stretchers, they can't even move, they can only howl miserably.

Liu He looked at all this in front of him, listening to the moans in his ears, smelling the pungent smell of blood, and he was terrified, but he couldn't help but look at it. She saw that Lan Lan and a few Taoist priests were healing the wounded, the white Taoist robe was already stained with blood, but she turned a blind eye, cleaning the wounds with her hands and feet, and after each treatment, she would recite a few incantations to comfort the wounded. One seemed to be too badly wounded, and her comfort did little to help, and the wounded continued to wail.

Liu He looked at it for a moment, plucked up the courage and walked over: "Aunt Lan, I'll come." ”

Lan Lan glanced at her in surprise, "Master Weng, why did you come here?" Hurry up, it's not clean here, it's easy to get sick. ”

Liu He shook his head, squatted down in front of the wounded, clasped his hands together, and recited the peace mantra of blessing. The wounded man also recognized Liu He, looking at her pale little face, he gritted his teeth and stopped shouting pain, for fear of frightening the lord Weng, seeing Liu He praying for him, he was so excited that he said in a trembling voice: "Weng ...... Lord, I'm ...... How can I afford it. ”

"You are a true warrior, and your credit for today will always be remembered in my heart, so hurry up and get better."

"Alas, alas!" The wounded man nodded again and again, inexplicably grateful. "Please rest assured, I will definitely make meritorious contributions."
