"Kill ——!" the initial battle was frustrated, did not affect the momentum of the Wei army, after a day of rest, Zhang He personally led the army, into the street pavilion Tucheng, an order, the Wei army in the hundreds of cowhide drums immediately sounded, tens of thousands of infantry composed of the elite of the Wei army in batches, lined up in formation, resisted the ladder, pushed the siege cloud platform, the car and the iron car, roared, screamed and charged to the street pavilion Tucheng. Around them, hundreds of sharpshooters took their bows and arrows and shot towards Tucheng, hoping to inflict heavy damage on the Shu soldiers on Tucheng.

"Capture the street pavilion, reward one pound of silver, cut off Zhuge Liang's head, and reward ten pounds of silver!"

In order to boost morale, Zhang He asked every general to shout slogans, and he must make sure that his reward was known to every Wei soldier. As a result, under the desperate shouts of generals at all levels, the Wei infantry who were overwhelmed by the bounty had red eyes and high fighting spirit, and their footsteps kept launching a life-like attack on Tucheng.

The battle soon began, and the Wei infantry followed the old siege tactics, covering the archers with chariots and iron-wrapped carts, and suppressing the defenders of the city with arrows. The Han army also defended the city with the old tactics, with giant trees hitting ladders, bows and arrows blocking the enemy, throwing rolling stones and wood ash bottles to smash people, and the battle was extremely fierce.

Chen's military talent is not obvious, not as good as Guan Yu and Zhang Feimachao, but he has solid basic skills, does his best in training the army, and rewards and punishments are fair and real, so he has a strong control over the army under him, and his prestige in the army is also very high.

In this defensive battle, he built the earthen city a few days in advance, contained the throat of the street pavilion, and gave the Wei army heavy casualties in the first battle, so his appeal in the army was very high.

Now the battle at the head of the city, his command ability has also been reflected, whether it is to point to that army, whether it is to let this army attack or retreat, the order is executed very resolutely, received the order to attack, even if the Wei army in front has climbed the city wall with a ladder, is waving a war knife at the battlement of the city wall and shouting, this army will also shout the slogan of "meritorious service", poke with a gun, cut with a knife, and beat the Wei army down the city wall.

After receiving the order to retreat, even if there is a group of enemies in front of them whose hands and feet have been cut off, just waiting to cut off the first-level meritorious service, this unit will decisively give up the low-hanging fruit and retreat decisively, so as to make room for the follow-up troops, better and more effective attack on the enemy, and suppress the momentum of the Wei army's siege.

Because of his long-term combat experience, Chen Shi can achieve clear rewards and punishments, fairness and decency, so everyone believes in him.

At this time, the bloody battle on the city wall entered the white heat, the fierce battle under the city wall was more than equal, although Zhang He was good at leading troops to raid, but after decades of military career, his siege tactics command was also reflected in an orderly manner, commanding the army to advance layer by layer, steady and steady, first with a wooden cart to advance to the city wall, the archers hid behind the cart and fired arrows to the city wall, suppressing the defenders archers, and the infantry took the opportunity to resist the city.

Under his arrangement, the siege ladders of the Wei army also continued to build the city wall, and one after another the Wei army soldiers continued to climb upward, not only striving to break the city directly, but also reducing the pressure on the wooden chariots under the city.

Because both sides fought bloody, so that many Wei soldiers were twisted by the Han army to beat the city, and the battle was full of blood and fire, with a fierce and cruel and murderous aura.

Although a large number of soldiers were killed, the Wei soldiers, who were large in number and did not fall behind in combat effectiveness, still rushed to the city several times, forgetting their lives to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Han soldiers.

And the Han soldiers trained by Chen Shi here were not to be outdone, and relied on their local advantages to fight more and fight less to kill the enemy soldiers to fill the gap.

And Ju Fu carried a big knife and led a death squad composed of elite soldiers to roam around, slashing and mending leaks, so although the Wei army attacked fiercely and paid a heavy price, it was never able to stand on the wall. The Wei soldiers under the city were even more severely killed and injured by the raindrops of wooden boulders, and the corpses of soldiers on both sides were densely covered under the earthen city.

But even so, if you look behind Chen Shi, you will find that there is a man of about 1,500 people, resting quietly in the back. His commander-in-chief was the partial general Zhang Wei. No matter how far the war was held, Chen Shi did not let them fight, and obviously stayed behind.

Seeing this kind of battle on Tucheng, several generals admonished Zhang He one after another, asking to take a step back and gather troops to attack the city again.

But Zhang He's face did not change at all, and he shouted: "Our army is several times the enemy, the advantage is in me, as long as we continue to attack the city, the enemy will definitely be exhausted, when you go all out, take the street pavilion, otherwise, the situation in Longxi cannot be solved." ”

A general said: "One drum, then decline, three and exhaustion, why don't our army use attack tactics, exhaust the Shu army, and then destroy it with one drum." ”

Zhang He said: "The battle of Jieting must be resolved quickly, once it is delayed for a long time, Zhuge Liang and Ma Chao occupy Longxi and repel Guo Huai, it will cause Chang'an to be difficult to defend, and Guanzhong will be shaken." ”

The generals were silent.

At this time, on the top of Nanshan, everyone was hiding in a well-established trench, looking at the battle under the mountain, and everyone was worried.

Wang Ping said: "Your Majesty, Zhang He is menacing, there are many generals, and our army only relies on an earthen city, how can it resist for a long time, it is better to rush down from the mountain of the Wudang Flying Army led by the minister, and it will definitely be able to break through the bamboo, and defeat the Wei army with one drum." ”

Feng Zhou's eyes narrowed, and after a cold light flashed, he smiled: "Don't worry." ”

Wang Ping didn't dare to ask again.

Wu Tong, the general of the Beiwei Army, also couldn't hold his breath and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is worried that General Chen will not be able to resist Zhang He's fierce attack. ”

"Chen's command of the army is calm, and it is not something that Zhang He can break between eagerness. ”

Zhang Wen interjected on the side: "Your Majesty, the minister is worried that General Chen will not be able to stop it." ”

Feng Zhou smiled coldly: "I can't stop it, what kind of hero is that!"

As soon as this statement came out, the generals did not dare to say it.

Feng Zhou saw that although these people didn't dare to ask again, they were all nervous in their hearts, for fear that the Chen style below would be broken by Zhang He.

He couldn't help laughing: "Zhuqing don't have to worry, since the twenty-third year of Jian'an, up to now, Chen Shi has grown into a general of Dangkou, commanding tens of thousands of troops, commanding properly, and having Tucheng as the boundary, which is enough to offset Zhang He's numerical advantage." ”

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, when will our army attack?"

Wang Ping asked respectfully.

Feng Zhou saw that he was very respectful, and immediately had a trace of "careful teaching" in his heart, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "Zhang He is a famous general of Wei State, ranking in the position of Cao Cao's foreign surname general 'Five Sons Good General', his soldiers are heroic and the best at fighting, and now they are running all the way to a long distance, and the most beneficial thing for them is to fight quickly, so I ordered Chen Shi to build a city, resist Zhang He's offensive, consume their energy, and after they are tired, our army will attack Zhang He's rear army from top to bottom, and then it will be able to succeed in a battle and break the Wei army." ”

After listening to Feng Zhou's careful analysis, the generals' eyes suddenly brightened, and they couldn't help but nod their heads.

In fact, everyone has thought of this strategic thinking, but no one has formed a complete line of thought, like Wang Ping, who was even more shocked by the offensive in front of him, blindly worried about whether Chen Shi would be able to resist Zhang He's offensive, and did not consider the art of war and tactics at all.

This is actually a bit of a "bystander fan".

At the foot of the mountain, on the Longshan Road, in the street pavilion Tucheng, Chen Shi looked around, but saw the corpses of the enemy all over the place, but the shouts of the enemy soldiers were still high, and the feather arrows shot were strong. Seeing that the enemy soldiers in the northeast corner were attacking particularly fiercely, and the defenders were gradually unable to resist, one of Chen's personal soldiers shouted: "General, the enemy in the northeast corner is attacking strongly. ”

Chen Shi shouted: "Jufu, stop them for me!"

Jufu shouted, snatched a big knife from the sergeant's hand, Hehe screamed, rushed to the northeast corner of the city wall, slashed again and again, and killed seven or eight warriors one after another, and the Wei army was shocked to see him so brave. The Han army shouted with joy and closed the gap in the northeast corner.

After fighting for a long time, Zhang He gradually became a little anxious, couldn't hold back, suddenly rushed forward, bent his bow and arrow, and suddenly shot an arrow, this arrow was like lightning, an arrow hit Chen Shi's shoulder, and then another arrow shot straight to Chen Shi's chest. Chen Shi was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder, and when he saw that another arrow had arrived, he grabbed an iron shield to block it, and the sharp arrow "dang" made an earth-shattering sound.

Zhang He's arrow was so powerful that he actually took a few steps back from Chen Shizhen, and the Han army was shocked when he saw that the commander was hit by the arrow. In the shouts of the Wei army, they rushed to the city wall like a tide.

Chen Shi's eyes were also red, the long knife in his hand slashed at the iron shield, and shouted loudly: "The general will be fine, everyone is firmly defending!" After speaking, he waved the long knife and killed three Wei soldiers who rushed to Tucheng.

Seeing that Chen Shi was becoming more and more courageous, the Wei army couldn't help but be angry and took it, and retreated to the city in defeat, and the offensive slowed down.

Zhang He returned with a horse and smiled: "I don't want Chen Shi, there is such a means of commanding troops!"

The general said: "General Right, the enemy's morale is high, do you want to retreat for the time being." ”

Zhang He said: "No, continue to attack! This Chen style has been hit by an arrow, and it can't hold out for long, and within an hour, the street pavilion will be broken!"

Although he was still magnificent, the Wei soldiers under his command had been fighting for several hours, and they were already exhausted, and the offensive had slowed down irrepressibly.

At this moment, on the top of the mountain, Feng Zhou stood up suddenly, with a spear in his hand, and said: "His momentum has declined, and the generals will obey the order!"

Wang Ping, Wu Tong, Zhang Wen and others bowed together, shouting, "The minister is here!"
