Chapter 22: Bao Kai
At the same time, a strange thing happened under the city walls. As if they hadn't heard the sound of gold, those elite soldiers in Xuzhou roared angrily and killed the Yellow Turbans, taking the somewhat relaxed Yellow Turban Army by surprise.
"Huh?" Tao Qian obviously saw this strange situation. "Retreat?" Du Chen looked at the soldiers below, and immediately understood, just like he said, "Retreat?" Where to retreat? "One after another, Xuzhou soldiers are consuming their lives on this battlefield like a meat grinder. Fang Yue looked depressed, and after killing a few yellow scarves, he glanced in Zhang Yan's direction, and went straight to Zhang Yan.
"Humph!" Zhang Yan in the distance snorted coldly. "General, be careful!" Bystanders roared. Fang Yue looked at the sky, his eyes suddenly shrank, and a burst of yellow scarves roared like heavy rain. Just when he was in a hurry, he was suddenly knocked down, and then he felt the person on his back tremble. Du Chen's hand slammed on the boulder of the city wall, looking at the misery below, the drumstick in his hand fell quietly. Seeing that there was no movement, Fang Yue slowly got up, looking at the few Xuzhou elite soldiers who were blocking the arrows for him, his eyes were hot, and he suddenly became a little moist.
"General ......" One of the Xuzhou soldiers had not yet swallowed his breath, and stretched out his hand to Fang Yue with difficulty, "One ...... Must, must...... Keep...... Xuzhou ...... There's my ...... There is my wife......" Before he finished speaking, the Xuzhou soldier's hand sank and he lost his breath. "Roar!" Fang Yue held the hand of the Xuzhou soldier and roared loudly in pain, although he was from Hanoi, he was here, training with these soldiers, drinking together, and being punished together, like brothers, and now ...... He stood up suddenly, held a big knife in his hand, looked in Zhang Yan's direction and yelled, "Zhang Zi'an! I don't share the sky with you! โ
There are a total of seven trenches, and now five have been filled, Zhang Yanzheng is waving his army to come, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "I've heard a lot of this!" Most of the Xuzhou troops in the last two trenches were archers and crossbowmen, which were of little use to the white blade, Fang Yue was furious, but his mind was not lost, and he waved his hand and said, "Withdraw!" The more than 1,000 Xuzhou elite soldiers glanced at those compatriots who died in battle, and their hearts were ruthless, and they came out of the trenches. The gate of Xuzhou City has been open for half an hour now, and it has not been used until now. Du Chen looked at the bottom with a dull face, and couldn't say what the expression was, but looking at his expression, Tao Qian never dared to approach.
Fang Yue and a thousand archers retreated into Xuzhou City, and the south gate of Xuzhou City was suddenly closed and the suspension bridge was pulled. Zhang Yan checked his losses, and was shocked at this look, his Yellow Turban elite actually killed 1,800 people? Excluding the 1,000 or so unarmed yellow scarves, there are still 800 people! So how can Xuzhou soldiers exchange one for one? This is something that has never happened before! However, the road to Xuzhou was finally cleared, Zhang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he still had more than 10,000 people, and the south gate of Xuzhou was obviously insufficient, and the other three gates were even more so, and the city of Xuzhou was just around the corner!
Looking at the Xuzhou soldiers who retreated into Xuzhou with their heads drooping, Du Chen got off the city wall, saluted them, and then said sharply, "Our army is not defeated, why are you acting like this?!" Those Xuzhou soldiers raised their heads and looked straight at Du Chen. Now...... We are no longer fighting for Xuzhou, fighting for the people, fighting for our loved ones! What's more! Fight for the many people who have died! Do you want them to be blind under the Nine Springs? โ
"Swear to defend Xuzhou to the death!" "Swear to defend Xuzhou to the death!" The shouts shook the sky and the momentum was high, which made Zhang Yan outside the city extremely puzzled. Although it was not defeated, Du Chen's heart was very uncomfortable, a thousand Xuzhou elite soldiers! That's a thousand living people! It's less than an hour...... It turns out that this is war!
"Husband......" Qin Xi posted up, gently hugged Du Chen and said, "Husband, don't be anxious, now that the soldiers are united, the yellow scarf can't help Xuzhou." "That's Zhang Yan! Du Chen thought with a frown. "You...... Aren't you afraid? Qin Xi looked at Du Chen strangely, "Why are you afraid?" โ
Qin Xi smiled and said softly, "The concubine believes that her husband can protect Qin Xi and all the people of Xuzhou......" "Qin Xi ......" Du Chen muttered, this feeling of trust is really good...... Qin Xi sat on Du Chen's lap and leaned into Du Chen's ear and said, "The concubine said that the concubine will always believe in her husband and support her husband." โ
"You say that I am under a lot ......of pressure, besides, I am not a living Buddha Jigong, he is the reincarnation of the dragon Arhat, with the fat and thin fairy and the fox spirit and the rabbit spirit to help him, no matter how big the difficulty is, it can be solved. Alas, that's what I said, but well, for Qin Xi, no matter how much pressure there is, you have to overcome it! "So the concubine is relieved...... Qin Xi walked away gently, "I'll go and prepare a meal for my husband." Du Chen nodded, smiling and watching Qin Xi leave. As soon as Qin Xi walked out of Du Chen's sight, Du Chen's smile was put away, and he began to ponder how to come up with the most effective way in such a situation.
There is a moat under the city of Xuzhou, and the yellow turban is difficult to approach...... Moat? Du Chen's eyes lit up, and then they dimmed again, "This can only block one or two times, and treat the symptoms but not the root cause." "In ancient times, to storm the city tower was generally to use a ladder and a well, the former was an infantry attack, and the latter was an archer crossbowman to attack, but the well tower was not easy to make, and it was a waste of time, so that is to say, Zhang Yan was the most likely to use a ladder. When the infantry attackes, there will definitely be archers to cooperate, and the Yellow Turban Army has many archers, like a waterfall rain, which is really difficult to prevent.
Even if all the soldiers in Xuzhou use bows and crossbows now, there are only about 10,000, facing more than 15,000 enemies...... That's not good with bows and arrows! It's too slow! Arrows, bow pulling, aiming, and then shooting, it takes about five seconds at the earliest, how to suppress the yellow turbans that live in the siege? But if it can't be suppressed, then those fanatical Yellow Turbans will continue to attack the city walls, like those damned zombies, and rush into the gamer's house, in that case, the consequences will be unimaginable! Depend on! If only I had a few Heavy in Plants vs. Zombies now, why bother? Keep you to one and die the other! Heavy ?!
Damn, how did I think of Plants vs. Zombies, now it's a war, not a zombie. Plants vs. Zombies? Heavy? By the way, is this shรฌ similar to Plants vs. Zombies now? When I used to play, the last wave, the night mode, I used ruined miรจ mushrooms + coffee beans, go and go, well, day mode, I used machine gunner + dual launcher + fire dragon pile? I'll go, there's no dragon stake here! Dual launchers? Heavy? Du Chen seemed to have caught something. He carefully recalled the battle just now, his eyes lit up, and he stroked his palm and said, "Three shots!" โ
"Huh?" Qin Xi poked her head out of the kitchen and looked at Du Chen, and said strangely, "Husband? "It's okay, it's okay!" Du Chen looked at Qin Xi with a smile on his face, "You continue to ......" "Oh......" Qin Xi blinked and continued to cook in confusion. "That's right! Two thousand people face an enemy of five or six thousand or more, and only with three shots can there be a suppressive effect, well, then let the archers carry out two shots, and the crossbowmen are too slow to reload, and three shots, which should effectively suppress the yellow turbans. It's even okay...... I can also leave a thousand as reserves, a thousand as auxiliaries, and a thousand crossbowmen...... Well! Du Chen nodded. Also, dealing with the yellow scarves on the ladder, the like is good, but it consumes too many resources, and the soldiers are too laborious to transport, what to replace?
Boiling oil?! Boiling oil is good! Not only can it burn the other party, but it can also be used further, but the weather is cold, and the boiling oil is easy to condense. Alas, let's use it first, if there were springs, I would be able to make simple ballistas and catapults based on the principles of corn cannons and watermelon pitchers, and the storage would be better than in the Three Kingdoms period...... Good...... That's right! During the Three Kingdoms period, there were ballistas and catapults! What did they use instead of springs? Rubber? Certainly not...... Sinews? Sinews! The tendon of the animal! But it seems that even if it is made, it will be very useful...... Du Chen's excited heart suddenly turned cold again, alas, how can he effectively injure the yellow scarf? The hateful yellow turbans actually came to attack the city in the winter, there is something wrong with you! Ah, cute and dashing brother, let's come back out of the rivers and lakes! Draw a circle and curse those damn Yellow Turban thieves all frozen to death!
