Chapter 359: Yecheng (4)

The judge on the city wall knew that he should not have such an idea, so he rushed out of the city rashly, there was absolutely no difference between it and sending him to death.

But did he really do nothing, let Cao Jun's trebuchet be so arrogant, the trial was confused, he was smart and obviously realized that the war had entered a stalemate, Cao Jun's powerful weapons hit himself a little stunned, I was afraid that it would be difficult to come back to his senses for a while, staring at the trebuchet outside the city, the trial fell into contemplation.

Back in the camp, Du Chen was obviously quite happy, today's battle proved that Cao Jun's trebuchet was really powerful, and the incendiary bomb he invented was obviously infinitely powerful, and Yuan Jun obviously had no way to take Cao Jun.

In the next few days, Du Chen decided to use trebuchets to suppress Yuan Jun, who couldn't raise his head, Yecheng was not something that could be conquered by brute force, Du Chen wanted to make the Yuan soldiers physically and mentally exhausted, first use the trebuchet to throw him for a few days, and then let the Cao soldiers attack,

Use boulders and incendiary bombs to suppress the Yuan army for a period of time, and when the Cao army really attacks, the combat effectiveness of the Yuan army will definitely drop a lot.

The next day, Cao Jun's trebuchet unfolded again, and one after another trebuchet faced the rising sun, showing a little brilliance.

Seeing Cao Jun's trebuchets one after another, Yuan Jun on the wall of Yecheng was somewhat afraid, thinking back to the boulders one after another, the incendiary bombs one after another, the soldiers of Yuan Jun felt that they were waiting for the trial again,

Although the sun is in full bloom now, the soldiers of Yuan Jun do not feel the slightest warmth, and a trace of cold slowly spreads from the soles of their feet to their whole bodies.

Outside Yecheng City, Cao Jun's trebuchet phalanx was busy. Before today's expedition, Lord Taiwei personally issued an order that the amount of stones thrown today should be doubled compared to yesterday, which is a rather difficult task, but if you are not well prepared, your army is likely to be punished by Lord Taiwei.

The sound of the operation of the trebuchet under the city made Yuan Jun on the city wall very penetrating. And a sound of release made all the soldiers of the Yuan army tremble,

The loud bang seemed to hit the hearts of the generals of the Yuan army, and the screams obviously stimulated all the soldiers of the Yuan army even more, they wanted to run away and escape from this formidable city wall, but the Yuan army under the city sharpened their knives, as long as someone dared to escape, it would be met with a merciless fight,

Looking at the soldiers of the Yuan army who couldn't raise their heads and were suppressed by Cao Jun's trebuchets on the city wall. The trial really had the intention to remove all the soldiers from the city wall, but this can only be thought about, this is done, I am afraid that it will not take a few hours, and the Cao army will occupy the entire city wall of Yecheng.

But if you don't withdraw, the soldiers on the city wall can only bury their lives in vain, and there is no way to judge the catapults outside the city. The trial also wanted to use the catapult to repay the other in his own way, but Yuan Jun's catapult obviously did not have Cao Jun's sharpness.

The range is not as good as that of an archer's trebuchet, like scrap wood, it has no effect at all, and it is better to count on those things than to storm them.

Cao Jun's catapult worked for several hours, which made all the Cao soldiers in charge of the catapult feel physically and mentally exhausted. However, it is reassuring that today's attack is obviously very effective, and the Yuan army on the city wall is no match at all.

The matter of storming the catapult phalanx of Cao Jun has been put on the agenda by Yuan Shang, and Cao Jun's attack is very rampant, if Cao Jun is not stopped. Then no one dares to climb the city wall to defend the city anymore, if you don't climb the city wall, you will be killed by the soldiers under the city, and the soldiers of the Yuan army don't want to be stoned to death by the Cao army, at least not so painful,

It's only two days, Cao Jun's catapult has forced Yuan Jun to a dead end, if you don't want to find a way, I'm afraid that the city will be broken in these days, even if Cao Jun's soldiers did not attack the city, the Yuan soldiers on the city wall will turn against each other, after all, there are now many soldiers who think that Yuan Shang's approach is to force them to die,

No wonder there are soldiers who think like this, after all, they are only composed of private soldiers of major clans, naturally they will not do things for Yuan Shang wholeheartedly, Yuan Shang forced himself to die, at first they really did not dare to offend Yuan Shang, only to accept their fate, but they are not fools, how can they never resist.

Yuan's army is composed of these private soldiers, if even they rise up to rebel, then they are not as painful as surrendering on the same day.

Even if it is to send troops to fight, it is also necessary to send a general who can calm the scene in the hospital, Yuan Shao's command was full of talents back then, but now Yuan Shang obviously does not have so many talents available, Yan Liangwen and Han Meng were all killed by Cao Jun, and Gao Gan surrendered to Cao Jun, which made Yuan Shang helpless, go there to find the general,

If there is a general who can control the situation, he can make the soldiers fight to the death, Yuan Shang couldn't think of it, so he could only turn his head and ask the trial around him.

The trial is obviously a headache for this matter, at the beginning, there were countless generals in Hebei, and they could be entrusted with important tasks by picking one or two at random, but now, it is different, those people are dying, surrendering and surrendering, how can Yuan Jun have any capable generals,

But at this moment, the judge suddenly had an idea, he stepped forward, came to Yuan Shang's side and said, "Lord, I want someone to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility." ”

Hearing this, Yuan Shang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "Sir, tell me quickly, who can entrust Shang with the important task of defeating Cao Jun's catapult?" ”

"This person's name is Han Qiong, his uncle Han Rong is known as the 'Hebei Gun King', Han Qiong is not only Han Rong's nephew, but also Han Rong's personal descendant, this person has Han Rong's true inheritance, strong martial arts, and can be a general." Review the amount of money and talk.

Yuan Shang nodded with satisfaction, and didn't say anything else, just the name of "Hebei Gun King" can fool many people, although he is only the apprentice of "Hebei Gun King", but there should be some real talent and real learning.

Yuan Shang nodded, and then handed over the matter to the judge, and asked him to do his best to handle the matter, and the judge obviously did not live up to Yuan Shang's trust, and only one night later, Han Qiong appeared in front of Yuan Shang's eyes,

Han Qiong in front of him was magnificent, looking quite powerful, he was holding a dark iron gun in his hand, and on the head of the gun, there was a faint cold light.

The more Yuan Shang looked at it, the more satisfied he became, it seemed that the trial was not deceiving, just by looking at it, he could feel that this person had some ability.

"Do you still want you to lead 5,000 troops to attack the Cao army's catapult camp, and then burn down those catapults that are in the way, do you have the confidence to complete it?" Yuan Shang squinted his eyes and asked, since he believed that this person had the ability, Yuan Shang's words were obviously very direct,

Han Qiong nodded, "Please also rest assured that the general will have the confidence to defeat the Cao army with one blow." Han Qiong's tone was obviously quite proud, but now he does have the capital to be proud.

If it was in the past, Han Qiong might not dare to do this, but at that time, Yuan Jun was full of talents, even his uncle "Hebei Gun King" Han Rong did not act arrogantly, but now, Yuan Jun has fallen, and there are obviously not many people who are more capable than himself at this moment.

Han Qiong's self-confidence made Yuan Shang very satisfied, he looked at Han Qiong again, and then ordered: "Since this is the case, Shang will make you the general of the chariot cavalry, lead 5,000 troops, and go out of the city to meet the battle." ”

Hearing Yuan Shang's reward for himself, Han Qiong's eyes suddenly showed a fine light, the chariot cavalry general had a prominent status, he was second only to the great general and the hussar general,

Seeing Han Qiong's happy face, the judge said coldly on the side: "Don't be too happy, if you succeed in burning Cao Jun's catapult, there will be a generous reward on the day of the general's triumph, but if the general doesn't defeat Cao Jun's catapult, then don't blame him for being ruthless." ”

Hearing the words of the trial, Han Qiong suddenly shuddered, the words of the trial made Han Qiong's mood drop to the bottom, according to the meaning of the trial, unless he really conquered the Cao army's array and burned Cao Jun's catapult, Yuan Jun could open the city gate and let himself in,

However, if he did not complete the task, even if he was surrounded by Cao's army, the Yuan army in the city would not send reinforcements to relieve the siege for him, so as long as he left the city, he would either return victorious or die on the battlefield.

At this moment, Han Qiong obviously regretted a little, regretting that she had agreed so quickly, but now that she said anything, it was over, and she had no way back.

Han Qiong lowered his head and thought for a while, and then he made a decision in his heart, as the so-called wealth and danger are sought, if he succeeds by luck and burns Cao Jun's catapult, then he will definitely be a great achievement, and when the time comes, he will be able to be above 10,000 people under one person, and be admired by the people of Yecheng,

And defeated, the big deal is death, and, even if he is really defeated, the big deal is to surrender, everyone in the Cao army does their best This is known to the world, as long as he has the ability, Cao Cao will break the rules and carry it, and there are obviously not a few generals in the Cao army who have been entrusted with important tasks, Han Qiong does not believe that with his own talents, he may not be able to develop in the Cao army,

"Don't worry, my lord, I will swear to complete the task." Han Qiong said loudly, and at this moment, the judge finally nodded with satisfaction, only by seeing death in his heart as if he were at home, could it be possible to break through the heavy encirclement of Cao Jun and destroy Cao Jun's trebuchet,

In order to successfully destroy the catapult of the Cao army, these five thousand people are definitely carefully selected, not to mention anything else, the combat effectiveness of these five thousand people is definitely the strongest among the entire Yecheng Yuan army, and only in this way can it be possible to complete this arduous task,

Of course, in addition to the fact that the soldiers were very strong, Yuan Shang gave these soldiers the strongest iron armor in the entire Yecheng, and there was not much iron armor in the entire Yecheng, but in order to successfully eliminate the threat of the Yuan army, Yuan Shang obviously used his blood.
