Chapter Sixty-Seven: Divine Might
Zhang Lang shot the officers on the high platform with an arrow, and the morale of his own army was greatly boosted, while the soldiers of Yuan Shaojun were greatly shocked! You know, there are nearly two hundred steps between the two, it is simple to shoot from the high platform to the city, but it is even more difficult to shoot from the city to the high platform, Zhang Lang can not only shoot, but also shoot so accurately, how not shocking!
Zhang Lang shot eighteen arrows in a row, and the arrows hit the target, and eighteen officers and standard-bearers of Yuan Shaojun's army were killed! Yuan Shaojun, who was originally a little rampant, felt frightened and shrank down one after another, for fear that the next target would be his turn!
Yuan Shao, who was standing under the rear marshal, couldn't help but exclaim: "People say, 'Lu Bu among people, red rabbit among horses', and it really lives up to its reputation!" ”
"Shoot the arrows! Shoot Lu Bu! Koji Yoshi, the general in charge of commanding the archers, shouted.
The banner danced, and the crossbowmen on more than a dozen high platforms fired arrows together, and the dense rain of arrows immediately covered the sky and fell towards the city!
Seeing this, the shield holders around Zhang Lang hurriedly raised their shields to protect Zhang Lang. When he landed, he heard only a crackling sound, and all the shields immediately turned into hedgehogs, and one of the shieldmen was shot to the ground by a stray arrow, and he snorted, and a soldier immediately rushed up and dragged the wounded shieldman down.
Zhang Lang pushed away the shield hand in front of him and fired six arrows at the high platform in the middle, and six more officers and flag bearers were shot down, Zhang Lang's peerless archery skills shocked everyone! There was a commotion on the high platform, the morale of the army was fluctuating, and everyone was in danger.
Xu You hurriedly said to Yuan Shao: "Lord, it's not a way to go on like this!" Hurry up and order the army to attack the city! Otherwise, once the morale is taken away, it will be difficult to attack the city again! ”
Yuan Shao's heart was shocked, and he immediately ordered the whole army to attack the city.
The drums of war rumbled, more than 100,000 troops poured into the city wall like a tide and lined up in a battle formation, the infantry held countless siege equipment in front, and 60,000 iron cavalry pressed the formation under the leadership of Yan Liangwen and Chou's two fierce generals to prevent the other party from going out of the city to assault!
There was a brief silence on the battlefield, and then the drums of the Yuan army sounded loudly again, even more rapidly and magnificently than just now.
The infantry shouted violently, pushing ladders, ramming cars, flying hugs and other various siege equipment towards the city wall! The shield bearer holding the tower shield holds the shield to protect the siege troops, and each team has a well-founded action and clear flags, and it is obvious that they are all elite divisions that have been trained for a long time!
Arrows rained down on the walls, crackling against the opponent's shields, and many soldiers were shot to the ground. At the same time, the archers of the Yuan army on the high platform also began to shoot, and the rain of arrows continued to fall on the city, and Zhang Lang's army suffered heavy losses!
Bang bang ......! The city cart began to ram the gates. Behind the city gate, hundreds of soldiers were crowded desperately against the heavy city gate, and every collision of the other party would make their bodies shake, and at this moment, behind them, there were thousands of infantry soldiers armed with swords, guns and crossbows.
Above the city gate, several soldiers poured several large barrels of fire oil into a special funnel, in an instant, the fire oil poured the whole city car in the door hole, and then a soldier threw a torch from the funnel, the torch fell on the roof of the city car, jumped, the fire burst out, in an instant, the flame spread rapidly, the entire city car burned, several soldiers who were drenched with fire oil were also ignited, screaming and running out of the city gate hole.
The soldiers hurriedly threw down the burning rush cart, ran out of the city gate, grabbed the chain tied to the rear of the city car, and struggled to drag the blazing city cart out of the city gate.
On the other side, countless Yuan Shaojun rushed towards the city along the ladder and flying hugs, looking from a distance, it seemed as if countless ants were climbing along the wall! The wood and stones fell like raindrops, and the huge impact sound was endless, and Yuan Shaojun's soldiers were constantly smashed down! Bang, a cloud ladder suddenly broke off from it, and the soldiers of Yuan Shaojun on the cloud ladder fell down like a string of gourds!
Yuan Shaojun's siege troops suffered heavy losses, but due to the constant shooting of archers on the high platform, the defenders not only suffered heavy losses, but also could not exert their full combat strength! Finally, a city was broken through, Yuan Shao's army swarmed in, and Zhang Lang's army also rushed up and vowed to plug the gap, and a bloody battle broke out between the two sides on the city!
Zhang Langjun is very brave, all of them are not afraid of death, wielding spears and knives to fight desperately! A soldier was pierced in the chest with a spear by his opponent, but with his last breath he cut off his opponent's head, and his opponent fell to the wall, while the soldier spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the wall; On the other side, a seriously injured soldier actually rushed towards an officer of Yuan Shaojun who had just climbed the wall, and the officer was taken aback, and before he could react, he was pounced on by the other party, and both fell to death under the city wall!
Compared with Zhang Langjun's bravery, Yuan Shaojun is also very crazy, after all, in this case, if you don't fight hard, you will only die faster!
Yuan Shaojun broke through more and more gaps, and the rain of arrows falling from the high platform gradually thinned out. Looking at the city, almost all you see is the scene of a bloody battle!
Zhang Lang found Ma Teng with Fang Tian's halberd and grabbed Ma Teng's clothes, "You defend the city for me!" Then he ran under the walls.
Ma Teng was stunned and hurriedly ran to the wall, "General, what are you going to do?" ”
At this moment, the battlefield was noisy, and Zhang Lang didn't hear Ma Teng's shouts at all.
Zhang Lang came to the city gate with 3,000 cavalry, and the thousands of soldiers guarding the city gate got out of the way. Zhang Lang shouted, "Open the city gates!" The hundreds of sergeants who were desperately pushing the city gate did not hesitate at all, and immediately pushed the huge latch up.
The city gate was wide open, and the soldiers of Yuan Shaojun who were rushing into the city gate couldn't help but be stunned. Immediately, I saw that Lu Bu carrying Fang Tian's painting halberd and riding a red rabbit horse, and rushed out with thousands of fierce horses like a fierce god! They couldn't help but be frightened, and hurriedly turned and fled, but before they could run a few steps, they were overwhelmed by the surging iron horses!
Zhang Lang led three thousand cavalry to rush out of the city gate, rushing forward among Yuan Shaojun's thousands of troops and horses, and disrupted Yuan Shaojun's formation for a while!
Yuan Shao's infantry scattered to both sides, and Yan Liangshuai's 30,000 iron horsemen greeted him.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides rushed together and fought fiercely.
Zhang Lang's army of 3,000 horsemen rushed desperately with the determination to die, in the midst of the enemy's heavy encirclement, there was no fear, long knives slashed, spears stabbed, roared straight into the sky, all like tigers, killing the enemy on their backs! However, there are too many enemy troops, as if they are inexhaustible, killing a batch and a batch, parrying the left, and the enemy on the right surging up, although these soldiers are extremely brave, but after all, the tigers can't stand the wolves, and the blood-stained battlefield one by one!
Zhang Lang was like a mad tiger rushing through the enemy's army, and the Fang Tian Painted Halberd in his hand was like a death scythe harvesting the enemy's life, and there was no one in the place he passed! Every time that red figure appeared, it always made the enemy soldiers tremble!
Yan Liang brandished a big knife to meet Zhang Lang, and the two fought in the midst of thousands of troops! Zhang Lang roared like thunder, every swing of Fang Tian's halberd was as powerful as a thousand pounds, and every time Yan Liang parried, he felt as if Mount Tai was pressing on the top, and he couldn't stop trembling!
