The tide of the Black Mountain Army howled and rushed towards the Handan city wall, and the Yu Lin Wei in the city buckled the machine spring of the strong crossbow in his hand and shot a puff of arrows at the Black Mountain Army.

Feathered arrows flew over the heads and sides of many of the Black Mountain Army, knocking their companions to the ground with the sound of the wind.

Patches of the Montenegrin army fell, and more Montenegrin troops rushed forward one after another.

The Montenegrin army, which was the first to rush to the foot of the city wall, raised the ladder high, set it on the city wall, and climbed along the ladder towards the city wall with a blade in hand.

"Oil!" As soon as the Montenegrin army put the cloud ladder on the city wall, Guan Hai, who was standing on the city wall with a big knife in his hand, shouted to the Yulin guards beside him.

There are many pots and stoves on the city wall, and there is a pot of boiling oil boiling on the stove, and the hot oil is heated by the flame at the bottom of the pot, churning with oil splashes, making a "gurgling" sound......

As soon as Guan Hai's shout fell, a group of Yu Linwei had already run to the oil pot, wrapped the ears on both sides of the oil pot with sackcloth, and ran back to the battlements with the oil pot.

A cauldron full of boiling oil was placed on the battlements, and as Yu Linwei tilted the cauldron forward slightly, the hot oil juice poured down and poured down towards the Black Mountain Army who were climbing along the ladder.

The boiling oil is not only hundreds of degrees, but when it burns on a person's body, it will not even cause a blister, and it will directly peel off the skin in pieces.

The Black Mountain Army, which was climbing towards the head of the city, was poured on their bodies by boiling oil, and one by one they howled miserably and fell down the ladder, and soon there were countless half-cooked corpses at the foot of the city wall.

Under the ladder, the Black Mountain Army, which was clustered together, waiting to climb the ladder, was also splashed with boiling oil all over their faces, and the city suddenly howled miserably, and countless Black Mountain troops covered their scalded faces and fell to the ground.

At the foot of the city wall, the Montenegrin army who tried to climb the city wall along the ladder was suffering the splash of boiling oil, and a group of Montenegrin troops carrying battering rams came straight to the city gate.

"Bump!" This group of Montenegrin troops rushed to the city gate, and with the order of the Montenegrin general who led them, more than 100 Montenegrin troops carrying stout battering rams shouted trumpets and slammed the battering rams towards the city gate.

Under the powerful impact of the battering ram, the city gate let out a loud roar, and with each impact of the Black Mountain Army, it trembled violently.

Inside the city gate, the Jizhou army, which had long been ready to meet the battle, held short spears and square shields one by one, looking at the city gate that was trembling under the impact of the Montenegrin army. From the face of every Jizhou army, you can see the deep nervousness.

"Fuel!" At the city gate, a group of Black Mountain troops were slamming the city gate with a battering ram, and Zhao Yun at the head of the city held a long sword and shouted.

Several Yu Linwei carried the oil pot and went straight to the top of the city gate, pouring a pot of boiling oil down.

As the boiling oil fell, there was a wail at the city gate, and the Montenegrin army carrying the battering ram fell to the ground one after another, and the battering ram that was picked up by them and hit the city gate also fell at the city gate.

The Black Mountain Army, which was directly poured with boiling oil, had its skin burned off as a whole, and even the muscles on its bodies were scalded into pieces of white cooked meat, and these people didn't even have time to let out a miserable howl, they fell to the ground and cut off their breath.

Although the Montenegrin Army, who were standing a little different, was not scalded to death on the spot, the boiling oil splashed on them also uncovered their skin in pieces, causing these people to roll on the ground one by one screaming.

As they tumbled, the scalded flesh soon covered with a thick layer of dirt. The struggles of these people did not allow them to escape the fate of death in the end, although they were not burned to death on the spot, but they only suffered a lot more than those Montenegrin soldiers who died on the spot.

"Rocket!" Standing in the Chinese army, watching the battlefield from a distance, seeing that the attack at the city gate was unfavorable, Zhang Yan waved his hand and shouted.

"Archer!" Before Zhang Yan's shout fell, a Montenegrin general shouted: "Take a rocket and launch it at the city gate!" ”

"Coax!" Countless archers of the Montenegrin Army who were watching the battlefield in the Chinese army received the order, shouted in unison, and ran towards Handan City in a chaotic manner like a tide.

The Yulin guard on the city wall was fighting with all his might against the Black Mountain Army who were climbing the ladder, and the archers' charge did not meet with much resistance.

When the arrows could reach the city gate, the archers of the Montenegrin Army put the arrows wrapped in oilcloth on the bowstring, lit the oil cloth, and aimed at the Handan city gate.

"Shoot the arrows!" When the archers had set up their arrows, the Montenegrin generals who gave the order shouted.

With his shout, all the archers of the Black Mountain Army let go of the hands holding the bowstring, and the bowstrings burst out, and the burning arrows flew towards the Handan City Gate like meteors in the sky.

The arrows landed at the gates of the city and fell on the oil that was all over the ground, and in an instant the oil ignited on the ground.

The oil poured on the top of the city was connected under the city, and the rocket ignited the oil, and the boiling oil that fell under the city burned into a piece in an instant, forming a thick wall of fire under the city of Handan.

The flames burst up, and many of the Black Mountain troops standing on the oil couldn't dodge, and were burned by the flames, but in the blink of an eye, they disappeared in a sea of fire, and became a burning man with flames burning all over their bodies.

The Black Mountain Army, which was burned to the ground, rushed out of the flames with a miserable howl, fell to the ground, and kept rolling and wailing, but they did not roll for long, the flames ignited by the oil, the flames would penetrate deep into the skin, and it was only a moment, these people stopped rolling and howling, and became a charred corpse burning with flames outside Handan City.

The fire was raging, and the Black Mountain Army on the side of the city wall retreated, while the Yulin Guard on the city took out the crossbow arrows again and continued to fire arrows at the city.

With the sound of the crossbow bolt spring collapsing, one arrow after another flew towards the Black Mountain Army under the city.

Because there were too many Montenegrin troops under the city, they were closely surrounded by each other, and the Yulin guards on the city wall did not even need to aim, and every time they fired a crossbow arrow, one Montenegrin army would fall to the ground and die.

"Retreat!" There was a raging fire burning outside the city wall, and it would be impossible to continue the siege for a while, so in order to avoid more casualties, Zhang Yan waved his hand and gave the order to retreat.

Clustered under the city, suffering from arrows, morale gradually declined, and the Montenegrin army, which was about to collapse, got the order to retreat, where would there be a little delay, and they all turned around and ran towards the Chinese army.

They turned around and ran, but they completely exposed their backs to the Yulin guards at the head of the city. After all, the people's legs couldn't outrun the arrows, and as a puff of arrows flew down, one by one the Black Mountain soldiers were pierced by the arrows in their backs and fell to the ground with their heels.

Under the walls of Handan City, the flames were one after another, almost jumping to half the height of the city wall. The corpses at the foot of the city, wrapped in flames, had long since been burned into human form.

A little farther away from the city walls, there were Montenegrin troops who had fallen to the ground with arrows stuck in their bodies.

The corpses were next to each other, and the open space outside the city was almost empty of places for people to put their feet.

The city gates were scorched by a raging fire, and although the wooden gates were thick, they could not withstand the flames, and they soon burst into flames.

The Jizhou army in the city kept taking cold water and splashing it towards the city gate. Buckets of cold water poured on the hot city gates, steaming up in puffs of snow-white steam, which quickly steamed and dissipated.

The fire burned on the city gate, although the cold water poured by the Jizhou army in the city finally succeeded in cooling the city gate, and did not let the flames burn it through, but the outside of the city gate was already burned black, showing that the entire gate was already much more brittle.

"Qu Shuai, attack again, and you can break through the city gate!" Looking at the Handan City Gate from afar, Du Chang, who was standing behind Zhang Yan, leaned to Zhang Yan's side and whispered to him: "The last general is willing to lead the troops to charge, if the Handan City Gate is not broken, the last general will never come back alive to see Qu Shuai." ”

With a cold face, looking at the city gate of Handan, Zhang Yan nodded slowly, was silent for a moment, and said to Du Chang: "It is not difficult to break through the city gate. But it will not be easy to storm the city. For now, you can only know the destiny of heaven as much as possible, and when the fire under the city is extinguished, you can lead the army to charge. If you can't kill Handan City, you just have to come back and see so-and-so! Ben Qu Shuai will not blame you! ”

"No!" Du Chang responded with a fist clenched, and quickly ran towards the front of the army.!

The Montenegrin army's first full-scale attack on Handan City ended in failure, and while they were brewing until the fire was extinguished and then launching a second round of attacks, Liu Wei had already led the main force of the Luoyang army to the southwest of their large array.

The infantry of the Luoyang Army, including Lu Bu's camp, quickly set up a formation and confronted the Black Mountain Army a hundred paces away.

The 10,000 cavalry of the Luoyang Army, who had just been transferred to the battlefield from Luoyang, followed closely behind Liu Wei and listed the phalanx at the forefront of the Chinese army.

All the cavalry took off their shields from behind them, they held their swords in one hand and shields in the other, and their eyes were full of expectation, staring at the Montenegrin army who was confronting them.

In the eyes of the cavalry of the Luoyang Army, the horse rejection piles and stumbling ropes posed by the Black Mountain Army seemed to be completely non-existent. The cavalry of the Luoyang Army didn't care about what kind of arrangement the Black Mountain Army had made, they only looked forward to Liu Wei giving the order to charge, so that they could fight happily on the battlefield after being idle for a long time.

It was very close to Handan City, but Liu Wei did not order the whole army to attack the Montenegrin army. He just rode on horseback, silently staring at the Black Mountain Army array a hundred paces away, waiting for the best time to come.

The approach of the main force of the Luoyang army made the Montenegrin army that intended to intercept them busy.

Wang Dang's 100,000 Black Mountain Army, lined up in a not neat formation, tightly clutched the blades in his hands, and looked at the main force of the Luoyang Army that was already very close to them from a distance. The expressions of all the Montenegrin troops showed a deep sense of apprehension and unease.

Inky battle flags fluttered in the wind, and the phalanx lined up by the soldiers of the Luoyang Army wearing red robes was red, like a raging fire burning in the field.

At the foot of the city walls, flames rolled and rose, making a "whirring" sound in the wind. The flames swept through everything they could, and even the dead bodies that were submerged in the flames were burned and bubbled with grease.

The fire scorched the corpses, and a foul stench wafted from beneath the city, accompanied by billowing smoke.

The Yu Linwei at the head of the city, one by one, covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves, frowning tightly, and their expressions revealed endless disgust for this stench.

Like the Yulin guards, Zhao Yun couldn't stand the stench that poured up on the city, he covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and his eyes looked at the flying ink-colored battle flag in the distance.

The battle flag of the Luoyang army is just a stone's throw away from them. Looking at the flying battle flag, Zhao Yun knew that his previous guess was completely correct, the reason why the Montenegrin Army launched an all-out attack was to take a gamble at the end. If they can break through Handan, the Montenegrin army can fight their way out of a desperate situation; If they fail to break through Handan, in order to avoid being completely annihilated by the Luoyang army, it will not be long before the Montenegrin army outside the city will withdraw as soon as possible.
