This city tower was finally taken by the Xuzhou army!

Wang Da cake and other first archers did not stop for a moment, and continued to advance to the next arrow tower, Peng Hai and other first archers also followed them forward, and more than 20 archers climbed up the arrow tower, they threw the corpse of Yuan Shujun on the arrow tower down the city, and then occupied their respective positions on the arrow tower, vigilantly looking at the surrounding situation, one to support their own people to advance to another arrow tower, and second, to prevent the enemy from regaining this position.

The inside of the city wall was not all piled up with mounds of earth, but Zhang Xun also considered the transportation of materials for defending the city. Therefore, he built a gentle slope at the location of each arrow tower to supply the materials for the city defense and continuously transport them upward, and also made it convenient for the city guards to enter the city. But at this moment, this gentle slope has become the Xuzhou army.

When more than 300 people led by Wang Dabao advanced forward, the follow-up about seven or eight hundred ordinary soldiers descended from this position, and under the orders of their respective commanders and Dubo, they formed a formation, carefully guarding the surrounding movements.

On the other side, at the arrow tower, the same thing is happening. Gao Shun's side has also occupied an arrow tower. So far, so far, it seems, everything is going well.

On the tower of the Nancheng City Gate, Tian Fan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the progress of Gao Shun and Ko Yi.

He nodded slightly and said, "Okay!" It's hard work, you go back and continue to investigate! ”

The little colonel clenched his fists and took the order, turned and strode away.

At the east city wall of Liyang, Wei Yan worked hard for a long time, and he could finally rest for a while.

Zhao Yundao: "Wen Chang, is it okay now?" ”

Wei Yan nodded and said, "Hmm! The soldiers in the city shot arrows like crazy, and now more than an hour has passed, and it is estimated that each of them has shot thirty feathered arrows, and they are exhausted! ”

Zhao Yun nodded, smiled, and said, "Then next, it's up to me!" ”

After a slight pause, he looked at the knight behind him and said, "Brothers, you are all cavalry, but you are also infantry, even if you don't have horses, I believe that your combat strength will not be worse than that of infantry brothers!" Let's go, kill the enemy with me! ”

After that, Zhao Yun jumped off the white dragon horse and rushed forward with a bow and arrow in his hand. The two thousand flying feathered knights behind him all jumped off their horses and followed him on a quick walk to the city wall.

The training of the Flying Feather Battalion has been going on, although they have not yet reached Zhao Yun's requirements, and they have not reached the level of hitting every chance when the war horse is galloping, but when they are not riding, their archery skills are very strong!

The soldiers of Yuan Shujun in the city were choked by Wei Yan and the four thousand infantry, and they were already tired and stupid, and when they saw Zhao Yun bringing people here, they immediately prepared to release arrows again. But my arm is so sore!

Zhao Yun took two thousand flying feather knights to the protected place of the infantry shield and the special toad cart in front of him, and began to fire arrows to fight back!

The distance was only fifty or sixty paces, and the soldiers had a clear effect on their arrows. Facing the sparse rain of arrows on the other side, Zhao Yun's soldiers shot sharp arrows one after another at the head of the city. The special arrows, with strong penetrating power, shot and wounded hundreds of soldiers on the city in just one round, and the soldiers of Yuan Shu, who had been abusing Wei Yan, finally tasted the taste of being abused.

A captain on the city wall was suddenly shocked and hurriedly shouted: "Be careful with bows and arrows!" ”

The soldiers were busy hiding, but in order to observe the movements of the Xuzhou army, they still had to show their heads from time to time. Often, as soon as the head is exposed, a feather arrow is shot over, and those who are lucky and quick to react can dodge, and those who are unlucky can only die.

At this moment, Wei Yan came back again!

This time, the whole army is out. Four thousand foot soldiers, nearly two thousand cavalry, all poured over. At the head of the city a soldier stretched out his head, and when he looked at it, his heart was immediately filled with surprise and puzzlement. He opened his mouth wide and was about to speak, when he heard a loud "bang" in the distance, and a feathered arrow shot like lightning, hitting him in the head. …,

In the distance, after Zhao Yun retracted his bow, he smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Wei Yan's position.

Among the more than 5,000 people led by Wei Yan, in addition to those carrying high ladders, there were also countless people pushing huge things. It is a plate with a thickness of up to three feet and a length and width of several feet after a simple bundle of countless bamboos. It was about the same length as the moat and was designed to cross the river.

The bottom was carried by a number of carts after simple bundling, so that the soldiers could move the bamboo by simply pushing it, rather than carrying the huge weight of countless bamboos.

Zhao Yun shouted: "Brothers, push the toad cart into the water and open a way for the brothers behind!" ”

More than 1,000 people in front immediately moved to push the toad cart, while the 1,000 people in the back were still responsible for shooting arrows and suppressing the enemies on the city walls.

When the captain in the city saw these large bamboo rafts, he immediately understood the true intention of the Xuzhou army, and hurriedly shouted: "Release the arrows, release the arrows, release the arrows quickly!" ”

The soldiers had no choice but to risk being shot and continue to fire their arrows. After a round of feathered arrows in the city, dozens of people fell under the city, and hundreds more fell on the city.

The situation here was informed by the herald sent by the captain of the city wall, and the rest of the soldiers rushed here to reinforce it. The soldiers under the city also learned the news, and under the leadership of their respective officers, they rushed along the gentle slope next to the arrow tower, ready to reinforce.

Outside the city, the Xuzhou foot soldiers shouted trumpets and pushed the huge bamboo raft to the city wall.

Zhao Yun's Flying Feather Battalion had already pushed all the toad carts into the water beforehand, so as not to block the road behind.

There were more and more reinforcements in the city, and the density of feather arrows also increased a lot, and the casualties of the soldiers of the Flying Feather Battalion began to increase. Correspondingly, the city was crowded, which was a good target for the soldiers of the Feiyu Battalion, and the losses of Yuan Shujun's army also increased sharply.

Finally, the raft was pushed to the edge of the trench. Zhao Yun and Wei Yan loudly encouraged the soldiers, and the bamboo raft was slowly pushed into the trench.

Half an hour later, the three bamboo rafts all entered the water, and the three wide and three-zhang smooth roads were finally formed, and the Xuzhou army could rest assured that they would attack the city!

Lu Bu and Hao Meng in Xicheng are also doing the same thing, and Xu Sheng and Cao Xing in Beicheng are doing the same.

The raft was thick and wide enough that it would not sink into the water even if there were dozens of soldiers standing on it, and its size was designed according to the width of the trench, and once it entered the water, it would get stuck on both sides and would not move.

Under the leadership of Wei Yan, Xu Sheng, and Hao Meng, tens of thousands of foot soldiers of the Xuzhou army carried high ladders to the city wall. And the four thousand archers of the Flying Feather Battalion and the two thousand archers selected from the army, a total of six thousand people, provided cover for them. This battle has reached a critical moment!

Lu Bu shot several enemy Dubo, team leader, and Qu Chang in a row, and saw that Hao Meng and the others had already set up the high ladder at the head of the city and were preparing to go to the city, so they couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

He turned his head to look at the little colonel beside him and asked, "What's the situation in the city?" ”

The little colonel had just returned from Tian Fan, and when he heard this, he clenched his fists and said: "Wenhou, everything is going well in the city, the southern city wall has been completely controlled by our army, and at the same time, it has also controlled the enemy within a hundred steps of the city wall. When the villain came back, General Zhengqing and General Koji were leading their soldiers to attack the corner tower in the southeast and southwest corners...... "His eyes swept over the corner tower in the southwest corner of the city wall, and he saw that the flag on the corner tower had changed, and he was busy pointing to the corner tower and said excitedly: "Wen Hou, please look, the corner tower in the southwest corner has been knocked down!" ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he looked there, and his heart suddenly stirred!

He shouted, "Come on, brethren! We can't lose to Zhengqing and Lao Koji! ”

The eight hundred back-mounted warriors and the one thousand flying feather battalions around him roared in unison, and the bows and arrows in their hands shot more and more accurately, and faster and faster!

In the city, where Zhang Xun is located. …,

He couldn't be as laid-back as he was in the morning, and the constant bad news drove him crazy!

"Report ......! General Qiyu, the entire southern city wall was lost, and the passage connecting the arrow tower in the city was occupied by the enemy, and all of them were lost. The soldiers were retreating, preparing to fight against the partitions. ”

"Report ......! General Qiqi, the enemy army in the southern city has broken through the seventh layer of obstacles! After a short rest, they are heading in both directions! ”

"Report ......! General Qiqi, the enemy army on the west city wall has already landed in the city twice, although we have been defeated by our army, but our soldiers are exhausted, General Liu asked the general for support! ”

"Report ......! General Qiyu, the corner tower in the southeast corner of the city has been overcome, and the enemy, with ironclad infantry and crossbowmen as the vanguard, is attacking along the east city wall. ”

……

Zhang Xun slammed the table and roared, "How can I have so many reinforcements? Go and give me an order, let them resist me, I can't resist it! ”

As the war became more and more tense, Zhang Xun had already sent out all the soldiers he could send, but the city wall was still lost section by piece, and the obstacles in the city were still pulled down by the Xuzhou army one by one.

It's really unexpected, if the Xuzhou army doesn't move, after a few days of quiet, the whole army will be dispatched when it moves!

He thought right, Tian Fan was indeed the whole army, and even Zheng Baojun, who was rushing back from transporting grain, was sent by him to clean up the remaining enemies in the houses after Pang De, Shi Hua, and Shi Lu, the three armies that were making trouble in the city, pulled out their strongholds, and at the same time were responsible for extinguishing the burning fires in the city.

The cavalry was used as infantry, the navy was used as infantry, and all the soldiers who could go to the battlefield were used as infantry, and they were all sent to the battlefield by him, which was why there was such a big movement. Among the more than 50,000 people, Tian Fan only left 10,000 people as reserves, and the remaining more than 40,000 people participated in this battle, which was more than the soldiers defending in the city, enough for them to drink a pot!

And now, the effect is obvious. Zhang Xun is in a tight situation everywhere, a large area in the south of the city is slowly being lost, and the city walls are also slowly being lost. Zhang Xun has sent all the soldiers in the city except for the necessary soldiers in various obstacles, but the whole front is still tight, and the war is becoming more and more difficult to fight.

In the city, Pang De had already attacked more than one mile, only two miles away from Zhang Xun's granary and the Chinese army, that is, six hundred steps.

After receiving Tian Fan's steady military order, Pang De began to attack on both sides, and today as long as he can control the position of more than a mile within the southern city wall, he has achieved his strategic goal!

Zhang Xun was about to die of sorrow, he slapped the dwarf and shouted: "Send a letter to the generals, let them hold out until dark!" As long as we hold out until dark, we will launch a counter-charge and regain all the lost territory! ”

After several small schools clenched their fists, they went to various places to give orders.

On the tower of Nancheng City, Tian Fan was the same as in the morning, his posture did not change, like a wood carving, quietly looking at the location of the fire in the city.

The tactics of the three Pounds are the same, they all use fire attacks to destroy the enemy's formation, and then rush through. As a result, the pond fish inevitably suffered, and many people in the city caught fire one after another. But in order to end the war earlier, he could only do this.
