Chapter 481 Fight Xinfeng City Again

When the more than 600,000 troops came to Xinfeng City, they saw flags fluttering from a distance, which was continuous, like a blue sea that could not be seen at a glance.

This formation alone was enough to chill the soldiers of Dong Zhuojun defending the city.

"Oh my God, why are there so many enemies, even if they stand there and let us kill, I'm afraid they will kill until they are soft."

"Yes, there are so many enemies this time, can we hold it?"

"What to do? The generals won't run away, leave us alone. ”

When they saw Zhang Chao's army appearing under the city, on the tower of Xinfeng City, Dong Zhuo's soldiers had already begun to talk about it, and even more soldiers had already begun to think about the way back. I'm afraid that anyone who faces such a strong army can't help but think of defeat.

In addition to the daily training, there is also a regular training that is different from the other princes' armies, that is, the training of queues and military postures.

But don't underestimate military posture and platoon training, this is indeed a way to quickly build up the morale of soldiers. It was precisely with this kind of training that when more than 600,000 troops appeared here, they did not panic at all, and all the soldiers stood still in an orderly manner under the leadership of their respective company commanders, and at the same time brought out a monstrous murderous aura.

As soon as the army appeared, it gave Dong Zhuo's army on the city tower a strong sense of oppression.

As the general guarding the city, Wang Fang naturally felt it, but he had no way out. Zhuge Liang had sent a message to him before, if he retreated without even defending the city, the gates of Yin City would not be opened for him, and at that time, once Zhang Chao's army was killed, he would have no way to retreat.

I believe that Zhuge Liang can say it and do it. Wang Fang can't fight this time.

"Well, don't be afraid, although they are numerous, when they really attack the city, they can only rush a few people at a time. As I said, we have an army of 100,000 men, and we are so well prepared, what is there to fear? Wang Fang stood on top of the tower and began to boost the morale of the soldiers. He was really afraid that before the war started, his morale would be dispersed, in that case, how could he defend the city?

Wang Fang's shout, plus he sent a team of soldiers to supervise the duty, that is, once it was found that anyone was cowardly before fighting and became a deserter, he could be killed on the spot, and the march would be punished. Under such means, although these soldiers were still scared in their hearts, at least they would not flee immediately.

Compared with the fear and timidity of the soldiers in the city, Zhang Chao under the city was sitting in a special carriage at the moment.

The carriage was eight meters long and six meters wide, and was nearly fifty square meters in size. On top of it, a large chair and a wooden table were set up, which were also covered with side dishes with wine, as well as the best boutique overlord drunk.

Because there is no curtain, it is very empty, and you can also use it to see everything outside.

Zhang Chao, who had been here for a long time and was sitting next to him on the big chair of the carriage, was sitting there drinking wine unhurriedly at this time, until Xu Chu, the chief of the guard behind him, changed his waist and said softly, "Lord, the time has come." ”

"Hmm." He nodded slightly, and after that, Zhang Chao turned his gaze to Lu Bu and the other five generals and said, "Generals, are you ready?" ”

"Ready." Led by Lu Bu, Wen Chou, the deputy commander of the First Legion, Gao Gan, the deputy commander of the Fourth Legion, Yan Liang, the deputy commander of the Sixth Legion, and Zhang Liao, the commander of the Seventh Legion, all nodded heavily. If you look closely, you can also see a strong fighting intent in their eyes. Obviously, for this moment, they have been prepared for a long time.

"Good." Looking at the five tiger generals in front of him, Zhang Chao nodded with satisfaction, "In this way, I wish you all the generals success." Well, when any of you is the first to storm into the city, I'll invite him to my carriage and drink with me, okay? ”

Hearing that there was such a treatment, that they could drink with the lord in front of hundreds of thousands of troops, a burning look appeared in the eyes of the five generals.

It's not as simple as having a glass of wine. In normal times, Zhang Chao rewards these generals and heroes with drunkenness, and this boutique overlord is also rewarded. But this time it was a public drink with the Lord, or in front of so many soldiers, what a glorious thing!

"Haha, my lord and rest assured, this glass of wine, the cloth is drunk." After Lu Bu heard this, he quickly reacted, and then took it as he could.

"Hehe, Liao also has this intention, General Lu, you will have to work hard in a while." The voice of Zhang Liao, the commander of the Seventh Legion, also came, and then he looked at Lu Bu with a smile.

In addition to these two people, the other Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Gao Gan have not long surrendered, and they are not good at showing their flamboyant side in front of Zhang Chao, but from their eager eyes, they can still clearly feel that they also have the confidence to lead troops to attack Xinfeng City first.

Seeing that the generals' soldiers were mobilized, Zhang Chao laughed and said: "Okay, it's a good thing to have confidence, but you also have to have such a skill." Okay, each of you, go and prepare, and listen to my command in a moment. ”

"No." The five generals also knew that it was useless to talk more at this time, and they could only see the difference from the battlefield, so they immediately hugged their fists and agreed, and then retreated.

After waiting for the five generals to retreat, Zhang Chao turned his head to Xu Chu and said, "Zhongkang, prepare to attack the city." ”

"No." After Xu Chu agreed, he raised his right hand high, and then slowly fell.

And after Xu Chu's order was issued, in the camp of more than 600,000 troops, a full hundred huge catapults were launched.

Although Zhang Chao believed that his generals were brave enough and very confident in capturing the city, the senseless effort was not what he wanted. Reducing casualties to a minimum is the best thing. In this way, when he left Jinyang City, he transferred these hundred modified catapults from the Zhangjia Weapons Academy.

The advantage is that the car throws a longer distance, has more power, and is more threatening to the city wall.

The disadvantage, the body is a little too big and not too easy to transport. But fortunately, every time Zhang Chao occupies a place, he will not forget to build roads. This made it not too difficult for these big guys to be transported here from Jinyang City.

Hundreds of catapults suddenly appeared, and they were pushed forward by the soldiers. This scene saw in the eyes of Dong Zhuo's soldiers guarding Xinfeng City, which made their eyes widen one by one, and the look of fear also rose from their faces.

"Don't be afraid, these things are just bigger, and they don't necessarily have the power." On the top of the city tower, General Wang Fang once again shouted with encouragement to the soldiers. At this moment, in the face of such a strong enemy, although he was beating a drum in his heart, he really did not have the intention of retreating. After all, he is the leader of an army of 100,000, and he still has confidence just to defend a city.

Wang Fang was trying to calm the morale of the soldiers. Beneath the tower, the catapult was also moving slowly, and finally stopped when it was still four hundred paces away from the city.

Generally, the distance of the bow and arrow is about 150 steps, the more powerful ones can reach 220 steps, and some can reach 300 steps or even 350 steps. And 400 steps have already exceeded the range of the attack, and stopping here is enough safety.

Of course, unless Dong Zhuojun dares to come out of the city at this moment, kill in front of the catapult, and destroy it at close range, otherwise the car will not break. As for whether Wang Fang has such guts, there is no need to think about it, in the face of Lu Bu and other fierce generals, he will definitely not dare to go out of the city.

The catapult was placed in place, and then the boulders were placed, and then a loud bang rang out, and a hundred boulders flew forward from mid-air.

The boulders made a graceful arc in mid-air, and then fell on the towers, and the city walls.

"It's all about..."

With the sound of a loud bang, huge craters and depressions were smashed out of the walls of the entire Xinfeng City. And when a boulder happens to fall on the tower, it is often accompanied by countless shouts and the sound of fire oil being smashed to the ground.

Obviously, the previous Wang Fang was not fully prepared, he did not expect that the modified catapult could be thrown so far, nor did he expect that the catapult was almost in his eyes, let alone that the boulder thrown far exceeded his imagination.

Under all kinds of unexpected, the boulders fell into the place around him one by one, causing the prepared fire oil to be removed in time, and it was immediately sprinkled on the ground.

"Archers ready." The catapult was followed by 10,000 archers.

The soldiers were armed with the same modified Zhangjia longbow, each with a full fifty arrow feathers in the basket on their backs.

Under the unified order, the soldiers began to fire arrows.

This longbow, known as the Zhangjia standard, was also modified by the weapons masters. In normal times, a soldier with great strength can control the effective range of 350 steps, but now after modification, even ordinary soldiers can reach this distance, and even more powerful can reach 380 steps.

When the soldiers heard the order, they all pulled the arrow feathers behind them out of the arrow basket, and then dipped them in the brazier in front of them, and the ordinary arrow feathers were stained with flames and became rockets.

"First column, forward!"

As soon as the general in charge gave the order, all the archers continued to move forward, and this walk was a distance of fifty paces.

"Stop, set fire, fire in the first column. The second column is prepared. ”

"Woooo

The sound of bows and arrows continued, and pieces of arrow feathers hit like dense rain, flying straight towards Xinfeng City.

In this burst of rocket raids, most of the bows and arrows fell on the tower, and then some of them shot into the fallen oil, and suddenly the ocean of fire burned.
