Shen Fan felt that the knife in the hand of the city defender was tightened, and the eyes of the middle-aged strategist on the side seemed to be expecting something.

If it is understandable that the general defending the city is nervous, but the middle-aged strategist's neck poked forward, looking intently at the moat in front of the city wall, why is this? Could it be that there is another mystery to this moat?

The hoplites in the front row carried their shields and stepped on the frozen river surface of the moat, and the infantry carrying the ladder in the back followed closely behind, and the entire city wall seemed to have lost its breath at this moment, and the archers on the city wall held their breath, and the bowstring in their hands had been stretched for the most part, just waiting for the enemy to enter the best range of bows and arrows, and waiting for the enemy army must be a rain of arrows one after another.

"Raise your shield!"

Hearing the order, the hoplites in the front row raised the huge shield in their hands, the huge shield raised could effectively defend against the rain of arrows thrown from the city wall, and the huge shield was large enough to block two people.

Seeing that the enemy army had already marched, Shen Fan was anxious in his heart, he had already reached the range of the archers, why didn't he give the order to release the arrows, did he still prepare to "not attack the soldiers of Bandu", Shen Fan had no control over his body, only the first perspective of the general who defended the city, to put it bluntly, now Shen Fan is an audience, and he can only be anxious in his heart.

The middle-aged strategist next to him didn't say a word to remind the general, and still stared intently at the moat in front of the city wall.

Shen Fan seemed to have seen the smile of the enemy general when the city gate was breached.

"It's now!" The middle-aged strategist who had been staring at the moat suddenly exclaimed, without the slightest gesture of a scribe.

Shen Fan looked at it from the perspective of the general defending the city, at this time, the ice surface of the moat suddenly collapsed, and the originally neat ice suddenly collapsed on the side close to the city wall, and most of the heavy armored soldiers in the front row even fell into the big hole in the ice with shields, originally these sudden ice caves did not have much impact on so many enemy troops, but the formation of the front row was chaotic, which would inevitably affect the formation of the rear soldiers, and the soldiers in the rear did not know what was going on in front of them, and they would continue to squeeze forward, so that the formation was completely chaotic.

At this moment, the giant shield array, which was originally like a turtle shell, was self-defeating.

"General, we succeeded!" The middle-aged scribe said in a gaffe again.

The defender suppressed the excitement in his heart, now the plan is only half successful, but the next half is more important.

The general defending the city waved his hand and ordered: "Release the arrow!" ”

The archers, who had been preparing for a long time, could not wait when they saw the enemy army entering the firing range, but the general did not give the order for a long time.

After receiving the general's order, ten thousand arrows were fired in an instant, and the first wave of arrow rain smashed into the enemy with a whistling sound.

The front-row infantry without a shield defense soon suffered, and they didn't have time to raise their shields, and in the blink of an eye, a whistling rain of arrows rushed over, and before they could resist, they were pierced into hedgehogs, and they couldn't die anymore.

The infantry in the back row didn't know what was going on, so they just squeezed forward, complaining that the soldiers in front of them didn't leave, but now they saw a dense rain of arrows like locusts shooting in, and they squeezed forward even harder.

The siege of the city is to resist the rain of arrows of the defenders and climb the ladder to rush to the city wall, seeing that the defenders have launched a rain of arrows, the soldiers behind are even more complaining that the soldiers in front are slow and squeeze forward.

And the soldiers in front are even more distressed, there are a lot of big holes on the ice, not that there are many that can't be passed, but this big hole that will appear if you don't know where to step on it really affects the marching speed of the front row of soldiers, coupled with wave after wave of arrow rain, the front row of soldiers is really difficult to advance.

The soldiers in the front row were cautiously worried that the ice would break at any time, and the soldiers in the rear complained about the slow speed of the soldiers in front and squeezed forward.

The first wave of the enemy's infantry was in this embarrassing situation in the moat, and the soldiers in the rear did not want to be used as a live target for archers, so they could not retreat and could only squeeze forward, and the soldiers in front were worried that the ice would break at any time, so they cautiously tested the ice and had to march around the ice hole.

The general on the city wall clenched his fists excitedly at this scene.

"Pass the order down and let the archers cover General Zhang!" The general defending the city waved his hand and commanded the herald behind him.

When the herald received the order, he ran down the tower as fast as he could.

At this time, the general in the rear of the enemy army was also puzzled, "Why did the infantry army in front delay in attacking the city?" ”

The general of the besieging side did not occupy the commanding heights, naturally could not see what happened in front of him, the front line was too long, the news transmission was naturally not well-informed, to say the commanding heights, there is no here, in front of Yungu Pass is a plain of Pingchuan, the location of this Yungu Pass is also peculiar, the location is extremely dangerous, it is a necessary place to march eastward, otherwise it would not have mobilized so many troops to besiege this easy to defend and difficult to attack city.

At this time, the enemy general's right eyelid suddenly moved violently, and the general suddenly felt palpitations: "Is there going to be an accident!" “

The general had to look at his own soldiers in front of him who were rushing towards Yungu Pass like a tide, and ordered: "The cavalry in the rear quickly assemble here!" ”

In order to prevent the reinforcements of Yungu Pass, he left a cavalry at the rear to prevent accidents, and at this moment, he clearly felt an unusual feeling after a long battle, and he couldn't care about the reinforcements that might appear in the rear to support Yungu Pass!

Looking at the herald's galloping figure on horseback, the palpitations did not diminish in the slightest.

At this time, the silent city wall suddenly erupted with the sound of drums, this time three waves of arrow rain broke out on the city wall in a row, as if to shoot all the arrows in the quiver, this is not over, the big killing weapon on the city wall has not yet been used The five three-bow bed crossbows on the city wall have not yet shown their grandeur, the five three-bow bed crossbows burst out again and again, and the huge arrows of the branches accompanied the arrow rain shot by the archers, smashing towards the enemy under the city.

The huge arrows fired from the three-bow bed crossbow often had to shoot through several rows of people before they could stop, and the rain of arrows was like a wave of AOE damage, clearing the waves of enemy troops below.

Shen Fan was also stunned when he saw the three-bow bed crossbow, this is a big killer on the battlefield! Shen Fan, who is familiar with history, knows that the three-bow bed crossbow only appeared in the Song Dynasty, but the three-bow bed crossbow appeared in "Shengshi", although "Shengshi" is based on the history of the Three Kingdoms, but many settings do not completely copy the history of the Three Kingdoms. Therefore, it is normal for some settings to appear beyond the historical background.

Shen Fan was also very surprised to see the row of three-bow bed crossbows, what was surprising was not that the appearance of these three-bow bed crossbows did not conform to history, they all dreamed of what kind of history, what was surprising was that the three-bow bed crossbow was used now is not a bit overkill, the three-bow bed crossbow is best used in dense enemies or sieges, the enemy formation under the city wall is already chaotic, and Shen Fan really feels a bit wasteful to use the three-bow bed crossbow in this place.

Three-bow bed crossbow arrows with hard wood as the arrow shaft, with iron pieces as the feather, known as "one gun and three sword arrows", the bed crossbow can also fire "stepping arrows", when firing is magnificent, the arrows are like javelins, close firing can be directly nailed into the city wall, when the salvo is fired, rows of stepping arrows are firmly nailed into the city wall, the siege soldiers can climb up by this, the three-bow bed crossbow can be described as a veritable big killing weapon.

To say that Shen Fan has heard of the three-bow bed crossbow a long time ago, but he has never seen it, and when he saw it today, he was really domineering, but it was a pity that Shen Fan was just a spectator now, or Shen Fan really had to touch it in person to have a good time, just as Shen Fan was looking forward to whether there would be a catapult or something, Shen Fan had seen it.

The catapult that Shen Fan was expecting did not appear, but the gate under the city creaked open.

"Could it be that a mole opened the door from the inside? It shouldn't be, this defender has just turned a little bit" Just when Shen Fan was confused, a horse jumped out of the city gate, followed by a large group of cavalry.

"General Zhang is out of the city!" The middle-aged strategist beside him reminded him at the right time.

"It turns out that he is the General Zhang I just mentioned~!" Shen Fan thought in his heart that the general defending the city had just asked the herald to inform General Zhang, and thought that the person who led the cavalry out of the city to meet the enemy was the General Zhang just mentioned, this General Zhang was carrying a Xuanhua axe, and his face was full of beard, which looked like Zhang Fei.

"Eh, their surnames are Zhang, this can't be Zhang Fei, but Wu Qi is wrong!" Just as Shen Fan was thinking about whether this was Zhang Fei or not, the suspension bridge at the city gate had already fallen.

At this time, the skill is activated, and the ---------- system prompts: Yungu Pass Guard will Li Hua launch the skill [Cauldron Breaker]: The cavalry under his command will increase the speed by 20%, the attack by 20%, and the defense by 20%.

Shen Fan finally heard the long-lost system prompt, and as for whether it was in a dream, Shen Fan was even more confused.

Immediately after that, another system prompt, Ding —------- system prompt: "Yungu Guan Strategist Li Ru launches the skill:" [Rush]: The speed of the cavalry under his command is increased by 20%, and the attack power is increased by 5%.

Immediately after, two rays of light quickly enveloped the cavalry under the city.

With a roar from General Zhang, the cavalry began to charge, and the previous rain of arrows and the salvo of the three-bow bed crossbow were all paving the way for this time to go out of the city to meet the enemy.

I have to say that it is risky to go out of the city to meet the enemy this time, and winning is a major blow to the enemy's morale, but if you lose, the already small defenders will lose half of it, and if you don't get it right, you may be taken advantage of the chaos by the enemy to break through the city gate.

Although there is an element of gambling, if Shen Fan is the general who guards the city, he will also gamble like this once, and if he doesn't gamble once, he will really die.

Don't look at the fact that although this time the enemy formation was chaotic, it did not cause fundamental damage to the enemy army, after all, the difference in the number of enemies and friends is obvious.
