Sitting in the north and facing south, it will always be the mainstream of ancient Chinese architecture, and it is also common to build a city. When the ancient www.biquge.info s built the soil for the city, except for the metropolis like Luoyang, the general city did not exceed four city gates, and if it was less than this, there would inevitably be a south gate.

Because he couldn't see the situation in the big array, out of prudence, Liu Feng did not divide his troops to other sides. The attack of the army was in the southern city of Shu County, and it was only in the southern city, and the void in front of it was pierced with a spear, which looked quite funny.

When a visible fluctuation appeared, Liu Feng knew that the great array enveloping Shu County was about to break.

Finally, when the fluctuations fell silent, Liu Feng saw the defenders of Shu County, who were waiting for battle.

......Before he could see the situation on the city wall, he heard clear voices, and countless arrows rained out. The "besieger" soldiers, who had not yet reacted, then fell, causing serious chaos.

"Mingjin, collect the troops!" Bai Jianjian immediately gave the order.

After the sound of gold sounded, the Jiangdong army, which finally reacted, under the leadership of their respective superiors, slowly withdrew from the coverage of the arrows with shields, and then assembled and returned to the battle.

"Tsk, it's a pity, the time is too short, but more than a thousand people remained." In the city, looking at the retreating Liu Fengjun, Liu Xun felt a little regretful, looked at Liu Ye and said, "It would be nice if the trebuchet could be farther away." He knew that Liu Ye had this talent, and his intelligent trebuchet could throw stone projectiles farther.

The reason why the catapult was not dispatched just now while the enemy was retreating was because there were too few enemies in rotation to make it worthwhile to send the catapult. As the defenders of the city, they have limited reserves of stones, and it is impossible for them to go out of the city to quarry stones in a stable manner, so they can only save some money.

Liu Ye was silent, but he couldn't stop scolding Liu Xun for being greedy. The attack distance of the ordinary trebuchet is only more than 100 zhang, even if there is a condescending bonus of the city wall, it is at most about 1 mile, and he has increased the attack distance of the trebuchet to nearly 2 miles, this guy is not satisfied. The distance of 3 miles is no longer easy to reach with long-range attacks.

"Ziyang, can you guarantee to suppress the other party's catapult?" Seeing that Liu Ye was silent, Liu Xun directly called his name.

"As long as the number is sufficient, I will ensure that the catapults of the Jiangdong Army will be suppressed." Liu Ye said calmly.

"That's good, there is no joke in the army, if there is an accident at that time, don't blame Ben Tai for being ruthless in guarding military law." Liu Xun was aggressive.

"I understand below." Liu Ye said.

"Fujun, someone called the city!" At this moment, someone next to Liu Xun said.

"Really." Liu Xun looked back at the city, and a knight slowly approached the city under the banner of "Liu", waving the flag, so he said, "Don't act rashly, listen to what he has to say first." ”

The knight was naturally sent by Liu Feng, although he knew that Liu Xun would not be able to surrender, but he still wanted to send someone to persuade him to show that he was a righteous soldier and a master of the Tao.

"No way? Arrogating? Liu Xun didn't get angry because of the words of the knights under the city, "There is nothing in this world today, just look at who is stronger, as the so-called 'prince and general Xiangning have a kind', in the end, it depends on success or failure." Drive him away and prepare for the fight. ”

It's not that Liu Xun is generous, but that he feels that being angry with a pawn is insulting his identity.

Liu Xun spoke, and naturally someone patted the horse, and in an instant, several arrows shot into the ground in front of the knight. Seeing this, the knight did not say anything more, and turned his horse back.

"It's okay, let's take the siege!" Seeing the knight returning, Liu Feng commanded. After saying this, he immediately got out of the way and did not affect Bai Jian's command.

The strategy of attacking the city had already been agreed, and Bai Jian gave an order, and immediately soldiers protected more than ten catapults, slowly approaching the city wall.

However, before they could reach the attack range, countless stones flew up from the city wall, flying towards these people, and without checking any of them, dozens of people were immediately hit, and even two catapults were tragically hit and fell apart.

"Retreat ......" Jun Sima who led the team immediately shouted loudly, while directing the retreat. But alas, the movement of the catapult was not as convenient as that of the foot soldiers, and when they were evacuated to safety, they were hit by two more flying stones, killing and wounding dozens of people, and breaking a catapult.

"Fujun, how's it going?" In the city, Liu Ye looked at Liu Xundao.

"Yes, yes, as long as they are suppressed to death, let them use the corpses to build a ladder for the siege." Liu Xun laughed.

Lu Fan shook his head on the side, this Liu Xun is so happy, and he wants to have a bright face. Before, he tried the big array desperately, consumed a hole card, and now he exposed the attack range of the catapult in advance, wouldn't it be cheap for the enemy again, so that the enemy can find out the reality of his own side?

But can't Liu Ziyang think of this? Or did he have something else in mind? Lu Fan muttered to himself in his heart.

"The lord clearly saw that the range of the enemy's catapults was indeed far beyond that of our army." Seeing the retreating soldiers, Xun You said.

"Fortunately, it was just a temptation just now, if you rush forward like before, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the loss will be great." Bai Jian also said.

"That's right, Shu County is not any city we attacked before, he is a big city, and he has the support of Yuan Shu, so any caution is not too much." Liu Feng admonished.

But in his heart, he is also more lucky. Fortunately, he sounded just now, Liu Ye is the maker of the thunderbolt car, and in the battle of Guandu, it was he who entered the thunderbolt car towards Cao Cao to suppress Yuan Shao's long-range attack. This kind of ability, put in the game, if it is not strengthened, it cannot be said. Fortunately, only more than a dozen catapults were dispatched, and the reality was tested.

However, does Liu Ye really only have such ability? The catapult had not been far into range before it immediately moved. If you wait for your own catapult to reach the attack position before attacking, you can achieve greater results, and even completely annihilate the catapult that was dispatched this time.

At this moment, Liu Feng, like Lu Fan, also suspected Liu Ye's motives.

"What's next?" Liu Feng asked Xun Youdao.

"Keep sending people to test the enemy's catapult bottom line and see what their farthest attack range is." Xun You said calmly, "Lord, the battalion must retreat somewhat, and the subordinates dare not guarantee that the Yuan army has a long-range offensive equipment that threatens here." ”

"Okay, then go on, what to do, your command is, I will not interfere." Liu Feng is self-aware.

In the following time, Xun You sent another 7 rounds of catapult troops, losing thousands of people and dozens of catapults, and finally determined the farthest attack distance of Yuan's catapults, which was almost 2 miles.

"It's not easy to do!" Xun You also had a headache.

"It's getting dark for a night, let's go back first, and discuss how to attack the city." Liu Feng said.

They had only a million men here, and there was no sign of the enemy these days, and the large army had been camped thirty miles away. Now that the enemy has appeared, it is time to discuss the siege of the city.

PS: It's not too clear how far the trebuchet can attack, just count it as three or four hundred meters, let's take a look, don't delve into it, forgive me.
