Chapter 173, Playing the Xia Dynasty
Late for work
…
As soon as he thought of this, Dian Wei's twin halberds suddenly broke out, and the autumn wind swept away the leaves, killing three generals in an instant!
The milky white brain flower mixed with dark red blood splashed on Dian Wei's body, and three blood springs spurted blood, dyeing a piece of heaven and earth into blood red.
Xia Chao stood on the top of the wall and ordered the soldiers to withdraw, his face was a little tired, and he muttered in his heart: "Maybe you really shouldn't have taken that step in the first place." ”
"Monarch, let me come." Zhuge Mou said to Xia Chao at his side.
Xia Chao nodded silently.
Zhuge Mou ordered the herald to prepare to defend the city, this border city, only has more than 20,000 troops, so Zhuge Mou did not plan to be able to hold on, just need to arrive today for a day.
Qin Tian and several other monarchs were located in the rear, sitting on top of the carriage, surrounded by elite soldiers to defend, and the battlefield had been handed over to Lu Xun and others.
Lu Xun, Xiao Yu, Xiao Yi, Zhu Li, and the newly promoted generals Mo Hao, Zimo, Qi Yin and others gathered around to discuss countermeasures, and blindly barbaric sieges would only increase meaningless casualties.
And the siege of the four cities has been handed over to the competent generals to guard, many generals have expressed their opinions, and Lu Xun is most concerned about Qi Yin, is not to give other people's opinions some corrections, not to make a strategy, not a plan, so that Lu Xun is more and more vigilant about the pear country.
The more low-key and restrained it is, the brighter the light that finally erupts!
Lu Xun didn't dare to peep at Qi Yin, and then Zimo gathered the words confided by Qi Yin and decided on a siege method.
Less.
With the sound of rolling war drums, the Musou army that has been in place is ready to attack the city with spears in one hand, shields in hand, or crossbows in hand!
However, the Wushuang Army did not immediately attack the city, because there was one around Calciumyang City
Lu Xun gave an order and shouted: "Fill in the trench." Immediately a herald received the order and rode away.
Less leaning, more than a dozen wooden carts poured out of the army, and quickly advanced to the moat. Each vehicle was followed by more than 100 people, and under the cover of wooden carts and heavy shields, they began to take soil and fill the trenches.
Zhuge Mou on the city wall frowned, and his brows furrowed deeper and deeper as he listened to the news from the heralds.
"Report to the military division, the enemy troops at the north gate have withdrawn, do you want to pursue?"
"Newspaper!! Division, the enemy troops at the south gate quickly withdrew, did they pursue? ”
"Report to the military division, the enemy troops at the west gate have withdrawn, do you want to pursue?"
Zhuge Mou waved his hand and said, "No need to chase." Zhuge Mou, on the other hand, was a little suspicious of the enemy's intentions, kneaded his eyebrows, and focused his attention on the city.
After the expansion of the Xia Dynasty, the moat of Calciumyang City is now nearly four zhang wide, and Lu Xun wants to fill in a dirt road that can be passed by the army, at least 1 zhang wide, which is not an easy job.
Looking at the busy and vigilant Zhenguo soldiers below, Zhuge Mou said to the herald beside him: "Release the rocket." ”
There have been preparations for war for a long time, so the strategic materials of Calcium Yang City are still abundant.
Suddenly, hundreds of rockets split into several strands and intertwined like fiery snakes and shot towards the nearest wooden cart. The front end of the rocket is coated with various greases, which, once adhered to the cart, ignite the plank. Several wooden carts were set on fire and burned. The soldiers, who had lost the cover of the wooden carts behind, immediately became the target of the archers in the city.
And Lu Xun had already prepared, and deliberately prepared thousands of heavy shield soldiers to block Zhuge Mou's rockets.
The rocket shot on the shield, and the burning shield was hot, but now when the surname is at stake, if you choose between a pair of hands and a life, the heavy shield soldier undoubtedly chooses a pair of hands, but among the foot soldiers, there are also smart people, who take the opportunity to tear off a corner of their clothes and wrap their shield-holding hands, and sure enough, the feeling is greatly reduced.
Two hours later, the auxiliaries, who had almost lost all the casualties, finally paved five paths
Lu Xun didn't expect that the more than a dozen convoys would all succeed, but now that he saw that five roads had been filled, he waved his hand without delay and said, "Prepare to attack the city." The herald on standby immediately issued an announcement.
The first team of heavy shield soldiers held the handle of the iron shield with both hands, and quickly ran forward for the cover of the auxiliary soldiers holding the ladder, and the shooting of the bow feathers on the city tower.
Zhuge Mou issued orders one after another, gathered all the archers to the east gate, and made all the archers stare at the range, as soon as the enemy entered them, they began to shoot.
The foot soldiers helped the people of the city transport strategic supplies and boiled hot oil, while the auxiliaries helped the archers to light the arrows.
All the archers are arranged in three teams, which can save manpower and shoot effectively, avoiding the meaningless loss of arrow rain.
The heavy shield soldiers dispatched by Lu Xun held a huge shield to cover the auxiliary soldiers into the firing range, but Zhuge Mou's order did not sound, but looked at them coldly.
Zhuge Mou stared at the auxiliaries covered by the giant shield soldiers, and at this moment, Zhuge Mou's order came out of his mouth.
"Rocket!"
The arrows that were already full of bows were empty, and the dense rain of rockets and arrows was entangled into a series of fire snakes, which poured out with their wings poured, thinking that they were covered below.
Lu Xun ordered!
The fast-moving heavy shield soldiers looked stunned suddenly, and then quickly withdrew from the range, causing Zhuge Mou's first batch of rockets to be completely wasted.
Zhuge Mou frowned, looked down, and sighed.
After a short rest, the Heavy Shields advanced again, this time twice as many as the last!
However, just like last time, even though Zhuge Mou ordered to wait and wait, these giant shield soldiers still withdrew safely.
The third time, the number increased by half again, but this half of the increase was all archers!
When they entered the range of the rocket, the heavy shield soldiers stopped solemnly, the speed became heavy and slow, holding a huge shield to cover the auxiliaries and archers behind them, and dozens of auxiliaries were prepared to prevent the carrying auxiliaries from being shot by the bow feathers and falling, and when the ladder could not move, they would play a role, and under normal circumstances, they would try to reduce the weight of the auxiliaries and help them walk quickly.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the rain of fire, and they ducked behind the heavy shieldmen.
Zhuge Mou could see that this time the other party was serious, and immediately let the archers start shooting, the fire rain covered it, and the heavy shield soldiers hid behind the shield as much as possible, allowing the arrows to make a "clanging" sound on the shield, and the flames burning on the shield.
However, no matter how much the heavy shield soldiers covered the auxiliaries, it was impossible to see all the cracks, and among the cracks into which the arrows were shot, there was not the slightest blood, only the painful roar of the auxiliaries and the scorched wounds, and they clutched the throats of the arrows with both hands, and fell down unwillingly, and soon another auxiliary took his place and lifted the ladder to continue walking.
Just after reaching the distance, the archers who had passively suffered from the fire rain finally came into play, and the rain of arrows poured down on the city walls, one by one, on the archers on the walls.
Zhuge Mou said extremely calmly: "Divided into four teams, the first team of archers is still attacking the auxiliaries, and the second team of archers is shooting the opponent's archers. The rotation time was changed to a five-minute round. ”
"Mobilize soldiers to stop the other party from erecting a ladder!"
"No." The herald gives the order now!
Lu Xun methodically dispatched soldiers to start banging on the door, and the current condition is very good, and the soldiers are not very damaged.
After a quarter of an hour of mutual struggle, the soldiers of the Zhen Kingdom finally stepped on the city wall
After attacking the city repeatedly, Lu Xun ordered the withdrawal of troops, and it seemed that he did not intend to kill the Xia Dynasty.
……
Zhuge picked up a short knife that fell on the ground expressionlessly, looked at a groove on it, frowned, turned around and ordered the herald, and then went to report to the Xia Dynasty.
When Xia Chao saw Zhuge Mou, he nodded lightly and said, "It seems that Calcium Yang City can't hold it." ”
Zhuge Mou nodded and then said to the Xia Dynasty: "Monarch, you see, this is the weapon of the soldiers of the Zhen Kingdom, which is slightly different from ordinary weapons, and the range of the bow and arrow is also much longer. ”
Xia Chao pondered slightly, and after careful observation, he nodded and said, "Yes, there should be some secrets in it." ”
ps: I'm late from work, and I'll make up for it tomorrow.;
