The cluster of arrows is firmly on the bowstring, and it is not shot, and the cluster of arrows shot out is often harmful, but it will never make people feel threatened, but if they are not shot, they are just put on the bowstring and do not fire, although it will not cause any substantial Shanghai, but it will make people psychologically threatening.

This is a very simple strategy, Shichiro is responsible for blocking Jiro God, and Rokuro shoots with a bow and arrow, although Jiro God's means are much better than Shichiro, but he is absolutely unable to kill in seconds, with Rokuro's silent archery as a threat, he can't use all his body and mind on Shichiro's body.

Usually the simpler the strategy, the more effective it is, after a long confrontation, Yang Jian suddenly turned his horse's head and took the initiative to withdraw from the battle circle, because the best opportunity to capture and kill the two has been lost, and continuing to stalemate is just a waste of time, Yang Jian doesn't like to do things that waste time.

"Second master." Zhijian stepped forward and looked at Yang Jian puzzled, because they didn't have a chance, Zhijian and Roaring Sky Dog all had the ability to drag any of them, but Yang Jian took the initiative to give up this opportunity, which made him very incomprehensible, but for what Yang Jian decided, even if the Meishan brothers had doubts, they would never ask, they believed in Yang Jian's decision.

"Let's go." Yang Jian didn't say much, commanded the army, and left with a swagger.

It wasn't until Yang Jian's army completely disappeared from sight that Liulang and Qilang breathed a sigh of relief, the pressure brought to them by this person was too great, and after seeing that Yang Jian did leave, they slowly collected their troops and returned to the city, and at the same time sent an urgent document to Luoyang.

Whether it is Yang Jian or the 500,000 army, for Xiao Guan. It's all too strenuous, and more importantly. That Yang Jian is different from Zhijian, not only is his martial arts outstanding. And the ability to command troops is not bad at all.

At the beginning of the second day, with the sound of whimpering horns, the army of the Western Regions, under the organization of Yang Jian, began to launch a ferocious attack on Xiao Pass.

The art of war pays attention to the siege of the city, the attack of the heart of the top, generally in the cold weapon battlefield, the besieging party will first think of various ways to lure the enemy out of the city for field battles, siege, is usually the last resort. Once you enter siege mode, it is usually very disadvantageous for the attacker, especially for a Xiongguan like Xiao Pass, where many soldiers' arrows can't shoot at other people's towers, and a random stone thrown on the city wall can kill a besieging soldier.

Therefore, all the famous generals of ancient and modern times, when marching and fighting. Siege is often a last resort.

In the era of cold weapons, the means of siege came and went, such as ladders, doors, bows and arrows, if conditions permitted. There will also be large siege equipment such as catapults and well fences.

Yang Jian gathered all the forces of the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions this time, and the momentum was huge, and the preparations were naturally very complete. Just facing Xiao Guan, without using supernatural powers. I want to blast open the city gate, but I still can't do it.

Xiao Guan was at the time of design. It brings together the best designers in the world, from the layout to the corresponding strategies for facing various means, as well as the surrounding terrain, all taking into account, the height of up to eight zhang alone is an insurmountable problem for the Western Regions Alliance.

Not to mention that ordinary soldiers' arrows can't shoot up, even if it's a ladder, it's difficult to reach that height, and you have to stack two ladders on top of each other to climb, while the defense of the city is very easy, the concave wall design and the slightly inclined slope can allow the archers on the city wall to shoot at the besieging enemy in all directions, and there are holes on the surface of the city wall, which contain soldiers, who can shoot the enemy who passes by from these holes, and because the potholes are very small, It is almost impossible for the siege soldiers outside to inflict damage on the defenders hiding in the hollow.

In the end, the direct result was that after one day of siege, the Western Regions coalition forces besieging the city suffered heavy casualties, while the damage to the defenders was negligible.

If it continues to be consumed according to this ratio, the first to be consumed must be the 500,000 coalition troops besieging the city, of course, if this is the case, it is estimated that before the war is halfway through, this huge Western Regions coalition army will collapse on its own.

In the coalition camp, Yang Jian listened to his subordinates' reports expressionlessly.

"Second master, if this battle continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to bear it first." Zhijian pointed to the map with some depression: "Our catapult can hit a maximum of one hundred and eighty steps, but the opponent's catapult not only has a longer range than ours, but also can hit a distance of three hundred steps with the help of the height of the city wall, and our catapult can't get close at all, let alone cover the well railing." ”

The range of a full 120 paces is missing, for the slow-moving catapults and well fences, in this 120 steps, they are almost like live targets being bombarded to death, and there is no chance to fight back, and in this day alone, there are more than a dozen catapults that were smashed during the siege of the city, and then they did not dare to push the catapult up at all, and as soon as they went up, they were killed.

"In front of Xiao Guan is a large open space, there is no cover, and the guards on Xiao Guan are very vicious, seeing that our catapult can't come up, they use the catapult to launch gravel, although there is no boulder shock, but the lethality is greater, today's damage, most of the damage is caused by the gravel thrown by those catapults." Another military general from the Western Regions who knew Chinese said bitterly.

This is an invasion, and it is strange that other people's methods are vicious?

Yang Jian glanced at the general, a touch of disdain flashed in his eyes, since he was on the battlefield, he should have the consciousness of death, and now he doesn't say how to solve it, but complains that the other party's methods are not benevolent, if there is no them, these barbarians in the Western Regions are afraid that they will not be able to break through the defense of Xiao Pass for a hundred years.

Yang Jian waved his hand, and a huge sand table appeared in front of everyone, and in the eyes of a group of Western Regions military generals, the sand table continued to squirm, gradually presenting the surrounding terrain, mountains and rivers and the outline of Xiao Pass vividly.

"Since the assault can't work, try digging a tunnel to see if you can dig a tunnel from the ground that leads directly to the interior of Xiao Pass." Yang Jian pointed to the ground and said, "In addition, here, here, we must build a one-zhang high earthen wall as a cover to advance our battle line layer by layer, so that the loss can be minimized." ”

With Yang Jian's words, the position before Xiao Guan on the sand table began to bulge with earthen walls more than three feet wide and more than one foot thick, so that even if the other party used the method of throwing gravel to fight down, it could not cause a large amount of damage, and it also wasted the attack ability of the opponent's arrow cluster, the only drawback is that if you want to build such a huge project, it is by no means possible to do it in a short time, but in the face of a Xiongguan like Xiao Guan, if the authentic method does not work, if you want to break through, it can only take time.

Ordinary stratagems will not work for two excellent generals who have experienced a hundred battles, in Yang Jian's opinion, the pair of brothers on Xiao Guan are definitely excellent in terms of conquest, and they are very good.

For this kind of enemy, the practice of quick success and quick profit, the usual result will be the opposite of the expected expectations, he is not the main attack this way, it is enough to be able to contain these two brothers, and it can greatly consume the national strength of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, even if the Shenwu is broken in the future, it will be easier for them to set things right and turn their guns to deal with these Saiwai Hu clans, so Yang Jian is not in a hurry.

Xiao Guan, the capital of the Protector's Mansion, at this moment, the Yang family brothers looked at Zhao Yun in front of them with great joy, they didn't expect Zhao Yun to rush to Xiao Guan so quickly, and they also brought 50,000 elites.

If Yang Jian is the god of war in the heavenly court, then Zhao Yun is the well-deserved god of war in the Shenwu Empire, Yang Jian's martial arts are powerful, but Zhao Yun is also good, especially after the final battle with the pseudonym Xue Feiyu, the marksmanship has broken through to a new height, for more than a hundred years, Zhao Yun's marksmanship has become more and more sophisticated, and later Zhao Yun once said frankly that if the battle of the year is repeated, he is confident that he will defeat Xue Feiyu at that time within three moves.

Zhao Yun's arrival also gave them a reassurance.

"So, there's only two people on the other side." After listening to the descriptions of the two, Zhao Yun said lightly, for the 500,000 Western Regions Alliance Army, he obviously didn't pay attention to it, and what made Zhao Yun care about it was the reincarnated immortals of the other party.

"Yes, that Zhijian is not powerful, Qilang can suppress it, but that Yang Jian is very powerful, the three-pointed two-edged knife is extremely weird, the two of us shot, and we were almost captured by him." Rokuro nodded.

"Yang Jian?" Zhao Yun nodded when he heard this, with a little excitement in his eyes.

"The marshal knows about this person?" Rokuro was surprised.

"I heard Your Majesty mention that it is the first general of the Heavenly Court, the battle of the gods, shining brightly, making great contributions to the King of Martial Arts, and also the only heavenly general who was a god in the flesh in that battle, but unfortunately, because of his background, he was not liked by the Jade Emperor." Zhao Yun nodded.

"Origin?" There was a hint of gossip in the eyes of the two brothers, Rokuro and Shichiro.

"We'll talk about that later." Looking at the appearance of the two of them, Zhao Yun smiled and said: "Since I am here, I naturally want to meet him, but Qilang, you immediately set off and rushed to Yanmen Pass to help Your Majesty." ”

"Huh?" Qilang was a little surprised when he heard this: "That Xiao Guan ......"

"Xiao Guan has me and Liulang in charge, it is enough to deal with Yang Jian and that Zhijian, but it is by Your Majesty's side, now there is only Da Lang alone, but you should know that there is the main battlefield, and it is impossible to finish the war in Xiao Guan for a while, you immediately rush to Yanmen Pass to help Your Majesty." Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "The reason is that I will write a letter later to explain it clearly to Your Majesty." ”

Now Zhuo Ao's subordinates can deal with the reincarnation of immortals, there are only six people, Xu Da was sent to Yanzhou to deal with Huang Tianxiang, Shiro assisted from the side, and he couldn't walk away for a while, and although the opponent here is difficult, but Zhao Yun has seen the war, and the next thing is a war of attrition, leaving three generals who can't defeat the Western Regions Alliance led by Yang Jian in a short time, it is better to let Qilang go to help in the battle, and he can also share some of Zhuo Ao's pressure, after all, even if Zhuo Ao is powerful, his fists are difficult to defeat with four hands, as for several queens and concubines, whether it is Zhuo Ao or Zhao Yun and others, If it is not a critical moment, I don't want to let women go to war, after all, fighting is a man's business.

"Yes." Shichiro nodded when he heard this, he preferred to charge into battle, but staying here, at least for now, it seems that there are not many opportunities like this. (To be continued.) )
