Chapter 31 The Soldiers Descend on the City

Black clouds crush the city.

The wind was like a knife, Luo Cheng stood at the head of the city, his eyes were firmly fixed on the every move of the Jianghuai army under the black pressure under the city, and the knuckles of the silver spear were a little white.

In just one day, the port of Danyang was lost, not that Luo Cheng was inferior to Du Fuwei, but the disparity in strength was too great to be stopped, even if Shen Luoyan's strange tricks were used again and again, and he insisted until this morning, Du Fuwei's army had all gone ashore and besieged Danyang City.

Looking around, except for the Blood Wolf Army that they brought, the other members of the Haisha Gang who had just surrendered turned pale and trembled.

It is no wonder that they are the forces of the Haisha Gang in the end, although there are more than 100,000 people, they are extremely widely distributed, and it is very remarkable that they can gather thousands of people to carry out corrections, this kind of war of tens of thousands of people, where have they ever seen it.

There are 10,000 people, boundless and shoreless, standing on the city wall and looking at it, all that comes into view is the black pressure of the Jianghuai army, the spear is dazzling, as more than a dozen siege vehicles and catapults like wild beasts are unloaded from the big ship and reassembled, that strong sense of oppression, even if standing next to Luo Cheng, several generals who have experienced the battle with Li Zitong are breathing a little abnormal.

Compared with Du Fuwei's Jianghuai army, Li Zitong's military appearance is really a little shabby, this is not a difference in numbers, to talk about the number of people, Li Zitong attacked with an army of 90,000 at the beginning, and in terms of the number of people, it was much more than the Jianghuai army.

But in the Jianghuai army, there is a fierce murderous spirit that Li Zitong's army does not have, which has been tempered by strict training and actual combat, in comparison, Li Zitong's army is really a peasant army.

Du Fuwei's battlefield has always been in the Central Plains, not only to face the army of the Sui Dynasty, but also countless anti-kings against him, although it is difficult, but he walked out step by step, bringing out a terrifying elite division, on the other hand, in addition to the blood wolf army, although there are many other Haisha gangs, but one by one has lost their hearts, Luo Cheng has reason to believe that if once the Jianghuai army rushes to the city wall, these people who do not have much sense of belonging to Lu Bu will definitely turn against each other.

We must find a way to boost morale, otherwise, I am afraid that we will not even be able to survive today.

Luo Cheng and Shen Luoyan couldn't help frowning, for a while, it was impossible to think at all, if the fighting generals could win, they would indeed be able to stimulate morale, but Du Fuwei was no better than Li Zitong, and there were quite a few fierce generals under him, not to mention others, just Du Fuwei's righteous sons, all of them were second-rate to first-class good players, in their own army, except for Lu Bu, Luo Cheng, Zuo Xiaoyou, and Lu Feng, no one was invincible, not to mention that there was also a Du Fuwei.

The sound of the really sweet war drums sounded, and the black sword and shield hand held the sword and shield step by step slowly and firmly in the direction of the city, although it was slow, but every step seemed to be stepping on the heart of a person.

Luo Cheng's face couldn't help but change, Du Fuwei obviously knew the situation in the city, and chose to use this method to use the momentum to crush the spirit of these newly surrendered troops.

Sure enough, as the army approached, dozens of arrows shot out crookedly, but they did not cause any damage, Luo Cheng's eyes were cold, if it goes on like this, there is no need to fight this battle.

Fiercely pulled off a carved bow from behind, sharp eyes, staring closely at the opponent's military formation, his right hand suddenly loosened, the arrow cut through the void, poof, submerged into the opponent's frontmost handsome flag, the internal force contained in the arrow suddenly exploded, and the entire flagpole was broken.

Seeing Luo Cheng showing his might, the soldiers at the head of the city couldn't help cheering in unison, the originally depressed atmosphere was buffered, morale was restored, and the originally stiff movements became crisp and neat.

"General Luo is brave, I'm afraid he is not under Lu Bu." Shen Luoyan looked at Luo Cheng with a smile, and sighed sincerely, although there are many fierce generals in Wagangzhai, there are few handsome talents like Luo Cheng, Xu Shiji is counted as one, and Li Mi is also counted as one, but in addition, it is difficult to find such talents.

"If the eldest brother is here, the port will not be lost, and even Du Fuwei may have withdrawn from the army." Luo Cheng shook his head, Shen Luoyan glanced at Luo Cheng in some surprise, she could see from Luo Cheng's expression that Luo Cheng was not modest, so Lu Bu was really so powerful?

Although he knew that Lu Bu was the best in the world, because he was a captive before, he had no chance to fight side by side with Lu Bu, so Shen Luoyan did not know Lu Bu's ability as deeply as Luo Cheng.

"Click~Boom~Boom~Boom~"

Without waiting for the people on the city wall to breathe a sigh of relief, more than a dozen catapults had already arrived at the designated position, and began to roar and launch stones in the direction of the city, and stones the size of millstones were smashed down in the air, although the damage caused was limited, but the sense of oppression was a great challenge to the morale of the army and morale.

A soldier couldn't dodge, and was smashed to the ground by a stone the size of a grinding plate, and was instantly smashed into a meat patty.

"Puff~"

An arrow shot in the air, directly nailing the soldier to the city, Luo Cheng withdrew the carved bow in his hand, and said in a cold voice: "Those who retreat from the battle, behead!" ”

Just this arrow, it will deter the surrounding soldiers, although afraid, but retreat is also a dead end, for a while, but they can still guard their posts, but Shen Luoyan knows that this is only temporary, if you can't get rid of the threat of catapults, morale will collapse sooner or later, if tens of thousands of people flee at the same time, even if Luo Cheng has the ability to reach the sky, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky.

Danyang City used to belong to the position of three regardless of the situation, although there were officials, but the management of the city was in the hands of the Haisha Gang, although there were equipment to defend the city, but giant equipment such as catapults had already been sold, so that now in addition to bows and arrows, the defenders of the city have no other long-range attack means.

If you want to stop the catapult, you can only shoot the rope or machine bracket on it, but the catapult is a hundred steps away from the city wall, Luo Cheng tried a few times, but he couldn't shoot, so he had to give up.

At this time, the Jianghuai army has approached the city, a cloud ladder on the city wall, the surrounding Jianghuai army methodically climbed to the city wall, with Luo Cheng's order, countless arrows rained, up and down the city wall, soon stained red with blood.

"General Luo, if this continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive three hours, and the other party will be able to break through the city wall!" Shen Luoyan slashed the throat of a general who rushed to the city wall with a sword, flew to Luo Cheng's side, and said in a deep voice.

Luo Cheng nodded silently, frowning, at this time, he really couldn't think about it, if he couldn't see the turnaround, he could only abandon Danyang City.

The blood wolf army in the city is the elite of the army, and Lu Bu is precious and can't die in this meaningless battle to defend the city.

"General, look! It's the lord! Suddenly, an exclamation sounded beside him, Luo Cheng and Shen Luoyan looked back at the same time, and saw Lu Bu riding alone under the city, rushing into the Jianghuai army, causing a stirring in the army.

Riding like flying, the snowy Fang Tian painting halberd shook out a halberd flower full of fluttering, where it passed, people turned over on their backs, blood flowed like a river, soon, Lu Bu rushed to a trebuchet, volleyed a halberd down, the gang qi overflowed, the huge trebuchet and several strong men who were behind the trebuchet, all of them were cut in two by this halberd.

Standing at the head of the city, Shen Luoyan frowned and looked at the military formation of the Jianghuai army under the city, and at the same time there were huge waves in her heart, she was a person who was well versed in the art of war, at this time, she actually saw the most incredible scene, with the deepening of Lu Bu, the formation of the Jianghuai army was driven by Lu Bu intentionally or unintentionally, and gradually became scattered, and even pushed each other.

How is this possible!?

Even though Shen Luoyan was facing the pressure of tens of thousands of troops before, his face was still calm, but at this time, he was filled with boundless surprise and shock.

Riding alone to charge the formation, in the world, there are probably not many people who can do it, but it is not nothing, but that refers to breaking through, and like Lu Bu, with the power of one person, the formation of thousands of troops and horses around him, not only needs peerless force as support, but also must be proficient in the art of war battle array, on the battlefield, ever-changing, must understand the weaknesses of each battle array, and be able to adapt in the shortest possible time, criticize the situation, and most importantly, must have a vision to control the overall situation!

For example, the current Shen Luoyan, standing high at the head of the city, the battle array below is changing, and it is clear at a glance, but how did Lu Bu see it!? In the midst of thousands of troops, every second, you have to face open guns and arrows from all directions, and at the same time, you have to watch the changes in the formation and find the flaws in the shortest possible time.

This...... Is it human beings who can do it?

At this moment, Shen Luoyan finally understood why Luo Cheng was so talented, but he still deeply admired Lu Bu, his extraordinary personality charm, very suitable for martial artists, peerless martial arts can quickly establish personal prestige in the army, and on the battlefield, he can be called terrifying intuition, keen insight into flaws, so that he can be called invincible on the battlefield!

"Roar Roar Roar~"

Another trebuchet was smashed by Lu Bu, and on the city wall, whether it was the newly joined Haisha Gang or the Blood Wolf Army, they were all wildly waving their weapons, shouting as hard as they could, and with Lu Bu's continuous tossing and turning, they clashed back and forth in the Jianghuai army like entering a no-man's land, and the morale and military spirit of the city head had slowly improved.

In particular, the trebuchets like wild beasts were destroyed by Lu Bu one by one, which made the soldiers at the head of the city enthusiastic, and some powerless counterattacks gradually became fierce, and the offensive of the Jianghuai army was completely suppressed, and the rolling stones and sassal trees were smashed down from the city wall like a storm, and the corpses under the smashed city wall were all over the field, and the attack of the Jianghuai army could no longer continue.

"Roar!"

Destroying the last trebuchet, Lu Bu suddenly raised the Fang Tian painting halberd, raised his head to the sky and roared, there seemed to be an invisible energy around him spreading to the surroundings, and the Jianghuai army around Lu Bu turned on his back for a while.

"Kill!"

With Lu Bu's roar, on the side of the battlefield, an earth-shattering shout of killing suddenly sounded.
