Chapter 1020: Go to war
Lu Bu ordered the siege of the city, countless people and horses rushed up, this time he made extremely adequate preparations, siege vehicles, ladders and other siege equipment are not bad, all of them were used at this moment, which suddenly increased Zhang Fan's pressure, but also fortunately, the main force of Jizhou is very strong, the archers are the best among the archers, and now there is Huang Zhong leading, the attack power that broke out is not ordinarily strong, so that it can be suppressed remotely and delay the process of Lu Bu's attack.
"Burst archers, aim at those storming carts for me!" Zhang Fan shouted.
In the siege war, the defender must first destroy the siege equipment such as the city cart and the well, which is the greatest threat to the defender, once the city gate is broken and the city wall is destroyed, the whole city will become a leaky rice tank, and it will be difficult to hold on to it when the time comes.
The attack speed of the burst archer is not fast, and it is difficult to form a long-term effective suppression, but the concentrated explosive power is extremely strong, and the attack will produce an explosive effect, and under Huang Zhong's bonus, more than 100 people can destroy a city rush car with a salvo, such an attack power is really shocking, and it is worthy of being a special class.
Arrows cost money, but they are also the most effective offensive weapons in the era of cold weapons, the archer troops of the Jizhou army are Zhang Fan's focus on training, and the number is extremely large, and they shoot indiscriminately on the city wall, and the coalition army suddenly suffered heavy losses, and the offensive is sluggish.
"Rush forward! Whoever dares to take a step back will be killed! ”
Lu Bu's face was cold and his tone was tyrannical, but the army under his command had an extremely high bonus, the speed was fast, the offensive was wave after wave, and the number of coalition troops was too large, after all, someone still took the ladder and climbed up.
This time it was Zhang Fan's turn to be uncomfortable, and the state was not his base camp, there was a shortage of all kinds of materials to defend the city, and there were not many rolling wood and stones, and in the face of the ladder, he could only push it by hand and cut it with weapons, but in this way, the soldiers would also be exposed to the attack range of the coalition archers, casualties were inevitable, and from time to time the Jizhou soldiers were lost and shot, so they lost their lives, and the scene was extremely tragic.
"Damn!"
Zhang Fan gritted his teeth fiercely, blood is always indispensable in war, but what lord wants to see his subordinates sacrificed? Heroic or not, worthwhile or not, death is always heart-wrenching and hopeless.
The golden knife light flashed, Zhang Fan fought on the front line, the sturdy ladder could not stop his blade, and it was broken when he crossed it, but his strength alone was limited after all, the preparation of the coalition army was too sufficient, the ladder was one after another, and he didn't want money to go up, and the soldiers climbed one after another, and he climbed like a dying, such a scene made people panic from the bottom of their hearts, and it was also the truest portrayal of the battlefield.
Zhao Yun and Sun Ce each guarded a city wall, Yan Liangwen and Chou guarded one side together, the pressure on their side was slightly less, Lu Bu obviously regarded Zhang Fan's side as a breakthrough, and frantically carried out a fierce attack, this kind of onslaught does not care about casualties, as long as the city can be captured, it is worth paying no matter how much value it takes.
Zhang Fan's brows gradually wrinkled, what he didn't like the most was the battle to defend the city, this was purely a meat grinder, no matter how elite the soldiers were put in, there would inevitably be casualties, after all, the defense of the city is different from the field war, as long as the field battle is fierce, it is easy to make the opponent's morale drop greatly, and the defeat is like a mountain, but the defense of the city is difficult to do, both sides are real hard rush, although the casualties of the attacking side are always greater than the defenders, but the number of the coalition forces is too much, and it is not known who wins and who loses in the end.
Under the city walls, many of the leaders of the player forces that were defeated last time appeared on the scene, and Shen Yu, the Doomsday King, and others stood with sneers on their faces, the humiliation of the previous time, this time it must be returned!
Zhang Fan's gaze wandered in the crowd, and his brows became tighter and tighter, because he didn't find Zhuge Liang!
Compared with Lu Bu, Zhang Fan is obviously more taboo about Zhuge Liang, this person is full of scheming, and it is possible to fall into the Tao if he is not careful, and such a person is actually gone, who knows what small actions he is doing in secret?
"Zhuge Wolong, why do you want to help the coalition army? Liu Bei has the grace of knowing you and saving your life, and he died indirectly at the hands of Liu Xie, it stands to reason that you should hate Liu Xie, but why do you want to help? ”
Zhang Fan couldn't figure out what Zhuge Liang was thinking, and the only explanation was that Zhuge Liang was simply targeting himself, but this person was too confident, did he think he had the strength to help Liu Wei rise?
"Yes! If this is the case, Zhuge Liang will definitely let me and the coalition army lose both, so that he will have room to operate! ”
Zhang Fan didn't know what to say, the misunderstanding between him and Zhuge Liang was too deep and too deep, his behavior Zhang Fan couldn't explain clearly, Zhuge Liang wanted to help Liu Bei avenge and wanted to help the Han family, and he obviously regarded Zhang Fan as a person who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes like Cao Cao, first to eradicate himself, and then rely on means to rise Jizhou, and support Liu Wei to fight against Liu Xie!
This is the situation that Zhang Fan doesn't want to face the most, but it is the only reason to talk about it at present, if this is the case, Zhuge Liang has really laid out a big game of chess, he can't let Lu Bu win, and it is impossible for him to let himself win, standing on the edge He wants to rise in this battle, it is really difficult and dangerous!
Zhang Fan has to admit that Zhuge Liang has the capital to rise, he has two peerless generals by his side, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and he has unparalleled wisdom, it is easy to develop his own power, if Zhuge Liang has the heart to stand on his own, he is definitely an enemy more terrifying than Cao Cao!
Sighing again and again in his heart, Zhang Fan felt that he had fallen into a bottomless quagmire, and a pair of invisible hands pulled him down, he once thought he was very strong, but now it seems that this is not the case, it is still too difficult to face the world alone with the power of one person.
"The eldest husband travels thousands of miles with a sword, although he is the enemy of the world, what is he afraid of?"
However, Zhang Fan is no longer the original Zhang Fan, now he has the heart of the strongest, although the road ahead is bumpy, although the enemy is strong, he is also confident to break them one by one, and finally set foot on the peak!
"Lay down your life to accompany the gentleman! In that case, then I'll have a good time with you! ”
Zhang Fan's eyes flashed: "Play a big game!" ”
Thinking of this, he completely settled his mind, no matter what the other party's plan was, the soldiers would block the water and cover the earth, and now he was standing here, no one could knock him down!
"Come on! Let's fight! ”
The golden sword light flashed, Zhang Fan fought on the front line, and the black pressure followed him at all times, and now there have been coalition soldiers stepping on the city wall, but these people are undoubtedly unlucky, the front foot just stepped up, and the next moment there was a sword on the body, the city wall was guarded by Jizhou ace, the tiger guard and the lion spear army, the two armies cooperated with each other, vowing not to let the enemy occupy the city wall!
The war has entered a white heat.
