Chapter 206: Fierce Battle in Nanzheng City
Zhang Xiu's 26 stepped arrows out, and the 5,000 soldiers behind him didn't know whether to listen to the order of "Diao Tiyi Xiu" or to see Zhang Xiu's feather arrows shoot, and they also let go of the hand holding the feather arrows, and for a while, 5,000 feather arrows were shot out one after another.
"Woohoo,"
I saw that these five thousand arrows quickly formed a rain of arrows, although there was no momentum of ten thousand arrows when Yuan Shu was on the day, but five thousand feather arrows were shot, and Zhang Ren's department on the head of the city was completely suppressed for a while.
Zhang Ren, who was standing on top of the city, saw that the cavalry of Zhang Xiu's brigade was shooting, and his eyes clearly showed a look of disbelief. At this time, the rain of arrows had already hit, and the soldiers saw that Zhang Ren was unmoved, and shouted: "General be careful." Then he fell Zhang Ren down at once, and pressed Zhang Ren with his body to block the rain of arrows for him.
Even Zhang Ren didn't expect that Zhang Xiu's army would use the most advanced skill of mounted archery, such as running shooting, how could the soldiers expect it.
"Flutter", flutter, flutter"
"Ding, "Ding", prison,
The sound of a series of feathered arrows sinking into a person's body and the sound of feathered arrows hitting the hard stone of the city wall intertwined, forming a rhythm unique to the battlefield.
Fortunately, many of the arrow rain did not fly to the top of the city because the strength was too small, but even so, Zhang Ren's troops were attacked by this first wave of arrow rain and lost hundreds of soldiers, and many were injured.
After being knocked down by his own soldiers, Zhang Ren also came back to his senses at this time, and saw that Tai Shi Ci led the army below had already charged, and immediately realized what Tai Shi Ci was going to do, and shouted: "Raise the shield" Raise the shield, quickly.
Although his voice was not loud, the soldiers in the vicinity also heard it, and the soldiers with shields raised their shields one after another, and shrank under the shields with their companions nearby.
Some of the unshielded soldiers hid in the bunkers at the head of the city. ^^ Baidu search to read the latest chapters of this book **
The soldiers at the head of the city have done this, Tai Shi Ci has already led the army, this time Tai Shi Ci did not attack head-on like Zhang Xiu, and then bypassed from the side and returned to the back to line up.
I saw Tai Shi Ci leading the army to the city wall, and then put the feather arrow on the big bow and pulled it into a full moon. When the soldiers behind him saw it, they also drew their bows and arrows.
I only heard Tai Shi Ci shout coldly: "Release!" After that, an arrow was shot at the top of the city, and the five thousand soldiers who had already adjusted the angle released their arrows one after another, and suddenly five thousand feathered arrows were thrown at the top of the city.
Tai Shi Ci didn't look at it, and continued to take out a feather arrow from the quiver behind him, put it on top of the big bow and pulled the big bow into a full moon, and the soldiers pulled their bows and arrows again through the command of the command of the Lingqi.
I only heard Tai Shici shouting again: "Release." Five thousand feathered arrows rained down on the city again.
I saw Tai Shi Ci leading the army back and forth under the city wall, constantly holding bows and arrows, and a crisp command came out of his mouth.
"Put!" Five thousand feathered arrows were thrown.
"Put!" Five thousand feathered arrows were thrown out again,
A total of six waves of arrows were released back and forth, suppressing Zhang Ren's troops above the city so much that they couldn't raise their heads, and then Tai Shici led the army from the side to the back, and then Zhang Xiu's army attacked again. The same conical formation of 900 steps was unfolded, and 5,000 feather arrows were frontally covered by the attack, and Zhang Ren's troops who were about to make a move were beaten back.
However, each of these rounds of arrow rain was not as brilliant as the first wave of Zhang Xiu's frontal covering attack. These several shots, due to the preparation on Zhang Ren's side, were only injured in some places that could not be covered, but they were not fatal. Of course, there were a few unlucky ghosts who were shot in the vital point and died under the rain of arrows. In addition to the first round of arrow rain, the losses of the next seven rounds of attacks were not as good as the first round, but this series of arrow rain blows suppressed Zhang Ren's troops to the point that they did not dare to show their heads at all.
Seeing this, Zhang Liao knew that the time had come, and he knew that running and shooting was very consuming the physical strength of horses and people. It doesn't hurt to have a few more times in a future like him, but an ordinary soldier can only use it a few times. In addition, Zhang Xiu's 10,000 soldiers were tired, and the horses and people attacked without rest at all, Zhang Liao also knew that Zhang Xiu and Tai Shi Ci could only use one more frontal covering attack at most, and if they wanted to keep marching beside the city wall like Tai Shi Ci did before, it was unlikely. Therefore, Zhang Liao seized the fighter plane and immediately commanded the army to charge with a cloud ladder.
Seeing that Zhang Liao led the army to humble the front, Zhang Xiu once again led the army to shoot a wave of arrows at the head of the city, making some cover for Zhang Liao's department, and then the army stopped and watched Zhang Liao's siege.
Thanks to Zhang Xiu and Tai Shici leading the army to suppress the archers at the head of the city with running shots, the soldiers of Zhang Liao's department went to a very close place above the head of the city to have sporadic counterattacks.
Zhang Liao can see it. Immediately shouted: "After finishing speaking, I bit the short knife with my teeth and climbed up from the ladder that I had erected first." I saw Zhang Liao as nimble as a monkey, and rushed up the ladder quickly, rushing forward while dodging the feathered arrows falling from the city
"Drink," hah.
A group of soldiers climbed up the ladder, and Zhang Ren had already begun to command the soldiers to fight back on the top of the city. I saw a huge tree rolling down the ladder, and the soldiers of Zhang Xiu's department on the ladder were suddenly hit by the giant tree, and the whole person fell down the ladder while standing unsteadily, and fell to the hard soil under the city, and the whole head was shattered.
The soldier fell down the ladder without being seen by the soldiers behind him, and the giant log had already rolled in front of them, and the huge log smashed directly on the head of one of the soldiers due to the impact of rolling down the ladder, knocking him to the head and bleeding, and then falling down the ladder.
The impact of the giant tree was not over, the soldiers behind were hit by the giant tree, and their arms couldn't catch the cloud ladder at once, and the whole person was crushed by the giant tree and fell down the cloud ladder, and then the giant tree kept impacting, so that the whole soldier who climbed on the cloud was injured and fell down to varying degrees.
In addition to being blocked by giant trees, I also saw Zhang Ren commanding several soldiers above the city head, using the weapons in his hands to pick up a ladder, and then a soldier pushed the ladder vigorously. The entire ladder was pushed a few inches away from the city wall, but it was enough for a few inches. There was no place for force on one side of the ladder, and the whole fell to the hard soil, and even the soldiers of Zhang Xiusuo who climbed on the ladder fell to the ground with the ladder and fell to the ground with the ladder.
On the other side, I saw that the boiling oil boiled above the city head was splashed down by Zhang Ren's commanding soldiers. The boiling oil fell on Zhang Xiu's soldiers, and the burning and painful feeling suddenly caused these soldiers to let out a hoarse scream, and then the whole person fell under the cloud ladder, leaving the young life here.
The siege battle is always the most tragic, the attacker did not go to the city, it must lose a large number of soldiers, because this time there was Zhang Xiu and Tai Shici led the arrow rain suppression, so that the archers above the city head did not wave any effect, the loss has been reduced a lot, but the tragedy of the impact on the city wall is still out of Zhang Xiu's estimate.
Fortunately, Zhang Liao, with his high martial arts, took the lead in climbing the city, and the soldiers who followed him to the city also successfully climbed to the top of the city thanks to Zhang Liao's cover. Zhang Liao's side was smooth, but the other places were successfully blocked by Zhang Ren's soldiers at the head of the city. Only a few clouds of soldiers came up to the top of the city.
After Zhang Liao landed on the top of the city, he immediately picked up a short knife and slaughtered, and several soldiers who approached and wanted to kill Zhang Liao didn't know what was going on, so they felt a pain in the neck, and then it was dark in front of them, and they didn't know anything. But I saw that several heads were cut off by Zhang Liaoyong's short knife, and then I saw Zhang Liao holding a short knife in one hand, snatching the spear in the hand of the enemy's soldiers with one hand, opening the bow left and right, and the short knife in his right hand kept cutting at the approaching enemy soldiers, and the big heads were cut off; The spear in his left hand was not idle, and during the dance, the soldiers were either shot in the chest, or shot in the face, and their entire heads were stabbed, and the death was extremely terrifying.
There was a general Zhang Liao here to fight again and again, and the later siege soldiers all stood firm, no matter how many soldiers from Zhang Ren's side came, they could not force Zhang Liao and others to go down the city.
Zhang Ren, who was commanding above the city, naturally saw the crisis here, so he ordered the deputy to continue to command in his place, and he took a spear and killed Zhang Liao's side. Along the way, he saw Zhang Xiu's soldiers rushing to the city, and stabbed them down the city with one shot, making the siege even more tragic.
Seeing that Zhang Liao's side was getting bigger and bigger, Zhang Ren immediately shouted: "Get out of the way, let someone come." ”
Seeing this, the soldiers of Zhang Ren's subordinates shouted excitedly: "General." ”
Zhang Ren chuckled, the spear offensive in his hand unfolded, and a beautiful phoenix was danced out under the spear dance, and it went straight to Zhang Liao. Zhang Ren's move was very conspicuous, Zhang Xiu under the city saw it from a distance, and only heard Zhang Xiu muttering: "Phoenix Dance for nine days? It's the second junior brother. ”
Zhang Ren's momentum is so huge, how can Zhang Liao not see it. I saw Zhang Liao cut down a nearby enemy soldier with a knife, and then let go of the short knife, and the spear he grabbed with both hands met it. Let's say that Zhang Liao is proficient in knives, guns, halberds, and even swordsmanship, but he has never performed swordsmanship in front of everyone.
Due to the inconvenience of attacking the city with a big knife, Zhang Liao replaced it with a short knife. At this time, in the face of Zhang Ren's spear attack, it was a great loss to use a short weapon against it, so Zhang Liao abandoned the short knife and concentrated on using a long spear against Zhang Ren.
Zhang Liao and Zhang Xiu have known each other for a short time, and the two have been learning from each other from time to time, seeing Zhang Ren use this trick Phoenix Dance for nine days, Zhang Liao did not panic, and the spear in his hand also danced quickly, and met Zhang Ren's move.
"Dang, dang, dang" Ding "Ding" The sound of a series of weapons hitting sounded above the city, and Zhang Yi's mighty phoenix dance for nine days was blocked by Zhang Liao with moves, such as picking, pointing, and racking.
