Outside the gate of the west city of Dongpingling County, there are all yellow turban troops with yellow scarves tied on their heads, a large area of black pressure, although there are men and women, old and weak, but there are many people, at a glance, it gives people great psychological pressure.

A general with a yellow scarf on his head rode out of the city, came to the city, and shouted: "Listen to the city, quickly open the city and surrender, I will spare you from death!" Otherwise, the city will be captured, and the chickens and dogs will not be left! ”

At the head of the city, Tang 5, Tang 6, Tang 7 and Tang 13 and others led soldiers and horses and waited for battle.

There were a total of 1,000 soldiers and horses at the west gate, and they divided them into two groups, a group of 500 people, who took turns to defend the city for one hour.

Among them, there is a sword and shield soldier and an archer, squatting everywhere, and there are soldiers who are responsible for throwing boulders and rolling logs, and pikemen who are responsible for patrolling and supporting, etc.

Tang Wu and Tang Liu and others learned and grew up with Tang Yun, and in addition to practicing martial arts one by one, they were also literate and proficient in the art of war, and they were all qualified generals.

Arrange the troops, no problem.

At this moment, Tang Wu took a step forward, looked at the Yellow Turban generals under the city, and said coldly: "Who is coming, report your name!" ”

"Grandpa is under the account of General Tiangong, Yang Ping, the proud disciple of Qu Shuai Xu He, is here to rescue you and others!"

The Yellow Turban General looked at Tang Wu at the head of the city, and saw that it was a young man who was not as good as the weak crown, a look of contempt appeared on his face, and he laughed loudly: "Little baby, why don't you hurry up and surrender the city?" Ben will spare you from dying! ”

Tang Wu sneered: "A group of rabble, dare to offend my city? Archers prepare, release arrows! ”

A "whoosh" sounded.

The Yellow Turban General was forced to retreat by the random arrows when he boarded, his face was full of anger, and he shouted: "You wait for me, when Ben will break through the city, you will not die well!" ”

"Herald the siege!"

The Yellow Turbans went into action.

Although the more than 10,000 Yellow Turban troops were of mixed quality, men, women and children, the weapons in their hands were also complete, and the siege equipment was also very sufficient, all of which were obtained from the county towns they had previously captured.

Dongpingling County is the county seat of Jinan, there is a battalion of 2,000 soldiers and horses to guard, unlike the rest of the county with only one 400 soldiers and horses, it can be regarded as a strong soldier.

Since Yang Ping rushed to attack the city, he naturally would not be unprepared.

The ladders were carried out by the Yellow Turban soldiers, and they quickly leaned towards the city, protected by Yellow Turban soldiers holding shields in front, and a large number of Yellow Turban soldiers pressed by black pressure in the rear.

"Don't let go of the arrows yet, wait for them to get close!"

At the head of the city, Tang Wu shouted loudly, the front row of the Yellow Turban Army was protected by shield soldiers, and at this time, although it could also kill the Yellow Turban Army, the efficiency was too small.

They only had a thousand men and horses, and every force had to be carefully calculated in order to try their best to hold the city, otherwise the city might be ruined.

After the Yellow Turban Army approached, Tang Wucai shouted again: "Release the arrow!" Shoot the Yellow Turbans in the rear! ”

"Whoosh Whoosh ......"

The archers at the head of the city shot the arrows in their hands one by one.

The Yellow Turban soldiers under the city, although they were protected by the shield soldiers in the front row, but the Yellow Turban soldiers in the back did not have shields.

And the ladders, also under the cover of the shield soldiers, were erected on the city wall, and the soldiers with yellow scarves on their heads quickly climbed up.

The archers of the Yellow Turban Army also began to reflect on the city walls.

"Knock the ladder down!"

"Archer, shoot!"

"Stones, giant trees, smash me!"

Tang Wu commanded in the center.

Tang Liu, Tang Qi, Tang Ba, Tang 13 and others also went to various parts of the city wall to personally supervise the battle.

An offensive and defensive battle begins here.

Under the command of Tang Wu and the others, after more than half an hour, not a single Yellow Turban soldier could attack the city.

Yang Ping, the general of the Yellow Turban, watched from the rear, and was also very surprised by the combat strength of the soldiers and horses defending the city in Dongpingling County.

You must know that the county towns captured before, how can it be so difficult?

Even if there were hundreds of soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty guarding it, they were all taken quickly!

Today, we have been attacking for more than half an hour, and there is not even a single person who has climbed to the top of the city! On the other hand, on the side of their Yellow Turban Army, thousands of people have already been lost! Looking at it like this, I don't know when I will be able to attack the city, and I don't know how many soldiers and horses I will lose!

"Boss, you can't rush up! What to do? The little boss next to him was also very anxious, this was the first tough battle they had encountered since the incident.

"What's the hurry?"

Yang Ping glared at the little leader and shouted: "Pass my order, whoever can be the first to rush to the city, a reward of ten gold, two beauties!" ”

"Whoa!"

The little leader received the order and ordered people to start shouting, and the first one to rush to the head of the city was rewarded with ten gold, and there were two beauties!

There is a way that there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, ten gold and two beauties, full of temptation for the Yellow Turban soldiers, this shout reached the ears of the Yellow Turban soldiers, and the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was greatly boosted.

Originally, after attacking for more than half an hour, thousands of people were lost, but none of them attacked the city, and the Yellow Turban soldiers, who were already a little depressed, climbed up the ladder one by one as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

And the bows and arrows, boulders, and rolling logs on the city have been consumed for more than half an hour, but they have been almost consumed.

"Change the guard!"

"The second team is on, and the first team is going down to the city to rest!"

Tang Wu saw that the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was boosted again, and he also gave an order decisively.

According to their original method of defending the city, they divided 1,000 soldiers and horses into two batches of 500 people, and let the two groups of people take turns to change their defenses at intervals to replenish their strength.

Now, just over half an hour has passed, less than an hour.

But he has ordered a change of guard!

Because after more than half an hour of fierce fighting, the soldiers on the city are exhausted, especially the arms of the archers, who are numb at this moment, where is there any combat power? And bows and arrows, boulders, rolling logs, etc. are almost consumed, and in the face of the morale-boosting Yellow Turban Army, I am afraid that it will suffer a big loss!

Therefore, Tang Wu decisively ordered a change of defense, just as the so-called battlefield is changing rapidly, and you can't stick to the rules and act when you have the opportunity, that's it.

In the previous battle for more than half an hour, although the five hundred soldiers and horses were damaged, they were all injured by the arrows reflected below, and the damage was not large.

And the other 500 soldiers and horses, who had already been waiting for the battle, immediately came to the city and fought fiercely with the morale of the Yellow Turban soldiers!

Since the boulders and rolling logs have been almost consumed, although there is no shortage of archers in this new batch of 500 soldiers and horses, the archers alone can no longer suppress the morale of the Yellow Turban Army.

The Yellow Turbans have begun to ascend to the top of the city!

But these Yellow Turban soldiers who climbed to the head of the city were all killed by the soldiers defending the city at the head of the city, and there were Tang Liu, Tang Qi, Tang Ba, Tang Jiu and Tang Thirteen, etc., a member of the generals with excellent martial arts, guarding everywhere, these Yellow Turban soldiers who climbed to the head of the city, where they were opponents, could only throw their lives on the head of the city.

After more than half an hour, the city is still unbreakable!

On the side of the Yellow Turban Army, thousands of lives were filled.

"Damn, why are the soldiers and horses in the city so powerful? It can actually stop the offensive of our rebel army! ”

Yang Ping looked at the impregnable city, devouring the lives of the Yellow Turban soldiers, his eyes were bloodshot, and his anger was monstrous.

Since the incident, where their Yellow Turban Army has passed, which county town has not been easily broken?

Although he knew that Dongpingling County, the seat of Jinan County, had strong soldiers and strong horses, but it was only a battalion of 2,000 soldiers and horses, Yang Ping didn't pay attention to it before, so he volunteered to ask Qu Shuai for his life and came to attack the city.

Moreover, this Dongpingling County is where the Tang family of the traitor "Tang Zhou" is located, and Tang Yun, the son of Tang Zhou, is in the city.

When Yang Ping asked Qu Shuai for his life, he claimed that he wanted to destroy the Tang family, and captured Tang Yun alive and handed it over to Qu Shuai for disposal.

At this moment, he was blocked out of the city, losing a lot of soldiers and horses, not to mention, and he couldn't break through the city, if he let Qu Shuai know about this, although he was Qu Shuai's disciple, I am afraid that the end would not be good.

For the sake of military regulations, or for the sake of prestige, Qu Shuai is afraid that he will be stabbed!

Qu Shuai's disciples are not the only one, he is dead, and naturally there are other people who take the position of his big leader.

Thinking like this, Yang Ping's expression was even more ugly, and his eyes were blood-red and asked the little leaders on the left and right: "Do you have a way to break through this city?" ”

Seeing the appearance of the big leader, the small leaders on the left and right were startled, and one of the small leaders offered a plan: "This East Pingling County is only 2,000 soldiers and horses, looking at the appearance of this West City Gate, I am afraid that most of the soldiers and horses have been transferred." ”

Seeing that Yang Ping was thoughtful, the little leader said again: "The big leader only needs to divide two teams of men and horses to take the north and south gates, even if this west gate is not broken, won't he also take this city?" ”

"Not bad."

Yang Ping nodded again and again, glanced at the little leader appreciatively, and laughed: "You still have a lot of ghost ideas!" Ben will divide two thousand, no, four thousand soldiers and horses, you and Zhou Heng are half of one person, go and take the north and south gates for me! ”

"Whoever enters the city first will be rewarded!"

"Whoa!"

The little boss who offered the plan and the other small boss Zhou Heng, who received the order with great joy, glanced at each other, and were ready to attack the city first and shoot this great achievement.

The two of them each led 2,000 soldiers and horses to the north and south gates of East Pingling County.

"Young master, the thieves are moving!"

In a forest near the official road outside the West City Gate, Tang Yida was overjoyed when he saw that the Yellow Turban Army had moved.

"Hmm."

Tang Yun nodded, the offensive and defensive battles of the past two hours, he looked at it from afar.

Tang Wu and the others did not disappoint him, and firmly held the head of the city, not letting the Yellow Turban Army take advantage of it in the slightest, but making the Yellow Turban Army feel disgraced.

And the Yellow Turban Army moved again, looking at the direction of the manpower transfer, I thought it was to see that the West City Gate could not be broken, and it was going to attack other city gates!

"Here's your chance!"

Tang Yun smiled coldly, he had been waiting for this opportunity for an hour or two.
