"Report, General, the thief army has advanced to the Huanyang River in a big way and is rushing to build a pontoon bridge. ”

On April 20, the sixth year of Jian'an, at the end of the hour, in the lobby of the city guard mansion that was dangerously desecrating the city, Yang Yi was discussing city defense matters with several henchmen, but he listened to a rush of footsteps, and a sweaty military marquis had already rushed to the hall, and he nodded to Yangyi on one knee, and reported in a hurry.

"Shhh...... Send the order: send more detectives, and probe again!"

A few days ago, the sentinel sent by Yangyi to investigate in western Liaoning had just reported that the Youzhou cavalry was scattering to pacify all parts of western Liaoning, and Yangyi thought that he would have more than ten days to prepare, but he never expected that the Youzhou army would be killed so quickly, and he couldn't help but gasp.

"No!"

Hearing that Yang Yi's tone was not good, the ranger marquis who came to report did not dare to delay in the slightest, and hurriedly retreated from the hall after agreeing to the promise.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since the thief army has arrived, I am afraid that the fierce battle is just around the corner, and I ask you to return to your headquarters immediately, transfer all the armies, and speed up the construction of the city fortifications, and there must be no slackness. ”

Yang Yi is a veteran in the army in the end, although he is a little less courageous, but the experience of the battle array is not bad, and when the big war is approaching, he has no intention of holding any more seminars, so he immediately issued a general order and beat all the henchmen away......

"Woo, woo, woo......"

The time when the Youzhou army arrived at the dangerous city was much earlier than the soldiers of the Liaodong Army expected, no, it was just after noon, and the smoke and dust were already billowing up on the horizon in the distance, although it was still not clear to see the true face of the Youzhou army, but just looking at the scale of the smoke and dust, it could be known that the enemy was no less than 100,000, and the alarmed city head sentries even frantically sounded the horn of urgency.

"Bastard, even if the thief army wants to attack the city, it will be tomorrow, you are so panicked, don't hurry up and close the city gate, pull up the drawbridge, all departments speed up the repair progress, and those who dare to delay will be killed!"

Wan Tao, the guard of the west gate of the dangerous city, was resting in the city gate tower, and he heard the chaos outside, when he was awakened, he couldn't take care of his own armor, and he jumped out of the city gate tower shirtless, and strode to the city plate, and looked into the distance, and his eyes couldn't help flashing a little panic, obviously he was taken aback by the strength of the Youzhou army, but he saw that all the soldiers under him were frightened, and Wan Tao had to pretend to be calm and roared, and finally suppressed the commotion at the head of the city.

"The whole army stops, camp on the spot!"

Wan Tao really didn't expect to be wrong, at the end of the card, the Youzhou army rushed to the distance of about two and a half miles in front of the city, and then no longer forced forward, with Gongsun Ming's order, in addition to more than 10,000 cavalry leading horses in front of the formation to wait for the enemy, hundreds of thousands of troops soon on the spot, chopping wood and logging are busy non-stop, at the same time, the repair of the fortifications on the city is also in full swing, for a time the sound of ping pong in the city and under the city is non-stop......

"Knock, knock......"

Let Wan Tao say it again, the next morning, the sun has not yet risen, the Youzhou army camp has sounded a tight war drums, even if you see the left, middle and right three battalions of the camp door at the same time burst open, a large number of Youzhou army stepped on the drum beat and came out, pushing all kinds of siege equipment to the dangerous city to go down, less than three quarters, the three siege troops have been the west, north, south of the city of the danger of the city are all surrounded by water, only the east facing the Liao River is not surrounded, but there are a large number of cavalry from time to time in the north, Swimming in the south and two directions, the defenders suddenly came out of the east gate.

"Don't panic, my city defense is strong, and the wood and rolling stones are abundant, if the thief army can attack it, it will cheer up Lao Tzu, so that the thieves in Youzhou can see the majesty of my Liaodong soldiers." ”

Wan Tao said yesterday that the Youzhou army would come to attack the city today, but he just said it in passing, but he never thought that he would really let him say it, not only that, but the focus of the Youzhou army's attack really fell on the east city he guarded, and at this time, while secretly regretting his crow's mouth, he also had to pretend to be ruthless, and cheered for his soldiers loudly.

"Let's get started. ”

Wan Tao's cheering seemed to have a little effect, and a sparse battle horn soon sounded on the city, and Gongsun Ming didn't bother to pay attention to this, so he just calmly issued the general order for the general attack.

"The thief army is coming, hurry, all battalions are ready for war, prepare for war!"

With Gongsun Ming's order issued, a tight drum beat immediately sounded in the Youzhou army array, and soon, the three thousand infantry soldiers lined up in a neat phalanx and began to move forward, but the degree was not very fast, but Wan Tao did not dare to be careless at all, and shouted tightly.

"Bang, bang, bang......"

Just when the defenders of the city head were on alert, more than 30 counterweight heavy trebuchets in front of the Youzhou army array and more than 100 light trebuchets equipped in front of the array began to roar almost at the same time, but listening to the sound of the machine spring, one by one the stone bullets whistled and smashed to the city, the momentum was very huge, but unfortunately the accuracy was not very good, more than 130 stone bullets, only less than 20% of them really smashed on the city, although it caused some losses to the defenders, but it was really not big, and only one soldier who could not avoid it was killed by the stone bullets that jumped around, and the other two were injured, compared to more than 2,000 defenders and peopleThe damage is almost negligible.

"Don't move, hide it, put the thief infantry closer and fight!"

Although he was frightened by the huge power of the more than 30 heavy trebuchets of the Youzhou Army, when he saw that the accuracy of these trebuchets was so poor, Wan Tao's tense heartstrings immediately loosened slightly.

"Bang, bang, bang......"

Wan Tao wanted to wait for the Youzhou Army infantry to rush up, but unfortunately the Youzhou infantry not only did not rush, but stopped at a distance of more than 80 steps from the city, and at this time, the Youzhou Army trebuchet troops that had completed the verification began to roar again, and this time it was not a stone bullet that was fired, but a fire pot one by one- The jars are very ordinary, and the appearance is similar to that of ordinary wine jars, but the mouth of the jar is very small, all of which are blocked with rags, and before the shooting, all the elongated rags have been ignited, in addition, I can't see that this batch of fire jars is very strange, at least in Wan Tao's opinion, he didn't even deliberately tell his soldiers to be vigilant, so indifferent to watch those fire jars fall from the sky in a hurry......
