"Monsters, monsters."

"Hexeldom, take the blood of the black dog."

In these days, the people were still very superstitious, and they were already frightened when they saw these new things.

The strong men ran away, and the soldiers were in chaos.

The enemy is all on the city, and there are several points of breakthrough at once.

Cao Ren was full of powerlessness, this kind of ladder car is too powerful, a huge ladder to the city wall, due to the small slope, the soldiers behind are rushing up, not at all like ordinary ladders to climb up little by little.

Although the Qingzhou Army has a subsidy of 50 Wen, it really relies on the reward for fighting.

Hundreds of death squads, shirtless and with ghost-headed knives in their hands, roared up the city walls.

The methodical archers below the walls suppressed the archers on the walls under the protection of the sword and shield soldiers.

Originally, the archers on the city wall were already stunned, and now only a very small number of archers counterattacked, and they were suppressed by the archers of the Qingzhou army.

All the archers who dared to show their heads were shot to the ground, and the archers that the Qingzhou Army spent a lot of effort to train were not in vain, and they really worked at the critical moment.

When the sword and shield soldiers, pikemen, and archers also came up in the back, Cao Ren had already abandoned the eastern city wall.

It had already been arranged, Cao Ren got on the horse and led the army to assemble quickly, and a vote of men and horses went from the west gate, which really attracted the Qingzhou army.

Cao Ren took the opportunity to break through from the north gate, and thousands of troops retreated to the west, covering the mountains and fields, like soybeans sprinkled on the ground.

Zhang Liao led his army into the city and ordered hundreds of soldiers from Chen Liu's nationality to shout together: "Treat prisoners preferentially, surrender and not kill." ”

"Treat prisoners preferentially, surrender and not kill."

These soldiers raised their voices and told the remaining soldiers and strong men to put down their weapons.

Zhang Liao led his troops to control the city wall and control the four gates.

quickly stabilized the order in the city, and made Cao Ren's chaotic soldiers quickly calm down.

Extinguish the fire of war and put out the people.

Zhang Liao personally led the military discipline team to patrol the streets, but anyone who robbed the people was strictly punished.

The people in the city were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out one by one.

But Zhang Liao's army did quite well, except for the occasional individual rebels, the others were very well-behaved.

At noon, Yu Ban reported and summarized.

"Report to General Zhang, our army has completely controlled Chen Liucheng. In this battle, more than 2,000 enemy troops were annihilated and more than 2,000 were captured. The guard general Cao Ren fled with more than 6,000 soldiers, and at the same time captured more than 10,000 strong men with weapons. ”

Zhang Liao was a little hesitant, 10,000 strong men, if this is troublesome, it will be troublesome. But if they are all arrested, the productivity of the city will be much less.

"Master Yu, how do you feel about these strong men? Is it put or closed? ”

"I can't put it for the time being, tell them first, whoever performs well, put it first. Then let them repair the city walls, repair the city defenses, one after another, and then release them in five or six days. ”

"Okay, you and Guan Cheng are in charge of the city. I led 10,000 troops to support Xu Rong, and Xiahoudun was difficult to deal with. ”

Zhang Liao led 10,000 infantry out of the city and rushed to the southwest to support Xu Rong.

At this moment, Xu Rong and Xiahoudun's infantry were fighting fiercely, and the training level of the soldiers on both sides was about the same.

But the armor equipment Qingzhou army is much better, and the Xiahou army is already struggling, and Zhang Liao is angry like a mad cow when he comes, and the big iron gun in his hand rushes towards Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao met the enemy with a big gun, and the two fought in one place, fighting for more than 30 rounds without a victory.

But the army under Xiahoudun couldn't stand it, and the casualties were unbearable, so they turned around and ran.

Xiahoudun was helpless, and turned the horse's head and ran away with a scolding attitude.

Xu Rong and Zhang Liao led the army to chase for more than ten miles, and they were ambushed in fear, so they stopped the pursuit.

Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong's remnants ran for more than 100 miles, and then they gathered, merged into one, and slowly retreated.

Besides, Zhang Liao's victory in taking Chenliu County was a total loss of more than 1,000 soldiers, which can be regarded as a huge victory.

The head of the city changed the banner of the king, from Cao Cao to Lu Bu, and the people except for the panic at the beginning, how should they live next.

Moreover, Lu Bu is not without a foundation in Chenliu, Chen Gong and Dian Wei both have prestige in Chenliu.

The local wealthy families have expressed their heartfelt feelings, and as for ordinary people, it doesn't matter whether they express their stance or not.

If he can provide some relief to the people in need, Lu Bu can become the object of the people's praise and praise.

When the news came back to Jinan County, Lu Bu was very happy and gave a commendation.

Xu Rong's 18,000-strong army was left to guard Chenliu, and the other soldiers and horses returned to Jinan County.

Lu Bu stomped on his feet: "If we do the same as Cao Cao, why will the people support us?" We have to do better. ”

Immediately arranged for Chen Gong to carry out a major reform of Chen Liu's civil service system, first of all, to simplify the process and style of the yamen, and to build a government affairs center, one-stop processing, not to run back.

The second is the general rectification of public security, human traffickers, thieves, bandits, and bullies. Dozens of checkpoints were set up at major traffic crossings, and soldiers came back to patrol and keep public order at night.

In the Jinan County Armory, Lu Bu was looking at the inconspicuous little guy in front of him, this was a small iron cannon, only sixty centimeters long, fifty millimeters in caliber, weighing one hundred and sixty Han catties, with two handles on it.

There is also an iron hoop on it to reinforce the gun body, don't look inconspicuous, but this is a qualitative leap.

Dian Wei scratched his head: "Lord, although this thing is heavy, I can't take advantage of it, I don't believe it can be used in battle." ”

"This is called artillery, known as the god of war, it is difficult for the gods to hide from the smoke, since the invention of this thing, many famous generals will cry, because no matter how powerful the generals are, they can resist this cannon."

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, how powerful such an iron pipe can be."

Dian Wei lifted the small cannon with one hand, and the group came to the deserted secret test site.

The gunner carefully reloaded the gunpowder, put in a solid iron egg the size of an egg, adjusted the angle, and aimed the gun in front of him.

The torch was lit, the fuse snorted and burned, followed by a loud bang, boom, and a cloud of white smoke rose into the air.

Lu Bu pointed to the distance: "Let's go, look for the iron egg." ”

Dian Wei's ears were buzzing: "This thing is really moving. ”

The solid iron egg actually flew about 400 meters, and when it fell to the ground, it rolled for dozens of meters.

Dian Wei is no longer hard-mouthed, even if his arm strength is definitely not able to throw so far.

It's just such a gadget, and it's definitely longer than the range of a crossbow.

It's just that although the attack power of the solid iron egg is strong, it doesn't have much coverage.

In the second test, it was replaced with iron sand, and a small handful of iron sand the size of mung beans was added, about a hundred pieces.

More than a dozen scarecrows were placed more than 100 meters in front, torches were lit, and with a loud bang, half of the scarecrows fell.

At a distance of more than 100 meters, the lethality of scattered bombs is still very strong, and the range is closely related to the amount of ammunition charged.
