Chapter 130: Mechat

Lejin is mentally prepared for being trapped in Xiangyang.

But when I was trapped in Xiangyang, I was bombarded by a huge ship, which was really a bit unexpected.

Looking for the gap, the corpse of the pro-soldier had been retracted, and the giant spear that killed the pro-soldier was also carefully removed, and was held in his hand by Le Jin, silent.

It is a little difficult to hold it as a gun in your hand, such a huge thing can shoot out of Guan Yu's boat, and it can be nailed into the wall through the strength of the four people.

Lejin has one thought in his heart: it is beyond the reach of human beings.

Looking around, this volley of giant ships did not cause many casualties, but it really shot morale to the bottom.

Lejin is at the forefront every time he fights, and what he is good at is always to capture the flag and break the city first.

And now...... It was impossible for him to drag a small boat over and row the boat towards Guan Yu, right?

For a while, I was a little secretly hated: they are all horsemen, what are you going to do to study the sailors?

And what means did Liu Bei have to let Jiangdong build such a huge boat for him?

This Sun Hou sent Liu Bei to send Jiangling to send his sister to send a giant boat, why didn't he send Jiangdong to Liu Bei?

However, complaining is complaining, Xiangyang City still has to be defended.

To the relief of the Xiangyang army, after a salvo that day, the giant boat approached Fancheng.

Although Fancheng is a brother city, it is better to torture brothers than to torture yourself.

But if Fancheng is broken, then Xiangyang may not be far away, so the mood of the Xiangyang defenders is quite wonderful.

Even some of the soldiers didn't dare to look at their generals anymore.

Lejin took this to heart, so he patrolled the city more frequently.

He is also looking for a fighter, a fighter that can boost morale and unite people.

As for Fan Cheng, he really can't take care of it.

Zhao A didn't understand Lejin's feelings, he just felt that this was not the same as the war he imagined.

When I was a child, I heard the old man talk about the war in Ziguicheng, but at that time it was the Yellow Emperor who fought Chi You, and the old people said that it was wonderful, which made Zhao A fascinated for a while.

But later, after Li Gong escaped, the war he talked about made Zhao A's scalp numb when he grew up.

Cutting off ears and counting merit, killing people and slandering thieves, forcibly capturing Tuntian, and slaughtering cities, slaughtering cities, and slaughtering cities.

And after entering General Guan's sailor by chance, Zhao A felt ......

It's a tiring battle.

During the day, he had to stay in the cabin and pedal the car, and at night he had to board a small boat to transport the terrifyingly large crossbow arrows between Dangyang and Fancheng.

Listening to Pao Ze, when this giant ship fired a salvo, it was even more terrifying than General Zhang's roar, but unfortunately Zhao A had never seen it.

It was only at night that he had admired the sleeping ship from afar.

Huge, quiet, and murderous.

Zhao Ah likes it a little, doing errands on it during the day and sleeping on it at night, just like the new home of himself and the robes.

The daughter-in-law who was worried about when he returned to Zi is now Zhao A is no longer in a hurry, and now he is worried about learning how to maintain the big three bows, because then the monthly money can be another hundred.

The Great Three Bows is the name given to the ballistas by the soldiers, because it is three giant bows stacked on top of each other, the name is simple and easy to remember, and it is not so difficult to write.

In this tiring life day after day, one day Zhao A was pedaling below, and he heard someone cheering above:

"The city is broken! The city is broken! ”

In fact, Zhao Ah didn't know what Fan Cheng was like now, but it didn't prevent him from cheering together.

Because the city is broken, and if there is merit, there will be a reward.

So that night, when Zhao A and Pao Ze sailed to Dangyang to get arrows again, they set off from Fancheng with a boatman full of people tied together.

It was only at this time that Zhao A saw Fancheng clearly, its side along the river had almost become a hedgehog, the city wall was broken several corners, and there was a mound of earth underneath, which could be easily climbed.

The face of the person with his hands tied together was depressed and uneasy, and he was terrified of the giant ship, but Zhao Ah didn't care about it.

Because he suddenly remembered and forgot to ask the chief, who will pay for the boat that sent this group of people to Dangyang?

Zhao A's disappointment because he couldn't collect the money for the boat, Guan Yu didn't know.

The unusually conspicuous general was standing on Fancheng at the moment, admiring the big boat lying quietly on the river.

"It's still hard to storm the city." Guan Yu said in a low voice: "Ballistae are powerless against such a fortified city, whether it is the city wall or the city gate. ”

Xu Shu pointed at Guan Yu and laughed:

"Such a fortified city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack is already unbelievable in seven days, and General Guan is still dissatisfied."

Guan Yu looked very serious:

"Xiangfan has no boat, the giant boat can reach close and aim at the head of the city wall to shoot, facing a side where no one dares to defend the city wall, seven days down is extremely slow."

Xu Shu didn't refute, stretched out his head and looked at it:

"It's just that I didn't expect to be able to nail the city wall with crossbow arrows and climb up."

Due to engineering technology, the base of this rammed earth wall can be five or six meters thick, and the higher you go, the narrower it becomes, so standing on the top of the wall, the wall is an extremely steep slope.

At this time, it is full of crossbow arrows, and it can be dragged as a basis to easily climb up to the city.

Keeping this thought in mind, Xu Shu turned around and smiled:

"If Yun Chang flooded the Seventh Army and could attack any city in Xiangfan, I am afraid the outcome would be very different."

Guan Yu didn't make an evaluation, sighed and talked about another topic:

"Then Fancheng will be repaired by military divisions?"

Xu Shu nodded, this was also said in advance, he watched Guan Yu step by step down the city tower, then put the glaive knife aside, leaned over and picked up the corpse of a Jingzhou soldier and sent it to a Guan Ziqi.

Dozens of corpses have been placed here, and some soldiers have sent these robes back to the ship one by one in a cart, and eventually they will be transported back to Gangneung for burial.

Xu Shu sighed faintly, the defenders of Fancheng were only 10,000 people, and it was a thorn history organization that had been beheaded to defend the city.

At Xu Shu's suggestion, he took advantage of the huge ship to shoot at Fancheng indiscriminately for four days before going ashore, and then built a mound, and then led the siege by General Guan.

With the might of the giant boat, more than 200 people were killed and nearly 8,000 were captured, which was already an unimaginable victory.

But in the end, it was still the small people who died in a foreign land, and it was all the Han people who fought with the Han people.

patting his face and temporarily suppressing these "behind-the-scenes sequelae", Xu Shu immediately shouted loudly to organize the soldiers to repair Fancheng, and then they were going to fight an unprecedented battle here.

Clean up Fancheng and wait for Cao Jun.

And for Cao Cao, this year's bad news is really one after another.

The first thing he did when he moved to Xu Du was to use a few heads to simply and rudely suppress the little emperor's undesirable thoughts, although this move made Xun Yu, who had been handling affairs in Xu Du, quite complaining.

But Cao Cao couldn't care about Xun Yu's feelings anymore, because several military reports from Xiangfan reached him.

Fan Cheng was lost, and Yu Ban's question was sent back along with this news: Do you still want to support Fan Cheng?

And after a brief analysis of the news and information sent back, Cao Cao was a little annoyed, and asked you to Le Wenqian to defend Xiangyang, and did not let the grain and grass and reserve troops from Fancheng be stationed in Xiangyang!

Although it was right from the idea at the time, but now Fancheng has been lost in just seven days, isn't it your Lejin's problem, is it still the problem of the decapitated assassin Shi?

Although scolded, at least Xiangyang must be difficult to lose, so there is a reason to support Fancheng.

At this time, Cao Cao's feelings are even more complicated, both happy and worried.

The joy and worry are the same thing: he Cao Cao's judgment of Guan Yu is correct.

So after Xu Du studied the situation, there were elite cavalry from Xu Du to the north, to go to Yecheng to transfer troops and grain.

In addition to the garrison of Xudu, which had to leave a city defense, the rest were also exhausted and rushed to the battlefield of Fancheng.

Although the grain and grass were only enough to last for more than 20 days, Cao Cao was not very worried.

Since the beginning of the army, this is not the first time that we have faced a similar situation, and we have had sufficient experience.

And...... Cao Cao looked at the secret letter in his hand, and his face was a little questioning:

"Liu Bei is in Yizhou, so they are willing to unite and welcome Liu Jiyu back to Yizhou, so they ask me for help?"

Xun Yu nodded and said:

"Yizhou's surname is contemptible, and this united generation is even more contemptible."

A disdainful word exhausts Xun Yu's views and attitudes towards the so-called surname in Yizhou.

Cao Cao felt that he was not disdainful at all, and almost without thinking, this secret letter was handed to Xun You:

"Send it to Hebei, they should know what it means."

This is to offer food with a big surname, Cao Cao was worried that he couldn't find a reason before, but Liu Bei's move helped him.

This group of big surnames simply regards real estate as more important than their own sons, how can they easily give up people?

And another secret letter......

"Sun Quan faced Guan Yu's troops, but there was no movement, and he increased his troops in Jiangxia?"

Cao Cao pondered the taste, and only felt that this south was becoming more and more interesting.
