Chapter 209: The Siege of the City
"Twenty thousand, how is it possible? Half of the Jiaozhi soldiers are here, is there a main force in Jiangdong? β
Lejin was a little confused.
3,000 people defend 10,000 people, relying on Guangxin City's strong food, it is no problem, but 3,000 to defend 30,000, the enemy army is three times their own, but it is completely different.
His forehead was thumping, he put on his armor, and when he came to the front, he saw that the number of enemy soldiers had increased again.
Before, it was a team of 10,000 people resting, but now it has become three.
In addition to the previous "Jiang" flag, the remaining two are the "Ling" flag and the "Han" flag.
"Han Dang, Ling Tong."
Chen Zhi frowned and introduced.
In the Battle of Chibi, he had fought with Ling Tong several times, and knew that this person was very brave, and Han Dang was a veteran in the Jiangdong Army second only to Cheng Pu and Huang Gai.
Obviously, the Jiangdong Army brought a lot of generals to Jiaozhou this time, and they seemed to be determined to win this Guangxin City.
Chen Zhi's brows furrowed, but his thoughts were interrupted by the crisp voice next to him.
"Are these two awesome?"
Ah Si asked with big eyes.
Hearing this girl's question, Chen Zhi smiled bitterly and shook his head, he has been getting along with Ah Si for the past few days, and he knows that this brutal talented woman actually has a bad personality, and that day it was just Yang Ling insulting Beifu.
If it is said that the Jiangdong Army is not powerful, on his side, after all, he has the support of these equipment in Beifu.
Others don't know, and he doesn't know what these devices do?
Although it is not guaranteed to defeat the enemy, it is enough to kill the enemy and abandon their armor.
Thinking of this, he suddenly became heroic, and said to Ah Si heartily: "Come one to kill one, come three, kill three!" β
Just happened to be happy to come in, laughed and said, "Yes, just kill three!" β
The two looked at each other, and there was a bit of a hero's past cherishment.
They didn't notice that a dark eye looked at them, it was Yang Ling who was stationed at the city gate and looking at the city wall.
As Le Jin speculated, he Yang Ling really didn't dare to do something like opening the city gate that would harm the family, but he felt that he had to have a result in this battle in order to block the mouths of those people.
With his professional skills, he doesn't believe that he can't achieve anything.
β¦β¦
When Han Dang's team arrived, Ling Tong's department had already moved forward.
Together with Jiang Xinbu, the three parts formed a "product" shape and slowly moved forward.
LΓΌ Meng knew the importance of morale, so he put the Ling Tong Division, which had a rest after arriving, in front, and the Jiang Xin Division, which had just arrived, and the Han Dang Division, who had just arrived, in the back.
It was said to be moved, because it was still far away from the place where the big battle had just taken place, and no one had cleaned up the blood stains on the ground, and hundreds of corpses were still lying there.
Lu Meng followed Ling Tong this time, and the route he chose deliberately bypassed the battlefield just now, so as not to make any more trouble when these soldiers saw the corpses.
But Lu Meng himself kept looking at the side, and when he was almost to Bai Shu's corpse and Jiang Xin's horse, he immediately shouted to stop.
Ling Tongbu had already received an order, how to attack the city this time, first conveyed, the general shouted to stop, but quickly stopped.
Lu Meng squinted his eyes and looked at the city, but he still couldn't see that the enemy army had a dozen or so old generals who could draw three-stone bows.
He bit his lip, a little nervous, he was not Zhou Yu after all, and he couldn't command Ruoding.
Ling Tong glanced at him in surprise, as a young Zhuang faction in the Jiangdong Army, his relationship with Lu Meng was actually not bad, this was the first time he had seen Lu Meng look like this.
"Ready!"
Lu Meng raised his sword, waited patiently for a while, and then shouted: "Siege!" β
"Kill!"
Ling Tong then shouted, and Shi Hong, the general of the Shijia family beside him, shouted: "Kill!" β
10,000 cross-chin soldiers, this time they have psychological expectations, they know that the enemy army has archers, but they also know that this kind of archers only have more than ten dead, and they have 10,000 people.
Therefore, Lu Meng's shouting is even more demagogic.
"Kill, kill! Under the walls, you will win! Whoever goes to the city first will be rewarded! β
Inspired by these words, 10,000 people ran in the wilderness in front of Guangxin City.
In the middle, there are some siege equipment, ladders, and ordinary ladders, and the first ones are good at climbing the city, carrying hooks and locks.
With the encouragement of their daughter, their goal was only the city wall in front of them, and they ran wildly.
The land of two arrows was not far away, and they could reach it quickly as long as they ran.
"Whoosh-whoosh!"
The kind of bow and arrow with an extremely long range appeared again, and Lu Meng had already prepared for it, and had already asked Ling Tong and Shihong to stay away from Shuai Qi.
This time, however, the arrows were not fired at the banner, but at the soldiers who were carrying the ladder.
With every sound of breaking through the air, a soldier was shot and fell to the ground, unknown whether he would live or die.
But on this brutal battlefield, the remaining soldiers immediately came to fill in the position and continued to carry the ladder.
When in the land of one arrow, the bows and arrows defending the city are still fired intensively, and the attackers raise the only thing in their hands to cover them, the commander and the chief have shields, and the ordinary soldiers only have swords and guns.
Some were shot dead, others got lucky enough to get under the walls.
Lu Meng looked at all this coldly, he did not charge with the team, he was the division of the three armies and the commander-in-chief of the three armies.
The saber in his hand was still held high.
This is Zhou Yu's saber.
He watched as the soldiers arrived at the city, his left hand clenched into a fist.
"There it is!"
At least the first siege, there will be a chance for someone to climb the city.
Suddenly, "Whoosh! β
There was a dense sound, and the cold light at the head of the city kept flashing, as if something was throwing crossbow arrows continuously.
This kind of arrow, obviously, has a shorter range and poor accuracy, but there are a lot of them.
In just a few moments, a large number of people who ran in the middle of the stream were shot.
"What's that?"
Lu Meng was taken aback.
Ling Tong is the kind of general who is charging at any time, and he is still in that area!
However, after the rain of arrows, Ling Tong was still there, he glared at the city wall and shouted, "Who is the city guard?" It's all kitsch and lewd skills, and you have the ability to come down and fight! β
He shouted three times in a row, but no one in the city paid any attention to him, and only a more intensive rain of arrows responded to him.
Lu Meng's scalp was numb when he looked at the rear, this density was far beyond his expectations, what did the enemy army prepare on the city wall?
Shi Hong was so anxious next to him that he watched his soldiers die one by one, and scratched his cheeks and said: "Is it that you can't go up, you can't go up, General Lu, withdraw first, withdraw and let the other department go up!" β
Lu Meng didn't pay attention to him at all, but continued to raise Zhou Yu's sword.
"General Han, charge!"
"Kill!"
Han Dang took the lead, and Jiang Xin was not to be outdone.
The two of them took 20,000 men under their command and continued to charge.
However, there are more than all kinds of crossbow machines waiting for them.
This Guangxin City, just like that, has become a purgatory.
