Cao Cao looked at the figure that appeared in the sky, and his heart instantly rose to his throat.

This battle!

Sure enough, there were tens of thousands!

Moreover, although these soldiers were scattered all over the place, they walked in an orderly manner.

Definitely the trained stream.

It's definitely a bloody battle!

Guo Jia looked at the sky, and his cough instantly intensified.

A look of horror flashed in his eyes.

Look at the momentum.

I'm afraid I won't be able to hold the city today.

Could it be that the king's luck is about to turn around at this point?

Throughout the city walls, all the soldiers stopped making noise.

There was a suppressed heaviness on everyone's face.

Only the thunder kept ringing, as if mocking.

The armies on the horizon are getting closer and closer.

Dale!

On the left and right sides, there were all neat and orderly cavalry.

In the middle, the mighty archers and infantry are like a surging tide.

Behind, when the silver snake appeared, the cold armor reflected the cold glow.

Finally, the army stopped a hundred paces from the edge of the moat.

The left and right cavalry commanders marched forward in unison.

Zhang He, Gao Lan, Lu Bu and Ma Chao drove side by side to the edge of the moat.

Lu Bu looked up at the city wall, took out a telescope from the cloth bag hanging from his waist, and glanced at the city wall.

Looking at the pale faces of the defenders on the city wall, the corners of Lu Bu's mouth couldn't help but grin.

That's it!

He just likes the look of his enemies!

Fear!

Terrible!

Lu Bu's gaze finally fell on Cao Cao's face.

Seeing Cao Cao's serious face, Lu Bu laughed and said, "Cao thief, do you remember the battle of Puyang?" Today, I, Lu Bulai, have returned it to you! ”

Cao Cao looked at Lu Bu.

His mouth trembled slightly.

What kind of lineup is this?

Zhang He, Gao Lan, Hebei Siting Zhu, he had seen it before in the Battle of Guandu.

There are also Lu Bu and Ma Chao!

These two people, although they were both defeated, they both killed him so much that he lost his armor.

Now, Lu Yi'er has brought them all under his banner!

Cao Cao slammed his fist on the city wall in front of him.

No way!

When pigs fly!

Lu Yi'er, in just a few years, how could it be possible to gather so many fierce generals?

I can't even dream of it!

Ma Chao also took out a telescope from the bag on his waist.

Aiming at Cao Cao on the city wall, Ma Chao roared: "Cao thief, traitor, evil thief!" I see where you've been running lately! ”

"Today, only the city is broken!"

"If I catch you, I will eat the meat and sleep on your skin!"

Guo Jia heard Lu Bu and Ma Chao scolding under the city, walked up to Cao Cao, and reminded loudly: "King, there is no need to talk to them. The enemy is moving like this, and it should be about to attack the city. ”

"Your lord, you go down the city wall first, just in case."

"There are many enemy troops, and the situation today is difficult to control."

Cao Cao heard the meaning of Guo Jia's words.

Glancing back at Guo Jia, Cao Cao opened his mouth and did not reply.

Seeing this, Guo Jia did not speak again.

At this moment, the Jingzhou legion outside the city suddenly cracked slowly from it.

A tall thunderbolt slowly walked over under the push of the soldiers.

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and stopped breathing.

Thunderbolt!

He's seen it too!

When Jiangdong sent Huang Gai and Pang Tong to assist Guandu, Yuan Shao used catapults and arrow towers to beat him back.

At that time, Pang Tong told him about the thunderbolt and showed him the drawings.

Over the years, he had tried to do it.

However, because there was a constant war, there was no fixed place to live.

In addition, there are very few craftsmen in Liangzhou, and they have not been successfully made.

Unexpectedly, this time I had to face this thunderbolt.

Thinking that Yuan Shao used a catapult to make himself deflated, Cao Cao felt a little cold in his heart.

Over the years, why has Lu Yi'er always had such good luck?

Why did you come up with such a siege weapon?

Why would so many people want to follow him?

The Thunderbolt came straight to the edge of the moat.

Thousands of soldiers pulled piles of boulders in horse-drawn carts to stop at the side of the thunderbolt cart and unload the boulders.

The other soldiers watched this scene the whole time.

On Cao Cao's side, Xiahou Tang saw this and said to Cao Cao: "King, when Jiangdong came to our aid in Guandu before, Pang Tong said that this thunderbolt car. I remember that he said that the weight and distance of this thunderbolt were far greater than that of the catapult. Even on the other side of the moat, thunderbolts can be delivered to the walls. ”

"At that time, the situation was critical, and it was expected that Pang Tong would definitely not deceive us."

"Now, if we allow the Jingzhou Legion to prepare the thunderbolt, we can only be beaten passively at that time!"

"We have to take the initiative!"

Xun You said with a calm face: "There are cavalry on both sides of the enemy, and the commanders are Hebei Sitingzhu, Lu Bu, and Ma Chao. ”

"The cavalry on the right side clearly has the figure of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry."

"Once we take the initiative, I'm afraid we will be immediately defeated."

"It's not feasible."

Cao Ren said: "You can use the chariot array." ”

Cao Cao looked at Cao Ren suspiciously.

Cao Ren pointed to the left and right sides below and said, "The enemy's movement is like this, and there is no urgent information in the east and west of the city, which means that the enemy should not be ready to attack from the east and west of the city. ”

"We will send two teams of men and horses, three thousand men each, and will go out of the city with wagons."

"The gunmen were hiding behind the wagon."

"When we get close to the enemy, the cavalry on both sides of the enemy must be dispatched."

"At that time, we will knock down the wagon, the spearmen will hide behind the wagon, and if the enemy cavalry dares to charge, we will kill them with spearmen."

"When the enemy cavalry is drawn away, we will open the gates again and use our cavalry to storm the thunderbolts."

"The soldiers who operate the Thunderbolt are unarmed."

"It's possible to crash the thunderbolt for a while."

"We have a lot of cavalry."

"It is completely feasible to destroy the Thunderbolt in a short period of time."

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and Xun You and said, "What do you think?" ”

Xun You frowned, looked down at the Jingzhou Legion outside the city and said, "I don't approve of this way of attacking. ”

"This time the enemy is coming, and it is impossible that there will be no countermeasures."

"The cavalry on both sides of the enemy, if they can be attracted away so easily, it will not be the state of Wu."

"In today's situation, defending the city is really not the best way."

"I propose to open the gates and attract the attention of the enemy from the front with shield men and bow infantry."

"Cavalry rushed out from the east and west sides of the city, made a detour to the rear of the enemy's army, and surrounded the enemy."

"In this way, there may be hope."

"If the enemy is still on guard, then we can only retreat."

Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia.

Guo Jia coughed violently a few times, his face was swollen and red, and he nodded.

Cao Cao let out a long breath and said to Cao Ren: "Zixiao, you immediately lead 30,000 shield soldiers and bow infantry, open the city gate, and attack the enemy's main camp!" ”

Cao Ren hugged his fists and rushed down the city wall.

Cao Cao looked behind him again and said, "Where are Xu Huang and Cao Chun?" ”

Two strong men with a height of horses walked out, hugged their fists and said, "Xu Huang (Cao Chun) is here!" ”

Cao Cao said: "Each of you leads 10,000 cavalry, rushes out from the east and west of the city, goes around to the rear of the enemy, and surrounds the enemy with the main army!" ”

Xu Huang and Cao Chun responded in unison and ran down the city wall quickly.

Cao Cao looked at the others and said, "Others, defend the city with Lone!" ”

All the soldiers responded in unison.

Not long after Cao Cao gave the order, the city gates were opened and the drawbridge was lowered.

Then, countless soldiers rushed out of the city like a tidal wave.

Zhang He, Gao Lan, Lu Bu and Ma Chao all turned their horses and retreated.

The thunderbolt operated the soldiers, some of whom still carried the boulders, and some of the soldiers placed the boulders in wooden frames.

On the city wall, Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Xun You, Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan and other soldiers looked at this scene with puzzled expressions.

Are these unarmed thunderbolt operators not afraid of death?

Just when the shield soldiers and archers of the defenders in the city rushed to the drawbridge of the moat, they saw the banner of the Jingzhou Legion in the middle of the army.

Thousands of unarmed thunderbolt operators fell to the ground one after another under the blank gaze of Cao Cao and others on the city wall.

Nearly 100 strange weapons with strange shapes and shapes, like tigers and leopards, appeared in everyone's field of vision.

On top of each strange weapon, three huge curved bows are mounted.

Behind the three huge curved bows, dozens of soldiers mounted what looked like spears and sharp arrows on top of their weapons, which were arm thickness and more than two meters long.

Seeing that the shield soldiers of the defenders of the city had rushed across the drawbridge and killed in front of the Thunderbolt soldiers.

The unanimous roar was accompanied by the waving of the flags, which rang out in unison: "Release!" ”

Hundreds of things like spears and sharp arrows roared out like a rain of arrows.

The defender shield soldiers who had just rushed to the side of the thunderbolt car flew backwards with their shields pierced, crashing into a large number of soldiers!

Many shield soldiers were even pinned to the ground and couldn't move!

The first batch of strangely shaped weapons finished attacking and retreated.

A second batch of strangely shaped weapons stepped forward.

The roar of unison, accompanied by the waving of the flag, sounded again: "Put! ”

The defenders' archers who had just stormed the drawbridge were no longer protected by shieldmen!

One by one, they watched in horror as the arm-thick "spear" instantly killed in front of them, piercing them and the soldiers behind them, and flying backwards several meters away!

The second batch of odd-shaped weapons stepped back, and the previous batch of strange-shaped weapons stepped forward.

The defenders' archers and infantry panicked one by one and hurriedly retreated.

Some of those who didn't have time to retreat were directly pushed to the ground, and then trampled to the ground by the rebels.

Behind these soldiers, Cao Ren kept waving the saber in his hand, slashing and killing several people, but he still couldn't control the tendency of the archers to retreat.

Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Xun You and others on the city wall looked at this scene with desperate expressions one by one.

What kind of weapon is this?

Why can you shoot a spear like a feathered arrow?

How can such a powerful attack be resisted?

The third group of odd-shaped weapons did not attack.

The soldiers operating the thunderbolt got up one after another, and dozens of people slowly pulled up the lever of the thunderbolt that had been filled with boulders in the wooden frame.

Dozens of roars sounded along with the waving of flags: "Attack!" ”

A clangling sound rang out.

In the sky above Zitong, accompanied by the dancing of the silver snake, dozens of boulders crossed the trajectory in the sky and landed near six places on the city wall.

Screams instantly rang out inside and outside the city walls.

Boulders may be smashed on the city walls, and the soldiers on the city walls will be smashed directly into bloody mud.

Or they can go over the walls and fall among the people who are in the city helping to defend the city.

Pieces of people fell.

Shriek.

Wailing.

Instantly resounded in the city.

Countless people rushed into the city.

Before the overseer's soldier could raise his butcher's knife, he was knocked out.

A boulder flew directly towards Xiahou Yuan, not far from Cao Cao.

Xiahou Yuan looked up at the boulder and came over, opened his mouth wide, and just wanted to scream, but the next moment, he was directly hit by the boulder, turned into meat and mud, and was directly knocked into the city from the city wall.

Cao Cao, Xun You, Guo Jia, Xiahoudun and others stared blankly at the direction in which Xiahou Yuan and the boulder flew out together.

After a while, Cao Cao and Xiahou Diancai let out a terrible scream in unison: "Miaocai!! ”
