Chapter 61 Beacon Fire

The Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Liang arrived at the outskirts of the Han army camp and formed a siege formation. The Yellow Turban Army had already prepared the ladders to climb the wooden city wall.

The Yellow Turban Army outside the military camp, plus the soldiers brought by the lords of the Yellow Turban camp, totaled 50,000 people.

Chu Tian roughly compared the strength of the two sides and found that the Han army had 20,000 rebels, which had no advantage over the Yellow Turbans and could offset the 20,000 Yellow Turbans. This meant that the 5,000 Han troops had to block the extra 30,000 Yellow Turbans.

Chu Tian found that he couldn't control his trembling body, and the same was true for other lords, Huo An, Prince Yan and others.

No lord has ever experienced a large-scale battle involving tens of thousands of people.

The tension of an impending war is suffocating.

"Dry!"

Chu Tian cursed to himself to calm down a little.

Sima Zhang Tie of the Han army led the Han army to the city, and the soldiers climbed onto the city. His expression was solemn. The individual combat power of the Yellow Turban Army was far less than that of the Han army, but the number of people made it a fierce battle.

"Light the beacon!"

As the Han Army Sima gave an order, the beacon tower of the barracks was lit with beacon fire, and the smoke curled up!

This is a signal to warn and call for help!

The Han military captains and army commanders from other nearby military camps all noticed the beacon fire in Zhang Tie's military camp.

The news reached Lu Zhi's desk in the main camp of the Han army.

"The Yellow Turban Army should be trapped. Taking the initiative to attack at this time is unusual. Xuande, what do you think?"

Lu Zhi put down his papers and looked at the students who came to seek refuge under the tent.

The man was seven feet five inches tall, with his hands reaching his knees.

If any player is in the main camp of the Han army, they will definitely be shocked by what Lu Zhi calls this person.

Besides Liu Xuande in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which Xuande could appear in Lu Zhi's military camp?

At this time, Liu Bei was obviously not one of the princes, and his power was very small.

But he is accompanied by two powerful generals with extremely high strength. One is nine feet long, with a face as heavy as a jujube, and the other is eight feet long, with a leopard head and eyes, a swallow's jaw and a tiger's beard. Players in the early stage can only retreat when they encounter the three of them.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were recognized by people at that time as enemies of ten thousand people.

In "Lord", its image mainly refers to the Romance, and partially refers to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms for revision. After all, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is too deeply rooted in the hearts of players in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and official history rarely describes the appearance of military commanders.

Liu Bei coughed lightly: "It's probably the Yellow Turban thieves in Guangzong County who are afraid of Sir's majesty and want to use Guangzong County as a bait to delay our main force and break our flanks first."

"Most likely. But the thief Zhang Jiao in Guangzong County is quite good at sorcery and can incite people's hearts, so we must be on guard against him."

Lu Zhi fell into brief thought.

Zhang Fei said impatiently: "As long as we give our eldest brother an elite army, we can take Zhang Jue's head within three days!"

"Third brother, don't be presumptuous."

"Xuande, I will temporarily give you 500 cavalry. You can lead the Sanhe cavalry to rescue the left wing and find out about the true identity of the Yellow Turban thieves."

Lu Zhi finally used Liu Bei.

A glint flashed in Liu Bei's eyes. As time went by, he could take advantage of this opportunity to gain military merit and rise to prominence.

Liu Bei walked out of Lu Zhi's military camp. A group of free players who had taken refuge with Liu Bei were already waiting outside.

This group of strangers took the initiative to join him and claimed that he had the qualifications to be emperor.



The sound of horns echoed over the battlefield, and the Yellow Turban Army carried out hundreds of light and simple flying ladders, preparing to storm the Han army camp.

A group of yellow turban infantrymen holding shields covered the archers approaching the city wall.

The purpose of the Yellow Turban Army was to quickly break through the Han army's camp, so the method they adopted was to suppress the defenders with archers, then set up simple flying ladders and hook them on the wooden walls, and the army rushed into the camp.

Ladder trucks, catapults, catapults and other relatively cumbersome siege equipment did not appear in this offensive and defensive battle.

Obviously, General Zhang Liang's intelligence was not low, and he knew that he would have a chance to break through the Han army's camp only before other Han troops could react.

"Fire the arrow!"

Liu Sandao held a long bow and led the Xuzhou archers to stand at the front.

There are 150 Xuzhou archers on the wooden wall. They are divided into three groups and take turns shooting arrows to ensure that they can continue to suppress the Yellow Turban Army below.

The archers on the arrow tower and the wooden wall fired arrows at the same time. Dozens of arrows fell. Several yellow scarf sword and shield bearers were shot and fell to the ground.

Liu Sandao's force level now reached 56 points. He shot an arrow and penetrated a wooden shield. The wooden shield and the Yellow Turban Soldier's arm were nailed together.

The Yellow Turban soldier who was shot through the arm rolled in pain on the ground. Seeing the miserable condition of his companions, the Yellow Turban soldiers around him stopped their attack slightly.

However, under the urging of the Yellow Turban Army Supervisory Team, the Yellow Turban Army continued to attack despite the rain of arrows.

The elite archers of the Shesheng Battalion of the Han Army stood firm on the wooden arrow tower and easily killed the Yellow Turban soldiers.

But even the most elite archers have physical limitations, and the Yellow Turban Army archers quickly got into position and began to fight back.

The number of the Yellow Turban Army was larger, and the densely packed Yellow Turban archers fired arrows to suppress the defenders at the top of the city.

Hua Mulan held up a wooden shield covered with iron sheets to block the arrows of the Yellow Turban archers for Lord Chu Tian.

With her current strength, which is close to 90%, it would be difficult for ordinary arrows to hurt her unless she is exhausted.

A Xuzhou archer was shot in the shoulder by an arrow from a Yellow Turban soldier and was incapacitated. Two light infantrymen hurriedly carried the screaming companion into the military camp.

Free players with a career direction of medicine use medicinal herbs to rescue these injured soldiers.

Xia Zhen also brought two doctors, one of whom was Elder Li's daughter Li Lan. Li Lan has now been promoted from a low-level doctor to a mid-level doctor, who can help soldiers stop bleeding and reduce their mortality.

However, not all soldiers can be completely revived, especially those who are hit in vital parts. Arterial bleeding and wound infection alone can lead to death.

"Cloud echelon team comes forward!"

Zhang Liang rode on a war horse and commanded the cloud echelons to attack the city.

"Heaven is dead, Huang Tian shall stand!"

Perhaps it was Zhang Liang's characteristics that had an effect. The Yellow Turban Army under his command became extremely fanatical and their morale soared!

Thousands of Yellow Turban Soldiers as a cloud echelon team carried simple ladders and set up the ladders under the cover of their own archers!

Once the ladder hooks the wooden wall, a large number of Yellow Turban soldiers and Yellow Turban chiefs will immediately climb up the city wall along the simple ladder, and the defenders will be in a bitter battle.

"Don't let the Yellow Turban Army's cloud echelon get close to the city wall!"

Zhou Yafu was observing the Yellow Turban Army's offensive and asked Liu Sandao to lead the archers to fire arrows at the Yun Echelon under the city.

"General Zhou, the Yellow Turban Army's arrow rain is very dense!"

Liu Sandao led the archery troops to focus on shooting at the Yellow Turban Army's cloud echelons. The counter-suppression of the Yellow Turban archers under the city made Liu Sandao sometimes not dare to raise his head.

Several of the Yellow Turban soldiers carrying the ladder fell down, and the ladder hit the ground heavily.

Zhou Yafu also held a Han bow. He was not a military general, but shooting the Yellow Turban soldiers was not a problem.

A yellow turban soldier fell down in response to the string. Zhou Yafu took out another arrow from the quiver and shot the second yellow turban soldier.

The number of the Yellow Turban Army was too great, and some Yellow Turban Soldiers lifted up the ladders that had fallen on the ground and put them into the siege sequence.

"Fire Attack Team, attack!"

Zhang Liang waved his hand, and another elite Yellow Turban army for siege came forward.
