Chapter 228: Pan Feng Wenjiu kills Hua Xiong?
The next morning, the drums sounded in front of Hulao Pass shook the sky. Yu She, Bao Zhong, Fang Yue and more than a dozen generals under the princes led their troops to the front of Hulao Pass.
Fifty steps behind them, the Sanqian Bingzhou Army was removing large boxes from their horseback and taking out the things inside to quickly assemble them.
After a while, five hundred small stone-casting cannons and five hundred small crossbows were assembled by them. In groups of three, they began to calibrate the shooting angle according to the height of the city wall.
"Can you attack the city top seven or eight feet high in one hundred and fifty steps?" On the platform, Yuan Shao looked at Huo Hai in his left hand and said in a questioning tone.
"Is it OK? You'll know after they test the shot." Huo Hai replied with a smile.
"Don't ask me to wait for my subordinate general Bai Wenhuan." Yuan Shu interrupted and said sarcastically to Huo Hai.
Yuan Shu has seen how powerful the generals under Huo Hai are, but this time Huo Hai did not send out any of them, but Yuan Shu said that he despised Huo Hai a little.
It seems that Huo Hai is even stingier than him.
But who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, the Bingzhou Military Captain came to report to Huo Hai that the stone-casting cannon and bed crossbow cannon had been assembled and debugged and could attack.
Huo Hai nodded to his left hand, and Xu Huang took the order to command the soldiers to fight.
After a while, the princes on the stage saw red pot-shaped objects, which were thrown to a height of dozens of feet in the sky and smashed them to the top of Hulao Pass.
At the same time, the sound of sharp arrows being ejected were the arrows as thick as arms fired by the bed crossbows.
However, these arrows did not shoot at the top of the city, but at the walls.
"Bang bang bang~!"
The sound of the cracking of the clay pot sounded at the top of the city, and suddenly, there was a sea of fire on the top of the city, and thick smoke rolled. The screams of the defenders were heard one after another.
"Ding Ding Ding ~!"
Arrows were shooting densely on the city wall, and specially made grip arrows were embedded on the wall.
"Is this?..." Many princes were surprised. Why did Huo Hai shoot so many arrows on the city wall? He asked questions one after another.
"This is called a siege chisel. Once embedded in the city wall, it can carry more than 200 kilograms of weight. Soldiers can directly grab these arrow shafts and climb up the city head with force. If they are quick, they can go up to the city head in two or three breaths." Huo Hai explained to everyone.
"The burning of turbulent oil on the top of the city can buy time for the soldiers climbing the wall, but it will also make them unable to get out of their way. Huo Bingzhou's method of siege seems to have flaws!" Yuan Shu said unevenly.
"The defenders in the city are not stupid, how could they let the fire burn on the wall? They will put out the fire. Our soldiers can climb up while they are extinguishing the fire." Huo Hai glanced at Yuan Shu and said.
"What if they are not destroyed?" Yuan Shu said sarcastically again.
"If we don't destroy, we can send a car to hit the city gate!" Huo Hai looked at Yuan Shu like an idiot.
As soon as he finished speaking, the city was covered with clouds, and some monks guarding the gate used the rain talisman to extinguish the fire.
Seeing this scene, Huo Hai hooked his mouth and said to Yuan Shao, "Our army can beat drums and advance."
Yuan Shao nodded and issued a military order.
Leading by more than a dozen generals, thousands of infantrymen began to grab the siege chisel on the city wall and climb up quickly. During the whole process, the defenders on the city did not throw rolling stones and wood to smash them.
"This seems to be too smooth. Is there a fraud on the city?" Seeing that the soldiers were about to climb onto the city wall in a few breaths, the princes were puzzled.
"It's not true, they did it themselves." Huo Hai smiled.
"What's the solution?" Everyone looked at him in surprise.
"The turbulent oil of my Bingzhou Army cannot be extinguished. The more they use water to extinguish the turbulent oil, the more it will flow downstream with the water. They should have been driven under the wall by the fire. The people who went up can just gain a foothold on the city wall. Master Yuan, you can order the crash to hit the city gate."
Yuan Shao saw many soldiers who had already climbed the battlements from afar. Although he didn't want to break through Hulao Pass so quickly, he still didn't dare to do it too obviously. With the wave of the flag, dozens of people pushed the huge crash and headed towards Hulao Pass before the Hulao closed.
Sure enough, after the crash arrived at the city gate, no war between the defenders and the Allies occurred on the city wall, and the crash began to constantly hit the city gate.
"Bang~!Bang~!"
The wooden city gate just shook slightly without collapsing under the impact of a car weighing ten thousand pounds. Everyone knew that the gate should have a formation that could unload its power, but no one was willing to use a destruction talisman worth millions to break it, because you don’t know how many heavy formations there are to bless the city gate.
Relying on the soldiers' brute force to slowly consume the spiritual power of the formation and finally break it, it is the most resource-saving thing.
After a stick of incense, the sound of swords and swords intersecting came from the city. I thought that the turbulent oil must have been burned out, or the defenders found a way to put out the fire and began to fight back.
Due to the battlements, everyone could not see the specific battle situation on the city head, so they had to send more infantrymen to the city.
After half an hour of hand-to-hand combat, corpses and rolling stones began to be thrown down on the city wall. Everyone knew that most of the areas on the city wall had been taken back by the defenders. Yuan Shao immediately called out the gold and retreated, but only a few people retreated from the city wall.
After a while, Fang Yue, covered in blood, came to the front of the stage.
"What's going on the top of the city?" Yuan Shao asked.
"Report to the leader of the alliance, there are various formations arranged by monks on the top of the city. After ordinary soldiers go up, they will be difficult to move. Only our generals with higher cultivation can fight. Yu She and General Bao Zhong rushed forward and were killed by the thief Hua Xiong with a knife. The last general tried hard to break the formation, but only saved some of the personal guards around him. The rest of the brothers who did not retreat from the city should have been killed by the thief army."
Only warriors like Fang Yue who reach the peak of internal strength can be avoided by the cultivator formations and break the formation with brute force. Dong Zhuo is rich and powerful. He has arranged so many formations on the Guancheng, and many cultivators guard the city, but it makes the Allied Army's number advantage completely useless.
"What?"
When Yuan Shu and Bao Zhong were beheaded, they couldn't sit still, especially Bao Xin, who wanted to lead the army to the top of the city again.
Of course, more than two of them were killed. In a short while, more than ten heads were hung out on the top of the city by Hua Xiong. The defenders killed more than 1,000 enemies with less than a thousand casualties, and beheaded more than a dozen generals, which greatly boosted their morale.
You must know that the hundreds of people who died were Huo Hai who fired a round of tincture bombs and burned them to death.
After the generals led their troops up, although they had gained a foothold on the top of the city, they basically did not kill or injure a few defenders.
Yuan Shao was overjoyed after figuring out the situation. At this time, it was the best time to consume the princes. So, he pretended to be very annoyed and shouted, "Beat the drum and fight again, I vow to hate the soldiers who died in battle."
Huo Hai, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others all looked at Yuan Shao with surprise. However, after his military orders were given, the infantry phalanxes pressed towards the wall again under the mobilization of the snare drum.
But unexpectedly, at this time, the closing door of Hulao Pass opened. Hua Xiong led thousands of cavalry and rushed out of the city like a flood. In just a few breaths, he entered the Allied infantry formation.
The square formation formed by infantry could not resist the impact of war horses. In a moment, the people killed by Hua Xiong in the front row were overturned, and many generals were killed by Hua Xiong.
"President Yuan, the people of Xiliang are good at cavalry warfare. If our infantry formation is attacked like this, the losses will be great. Send cavalry to meet the enemy and kill the chief general." Cao Cao said hurriedly.
He had seen the rushing cavalry rushing forward. The 20,000 infantry camp that could be rushed to collapsed in just a few hundred cavalry. Although the quality of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry is not as good as the rushing cavalry, it is more than ten times more in quantity, and its impact is enough to destroy the array of 200,000 Allied troops.
It was precisely because Hua Xiong saw this that he wanted to make a contribution to his battle that he suddenly rushed out with his cavalry when his morale was greatly boosted.
"Who can be a general?" Yuan Shao shouted.
"I will go there at the end."
Huo Hai jumped out and shouted, and saw him rushing towards Hua Xiong's cavalry team with a bunch of people. However, in less than three rounds, he was killed by Hua Xiong on the horse, and the hundreds of cavalry he brought also collapsed under the impact of thousands of Western Liang Iron Cavalry.
"I have General Pan Feng, who can kill this beast." Seeing that Hua Xiong was about to rush to his subordinates' army, Han Fu spoke.
Soon, Pan Feng, who was carrying a big axe behind him and was exploding with a shocking momentum all over his body, left the list.
"When General Pan goes to fight, he will definitely succeed. Come and give General Pan a strong wine."
Yuan Shao gave his subordinates a wink. Huo Hai immediately knew what he was going to do, so he hurriedly said, "Using General Pan's methods, I'm afraid that General Yuan's wine will be warm. General Pan should go back quickly, so that our army can suffer less losses."
Upon hearing this, Pan Feng stopped drinking Yuan Shao's wine, turned over and rushed forward.
However, Yuan Shao glanced at Huo Hai meaningfully, and winked at the guard who served the wine again, asking him to take the wine back.
Huo Hai naturally couldn't let him get what he wanted and said, "The wine of Alliance Leader Yuan has been poured, so how can he take it back? It's better to wait for General Pan to return and let him drink this cup!"
"When General Pan returns from victory, the leader of the alliance should pour him a glass of wine in person. The wine is already cold, so it's better to change it!" Yuan Shao shirked.
If Pan Feng really returns to drink this glass of wine and finds that there is something wrong with the wine, then the poisoning will be made public.
Huo Hai smiled and said, "President Yuan insisted on taking back this glass of wine. Could it be that there is something wrong with this wine?"
When he asked, the audience suddenly became quiet, especially Han Fu, who seemed to have thought of something, and the look he looked at Yuan Shao was not right in an instant.
