Chapter 494: Cao Cao's Attack (Daily Update 5/5)
Shangguan Wan'er stood on the wall of Liyang City and saw the dark enemy troops outside the city, but she was not afraid: "Sister, stones, wood, turmeric oil and other materials have been hoarded, and various architectural drawings, as well as the resources and labor corresponding to the architectural drawings are also available."
“You did a great job.”
Lin Zhier is quite satisfied with Shangguan Wan'er's ability.
Shangguan Wan'er was originally a civil servant at the level of the empress's internal minister, and her efficiency in handling internal affairs was far greater than that of most civil servants.
Lin Zhier's golden characteristics "defend a city and defend the world" are effective, with defenses +100% defense and city defense fortifications durability +100%.
The defenders of Liyang City have a faint flow of golden light, and their defense is strengthened, so they can withstand more damage without dying.
The city walls, arrow towers and horse faces of Liyang City have an additional layer of shields with the same durability as them, resisting attacks from siege tools.
A group of Cao troops had gathered outside the city.
Around Leng Yue, the prefect of Yingchuan, each had a strong general, with a strong perseverance and extremely brave.
"After capturing Liyang City, the gates of Yecheng are opened, all counties in Jizhou will definitely be alarmed. As far as I know, Xu Tian no longer has a general available, and Liyang City can be easily obtained."
Leng Yue looked at Liyang City standing in front of her and thought it would be easy to capture Liyang City.
Cao's army was rushing to build siege equipment.
In Liyang Water Village, Cao Cao had urged the army to siege. Cao's army's advisers summoned more than a dozen earthen mountains. Cao's archers quickly climbed the earthen mountains and suppressed the defenders of Liyang Water Village.
The chief general of the Cao army was Cao Cao, and Chen Gong, Xun Yu and other advisers maintained the operation of the army and the attack was orderly, which was very different from other armies, which brought great pressure to the Liyang Water Village defenders.
If Sun Jian hadn't led a group of military generals to defend the city, he would have been completely unable to defend the water camp with Li Shunchen alone.
The Cao army crossbowmen were arrowing like rain on the earth mountain, and the earth and fences of the water village were filled with arrows.
The fire-attributed arrow rain fell, hitting the wooden fence, burning with raging smoke, and the water camp guards were choked by the black smoke and coughed violently.
"Begging for rain!"
"The storm changes!"
The water-based strategists in the water village collectively release spells.
Over the water village, there were cloudy clouds, and heavy rain covered the fire part of the water village, offsetting the fire attack of Cao's army's fire arrow team.
In addition to leading his direct troops to surrender to Xu Tian, Sun Jian also brought many water-based advisers, who could effectively restrain fire attacks.
Cao's army failed in the fire attack and used a catapult to destroy the earth building in the water camp.
boom!
A thousand-pound huge rock hit the earth pile, and the earth piled up and gravel shot, and Han Dang's body shook.
Hundreds of catapults continued to bombard the earth base, hoping to directly destroy the earth base, allowing the Cao army's most brave tiger and leopard cavalry to march straight into and break through the water base.
"You can't let Cao's army raged, you will lose your momentum!"
Seeing that Cao's army tried every means to attack the morale of the defenders, Sun Jian knew that he could not continue like this, otherwise he would be too passive.
Li Shunchen said: "Before this, the lord assigned 50 general artillery to our water village, which can be used to attack Cao's army's Tushan."
"Then use the general's cannon and catapult to fight back!"
Sun Jian was angry with Cao Cao, so he issued an order to fight back.
"fire!"
"Ass my orders, and shoot stones! Three, two, one!"
"boom!"
Fifty general artillery deployed by the Tuzuo of Liyang Shuizhai, ninety catapults were fired together, and gunpowders filled with smoke and shouts resounded throughout the battlefield!
A Cao army's earthen mountain was bombarded by the general's artillery and catapults. The arrow tower set up by the Cao army collapsed instantly, and the crossbowmen were killed and injured!
Occasionally, solid bullets fired by the general's artillery fell into the Cao army. The solid bullets plowed the land in the Cao army with their terrible kinetic energy and cleared out a passage!
The general's artillery was thrown into the fortress defense, which stunned Cao's army.
This kind of weapon is quite rare in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
"It's just a device similar to a trencher, not to worry about it."
Cao Cao saw through the essence of the general's cannon and was not scared by the general's cannon, because the power of the general's skills in this world is still above the general's cannon. The combination skills of first-class generals can instantly evaporate thousands of soldiers.
The advantage of the general's artillery is that it can be mass-produced and there is no physical limitation.
"I will lead my troops to capture this big village!"
Dian Wei carried the two halberds and asked Cao Cao for battle.
"When you consume the water camp defenders, you can go into battle."
Cao Cao was worried that Dian Wei would lose it, so he asked Dian Wei to wait patiently.
There were at least dozens of military generals around Cao Cao, from Dian Wei, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Xiu, to Xiahou En, Xiahou De, Bian Xi and other military generals, all of whom were ready to go.
The sword god Xiahou En carried a blue sword on his back, crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking down on the defenders of Liyang Water Village.
Xiahou En's swordsmanship was superb, and he was given the title of the swordsman Wang Yue, but no one defeated Xiahou En, and most of them were scared away by Xiahou En.
Especially when Cao Cao appointed Xiahou En as the general of sword-bearing, Xiahou En's real combat power was even more confusing.
Cao's army sieges towers, catapults, and archers on earth and hills formed a triple siege system.
"The army is approaching, Wei Wu waves his whip!"
Cao Cao waved his hand and the characteristics of the army blessed the entire army. The momentum of the Yanzhou army soared, pressing towards Liyang Water Village.
Cao's giant shield soldiers stood in front, covering Cao's archers to the city, forming the fourth level of suppression.
One hundred thousand Cao army archers, one hundred thousand arrows were fired at once, and the rain of arrows flew in mid-air, and the shadows cast obscured the entire section of earth.
From a distance, it seems like a black bridge formed between Cao's army and Jiangdong army!
Xu You looked up at his head, and his heart almost stopped suddenly.
Cao Cao was no longer the Cao Cao that Xu You knew at this time.
After Cao Cao's level rose, he was stronger than Yuan Shao. The longbow soldiers who received Cao Cao's characteristics had a stronger offensive, and the rain of arrows pounced on him like a black dragon!
"If you want to slap the fire umbrella!"
Xu You waved his sleeves and formed a giant umbrella formed of flames in the air to protect Xu You and the soldiers near Xu You.
"Protect General!"
Cheng Pu shouted loudly, and his methods became simpler and more crude.
Rows of giant shield soldiers stepped forward, and the giant shields were stacked layer by layer, forming a tortoise shell formation in front of Sun Jian, blocking Sun Jian's rain of arrows like a rain of arrows.
The giant shield forms an arc-shaped shield wall behind the female wall.
The rain of arrows fell like hail hitting the tiles of the house!
"ah!!!"
The shield could no longer withstand the dense rain of arrows. The arrows were covered with nails and were shot into sieves by random arrows. The Jiangdong soldiers behind the shield lost the shield protection and were also shot to death by random arrows.
"fight back!"
Taking advantage of the two rounds of arrow rain in Cao's army, Sun Jian led the Sun generals of Jiangdong, holding longbows, guarding the land base, and streaming light shot out, nailing the siege Cao army to the ground!
The generals such as Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Sun He, Sun Ben, and Wu Jing were like ruthless archery machines, sniping and killing Cao's generals and high-level troops.
The Cao army infantry was like an ant colony, climbing onto the city wall, and forcibly attacking the city with rocks and wood rolling down from above the city wall.
"All the generals obey orders!"
