The sun had just revealed its face in the morning, and the Jiangdong soldiers pushed the newly built siege equipment under the city wall and on the edge of the trench.
Under the city walls, they were basically burned to the point of darkness.
The two batches of siege chariots in Jiangdong were burned down. However, now a batch of new siege equipment has arrived, and most of the positions in the trench have been filled with sand and debris. The Jiangdong soldiers behind can even easily set up siege equipment on the edge of the trench and then push them to the bottom of the city wall.
While lined up not far from the wall to wait for the attack, two shield chariots with wooden roofs were pushed slowly to the city gate, and then a spear pole with rope hooks stretched out from the shield chariot, stretched out far away to drag the corpses that were inappropriate and moved the corpses away to avoid congestion of the attack route.
Gan Ning, who was on the city wall, looked at it with a frown, and was very unhappy, and even wanted to throw two cans of tincture oil down, but Zhuge Liang had no choice but to give the order that from today onwards, there would be no tincture oil...
"Come on!" Gan Ning became more and more popular as he looked at it. "Find a stone and smash it for me!"
Although the target of the shield car is not small, it is not as flexible as a human being and can avoid stones, but throwing it from the top of the city cannot keep the correct head. In the end, it threw several pieces and smashed one, and the other ran away when it saw that the situation was not good.
Huang Gai looked, observed and thought silently.
"The first thing to do to attack the city is to cut off his ambition..." Huang Gai said slowly, as if he was talking to himself and confirming his judgment. "Now, the ambition to defend the city is stronger and unable to shake... People come! Prepare to call the casting stones on the tower ship and the crossbow cart!"
In the game, the siege, the siege, the siege, the siege, the siege was rushing forward, and the soldiers rushed forward with swords and guns, and they could take down the city, but in fact, the siege battle was a very long process.
So the horse monkey accelerated the process, otherwise...
Most of the time there were another group of guys shouting about this and that.
Huang Gai finally used the catapult carriage on the ship. After using simple tools to continuously consume them in the past two days, he concluded that the equipment in the city was also damaged accordingly. If it was consumed and forced, there would be no equipment in Zigui City to use.
The stupid, big, black and thick guys are actually not superb. Although in terms of accuracy and durability, as well as related assembly convenience, etc., perhaps Jiangdong's equipment cannot keep up with the level of the cavalry, it does not mean that it cannot be used. Huang Gai could not use these before. On the one hand, it was because of the difference in height of the terrain, and on the other hand, the accuracy was too poor, so he did not dare to fight against the positions on the mountain.
And now...
In another place, after Chen Wu has turned against Huang Gai, he no longer has the same boat as Huang Gai... Well, he is on the same boat.
"Zigui! Must be beaten down!"
Chen Wu said in a deep voice, "This is the disadvantage of Jiangdong! We have the convenience of water transportation, but we must also be restricted by it! If we do not conquer Zigui, we will be threatened at all times, and we cannot escape even if we go around! Only by defeating Zigui can we continue to advance. Whoever takes Zigui first will make great contributions to Jiangdong!"
Compared to Huang Gai's relatively obscure side, Chen Wu was very straightforward in front of him. After all, if you go around in circles, it would be even more troublesome for those who are a ranger to not understand.
Someone stood by the boat and pointed at the battlefield and shouted, "Look! Governor Huang used a catapult and a crossbow!"
Hearing the sound, Chen Wu stood up and walked over, looked over, and sneered: "It's just used now, really... Is it good to say he's cautious? Or is he scared? Ah, hahahahaha..."
People around Chen Wu also started to laugh at him.
"Is there any new news in Jiangdong?" Chen Wu waved his hand, no longer cared about the hustle and bustle of the battlefield, but walked back into the cabin and discussed with his confidants.
Chen Wu's confidant nodded and said, "This morning, a military emergency report came, saying that General Zhu had contacted the Ba people and was encouraging the Ba people to march into Sichuan and Sichuan, and would take action soon... In addition, it is said that Cao's army went north and said that he wanted to attack Wuhuan..."
"Wuhuan?" Chen Wu was stunned.
"Yes, it is said that Prime Minister Cao personally went to the north to march into Wuhuan, killing more than a thousand Wuhuan bandits, and capturing cattle and sheep... These are all rumors in Jiangbei. What is the specific situation... General, is this Cao army going north, is it the only thing left to fight against the Cavalry Army now? Can you still win the battle?" Chen Wu asked with some trepidation.
Chen Wu frowned.
Everyone looked at Chen Wu.
The cavalry is concerned about military merits and is important for the battlefield merits. Isn’t it the same in other places? Of course, this is also the tradition of the feudal dynasty during wars and chaos. Once the peace period is entered, the warriors will become vulgar, just like when they are anxious to pee, they will be happy when they see the toilet, but after they have urinated, they will pinch their noses and feel disgusting.
"If this is true..." Chen Wu frowned and said, "That's really a bit difficult. After all, it's hard to support one's own... No, we can't wait here! We must take down Zigui as soon as possible! And it's best for us to take it down!"
"Uh? General... You didn't say this before..." Chen Wu's confidant couldn't understand.
Chen Wu said: "This time and then, it is not that we are showing weakness now, but that if the Cao army really just went north and did not cooperate with us, then the march to Sichuan and Sichuan might be stopped at any time... If it is true that at that time, we have not made any achievements in our hands, we will just do this... You guys say, huh?"
Chen Wu's confidant subordinates immediately understood.
"General, but it seems that the Sichuan and Shu soldiers are quite prepared. They have been attacking for several days but have not been able to attack... If they conduct a strong attack, there will be a lot of casualties..." Chen Wu said.
Chen Wu nodded, thought, and then slapped, "I'm there! Let's dig the tunnel!"
"Authentic?" asked the confidant.
"Yes, just use a shield to cover it and dig it from the trench in the city wall! First dig a trench to prevent infantry, then set up a chest wall, and then dig it inside behind the chest wall!" Chen Wu laughed, as if he had thought of some wonderful idea.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "Ah? From the trench?" Chen Wu was stunned and looked at the other few people in a hurry. "General, in this way, aren't you digging in front of the city? Don't you see those standing on the city? Then Sichuan soldiers can easily determine their location, and then they can fill smoke or water, or even dig tunnels...
Chen Wu laughed, "I just want them to see it!"
Chen Wu glanced at everyone again before he slowly solved the mystery, "I really want to dig the tunnel to the Year of the Horse, Moon and Monkey? No one can shout... Can't wait? So we have to do our best! The people in Zigui City dare not let us dig tunnels so close! We can't attack for a while, so we have to lead them out! In this way, we have a chance! Moreover, this credit... Old Man Huang can't compete with us!"
…(^.^)YYa!!…
The smoke on the battlefield slowly spreads in the wind.
Under the head of Zigui City, layers of corpses filled the world with blood.
Huang Gai and Chen Wu didn't care much about such a big injury.
Because the core of the Jiangdong soldiers is the general's private soldiers, just like the direct troops in Huang Gai's hands and the Lujiang Shangjia in Chen Wu's hands. But the rest of the miscellaneous soldiers are actually not very concerned about the number of casualties. Because many of the Jiangdong soldiers who were killed and injured were Shanyue.
Zigui City itself is also in ruins. The walls of the city walls are covered with black marks smoked by flames. The large and small potholes smashed by stone bullets, broken battlements, and crooked and collapsed city gate towers are undoubtedly showing a little. If you work harder and work harder, you can take it down...
Huang Gai stood on the high platform and looked up.
Chen Wu took his people closer to the city, and his purpose was very clear, just to achieve the first achievement.
Huang Gai looked at Chen Wu's army with a solemn expression, and there were so many thoughts flashing in his eyes. Chen Wu seemed to have noticed the look projected by Huang Gai, and then turned around and seemed to have intersected Huang Gai's gaze in the air.
Through the exchange of a large number of catapults and crossbows, only the scattered catapults of Jiangdong soldiers are now remaining, and are smashing the Zigui city walls one after another.
The defenders of Zigui should have basically retreated. Because the soldiers he sent out to circumnavigate should be almost here now.
Huang Gai judged that he did not compete with Chen Wu for the first time, but was preparing to intercept Zigui and other retreating soldiers.
Although the Zigui city wall has been repaired for a certain period of time, it is not a heroic city. After all, it can be called the Sichuan and Shu army with good preparations. For the Sichuan and Shu army, there is no need for them to fight to the death in a city like Zigui that does not have any special advantages...
After all, the road to entering Sichuan is still long, and the Sichuan and Shu army only needs to drag it slowly and then form a killer on Yufu's side. So is it necessary for the Sichuan and Shu army to fight for the ammunition and food in Zigui?
Obviously there is no need.
Chen Wu came to ask for orders, and Huang Gai did not make too much trouble. Although Huang Gai did not like Chen Wu, he did not need to stumbling in order to see the overall situation of Jiangdong. It would be enough.
After all, this battle will take a long time, and the journey will be very long.
After being burned once, Huang Gai also restrained his previous pride mentality and began to show the elegance of Jiangdong's generals.
Amid the sound of war drums, a new round of attacks began again.
Soon, the Jiangdong soldiers began to dig soil under the shield cart, and the excavated soil accumulated on both sides of the shield cart. While strengthening the shield cart, they also hooked up the shield cart into a mud wall.
The Sichuan and Shu soldiers on the city wall kept protruding their heads and observing the movements of the Jiangdong Army.
The catapults and crossbows of both sides were damaged. Neatly speaking, Jiangdong suffered more damage, but because Huang Gai had built many more simple siege equipment before, so in fact, in terms of consumption tolerance, it seemed that the Jiangdong army had the upper hand.
Now the Jiangdong Army's catapult car has gradually advanced to the city and began to bombard the Zigui city wall.
The more accurate crossbow chariots on both sides have basically been exchanged.
The stone bullet roared through the air, then hit the city wall, or crossed the city wall and fell into the city.
The soldiers in Jiangdong seemed to be digging very quickly, and the dust in the shield workshop was flying, and the soil was quickly piled up. The catapults in Jiangdong continued to bombard the city walls, and the Zigui defenders seemed to have to be less and less, and they retreated further and further.
Chen Wu and his men were on standby in the distance of the shield cart. Suddenly, they heard some noise. When they turned around, they saw some figures shaking on the city wall on the west side of Zigui. It seemed that they wanted to restrain the Jiangdong army from the flank, but were discovered by Huang Gai's sentry early. Before they left the city gate, they had rained arrows and were immediately stuck near the city gate.
"Their morale is depressed..." Chen Wu looked at it, snorted, and then said, "It's no wonder, after all, this catapult cart is hitting... If you really have the courage, you might be able to really involve some soldiers here... No! This is a striking attack! Let your subordinates prepare, and the inside may be about to rush out!"
As expected, Chen Wu was not bad. When such a large formation was made in the West City Gate, a sudden riot was in the direction of Chen Wu, and many defenders rushed out of the city wall. The arrows were as raining as the Jiangdong soldiers near the city gate were caught off guard. Then the city gate hole opened, and Gan Ning rushed out with his men.
Huang Gai's archers were covering the West City Gate, but they could not turn around for a while. They were rushed out by Gan Ning and others, dispersing the Jiangdong soldiers behind the shield chariots in the trench.
Chen Wu immediately ordered to take Lujiang to attack.
Among the Jiangdong soldiers, not many are good at fighting on land, and Lujiang Shangjia may be one of them.
Of course, there are very few people who are good at cavalry fighting in Jiangdong. The main reason is that there are few war horses in Jiangdong. It is not enough to provide high-ranking generals to high-ranking generals. Why do you have the extra amount to form cavalry? Therefore, many Jiangdong people have never ridden a horse in their entire lives, and at most they can ride donkeys.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Perhaps it was the instinctive attraction between the rangers, Gan Ning targeted Chen Wu, and Chen Wu also faced Gan Ning. What's more interesting is that the soldiers from both sides fought on the periphery, leaving a piece of open space in the center for the generals of both sides to show off.
This may be a more strange situation that only occurs among the Ranger Generals.
Blood-stained land.
Charred remains.
Amid the constant shouts, roars, screams and screams around, weapons and swords intersect and sparks flew everywhere.
Life and death are in the next moment!
Perhaps the next moment, the flesh and blood will be separated, and one step in life and one step into death is the most popular and most intense stimulation that the ranger likes.
Don’t miss life, don’t be afraid of death.
Put all your spirit and all your strength into the battle in front of you.
"clang!"
There was a loud bang.
Gan Ning and Chen Wu finally collided with each other during the continuous transformation and temptation. The swords intertwined with each other and sparks flew everywhere. It seemed that even the swords in their hands made an overwhelmed hissing sound, which made the soldiers around them feel uncomfortable.
"I am a man who is still a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who is a man who
Gan Ning grinned, then knocked Chen Wu away, and the two of them opened a certain distance again.
Chen Wu also smiled, "Chen Wu and Chen Zilie!"
"You are not bad!" Gan Ning shook the thick-backed knife, and the golden ring on the back of the knife clanged.
Chen Wu also snorted, "You are not bad either!"
While talking, it was like a promise, and the two of them rushed towards each other again almost at the same time!
Although the two people's sword light flashed and they made many actions to confuse each other, in the end the two people's swords hit each other again, making a louder sound than the last time. Both sides were unstable and retreated again.
Chen Wu glanced at his sword slightly, and his eyebrows twitched. A hole broke out above the sword. He looked up at Gan Ning, and saw that Gan Ning seemed to be checking the sword, but it seemed that the damage was not serious...
Dry!
Chen Wu looked at Gan Ning's smile and felt that he was just smiling.
That's right, Gan Ning did it on purpose.
Gan Ning likes to use his big guys to touch other people's guys.
After all, Gan Ning’s guy is thickened, thickened and lengthened…
Chen Wu narrowed his eyes, adjusted his breathing evenly, and poked his sword forward slightly, accumulating momentum and taking action.
If you don’t want to continue to win with your strength, you naturally have to defeat Gan Ning with your skills. Therefore, the most important thing is to make good use of the opponent’s weapons, the attack frequency is lower, and the attack distance is controlled well. Instead of pursuing one blow, it is changed to being cut into pieces.
Gan Ning also saw that Chen Wu had changed his fighting strategy, tsk, held the knife in both hands, and stood in front of him.
Just as the momentum of both sides was rising and ready to go, I suddenly heard a sound of gold sounding above the head of Zigui City!
Gan Ning snorted and took a step back, "I will spare your life today!" After saying that, he called the soldiers to retreat without waiting for Chen Wu to reply.
Chen Wu glanced at the figure shaking on the broken city wall of Zigui, and wanted to chase it, but he obviously had to face the danger of being shot by the archers on the city of Zigui. It was somewhat worthless. Even if he pulled the sword away, he did not pursue it. He laughed, "It's just a dog of a despair. You defeated general! You dare to speak out! Don't run away if you have sex! Fight with your Grandpa Chen Sanhe!"
Gan Ning didn't reply and went straight into the city, finding Zhuge Liang with some anger or resentment.
"When you are engaged, why is the Mingjin?! Wait for a moment, and you will be killed off the enemy general's head!"
『It's almost OK," Zhuge Liang smiled and waved his hand and said, 『From today, gradually reduce the defensive soldiers... Xingba, we are going to prepare to withdraw...』
『Aha?』 Gan Ning widened his eyes, 『Retreat...Retreat?!Why?!
I Gan Aotian Xingba Ning, I have never withdrawn in the dictionary...
OK, there are still some.
However, after losing the last time, Gan Ning was full of desire to win back. He heard Zhuge Liang say that it was a good show behind him, so he endured not to compete with Faping. As a result, he finally fought once and was recalled by Mingjin. He felt a little resentful, and his eyes suddenly widened, "Why should I withdraw?! Zhuge is engaged!"
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "If you don't retreat, will you be consuming the Jiangdong soldiers here? Isn't that just happening to be in Jiangdong's calculation?"
"What calculation?" Gan Ning was a little confused.
Zhuge Liang looked up slightly and looked at the forest north of Zigui. "General Gan, don't you think the people of Jiangdong are so stupid. They only know how to fight us head-on under the city?"
Chapter completed!
