Chapter 958(1/2)
Cheng Yu thought this was an evenly matched battle, but he never expected that it was a unilateral suppression. Because it was so unexpected, Cheng Yu was extremely fearful and complicated...
The generals and counselors on the left and right didn't look very good either. They looked at each other, thought about it, and shook their heads.
Liangjiu said: "It's different from the cannons I encountered in Xuzhou before. That thing couldn't be assembled, and it was heavy and couldn't cover up its traces. But now this thing can be assembled, and it appeared on the city wall out of thin air. Moreover,
What it throws is not so much stone or fire as it is a large heavy arrow. It is much lighter than the previous thing, and its attack power has increased. There is no need to wait, it can be recalibrated quickly, and the arrow can be fired quickly.
Things... if you want to destroy it, it will be difficult!"
"It turns out that Lu's soldiers and horses also have such military weapons..." Cheng Yu said: "We must ask the scout camp to find out what it is! It would be best to have the blueprints."
The people from the scout camp responded. But they knew that it would be difficult to find out. I was afraid that such things were confidential. They had never heard of it before, let alone now.
During the previous Battle of Cao and Lu, Cao Jun also imitated earthen artillery, but because of its poor maneuverability, the effect was not as good as that of Xuzhou, so there was never room for use. But now, something like this has appeared again, not only
It can fire heavy arrows and fireballs. Such things... If Cao Jun were hostile to them, they might not have a chance of winning.
Cheng Yu didn't know what it was like.
If this battle spreads to all the cities in Jizhou, the effect of conquering the enemy without fighting will scare a lot of people to death.
Cheng Yu was worried, and Chunyu Qiong and Gao Lan were even more so. Seeing such a battle, how could they not be anxious?! They were simply anxious.
Gao Lan rode back to the camp to discuss with Chunyu Qiong.
"General Chunyu, do you want to support the troops?!" Gao Lan said: "I can lead the troops to support."
If Gao Lan brings people to support, Chunyu Qiong can only guard against Cheng Yu in the rear.
However, no matter how calm Chun Yuqiong was, she could not hide the fierce tug in her heart at this time, saying: "I'm afraid that if the battle situation is like this, it may not be able to turn the tide, but it will just keep filling in people's lives!"
The fire in front of you is shocking. How can you not be frightened when the battle is here? This is obviously a completely suppressed fight.
It’s not that Chunyu Qiong wants to protect her own strength, but why would she do it when she knows that going there will only cause more lives?!
Gao Lan said: "If we don't support it, if we continue like this, I'm afraid the whole army will be wiped out. If Lu's troops leave the city and pursue them again, it will be too late!"
Moreover, if they just watch and don't respond, if they are really defeated, how can the two of them return to Yuan Shao to communicate with each other?! They can't say anything.
Is it difficult for them to fight, and you just watch from the sidelines?!
This is definitely not possible! We must support both emotionally and rationally. Even if we don't consider these things, we cannot just watch Yuan Xi's defeat. Once defeated, I'm afraid Sima Yi will take advantage of the victory to pursue him. When the time comes, if Cheng Yu gets involved again
, they are more difficult to preserve.
Gao Lan said: "I will take the archers to help with the long-distance attack, that's okay!"
Chunyu Qiong quickly weighed the pros and cons and said: "General Gao will lead 3,000 men forward, with 2,000 archers and 1,000 infantrymen holding shields for cover! But you must know that you can't go too far forward. You can attack from a distance!"
You must pay attention, there is Cao Jun watching behind our army. Don’t forget it!”
After Gao Lan heard this, he led 3,000 men, and quickly surrounded them from the outside. They selected a place, prepared shields for defense, and kept raining bows and arrows on the city wall.
Yuan Bing's arrows had almost stopped, and only a few fell sporadically. It can be seen that the archers in Yuan Xi's camp were not completely wiped out, and the scattered archers did not have the energy to fire arrows on the city at this time.
p>
The power of the bow and arrow battalion lies in intensive attacks. Once this advantage is lost, the arrows hitting the east and the west will not cause much damage at all.
Therefore, Yuan Bing's long-distance attack was completely defeated.
But at this time, reinforcements suddenly arrived, and the bows and arrows suddenly became denser again, falling far away.
The scout reported back to Sima Yi: "Report to the military advisor! There are reinforcements in the southwest corner, about three to four thousand people, most of them archers!"
Sima Yi groaned and said: "Act according to the plan, just turn to the southwest corner!"
"Yes!" The scout obeyed.
What kind of riddle are you playing?! Ma Teng was confused at all. He glanced at him and then looked at Lu Bu! However, he found that all Lu Bu could see at this time was the scene of the city being burned with fire. He seemed a little drunk, and his eyes were full of energy.
He was intoxicated, revealing a little bit of bloodthirsty eyes. People on the battlefield, no matter how cowardly, or no matter how heroic, are not afraid of life and death, and denounce the madness of the enemy camp with passionate blood. Their blood is not only
There is hot blood, and it is inseparable from the murderous nature. Of course, this is only one of the natures, but this kind of thing exists...
This is an indescribable addiction, like excitement injected into the blood. At that moment, when this kind of killing and victory are intertwined, a warrior will enjoy such a moment.
Lu Bu is even more like this. He has never lacked such things in his blood. Therefore, he is very proud and enjoys it, and his eyes are straightforward and revealing!
Killing, killing is so exciting! This is killing, this is war, this is contention. This is the real fight, passionate life. This is the fate of a man on horseback.
Life and death, victory and defeat are intertwined into contradictions and splendor.
Ma Teng looked at the things in Lu Bu's eyes. He was not unfamiliar with such things, and was even more familiar with them. Because the soldiers and horses on the border, they looted, and they were never innocent. They also had the same thing in their eyes, they were more bloodthirsty and crazier.
.
The only difference is that Lu Bu still has a little restraint and ambition in his eyes. That kind of ambition is the pride and pride that dominates everything in front of him. It seems that with a flick of his finger, he can dominate the outcome and victory in front of him.
Life and death.
Even if Lu Bu had never openly talked about the world and his ambitions before, at least the desire he showed now was genuine!

Very direct!
This scene was so shocking that Ma Teng was so full of words that he suddenly swallowed them. At this moment, he felt that there was no need to say anything more!
Ma Teng's complicated mood has gradually calmed down. He has accepted the reality and Lu Bu's strength. When he directly admitted this, it turned out that it was true and he let go of his unwillingness and obsession. He felt relaxed all over.
So when he looked at the city with new eyes, when he went to see Sima Yi and Lu Bu, he felt awe in his heart.
Of course he knew that this was the effect Sima Yi wanted to achieve, to shock both inside and outside the city, to shock Jizhou and other states in the world, and also to shock the princes, including him!
His goal was achieved, at least before the war ended, Ma Teng was already in awe!
He understood better that since he wanted this effect, Sima Yi must have a lot of back-ups. Maybe there is no need to ask about these, you will know the details just by looking at them.
Therefore, the turbulence in his heart calmed down again, and he continued to watch the battle.
Zhang Yang was much simpler than him in his heart. He had long wanted to embrace Lu Bu's lap. In the past, he wanted to rely on him and form an alliance. But now, seeing Lu Bu's strength, he felt more secure and at ease.
This sense of security comes from Lu Bu's strength, the reliability of his allies, and of course, the strength of his boss, which makes him feel particularly shocked.
Then in the future, as Lu Bu's power increases and his earth seal becomes stronger, the more power he can rely on. The more meat Lu Bu eats, the more soup he can drink. Who would think that the allies he planned to rely on are not strong enough?
What?!
Therefore, Zhang Yang was really happy, extremely happy. He was more in awe of Sima Yi. After thinking about it, he was very happy. Fortunately, he had always respected Sima Yi and had not offended him. This made him feel at ease.
!In other words, I am extremely happy!
Yuan Bing stormed under the city, exerting the force of a sea of people. Relying on perseverance, he kept moving forward, and finally reached the city and began to set up ladders. Reinforcements also continued to send dense arrows. However, the defenders did not show any signs of attack.
There was no panic, and while he defended with his shield, he began to counterattack the Yuan soldiers under the city.
They started to set up a ladder, but they saw buckets of oil pouring down and flowing down along the city wall, covering their faces.
The bows and arrows were fired with fire, and countless people burst into flames amidst the screams, but they still couldn't stop their morale to attack even if they were not afraid of death.
This is the case in war. Once you abandon the fear in your heart, risk everything, and show courage, your courage will become infinite, and it will keep rising from the bottom of your heart!
Yuan Bing is not without merit. At the beginning of the war, there was panic and chaos. But when they adapted to the battlefield and were no longer afraid of life and death, they would develop infinite courage and do whatever it takes, regardless of the fate of their comrades.
They risked everything to win, and their determination would flow out endlessly. Not only were they not afraid of the fire, they even rushed forward one after another, regardless of life and death...
They even brought a goalpost and ran it across the city gate!
Most of the people holding the goalposts and working together began to hit the city gate in a regular and rhythmic manner!
Countless people were shot and fell, and later Yuan soldiers stepped on the bodies of their dead comrades to continue the relay. There seemed to be no life or death in their eyes, only the obsession to break open the city gate.
And there was no fear at all. The constantly beating drums inspired them. Go to the city! Go home!
This Jizhou and this Ye City were originally their city and their home... They just wanted to go home!
This courage is inevitably moving.
The fires quickly connected and burned all the way along the base of the city wall. Because of the fire, Yuan Bing could not get close to the city wall for a while and set up ladders, so he kept trying to put out the fire!
Then the fire grew bigger and bigger and could not be extinguished.
Ma Teng stepped forward and looked at the courage of the people under the city to attack the city gates. He choked in his throat. If he continued to attack like this, the city gates would be broken! He was in a state of anxiety when suddenly an accident happened!
Because the fire was so fierce, it even burned the ice in the moat city. The ice under Yuan Bing's feet was no longer solid, but began to crack. Time seemed to have stopped. Only a muffled thump was heard, and countless
Yuan Bing's feet slipped and fell into the glacier. The coldness made their scalps shiver and their whole bodies seemed to be frozen. No matter how hard they tried, they seemed to be desperately trying to re-erect the crooked river.
He hit the goal post.
However, the ice will only break more and more, and then the entire moat will turn into water.
The goalpost was completely broken because too many Yuan soldiers lost their footing, and their head rushed into the moat and could not be lifted up. The people in Hanoi tried to push it up, but they couldn't do it, and the people behind
I wanted to drag it up again, but it happened to be crooked. It was too big and could not be balanced. The sky pillar completely lost its function. At least within a short period of time, it would be impossible for it to hit the city gate again.
!
Unless you drag it up first, then use human power to lift it up again and hit it in a balanced manner!
At the beginning of this momentum, Yuan Bing's momentum was like a flagpole that suddenly broke at the waist. His morale dropped drastically, and he fell into a state of anxiety and confusion. This was a kind of helplessness that he could not pick up again no matter how hard he tried. Yuan Bing instantly
They were enveloped in a desperate situation, and despair enveloped everyone's heart, making them unable to breathe!
