Chapter 1032: Between the equals
The only thing that is somewhat restricted is that the clothing left by Guo Si’s defenders was not sufficient before. Each wave of replaced iron guards must remove the clothing to the next wave of soldiers as soon as possible to avoid revealing their legs when replacing defenses.
The attacking party of Zhang Ji was completely under the arbitrary attack of the defenders. The number and power of the hunting bow and arrow branches were very limited. However, Zhang Ji's soldiers were injured or even killed by strokes.
On the other hand, no soldier was lost in Yang Rui's guards. Not to mention the loss, Zhang Ji's subordinates did not even have an attack method that could threaten the defenders on the wall before they truly climbed to the city.
In fact, Yang Rui deliberately delayed, and what he was waiting for was the arrival of Zhang Ji's army. He had made a good arrangement before. If it was just used to deal with Zhang Ji's 50,000 pioneer troops, it would be a waste.
Furthermore, Yang Rui was facing the cavalry department at this time. Once his real strength was revealed, the Zhang Ji department, who was not allowed to launch an attack outside the pass, would turn around and flee. At that time, he would not be able to catch up with him if he wanted to chase him.
Moreover, there are only infantry and no cavalry among Yang Rui's troops. What they can rely on is the easy defense and difficult attack of Tongguan. If they chase them out and fight against Zhang Ji's troops, they will be more likely to suffer losses without the advantage of military strength.
The best way for Yang Rui to take troops is to lure Zhang Ji's troops to attack. It is best to wait until the main force of Zhang Ji's troops arrives at Tongguan and join in the siege together. That is the time when Yang Rui displays his true strength.
As Taishi Ci, Zhang Ning, Han Dai, Ding Yao and others speculated, with the advantageous terrain of Tongguan, Yang Rui was sure to resist Zhang Ji's 200,000 tribes with 50,000 iron guards.
At the same time, Yang Rui also has these methods in his hands, such as the counter-use of siege equipment he had tried, and Zhang Ning's Tianling Fire Rain.
It is worth mentioning that although Yang Rui can no longer use the Daofeng Fei Carpet to assist Zhang Ning in using the Tianling Fire Rain, even if Zhang Ning only stands above Tongguan, a fire rain will be extremely powerful at the critical moment.
"Roar! Haha..."
"Swoosh!swoosh!swoosh..."
“…”
Zhang Ji's pioneer troops continued to attack for about an hour, but they had never achieved any effect. At this time, a figure came out and shouted loudly along the bamboo ladder and quickly climbed up the Tongguan city wall.
Seeing this figure approaching the city wall, it was only a blink of an eye from the moment it exploded to the wall. Yang Rui saw that his strength was excellent and immediately flew towards the position where the man was about to settle down.
There was a person in the other direction who was faster than Yang Rui and closer to the figure. He had already reached the position where the siege was about to settle, and it was Taishi Ci.
"Table! Table Tennis! Table Tennis..."
“Haha…”
"drink!"
“…”
Taishi Ci happened to meet the other party, and without saying hello, they yelled and handed over. In the blink of an eye, the two fought three moves.
At this time, Yang Rui also rushed to the place where the man was leaving. Just as he was about to take action, he saw that the man was like a monkey. After a firing shot, he climbed several times and went down the city wall along the bamboo stairs. In a blink of an eye, he had already gone far.
Taishi Ci was about to rush to chase him, but Yang Rui grabbed him. Although the two of them did not exceed two or three, Yang Rui could see clearly that Taishi Ci's strength was actually just the same as the other party.
At least the opponent's shooting skills are extremely good!
