Chapter 41 Sun Ben's complaints Fan Neng's ridicule

Thank you Gu for your reward! Thank you for your March evaluation, and even more for your monthly ticket! This name is so creative! Haha!

Outside Niuzhu City, under the banner of the central army of the Jiangdong Army, Gao Shun and Zhou Yu were watching the siege. However, the generals who were originally energetic when they went out to fight were now suffering a little.

Three days ago, after the army arrived at the city, several generals discussed and wanted to attack the city immediately while their morale was high. They were preparing to take down the city and spend the night in the city. If they could sleep comfortably in bed, it would be better than sleeping in the tent.

What the generals did not expect was that there were two old stone throwers hidden in this small Niuzhu City. After the rocks approached the city wall, the stones suddenly shot out accurately hit the rocks in front of them.

The huge impact force destroyed the tall Jinglan in just a few strokes. When the generals were stunned, countless soldiers were crushed to death and injured by the collapsed Jinglan. The first battle ended before it officially began.

Only then did the generals realize that the seemingly invincible well railing also had a nemesis.

The plan to capture the city in one go was shattered. It was too late before him, so he could only withdraw his troops and camp to fight again in the future.

The soldiers who were frustrated could only carry a ladder and forcefully charge towards the city on the second day. However, the defenders on the city were extremely well prepared. After all, most of the houses that Liu Yao had collected before were stored.

The first charge was the troops sent by Zhou Yu's 6,000 new recruits, as a tentative attack. As a result, the 1,000 troops who rushed forward were shot by nearly 30% of them by dense rain of arrows and had to retreat.

Some of these soldiers were not equipped with leather armor. After all, it would cost a lot to collect enough steel among the people.

Being able to equip them with all the weapons and military uniforms is the result of Zhou Yu's efforts to fight for the family.

The Zhou family's financial resources are still limited, and it is even more impossible to fully invest in these things. They will eventually belong to other people's soldiers. The shields in their hands were reissued only after they met with the Jiangdong Army.

As the main general, Gao Shun could not demand anything, and could only order the trap camp to attack.

Seeing the elite soldiers wearing armor move, the arrows on the top of the city were even more expensive, splashing towards the soldiers of the attacking camp. Under such a dense rain of arrows, there were always a few unlucky strokes who fell to the ground.

When the soldiers of the camp who had complete protection came to the city with slight losses, they began to climb the city with ladders. The more tragic moment finally began. At some point, the uninterrupted rain of arrows on the city suddenly stopped.

The soldiers of the attacking camp were relieved and began to climb up quickly. However, when they had just climbed halfway, the city suddenly began to fall and boil, with hot oil, and in some places, huge rolling stones and wood falling.

As the ladder went up and down, countless soldiers suddenly screamed and fell down. The huge rock pounding wood fell from a high place with huge force. All the bodies they encountered were blooming, their tendons and bones broke. There were also many who were smashed into meat pies on the spot.

Since the establishment of the camp, it has encountered a heavy blow in the siege for the first time. When the raging flames under the city began to burn, and countless soldiers who were splashed with oil were struggling to die in the flames, Gao Shun finally rang the sound of the gong sounding gold.

He was not afraid of the soldiers' death in the charge, but he was really reluctant to bear such huge casualties. Every soldier here put in his countless efforts and was the treasure in his heart.

In this battle, the camp that was almost unprepared to underestimate the enemy, suffered extremely heavy losses. One thousand people went up, and only more than two hundred people could come back. What made Gao Shun most heartbreaking was the nearly 200 veterans who had the first to join him.

These people are the real elites in the camp and the essence of the camp. With the expansion of the team, these people have at least become backbones such as some.

But this group of people charged at the forefront, and the casualties were naturally the most severe. How could this prevent Gao Shun from bleeding?

The battle situation inevitably fell into a stalemate. As long as the turbulent oil, wood, and rolling stones on the top of the city were not consumed, it would be impossible to easily capture this small city without the trap camp assisted by the well railing.

But this is a supply transit station with sufficient defenders and abundant supplies. If they want to wait for them to consume the materials to defend the city, they must have to wait for a long time. And during this period, they still have to know how many soldiers' lives will be filled in.

But not fighting is not a solution, so wait. No one can throw all the materials that defend the city down by themselves. He still has to use his life to rush! On this day, Gao Shun could only grit his teeth and order the siege again.

The siege was in full swing, but suddenly a scout came to report it.

"Reported, the high school captain, a group of people came from the east Moling. The number was about 5,000, and the purpose of the trip was unknown. However, the military flag should be Fan Neng who retreated from Hengjiang last time, and Yu Mi two generals!"

Hearing the scout's report, Gao Shun said in surprise: "Hey! Didn't they retreat to Moling? How could they come here? The lord shouldn't be defeated in a small place like Moling!"

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "That's definitely not. It must be that the lord has captured Moling. The group of soldiers brought by Fan Neng and the other generals Mi should be just the remnants of Moling who retreated.

College Captain, look, their soldiers are scattered in their armor, and some of them have never even had weapons. How can they be considered a well-equipped hero?”

Zhou Yu's reasonable analysis made Gao Shunshu open his eyebrows. However, he was still a little hesitant. I wonder if the entire army immediately ceased to fight against the enemy and wiped out the remaining soldiers first, or just part of the troops to fight.

While hesitating, Sun Ben, who was on the left wing, shouted: "No matter where he came from, let me meet them!"

Before Gao Shun could agree, he had already brought his three thousand soldiers to face the group of enemies with unknown intentions.

After being interrupted by him, Gao Shun shook his head helplessly, looked at Zhou Yu and smiled bitterly. He could only command the army to continue to attack the city.

Since he was ordered by his cousin Sun Ce to attack Niuzhu with Gao Shun, he could only be a spectator. Sun Ben felt very wronged. He was dissatisfied with Sun Ce's order, which made him complain to Zhou Yu and Gao Shun.

"However, I think Sun Ben is also a dignified general of the Han Dynasty's capture and the closest relative of the Sun family!

Over the years, since I followed my uncle, I have fought many battles in the south and north, and have fought countless times. Not to mention the great achievements of the war, I am at least a meritorious old man with great hard work!

But my cousin handed over tens of thousands of troops to some people of other surnames. Although Gao Shun is not bad at all, can he really fight for my Sun family wholeheartedly like his own family?

I actually asked me, the general cousin, to obey the command of two such young lieutenant-level generals. If I were to be overthrown, I would have nothing to say to the old men and other veterans who led the army in the future.

This Sun Bofu is really too immature! I actually believe that two outsiders who are ten years younger than me are, have suffered a great loss when I was careless about the siege!

It would be better if my troops were not allowed to attack the city. Do you want to suppress us veterans? I want to make a contribution to the other way. At that time, if you are not good at attacking the city, you will be a meritorious person to stop the enemy. It seems that you still dare to be proud and complacent in front of us veterans!"

In fact, before the division of troops to fight, Sun Ce did not arrange for Gao Shun or Zhou Yu to lead Sun Ben. Sun Ce himself was a well-deserved lord and there was no problem of leadership.

In addition, Gao Shun and Zhou Yu who were able to stand alone this time, he did ignore his cousin who only had three thousand soldiers. In Sun Ce's mind, fighting requires mutual discussion and cooperation to fight a good battle.

After a moment of negligence, he forgot to explain who should be the main general among the three. However, the other staff officers thought that the lord had already made arrangements and did not ask in a hurry.

Zhou Yu can be said to be his first official battle. Since Sun Ce did not explain to him as the main general, he naturally regarded himself as his deputy. Just be a good adviser for Gao Shun. After all, it is more important to learn practical experience than master military power for the first time.

Gao Shun was even more unable to beat a single person who was accustomed to the faction. He was used to being trapped in the camp. However, he never thought of obeying the orders of people other than the lord. The communication mistakes between several masters almost resulted in a big defeat!

In this era, if you don’t have the clear orders of your superiors, your subordinates will naturally take the dominance. After all, Gao Shun’s official position is considered a lieutenant, and although there is a gap with Sun Ben’s general, the arrogant soldiers and generals under him are not something that ordinary people can command.

Sun Ben, who felt that he was despised by everyone, wanted to vent his feelings to the enemy with some complaints about Sun Ce.

Without hesitation, he rushed to block Fan Nengjun with his three thousand pieces.

Looking at the ragged mobs in front of him, Sun Ben shouted in a somewhat contemptuous tone: "Who is here? What are you here? I am the current governor of Yuzhou, and Sun Ben, the general of the conquering general!"

Sun Ben shouted out his name loudly to the enemy general, which was of three meaning to the two young generals behind him.

Feeling Sun Ben's contempt, Fan Neng laughed rather than angry. He turned to Yu Mi and said, "Brother Yu, wasn't the governor of Yuzhou just granted the imperial court to the one named Liu Bei and Liu Xuande? Why did another guy called himself the governor of Yuzhou come here?

Hehe! Interestingly, Brother Yu, the world is really a mess, and Lord Governor can also be praised."

Hearing Fan Neng's ridicule, Yu Mi added fuel to the fire and said, "What my brother said is exactly. I also heard that Liu Bei was fat and big, long and short, but he looked like a pig. However, the guy in front of him was sharp-mouthed and monkey cheeks, and he had no fat meat.

It seems that he is a pretender! If you want to pretend to be an official, you have to choose a similar person. Just call him a name and say he is yourself. You are too shameless! I also say that he is the invincible Lu Wenhou! Haha!"

The harsh laughter made Sun Ben, who was repeatedly despised, feel deeply ashamed.
