Chapter 696: Siege with Victory
Shortly after Wu Shun led his troops back to Changshe, Zhang Xiong, Qu A and Zhao Yun led their troops back.
Because it was the rear end, the three of them were killed so hard that they were covered in blood. I don’t know how many of them belong to their own or how many of them belong to the enemy.
After seeing Wu Shun, Zhang Xiong grinned and said, "Brother, Cao Cao is too timid. He is known as a 100,000 army, but he doesn't even dare to chase us 6,000 soldiers who have cut off the rear!"
After hearing what Zhang Xiong said, Wu Shun couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Cao Cao is so suspicious!
Zhang Xiong forgot such an important point. Who wants to retreat in a war and will use elite troops to cut off the rear?
The Wuling Army retreated because of the withdrawal. What does it mean to leave behind the most elite Qilin Cavalry and Baihu Camp? As Wu Shun's personal guard camp, Qu A and heavy cavalry broke the rear, how could Cao Cao dare to chase after him?
"I made a mistake, but this is fine. Your team has not suffered much loss, so it is easier to supplement it."
Wu Shun said.
After each battle, the Wuling Army will replenish its troops and maintain the most complete organization as much as possible.
"Lord, although Cao Cao did not pursue him, Cao's army still came to Changshe and needed to strengthen defense."
At this time, Zhao Yun came out and told his guess.
"Let me tell me, let's gather the army, fight out of the city and counterattack Cao's army!"
Zhang Xiong is a militant, a murderer! He can never forget the battle and fighting!
His unruly suggestion was directly rejected by Wu Shun. Cao Cao's army of 100,000 will be conquered, so he has to give him some face no matter what.
"During the East, have the giant crossbows and catapults used for defense been arranged?"
Wu Shun asked Dongfang Qiang.
When the troops are insufficient, you have to rely on these heavy weapons to defend the city! Moreover, if you have the advantages of the city wall, why not use the power of the heavy weapons?
"Lord, the soldiers are ready. As long as Cao's army dares to attack the city, they will definitely be defeated and returned!"
Dongfang Qiang said.
The Suzaku Legion retreated the fastest just now. When they were fighting, they were all archers. The soldiers of the Suzaku Legion who were staying in Changshe had already done their defense.
...
The Wuling Army took the initiative to retreat, but in the eyes of Cao's army, the arrogant Wuling Army was killed by them.
Therefore, when Cao Cao led his troops to overthrow the city, the morale of Cao's army was unprecedentedly high.
People outside the city shouted that the horses were neighing, and the wind was cold! But it could not resist Cao's enthusiasm for siege!
"Lord, the morale of the army is available!"
Xun You felt the changes in Cao's army today and couldn't help but sigh. Since Cao's army fought against Wuling Army, the most morale is now!
"Can you attack the city?"
Cao Cao asked.
"You can attack the city!"
"It can be attacked!"
Xun You and Guo Jia agreed that they could attack the city. The Cao army soldiers took victory to attack the city, and their fighting spirit was high. Even if they could not be defeated, they could still kill and injure the Wuling Army in large numbers.
"Okay, send the order!"
"Siege!"
Cao Cao drew his sword and pointed at Changshe City!
Dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong...
The war drums in Cao's army were bursting.
The Cao army soldiers lined up in a neat row and moved forward slowly. Six thunderbolt cars lined up in a row, and were also slowly moving forward...
Behind the Thunderbolt car are four well railings and a rushing car for siege gates. Then there is a ladder carried by Cao's soldiers.
Wu Shun looked down on the city tower and couldn't count the number of ladders at once!
"Dongfang, Cao Cao made up his mind this time, are you sure to destroy those big guys?"
The Cao army was not moving fast, as if they wanted to create a tense atmosphere for the Wuling Army. Unfortunately, everyone present was elite, not to mention that with the Suzaku Legion, the soldiers did not feel depressed at all.
What they have is the excitement and excitement of killing enemies and making contributions!
"Don't worry, lord, Cao's thunderbolt car is good, but my Wuling Army's thunderbolt car has a longer attack range!"
Dongfangqiang is very confident. This confidence comes from his excellent military skills. The catapult car of the Suzaku Legion has been transformed several times, but it is not comparable to the thunder carriage of the Cao army.
Cao's thunderbolt carriage has wooden wheels underneath, which can move short distances on the battlefield and has an astonishing range of 300 steps. However, after the improvement of the Weapons, Wuling's thrust carriage can throw stone bullets to a distance of 350 steps.
The gap of fifty steps is undoubtedly a natural barrier under the "turtle-speed" movement speed of the Thunderbolt Car!
"Report to the lord, Cao's army is about to enter the range of the catapult car!"
On the city tower, there was a small school of the Zhuque Legion calculating distance. When the Cao army's thunder chariot was about to enter the range, it immediately reported to Wu Shun.
"As long as you enter the attack range, you will attack hard and destroy the thunder chariots and well railings first!"
Wu Shun ordered.
"yes!"
The man immediately returned to the observation position and carefully calculated the distance.
Bangbangbang...
A crisp sound came from behind the Changshe City Wall, and more than twenty fire bombs took off, dragging their long tails and roaring towards Cao's army.
On the city wall, the Wuling Army soldiers were all admiring such a spectacular scene.
Click... click...
The fire bomb hit Cao's army's thunder chariot formation, and immediately two well railings and a catapult car were hit by the fire bomb. The huge force directly tore it apart and destroyed it.
After being hit hard, Cao's army's advance speed became much faster! Because they could fight back if they were closer!
Ideals are full and realistic.
The Wuling Army's catapult car needed to "reload" and "accumulate power". The same was true for Cao's thunder carriage. The most important thing is that they have not reached the designated position.
When Cao's soldiers tried hard to push the catapult cart three hundred steps away from the city wall, the second wave of fire from the Wuling Army came. Suddenly, four more Thunderbolt carts fell apart.
Faced with this situation, Cao Cao was helpless!
The range is insufficient, so I can only take two strokes first. Fortunately, the Thunderbolt car "loads" quickly and starts counterattack soon!
"rush!"
When the Pili Chariot counterattack began, the Cao army soldiers rushed up. They came to attack the city, and the Pili Chariot just suppressed the enemy for them. Whether they could take the Changshe or not depends on their lives.
Cao's army launched a charge, and Wuling army was ready to go under Wu Shun's order.
Boom boom boom boom~
A huge sound came, and Zhuge's giant crossbow was the first to show its power. Ten giant crossbows on the city tower fired volleys, and crossbow arrows as thick as arms penetrated into the Cao army's crowd, causing panic!
In fact, the legion did not kill much, but the scene was too bloody!
"Cao Jun really wants to die!"
Looking at Cao Jun coming quickly under the city, Wu Shun gave this comment.
After three consecutive long-range strikes, Cao's morale had almost no effect. It seems that his retreat just now gave Cao's soldiers too much confidence.
This is not very good!
"Dongfangqiang, it's up to you."
Wu Shun threw the command power to the professional Dongfang Qiang. After all, he is the boss of the Suzaku Legion and is most familiar with this kind of long-range consumption.
Dongfang Qiang did not shirk responsibility and immediately took over the command.
"Arrow ready!"
Dongfang Qiang ordered that Cao's army rushed quickly and had almost entered a distance of 100 steps.
"Shoot the arrow!"
When Cao's army entered the range, Wu Shun ordered without hesitation.
"Raising the shield!"
"Road forward!"
In the Cao army, the generals kept shouting and shouting. The Cao army soldiers rushed forward with rain-like arrows!
Many people were shot by an arrow before they could run a few steps...
The Cao army was full of morale and fierce attacks. He was so hard that he put the ladder on the city wall.
"The spearman comes forward!"
"Current oil is ready!"
“…”
