Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 392 City Defense Battle ([-])

While defending against the rain of arrows from the sky, they also had to put out the fire on the long ladder. How could the bandits take care of everything, and the formation soon became chaotic.

"Ah! It's a pity that there are no arrows, such a great shooting opportunity wasted!"

Tian Yu beat his chest and sighed, he had shot all the feathered arrows, and the next step was to wait for the bandits to approach and use stones and logs to defend.

The same is true for the consumption of Zhaozhao. He has experienced more battles than Tian Yu, and it is initially estimated that it will not be difficult to block the enemy's first wave of attacks.

But he was worried about the enemy's follow-up troops.

The enemy camp outside the city was not far away, and Qianzhao clearly saw a bandit soldier wearing Jizhou soldier equipment.

Those equipment should be the loot obtained by the bandits after capturing other counties, and with the same equipment as the defenders of Zhending City, the combat power of the bandits in Heishan will be raised to another level.

The opponent had a total of 4000 rebels, while the defenders had only [-] soldiers.

In the case of the same equipment, the advantage of the number of people will be infinitely magnified.

The Montenegrin bandits are equipped with better weapons and leather armor, and Qian Zhaore thinks it is necessary to report this situation to the lord Liu Yu.

"The feather arrows are all exhausted, go and report the situation of the enemy and us to the lord!"

In his impression, Liu Yu was not like a person who just kept defending. Before the war, he and Tian Yu were only ordered to withstand the enemy's first wave of offensive.

Therefore, Qianzhao felt that Liu Yu must still have a backup.

At this time, in the camp in the city, Liu Yu was selecting again from among the five hundred elites.

After some selection, 100 people were finally left.

These 100 people formed a team with [-] shadow guards and stood in front of the camp waiting for Liu Yu's lecture.

"All of you are elites who have been selected by thousands of people. Since you are elites, you must be treated as elites."

"In the future, your military salary will be doubled, and weapons and equipment will also be distributed uniformly."

After Liu Yu finished speaking, he asked people to bring out two hundred sets of Mingguang armor and two hundred Mo knives.

One hundred shadow guards were envious of their companions' new equipment, and the selected Yibai Jingzhuang had never seen such excellent force and armor.

Soon the 200 people finished changing their costumes, and then formed a small team of 300 people with the original [-] Shadow Guards.

"Zilong goes out, and the 300 people are under your command. When the bandits attack the city, you go out from the city gate and kill them by surprise!"

"With Zhao Yun's order, the Lord's prestige will not be dishonored!"

Zhao Yun had already seen the power of Mo Dao and Mingguang Armor, and it was no problem to count one as ten.

Now this team equipped with the most powerful equipment in the late Han Dynasty has expanded to 300 people. This combat power is scary even thinking about it.

…………

The formation of the thieves was in disarray for a moment, and by the way Zhang sensed a good opportunity to regain morale.

"Don't be afraid, there are no arrows in the city, brothers, charge me! The first one to kill the top of the city will be rewarded with a thousand catties of food!"

The bandit soldiers are most afraid of the bow and arrow soldiers. As soon as they heard that there were no arrows in the city, the Black Mountain bandits immediately got excited.

"Kill..."

More than 4000 bandit soldiers shouted and rushed to the bottom of the city wall, lined up and then set up long ladders to attack the city.

But just after the long ladder was erected, countless stones and heavy logs fell from the sky, killing and injuring thousands of bandit soldiers. In addition, many siege equipment were smashed to pieces and could not be used anymore.

The two thousand guards were divided into groups, leaving almost no room for attack. Each person threw three to four stones, which was equivalent to tens of thousands of blows.

However, less than [-] bandit soldiers rushed to the bottom of the city, and less than a hundred of them escaped alive after the beating.

"Little brother is incompetent, please punish me."

Zhang Shun fled back to the battlefield in embarrassment, and immediately knelt down to plead guilty as soon as they met.

Zhang Yan's expression was serious, but he didn't mean much to blame.

"Get up, your task is basically completed, let's look at Li Tou-Lan and Guo-To-Lan next!"

In fact, Zhang Yan already knew that it was impossible for Zhang Shun to attack the city wall. The 5000 men he sent first were cannon fodder to test the defense of Zhending City.

Now that the city has run out of feathers and arrows, and it is impossible to quickly replenish the stones and heavy wood, it is time for him to call in two ace troops to play a role.

But although Zhang Yan was sincere enough, Li Damu and Guo Daxian were not as active as they appeared on the surface.

The two are attached to Zhang Yan in name, but they both have their own territory and soldiers. When they encounter soft persimmons, they will all compete first.

"Our department has just arrived here, and we are exhausted..." Li Damu looked troubled, and Guo Daxian also shook his head and sighed.

"Brother Li is right. The morale of the subordinates is low. Don't force them to fight. It will easily lead to mutiny!"

Zhang Yan's teeth were itching in anger, the two men were full of energy, their morale was low, it was obvious that these two were unwilling to contribute.

"Two leaders, you just saw that there are not many bows, arrows and stones in Zhending City. If there is no accident, the city wall can be breached in a single battle. At that time, the supplies, food and grass in the city will be..."

As soon as he heard about the supplies and food in the city, Li Damu lost his temper, and Guo Daxian hurriedly coughed a few times.

"Oh, Brother Li and I really need to rest for a while, otherwise we will ask the big boss to attack again. If we win, everyone is happy, and we will not compete with the big boss. If we fail to win the battle, the two of us will fight again. It’s not too late to fight.”

Guo Daxian was quick-witted, he had already seen that the guards in the city were quite powerful, and it would not be easy to win even without the suppression of bows, arrows and stones, so he dragged Li Damu to wait.

Zhang Yan looked angry, but couldn't express it, and cursed inwardly, "I still want my people to be cannon fodder, I only hate my elite subordinates staying in the base camp, otherwise, how could these two incompetent bastards be allowed to bargain!"

Zhang Yan had nothing to do with them, after all, the current strength alone was not enough to capture Zhending City.

"In this case, Zhang Shun, you will lead another 5000 people to charge for a while!"

If Zhang Shun folded this formation again, then Zhang Yan would only have the last 5000 people left. If Li Damu and Guo Daxian were still unwilling to make a move at that time, they could only retreat.

Zhang Yan was afraid that the two would not be willing to contribute, so she thought of a tempting way to keep them.

"I heard that there are a group of super-defensive armor in the city, which cannot be pierced by ordinary swords and guns. There is also an extremely sharp knife that can easily cut off spears and spears. After the city is captured, I will share it with the two leaders. That precious armor and precious sword!"

When they heard that there was a precious sword and armor in the city, Guo Daxian and Li Damu both showed greedy eyes after hearing this.

What the black mountain bandits lack is not food, grass and supplies. There are nearly 80 million old and weak women and children in the continuous Taihang Mountains. feed.

What they lack most is weapons and equipment, especially sophisticated equipment. If hundreds of thousands of black bandits are fully equipped, their combat effectiveness will definitely increase a lot, and they will have the strength to capture the city instead of nesting on the Taihang Mountain.

"Don't worry, chief, when Zhang Shun has attacked for a while, I will definitely lead someone to charge up!"

Under Zhang Yan's lure, Li Damu immediately clapped his hands and promised.
