Lu Bu’s Life Simulator
Chapter 86 Survival from Desperation
Ma Chao's attack naturally returned in vain. Although the defenders had less than 500 men, neither Ma Chao nor Ma Teng had expected the sudden appearance of the city wall. There was no siege equipment in the army. )’s city wall is no longer something that soldiers can rush up by cooperating with each other.
The reason why Ma Chao was so ferocious was because he was sure that the city wall that was built overnight must have been deceived by Zhang Liao. It is impossible for anyone in this world to build a city overnight.
So he personally risked Shi Shi and rushed to the city with a shield on his back, just to verify the authenticity of the city wall and expose Zhang Liao's lies!
However, he was disappointed. The city wall was not only real, but also very strong. There were ice slags everywhere on it. Although the spear could pierce some holes, it was obviously impossible to break through the defense of the city wall.
But what left Ma Chao speechless the most was that the city wall had no gates!
How could they attack without even a ladder? In addition to shooting each other with the defenders at the top of the city, even if they killed all the defenders at the top of the city, how to climb up would be a problem.
After Ma Chao threw a dozen shots at the city wall as if venting, he retreated with the demoralized soldiers indignantly.
Father, the city wall is real. The child is incompetent and failed to break through the city! Ma Chao said with a dejected look on his face: The other party's city wall was poured with water and sand overnight and then frozen. It is difficult to break through in a hurry!
Ordinary people have little knowledge and are still marveling at how the city wall was built, but Ma Chao understood the principle of the city wall. It is not a miracle, but just the tricks of the Liao dog thief.
But what's the use even if you know? Morale is indeed lost. This morale is not a simple addition and subtraction. Even if you explain it clearly to all the soldiers, the morale will not come back as soon as you say it. And how do you explain it to tens of thousands of soldiers? When the explanation is clear, the reinforcements here should also arrive.
Zhang Liao's occupation of Wuyin cut off all of Ma Teng's back routes. Even if he wanted to go back to Yuzhong now and go to Zuli; I am afraid that when he returned to the army, he would most likely meet Lu Bu's main force.
Zhang Wenyuan almost defeated his army with hundreds of people yesterday, what would happen if Lu Bu led the army instead?
Although he has hardly formally fought against Lu Bu, judging from the abilities of Lu Bu's subordinates, Hua Xiong and Zhang Liao, Ma Teng no longer has much confidence to fight against Lu Bu, and with his current strength, he will be able to match Lu Bu's main force. , Basically, it is no different from sending to death.
So what Ma Teng can do now is to defeat Zhang Liao as soon as possible, and then defend this Yinyin with heavy troops. As long as he defends here, he can continue to deal with Lu Bu.
but……
How can you fight a city wall that doesn't even have a city gate! ?
Looking at the city wall built by Zhang Liao overnight, Ma Teng's mood was similar to that of his son Ma Chao when he saw the city wall. He wanted to scold his mother. There is no equipment in the city, so people can only collect wood around and build some simple ladders, and they can't even make ladders.
The cloud ladders on the city walls cannot be moved unless fire is used, and this kind of temporary wooden ladders can be easily knocked down with spears. One can imagine the efficiency of using such things to attack the city.
But there is no way, in a hurry, where can I find the ladder? That's not something you can build if you want to. You need a serious craftsman. Ordinary soldiers don't have this skill.
Therefore, when he stood on the city wall and watched Ma Jiajun carrying dozens of simple ladders and began to rush towards the city wall, he knew that at least it would be no problem to hold here today.
Although the soldiers were already exhausted, they had no choice but to work hard at the time of life and death.
The Ma family army rushed towards the city wall like ants, and the soldiers at the top of the city pushed down those ladders again and again. There were no stones, and ice cubes were thrown down continuously as stones. It was not much worse than stones when they hit people.
Zhang Liao, Song Xian, and Cheng Lian kept wandering around the city wall, beheading the soldiers of the Ma family army who rushed up desperately. The killing battle between the two sides became fierce from the very beginning. Under the oppression, the defenders suffered heavy casualties. Later, what Zhang Liao and his three did the most was not to kill the enemy, but to force the soldiers who wanted to retreat back.
Zhang Liao underestimated Ma Teng's determination to take down Shuyin. He had no way out and had to go all out. Not only did he use a ladder to rush towards the city wall, but he even made a fire under the city wall. The city wall was built with ice. , Once the ice water melts, the city wall will naturally collapse.
By the afternoon, there were many gaps in the city wall built that night. Although it hadn't completely collapsed, it was almost there.
I can't hold it anymore! Song Xian and Cheng Lian hoarsely said, looking at the crumbling city wall, they turned to look at Zhang Liao. Are they really going to die here?
Zhang Liao sighed, naturally he didn't want to stick to it, especially when he couldn't hold on even if he stuck to it.
They opened their mouths and were about to order to retreat when the familiar sound of horns pierced through the noisy battlefield and fell into their ears.
Zhang Liao's spirit was shaken, and he looked up. In the distance where the sky and the earth meet, a black line is constantly squirming and thickening!
Reinforcements, our reinforcements are here! Soldiers, hold on a little longer! Zhang Liao's eyes were shining with excitement, and he raised his ring sword and shouted loudly. Although he didn't know if it was reinforcements, it was right to say so.
Everyone saw it too, although it was impossible to tell if it was reinforcements from this distance, but it didn't matter, Zhang Liao said yes, it must be, and they have been guarding for most of the day, and it's still a quarter of an hour away?
The soldiers who were already exhausted, when Ma Teng thought that he was about to take down the damned ice wall, the defenders on the wall suddenly burst out with amazing will, and drove the Ma family army who rushed up the wall down.
My lord, there are a large number of enemy troops behind! Pang De rushed to Ma Teng and shouted.
What!? Ma Teng was shocked when he heard the words, and quickly turned his horse to look around. At this time, the opponent was much closer, and he could already see many figures. The most important thing was that the opponent's flag was already faintly visible.
Isn't it Lu Bu's flag? And the opponent has a lot of troops. If the opponent takes the opportunity to attack at this time, he will be attacked by the enemy.
Yesterday, Zhang Liao took the opportunity to attack for a while, and almost made a miracle that tens of thousands of troops were defeated by five hundred soldiers. Now that a large number of enemy troops have appeared, Ma Teng is unwilling, but he also knows that the siege cannot continue, so he can only order a quick withdrawal and return to the camp. .
The Qiang soldiers led by brothers Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong came naturally. The city wall that had almost collapsed was pushed down by Zhang Liao's order. Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong took the opportunity to lead the army over.
Looking at the tragic situation on the city wall, even Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong knew that this battle was not easy to fight, so they were also taken aback.
Of the 700 Bingzhou fine cavalry that Lu Bu gave Zhang Liao, there are only more than 100 left. Many died in battle, but many were beheaded by Zhang Liao, Song Xian, and Cheng Lian because they could not bear the pressure. However, the corpses of the enemy soldiers who died outside the city were already piled up like a mountain. In order to win this battle, Ma Teng drove the soldiers into the battlefield after several times of morale drops. There are several times more corpses here, and the corpses have piled up like a mountain under the city wall.
This is also the reason why Ma Teng immediately retreated as soon as Jiang Xu and the others appeared. Judging from the morale at the time, if they encountered a large-scale battle, even if the opponent was a group of mobs, they would undoubtedly lose.
What's more, this Qiang soldier fought with Zhang Liao after this period of time. Both the combat experience and the ability to receive orders have been greatly improved. It can no longer be evaluated by the mob. The odds are high.
At this moment, looking at the corpses of those robes, these are the elites who came out from Bingzhou, and seeing the corpses of these soldiers being moved down, Zhang Liao watched silently. It echoed the desperate and tragic roar on the city wall not long ago.
General, the future is late! Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong looked at Zhang Liao, Song Xian, and Cheng Lian, stepped forward and bowed.
It's already very fast. Zhang Liao shook his head. According to his prediction, the two of them could arrive within a day, which would have met the expectation. For a moment, Zhang Liao was about to give up the city wall. Of course, it would have been better if it had been done a moment earlier, so that people would not feel that sense of despair.
The thieves already know how our army built the city, and there is no need to hide it, Zhongming! Zhang Liao looked at Song Xian.
The end is here! Song Xian took a step forward.
You instruct Boyi and Zhongyi to build this ice city stronger. Before the lord comes, we must stick to this place! Zhang Liao said.
With the addition of Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong and these thousands of Qiang soldiers, relying on the geographical advantages, it is no problem to guard this Yinyin. The next step is how to calm down or subdue the Ma family beautifully.
Here! Song Xian promised, there were not enough manpower last night, and it was done in the dark. If it is not dark today, it will be easier to do it.
Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong saluted Zhang Liao and turned to leave.
Zhang Liao looked at the corpses that had been brought back. With the danger gone and no one around him, his mind relaxed and he couldn't hold back any longer. His eyes began to turn red. If you want to say that the person who has the deepest affection for these soldiers here is He brought these soldiers out single-handedly. Since Luoyang, he has lived and ate with these soldiers. On the battlefield, he can kill the retreating soldiers without hesitation. Zhang Liao felt like a knife was piercing his heart when he died in such a foreign land, especially because many people here actually died by his knife. It is difficult for others to empathize with the feeling of helplessness and guilt entangled.
After a long time, after Zhang Liao calmed down, he recruited a few people to bury the corpses of these soldiers. Although they couldn't take them back, they couldn't let these brothers expose their corpses to the wilderness.
As for the corpses of the Ma Jiajun outside the city, it was simple, they were piled up and burned.
