463. Chapter 463 Jiuquan Raiders Twenty-two

As time passed, the catapults on the city wall were still creaking and swinging, while the catapults on the mountains were gradually buried under the stones...

The earthen mountain, which was not too strong, suffered such a devastating blow, and suddenly a landslide occurred, and a large area of ​​sand and soil dispersed down the mountain. Obviously, it was not suitable for troops to be stationed up there.

In this catapult confrontation, the Liangzhou coalition lost.

The cheers from behind the Liangzhou coalition camp gradually stopped. Such a dramatic reversal made the people of Fulu City feel confused and at a loss!

Zeng Yu's frown became deeper and deeper. This was a completely disproportionate battle!

No wonder Zhang Liao has the support to fight against him! Are there elites on top of the city? There is actually a large-scale Thousand Battles slingers? Their corps skills are just the nemesis of slinging! However, there is no way to attack the city.

There are all kinds of things. I don’t believe that if he can guard against this kind, he can guard against others.

The current Liangzhou coalition has many famous generals, and with the help of Su Ze, the local governor, it is only a matter of time before they can defeat Zhang Liao.

Cheng Gongying, who was about to make a move at the side, shouted in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, this Liao traitor is so arrogant with the strength of the city's elite troops! Our Jincheng soldiers are also elites who have fought in thousands of battles, and are not inferior to them. A certain family is willing to take an elite team, and in

The city is calling for war!"

Su Ze stroked his hands and smiled and said: "General Cheng Gongying is the successor designated by Lord Han Sui. Although he is still among the second-rate generals, he will soon become a first-rate general! The soldiers in his hands are the best among the elite left by Lord Han Sui!"

It’s really appropriate for you to take charge!”

Zeng Yu also needed someone to restore his prestige, which had been damaged by Zhang Liao. Cheng Gongying was considered a seasoned general and a strong supporter of his own side, so he should be allowed to fight.

"It's really a blessing for Zeng Yu that General Cheng Gong can go to war." Zeng Yu nodded in agreement.

Calling for battle under the city is a method of provoking the generals in the siege. They use curses and ridicules to provoke the generals out of the city. The generals of the two armies will fight to determine the outcome. If they can kill the enemy generals during the confrontation, the city will also be defeated.

You can attack without attacking. If the enemy general can kill the enemy general, it can also greatly boost morale or make the enemy retreat without fighting.

However, we must also abide by the principles. We cannot bully the minority with more, and we cannot attack in groups. Wheel fighting can only be considered acceptable.

Although Zhang Liao was a famous general of the generation, the two generals Cheng Gongying and Li Kan took turns with each other, and the winning rate was quite high.

When the two armies were fighting, they should have used any means. If they could lure Zhang Liao out of the city and then recruit the troops to join them, Zhang Liao would be crushed to pieces.

However, this was the prevailing atmosphere at this time. In full view of hundreds of thousands of people, Zeng Yu could not do this, otherwise his wisdom would be lost and the gain would not be worth the loss.

Cheng Gongying was ordered to step down from the general platform and called Li Kan to accompany them. The two ordered 50,000 elite troops from their headquarters and set up a formation at the foot of the city. All the troops shouted in unison: "Zhang Liao, traitor, invade our Liangzhou! You have the guts under the city."

A battle!”

"Zhang Liao, the traitor, is attacking Liangzhou! Let's fight in the city!"



As a top-notch general, Zhang Liao was embarrassed to be called out like this by a second-rate general. After shouting like this three or four times, the city gate was opened. Zhang Liao led 20,000 elite soldiers out of the city with only a handful of steel in his hand.

He didn't even hold the knife or even the commonly used halberd, his eyes were full of disdain.

"Cheng Gongying! How dare you, a man like you, call for battle at the gate of the city?" Zhang Liao left his troops and horses in place to hold down the formation, then came forward alone, clamped his legs under the horse's belly, his eyes flashed with cold light, and with a yell he tore apart the fighting generals.

the prologue.

Cheng Gongying snorted coldly, held his long spear and pointed it directly in front of Zhang Liao: "Whether it works or not, you will know after doing it once!"

"Bang bang!"

The soldiers were fighting hand to hand, and the sound of gold and iron clashing could be heard endlessly. The steel knife in Zhang Liao's hand could be seen moving forward and back, sometimes slashing the head, sometimes splitting the long shaft, and sometimes the tip of the knife went straight to the middle door.

The long sword in Cheng Gongying's hand was either pointed, flicked or swept, completely blocking Zhang Liao's fierce offensive.

Between fighting generals, this kind of move is just a test. The most powerful one is the duel between generals' skills. Zhang Liao inherited Lu Bu's Fangtian Painted Halberd, but his ancestral sword skills are not inferior to others.

After a few rounds of handover and preliminary testing, he used his ancestral sword skills.

"Martial Arts: Leopard Sword (Advanced), swing your wrist, shake out dozens of energy, block the opponent's back and forth. Sword attack +300%, attached attributes, expand wounds, cut, slow, cool down for 10 minutes."

The extremely hot sword energy, urged by Zhang Liao, "swish, swish, swish!" dozens of volleys shot out, forcing Cheng Gongying to take back his weapons and defend.

But at this moment, Zhang Liao actually took out the steel knife in his hand and shot it out. The sharp blade scraped in the air with a harsh sound, and went straight to Cheng Gongying's door. Zhang Liao himself immediately turned over and flew into the air.

Li Ma, pulled out a sharp soft sword from his waist, followed closely behind the steel sword with a cold light trembling.

It is difficult for first-rate generals and second-rate generals to compete in terms of fighting generals or military tactics, not to mention Zhang Liao is still the leader among first-rate generals!

Under the pressure of Zhang Liao using both swords and swords, Cheng Gongying kept retreating and almost rolled off his horse due to an accident. He was in a very embarrassed state.

"Zhang Liao, the dog thief, don't be complacent!" Li Kan came over on horseback, raised his long sword to cut off Zhang Liao's offensive, and saved Cheng Gongying from danger.

After getting help, the two generals went up side by side, but they could only fight to a draw in the hands of Zhang Liao, who only had a soft sword in his hand.

Zhang Liao also had an intention to leave a trace in everything so that they could meet each other in the future. He did not want to kill Cheng Gongying and Li Kan among the generals, but deliberately left a glimmer of hope.

After a period of ping-pong-pong fighting, no one could do anything to the other, and the two armies retreated after the golden sound.

Being able to fight Zhang Liao, a legendary general, was already a victory for Li Kan and Cheng Gongying! When they returned to the coalition camp, thousands of troops cheered, sweeping away the decadence that Zhang Liao had previously suppressed.

null.

Where Zeng Yu was located in the central army, the crowds were even louder, shouting victory.

This time, Zhang Liao's retention allowed Zeng Yu to completely regain his previous determination and self-confidence. This Zhang Liao was not determined to fight to the death! He said coldly: "The morale is available, let's fight a tough battle with Zhang Liao and see who wins."

Toughen up your fists! Since even small moves can’t compare to Zhang Wenyuan, who is well prepared! Then let’s fight with real swords and guns.”

Next to him, Su Ze and all the generals in the Hu Ce Mansion were infected by Zeng Yu's confidence, and their faces showed excitement.

You know, Zeng Yu had strongly opposed the forced siege of the city before to prevent excessive losses. However, if you want to conquer such a strong city in front of you, how can you conquer it without bloodshed?

With Zhang Liao in a state where the walls of the city were fortified and the countryside was clear, it had become a luxury to hope to conquer this majestic city through tunnels or by making noise inside the city.

War! It must be washed with blood to show the bravery of the men of Liangzhou! The new nobles of Hu Ce Mansion are like women, like women, like Tianshu and others. They all need to show their bravery in front of the Liangzhou coalition forces.

Only then can these Liangzhou people who participated in the war recognize the Huce Mansion from the bottom of their hearts.

At this time, the sun rose high in the sky and illuminated the earth. The weapons shone brightly with the brilliant sunlight, and the killing atmosphere began to unfold.

The forward army at this time was led by Zhang Dou'er, Tianshu and Fu Hao from Hu Ce Mansion. The troops and horses were composed of shield soldiers, archers, sword and axemen, and engineering soldiers. The front army was equipped with ladders, carriages, and left and right flanking counties.

Three thousand cavalrymen patrolled back and forth to prevent the cavalry in the city from suddenly coming out.

The sound of a horn kicked off the Liangzhou coalition's first attack on the city. Carefully prepared vertical carts with iron plates began to move towards Fulu County. There were dozens of archers hidden behind the iron plates of each cart.

, as long as they reach an appropriate distance, they can shoot at the Bingzhou soldiers on the top of the city from behind the three-foot-high iron plate.

The carriages followed behind, moving forward like tall towers. The soldiers sitting on the carriages nervously held the steel knife and stared at the Bingzhou soldiers on the top of the city through the gaps in the iron plates, wishing to tear them alive.

As long as the cart is against the city wall, the soldiers can push away the iron plate and climb directly from the cart to the tower to fight with the enemy.

These siege objects were all made by Li Tianchang after racking his brains to imitate the siege facilities of the ancient Roman Empire. It was also the first time that Zeng Yu moved these weapons onto the battlefield, causing countless people to gasp and stare.

Keeping these huge beasts moving.

After that, rows of soldiers carried long ladders covered with iron sheets and kept running under the rain of enemy arrows. There were tens of thousands of these soldiers. They arrived first and crossed the building carts.

, crossed the vertical cart, and crowded towards the top of the city.

For a time, the power of the Liangzhou coalition forces changed the situation inside and outside Fulu City.

The woman's horse kept running forward, waving a big spear to block the arrows coming from all directions, and shouted loudly: "Here is the woman! Zhang Liao, do you dare to fight with me?"

Her voice spread far away, and the noise of countless people on the battlefield could not cover it up.

However, where is the moment to fight generals at this time? Here the army is attacking the city, and here Zhang Liao is asked to go out of the city to fight with her generals, how can Zhang Liao respond?

However, the more they responded, the more the Liangzhou coalition troops outside the city became more and more enthusiastic, their morale was greatly boosted, and they shouted in unison, shaking the heaven and the earth.

Standing on the high platform of the Chinese army in the distance, Zeng Yu also felt his blood boiling, "This good woman, indeed has a deceitful mind, but she killed Zhang Liao's army with just a woman, and called for battle under the city. This is also a big deal for Zhang Liao."

Isn’t that considered humiliating?”

Su Ze stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you have many elites under your command, and women are not inferior to men!"

The woman's shouting was just an interlude. As lives were lost, the war began to intensify. Hundreds of trebuchets bounced boulders and countless arrows, throwing them at the tens of thousands of attacking enemies.

, it was very tragic that people fell on their backs, and the offensive and defensive battle slowly entered a climax.

In exchange for the sacrifice of human lives, the army continued to advance towards the city. Although thousands of corpses were left behind, for the Liangzhou coalition forces, their goal had been achieved.

Hundreds of long ladders were erected at the same time, and countless Liangzhou soldiers braved the rain of arrows to climb up.

The Bingzhou soldiers at the top of the city were holding large pots filled with boiling oil, which was pouring from the city. Thousands of Liangzhou soldiers were scalded by the boiling oil and fell under the ladder...
