"Hand up a shield!" Just as he was about to start siege, he didn't expect that Dong Min gave the order on the city wall and a large number of wooden shields were raised.

Unlike half of the shields, these shields are very large, guarding the soldiers holding shields behind them. At the same time, special is that an observation port is reserved on these shields.

Seeing the arrows shooting up, they would use this defense, and then take advantage of this gap to take advantage of the opportunity to shoot. Several archers were caught in the arrows, but fortunately they were blocked by the "Shield of Heaven".

"Lord, it seems that the other party has made a countermeasure specifically for our tactics!" Guo Jia reminded, "There are not many shields, and it seems that they have not been made for a long time. However, under the protection of these shields, it is difficult for us to hit the other party!"

The simple siege model that relies entirely on the long ladders is largely supported by the archers. Thanks to Yan Liang's command, the Xiongnu reinforcements, and the archery techniques are good, so they can effectively suppress the enemy.

Just talk about Hangu Pass, the enemy army did not even have a chance to emerge. But now it is a little troublesome. The opponent erected a large shield on the city wall and then took advantage of the space to launch a shooting, so that Liu Tao's troops would appear very passive.

Generally speaking, catapults may be able to deal with them, but unfortunately Liu Tao does not have the catapults to accompany the army at present.

Suddenly, some soldiers holding sledgehammers appeared in the crowd. They took advantage of the gap to come to the long ladder and then used the sledgehammer to go down to the long ladder with one hammer. Basically, with such a hammer, the wood of the long ladder would also collapse.

Especially the bamboo, with one hammer, it is very likely that the entire bamboo will crack. What comes with it is that the soldiers above all fell to the ground.

"It's another countermeasure against our siege method..." Liu Tao was a little unhappy. For Dong Jun, only Li Ru could formulate such a strategy. I have to admit that this person is indeed a bit capable.

That's why we can't keep it. He has to bear the main responsibility for killing Dong Zhuo. Even if we accept their surrender, will there be no hatred? There are many cases in history where the power is stable and then rebels one day.

But there are also advisers like Li Ru who help out with suggestions, which is really unreliable.

"Give orders..." Liu Tao thought for a while, "Let three archers form three echelons and shoot in batches, be sure to keep the arrows from interruption. I'll see how the other party shows up!"

"It's just that the other party puts a shield over there, and our people can't climb up!" Chen Gong reminded.

"They thought I had all my trump cards, but unfortunately they didn't count. I still have my trump cards!" Liu Tao smiled faintly, "Continue to attack, Yang Sho, fight with me!"

"Here!" Yang She nodded, and didn't ask why Liu Tao had to go into battle himself, but just followed him silently.

Several literati were a little anxious. There were not many cases of Liu Tao taking the battle personally. The key was that their lord had practiced martial arts, but they were only similar to them. At most, they were stronger and could not match those real generals.

Just as they were together, Liu Tao had already arrived under the city wall. Yan Liang and others had formed three square formations according to Liu Tao's instructions and then shot in batches. They did slightly suppress the other party's soldiers and prevented them from emerging.

But the shield was still there, and the long ladder was pushed outside. The soldiers on his side were about to climb up, but the long ladder slightly moved to the left and right. Three or four long spears were killed behind and they were heading towards the soldiers.

At this time, it is very troublesome for the soldiers to fight back. After all, no matter whether they are flat or straight stabs, they cannot reach the opponent's soldiers.

The advantage of the spearman is effective here, and the shield limits the space for Liu Tao's soldiers to play.

At this moment, a fire arrow shot out and hit the shield. While piercing it through, it shot into the bodies of the soldiers behind. Not only that, the shield and the soldiers' bodies actually began to emit flames and spread around.

"Come again!" As he said, three more fire arrows shot out, hitting three more shields, piercing them through and killing the soldiers behind. Suddenly, a section of the city wall was empty, and because of the fire, no one could get close to it.

"Before now!" Liu Tao shouted immediately. The soldiers who had already climbed the ladder immediately shouted, then jumped onto the city wall, stared at the other party's spear, and killed them. Under his cover, the second soldier successfully climbed the city wall.

"Don't think of running here!" After saying that, Liu Tao had already released three fire arrows to another place, ignited it, and left a range. At this moment, Xu Huang was on the long ladder and saw this, he quickly climbed up to the city wall.

It felt almost done, so Liu Tao returned after he beat the horse. During this period, the personal guards also suppressed them with bows and arrows, so that the other side did not dare to fight back. Unlike other archers, the personal guards were all sharpshooters.

As long as the head appears for more than two seconds, the arrow may have shot into their faces.

"Master, that one was just..." Back at the position, several scribes hurriedly stepped forward to ask, really curious.

"The spell called Fire Arrow is also one of my few attack spells." Liu Tao explained, "It can penetrate the target like an arrow and ignite the target at the same time. Simply put, even if you can't shoot, you may be burned alive."

Many people have seen Liu Tao's magic arrows. The deduction of that thing requires Liu Tao to point to the target, which is silent and has no shape. Even if the target is hit, he may not know what hurts him.

The fire arrows are different, just like a fire light, flashing by, but they can be avoided, but the firing rate is not slow, so it is easy to hit the opponent. At the same time, this continuous damage is very suitable for dealing with heavy armored soldiers.

Even it has a very good effect against siege equipment, even city gates, etc.

"The lord has used several fire arrows in succession, but is it enough magic power?" Chen Gong tried to ask.

"This thing consumes the same mana power as the invisible arrow, not much." Liu Tao replied casually. Now he relies on treasures to reduce his magic consumption by 4 points. The fire arrows and magic arrows that were originally consumed at 10 magic points now only need 6 points.

He just used 7 magic arrows, and he only consumed 42 magic points, which was not a big deal.

"That's good..." Everyone sighed, and at the same time remembered Liu Tao's spell.

It’s not that there is any wrong idea, but this magic is there. If it were early, at Hangu Pass, Liu Tao would be invited to close the door. When the door is closed, it would be burned. It would even be necessary to attack the city and just kill through the city gate.

But they didn't know that Liu Tao had this idea. This problem can only be used to deal with unprepared cities. Prepared cities often block the city gates, so even if the city gates are burned, they still cannot easily be rushed in.

However, before hitting Hangu Pass, I really didn't expect that the other party would not have time to block the door. Otherwise, if they had to fight, they would have to wait for the soldiers who entered to clear the city gate.

"Lord!" When he said that, a soldier hurriedly came to report, "The enemy blocked the city gate. We need to clean it up before we can open the city gate!"

Meow, just said, the other party did it! Liu Tao couldn't help but curse, and then two thousand people went up. Under the heavy siege, it was not that easy to meet the enemy and clean up while trying to achieve unharmed conditions!
