Chapter two hundred and sixty-ninth big stone falling from the sky
It was Liu Yu, who understood the disadvantages of attacking the city from the front and was good at using military strategies, that he decided to change his tactics and not fight the Di Qin defenders from the front.
Today, inside and outside Xiangyang City, the situation of the enemy being strong and us being weak is still very obvious.
Looking up at the tower, the defenders are arranged horizontally, with three rows in the front, middle and back, relying on each other.
The soldiers in the first row are responsible for attacking, and the soldiers in the back row are responsible for checking for the attacking soldiers' deficiencies, finding targets, and delivering arrows.
Behind them, there is a third row of soldiers.
These soldiers are currently in a waiting state, and they are there to provide backup for the soldiers at the front.
Once the soldiers at the front were violently attacked and suffered excessive losses, they would quickly replenish their numbers to ensure that the towers would not be lost.
"Slave, with such a tight defense, there is almost no gap for us to get through!"
Although Tan Pingzhi lacked resourcefulness, his combat nerves were extremely developed. Without Liu Yu's reminder, he quickly discovered that the tower in Xiangyang was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
"How about we throw more torches?"
Tan Pingzhi thought of a short and quick way. He found that because there were many soldiers standing on the tower guarding each other, and the space on the tower was limited, the soldiers could not spread out. When there were more people, they would be crowded together.
, when viewed from a distance, it looks like a lump of paste.
"As long as there is a fire, won't the city be in chaos?"
"It won't be easy for our army to take advantage of the situation again?"
Tan Pingzhi leaned into Liu Yu's ear and encouraged him desperately. He was so proud that he thought of a very good idea and should implement it immediately.
Liu Yuqing shook his head and said with difficulty: "This method won't work."
"If the soldiers want to climb the city, they have to use their hands and feet, and they have to hold weapons. How can they still have the energy to hold torches? Besides, the enemy is not blind. They knocked down the torch before we could climb up!"
"Look at the situation below the city."
Liu Yu kindly reminded him, and Tan Pingzhi looked around.
I was suddenly shocked.
The tower of Xiangyang City is really too bright.
On the city tower, there were torches everywhere in the hands of the soldiers, which made the dark sky as thick as ink shine as if it were daytime.
The firelight from the sky and the firelight reflected from the ground are connected. In the area of several feet in front of the city gate, not even big insects can hide, let alone bright torches and living people.
.
"It seems we can't transport the torch up there," Tan Pingzhi said regretfully.
Liu Yu was still watching the movement on the tower, and the determined look on his face made Lao Tan seem to see hope again.
"You cannot attack the city from the front."
After a moment, Liu Yu finally made a judgment, and Tan Pingzhi immediately answered: "What can we do?"
With his big, barren head, he really couldn't think of any better way.
"They're going to attack the city!"
"quick!"
"Hit toward the ladder!"
There were shouts from the city tower, and with the help of strong firelight, the Di and Qin soldiers had discovered the Lingyun Ladder used by the Jin army to attack the city.
The fire suddenly rose, and the archers on the tower were in position again, and what was carried on their powerful bows were deadly rockets burning with blazing flames!
"not good!"
"They want to destroy the Lingyun Ladder!"
With that shout, Liu Yu understood the true purpose of the Di Qin soldiers, and his body responded faster than their words.
"quick!"
"Move the Lingyun Ladder!"
Liu Yu rushed to the back of the queue, grabbed the Lingyun ladder, pushed aside the crowd, and ran away dragging the ladder.
And his target was exactly the side of Xiangyang City Tower. Liu Yu could see clearly that within the scope of the city tower, only the defenses on both sides were weak.
If you want to protect the safety of soldiers and city climbing equipment as much as possible, this location on both sides of the city tower is the best choice.
Liu Yu was extremely powerful and kept moving. The several-foot-high Lingyun Ladder would always require three or five people to work together to drag it.
But when Liu Yu arrived, he only needed one hand to drag the Lingyun Ladder and run quickly.
Countless arrows chased after him and landed one after another. They came with huge tension and rode the wind.
Their speed is so fast and urgent that anyone who comes face to face with them will be frightened by their terrifying momentum.
However, facing the new Beifu military commander Liu Yu, they could only look back and sigh.
Because they can't catch up with Liu Yu at all, they will only be left behind by him!
"hurry up!"
"Let's follow too!"
Before the archers on the tower could react, the Beifu soldiers had already realized Liu Yu's intention.
Today, among the soldiers of Beifu, General Yunhui Liu Yu and Liu Jinu are very famous.
The soldiers were all convinced by his bravery, fearlessness and flexible mind in several battles.
As long as he takes a little action, many soldiers will immediately follow his footsteps, without even a call.
After successfully getting rid of the enemy's arrows, Liu Yu erected the Lingyun Ladder on the side of the tower without thinking.
The ladder had just been put up on the city wall, and a rumble was heard, whizzing past Liu Yu's head.
Clang!
Before he could react, countless pieces of rubble fell from the originally towering tower.
In order to make up for the lack of rockets, Wang Mi, who was behind the formation, once again activated his catapult and carried out a brutal attack on Xiangyang City.
The reloaded catapult also adjusted the direction of projection.
A few rounds of stone cannons were fired, and the effect was astonishing immediately.
"OK!"
"Knock it off!"
The stone cannon was centered on the top of the turret. The position was just right, and the weight of the entire stone rested on the newly renovated turret.
When the boulder fell to the ground, the turret also collapsed.
Wang Mi smiled happily and clapped his hands.
"Have you seen?"
"I told you, the turret can be demolished!" He turned to Police Shen and said.
Old Shen was stunned and said to himself, when did you tell me about the turret?
"Secretary Wang is really good at knowing things."
There was no memory in his mind, but he could not relax in his professional flattery. Wang Mi was very useful and continued to use this mixed attack method to put pressure on the soldiers on the tower.
In front of Wang Mi, layers of soldiers stretched for almost a mile. He could only see the huge turret being smashed down, but he could not see clearly that there were people underneath the turret.
And that person is none other than the future God of War that Wang Mi has longed for, Liu Yu!
The words were divided on both sides. Under the turret, in the chaos, Liu Yu heard a loud noise and quickly raised his head to observe the situation.
It was okay not to raise his head, but when he raised his head, he was so frightened that he almost died on the spot!
A large stone as big as a millstone was falling off the main building of the turret, and headed straight for his head with extremely high momentum!
I go!
This is life-threatening!
Even though Liu Yu was an unparalleled hero, facing such a life-threatening boulder, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
what to do?
Facing such a behemoth, the most powerful man in Jingkou who could take the heads of enemy generals from among thousands of soldiers couldn't help but panic.
The big stone was falling rapidly, pulled by some force that Liu Yu was unaware of, and headed towards Liu Yu's head without intending to change its direction.
Next to the boulder, there was no shelter, not even a wall panel that could lend it strength.
The boulder just fell down like this, bare and stunned...
