Chapter two hundred and seventieth escape under the turret
The soldier who followed Liu Yu and was about to help saw this scene from a distance and screamed several times!
The general is gone!
Their hearts were in their throats and they didn't even dare to move. Their whole bodies seemed to be frozen.
In front of the Beifu soldiers' line of sight was General Yunhui Liu Yu, who was facing a huge crisis. He was panicking, but his strong combat intuition led him to react immediately.
I saw him throwing the Lingyun Ladder to one side, turning sideways and rushing to the other side. The moment his feet left the ground and rushed towards the diagonal direction, the terrifying boulder was as huge as a millstone.
, fell to the ground with a thud.
The dust it kicked up was several feet high!
Liu Yu lay prone on the ground and ate a mouthful of sand. He was very unbearable, but he could feel that his blood was still flowing and his breathing was still continuing.
He is still alive!
Liu Yu was almost beaten to pieces, and the situation of the Di and Qin soldiers on the tower was not good either.
The collapse of the turret was definitely an unexpected event beyond imagination for the Di and Qin soldiers who were busy defending the tower.
Not to mention preparing in advance!
Wasn't that turret specially built under the special supervision of General Fu?
Although Fu Rui was drunk every day and did not pay attention to the soldiers' drills, he did put a lot of effort into the construction of this turret.
Nothing careless at all.
Such a carefully built turret actually became a target for the Jin army, and was hit hard by several stone cannons.
Broken to pieces, who can accept such a strange thing calmly?
When the turret fell off, it triggered a series of reactions. The soldiers originally standing on both sides of the turret, including archers and ordinary shield soldiers, were all fighting seriously.
When the boulder fell, they were totally unprepared.
There was a banging sound, and the soldiers standing on the outside were injured by the falling turret and fell down the tower!
"Fall...the turret actually fell!"
No one tried to rescue the soldiers who were knocked down. The soldiers on the tower panicked and watched helplessly as their comrades were brought to the ground by the bricks and stones. After rolling a few times, they landed hard on the ground.
There was no more sound.
"quick!"
"Run!"
"Run this way!"
The fall of the turret is not the end, it is just the beginning.
Soon, the bricks and stones adjacent to the turret were also falling down, more and more falling, and there were fewer and fewer places for the soldiers to stand.
Collapse approaches Di Qin soldiers!
Just in a moment!
Terrified, they could only run towards the turret on the other side like ducks on the beach.
"Can't run!"
"Stand to the predetermined position!"
"Keep attacking!"
Murong Chui, who was watching the excitement, left, and Fu Rui, who was conscientious and responsible, took the commanding position.
Fu Rui was still competent in this kind of defensive operation with the city tower as a stronghold. Soon, he had arranged the soldiers into different categories.
Various defensive measures were also carried out in an orderly manner.
It's not so much a defense as it is a disguised offense.
Because, although the Jin army had a strong posture, in fact, they did not make any serious siege moves.
Since they arrived at Xiangyang City, they have been attacking from the outside, and there are no soldiers even close to the city wall.
The Di Qin soldiers standing on the city tower, condescending, did not need to be prepared for them to suddenly rush up from under the city wall.
There is no need to repel their attack, you just need to fight them in the air.
Doubts briefly crossed Fu Rui's head, but soon the corner tower was smashed by the Jin army. The soldiers fled in groups, and the tower suddenly became chaotic. The slightest inspiration lasted only a moment.
Then it vanished into thin air and disappeared without a trace.
No matter how good the general is, at this time, he also knows that order must be maintained and the soldiers cannot be allowed to do their own thing or even retreat.
The same goes for Fu Rui, the confused egg.
"Quick, stay in formation!"
"No chaos!"
Fu Rui led Zhao Xiu without hesitation at all. After scolding him a few times, he pushed the panicked soldiers back to their combat positions.
The offensive was barely maintained.
However, this is only temporary, because a huge defensive loophole has appeared on this tower, and it cannot be filled in a short time!
It was the turret that was knocked down!
The turret is usually used for observation, but this does not mean that its function is limited to observation. Similarly, there are arrow holes drilled on the turret, and various weapons are placed.
Sniping enemy troops is also the duty of the turret sentry.
The fact that the turret was directly cut off is already a huge defensive loophole. However, this is only one aspect. What is even more frightening is that the turret was not lost, nor was the sentry killed by the enemy, but the main building was directly knocked down.
Got it!
broken!
This is equivalent to one side of the Xiangyang City Tower being directly exposed to the enemy. Next, as long as the Beifu soldiers aim at this loophole and keep attacking, the city tower will most likely not be protected!
What's more, the lack of the turret also makes the area near the turret lose its defensive significance. Near the broken stone bricks, almost all the stone slabs are hanging in the air, trembling and messy in the breeze.
All the soldiers were afraid of death. Who dared to stand on such a dangerous stone slab?
No matter how Fu Rui urged, cursed, and pushed, they just refused to obey and would not move a step toward the turret.
"Let's go!"
"What are you dawdling about?"
The Jin army's offensive has not yet come up, and Fu Rui can still maintain a good temper. He is still talking, but he has not yet taken action. It is commendable for anyone to look at it and not say a word.
Zhao Xiu stood behind Fu Rui, not saying much, but his eyes were very busy.
He kept hinting to the blind soldiers to be wise and not to make General Fu angry.
"General Fu, no one can stand over there anymore!"
"The stone bricks have fallen off!"
Some people have quick eyes and quick hands, while others are procrastinating. In any situation and at any time, opportunities are always reserved for those who are at the forefront.
And those poor people with severe procrastination who still can't react quickly on the battlefield will have to face the fate of being squeezed out of the original attack position and guarding the damaged city wall.
However, the more people procrastinate, the less likely they are to get things done happily.
"So what if it falls?"
"Don't we need guards?"
"I'm warning you, you'd better get there quickly, otherwise..."
Fu Rui stared angrily, and the soldiers looked at him with bleak expressions. The weapons in their hands were shaking slightly.
Even before facing the enemy, he was already frightened!
Seeing that all the soldiers under his command were so scared, Fu Rui immediately became angry.
Zhao Xiu was very attentive when he handed over the riding crop. Fu Rui picked it up and whipped it without any hesitation.
Under the control of Fu Rui, the powerful leather whip with a cool breeze struck the soldiers' flesh.
The iron whip was whirling, whipped by the wind, and came whistling.
The soldiers were so scared that they didn't even dare to move, let alone hide. They just faced the whirlwind rolled up by the whip and stayed alive.
After only a few blows, the exposed clothes and flesh on the outside of the armor burst open from the inside out!
