While Lu Bu and others were talking to Yan Liang, Wei Yue's long-range strike force was already targeting Yan Liang on the city wall.
At this time, after hearing Wei Yue's order, all kinds of weapons immediately fired.
Buzz!
Hoo ho ho!
Two huge stones, plus five giant crossbow arrows, flew towards Yan Liang on the city wall almost at the same time.
Five giant crossbow arrows were lined up in a row, blocking the enemy's left and right paths, and flew wildly towards the city wall.
The distance between the two sides was outside the attack range of bows and arrows. Yan Liang didn't pay much attention to it. He suddenly heard a sound coming from the front and almost subconsciously leaned down.
As soon as Yan Liang lay on the ground, he heard a buzzing sound above his head, and then a violent snapping sound came from behind.
Yan Liang was startled, and quickly turned his head to take a look. When he saw clearly, his face turned pale with shock, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Five huge spear-like crossbow arrows have penetrated several soldiers who were still standing there, and are impaling themselves on the bluestone wall behind them. The huge inertial force of the crossbow arrows is still buzzing and trembling. p>
Yan Liang was horrified. If these five crossbow arrows hit him, even if he had nine lives, he would probably be ruined.
Just when Yan Liang was overjoyed, two stones drew a graceful arc in the air, made a sound of breaking through the air, and fell towards the city wall.
Bang bang!
Although the trebuchet is very powerful, unfortunately, it is not accurate enough.
None of the two falling stones hit Yan Liang, and the nearest one was two steps away from him.
Although the stone did not hit Yan Liang, such a huge force fell on the solid green brick, and it was immediately smashed into several pieces and flew around.
One of the stones bounced and hit Yan Liang on the shoulder.
"Ah!"
Unexpectedly, Yan Liang was hit on his head. He screamed in pain and immediately lost consciousness in his left hand.
"No, General Yan Liang is injured."
"What are you still doing? Help the general down quickly."
When several soldiers saw that the general was injured, they immediately stepped forward to help him and quickly ran towards the stairs.
Yan Liang, who was lying on the ground, was lifted up by someone. He suddenly lost his face and became a little angry. He threw away the soldier's supporting hand and roared angrily.
At this time, the ballista started again, and five giant crossbow arrows roared towards the city wall.
At the place where Yan Liang had just stood, a dozen soldiers screamed at the same time, were pierced by crossbow arrows, and fell to the ground unwillingly.
Whoops!
The powerful catapult also launched another attack, and two large rocks flew into the air towards Yan Liang.
Bang bang!
He Yuan's face turned pale with fright. He hurriedly stepped forward to hold Yan Liang and said loudly, "General, get down quickly, it's too dangerous here."
Although catapults and ballistae are powerful, their attack area is too small and their launch speed is slow. They can only act as a deterrent and cannot influence the direction of the battle.
Lu Bu saw that Wei Yue launched several rounds of attacks and saw Yan Liang running away, so he could only order to stop.
At this time, Lu Bu felt very embarrassed.
There were not many troops in the first place, and we could not order an attack on the city, otherwise the losses would be even greater.
But if we don’t attack the city, we will never be able to recapture Fan County.
This was Lu Bu's passivity. He had been fighting for so long that he didn't even have time to recruit troops. What's more, recruiting troops also requires training. Otherwise, they would just change from a common people to a group of common people without any fighting ability. Lu Bu also wanted to recruit troops to increase his strength, but with the continuous wars during this period, how could he have time to recruit troops?
Now, we are faced with such an embarrassing situation.
Yan Liang had 20,000 troops to defend the city, and Lu Bu used more than 10,000 troops to attack the city.
Normally speaking, Yan Liang has 20,000 troops to defend the city, and Lu Bu must have at least 50,000 troops to be half sure of conquering the city.
Now, with more than 10,000 people, it is almost impossible to break through the city.
However, we have to come, Fan County must be taken back.
Looking in the direction of the city wall, Lu Bu gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted, "Wei Xu, prepare with 1,000 soldiers and horses."
"Wei Yue, the catapult is aimed in the direction of the city gate, ready to launch the flaming stone"
Upon hearing the order, Wei Yue immediately conveyed it, and the two catapults turned around and began to fire stones in the direction of the city gate.
Bang bang bang!
The two catapults continued to launch stones, and finally when they were calibrated to the most accurate accuracy, they loaded the flaming stones and prepared to launch.
"Reporting to Marquis Wen, the catapult has been prepared. Do you want to launch the flaming stone?"
Lu Bu narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the city gate, and shouted, "Launch."
Following the order, the long arm of the catapult suddenly bounced up, and the two flaming stones rolled in the air, making a whistling sound, and flew towards the city gate.
The two catapults have been calibrated, and the accuracy is natural and correct. The two flaming stones hit the city gate accurately.
Boom!
With two loud noises, a big hole was blown out of the city gate, and it began to burn violently.
Yuan Shaojun's soldiers on the city wall were suddenly startled and started shouting.
"No, the city gate was smashed by them."
"The city gate is on fire, hurry up and put out the fire."
"Launch."
As Wei Yue roared again, the catapult threw two flaming stones high into the air and flew towards the city gate.
Boom!
The city gate of Fan County was baptized by four flaming stones. Finally, one door was blown away, and the other door was also in tatters.
The city gate was completely blown up!
However, Lu Bu did not order a charge, because as the city gate was blown away, sand, gravel and soil actually flowed out of the passage into the city.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao's expression changed angrily, "Oh no, the gate of Fan County is blocked by sand. What should we do? We can't get in."
Yan Liang knew how powerful Lu Bu was, so he had no intention of going out from the beginning. He just had people seal the city gate with sand. Even if the city gate was blown open, it would be of no avail.
Lu Bu looked in the direction of the city gate with an ugly expression, his heart filled with rage.
Yan Liang is really a courageous guy, and he deserves to be called the number one general in Jizhou. Hehe, he is just a timid general.
Lu Bu raised his head and looked at the soldiers of Yuan Shao's army on the city wall. Although they were still shouting, they were not too panicked. After thinking about it, they should also know that the city gate was sealed and the enemy could not enter.
Chen Gong ran over sweating profusely, "Marquis Wen, what should we do? They have blocked the city gate and we can't get in?"
Cold sweat broke out on Lu Bu's forehead, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
If the city gate cannot be opened, the Bingzhou cavalry cannot enter the city.
Even if the city wall can be breached, can Yuan Shaojun really be defeated without the battle of Bingzhou cavalry?
This is what Lu Bu is most worried about!
What to do?
At this time, Yan Liang also covered his shoulders and climbed onto the city wall again. Looking at Lu Bu in the distance, he looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Lu Bu, don't you claim to be invincible? If you have the ability, you come to attack the city, haha!"
