"Come here, get an iron shield and stand in front of the Lord!"
"My lord, don't panic, the wooden city is not here, and there are still earth walls to stop Cao's army's stone chariot!"
Yuan Shao's subordinate Wen Wu shouted together, and Wen Chou even straightened up his horse and stood in front of Yuan Shao.
Guo Tu shouted at the top of his lungs, pinning his hopes on the earthen wall.
It's a pity that in the 13th century, the city walls of the Southern Song Dynasty, which pointed out the construction expertise, could not stop the counterweight trebuchet, let alone the rammed earth in the late Han Dynasty?
When Guo Tu shouted, three or four stone bullets hit Yuan Jun's earthen wall almost simultaneously.
The earthen wall was thick and heavy, and Yuan Jun on the wall suffered worse when hit than on the wooden building.
When the bag burst, the soil rolled down on the panicked Yuan Jun soldiers like a landslide, instantly submerging most of the Hebei soldiers under the wall.
A stone marble that had lost its kinetic energy rolled hundreds of steps on the ground with incomparable accuracy, and rolled just in front of Yuan Shao not far away.
The Lord of Hebei, just like Napoleon, the Western Emperor of later generations, had a stern face and pushed away the civil and military officials in front of him.
The marbles rolled at Yuan Shao's feet and were blocked by several soldiers with their spears.
Yuan Shao took a quick look and saw that the stone bullets, which were originally polished and white, were now almost completely red with blood stains on them. He did not know how many lives of Hebei soldiers had been harvested.
"Cao thief, Cao thief! Fang Datong!"
When Yuan Shao saw this scene, he suddenly felt abnormally tight in his chest. He took several steps back, his face turned pale, and his body began to tremble violently.
In the Hebei army, Guo Tu, who was in charge of capturing Mucheng at this time, his expression was not much better than that of his lord.
Wen Chou's eyes were red and full of murderous intent. For a while, he couldn't even find anyone to fight with.
Among the civil and military officials in Jizhou, the only one who could still hold the gods still was Jushu.
When the leader of the Hebei family saw the elite soldiers they had trained so hard, everyone was in panic. Many crossbowmen had already lost their crossbows and jumped down from the earthen wall of the wooden city that was nearly ten feet away, and fled north like flying.
escape.
Many people broke their legs, gritting their teeth and scratching on the ground with their hands to fight for their lives. However, after dozens of bullets, Yuan's army's morale had already dropped to freezing point.
"Cao's army has sharp weapons and Mucheng is no longer usable. Don't panic!"
"In fact, our army has not suffered much losses. The advantage still lies with me. Protect the lord first and retreat to the back village. No, Wen Chou, you protect the lord and retreat to Yanjin. I will personally supervise the army and resist Cao Cao!"
Jushu was so prestigious in Hebei's civil and military circles that even Guo Tu was panicked and couldn't help but act according to the orders of his old enemy.
Behind him, Xu You snatched a donkey long after Yuan Shao left his tent, without even looking at Mucheng, and flew towards the rear army.
The people in the Number Gang are very clear-minded. Is there anything wrong with anything Fang Guang makes?
When Sinong could make perfume, write books, and create killing machines, there would be no difference.
While Wen Chou was waiting for Wen Chou to escort Yuan Shao and seize the road from Houzhai, Xu You's donkey was already running across the land of Yuzhou.
With Cao's army in full force, Liu Ye bit his lower lip and watched as the number of stone bullets beside the thunderbolt chariot in front of him became less and less. The face of the then Shaofu Cheng was full of unfinished thoughts.
After nearly seven rounds of bombardment, from a physical level, Yuan Jun's wooden city and earthen walls no longer existed.
This is not because Yuan Shao's crossbowmen did not escape, but because the wooden city and the stone wall really disappeared under the bombardment of stone bullets.
Fang Guang's original intention was not to use the Thunderbolt Chariot as a weapon for demolition. He just wanted to smash out the passage for Cao's army to attack and smash the wooden city in front of him.
It is not easy to make a thunderbolt cart projectile. It takes countless people to work hard to roll out such a round stone.
In front of Liu Ye, a captain of Cao's army saw that there were fewer and fewer bullets in front of him, with a distressed look on his face, and turned back to look at the big-headed man.
"Mr. Liu, there are not many bullets left. Can you save some for next time?"
"No, hit it out, increase the weight of the counterweight, and knock out all the stones! I want the world to know what a sharp thing Datong has made!"
"There is no unity between heaven and earth, just like an eternal night!"
Old Liu was already a little crazy. Under his orders, Cao Jun's thunderbolt chariots were like the extended artillery bombardment of later generations, increasing the depth of the bombardment.
After the thunderbolt chariot, Cao Cao, who had already overestimated this thing as much as possible, only recovered from his frightened state when he saw the last stone marble being shot out.
"Hahaha, Yuan Jun no longer has the guts to fight!"
"Today is the moment of fundamental defeat, all generals should work hard to move forward!"
"After defeating Yuan Shao, there is no need to return to the Guandu camp. This place, this place, is where Yuan's army gathers food. Without food and grass, Yuan Shao is packing up his troops and cannot fight anymore!"
"Datong, Xiao Zhongda, Wen Ruo, Fengxiao, are you guys thinking the same thing?"
During Cao Cao's war, he specifically cut off people's food routes. At this time, the symptoms were not obvious yet, so Fang Guang was naturally aware of it.
The people named by Cao Cao laughed together and nodded in agreement. Cao Mengde was so pleased that he personally drew his sword, led the troops, carefully bypassed the tunnel, and rushed forward.
Everyone knows that Cao Ying is an outstanding person. In fact, Yuan Shao did not suffer much loss today.
How many people could be killed by more than a dozen trebuchets? Today, Yuan's army is in a state of collapse because it has no morale at all.
Cao Cao's pursuit, cutting off the food road, basically drove his old friend back to Hebei in one fell swoop without giving Yuan Shao any chance to breathe.
Cao Cao's 60,000-strong army attacked like fierce tigers. Although Jushou wanted to turn the tide, unfortunately his troops were disorganized. He himself was still protected by his troops to the death, and he withdrew from the camp behind Yuan Shao.
The person he hit was Xu Shu's professional counterpart.
What could be more exciting to Xu Yuanzhi than setting fire to the collapsed enemy camp?
Lao Xu almost rolled up his sleeves himself and lit the first fire in winter in front of Yuan Jun's stronghold.
Under the light of the soaring fire, Cao's army fought for nearly a hundred miles in one breath, and only caught up to the boundary of Yanjin, and then slowed down.
Yuan Shao's army was divided into groups, and finally merged into several groups. They wanted to withstand Cao Jun, but they learned that the tiger and leopard cavalry under the command of Fang Guang, Cao Chun and Cao Xiu had overtaken Yuan Jun's grain garrison.
After being hit by a stone, the Pili chariot is heavy and heavy, and the stone pill is not easy to build, but the Hebei soldiers can still make a comeback.
Every time there is no food and grass, in winter, all the troops have to do is to die.
At this time, the only words in the minds of the Hebei army were heading all the way north.
In addition to Yuan Shao, tens of thousands of soldiers gathered around him and stood still at Yanjin Ferry. The rest of Yuan's army fled in all directions, wanting to cross the Yellow River first.
Cao Cao's army was actually divided into several groups at this time. At that time, Sikong was busy ordering express delivery from Hebei, and the pursuit speed slowed down.
Fang Guang was also in Yanjin. After receiving Hua Xin's letter and knowing the tribe of Dongjun, he came west along the Yellow River.
He quickly ordered the troops to cut off Yuan Shao's retreat along the Yellow River. He took Cao Xiu and Cao Chun and rode northward, hoping to meet up with the Dongjun tribe as soon as possible.
