Tan Shao smiled and said: "So, in this Forbidden Mountain of Souls, we built weapons for attacking the city, and also trained brave warriors who were not afraid of death. This is an opportunity given to us by God. However, for the sake of conservatism, If we don’t send out the rope ladders yet, we will order the soldiers to send out 10,000 troops, set up ladders and siege towers to attack the city. I want to see how the city responds to such a vigorous attack!"
Shen Tianzi was a little surprised and blinked: "Should we attack the city with all our strength now? Is it too early? Although the mechanism at the top of the city has been destroyed, there may not be any backup and response. If our army suffers a large number of casualties, it will only I’m afraid it will affect the confidence and morale of the next wave of siege troops. Should you think about it again?”
Tan Shao waved his hand: "If they have any traps or killer moves, it would be better to use them now than to use them when attacking the city with a rope ladder. Attacking a city with a rope ladder is a one-time deal. If it is really broken, then we will We’re not sure we can capture Xicheng anymore.”
Xiao Chengzhi curled his lips and said, "Brother Ah Shao, I think to be on the safe side, we should use a heavy catapult to hit the wall first. Once the wall is broken, it will be useless for them to use any traps or killer moves."
Tan Shao's eyes flashed coldly: "That would be a waste of time. What Brother Jinu hopes is to break the city in one go today. Those Qingzhou troops who have come to join our army cannot just follow and take advantage. They can fight without bloodshed and pass on orders." , let the troops from Beihai go up first."
Zhang Gang opened his eyes wide: "Are you talking about the five thousand Han troops from the Gao family and the Feng family? They are a big family in Qingzhou. If the losses are too heavy..."
Tan Shao sneered and said: "Zhang Shaojian, apart from your professionalism and technical skills, I think it is better for you to remain silent. In a war, someone must fight first, and someone must bleed and sacrifice. This one is afraid of death, and that coward, who will end up?" Go up? Is it you? Or the rest of us?"
Big beads of sweat began to appear on Zhang Gang's face. While wiping the sweat, he said: "No, no, no, I know your loyalty and bravery, General Tan. I didn't mean that, I just wanted to say..."
Tan Shao waved his hand: "Okay, I know what everyone means. I also know that Zhang Shaojian, you also made thirty-five wooden armored robots temporarily, just for attacking the city, but these wooden armored robots of yours, we I had seen it when I was in Linqu. They were slow in speed and few in number, and they couldn't fly over the city wall. Most importantly, they were too few in number. How could five thousand soldiers and horses attack the city wall together to be effective? In the first round of attacks, on the bright side, Yes, all the mechanisms you originally designed have been destroyed, but the new mechanism that Heipao and the others have been running in the past few months, we can only test it out with human lives. Now we have no time. No matter how many people are lost, we must use the best possible method. Take Guanggu quickly!"
When he said this, a terrible murderous intention flashed in his eyes: "Pass my general's order, sound a hundred drums, and the whole army will make noise to cheer for the Northern Navy officers in the front army!"
Xiao Chengzhi nodded, turned around quickly, and was about to give an order to the sergeant behind him. Tan Shao suddenly raised his hand: "Also, the heavily loaded catapult has entered the launching position, ready to attack the enemy city wall at any time. In addition, let Rong Zu command The three thousand death squads are all ready to go up the rope ladder to attack the city now. Remember, everyone must have double steel armor, a steel helmet on their head, and a large shield to prevent the city from being killed by iron juice, gold soup, and the like."
The corner of Xiao Chengzhi's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he turned around and ran towards the sergeant who was delivering the order at the rear. Shen Tianzi curled his lips: "Brother A Shao, you are so unjust, I will give you Zhang Shaojian." I invited them from Nancheng. Afterwards, Brother Zinu and Brother Ashou may hold me accountable. Now my three thousand Wu light soldiers are ready. You know, our old Wu But he is best at this kind of hand-to-hand combat and close combat. Even if you don't let us all go up the rope ladder, at least leave a quota of 1,000 people for us."
Tan Shao smiled and patted Shen Tianzi on the shoulder: "Brother Tianzi, you said we have been together for so many years, brother, when have I ever wronged you?"
Shen Tianzi still frowned deeply and shouted: "What's the use of saying this? Take action. If you let me go up the ladder to attack the city, I will miss you ten thousand times."
Tan Shao shook his head: "You really have well-developed limbs but a simple mind."
Having said this, he glanced at Zhang Gang, who was still standing silently beside him: "Zhang Shaojian, please go to the heavy catapult and supervise it. Don't really start fighting for a while. What's the problem?" "
Zhang Gang was a little unhappy: "My machine-killing weapon is so perfect that it can't go wrong even if the river flows against it. General Tan, I know you don't want me to hear something. To put it bluntly, why bother?" I'm beating around the bush, I'm leaving now."
As he spoke, he walked away with a flutter of his sleeves. Shen Tianzi's mouth curled up slightly. The few guards behind him understood and quickly followed. They followed Zhang Gang down the mountain, shouting and cheering.
Shen Tianzi looked at Zhang Gang's back and said disdainfully: "Huh, why are you still showing such a bad temper? If he hadn't been needed to attack the city, he would have been cut into pieces long ago."
Tan Shao sighed: "Well, you also know that it is because he is useful in attacking the city. If it weren't for him, we would not have destroyed the mechanism at the top of the city so easily. I don't know how many more brothers died. I am willing to make up for it. It’s not a bad thing, brothers Tianzi, didn’t you guys come here like this back then?”
Shen Tianzi's face turned slightly red: "Uh, well, I made a mistake. Well, Zhang Gang is no longer here. Brother Ah Shao, just say what you have to say."
Tan Shao nodded: "When I came, Xinu Gongzu handed over Rong Zu into my hands. What do you think this means?"
Shen Tianzi was stunned for a moment, then said to himself thoughtfully: "Although Liu Rongzu came to the Beifu Army late and only joined the army this time, he is still a well-known hero. The commander is invincible, but his brother There are not many nephews who can live up to expectations. Needless to say Brother Daogui, but there is only one. Brother Huaisu was also a powerful character in the past. Unfortunately, he died young. There are not many left who can convince everyone, and that is Jingzhou. Liu Zunkao is one. And this Liu Rongzu is extremely brave. The commander has repeatedly said that he is most like him back then. Could it be..."
Tan Shao smiled and said: "So, why do you think the commander-in-chief specially asked Rongzu to come here this time? Are you sure you still want to fight with him? Tianzi, you fight with Zhen evil. The commander-in-chief doesn't want it, but Rong Ancestor......"
Shen Tianzi gritted his teeth: "I understand, what can I do?"
Tan Shao pointed in the direction of the city gate: "I have made arrangements for you a long time ago. Heavy catapults will smash the walls and break the city, and vehicles will attack the gates. Wherever there is a gap, you can rush there!"
