"Boom!"

With a loud noise, Huang County's heavy city gate was split open, causing the entire city wall to tremble twice.

"kill!"

Huang Zhong stroked his beautiful beard slightly and said calmly.

After hearing this, the army immediately reorganized their formation, marched into Huang County in formation, and soon entered the city.

Seeing the army fighting so smoothly, Huang Zhong's face showed no joy, and he looked to the west where Huang County is located with a slight frown: "Isn't it possible that it's not me?"

Before Yuan Shu ordered them to send troops to Yanzhou, he made it clear to them: Liu Xuande was not someone who would be willing to admit defeat. He would definitely try his best to fight a beautiful battle, for no other reason than to demonstrate his own abilities and avoid unrest in people's hearts.

, and at the same time, it is also good to have a little more confidence when negotiating with Yuan Shu later.

Yuan Shu naturally didn't care about Liu Bei's petty thoughts, and did not change the order of the three-pronged advance. He also wanted to give Liu Bei some credit. Although he needed a few troublemakers to stir up trouble in the west, he could also lay an outpost for the Han people's future westward advance.

Station, but you can't raise waste, right? Cao Cao is capable, Yuan Shao is powerful, and both of them have many civil and military subordinates. In comparison, Liu Bei is too weak. One more of him is not more, and one less of him is not much. If Liu Bei

If he really can't come up with anything that can impress Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu's attitude towards him will change a bit in the future.

Although we know that this guy is the leader of Shu Han in history, and those who can build a country must be extraordinary. But without experiencing the period of displacement and brutal fighting, the gap between Liu Bei and Emperor Zhaolie of Han is actually

Don't be careful. A historical figure whose appearance has become crooked or crippled due to his own appearance is of no value in Yuan Shu's eyes.

With the three-pronged army, Liu Bei's possible main attack directions are nothing more than two, one is Wei Yan, and the other is Huang Zhong. The reason for attacking Wei Yan is because Wei Yan's army is relatively weak, and the reason for attacking Huang Zhong is because Huang Zhong is a big threat. Both Wei Yan and Huang Zhong know this

, so they were well prepared to face Liu Bei when they marched.

But now that Liu Bei has not been seen for several days, Huang Zhong also doubts whether Liu Bei has chosen Wei Yan. After all, the situation in Yanzhou has deteriorated to this point. Liu Bei may have given up hope of defending Yanzhou. In comparison,

Next, it is more certain to attack Wei Yan.

What Huang Zhong thought was not unreasonable. Any ordinary prince would probably choose this way, but Liu Bei was not like this.

Although it was partly due to the current situation and destiny, it was no coincidence that Liu Bei became the later Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty. He spent his whole life wandering and suffered repeated defeats. No matter how difficult the situation was, he never gave up his ambition, no matter how slim the hope was.

In his unswerving pursuit, Liu Bei's shining points are definitely not much less than Cao Cao's.

No matter how slim the hope is, Liu Bei will never give up. Even if he loses, the situation will not be any worse. It does not make much difference to Liu Bei, but once he wins, it will be like a trapped dragon ascending to heaven. Therefore.

Liu Bei chose the "lowest strategy" proposed by Chen Qun without hesitation.

"Boom!"

Several loud noises came from the direction of the Huangxian City Wall, and Huang Zhong, who was slightly distracted, suddenly frowned.

Looking carefully, I saw that the city gate that had been split open by my sword was surrounded by a pile of rocks. At the same time, a group of strong warriors appeared on the city gate tower at some point, holding the city gate under the protection of a group of shield soldiers.

He smashed the boulder downwards, intending to completely block the city gate with the boulder.

A large group of soldiers suddenly appeared on the city wall. At the same time, a group of defensive equipment was laid out, including crossbows and trebuchets.

The soldiers of the Chu army who rushed into Huang County saw that their way back was blocked, and their hearts sank. However, after all, they were elites who had experienced many battles. They quickly calmed down and left five soldiers under the command of the captains of each department.

A hundred people guarded the blocked city gate, while the remaining troops continued to rush into the city.

Liu Bei's soldiers buried in the city also rushed out from the houses one after another, and started a chaotic battle with the Chu soldiers on the streets.

The figures of Liu Bei and Chen Qun appeared on the city wall at some point, looking down at the scene in the city.

"How many soldiers of the Chu army were blocked in the city?" Liu Bei asked.

"About ten thousand." Chen Qun said.

"Ten thousand." Liu Bei looked at the anxious scene of the battle in the city and smiled bitterly: "We have deployed a total of 40,000 troops in the city. Four times the number of people, calculated mentally and unintentionally, we only had a slight upper hand in the first battle.

?"

Chen Qun was not surprised. He had already prepared for the elite Chu soldiers. In a head-on battle, he did not dare to win without more than three times the number of troops. He had already calculated the number of 10,000 troops.

This is the maximum number of people. If there are more people, I'm afraid they won't be able to swallow it, and they will be starved to death.

Now that our side has the home field advantage, the other side has fallen into the trap and become a lone force, and has lost its powerful military formation and crossbow advantage. The strength gap has been evened out. Chen Qun does not believe that under this situation, the battle losses between the two sides cannot be equalized.

The ratio is less than two. The maximum loss is more than 10,000 soldiers. It is not a problem to capture this batch of Chu troops.

"Yuan Jiujiu is really rich! The value of the equipment on any one of these soldiers is probably enough for me to arm four or five soldiers." Liu Bei sighed.

Looking at a Chu soldier who was fighting, a Liu Bei soldier suddenly rushed out from behind and slashed his back with a knife. However, he was not killed by the knife. The blade of the knife got stuck on the opponent's armor, leaving only the opponent with a knife.

There was a scar that was not deep. But the latter slashed the enemy in front of him, swung his sword back, and killed Liu Bei's soldier who was sneaking up on him with one knife. Then he raised his right hand slightly and aimed the crossbow at Liu Bei's soldier not far away.

, whooshed a few times, and the two fell to the ground. Then the Chu soldier threw the hand crossbow on the ground with great skill, stepped on it with his foot without any care, crushed the hand crossbow to pieces, and continued to kill forward.

Scenes like this happen from time to time on the battlefield. The Chu army's equipment advantage is too great, especially hand crossbows. If Chen Qun hadn't had the foresight to choose the battlefield in a narrow alley, and it was close to the melee,

I'm afraid Liu Beijun will suffer a big loss.

However, Liu Bei's army also has an advantage. It has four times the number of men and horses of the opponent. Basically, every Chu soldier is surrounded by three or five Liu Bei soldiers. It is difficult for two punches to defeat four hands, and the Chu soldiers are also severely damaged. Usually,

He only took the life of one opponent, but several others rushed up and hacked him to death.

Looking at the hand crossbows that were trampled to pieces and destroyed by the soldiers of Chu without any pity after firing the crossbow bolts, Liu Bei felt heartbroken.

What a wonderful baby! Why don't these people know how to cherish it? If I gave him a few hundred, I'm afraid he would be so happy.

While feeling distressed, Liu Bei kept cursing someone in his heart who had developed such a krypton gold-based play method.

A father in Jinling who was taking care of his children at home seemed to sense something and couldn't help but sneeze a few times.

Someone must be jealous of me!

That's right, the person who developed this krypton-gold style of play is Yuan Shu. What does money mean to Yuan Shu? Sprinkle on it!

Although these hand crossbows can only be fired a few times, their effect in battle is extremely terrifying. Imagine that when the two sides are preparing to fight with bayonets, the other side suddenly fires a pistol at you dozens of meters away, and then shoots you again.

How does it feel to throw away the pistol and then rush up with a knife as if nothing happened? This is completely bullying.

The biggest feature of this carefully designed hand crossbow is that it is light and easy to operate. Although the crossbow has fewer arrows and is less powerful, it is definitely a killer weapon at close range. The most important thing is that it is extremely small and will not damage soldiers.
