Chapter 366 Why didn’t Zhang Lu ask for help?

The player army responsible for attacking the West City is Zhang Xuanji's Xuanji Army and Yuan Zhang.

Zhang Xuanji's Xuanji Legion is one of the top ten legions of players and is very powerful. Although Yuan Zhang's legion is not in the top ten, it is also one of the top legions. It can be said that both of them are very powerful.

Originally, they planned to secretly send people to sneak into the city, and then directly open the teleportation array to let the players enter the city.

But there was a small problem in the middle, which led to them being discovered by the soldiers patrolling in the West City, and they were all cleared out.

At this time, it was no longer realistic to send people into the city. Therefore, Zhang Xuanji and others planned to attack Xicheng.

"Boss Xuanji, this West City is a bit difficult to fight. Brothers don't bring many siege equipment." Yuan Zhang looked at the dark and tall city wall and said to Zhang Xuanji beside him.

"There is nothing we can do about it. After all, this West City is the prefecture of the Hanzhong Army. It is reasonable for the defense to be stronger." Zhang Xuanji looked at the city wall and said with emotion.

"Then what should I do now? If we attack by force, we don't have many siege equipment." Yuan Zhang looked at Zhang Xuanji and said.

"We can only attack by force. Regarding the siege equipment, I have sent people back to Luoyang to deal with it. It will only take an hour to come back." Zhang Xuanji calmed down and then said to Yuan Zhang.

"Oh, in that case, I'll let the legions attack first." Yuan Zhang heard what Zhang Xuanji said, and he had no other choice but to follow Zhang Xuanji's words.

"Wait a minute. As for the attack, let's do this first. Take your time. I'm thinking about something else now." Zhang Xuanji stopped Yuan Zhang who was about to leave, and then said slowly.

"Huh? What's going on?" Yuan Zhang stopped in his tracks when he heard Zhang Xuanji's words.

There is actually no rush to attack the city. Now the players only bring a small number of ladders. If there are too many people, they will only be used as living targets by the defenders on the city.

So, let's wait until the people behind bring the large siege equipment and swarm them, so that they can quickly attack the city.

Today's players seem to enjoy such siege battles. In the past, when they were weak, everyone could not face such siege battles. Therefore, they would try every means to attack the city through clever tricks.

But now, the players' strength has increased, and they can use any method without resorting to tricks.

In addition, at this time, the princes have already figured out the tricks used by the players, so once they encounter the players attacking the city, they will let some archers ambush near the city gate.

These people do nothing but stare at the sky. As long as players outside throw people into the city, they will shoot them in mid-air.

Therefore, if players now want to attack a city, they really can only use conventional methods. Of course, opening the way with explosive packs like Yangping Pass does not count.

This thing is still experimental in nature, and only Jiang Yi has some equipment at his disposal. After all, the players who came before Jiang Yi and the others had already received warnings from the "officials", so few people use this method.

"Logically speaking, Zhang Lu should know our identities, why didn't he react at all?" Zhang Xuanji looked at Xicheng and murmured.

"Huh? Reaction? Isn't it the best reaction for him to defend the city now?" Yuan Zhang was a little confused when he heard Zhang Xuanji's words.

At this time, Zhang Xuanji slowly turned his head, looked at Yuan Zhang and said, "It's different. I know Zhang Lu. Although he is said to be a prince, his ambitions are not big."

"Your Majesty has been in Luoyang for so long. Apart from the prefectures and counties that have surrendered to the imperial court, only Hanzhong pays tribute to your Majesty every year. Although the tax revenue is not large, it is definitely there."

"So, I guess Zhang Lu just occupies Hanzhong and doesn't want to go out independently. Logically speaking, his relationship with the imperial court is not bad."

"At this time, in the face of the imperial court's conquest, he should speak out and criticize, instead of remaining silent like this."

"In addition, even if Zhang Lu is ignorant and ignorant of our strength, at this time, he should send people to break out and go to Yangping Pass.

If you know Zhang Wei, let him come back for help." Zhang Xuanji said while thinking.

"He would never think that the West City could be defended with only 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers in the city."

Hearing what Zhang Xuanji said, Yuan Zhang also felt strange.

Before they came, they had already investigated clearly. The Han army had 150,000 troops. Excluding the 100,000 troops sent to Yangping Pass, the remaining 50,000 people could not be allocated to the entire Hanzhong County by Zhang Lu.

Among them, Xicheng only has 20,000 people at most. Where does he get the confidence to stop the 70,000 to 80,000 players on his side with only 20,000 troops?

"Boss, do you think he really thinks so?" Yuan Zhang thought for a while and said to Zhang Xuanji with some uncertainty.

When Zhang Xuanji heard what Yuan Zhang said, he was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "I have said it many times, you have to use your brain to fight."

"This is not the rigid game we played before. Everyone here has their own thoughts. Don't think others are too stupid." Zhang Xuanji said slowly.

"Actually, boss, it's useless for you to think so much. Wouldn't it be better if he didn't go out to find reinforcements? This way it would be more convenient for us to attack the city." Yuan Zhang felt that he didn't understand Zhang Xuanji at all.

I like to think so much.

According to Yuan Zhang's idea, whether Zhang Lu ran out to ask for help or not, people like him wanted to attack Xicheng anyway. Could it be said that they would not fight when reinforcements came?

It can only be said that they will be in more trouble now that reinforcements are coming.

Zhang Xuanji heard what Yuan Zhang said and felt that what Yuan Zhang said made sense. He felt that he really seemed to be thinking too much.

"Okay, let's attack the city first. We still don't know what Zhang Lu was thinking specifically. We can only try to take advantage of the situation." Zhang Xuanji nodded, and then he suddenly thought of something.

Facing Yuan Zhang, he continued: "By the way, tell the brothers that Zhang Lu must live. Zhang Lu's reputation is too high in Hanzhong and we cannot let him die."

"Otherwise, our follow-up actions in Hanzhong will be very troublesome."

When Yuan Zhang heard Zhang Xuanji's words, he nodded and without saying anything else, he began to give orders to the members of his legion.

In less than an hour, the players who were sent back to Luoyang by Zhang Xuanji to transport siege equipment returned.

I have to say that having a teleportation array is really convenient.

The distance between Hanzhong and Luoyang would take a day or two even with a fast horse. However, for players, this distance is just a swipe on the neck and they can return to Luoyang.

This hour was mainly due to the time spent by the players going to the legion warehouse in Luoyang to pick up siege equipment.
