Chapter 490 Zhang Ja VS Gao Lan

Yuan Shao brought tens of thousands of troops to the camp and rode on the horse. He looked at the huge camp and smiled coldly. This battle must be defeated by Wang Lei.

Yuan Shao looked at Gao Lan and ordered: "Gaolan, you are in charge of this battle!"

"Don't worry, lord, I will never let my lord down."

Gao Lan was full of fighting spirit and had great confidence in himself. He also spent a lot of effort on this battle. Gao Lan was in the central army, riding on a horse to look at the Jizhou military camp in front of the army, and ordered: "Send the order, prepare for the catapult!"

Immediately, the flag bearer who followed Gao Lan, waved the flag immediately and sent the orders with the flag words.

In an instant, catapults drove out one by one, approached the Jizhou Army camp, and stopped ten feet away. Next to each catapult, soldiers were carrying stones and preparing to bombard the camp.

Gao Lan ordered again, "Arrowman, get ready!"

In an instant, archers immediately set out and stopped thirty feet outside the camp.

"attack!"

The order was issued, and the catapult and the archers began to attack.

"Swoosh!!!"

The arrows broke through the air, with a sharp roar. Under the sunlight, the arrows flashed with rays of light and headed straight for the Jizhou military camp. The dense bows and arrows shot into the camp like rain of arrows.

The momentum of the bow and arrow attack was extremely terrifying.

At the same time, stones were launched through catapults, cutting through the sky and falling into the camp.

"boom!!!"

A rumbling sound kept coming, and the stone fell to the ground and a small hole was smashed.

As soon as he came up, Gao Lan became aggressive.

Yuan Shao's army launched an attack, and Wang Lei brought his civil servants and generals to the front camp. Wang Lei's eyes fell on Zhang He and said in a deep voice: "Junyi, you are good at defending. This battle depends on you. The generals in the army are allowed to dispatch you, but you must win beauty."

"promise!"

Zhang He responded respectfully, with a confident look, and no fear at all.

After fighting with Gao Lan many times, Zhang He has already become familiar with Gao Lan's methods. This time, Zhang He can call more people, more weapons, and more convenient to operate.

Zhang He took over the command and arranged it slowly and said: "The projection vehicles outside the camp are not strong enough to conduct long-range attacks like bows and arrows, so they are very close to the camp. Moreover, the catapults used by Yuan Jun this time were only ten, and the maximum distance of the shooting was ten feet."

After explaining it, Zhang He continued: "As for the archers sent by Gao Lan, they are about thirty feet away from the camp, but they are all fired arrows without any accuracy. What to solve and resist, the first thing is these two."

The generals nodded and waited for Zhang Ji to give orders.

Zhang He waved his hand and ordered: "Arrowman, get ready!"

As the order was issued, fifty archers came out. These archers, five in groups, were well prepared. After they appeared, they quickly came to the arrow tower built in the camp and aimed at the catapult outside the city to attack.

This attack is not an ordinary counterattack.

The five soldiers each performed their duties, one of whom held an iron shield to block the arrows shot. The other two fought back with ordinary bows and arrows, with the target of soldiers who added stones to the catapult cart ten feet away. The remaining two soldiers cooperated with each other. The arrows taken out by one were arrows wrapped with tincture-soaked arrows. The other ignited the fire and attacked the catapult cart ten feet away.

Ten groups of archers launched fierce attacks on ten catapults outside the camp.

At this time, Zhang He issued another order.

The soldiers in the camp brought bags of burlap bags filled with mud and sand. The bags were piled up and formed a line of defense to resist the bows and arrows shot from outside the camp.

Gao Lan's attack was like a tiger, but Zhang He was not slow and slow to resist Gao Lan's attack.

The two sides have not yet had a confrontation in military force, but the battle is fierce.

Zhang He made defensive measures, waved his hand and ordered: "Prepare the crossbow!"

Immediately, the soldiers in the camp began to act again.

Soldiers took crossbows and quickly came to the inside of the defense line built by the sack and placed the crossbows on the sandbag. These crossbows were giant crossbows in the army, a giant crossbow, and two bows and arrows could be placed on it, which was equivalent to two archers shooting.

After the arrangement was completed, Zhang He said, "Lord, this battle has begun."

In fact, the confrontation has indeed just begun.

It took not long, and Zhang He's arrangement had an effect.

Outside the camp, catapults caught fire one after another. Next to the catapults, soldiers who added stones and cast stones were constantly shot and killed.

Without the soldiers, the catapult car caught fire, and the catapult car quickly lost its effect.

Wang Lei laughed and said, "Junyi, the other party's catapult has lost its effect. Your arrangement is very good."

Zhang He seemed very calm and said lightly: "Lord, it is normal for the catapult to lose its effect. Although the catapult arranged by Gao Lan is effective in attack, it is placed in front of me without any precautions. This is for me to destroy. If it were me, I would never use the catapult like this, which is a waste of resources."

There was a strong disdain in his tone.

Wang Lei nodded with satisfaction, his eyes turned, and then fell on the battlefield again.

When the two sides confronted each other, the catapult cart lost its function, and the bows and arrows shot did not play much role. Gao Lan was not in a hurry to see this. On the one hand, he asked his archers to continue firing bows and arrows to suppress the power of Wang Lei's camp. On the other hand, Gao Lan ordered: "Send the order, the vanguard army charges and breaks through Wang Lei's camp."

The order was issued, and three thousand soldiers were the pioneers and launched the first wave of attacks.

There are countless soldiers.

When Wang Lei saw Yuan Jun launching a substantial attack, he shook his head gently. Wang Lei could see clearly what Zhang He had just made. It was very difficult for Yuan Jun to break through the camp of the front camp.

Gradually, Yuan's soldiers approached the camp, and the distance was less than thirty feet.

Soon, the distance shortened again, and almost twenty feet were left.

Wang Lei saw it, and there was a hint of confusion between his eyebrows. Until now, does Zhang He still plan to fight back head-on? Should he have to let the opponent's soldiers approach before he starts to fight back?

Although he was confused, Wang Lei did not intervene and allowed Zhang He to command.

When the distance was less than twenty feet, the Yuan soldiers who were charging, their surging momentum was suddenly frustrated. One by one, the Yuan soldiers suddenly fell to the ground and screamed loudly. When this scene appeared, Wang Lei understood it and said, "Junyi, within twenty feet of the outside of the camp, have you placed caltrops?"

Zhang He nodded and replied, "Lord wisely. Except for the official road at the entrance of the camp, there are caltrops in the rest of the places. Gao Lan still has difficulties in trying to get the soldiers to attack in large numbers. And the official road outside the door also has defenses such as refusing horses. It is not so easy to approach the camp."
