Liu Yao fell into a coma, which immediately shocked Xu Shao and others. If it were normal, Liu Yao would not be so nervous when he was in a coma, but currently, Liu Yao is the backbone of the 50,000-strong army in Moling City. Once he is unconscious,
The man was in trouble, so there was no need to fight this battle. He quickly sent for a doctor, and after a while of massage, Liu Yao was revived.
"Where is Yuan Shu? Has Yuan Shu sent reinforcements?" When Liu Yao woke up, the first thing he did was to ask about the movements of Yuan Shu's army. Now that his own troops could not be counted on, he could only place his hope on Yuan Shu's Yuan Yuanjun.
Already.
"Yuan Shu has sent 50,000 troops from Huainan to capture Dantu." Shiyi said with a wry smile on his face.
"When will the troops be sent out?" Liu Yao's eyes lit up, and then he noticed something was wrong with Shiyi's expression, and asked quickly.
"...the day before yesterday." Shiyi hesitated for a moment and then said.
"The day before yesterday!? What was the result of the battle?" Liu Yao was stunned. The troops of Qingtian City are all here now. The generals Xu Rong, Gao Chong, Guan Hai... but there are no generals Ling Cao and Huang Gai. Thinking of this, Liu Yao can't help but feel.
He sank and grabbed Shiyi's lapel.
"Say it!" Liu Yao's eyes were already bloodshot. Seeing Shi Yi's hesitation, he wanted to pick him up and pinch his neck to force him to speak.
"Returning to my lord, Yuan Shu sent out 50,000 troops, but Dan Tu's guard Liao Hua took control outside Dan Tu's city, and navy admiral Huang Gai intercepted the warship. The 50,000 troops were trapped by Dan Tu and could not advance or retreat," Shiyi said.
, did not dare to look at Liu Yao. At this point, Yuan Shu's army could no longer be counted on.
Liu Yao's eyes were a little dull. Everyone was looking at Liu Yao with concern, whether it was sincere or not, but now Liu Yao couldn't help it. Xu Shao raised his head and caught the flash of pride in Shi Yi's eyes.
He opened his mouth, but did not speak. He just glanced at Liu Yao and sighed deeply. He could feel that even if Liu Yao cheered up, it would not be of much use to the current war situation. Speaking rashly would not only help matters.
It doesn't help, but may bring disaster to yourself.
In June 191 AD, the 7th year of the reincarnation calendar, Qin Tian successfully completed the general siege of Moling in half a month. At the same time, Yuan Shu sent troops to Dantu, but they were defeated by the combined efforts of Liao Hua and Huang Gai. From then on, Yuan Shushui
With the army completely destroyed and no longer able to threaten Jiangdong in the short term, Qin Tian could finally let go and launch a general attack on Liu Yao.
After the army formed a formation, Qin Tian raised his gun and pointed at the Moling city wall, waved the gun and said in a deep voice: "Attack the city!"
The triangular flag in the hands of the messengers who stood solemnly behind Qin Tian kept waving. In an instant, the continuous sound of war drums suddenly turned passionate, the originally low horn sound suddenly became louder, and the Qingtian City sergeants who had been waiting for the formation began to slow down.
The people moved towards Moling City in unison and in unison. The speed was not too fast. However, with each advance, the murderous aura on their bodies would become stronger. The murderous auras of tens of thousands of people gathered together and pressed overwhelmingly towards the city.
Danyang soldiers.
On the city, Xue Li looked a little pale. It was the first time he saw an army with such a majestic momentum. In comparison, although the Danyang soldiers were known as the best soldiers in the world, due to their lax armaments, they faced the mighty Qingtian City army.
Everyone was confused.
Zhang Ying rode a war horse and kept running back and forth at the top of the city, commanding the soldiers to prepare and at the same time boosting morale. They were both generals, and their strength was similar, but compared to Xue Li, Zhang Ying at least had the bearing of a famous general.
Boom boom boom~
Seeing that Qingtian City's army was approaching the point where an arrow could be fired, Zhang Ying said sternly: "Archers, draw your bows and nock your arrows!"
Five thousand archers came to the wall in a chaotic manner, lining up their bows and arrows. Many archers were frightened by the enemy's momentum and sheathed their swords. Many arrows were shot out crookedly, flying less than ten meters.
, then landed softly.
Outside Moling City
"Heavy infantry advance, strong archers suppress it! Kill!" Gao Chong's face was expressionless, with a murderous look on his handsome face.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Rows of heavy armored infantry wearing thick scales let out neat shouts of killing, and the pervasive murderous aura condensed. Archers holding strong bows, guarded by the heavy armored infantry, began to bend their bows and set arrows. Up and down the city,
But they were two different manifestations. The strong murderous aura made many soldiers on the city wall tremble with fear, especially the three blasts of the word "kill". Many Danyang soldiers suddenly dropped their bows and arrows, turned around and ran away.
"Kill those who run away from battle!" Zhang Ying's face showed a fierce murderous intention, and he grunted, and the law enforcement team who followed him quickly sprang out, and the steel knife in his hand ruthlessly killed dozens of soldiers who ran away from battle.
, suppressed the originally restless soldiers. Forced by the power of the law enforcement team, the originally unstable people at the top of the city calmed down, and each stood at their posts, holding onto the weapons in their hands.
The heavy shields intertwined into suffocating solid walls, moving slowly but firmly towards the Moling city wall. In the suffocating breath, time seemed to be confused, it seemed to be very slow, and it seemed to be very fast. In the blink of an eye,
The shield wall has been advanced to a hundred steps away from the city head.
On the tower, Zhang Ying's eyes narrowed and he shouted: "Fire the arrow!"
Whoosh whoosh~
There was a messy sound of breaking through the air, and rows of scattered arrows shot down from the tower.
"Erect the shield!" Gao Chong gave the order from below the city tower, and the heavy armored infantry slammed the heavy shield in their hands to the ground. There was a deafening loud noise, and the strong shields connected together, forming a knot.
It formed a solid wall, and the rain of arrows poured down. Amidst the muffled sound, the big shield was instantly filled with arrow feathers, but the soldiers hiding behind the big shield were not injured at all.
"Fire the arrows!" "Fire the arrows!" Zhang Ying and Xue Li kept shouting from the city tower. Five thousand archers kept firing arrows. In just a moment, they finished shooting the arrows in the arrow pot. When they saw
The heavy armored infantry of Qingtian City below the city were not damaged at all, and Zhang Ying's eyes almost burst into flames.
Among the troops in Qingtian City, Xu Rong waved his order and said expressionlessly: "Strong archers, attack!"
The order flag in the hand of the ordering soldier waved twice.
"Strong Archer, advance!"
The loud sound of the horn resounded through the military formation, and the strong archers who had been waiting for the battle quickly ran forward and lined up behind the shield wall of the heavy armored infantry. The longbows were already in their hands, and the sharp arrows were cocked. With just a military order, these battlefield-experienced and indifferent soldiers
, they will not hesitate to show their most ferocious fangs to the enemy, ruthlessly slaughtering anyone who dares to resist.
Under the protection of several shieldmen, Gao Chong looked at the panicked archers and shieldmen on the top of the city. A cruel smile appeared in his eyes, and the Dragon Soul Gun in his hand suddenly pointed forward.
Fifteen thousand strong archers were divided into three square formations, each with five thousand men, and each formation was further divided into five thousand-man teams. The generals of each formation roared: "Fire arrows!"
The first row of thousands of soldiers in each formation stepped forward, drew their bows, and fired. A cloud of arrows shot up into the sky with a buzzing sound, and shot towards the Danyang soldiers at the top of the city. Immediately afterwards, the second row of thousands of soldiers opened their bows and fired arrows.
, following the first row of arrows, the third row... the fourth row...
Five platoons of thousands of people took turns shooting, and the arrows shot into the sky, forming a continuous line, blocking out the sky and the sun.
When attacking a city, one must suppress it with an arrow array. The method used is this. Jia Xu learned it from ancient books and passed it on to the generals of Qingtian City. However, he is just a beginner after all, and cannot be as good as what is said in the book.
, making it impossible for the enemy to fight back.
Among the military units in the Samsara Three Kingdoms, although there are various top-notch special units, in general large-scale battles, the sword, shield and archers that can be recruited from the fourth-level barracks are used. These are the most conventional units.
The wooden shields held by the shieldmen and the light leather armors worn by the archers were unable to stop the whizzing arrows. What's more, these strong archers were all strengthened by the sixth-level barracks. They were Qingtian City's strong archers.
Qin Tian's main combat force, including the city defenders, has a total strength of about 300,000, but there are only 15,000 strong archers.
As a bonus, the arrows shot are extremely sharp, and simple wooden shields and weak leather armor cannot effectively defend against it.
Xue Li was holding a large shield in his hand. He saw that several soldiers in front of him had dozens of arrows inserted into their bodies in an instant, and fell to the ground screaming. His heart was filled with chills. It was unimaginable that Qingtian City's army
, has such terrifying combat power!
Thousands of defenders were shot down by arrows, but the arrow rain showed no sign of stopping. Zhang Ying's rough cheeks kept twitching and his heart was bleeding, but he had to send batches of soldiers to the front line to fight back.
Arrow Rain, if we retreat from the city wall and let the enemy occupy the city wall, then they will not even have the last chance.
…
In Moling City, Shiyi hurriedly walked out of Liu Yao's house, holding a token in his hand.
"Ziyu, where are you going in such a hurry?" A clear voice sounded from behind. Shiyi's body couldn't help but trembled. She hesitated for a moment, turned around, and saw Xu Shao arriving unhurriedly.
In front of Shiyi.
"Mr. Zijiang, why are you calling me?" A dry smile appeared on his face, and Shiyi swallowed.
Looking at Shi Yi, Xu Shao sighed slightly and said quietly: "Righteousness does not distinguish between right and wrong. If you listen to slander, I don't blame you if you want to betray him."
"What are you talking about, sir?" Shiyi laughed dryly, feeling that her mouth was a little sour.
"You know very well what I said." Xu Shao shook his head, looked at Shiyi, and said solemnly: "It's just that the king and his ministers are at odds. I hope Ziyu can leave a way for Zhengli to survive when the city is destroyed."
"Sir...you..." Shiyi hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, looked at Xu Shao seriously and said: "Mr. Zijiang, it's not that you are ungrateful, but Liu Zhengli treats me like a hawk. Really..."
"Don't say it, I know it all." Xu Shao smiled bitterly. Taishi Ci's incident has caused the people of this small Moling City to become distracted. At this time of crisis, people are distracted. This is a sign of national subjugation!
"Sir, why don't you come with me to Lord Qingtian? I think he has the ability to recognize people and use them. Your talent is worse than mine. Why not..." Shiyi couldn't help but say.
"Don't say any more, Qingtian is not the one I know in my heart. Now that Liu Zhengli is gone, there is nothing human can do. I just want to find a life for him. It is a delusion for me to defect to Qingtian." Xu Shao shook his head, turned and left.
Looking at the direction Xu Shao was leaving, Shiyi smiled bitterly, then turned solemnly and ran towards the prison.
