Chapter 220 Expecting the enemy to come first

He wanted to be the first to get there, so that he could become the first person under Yu Du's command and have the opportunity to replace Yu Du as the leader of the Yellow Turban Army in the future.

"Xiao Shuai, I can't stand it anymore, please retreat first."

A school captain knelt down next to Zhang Hu, covered in blood, with a wolf-fang arrow stuck in his shoulder.

"Withdraw? No one is allowed to withdraw. Tell everyone, whoever can climb the city wall first, I will reward him with a hundred taels of gold and ten beauties."

After listening to the captain's words, Zhang Hu's face showed a fierce look, and he directly added his own reward to Yu Du's reward. It seemed that he had to win this first achievement.

As soon as Zhang Hu finished speaking, a small halberd fell from the sky and nailed him to the ground.

"Xiao Shuai is dead, everyone run away."

"Run~"

"Help."

As soon as Zhang Hu died, the Yellow Turban Army under his command exploded instantly, discarding their helmets and armor, and fled behind in embarrassment.

"You dare to reveal your identity in front of me. I'm really tired of living."

Dian Wei watched everything in front of him from the top of the city. When the captain knelt down to Zhang Hu, he knew it was a big fish, so he flew out with his halberd and nailed it to the ground.

"Wang Bing, Lu Yang, you two attack together."

Seeing Zhang Hu's army retreating, Yu Du frowned and simply sent 20,000 people to attack at the same time this time.

"Dong dong dong."

The rumbling war drums resounded throughout the sky again, and 20,000 Yellow Turban troops armed with steel knives charged towards the head of Anyang City.

"You're good to go. I'm ready to roll rocks and logs. Also, how's the golden sauce cooking?"

Seeing the new Yellow Turban army coming, Dian Wei was not afraid at all.

"Sir, the golden juice is ready."

A school captain knelt in front of Dian Wei and spoke to him.

"Okay, I'll follow your orders later."

"promise."

Golden juice was a necessary weapon for defending cities in ancient times. It was made by collecting various feces and adding water to boil them, then pouring them down to injure the enemy.

Golden juice is different from boiling water. Boiling water can only be used for burns. Gold juice is different. It not only has the properties of boiling water, but also has the effects of wounding and poisoning. Enemies who are poured with golden juice will basically contract diseases while wailing.

, will undoubtedly die.

The new force was so brave that they rushed directly to the bottom of the city wall despite the rain of arrows. Then they held their steel knives in their mouths and began to climb along the ladder. At the same time, they shot shuttles one by one to the top of the city.

From a distance, the Yellow Turban Army is everywhere on the Anyang City Wall, just like a group of yellow ants climbing up.

The battle was fierce, but facing the Anyang City with abundant troops and strong defenses, the Yellow Turban Army had no chance at all.

After fighting for two hours, 30,000 horses and horses were killed and nearly 10,000 were killed and wounded, but the city was not even touched. As for Dianwei, the casualties were only a few hundred, not a thousand.

Yu Du looked at the nearby Anyang City and thought about Yuan Shu in the city, and he couldn't help but feel itchy.

"Siping, do you have any clever ideas?"

Hearing Yu Du's cry, a scholar-looking yellow scarf came to his side.

"Commander, Anyang City is not easy to chew."

"I know, otherwise I wouldn't ask you."

Looking at the scholar, Yu Du couldn't help but feel agitated.

This scholar's name was Yu He, and his courtesy name was Siping. He was a filial and honest man who was kidnapped by Yu Du. He had no choice but to surrender to the Yellow Turban.

Although Yu He defected to the Yellow Turban, he was still a filial and honest person, but he was very arrogant. He usually acted like I am talented and I am powerful. If it weren’t for the fact that Yu He and he were from the same family, Yu Du would have put him down long ago.

He cut it.

This resulted in Yu Du not wanting to talk to him unless there was an emergency like this.

"Commander, I think it will be difficult to capture the city during the day. We might as well wait until night and let's attack from both the top and bottom. We will attack the city by flying in the open and dig tunnels secretly. We will definitely be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop."

Yu He still had something to gain. Faced with the difficult city of Anyang, he immediately thought of the authentic method.

"Okay, I'll listen to your words, call for gold and withdraw the troops. The army will rest temporarily and fight again in the evening."

"Dang Dang Dang"

A series of golden sounds sounded, and the Yellow Turban troops who besieged Anyang City were relieved and retreated towards their own army.

"General, they are withdrawing."

Seeing the enemy retreating, a junior high school student excitedly told Dian Wei.

"Why are you so happy? It's time for the Yellow Turban Army to change their strategy. I want everyone to be more careful at night."

Dian Wei looked at the retreating Yellow Turban Army with a glint in his eyes. According to the Yellow Turban Army's tactics, when attacking a city, they usually attack the city in one go, using the advantage of the sea of ​​people to swamp the enemy.

If you stop fighting in the middle of the battle, you probably find the city difficult to conquer and want to devise some conspiracy.

"How did the general know they were going to attack at night?"

Hearing Dian Wei's words, the principal was stunned.

"Just watch, we'll find out in the evening."

After Dian Wei finished speaking, he walked down the city wall without looking back. He was going to report to Yuan Shu and Tian Feng on the battle situation.

"Do you think the Yellow Turban Army will attack at night?"

Tian Feng looked at Dian Wei.

"Well, judging from my many years of war experience with the Yellow Turbans, something will happen tonight."

Dian Wei looked at Tian Feng and nodded firmly.

"My lord, if the Yellow Turbans attack the city at night, they must be attacking in both false and true ways. It cannot be ignored."

Hearing Dian Wei's confirmed words, Tian Feng couldn't help but frown.

"How to say?"

Yuan Shu looked at Tian Feng and didn't know what he meant.

"My lord, the Yellow Turbans lost more than 10,000 troops under Anyang City during the day. They already know that they cannot capture Anyang by force, so they will definitely use another trick to attack the city tonight, and there is only one trick for this, and that is the tunnel."

Tian Feng saw through the Yellow Turban Army's plan at a glance.

"Digging a tunnel? Haha, I think I used this trick when I rescued the Young Emperor."

Hearing that the Yellow Turban Army was going to dig a tunnel, Yuan Shu couldn't help but smile, recalling the past when they attacked Hongnong Palace.

"My lord, you can now place large urns at each corner of the city wall and place them underground. If the Yellow Turbans want to steal the city from the tunnel, you can predict it in advance and take corresponding precautions."

Tian Feng lightly stroked his beard, smiled and said how to deal with it.

"Well, Dian Wei just follow Tian Feng's method. Remember, place more big urns and don't let the yellow scarf thief take advantage of it."

"No, I'll do it right away."

Dian Wei nodded, secretly saying it was a pleasure to meet him.

If it weren't for Tian Feng, he might have only prepared for the Yellow Turban Army's night attack, but ignored that they would dig tunnels from the ground to attack. If the enemy really stole the chicken, it would not be a shameful thing.

"Yuan Hao, if the enemy really attacks the city through tunnels, then we will catch the turtles in a urn, deploy troops and horses outside the enemy's passage, wait until the Yellow Turbans break out of the ground, and shoot them directly."

Looking at Tian Feng, Yuan Shu expressed his thoughts.

"This is a very clever plan."

Tian Feng nodded. In fact, most of the techniques for dealing with tunnels are flooding with water, smoke, or sending troops to dig horizontally and fight troops against troops. It is rare to release the enemy out of the tunnel for sniping.

But Yuan Shu's idea is not bad. As long as he deploys enough troops and horses and uses the power of bows and crossbows, he can rely on tunnels to continuously kill the enemy and cause excessive damage to them.

The day passed quickly, and both Yuan Shufang and the Yellow Turban Army were recharging their energy and waiting for night to fall.

"Commander, you can start."
