In a heavy siege, the role of shotguns was to annihilate the enemy's effective strength. A hail of stone bullets caused nearly a thousand casualties among Zhang Yang's troops. Even holding a shield was of no avail.
"Hide behind the wall, or behind the stone bullets, the shield is useless, hurry up, hurry up."
Hao Zhao hid behind the wall and shouted anxiously to the soldiers, because a new wave of stone bullets was coming again.
Death is the best teacher. Hao Zhao didn't need to remind him. The soldiers who had just climbed up the city wall had already begun to look for bunkers. Some were leaning behind the wall stacks, and some were hiding behind the stone bullets on the city wall.
Even so, hundreds of people were beaten to pieces by shotguns and their blood flowed into rivers.
Stone bullets were flying above their heads, Zhang Yang's army was hiding behind the North Pass, but the soldiers of the Tiger Army were advancing steadily as always.
"Flybridge car."
When he arrived at the moat, Yan Liang waved his iron gun, and his own militia pushed dozens of strange vehicles out of the formation. Under the operation of the sergeant, sections of wooden ladders were spit out like bridge boards and erected on the moat.
"board."
The wooden ladder had been set up, and countless soldiers carried the neat wooden planks directly to the wooden ladder. In the blink of an eye, the wooden ladder bridge had turned into a wooden plank bridge.
"sandbag."
The plank bridge was erected, but the Tiger Army still did not attack, because the plank bridge could only support the passage of soldiers, and their towers needed to use sandbags to create a passage.
"Sir, you must not let the enemy's tower come over."
Hao Zhao looked at the soldiers filling the river and shouted loudly to Zhang Yang.
"If you can't get through, be prepared with archers and rockets."
According to the ordnance technology of the Three Kingdoms, the biggest fear of large wooden facilities such as towers is rockets, but the tower built by Yuan Shu's craftsman is not something that can be judged by common sense.
Because his towers are all reinforced, with a layer of steel plates in front and back, ordinary rockets cannot penetrate the defenses, let alone ignite them.
"General, the road is open."
A soldier came to Wen Chou and reported to him the situation of paving the road.
"The whole army attacks, the heavy armored infantry protects the ladder, and the tower archers suppress it."
Wen Chou's military orders were passed on step by step. The heavy armored infantry of the Tiger Army marched forward with shields, escorting the ladders to rush towards the city wall through the Banqiao. The archers on the towers also bent their bows and arrows to protect the head of Beiguan City.
Zhang Yangjun carried out suppressive shooting.
"Fight back, the soldiers waiting below the city will mount the city wall."
Because the trebuchets were afraid of accidentally injuring themselves, they have now suspended their offensive. The soldiers on the top of the city finally got a chance to breathe. They bent their bows and arrows to attack the tiger army below the city. The soldiers waiting below the city wall also boarded the top of the city.
, join the fight.
"The trebuchet extends its fire to buy Wen Chou time."
Seeing the counterattack starting on the city, Yuan Shu directly ordered the trebuchets to continue the attack.
"promise."
"Extended fire, ready, five shots."
"put."
The stone bullets whizzed in, and Zhang Yangjun on the top of the city was frightened. They gave up archery without any warning and hid in a safe place.
"be cheated."
Listening to the roar inside the city wall, Hao Zhao immediately knew that they had been fooled, but by the time they realized it, it was already too late.
"Put up a ladder."
Although stone bullets were flying wildly above his head, Wen Chou didn't care at all, because he knew that Yuan Shu would definitely not joke about the names of his soldiers, and it would definitely be an extended shot.
Dozens of ladder trucks stretched out directly, and the ladders were all set up on the top of the city guarding Beiguan.
"rush."
Wen Chou gave an order, and the soldiers of the Tiger Army climbed up the ladder to the top of the city with their steel knives in their teeth like spiritual apes.
"Kick them out."
Zhang Yang seemed to be waking up from a dream, shouting at his soldiers, trying to drive the Tiger Army soldiers away.
As the saying goes, it is easier to invite gods than to send them away. Since the Tiger Army had climbed onto the city wall, they did not even think about going down. They fought bravely and fearlessly against the charging Zhang Yangjun one by one.
The battle at the top of the small city guarding Beiguan escalated instantly. Fierce fighting broke out at the exit of each ladder. Although the number of Zhang Yang's troops was much higher than that of the Tiger Army, the Tiger Army was like nails nailed to the top of the city, guarding the city.
The ladder will not be pushed down.
As time went by, more and more soldiers of the Tiger Army climbed onto the city wall, and they began to press against Zhang Yang's army. At the same time, the towers also reached the edge of the city wall.
"Open the straps."
The ten steel slabs were instantly released, crushing the Zhang Yangjun soldiers who were about to stop them into meat pies.
"Heavy infantry, enter."
Heavy armored infantry are not good at climbing, but towers are different.
Soldiers in heavy armor jumped onto the city wall through the building blocks and began to kill the surrounding Zhang Yangjun soldiers crazily.
"Lord, the situation has been decided."
Looking at the battle on the city wall, Xun You smiled at Yuan Shu.
"Well, tell the Ying Yang Army and Wei Lu Army to prepare to intercept Zhang Yang."
There is no suspense about the battle on the city wall, now it's time to look at the cavalry.
"promise."
The cavalry lined up on both sides of the army heard Yuan Shu's military order and immediately started to maneuver towards the rear of Hubeiguan.
"My lord, I can't stop you anymore, let's go quickly."
Yang Chou looked at the erosive battle and knelt directly in front of Zhang Yang.
"No, I still have elite soldiers, and I haven't lost yet."
Zhang Yang, however, stared with his eyes wide open. He did not believe the results in front of him. He did not believe that Hubeiguan, which he was heavily guarding, was vulnerable to Yuan Shu's attack.
"My lord, the North Guard Pass is gone. We still have Yuhe Pass, Fenqian Pass, and Changzi City. But if we waste it here, it will be over."
Now Yang Chou really wants to slap Zhang Yang in the face. If he loses, there is nothing he can't accept.
"No, I am not defeated, I want to kill Yuan Shu."
As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, blood spurted out and he fell down.
Zhang Yang fainted and just as Yang Chou wanted to do, he picked up Zhang Yang and rushed directly towards the city.
"The cavalry will leave with the escort lord and open the city gate."
Five thousand cavalry escorted Yang Chou and Zhang Yang, abandoning the protection of Beiguan and rushing towards Changzi City.
"Boss, the governor has escaped."
As soon as Zhang Yang ran away, the entire city guarding Beiguan was in chaos, and the fighting and bravery of Zhang Yang's soldiers turned into shit.
"Damn, I'm still here trying my best, but he ran away."
Hearing this, Hao Zhao, who had killed the tiger army around him with one sword, roared loudly like an angry lion.
"Then what should we do?"
The soldier looked at the angry Hao Zhao and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"What should I do? Surrender, I will no longer serve you."
Eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor are the things to do, but now you treat me like a piece of grass. If an adult like this continues to do anything to him, then he is mentally ill.
Hao Zhao slammed the steel knife to the ground with a clang.
"Even so, I won't serve you anymore."
"Fuck, surrender."
"Yes, if you don't surrender now, are you waiting to be killed and drunk?"
