Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 106 Siege Battle

In the morning, before the first ray of winter sunshine reached Cheng Huang's camp, the horn for the troops' assembly had already sounded.

Cheng Huang immediately ordered Xu Shu, Gan Ning and Wei Yan to assemble the team and rush to the main tent of the Chinese army by himself.

Inside the big tent, heroes from all walks of life had already arrived. Yuan Shu stood in front of the general's chair in blue armor, with piercing eyes, looking a little mighty.

Beside him is Xu Miao in a Confucian costume.Sun Jian and Ji Ling separated on both sides, guarding the two leaders.

"Everyone, my Jingzhou army is here for Wancheng. It is the responsibility of every big man and citizen to eliminate the moth thieves and return me to a peaceful and prosperous life. Today's first attack on the city, we should show our momentum, Give the enemy a blow."

When Yuan Shu got serious, he still had a bit of momentum, just listen to him continue: "Today's siege will mainly focus on the southern city wall, and the other gates will support it."

"Sun Jian, Ji Ling,"

Sun Jian and Ji Ling hurried to the middle of the tent, and arched their hands towards Yuan Shu, "Yes,"

"I order the two of you to lead 20 soldiers and horses to attack the south gate. Remember, even if it's a feint attack, you must show your momentum." Yuan Shu said, took out a command arrow and handed it to Sun Jian. go.

"Han Xuan, Zhang Xian, the two of you lead an army of [-] and support them in the west,"

"Cheng Huang, Xing Daorong, the two of you lead an army of [-] and support you in the east,"

……

Yuan Shu didn't know who was guiding him, but the team was arranged in an orderly manner.

"It seems that Yue Yue has not been able to persuade Yuan Shu!" Cheng Huang thought to himself, and walked out of the Chinese army tent with Xing Daorong.

"General Xing, we are going to fight the enemy together again," Cheng Huang said with a smile.The two quickly assembled their teams and ran towards the east.

The sun is gradually rising, and the imperial army has assembled outside Wancheng.

Outside Wancheng, flags fluttered, and the world chilled.

Outside the southern city, hundreds of thousands of troops stood awe-inspiring, teams from various forces with different armors.But the soldiers all held the weapons in their hands tightly, looking at the yellow scarves on the top of the wall with piercing eyes.

The ladders and catapults had already been assembled, and hundreds of ladders stood high in the middle of the team.

Sun Jian and Ji Ling rode war horses and stood majesticly in front of the team, waiting for an order to rush straight to the city.

Outside the east city, Cheng Huang led Xing Daorong, Gan Ning and other generals to gather outside the city.The army of more than [-] is also a dense mass of darkness.

They had no siege equipment and were helpless against the high walls and moats.Of course, their task is only to support the frontal attack.All they did was to prevent the Yellow Turbans from leaving the city.

"Dong dong dong dong..."

The sound of war drums and shouts of killing at the south gate proved that the frontal siege battle had begun.

"General Xing, shouldn't we also move!" Cheng Huang said.

"Everything is up to General Cheng's orders." Xing Daorong said.

"Okay," Cheng Huang immediately ordered Gan Ning to lead [-] cavalry to attack the city, so as to attract the attention of the Yellow Turban.Then ordered the soldiers to wave their flags and shout together.

At present, Cheng Huang can only do this. After all, without siege equipment, forcibly attacking the city is to give away the head.

In Nancheng, the battle has already begun.

The sword and shield soldiers in heavy armor, holding their shields, rushed to the front. What they had to do was to cover the soldiers pushing the ladder behind.

Light infantry, carrying long ladders, walked behind, followed by soldiers pushing ladders.

They only need to erect the ladder, then fall to the opposite side, and lay planks to form a simple bridge, through which the ladder and soldiers can reach the city.

Of course, the price of doing so would be heavy. To complete the task of building a bridge under the rain of arrows from the city defenders, many soldiers would die.

On the top of the city, Wang Teng narrowed his eyes.In his opinion, these siege soldiers are for gaining experience, so he has sent his elite player army to the front of the city.

With the barrier of the city wall, it is a perfect card position!Killing enemies on the battlefield will not only earn points, but experience points will also soar.

Soon, the siege team was within range of the archers at the top of the city.

"Shoot!" Following Wang Teng's order, arrows poured down like locusts towards the attacking court army.

Although there were shields from the sword and shield soldiers in front to resist, many siege soldiers were killed in the first round of arrow rain.

War is cruel, and death is even more inevitable.

As ordinary soldiers, the fate is tragic, dying in battle, no one can remember their names.

There were screams, the soldiers in front fell down, and the soldiers behind followed immediately. Every step forward to the city wall would cost the lives of countless soldiers.

Yuan Shu, who was supervising the battle behind, was fine, but Xu Miao was stunned. As a Confucian scholar, he had never seen such a scene before. He felt his legs were weak and his stomach was churning. He even regretted coming to this battlefield. .

After sacrificing countless soldiers, the siege team finally came to the moat, the bridge made of wooden ladders was finally built, and the ladder was pushed under the city wall.

However, now they have to face the rolling stones of the soldiers at the top of the city!A stone weighing a hundred catties fell down, and even wearing a helmet, he couldn't get rid of the end of death.

Finally, the first ladder climbed up to the top of the city, and the first troops who had already been prepared stepped on the ladder and rushed towards the top of the city. Of course, what they had to face was the giant log rolling down from the ladder.

Seeing that the ladder had already reached the top of the wall, Sun Jian's eyes showed a bloodthirsty light, and his belligerent character was fully revealed. Following his loud shout, he rushed towards the ladder with four of his men.

Soon, five figures stepped onto the ladder, like five big birds, picking up the sharp arrows and flying over the top of the city.

As soon as he got to the top of the city, Sun Jian knocked the protruding spears flying with his sword, and stopped drinking all over his body, which made the guarding soldiers dizzy.

After a while, the five generals established a small position at the head of the city, and fought with the reinforcements from the special unit of yellow scarf warriors.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed to see that Sun Jian had already captured the top of the city. "Sun Wentai is really brave, and he is worthy of the name of Jiangdong tiger."

However, at this time, a war horse came galloping, and an orderly dismounted in front of Yuan Shu, and fell to his knees.

"Report to the fierce lord, the deputy lord, something is wrong. A large group of yellow scarves appeared behind our army. General Zhu couldn't resist, so he came to ask for help."

Before the messenger could finish his sentence, another horseman flew up again.

"League leader, deputy leader, in the southeast direction, also found a large number of yellow scarf army, killing here."

……

Several reports in a row shocked Yuan Shu, he finally understood one thing, his hundreds of thousands of troops had been surrounded.

"Well, what should I do!" Xu Miao, who had never experienced the battlefield, immediately turned pale and at a loss.

Yuan Shu also broke out in a cold sweat, but he was still awake, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up and withdraw the troops."
