Lu Bu's strongest strategy

Chapter 54 High Platform
When the morning sun fell on the branches, Lu Bu's army lined up outside the city again, with the rumble of war drums and the sound of horns.

Song Xian and Wei Xu led 800 elite soldiers, standing in front of the battle with high morale.

On the city wall, the golden juice had already boiled, and the soup was tumbling violently in the cauldron, emitting bursts of white mist, floating in the air.

Cao Jun soldiers guarding the city wall all tied their mouths and noses with cloth strips, and stood standing in the white mist emitting a foul smell.

The archer has already picked up the success on his back, and is holding an arrow in his other hand, ready for battle.

Countless rolling stones and huge logs were placed within the soldiers' easy reach. As long as Lu Bu's army rushed up, they could launch a counterattack immediately.

Xiahou Dun looked at the state of the soldiers, nodded in satisfaction, turned to look in the direction of Lu Bujun, and snorted coldly.

"Little Lu Bu, come on, I have been waiting for a long time."

Xue Ti's injured arm was already wrapped in cloth, but his spirit was extremely excited. He kept pointing in the direction of Lu Bujun and roared loudly.

"Little Lu Bu, if you have the ability to attack the city, let you taste the power of golden juice, haha!"

Although Cheng Yu didn't speak, looking at the soldiers of Lu Bu's army preparing to attack the city, he felt a little bit of anticipation in his heart.

What kind of screams will they make when the golden juice is poured on them?
Jin Yun and Wang Xiaowei stood in front of the city gate, and kept asking the soldiers to strictly defend.

The task of the two of them is not only to defend the city gate, but also to guard whether there are any suspicious figures near the city gate. Otherwise, if Dong'e's situation reappears, it will be too late to regret.

For the sake of safety, Jin Yun had issued a notice two days ago.

During the defense period, if anyone comes in and out at will and gathers in front of the city gate, they will be immediately shot and killed for collaborating with the enemy.

Although this move was vicious, it was very effective. The entire street was empty.

Boom boom boom!
Oh oh oh!
With the sound of war drums, Lu Bu rode his horse to the front of the formation and shouted loudly at the city wall.

"Xiahoudun, this Marquis will give you a chance. If you surrender now, this Marquis can ignore the past..."

Before Lu Bu finished speaking, Xue Ti immediately jumped out and shouted, "Little Lu Bu, stop talking nonsense, come and attack the city if you have the ability, or go back quickly."

Seeing Xue Ti jumping up and down like a little monkey, speaking arrogant words, Lu Bu wanted to slap him to death and roared angrily.

"Xue Ti, if you break the city, this Marquis will be the first to spare you!"

Xue Ti looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, "Little Lu Bu, come here if you have the ability, my uncle is waiting for you, haha."

Lu Bu gritted his teeth, his eyes seemed to burst into anger, and he roared, "Wei Yue, prepare to attack the city."

Xiahou Dun's heart trembled, and he hurriedly shouted, "The whole army is ready, Lu Bu's army is about to start construction."

Xue Ti looked up to the sky and laughed, "Let them taste the power of golden juice today, haha."

Cheng Yu also took a deep breath, preparing to wait for Lu Bu's army to attack.

No, the soldiers of Lu Bu's army standing in front of the formation did not launch an attack immediately, but still stood there awe-inspiring.

Just when Xiahou Dun was puzzled, he saw a group of young and strong soldiers carrying logs running out of Lu Bu's camp.

What these soldiers carried was either ladders or logs, and they skillfully put the logs together.

The people on the city wall gradually understood that these soldiers wanted to set up a high shelf in front of the battle?

Xiahou Dun was puzzled and didn't understand why he put up this airs.

Cheng Yu was also puzzled, and asked suspiciously, "General Xiahou, what are they doing, what's the use of this airs?"

Xiahou Dun frowned and said, "If we set up a stand nearby, we can arrange archers to suppress the soldiers on the city wall, but what's the use of being so far away?"

Xue Ti sneered, "Look, what they built is a high platform. Maybe Lu Bu wants to climb onto the high platform and command the battle?"

The wood is all special wood with joints at both ends. The soldiers carried it over and assembled each other. Soon, the high platform was stacked layer by layer.

Seeing that the height was getting higher and higher, Xiahou Dun frowned and said, "The height of the high platform is probably higher than the city wall now. What exactly are they trying to do?"

Cheng Yu pointed to the wall, "Look, they seem to have stopped."

Sure enough, the high platform of Lu Bu's army had been built, and most of the soldiers had already descended from the high platform, leaving only four people standing on the high platform.

Just when Cheng Yu and the others were puzzled, they saw the multifunctional siege vehicle drive to the side of the high platform, and the ladders on it began to stack up slowly, and finally the height exceeded the high platform, forming a triangle above it.

Then, the rope pulled something from the roof of the car and began to rise slowly.

At first, Cheng Yu hadn't figured out what was going on, but when he saw what was pulled up, he was startled and his face became ugly.

"General Xiahou, it's too bad, what they pulled up was that kind of powerful crossbow bolt."

Thinking of the power of the crossbow, Xiahou Dun's face gradually turned pale, and he said in surprise, "Could it be that they want to shoot the crossbow on the high platform?"

Cheng Yu raised his heart suddenly, panic appeared in his eyes.

He was an extremely intelligent person, and when he saw the opponent's crossbow arrows being pulled onto the high platform, he thought of the dire consequences.

If the crossbow is fired from such a high position, everyone on the city wall will be in danger.

Standing on the high platform with his head held high, Wang Lu became the object of all attention, with a proud and excited expression on his face.

At the same time, an unprecedented pressure also rose from the bottom of my heart.

He remembered what Lu Bu had said to him before leaving.

Whether he can successfully break through the city depends on his arrow skills.

Wang Lu squeezed his slightly trembling hands, and kept cheering himself up in his heart.

"Wang Lu, if you can do it, you will definitely do it!"

The bed crossbow was raised little by little, and finally, it was successfully placed on the high platform.

Wei Yue jumped out of the multifunctional siege vehicle and shouted at Wang Lu on the high platform.

"Wang Lu, give me a good shot. If you can't shoot, don't come down. If you shoot, this general will treat you to a drink."

Wang Lu's face turned red with excitement and he nodded vigorously, "General, don't worry, my subordinates will do their best."

Wei Yue yelled, "I'm not trying my best, but I must shoot, otherwise I will go up and kick you down."

Wei Yue's joke made Wang Lu feel a little more relaxed.

"Wind!"

Two soldiers stepped forward and began to shake the noose, and after a while, the thick bowstring was drawn.

"Fire crossbow arrows."

When everything was ready, Wang Lu stood behind the bed crossbow and started aiming in the direction of the city wall.

At this time, the people standing on the city wall saw this scene, almost subconsciously, they all squatted down and hid behind the battlements.
