Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 760

Facing Zhu Weijun's siege, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not dare to charge out with their troops.

Zhu Weijun's bow and arrow array and crossbow arrow array are too terrifying. No matter how brave they are, they are still flesh and blood after all, and it is impossible to do anything against the sky, so the two of them just stood on the gate tower with Liu Bei, ready In response to Zhu Weijun's siege.

But when they saw Zhu Weijun's siege posture, they couldn't help looking at each other helplessly. Can they really withstand such a siege for two days?

"Boom boom... boom boom..."

With the sound of war drums, Zhu Weijun's siege officially began. The soldiers in front of them under the protection of cave carts approached the antlers and horse barriers. These obstacles can be pulled away by a lot, thus clearing the way for the subsequent army's attack.

"Go! Kill!"

Then a sword shield tiger cart protected Zhu Weijun's sword shield hand carrying the siege ladder behind him, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the city wall of Tu Qiuju.

Soon the saber wall and tiger carts protected in front stood like a wall of walls one arrow away from the city wall, and then mobile arrow towers were also erected here.

The archers climbed to the arrow tower, and through the arrow holes of the wooden piles on the arrow tower, they began to shoot feather arrows at Liu Beijun on the city wall.

Then teams of saber and shield fighters rushed forward again with a series of siege ladders from the portal left by the saber wall and tiger chariot. With the help of the archers' suppression of Liu Bei's army on the city wall, they rushed to the city wall in a short time Down.

So ladder after ladder was set up against the city wall, and many brave soldiers climbed up and charged with a ring-headed knife in their mouths and a one-handed shield in their left hand.

It's just that Liu Beijun on the city wall launched a defensive counterattack one after another. On the one hand, swords and shields came up to help the archers block the feather arrows, and on the other hand, the archers shot down the feather arrows.

In addition, some sword and shield hands went to the city wall and threw rolling logs and stones down, and there were also throwing and dumping the prepared fire oil tanks, boiling water, etc. outside.

Many of Liu Bei's soldiers even held spears in their hands, stabbing against the Zhu Weijun who had climbed up, preventing Zhu Weijun's soldiers from jumping up the city wall, and all kinds of methods of defending the city were displayed one after another.

In front of the walls of Tuqiuju Xiaotucheng, which is not very tall and thick, life is as fragile as thin paper.

At any time, soldiers of Liu Bei's army on the city wall were shot to death by feather arrows and crossbow arrows, but more soldiers of Zhu Weijun were smashed to death, burned to death, stabbed to death, and hacked to death.

But the city wall of Tuqiuju was not very high after all, so under the pressure of the archers and crossbowmen throwing feather arrows and crossbow arrows on the city wall, many soldiers of Zhu Weijun soon climbed the city wall and scattered the city wall. Liu Bei's soldiers on the ground seized control of the city wall little by little.

"Boom... boom..."

Accompanied by the sound of several explosions, hundreds of Zhu Weijun had already established a firm foothold on the city wall, and then used thunderbolt palm thunder to disperse the densely packed Liu Beijun in the surrounding area, preparing to further kill the city wall and seize control of the city gate.

"Wow! Let someone die!", "Follow someone!"

At this time, two generals under Liu Bei's account, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, charged towards the city wall with hundreds of soldiers each, and within a short time they reached the edge of the city wall occupied by Zhu Weijun.

The bravery of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu definitely played a key role at this time. In fact, even without the assistance of other soldiers of Liu Bei's army, just relying on the two of them is enough to make Zhu Wei's soldiers who killed the city wall powerless.

Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Knife almost swept across a piece, and it could make six or seven Zhu Weijun soldiers totter in one fell swoop, and Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear was also like a strange snake, sweeping or smashing, or stabbing or stabbing, every time. It can take the life of a Zhu Weijun soldier.

Even if the Zhu Weijun soldiers formed a shield formation and a battle formation, they were not an enemy at all in the face of them, so under the charge of the soldiers led by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the Zhu Weijun soldiers who killed the city wall followed one after another. The city wall was knocked down.

So the city wall of Tu Qiuju returned to Liu Beijun's hands, and the order of defense on the city wall was restored.

Of course, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were not completely harmless. When the two of them led troops to charge, the archers on the arrow tower outside the city wall naturally saw their obstruction to the attack, so they shot feathers at them one after another. arrow.

Even though both of them were wearing iron-leather armor and helmets, which could block many feather arrows, Guan Yu's arm seemed to be cut through by a feather arrow, and Zhang Fei also had a bullet nailed to his chest. Feather arrow, but this feather arrow didn't seem to penetrate very deep, it just swayed in front of Zhang Fei's chest.

On the battlefield, no one can be unscathed, and the general will inevitably die in battle. Sometimes a cold arrow or a random arrow may take the life of a fierce general.

Fortunately, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led troops to fight back on the city wall, and they were not afraid of being besieged by Zhu Weijun. If they were in the wild battlefield, they would be killed by Zhu Weijun's crowd tactics in the end.

Now they only suffered some minor injuries, which can be regarded as the sense of crisis cultivated by the two of them on the battlefield all the year round, so they were able to escape many murderous attempts.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not retreat after that. Under the protection of a few swordsmen and shields, they just stood in front of the city wall to supervise the formation. Once there were soldiers from Zhu Weijun charging up, they would go forward and kill them to make up for the possible damage. A hole in the wall where the defensive dams collapsed.

The offensive and defensive battle of Tu Qiuju fell into a stalemate again.

With fierce generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in charge, several generals in the Zhu Wei Army did not dare to rush forward easily, but Zhu Wei Jun was not in a hurry, and continued to let the soldiers charge, waiting for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to expend their energy, waiting for them If you are tired, you will naturally not be able to maintain your vigorous combat power.

This day's battle basically ended in the anxiety of both sides. As the sky gradually dimmed, Tai Shici took the initiative to defend and return to the camp.

In this battle, Zhu Weijun probably lost more than 2000 troops, and Liu Beijun who was stationed in Tuqiuju lost no less than 500 troops, and the battle loss was not reduced because of the defensive advantage.

This was mainly due to Zhu Weijun's archers on the mobile arrow tower and Zhu Weijun's crossbow array placed under the city wall, which caused a lot of damage to Liu Bei's defenders on the city wall.

However, Zhu Weijun still has at least nearly 3000 troops, while Liu Bei's army in Tuqiuju only has more than [-] troops left. As Liu Beijun's strength decreases, Tuqiuju's defense will naturally become weaker and weaker.

In addition, today's battle was mainly supported by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but with the end of today's battle, they were attacked several times by Zhu Weijun's archers again, and they had several more arrows. Injuries, even if they are not fatal, are still a burden to their bodies.

Therefore, after the First World War, they were also tired and exhausted, and whether they could maintain today's combat power tomorrow was a matter of course.

Liu Bei no longer had much thought of guarding Tuqiuju. Anyway, the original agreement was to guard Tu Qiuju for two days. If he could guard for one day today, it would be regarded as the completion of the task to delay the war until tomorrow. Liu Bei didn't want to lose his old background here side.

So on the second day, as Tai Shici once again led his troops to the small town of Tuqiuju, Liu Beijun's defensive resistance was indeed much weaker than yesterday's. The battle lasted for about half a day, and finally came to a result.

At about one o'clock in the afternoon, as Zhu Weijun's soldiers attacked the city wall again, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not continue to lead the counterattack. The city gate was withdrawn.

However, there were also flames burning everywhere in Tuqiuju. Obviously, Liu Bei also set fire to the city while evacuating.

For a while, many buildings in the city were engulfed in flames. As the fire spread, the entire Tuqiuju couldn't enter at all, and Zhu Weijun's soldiers could only temporarily retreat from the city.

But no matter what, the small town where Tu Qiuju was garrisoned by the coalition forces of Yuan Tan, Zang Ba, and Liu Bei was taken down by Zhu Weijun. Even if it was burned to ruins by the flames, it could be regarded as achieving Tai Shici's strategic goal... …
