Uncle, please help the Han family

Including Liu Yu, who also lowered his head, resting his chin with his hands, and was so serious that he didn't say a word.

This is an unexpected event.

No one could have imagined that this arrow directly killed [-] Allied soldiers.

Originally, they were almost at the gate of the city, but when the arrow came down, the soldiers couldn't stop retreating as if they had seen a ghost.

Don't say that the retreater will be cut.

Even the princes, generals, and even the warlord have run away, how can ordinary soldiers not be afraid?

The result of this battle was that the allied forces beheaded [-] people and captured Hua Xiong, but the price was that they lost nearly [-] soldiers.

If the battle loss is still the same in the future, then the coalition forces of the princes will definitely not be able to conquer Sishui Pass.

"My lord, Dong Jun's magic arrow has been found, but it was broken into three pieces!"

During the noisy quarrel in the big tent, a soldier came in from outside the big tent, holding a box, and three broken arrows were placed in the box.

"bring here."

After Liu Yu gave the order indifferently, the soldiers quickly brought up the magic arrow.

This is the second arrow they captured.

In terms of craftsmanship, the two arrows are the same, made of pure divine stone.

However, it can be seen that it is not as simple as casting a stone into the shape of an arrow, but a precision weapon made after countless times of beating.

Since this is the case, what is certain is that it is impossible for Dong Jun to make arrows while fighting.

At least not in Sishui Pass.

But the unsettling factor is - you never know, whether it will be the last one or not.

It was terrible. Liu Yu, who watched all this from the rear, had to admit that this was the nuclear weapon of this period.

With 5000 people, even if they are crowded and all stand together, there will be at least 1 square meters.

Such a large area was blown into ruins in an instant!

I don't have that feeling when I get shot six miles away.

Liu Yu had to admit that he was too optimistic before.

Even if the average quality of some troops is not inferior to that of the Xiliang Army, their strength is several times that of Dong Zhuo's, but in terms of the "storage" of artifacts, they are far inferior.

Incidentally, not all artifacts are at the same level.

Because of the purity of the original stone and the level of the foundry, even in the Orange Weapon, there is a huge class similar to a pyramid.

And this bow, like the 'Fang Tian Hua Ji', belongs to the level of Zhen Guo Shen Bing.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best bow in the world.

"...it actually broke."

Looking at the arrow, Liu Yu smiled faintly.

The sacred stone is different from ordinary metals. If it is broken or broken due to battle damage, its divinity will be greatly lost and it will become a battle-damaged state.

Indeed, it can still be used, just re-smelting it, but it can't make any good weapons.

Just like Sun Jian's beheading sword, if it is broken, it is equivalent to being scrapped.

"...My lord." Seeing that Liu Yu was in a low mood, Gongsun Zan wanted to go forward to comfort him, but considering that this was not Youzhou and many important figures were present, he could only stop talking and wait for him to recover.

However, to her surprise, Liu Yu suddenly raised his head and said seriously, "There is a problem."

"Problem?" Yuan Shu didn't know where Liu Yu was making trouble, so he asked rather puzzled, "What problem is the leader referring to?"

"That's the problem." Liu Yu clenched his fists and said very seriously, "In the early morning, Dong Zhuo shot an arrow at our tower, but was intercepted. But why didn't she try the second arrow?"

"Isn't this easy to understand?" Yuan Shu didn't think there was anything difficult to answer, so he said casually, "I think I can't hit, so I don't want to waste it."

"Then just now, after General Sun Jian defeated Hua Xiong and suddenly launched an attack, why didn't Dong Zhuo immediately shoot arrows to persuade us to retreat, but waited until we were about to attack Sishui Pass before releasing arrows?"

"This..." Yuan Shu was stopped by the question, he hesitated, "I don't want to waste this..."

"You know, when she asked Lu Bu to shoot us, the situation was already very critical." Liu Yu continued, "Besides, the soldiers from both sides were fighting together, and we are not the only ones who died under Lu Bu's arrows. Is it necessary to save for this kind of sake?"

Liu Yu's question made all the princes fall into thinking.

That's right, if you shoot the arrow early, you won't be in trouble, and you won't hurt your own people.

Is it possible...

"Dong Zhuo's arrows are very limited." At this point, Gongsun Zan suddenly interjected, "It's very likely that there are only two, or three, and there shouldn't be more, otherwise I wouldn't be so cautious."

"That's right. As long as there are a few more, it won't be enough to save money."

"Makes sense, makes sense."

"But could it be to lure us into it on purpose, and then..."

"It shouldn't be possible."

Seeing that someone wanted to make a reasonable guess that disturbed morale, Cao Cao stepped forward and said seriously: "Actually, when I was a captain of Xiaoqi in Luoyang, I heard that there was such a bow called Shenluo Bow, which was made by a big man. The strongest bow. But this bow will basically not be used in actual combat, because it only has three arrows, and because its craftsmanship has been lost, it is impossible to make arrows again."

It was just speculation just now, so everyone was more or less skeptical, but after Cao Cao appeared to speak out, everyone suddenly became enlightened, and the haze on their faces was swept away.

"So it's called Shenluo Bow!"

"There are only three, so what are you afraid of?!"

"As long as Dong Thief's third arrow is forced out, she's still a fart!"

"That's right, she's nothing without the magic arrow!"

The atmosphere in the tent gradually became active, and the stagnation just now was dispelled by the good news brought by Cao Cao.

"Everyone." Seeing this, Liu Yu said, "I'm tired from the battle today, so go back to the account and rest early, don't be too nervous. After all, the opponent has lost the general Hua Xiong, and he must not dare to take it lightly after suffering such a big defeat." move."

"Leader farewell, everyone farewell."

After the princes calmed down, they stopped arguing, greeted each other and prepared to retreat.

"Well, gentlemen, rest well."

Liu Yu smiled and watched the princes leave.

However, the face that tried to put on a calm and composed face collapsed immediately after everyone was gone.

"My lord, why is this?" Seeing Liu Yu's expression, Yuan Shao asked rather puzzled, "Isn't there only one arrow left in the Shenluo bow? We don't need to be afraid."

Liu Yu couldn't help but squeeze out a wry smile from Miss Benchu's serious concern.

So, raising his eyebrows, he motioned Yuan Shao to look at his childhood sweetheart.

"Ah?" Following Liu Yu's instructions, Yuan Shao looked at Cao Cao puzzled, "Meng De, what do you mean?"

"Oh." Cao Cao didn't answer directly, but sat slowly on his seat, the corners of his mouth twitched stiffly, "Shenluo Bow, I made it up."

"?" On Yuan Shao's fair and pretty face, there was a question mark slowly.

He glanced at Cao Cao, the childhood sweetheart who grew up together.

Look at Liu Yu again, this handsome nobleman.

Yuan Shao, who was completely kept in the dark, wished he could roar on the spot—when did you reach a tacit understanding!

Now that you have just met, you have a tacit understanding. What will happen to the two of you after you work together in the future?

I can't even think about it!

"By the way, Bogui, were you making up just now?"

Because Yuan Shao was a little psychologically unbalanced, he looked at Gongsun Zan, trying to find resonance.

"..." His body tensed up suddenly, and then he turned his head to the side in disdain. Gongsun Zan said coldly, "Shenluo Bow, it looks like a casually made-up name."

"What! You've obviously been cheated too, haven't you?"

"No."

"There is."

"Just not."

Unknowingly, the pair of proud girls who were supposed to be enemies for life began to bicker in inexplicable places.

reality.

"It's because I don't know how many arrows there are, so I'm afraid." Returning to this topic, Liu Yu became annoyed again, "This kind of weapon that can determine the direction of the battle is too deterrent."

If the next arrow directly takes the Allied 'headquarters', then the war of the princes against Dong can be declared directly.

"But it is inevitable that the number of arrows is very small." Seeing Liu Yu so sad, Cao Cao comforted him with a smile, "Our army has not suffered a fatal blow, and today's battle was almost successful, so there is no need for the leader to be depressed. Next Once, try harder."

To be honest, Liu Yu's performance today has made Cao Cao very satisfied, especially the decisive attacking momentum, which is more like a coach.

Frustrated?

Very normal.

After all, it was Dong Zhuo who was fighting, and it was too smooth to make people wonder if it was a fraud.

"..." Being able to be understood by the princes below in this way, instead of crowding out flattery, Liu Yu felt that the pressure on himself was much less, and he couldn't help but smile at the considerate Miss Meng De, "Thank you, Mend."

"The leader doesn't need to see outsiders." Cao Cao stood up, showing that quiet smile that she seldom shows for outsiders again, clenched her fists and said, "It's getting late, I'll take my leave first."

"Meng De, walk slowly."

The corner of his mouth unconsciously evoked a warm smile, watching Cao Cao's back, Liu Yu's mood at the moment was a little strange.

A hero, a traitor who is recorded in history, was not so deep in the beginning.

At least in this crusade, she has been actively playing the role of an 'organizer'.

Same as myself, even more devoted than myself.

Cao Cao, she has great hopes for this time the princes will challenge Dong.

"Lord."

After Cao Cao left, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan suddenly approached Liu Yu and looked at him in uncommon synchronization.

"You two." Because there are only the two of them left here, Liu Yu didn't pay too much attention, and asked directly, "Do you have any other ideas?"

When asked about this, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan glanced at each other, and finally Gongsun Zan said, "The deaths of our troops today were all caused by the arrows fired by the defenders on Sishuiguan City."

"Indeed, Dong Jun under the city has already lost his position. He can only focus on defense, and there is no chance to counterattack at all."

After replaying the battle at that time, one can actually come to a very clear conclusion-what is the real difficulty of defeating Dong.

That is the grand pass of 'Boshui Pass'.

In ancient times, the strength of the attacking party was generally more than three times that of the defending city. As long as it was lower than this ratio, the difficulty would become more and more difficult and the possibility would become lower and lower.

At this time, the ratio of the strength of the two armies is about 2.5:1, which is quite sufficient within the normal range.

But if the uncertain factor of "Allied Forces" is considered, the winning rate will be lowered a lot.

"Oh yes, then what are your thoughts?" Suddenly regaining consciousness, Liu Yu asked.

Having said that, the two looked at each other again.

Then, it was Gongsun Zan who said: "Although we shoot low and shoot high under the city, the bow of Baima Yicong and the strength of the archers can completely make up for this disadvantage."

"You mean..." Liu Yu paused, looked at the two of them, and then said after a while, "Fire arrows at Sishuiguan?"

The protagonist is not an unresponsive person.

On the contrary, as the only person who saw through Cao Cao's lies, his wisdom is much higher than the two of us.

So Gongsun Zan knew that the other party already understood what he meant.

The reason why this kind of questioning is deliberately made is to test.

Find out their real purpose.

But this...

It cannot withstand temptation.

"My lord, think twice." Because he joined the camp late, and had not been formally accepted as a position, Yuan Shao could only help, "Don't give up because of choking. Our goal in this battle is to win."

Liu Yu also knew that the purpose of this battle was to win.
