I am the system

"Ready to attack!~"

"Ready to attack!~"

"Ready to attack!~"

At dusk, the 11 Ma family army that besieged Zhenyuan City shouted loudly as the cavalry ran.

Hearing the shouts of the cavalry and the officer, the soldiers who were sitting on the ground and resting began to get up one after another, standing in a neat line, waiting for new orders.

"Here's an order to feint to attack the east and west gates first, and focus on the south gate."

On the hillside, Ma Teng watched Zhenyuan City from a distance, and gave orders to the soldiers under his opponent.

"Leader!"

Hearing this, several generals clasped their fists immediately to receive orders, and hurried out of the tent.

"Boom boom boom...!"

With the sound of war drums in the Ma's army's formation, the soldiers who besieged Zhenyuan City in the east, west, south, and south directions began to move.Among the Ma's troops under the three city walls in the east, west, and south, five thousand soldiers began to approach the city walls.

In the twilight light, a large number of sword men held their shields high, maintained a phalanx formation and began to approach the city wall. Among them were soldiers carrying ladders and bumpers, or holding crossbows.

Behind the army formation, at a distance of 500 meters from the city wall, the soldiers have already pushed more than ten catapults to the front and are preparing intensively.

"Boom boom boom!"

The next moment, at the top of Rida Mountain, night is about to fall.

"cast!"

Following the order, more than a dozen catapults that had been prepared began to show their power, projecting scattered stones, and the stones the size of a bowl were shot towards the east, west, and south walls of Zhenyuan City like heavenly maidens scattered flowers.

On the east wall of Zhenyuan City, soldiers stood densely, looking at the approaching enemies below, ready to fight.

"Royal!"

As the enemy began to throw stones, the soldiers also raised the door wooden shields under the shouts of the veterans, or hid behind the battlements to prevent being hit by the rocks.

"The siege started so soon!"

At the gate tower of the west city gate, the leading general Zhang Bei frowned and looked at the Ma family army approaching the city wall holding up their shields.

Large-scale siege equipment is heavy and difficult to transport, and is usually allocated from nearby cities and local materials. Ma’s army marched here from Xiliang Prefecture within eight days, which shows that Ma’s army does not have many heavy siege equipment at all. The catapult is probably all there is.

In this case, if the defenders at the top of the city cannot be suppressed, it will undoubtedly be much more difficult for the Ma family army to attack the city, and the price they have to pay will also be high.

It is impossible for Ma Teng not to know, but he still asked the soldiers to attack the city now, which is puzzling.

"What the hell is he doing with so many! We have the celestial artifact bestowed by the governor, they can't break the city. Waiting for the governor to lead the army to help, is the end of his Ma Teng!"

Seeing Zhang Bei frowning and thinking, the lieutenant next to him sneered, he had full confidence in the immortal weapon.

"Don't worry, the fairy weapon shells are limited, let's see what Ma Teng is going to do first!"

Zhang Bei shook his head and said, although there are six mortars bestowed by Lu Bu, the shells are limited after all, only 180 shells, so they must be used sparingly and wisely.

"Boom boom boom~~~!"

As the catapults began to throw stones, the drums of the Ma's army also began to beat rapidly.

With the rapid sound of war drums, the Ma's army, which was approaching the city wall, began to speed up.When the distance reached 50 meters, the crossbowmen under the shield began to shoot arrows at the top of the city, further suppressing the defense on the city wall.

"Fire arrows!"

"cast!"

Looking at the Ma family army who had already entered the range of the bow and arrow, the top of the city also began to shoot arrows down the city with a loud shout, no need to aim, just shoot at an approximate distance and direction.The only catapult in the city also began to throw rocks.

For a while, the arrows from both sides exchanged with each other, and arrows continued to shoot through the gaps in the shields. The soldiers on both sides began to suffer injuries, and the wailing sound began to resound in the upper and lower walls of the city.

"kill!"

Against the rain of arrows, under the cover of catapults and crossbowmen, the soldiers of Ma's army quickly approached to a distance of ten meters below the city wall.

Amidst the sound of killing, the soldiers of the Ma family army gathered at the foot of the city wall holding their shields, and a series of six-meter-long ladders began to build up the city wall and fixed it.The simple swordsmen of Ma Jiajun held up their shields and began to ascend the city.

A large number of soldiers also rushed to the gate of the city holding their shields and bumping logs, and began to ram the door.

At this time, the defenders on the city wall could no longer hide. Under the orders of the officers, some of them began to push the ladder with cross-bars under the orders of the officers. very difficult.

In addition, there were soldiers who raised the stones that had been prepared and threw them at the soldiers who raised their shields and climbed the city under the city wall.Stones weighing tens of kilograms fell from the six-meter-high city wall, killing and injuring many soldiers attacking the city below.

Their shields could stop arrows, but they couldn't stop such a heavy stone from falling.

But as the soldiers on the city wall showed their heads to defend, they were also exposed to the flying arrows and rocks. Many people fell from the arrows, and the unfortunate ones even fell from the city wall.

Casualties on both sides also began to become greater.

At this time, the sun had already set halfway down the mountain, and the sky began to gradually darken.

"So it turns out that Ma Teng wants to take advantage of the night to attack the city! He is indeed a prince who has enjoyed a long reputation."

Looking at the half-set sun, Zhang Bei frowned and said with a sneer.

The night and darkness are undoubtedly a kind of cover for the siege side. In the case of poor sight, it is easier for the siege army to approach the city wall.In particular, their army guarding the city has only [-] veterans, and the remaining [-] are recruits who have not experienced fighting on the battlefield and have not received much training.

After a long attack, I am afraid that there is a danger of breaking the city.

But so what, they have immortal artifacts.

"Come here, send an order, use the fairy weapon, and blow up the enemy's catapults and war drums!"

Zhang Bei issued an order.Since Ma Teng planned to attack the city at night, he could also take a drastic step by blowing up Ma Teng's few catapults and the drums used by Ma Teng to command the army.

"Yes!" Following the order, a general immediately took the order, and then left in a hurry.

At the gate tower of the city wall, forty or fifty soldiers rushed out. They held up shields and door panels, covering the mortar soldiers to set up mortars and adjust their shooting positions.

"Play continuously!"

With an order, there was a sound of cannons on the upper floor of the city gate.

"Boom!"

A few seconds later, there was a rumbling explosion, and outside the west city wall, the three catapults that were projecting were instantly blown to pieces.

The buzzing war drum array was swallowed by continuous explosions.

For a while, the sound of war drums disappeared, and the rocks thrown from the sky also stopped.

With the disappearance of the sound of explosions and war drums, the momentum of the Ma's army's attack under the west city wall suddenly stagnated.The sudden explosion and the disappearance of the commander's war drums made them a little at a loss.

"Is this the fairy weapon that killed my brother?"

500 meters away from the west city wall, Matthew looked at the catapults that were blown up in front of the formation and the drum formation that was blown upside down in the distance, and heard the wailing of the soldiers, and frowned immediately.

"Young Governor, please move back!"

A general said to Matthew.

"Well! Let the cavalry pass the military order! Continue to attack the city! Order, invest another 5000 people to join the attack!"

Hearing this, Matthew said, and rode his horse back to the rear of the army formation.

Lu Bujun's fairy weapon is too powerful, so he has to guard against it.
