Even if there is a battle, the tens of thousands of people under the city wall will really fight, but Liu Ke is not only thinking about those involved in the battle.

In his plan, in addition to attacking, the soldiers and horses under his command also acted as a psychological deterrent.

When soldiers all over the sky surrounded the lonely city of Lexiang, the enemy's will to fight would be severely hit.

Even if they had made sufficient preparations at the beginning, when they saw the boundless enemy army and the city they had been defending turned into a drop in the vast ocean, they would collapse instantly.

"Your Majesty, according to your arrangement, all the armies are in place, please issue an attack command!"

Liu Ke stood on a high place, and after looking around with his eyes, he finally picked up the dragon flag in his hand and waved it downward.

After receiving Liu Ke's order, there was a deafening sound of drums and horns all around, and the soldiers immediately shouted after hearing the sound.

The sound was so loud that it shook the entire city wall, causing dust to fall from it.

The soldiers on the city felt the tremor of the city wall when the enemy attacked, their faces were pale, and the hands holding the weapons were shaking involuntarily.

Finally, when the defenders were shaken, Liu Ke's army approached the city wall step by step, and was about to come within the range of bows and arrows.

Seeing this, Wei Yan immediately shouted: "Archers, take aim!"

It was only at this moment that those archers finally woke up like a dream, bending their bows and setting arrows in a hurry.

But because of being too nervous, some people tried three or four times before they were ready.

At this time, Liu Ke's army had already held the bow and arrow in their hands, ready to shoot at any time.

Almost at the same time, the generals of the attacking and defending sides burst out at the same time: "Fire the arrow!"

However, the arrows shot from the city wall were sparse, and some even wobbled and fell to the ground halfway.

Those archers were shaken, how could they show their original strength?

On the contrary, Liu Ke's army, holding a strong bow and crossbow, followed the order and released the arrows instantly.

Suddenly, countless arrows were seen flying towards the top of the city like a dark cloud.

After a short period of silence, there was an instant screaming and wailing from the top of the city.

However, this is not over yet, the first round of arrow rain has just arrived, but the second round is already brewing.

Chapter 880 and five guard the city

In the era of cold weapons, archers can be said to be the most common long-range attack unit, and it is also the unit that all forces value most.

A qualified archer is no less valuable than a cavalryman.

Among the several factors that affect archers the most, apart from scientific and systematic training, is the quality of bows and arrows.

Especially the bow, its quality will directly affect the strength of the archer.

Regardless of whether it is Liu Bei, Sun Quan, or even Cao Cao's army, all the bows used in this period are the most common.

But Liu Ke's army is different. All they use are compound bows improved by Liu Ke.

Not only the shooting range and accuracy are far superior, but also the physical strength consumed is far less than that of bows and arrows at that time.

Therefore, after Liu Ke's army fired five rounds in a row, the enemy army could barely fire three rounds, but the damage caused by tension was minimal.

It was because of the difference in these conditions that under the cover of Liu Ke's archer troops, the army finally came to the city.

Among them, Zhang Liao ran the fastest.

He had a bad start in the fight with Liu Beijun before, and he was forced by the opponent to trouble His Majesty to do it.

So this time, I had already held back a bad breath in my heart.

So when Liu Ke arranged to attack Le Township, he took the initiative to ask Ying to attack the East Gate, which bears the brunt.

Because in his mind, this place must also be the most heavily guarded position by the enemy.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Liao came to the city, he saw Chen Dalai who was directing the defense loudly.

He immediately shouted unceremoniously: "Soldiers, we were the barracks that was attacked by the other side at night before.

For forcing us into such an embarrassment, this tone must not just be left alone!The opportunity for the soldiers to take revenge has come today, and the general will rush to the city to wipe out the defenders! "

Under Zhang Liao's instigation, the morale of the army was instantly boosted, and they shouted and launched a final charge towards the city.

Chen Dao heard the shouts from the city, looked down, and met Zhang Liao's gaze.

The two old enemies hadn't really fought each other, but fierce sparks erupted in the air.

Chen Dao had fought Zhang Liao several times, and of course he was aware of the opponent's strength, so he immediately rushed to the position Zhang Liao was attacking from the side.

At the same time, Zhang Liao had already led the soldiers to climb up the city wall.

"Hold it quickly! Drive the enemy to the city!" The guard in charge of guarding this small area shouted, waving his sword.

However, just when the soldier was about to stretch out his body to retreat the opponent's climbing ladder, his body suddenly shook, and he fell head-heavy and fell down the city.

It turns out that Zhang Liao's siege army is not an ordinary one.

Not only are they brave and good at fighting, they are the most elite group of troops under Zhang Liao, and each of them has a crossbow.

This kind of hand crossbow is small and light, and easy to string. Although the range is only a dozen steps, it can cause great damage within the range.

It is the right time to use it in the hands of the siege troops. As long as the defenders lean out, they will be greeted by Zhang Liao's hand crossbow immediately.Those who were hit by the arrow fell to the city and died without exception.
