Chapter 582 The decisive battle begins
"Your Majesty, it's not the end of your life..." Tian Feng came forward, "The old minister was also worried that such a mistake would occur, so he took his own initiative and prepared the beacon tower.
Just need to ignite the soldiers of the surrounding counties will know the situation here and then send people to rescue them. Perhaps, we can work together inside and outside and fight to the death with the Han army!"
"Really?" Yuan Shao was stunned, a little disbelief.
"I am making a decision, so I would like to forgive you." Tian Feng did not show any excitement, but just accused him again.
"Haha, the Tian Qing family is indeed a mature country!" Yuan Shao was overjoyed, "Hurry up, light the beacon tower! Tell the soldiers that reinforcements will arrive soon, let them defend the city well and wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and we will fight out together!"
The reason for defending is that reinforcements will come. If there are no reinforcements, they will really die. Therefore, if there are no reinforcements, then Yuan Shao can consider three points: either open the city and surrender, close the city and defend it, or break out.
Among the three, only the last one may give him a glimmer of hope. As long as the person is still there, there is naturally a possibility of making a comeback. If the person is not there and there is only a huge land, it will be useless.
Tian Feng was also a little relieved. Yuan Shao asked to continue as planned, but he had to take measures to deal with emergencies. At that time, no one could convince anyone, so Ju Su suggested that it could be carried out secretly.
Anyway, it is just a beacon tower and does not consume much material.
However, it was an act of usurpation, so Tian Feng took the initiative to take responsibility. After all, he was old and was not afraid of anything. Ju Su, who was standing beside him, also knew this, so he just kept silent.
The materials of the beacon tower are already prepared, they just need to be erected and ignited. So while Liu Tao was waiting, the other party had already ignited the beacon tower.
"It seems they are planning to fight to the death?" Liu Tao said disdainfully, "Siege the city!"
The waiting period is not because of humanitarianism, and it is necessary to wait for the other party to reply. Instead, it is used to assemble the siege equipment.
This time he won't be stupid. If he can destroy the other party as soon as possible, he will never procrastinate.
The only thing I didn't expect was that wolf smoke actually rose in the other party's city. He used the Fenglong Insight Scroll as soon as possible, just to get the greatest vision.
With a radius of hundreds of miles, this naturally included several surrounding counties. He deliberately narrowed the view of a city and found that the soldiers above found wolf smoke in the distance, and then immediately went to report.
On his side, Huang Zhong had already begun to lead his army to attack the city. In the surrounding county towns, a large number of soldiers suddenly appeared in the houses, and then began to gather quickly and come to this side.
The entire Changshan County is a big spider web, and the core is the Yuan family. However, the surrounding counties have Yuan Shao's army, which can be dispatched separately or supported and cooperated with each other. There are camps between the cities about ten miles to serve as a transit for wolf smoke, and at the same time, it also makes the outlets more dense.
In theory, it is not easy to move forward without them being aware of such a large outlet. After all, there are 30,000 soldiers on their side, not to mention about 50,000 civilians.
At that time, Liu Tao's headquarters had 30,000 combat soldiers and 50,000 baggage teams all the way. Although he used the lucky technique, in order to avoid alarming the snake, he chose to lie out at night and accelerate his journey.
Without this, it would be abnormal to be able to arrive in Yuanshi County smoothly at such outlets during the day.
The size of 80,000 people can pass the test smoothly. It is conceivable that there must be some unrest in the camps passing by, such as civil strife, food poisoning for all employees, and even sudden deaths... So why didn’t you march during the day?
"How much time do we have to attack the city?" Liu Tao asked casually. Even though the ladder car has begun to be loaded on the city wall, the soldiers have already attached 'pray', 'stone skin', 'heaven armor' and 'burning will'.
"Until we capture this city." Huang Zhong replied, then bent his bow and shot an arrow on the city wall.
With the blessing of prayer, he could directly drive a three-stone bow, shoot an arrow about one hundred meters below the city wall, and rely on the effect of the unicorn horn bow to easily shoot the enemy on the city wall.
The siege was mainly handed over to Cheng Lian and Cao Hong, who led the sword, shield and heavy hammer respectively. The former is an ordinary sequence, while the latter is an attack special sequence, which is mainly aimed at this situation where spells have been blessed.
Each soldier holds a 40-pound sledgehammer, and cooperates with the bonus of treasures and spells. If he goes on, any shield weapon will be destroyed. It has a very significant effect when dealing with the city walls, the city gates and the large shields.
But under normal circumstances, if the soldiers who had to run around with a forty kilogram of hammers were definitely elite. Therefore, there were only two thousand such soldiers in each division of the Han Dynasty, and they were used in the General Office of Si'an.
However, Zhang He, who is currently under Ma Teng, has a large elliptical soldier of about 3,000 people, specializing in the cavalry. Both light cavalry and heavy cavalry can be dealt with, and it also has a very good effect against ordinary light infantry.
On the ground, there were Jinyiwei, the cavalry of Wen Chou and Pang De’s troops, as well as Huang Zhong’s headquarters’ personal guard camp, and the Shiri camp.
The personal guard camp is just a name, but the shooting camp is outside the trap camp. The second team to win the title was obtained just because of their good shooting.
There are 1,000 people in the entire army, and it is better to have nothing than to be too bad. Each soldier can drive two stone bows. But each person will be equipped with a three stone bow. Even if they do not use spells, they can pull and complete a shooting with all their strength.
The precise arrow of the Three Stone Bow is really terrifying in this era. It is no problem to shoot through two or three enemy troops within fifty meters.
At the same time, they will be equipped with a stone bow, a five-handed halberd and a dagger. It can be said that the team exists entirely for shooting.
Generally speaking, in order to pay attention to the efficiency of shooting, they will use a stone bow and constantly bend the bow and shoot arrows. Now they use two stone bows. Under the premise of increasing their strength, they use two stone bows completely as one stone bow.
Yuan Shao's defenders obviously did not prepare a large shield, or it was useless to prepare. The sledgehammer soldiers were preparing for this time. With one hammer, the shield was directly scrapped, and the soldiers holding the shield behind them were probably destroyed with both hands.
The moment the gap appeared, the Shoribato immediately launched a shooting to maximize the harvest of the defenders on the city wall...
The car rushing to the city wall began to hit the city wall. As expected, Yuan Shao had no chance at all and blocked the city gate.
If you continue like this, it will take about ten minutes to destroy the city.
However, at this time, there were enough reinforcements around to come and support. The question is, what can this be done? Tens of thousands of cavalry, including the Hun soldiers, are waiting for them to come and die! Or in other words, I am afraid that they will not come!
