Chapter 1853 The strong have their own strong hands

Zhuge Liang did not refuse. On the contrary, he was eager to compete with Sima Yichang. In the battle of Xincheng, Sima Yichang was the one who attacked the city the most fiercely. Zhuge Liang was not afraid of him at all. He defended the new city and repelled Sima Yichang's more than a dozen attacks in a row.

But in the end, Zhuge Liang received the order to retreat, and he had to give up the new city, which made Sima Yi really proud.

Now that he is fighting Shouchun again, Zhuge Liang naturally holds his breath in his heart. No matter what the reason, Xincheng is finally lost. Zhuge Liang and Sima Yichang lost a while in the battle of Shouchun. In this battle of Shouchun, Zhuge Liang is eager to compete with Sima Yichang again and vows to compete with him.

Facing the Sima Jun who was rushing towards him, Zhuge Liang was very calm. His understanding of Shouchun City was even far more than that of the new city. Even every part of the city wall, Zhuge Liang knew everything about him. He was clearer in his sect where he was strong, weak, and where he needed heavy defense. Therefore, in terms of scheduling defensive forces, Zhuge Liang was the most able to send them to the most suitable place.

The Sima Army's offensive was extremely fierce. They climbed the ladder with their shields and rushed forward fearlessly. Even though the people in front kept falling down, the one behind them continued to launch a strong attack.

Sima Yichang still has certain ability in siege. He knew that abstinence of attacking would only be a waste of his troops. When launching ant to attack the city, he had to cover the siege army and suppress the defenders on the city, so that he had the chance to attack.

Otherwise, the defenders on the city would unscrupulously shoot arrows and throw stones. No matter how many troops the siege teams invested, it would be difficult to break through the defense line.

Sima Yiqiong mobilized a large number of archers and deployed them on the periphery of the moat, gathered together and fired volleys towards the city. As long as the Wei army dared to show their heads on the city, they would inevitably be shot by Sima army.

For a moment, a large number of arrows poured towards the city. The Wei army was suppressed so that they could hardly raise their heads. They could only hide behind the battlements to avoid the rain of arrows.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sima Jun rushed up the ladder, and the entire city wall was almost densely filled with Sima Bing's figures. This way of siege was called Yifu, which was indeed worthy of its name. Sima Jun wriggled forward in black, and from a distance, it looked like an ant climbing the wall.

Due to the cover of a large number of arrows behind, the Sima army occupied almost the entire wall, and the Wei army's counterattack power was greatly suppressed. Seeing that the Sima army was getting closer and closer to the city, the Wei army could not use effective counterattack methods. Once the Sima army attacked the city, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But Zhuge Liang still seemed calm. Sima's army mobilized a large number of archers, which really suppressed the defenders' actions, making them unable to calmly poke their heads out to shoot arrows or throw stones. However, Zhuge Liang was not very panicked because he knew very well that Sima's army's arrows could only provide cover when the siege team first began to siege the city. Once they approached the city, the arrows had to stop, otherwise, they would easily cause accidental injury to their own people.

After all, so many archers shoot arrows together, their shooting skills are of high and low, and they are of varying quality. Although their target is to point to the city head and try to shoot at the city head as high as possible, if the shooting is too high, the arrows will fly directly over the head of the defenders and will not play any role.

But if you shoot too low, you can easily hurt your own people by mistake. During the attack just now, many Sima soldiers were injured by arrows shot by their own people. If they all approached the top of the city, they would be afraid that more people would be shot by their own bows and arrows.

So when he reached two-thirds of the city wall, Sima Yichang ordered the stop of archery. The last piece of the city wall required the siege troops to complete it themselves.

When Zhuge Liang saw that Sima Jun's arrows stopped, he immediately ordered the defenders to pounce on the top of the city. The first wave of counterattacks used rolling wood. Among all the city defense weapons, the lethality was the strongest. When the rolling wood fell down, the sound of ghosts and wolves howling under the city was almost swept across the city, and the crazy offensive momentum immediately became slow.

Immediately afterwards, bows, rocks, boiling oil, boiling water, all the weapons they could use were poured out, making Sima Jun dizzy.

Originally, the Sima Army was already in sight of victory, but the last few feet of distance made them sigh. Faced with such a storm and storm, no matter how tenacious the fighting spirit was, they could not persevere. The Sima Army's method of covering the attack this time was declared defeat.

Generally speaking, once the siege troops approach the city, the defenders will almost lose sight of each other. Once they are broken through, the entire city defense may collapse.

But Zhuge Liang was confident. He participated in the battle of defending the city many times and had extremely rich combat experience in defending the city. Once the enemy under the city used bows and arrows to carry out suppressive attacks on the city, Zhuge Liang would not resist it, but ordered the defenders to hide in bunkers. The large number of arrows shot by the Sima army would not cause a large number of casualties to the defenders, but instead added a lot of arrows to the defenders.

And his hiding is not a passive evasion, but a large number of defensive weapons are fully prepared. As soon as the enemy's arrows stop, they will pounce on them without hesitation and throw out the defensive weapons in their hands.

Even Zhuge Liang was ready to fight hand-to-hand combat. Even if the enemy really attacked the city, they would still kill them and would never allow them to gain a foothold on the city.

Sima Yiqiang looked at the defeat, his face turned pale. This plan was carefully designed, but unexpectedly he encountered setbacks. He was really strong and had his own strength. Sima Yiqiang knew that the opponent he had encountered was extraordinary. In such an emergency, he could still respond calmly. I believe this person had extremely rich experience in defending the city. It was not easy for him to win Shouchun.

When the Sima Army retreated, Zhuge Liang still refused to forget to fight back. He ordered the archers to attack the Sima Army's archers outside the moat to retaliately attack.

At this time, without the pressure to defend the city, the Wei army's archers could use their archery skills to their fullest. On the one hand, the Wei army was condescending and had the advantage of geographical advantages. On the other hand, with the cover of the city walls, their position was naturally stronger than that of the Sima army, which was unobstructed in open areas. In this round of shooting, the Wei army had a clear advantage. After the Sima army's archers threw countless bodies, they could only evacuate with the siege troops in a mess.
