Chapter 27 First Siege(1/2)

"Run!"

"Kill!"

...

Accompanied by the intense sound of siege and drumbeat, millions of people in Liu Bei's army shouted in shock.

There were a row of thousands of Pu Dao soldiers in front, divided into ten rows, each of which carried a five or six-meter-long wooden ladder, and rushed towards Zero County City under the cover of the shield.

"Everyone is here, be prepared and wait for my order!"

Standing at the top of the city, Xing Daorong held the hilt of the knife at his waist, looked coldly at Liu Bei's army and rushed over with wooden siege ladders, and ordered Anran.

Although he came from later generations, he had already integrated the memories of his predecessors.

Moreover, some time ago, I personally participated in and led a war, and I was already familiar with the ancient close combat scenes.

Therefore, even when facing thousands of Liu Bei's army coming in a fierce manner, he was not at all timid.

All brave generals can be "fareless and rushing around". Now he is a powerful general who "charges in battle, and I am invincible". How could he be scared by such a small scene?

Xing Daorong is eight feet tall, which is converted into a unit of measurement in later generations, which is nearly 1.9 meters tall.

His tall figure, combined with his black armor, and his face was solemn, making him look inviolable, like a god of war falling from the sky, giving Lingling a great courage to guard the city soldiers.

There were 4,500 soldiers guarding the city, of which 2,000 professional soldiers with force reached 5, archers and snookers each accounted for half.

The other 2,500,000 military force is almost all 4, and archers and snookers also account for half of them.

The soldiers of the 4th Martial Power, whether they are archers or snookers, stood in a fixed position and prepared to welcome the enemy who siege the city.

And half of the soldiers who had 5 force, that is, one thousand, were defending in a fixed area together with the rest of the soldiers.

But there were still 1,000 people, each of archers and snorkers, and were each treated as mobile troops by Xing Daorong and assigned positions according to the specific circumstances.

These thousand people are the real elite soldiers in the city guarding the city. More than half of the force reached 8, which is close to intermediate soldiers.

"Run!"

"Kill!"

...

Under the city, a thousand swordsman approached and finally reached the range of the archer, but Xing Daorong did not order archery.

These Park Swordsman obviously have been trained to siege and shields protect their heads very closely. Now, the efficiency of shooting arrows is not high.

‘Smack sex’

The sound of the wooden ladder against the wall sounded, and all ten long wooden ladders were built on the city wall, and more than a thousand Pu Daoshi immediately divided the work.

Under each wooden ladder, there are six strong Park Daoshi, who hold the ladder with his hands to ensure that the center of gravity is not lost. The rest of Park Daoshi holds a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, and quickly climbs up the wooden ladder.

At the same time, Liu Bei's army dozens of feet away had more than a thousand Pu Dao Hands and shields to protect the roof, rushing towards the city wall.

"Kill!"

"Run!"

...

In an instant, the siege battle reached its climax!

Xing Daorong stood at the top of the city, watching coldly, and kept silent until the first batch of Park Daobing climbed to three feet high, that was half the height of the city wall, and then shouted loudly.

"Drop the big stone!"

Boom boom boom boom~~

The soldiers who had been ready to go on the city wall immediately smashed the prepared big stone down the wooden ladder.

"ah"

"ah"

...

In an instant, countless screams sounded under the city. The Pu Daobing who had climbed into the middle had nowhere to hide, and was hit by big rocks and fell down with screams.

These big stones are used to defend the city. Each one weighs dozens of kilograms. When they are smashed from a high place, how can ordinary soldiers bear it?

Park Daobing's shield can defend against bows and arrows, but it does not work against heavy stones.

In an instant, the first batch of thousand people, Pu Daobing, fell down, one-third of them died on the spot, and one-third broke his arms or legs.

"Arrowman, shoot!"

At this time, Xing Daorong on the top of the city face was solemn and he issued a cruel order from his teeth.

‘Swish swish swish’

The archers were condescending and trained for a long time. At such a close distance, they could shoot almost without any arrows. Every arrow could hit an enemy soldier.

One-third of the fallen Pu Daobing was intact, but the shields in his hand were basically lost. Faced with the subsequent heavy rainstorms, most of them were killed or injured in an instant.

When the second batch of thousands of people, Park Daobing rushed to the bottom of the city wall, the first batch of Park Daobing had been killed or injured!

‘Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding’

Just as the soldiers guarding the city were planning to use their old tricks again and wipe out the second batch of Park Daoshi, there was a harsh sound of golden sound in the central position of Liu Bei's army in the rear.

‘Beat the drum and advance, and the sound of gold retreat’, the sound of gold comes out, and this is a signal of retreating.

More than a thousand Pu Dao Bings rushed up immediately retreated like a tide.

"hey-hey!"

Looking at Park Daobing who was retreating below, Xing Daorong smiled proudly, but he did not order the archers to shoot archery and chase after him.

These Pu Dao and Sword Warriors held their shields above their heads when they retreated, and they were very cautious, so the random arrows did not pose much threat to them.

"Liu Da'er, Zhuge Villageman, I haven't done my best yet!"

Looking up, Xing Daorong looked at Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang in the distance, muttering to himself.

Although my predecessor was not good at defending the city, as a general of this era, it was naturally impossible for him to know nothing about defending the city.

Combining the memories of the predecessor and several historical time-travel online novels read in later generations, although Xing Daorong dared not say he was a good general in defending the city, he still had basic methods of defending the city.

The defending city occupies the right time and place, and only by using the existing conditions well, it is enough to make one ten.

In this case, unless the difference in troops is too huge, or the guards are greedy, such as wanting to go out of the city to rob a camp, cut off food and grass, otherwise, there is absolutely no possibility of losing.

The city had already prepared enough food and grass for more than a year, and there was no shortage of food at all. On the contrary, could Liu Bei's army last for more than a month?

Not to mention Zhuge Duozhi or something, as long as my brother is closed and he doesn’t have a high intelligence, what can he do to me?

When it comes to intelligence, Bai Qi, a famous general of the Warring States Period, may not be under Zhuge. He can attack cities in other countries for a year or two?

‘Five attacks’, this is the iron rule of siege in ancient times!

As long as Xing Daorong is not stupid, he fights wits with Zhuge Villageman like his predecessor and stays honestly in the city, he will not worry at all.

Of course, the previous siege battle was a small fight, which was nothing to say, because Liu Bei's army did not take any serious action.

At least, Zhao Yun didn't come.

Even generals such as Liu Feng, Liao Hua, and Mi Fang did not participate in the siege.

Obviously, Zhuge Liang planned to try the level of the city guarding first!

Now that I've tried it out, Xing Daorong, who is in charge of the city guarding mission, is at least not a mediocre general.

Looking at Liu Bei's army who was retreating in the distance, Xing Daorong knew that the village man from Zhuge should have given up his plan to forcibly siege the city.

After all, Liu Bei's army had few possessions and could not have been abandoned all under the city of Zero County.

"Put these wooden ladders away!"

Staring at the retreating Liu Bei's army for a while, Xing Daorong ordered.

While Liu Bei's army retreated, the wooden siege ladders could not be taken away, so they stayed together, so Xing Daorong naturally would not keep them for the enemy.

These wooden ladders were probably brought by Liu Bei and Zhuge Villager from Xiangyang. One loss was one, and it was not easy to replenish them.

The trees within a radius of fifty miles have been cut down, where can I go to replenish them?

"Mr. Gong Jun!"

After calling a military marquis, Xing Daorong ordered:

"Your troops leave the city and pick up all the big rocks thrown out and the arrows shot out for me!"

"Here!"

Gong Junhou responded, then brought four hundred people out of the city, brought the prepared wooden cart, and asked to open the city gate, and go out to pick up the big rocks that had been thrown down and the arrows that were shot out.

Liu Bei's army obviously will not attack the city in the short term. These things are powerful weapons to defend the city, so of course they have to be recycled.

Xing Daorong continued to stand at the top of the city, watching Liu Bei's army retreating ten miles and starting to camp.

Later, a horse was driving towards the city gate.

"General Xing, please allow our army to restrain the bodies of soldiers who died in battle!"
