Chapter 71 Weird Siege
At dawn the next day, the Wu army horns were connected and the sergeant drums sounded. In the long-range attack that was as rapid as rain, the siege soldiers dragged the ladder, pushed the siege cart, and shouted to the city wall.
The Han army guarding the city came out from behind the battlements and began to counterattack again, crossbows, stones, and rolling wood, and greeted the city one after another.
The shouts of killing and screams resounded throughout the world, and the new offensive and defensive battle began.
Less than half an hour before the siege began, the bright sky suddenly darkened, and the black clouds above our heads became heavier and heavier, just as night was about to come.
In just a moment, the rumbling thunder kept exploding in the sky, and lightning was like a sharp sword, passing through the sky one by one. After a few breaths, raindrops as big as soybeans began to pour densely into the earth. The rain fog caused by the heavy rain was white and it was impossible to see people clearly within thirty steps.
Faced with this kind of rain, the siegemen were at a disadvantage from bottom to top, but the sound of drums urging the battle was still beating desperately. The siege soldiers thought the commander would withdraw their troops, but the signal to withdraw troops did not sound. They had to brave the heavy rain, step on the mud, climb the slippery ladder, and attack almost like a death-sending attack.
The military orders were like mountains, and there was a supervising team holding a big sword behind it. No one dared to retreat. Unfortunately, these Wu soldiers could only bite the bullet, squint their eyes washed by the rain, and move forward desperately.
Faced with the sudden heavy rain, Chen Li's guards hurriedly went back and brought Chen Li a straw hat and straw hat to the soldiers guarding the city. Seeing the increasingly fierce attack under the city, he couldn't help but frown.
He turned around and said to Zou Pusheng, "Such heavy rain is not conducive to siege in any way. What is Zhu Yuanzhang's plan?"
Zou Pusheng said: "Yes, this kind of fighting style does not conform to the truth at all, and I don't know what the enemy wants to do."
Chen Li vaguely felt something was wrong, but he just couldn't figure out what the reason was.
He said to the guards beside him: "Go and notify the two General Zhang and General Luo to strengthen their defense and see if the enemy is going to play any tricks."
The guards obeyed the order and hurriedly got off the city and went to the other two gates to pass the message.
Faced with such heavy rain, the Wu army's siege cars suddenly stepped up their offensive, because there was no way to attack with fire in the city.
Seeing four siege cars being pushed under the city wall by hundreds of Wu soldiers, one of them began to hit the city gate, and the other four were forced under the city wall, only half a person from the top of the city. The Wu army above was desperately pushing the short ladder towards the battlement.
The Wu army on these siege cars were all good at shooting and killing many Han soldiers above, and the gap suddenly appeared on the top of the city.
When Chen Li saw the fire, he ran back to the city tower, put on his armor, wolves helmet, held a big axe that was ten feet long, and ran back like a gust of wind.
He leaned against the top of the city and shouted at the bottom of the city: "The King of Han is here, so you will die."
When he shouted with his power, he was like a bell. The wolf helmet on his head was hideous and terrifying. The dozen Wu soldiers who were attacking the city were so scared that they took a few steps back and trembled all over.
Of course they had heard of an invincible Han army general. As long as they met him, no one would want to live. Faced with the legendary killing god, more than a dozen Wu soldiers had the courage to step forward.
Chen Li ignored the long sword in their hands and grabbed the two Wu soldiers with just a stretch of his hand, throwing them off the city wall like garbage.
The other Wu soldiers had to bite the bullet and slash around Chen Li. How could Chen Li's armor and ordinary swords of ordinary soldiers cut in? Chen Li didn't have to hide, and threw them all into the city in just a few moments.
He picked up a heavy axe and slashed at the siege cars. Several siege cars were reimbursed in a short while. The Wu army above died and injured, and the crisis was immediately relieved.
Chen Li picked up a thick rolling wood, raised it over his head, and smashed it hard at the siege car that was facing the city gate.
This thing is really solid, and Chen Li is not bad at all. Chen Li was angry and jumped from the city to the siege car, slashed and slashed, then jumped down, grabbed the base, roared, and overturned the siege car to the ground.
The defenders and generals on the city were frightened to see Chen Li surrounded by Wu soldiers, and they did not dare to shoot arrows, nor did they dare to throw stones or woods. They watched Chen Li, who was trapped in the siege.
Chen Li waved his sword and could not stop slashing and slaughtering under the siege of thousands of Wu soldiers. For a moment, a large number of Wu soldiers were killed and injured, and all the Wu soldiers who were sieging the city stopped attacking the city and surrounded Chen Li. In the eyes of the Wu army, although Chen Li was invincible, he was just one person, and so many people didn't believe that he could not beat one person.
If the rumored killing god could be captured or killed alive, it would be a huge contribution, so thousands of Wu soldiers surrounded Chen Li like crazy.
Zou Pusheng looked at Chen Li who was suddenly angry, so nervous that he didn't know what to do. With such a high city wall, no one dared to jump down. He had to order all the Han troops to shoot the Wu soldiers surrounding Chen Li with bows and arrows.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the water under the city was over one foot deep. Chen Li slashed and killed for half an hour, killing Wu Bing no longer dared to approach him.
Chen Li stopped and shouted to the Wu army surrounding him: "Today, let's bypass your lives and go back and tell Zhu Chongba that this god general was sent by God to assist the King of Han. If he knows the truth, he will leave here quickly, otherwise, the general will ride alone to his camp and capture him alive to eat shit for the King of Han."
Chen Li was tall, his wolf helmet was hideous and terrifying, and his whole body was covered in blood. He was like a god of killing, which made all Wu Jun feel scared.
Chen Li walked to the city majestic and shouted to the city: "Little ones, put down the rope."
The Wu soldiers surrounding Chen Li watched Chen Li walk by, so scared that they couldn't help but retreat, and no one dared to go forward to stop him.
Chen Li grabbed the rope that was laid down on it and jumped up to the city.
Wu Bing, who was not scared, looked at Chen Li who was about to jump to the city and shouted: "Brothers, shoot him to death!"
Wu soldiers who woke up all shot arrows at Chen Li. Chen Li didn't care at all and let them shoot arrows. Of course, those arrows shot on his armor were useless, but they could not protect their legs, and more than a dozen sharp arrows were shot on it.
Chen Li stood on the battlements, slowly pulled down the sharp arrows one by one and threw them down.
Wu Bing under the city watched Chen Li pulling an arrow from his leg, but he seemed nothing happened. He was shocked. This way of playing was beyond their imagination.
The guards watching the city were also shocked. They could not imagine what was going on. It seemed that the arrows were not shot on him, but on a wooden man.
After Chen Li showed his power so much, the Wu soldiers under the city no longer dared to attack the city and retreated five hundred steps away. Someone reported this amazing scene to the coach.
