Chapter 2172 Wu Jun's Onslaught
The Wu army officers and soldiers were about to throw the sky-bombing thunder, but they didn't expect that the other party would emit a dense rain of arrows at this time. The unblocked Wu army officers and soldiers were immediately shot and rolled around on the ground, screaming sounded!
The officers and soldiers of Wu were not at all concerned about throwing thunder in the sky, and turned around and ran away, but were shot to the ground by the rain of arrows flying in the air while running away!
Huang Gai was shocked and angry, shouting anxiously: "Come on the shield!"
The Wu army officers and soldiers holding shields reacted and hurriedly rushed forward with their shields to block the rain of crossbow arrows shot by Liu Xianjun, and the situation stabilized!
Seeing that the crossbow shooting had been blocked, Liu Xianjun stopped shooting and quickly restored the shield curtain.
"Push forward! Get ready for thunder!" Huang Gai shouted sternly.
The Wu army officers and soldiers formed a shield wall and advanced in unison. At the same time, many Wu army officers and soldiers holding sky-blasting thunder followed closely behind the shield wall.
Liu Xianjun obviously felt that it was useless to continue attacking with crossbows, so he was not in a position to face Wu Jun's approaching at this moment!
When the Wu army approached less than twenty steps from the Liu Xianjun round formation, it immediately stopped. The Wu army officers and soldiers who followed behind the shield wall holding the sky-blasting thunder immediately ignited the sky-blasting thunder in their hands and threw it towards the Liu Xianjun round formation ahead!
In an instant, countless balls flew towards the circular formation, then hit the shield wall and then fell to the ground!
Then there was a loud bang and a loud noise, and the flames were swept out and connected into pieces, and in a blink of an eye it actually flooded the entire circular array!
The rumbling explosions were endless, and the flames and dust surging, spreading the entire city, and the Liu Xianjun's round formation could no longer be seen!
Lu Meng and others on the city wall stared at each other with their eyes wide open, their eyes full of anticipation. The officers and soldiers all showed excitement!
"This kind of bombardment! Liu Xianjun must have finished it! I just hope that Liu Xian will not die in the middle!..." Zhang Zhao couldn't help but say.
Zhang Zhao said this, of course, not because he had any kind thoughts towards Liu Xian. He just felt that if Liu Xian died, although he could change the overall situation, Kuaiji would still be unable to escape.
But if Liu Xian captured him alive before he died, then holding Liu Xian hostage and threatening the enemy would undoubtedly have greater benefits for Eastern Wu, and he could also protect Kuaiji!
Huang Gai saw that the flames and smoke had already flooded his opponent for a while, so he shouted: "Enough is enough! Stop attack! Stop attack!"
The Wu army's grenadiers stopped throwing one after another. The rumbling explosion stopped, and the smoke and dust in the urn city began to gradually dissipate.
After a while, the smoke and dust finally dissipated. All the Wu army officers and soldiers stared at each other with wide eyes, but they suddenly saw the round formation before, unmoved and unscathed!? Everyone couldn't help but be shocked!
"This, how is this possible?" someone exclaimed.
In fact, this is nothing strange. The defense formed by Liu Xianjun's specially reinforced thick tower shield after entering the ground is almost indestructible, and even grenades in the modern world may be difficult to shake.
The thunder of this era is loaded with primitive gunpowder, which is far less powerful than grenades in later generations, so its bombardment cannot shake this defensive front at all!
Neither the shock wave it generates or the fragments of the clay pot that explodes, it cannot break through the defense of this large shield. Therefore, although the bombardment of the sky thunder just now was magnificent and thrilling, it could not shake Liu Xianjun's defense line at all!
A brief silence appeared on the battlefield, and many Wu soldiers showed a look of at a loss.
Huang Gai came to his senses and shouted loudly: "Occurrence! Continue to attack!..."
The Wu army officers and soldiers came to their senses in a shock, and couldn't help but howl and rushed towards the opponent's round formation, killing sounds shook the sky!
In the blink of an eye, the tide of war crashed into the round shield, but it was as before, unable to break through Liu Xianjun's defense! Just like a flood hitting an indestructible embankment, although the scene was amazing, it could not shake the embankment at all!
The Wu army attacked for a moment and could not break the formation, and its momentum began to decline rapidly!
At this moment, Liu Xianjun, who was in a defensive state, suddenly launched a counterattack, and countless spears kept stabbing out from behind the shield wall, stabbing the Wu army officers and soldiers who rushed upwards!
Blood was flying in the air, and the Wu army officers and soldiers who fell in front of the front had accumulated speed at the naked eye! The Wu army's crazy charge was like a moth to a fire!
Lu Meng shouted at a general beside him, "Take the city rusher to Huang Gai immediately and ask Huang Gai to use the city rusher to break the formation!"
The general Ying promised and ran down immediately.
At this moment, the only way Lu Meng could think of was the Chongcheng Car. The Chongcheng Car can be said to be an inconspicuous heavy weapon, usually only used to attack the city gate or not a particularly strong city wall.
But its power is definitely very powerful! Since it can break through ordinary city walls, it is naturally no problem to break through the opponent's military formation!
The army led by Huang Gai failed to succeed for a long time, but instead suffered many casualties. The morale had fallen and the offensive was not as good as before.
Huang Gai had no choice but to order the attack to stop.
After the order was conveyed, the Wu army in the attack retreated one after another, as if the flood that was hitting the embankment had finally retreated.
Huang Gai adjusted his troops to prepare for the next attack.
At this moment, a general and his soldiers came over with many rushing cars and clasped their fists at Huang Gai and said, "Elder General, the deputy governor ordered me to bring these rushing cars! The deputy governor asked the old general to use these rushing cars to attack the enemy formation!"
Huang Gai showed joy on his face and couldn't help but shout, "That's great! The Deputy Governor and I really coincide! You guys came so timely!"
Then Huang Gai transferred a team of elite troops to receive these rushing cars, and then ordered the army: "The shield hands form a square formation, and the guard rushing cars approach the enemy, and act immediately!"
Dongdongdongdongdongdongdong...! The sound of Wu Jun's war drums sounded loudly again.
Countless Wu army shield players quickly formed a square formation to protect the chasing carts and approached the Liu Xianjun circle in front.
The dense rain of arrows storm of Liu Xianjun's crossbow poured down, hitting the Wu army's shield, making a loud bang. Occasionally, arrows passed through the gap and knocked down the Wu army's officers and soldiers, but they did not have much effect on the entire Wu army!
The Wu army formation was approaching, and the Wu army officers and soldiers let out a burst of shouts. The shouts were mixed with the roar of more than a dozen rushing cars crushing the earth, which was very amazing!
Seeing that the Wu army formation was approaching less than twenty steps in front of the Liu Xian army formation!
