Chapter 245

When the East Gate war started, the siege teams of the north and South Gates had already reached the attack position. After hearing the attack horn of the middle army of the east gate, the north and South Gates also quickly launched the attack. Pei yuanshao's cavalry also divided into two teams, cruising around Yangwu city for ten miles, blocking the contact between Yangwu city and the outside world.

There are only one thousand archers in Yangwu city. Li Jin put them on the four walls on average, and there are only 250 soldiers on each side. Although there are more than four thousand archers, the cost of recruitment and maintenance of archers is twice as high as that of melee soldiers. In addition, the defense of archers is too low. Once they get close, they will die, so they are very important among the players The proportion is very low. Among the four thousand soldiers of duoqingjian and Xiake, there are only less than 500 archers. Once they are placed on the four walls, there are only more than 100 archers on each side. Therefore, the killing power of the more than 300 archers to the more than 2000 players who fill the River under the city is really limited. It took two thousand players half a day to fill out more than ten siege channels in the moat. The price is that more than one thousand players are reduced to one level. Half of the players here are life players of the Zilong Association. The level has little effect on them. However, their contribution to the alliance has increased a lot. In addition, the priority of purchasing raw materials in the alliance will be increased , the price will also drop slightly, which is the biggest harvest for life players. Although the north gate and the south gate were slightly worse than the east gate, they also used half a day to fill out three or five siege channels. In the afternoon, they were able to attack the city with ants, which did not delay Huang Zhong's arrangement.

After a midday break, the ant siege officially began in the afternoon. With the experience of the morning, Li Jin also knew that the attack directions of the princes in the East and the South were three directions. He quickly transferred half of the soldiers from the west gate, most of them on the east wall. The reason why Huang Zhong attacked the city in a hurry at lunch was mainly because the sunshine in the afternoon was not good for the taxis attacking the city in the East. With the continuous sound of bugles in Huang Zhong's camp, the two thousand soldiers of Zongheng town and one thousand sword and shield soldiers of changshe army, who had already been ready, began to enter the siege state. Twenty siege ladders were raised by more than a hundred soldiers and pushed slowly towards the wall. Behind them were two siege hammers escorted by hundreds of soldiers. This was a high-level game. The changshe craftsmen of Huangfu Chaobo couldn't do it. Only two high-level craftsmen under Kong's command could do it. In the past two days, more than ten junior craftsmen prepared materials to make four There is one in the north and one in the south. The other two are here. Behind these instruments are well fences. Although ten well fences can't suppress the archers in the city, they can still prevent the archers in the city from threatening the taxi soldiers in the city. With Huang Zhong's command, all the military orders were issued like flowing water, and all the soldiers who attacked the city were just like the body, arms and fingers.

Soon the soldiers of the siege ladder crossed the moat, and soon they were about to enter the bow and arrow range at the head of the city. Huang Zhong immediately ordered the siege ladder to speed up. After a battle drum sounded, the soldiers all gave a shout, and then carried the siege ladder to the city wall quickly. At the same time, there was a cry of archers attacking at the head of the city. Then, from the bottom of the city, we can see that the number of bows and arrows was obviously more than that in the morning. The siege soldiers ran all the way towards the city wall. From time to time, some soldiers fell by the arrow, but other people didn't even look at them and continued to rush towards the city wall. As we all know, it was safe to rush through the area covered by bows and arrows.

Standing at the head of the city and looking at the swarms of taxi soldiers coming down the city, Li Jin found that he still looked down on the princes of Guandong. He didn't expect that the other party spent half a day burying the siege channel of the moat, and then attacked the city with ants. Fortunately, he was ready. Looking at the approaching soldiers, Li Jin yelled to his deputy: "the enemy ants attack the city, rolling stones and beating wood are ready!"

"The archers fire in three rounds, stand back, the head of the sword and shield soldiers, and the Gunners are ready to meet the enemy!"

"Brothers, let these Guandong local dogs see our strength! To beat back the attack of the Guandong princes, I will ask for your help in front of the Taiwei! "

"Kill..."

At the same time, the soldiers had rushed through the moat and came to the foot of the city wall. The soldiers carrying the siege ladder quickly raised the siege ladder to the head of the city.

"Bang bang"

One after another, more than a dozen siege ladders approached the entrance of the upper city. Then the taxi soldiers quickly climbed down the ladder to the top of the city.

"Roll the stone and knock the wood down."

"Bang..."

"Rolling stone! Watch your step

"Ah

Fortunately, at this time, the well hurdle in the back has reached the attack range of the archers. Huang Zhong ordered ten small well hurdles, with ten archers on each well hurdle. With the help of the well hurdle, the threat of the siege soldiers is much smaller. The taxi driver on the siege ladder slowly climbed up the city. Li Jin immediately ordered his deputy general to take over the command of the city. He picked up his long gun and joined the fierce battle at the city. Li was originally a valiant general under Dong Zhuo, so as his nephew, Li Jin was also a famous brave general in the Xiliang army. This is why he did not listen to Li's words and withdrew to Luoyang. Instead, he prepared to occupy Yangwu city And the reason for that. With soldiers attacking the top of the city, the pressure under the city wall is much less. Although there are still archers shooting down the city, they can no longer pose a great threat to the soldiers under the city. Soon after the war, the two siege vehicles arrived at the gate of the city. Knowing that the city must have a back move, Huang Zhong didn't let the two siege vehicles attack together. The taxi driver in the front of the siege vehicle yelled, and the siege hammer hit the gate with the strength of dozens of people Straight ring, more than 10 meters high walls are Shuo Shuo Shuo, the city gate hole is the dust "Shuo Shuo..." Straight down. Li Jin's deputy general was a veteran of Xiliang who was specially arranged by Li for his nephew. He had a lot of experience in leading soldiers. Seeing that the siege hammer had arrived at the foot of the city, he immediately ordered: "fire oil, prepare!"Already ready for a pot of boiling oil was carried to the head of the city, and then quickly carried to the top of the gate hole.

"Pour..."

"Ho..."

"Ah In the face of the hot oil coming from the sky, the taxi driver was drenched. The hot oil drenched people from head to foot, and all of a sudden made people skin and flesh. A pot of hot oil from the city drenched down, the city's torch then came.
