Chapter 536

After a few days of adaptation, Nanyang soldiers became more and more proficient in the mutual cooperation of siege. Soon, under the protection of archers and sword shield soldiers, the siege ladder quickly approached the city wall, and then quickly assembled. After it was fixed on the head of the city, Nanyang soldiers, who had been ready for a long time, bit their ring head sword with their mouths, held up their shield in one hand, and tilted them on their heads to do their best He hid himself under the shield, and with the other hand he quickly climbed up the ladder. Before we reached the middle of the climb, we heard the sound coming down from the wall.

"Roll the stone and challenge the wood, prepare, throw!"

The siege soldiers stopped immediately, put their body close to the ladder, made an angle between the shield and the ladder, and hid their body under the shield as much as possible. As soon as they got better, they felt a huge force hitting their shield. Fortunately, because the shield had a small angle with the ladder, the boulders at the head of the city rolled down the slope of the shield In this way, the Nanyang army still felt the Qi and blood in his chest turned up. However, I can't take care of so much now. I press the blood rolling in my chest, climb up with hands and feet, and quickly climb towards the city.

As more and more soldiers attack the city on the ladder, more and more Nanyang soldiers attack the city along the ladder. The fierce battle in the city begins between the two armies. After half an hour of fierce fighting, Ji Ling sees that his soldiers can't get a firm foothold in the city, so he orders Ming Jin. Later, he hears the order that the soldiers retreat like the tide.

At the end of the day, several rounds of attacks were repulsed by Luoyang garrison. Until the evening, Nanyang army failed to surpass the city for a quarter of an hour. Then, with the sound of gold, the princes of the two middle schools ended the day's battle. However, all the troops did not withdraw from the city. Instead, they built a temporary camp at the gate of the outer city, neitengye Take control of the outer city wall and wait for the next day's battle.

In the following time, Nanyang army and Hanoi army were all out to attack the city. Unfortunately, in the face of Luoyang garrison, the two armies could not take advantage of it at all. On the contrary, they could not advance or retreat at the expense of their troops. Two days later, Ji Ling of Luoyang finally got the news of the loss of Luyang. After discussing with Shu Zhao, Ji Ling decided to block the news and fight hard. Unfortunately, the Nanyang army, which sent all its heavy infantry on the battlefield, finally came back with no success. Even the heavy infantry were damaged by more than 3000 yuan. In desperation, Ji Ling had to give orders on the pretext that his soldiers were tired and could not fight again The soldiers took a rest day.

At that time, although the army of Lu Bu attacked Hangu pass with all their strength, the Hangu pass with Zaozhi and Dianwei still remained as stable as Mount Tai. In addition, the news of Lu Yang's fall had spread to the army of Lu Bu yesterday. Lu Bu was so surprised that he quickly called all the generals to discuss the matter. At this time, there were only generals in Lv Bu's army. Chen Gong was still in Hanoi to borrow food and did not return. When he suddenly learned that Luyang had been lost and the rear road of Nanyang army had been blocked, all generals asked Lv Bu to stop fighting for a few days on the ground of soldiers' fatigue. They would make a decision when the battle in Luyang or Luoyang was finally known.

In fact, it's not that the generals in the army shirked their responsibilities. It has been more than ten days since Lv Bu's army attacked Hangu pass. Lv Bu's army has lost 35000 soldiers. Originally, Lv Bu's army had only 80000 soldiers. In the middle of the day, Zhang Liao recruited 10000 soldiers again in several counties, but now it has only 55000 soldiers. There are 35000 cavalry among them, so only 20000 soldiers are left. This is also the reason why the generals strongly opposed Lu Bu's continued attack on Hangu pass.

You know, at the most time, Wei Xu had 15000 soldiers under him, but now there are only 5000 soldiers left, let alone other generals. Everyone thinks that the more soldiers he has, the better. At last, under the persuasion of Zhang Liao's generals, Lv Bu had to order a truce for a few days. What's strange is that Hangu pass even ended the war before Luoyang City. In this way, Luoyang battlefield has fallen into a rare calm, but the battle of Luyang county will start.

We went back a few days to September 5 and looked back at the Longhua cavalry led by Zhao Yun. After he sent troops from Longhua two days ago, Zhao Yun led the army to stay in Tuyin city and transfer Baima Yicong to another post. At other times, the cavalry of Longhua were on the road of running. Along the way, six thousand knights and twenty thousand horses left right Peking, passed Yuyang and Guangyang, entered Jizhou from Zhuo County, then entered Changshan state through Zhongshan state, and finally entered Zhaojia village at night two days later.

Although he had been informed by Luoyang for a long time, people in Zhaojia village were shocked by 20000 horses. As soon as he entered the village, Zhao Yun ordered his cavalry to rest. At the same time, he asked the cavalry in Zhaojia village to feed 20000 horses and prepare for the next day's March. Soldiers and horses can rest, but Zhao Yun can't. After a few words with his brother and sister, Zhao Yun picks up the battle report and arrangement of Luoyang handed by Zhao Feng and looks at the map carefully. Brother and sister know that it's urgent and don't disturb them any more. Instead, they are quietly watching Zhao Yun.

Looking at the map and the war report, Zhao Yun also asked Zhao Yu about Luoyang from time to time, because Zhao Yu had stayed in Luoyang for such a long time after all, and he was still fighting in the last defense war. He must know something about Luoyang. When Zhao Yu didn't know anything about it, Zhao Yun simply asked someone to call the person in charge of Zhaojia village of shadow guard. At this time, Zhang Yi has successfully arrived in Yecheng, and discussed with Han Fu that Jizhou will dispatch 20000 soldiers from each county. In order not to arouse the vigilance of Zhang Yang and Yuan Shao forces, the soldiers went to liyang to gather and listen to orders, and prepared to cooperate with Zhao Yun's army by the baimagang water army of Liyang.Even if the hostile forces find out the news, they will think that Jizhou army sent soldiers to Luoyang to support. Now the army has gathered to Liyang, waiting for Zhao Yun to lead the army to join. In the past few days, the shadow guards have adjusted the situation of Hanoi clearly. What makes Huangfu Chaobo feel strange is that the cities in Hanoi are obviously divided into two parts. In addition to the 20000 soldiers in dangyin City, only huaixian county has 20000 soldiers, and other cities have only 2000 soldiers. In Wenxian, Pinggao, Zhouxian and other cities to the west of Hanoi, there were 5000 to 10000 taxi soldiers.

Although it's not clear what the reason is, this situation is exactly what Huangfu Chaobo wants. After all, if there are more troops along the way from Jizhou to the west, the general plan is not good. Now only after dangyin, Zhao Yun's army can directly break into huaixian.
