Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 2537 Xu Shiji is in a desperate situation, with no chance of survival and no help

When he heard the Jin army blow the charge horn, Huo Jun drew the sword from his waist and shouted: "Get ready... fire the catapults."

On every wall of Pingyuan City, there is a catapult almost every ten meters, and there are hundreds of catapults on each wall.

Moreover, this is not the limit within Plain City.

There are a large number of catapults in reserve in the city, and once a catapult on the city wall is damaged, it can be replaced at any time.

In addition, there are a large number of crossbows on each city wall.

In terms of firepower, there is absolutely no doubt about it.

"Ding, Huo Jun's Rock skill is activated:
Rock: solid as a rock, strong as iron.

Effect 3: When in a defensive state, if you are the commander-in-chief, your command will be +4, military strength will be +1, and the military strength of the entire army will increase by 3 to points depending on the difference in the number of people on both sides.

Effect 2: When in a defensive state, if you are not the main general, your command will be +3 and your military strength will be +.

Effect three: When effect two is activated, the command value of your main general will be increased by 1 point. If the current command value of your main general is greater than 100, your command cannot be increased, and your intelligence will be increased instead. If the current command value and intelligence value of your main general are both greater than 100, this skill effect will be invalid.

Huo Jun's Rock skill effect 2 is activated, command +3, force +94, basic command 96, current command rises to 85, basic force 88, current force rises to ."

"Ding, Huo Jun's Rock skill's third effect is activated, increasing Wang Liao's command value by 1 point. Wang Liao's basic command is 99, and the current command rises to 100."

It’s a pity indeed!
Effect 1 of Huo Jun's skill is the strongest one.

Not only is its own increase high enough, but it also has an extremely high increase for the entire army.

But unfortunately, no matter when he was in Jingzhou or now, he was not the main general, but only a deputy general. It was really difficult for him to bring out the strongest effect of this skill.

After all, although Huo Jun is good at defensive battles, he is not very good in other aspects.

Compared with other famous generals, he has fewer opportunities to shine.

As the main general, he naturally cannot compete with other generals.

After all, Liu Bei didn't have a system and couldn't see Huo Jun's skills.

And with Huo Jun's order, thousands of stones flew up in an instant and smashed heavily into the Jin army's formation.

Under the city wall, the attacking Jin army formed a loose formation and quickly approached the city wall.

When you have achieved success, you will naturally want to disperse as much as possible.

If we form a secret formation like in a field battle, facing the catapults and rain of arrows from above the city wall, what difference would it make to us?
However, even if the Jin army's formation was dispersed, there would always be unlucky people who would be hit by flying stones or die under the rain of arrows from time to time.

However, the other Jin troops around seemed to have seen nothing and continued to advance towards the city wall.

Logically speaking, in an offensive battle, weak forces are mostly used in the initial period to consume the enemy's manpower. The truly sharp forces can only be used when the final blow is decided.

However, Lian Po used the elite and most elite troops at the very beginning.

There is no other reason, Lian Po still wants to win over the hearts of the people!

It is extremely difficult to conquer the hearts of the people of Qinghan. However, don't forget that there are more people than just Qinghan in the plain at this time.

At this time, most of the Pingyuan defenders were from Jizhou. It was extremely difficult to conquer the former, but not necessarily the latter.

In particular, the morale of the Jizhou soldiers was already greatly reduced.

Not to mention, Lian Po actually prepared a big gift for them, which was already on the way.

Although the fierce attack at this time would cause heavy casualties, we must still lay the groundwork before the big gift arrives.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

The flying rocks in the sky were like bombers, constantly wreaking havoc on the Jin army's ranks and instantly destroying the Jin army.

The miserable cries rang out one after another, but the soldiers of the Jin army still held their shields high and charged forward with gritted teeth, risking being hit by flying stones.

They are all elites, so they are used to it. Moreover, their psychological endurance is not comparable to those of ordinary soldiers.

The fall of their comrades could not shake their will.

At the same time, when Lian Po was attacking Pingyuan fiercely, Xu Shiji was also fighting a series of battles.

Moreover, the battle situation in Xu Shiji's place was much more tragic than that in Pingyuan.

Here in Pingyuan, there were only 30,000 soldiers and horses fighting against Lian Po's army of 100,000.

However, Pingyuan had high walls and abundant supplies, so there was no risk of loss in a short period of time.

But it was different for Xu Shiji. The troops he faced were much more numerous than those Pingyuan faced.

The Yellow River Navy had 30,000 soldiers and horses, the Yangtze River Navy had 80,000 soldiers and horses, plus the 80,000 infantry and cavalry troops transferred by Xue Rengui.

However, not all of these troops landed.

Han Shizhong led 60,000 Yangtze River naval troops out to sea to search for the Qingzhou navy and the Youzhou navy, looking for an opportunity to defeat the main force of the enemy navy.

As for the 30,000 Yellow River navy, they are now controlling the entire Yellow River. In particular, after blocking the Yellow River's outlet to the sea to prevent Han Shizhong from going out to the sea with a large number of troops, they were instead attacked by a surprise attack from the enemy.

As for Qi Jiguang, he led the remaining 20,000 navy and the 80,000 infantry and cavalry sent by Xue Rengui, landed in northern Qing and attacked the counties in the plains. Naturally, the first to bear the brunt were Xu Shiji's 30,000 troops.

Originally, Xu Shiji had only 30,000 soldiers and horses to fight against the 100,000-strong Jin army, which was already full of difficulties.

However, after Lian Po's troops reached Qingzhou, he ordered 100,000 troops to attack Pingyuan, and the remaining 60,000 troops were divided into several routes, attacking the counties along the way while outflanking Xu Shiji's back.

In other words, at this time, Xu Shiji had to face the siege of 160,000 Jin troops.

Moreover, these 160,000 soldiers and horses blocked all his ways of survival and surrounded him from all directions.

At this time, Xu Shiji was in a situation where he had no way to go up to heaven or down to earth.

At this time, Xu Shiji was in a state of having no external reinforcements.

After all, although Xue Rengui dispatched 80,000 infantry and cavalry to land in the northern part of Qingzhou, he and Guo Ziyi together still had an army of more than 200,000. Neither Liu Bei nor Tian Dan could withdraw troops to support them.

Besides, given Xu Shiji's current situation, even if there were reinforcements, if the number of these reinforcements was less than a certain level, they would not be able to help him when they returned, but would instead bring more deaths.
