People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 96
"Climb up! Climb up!"

"Hurry up!"

"..."

Still in the west of Chencang City, the rebel soldiers crowded under the city wall, climbing up the ladder one by one.

They wanted to climb up, but someone at the top of the city didn't want them to climb up, so they threw stones, logs...they were all big pieces, if they really fell on people, they would be seriously injured even if they didn't die.

However, the rebel soldiers also have a way to deal with it. As long as the heavy object falls, they will hold the ladder with their right hand and hold up the small shield with their left hand.

With a bang, some people couldn't bear it, so they could only howl and fall down with the heavy object, but some people could hold it, and it was the turn of the heavy object to slide down obliquely.

Relying on this simple small wooden shield, countless lives were saved, otherwise they would have been smashed to death, thrown to death... In short, they would not have been able to escape death.

After avoiding this round of heavy objects, they can continue to climb up, and they are getting closer and closer to the top of the city.

Regardless of stone or wood, these heavy objects are still good, at most they are only physical attacks.

If you can bear it, continue to ascend the city;
If you can't bear it, you will die.

The key city is still boiling golden juice, the former is a fatally high temperature, and the latter is an unbearable extreme stench...

This is the first chemical attack!

They were scalded and stained with excrement. In such weather, they would be infected very quickly, and finally they would end their lives in pain.

Fortunately, boiling water and golden juice have to be boiled for a while, otherwise it would be fatal.

At this time, the soldiers of the Vanguard Battalion would think of Li Yao and be grateful for his kindness. With this simple shield, they could avoid being splashed in the face. Although they would still be burned, their survivability was greatly improved.

"drink!"

With a loud shout, a soldier finally rushed to the top of the wall, but what greeted him were several spears.

This soldier was also fierce. He used a wooden shield to block the spear, then rushed up quickly, swung a knife to kill one of them, swung the knife again and wounded another, and was finally stabbed to death by three shots.

After the soldier was killed, his body was also pushed off the top of the city, and it was thrown at more rebels who ascended the city as a heavy object.

Until this time, Zhang Wen, who was not far away, was relieved, and then his face was full of sadness. He couldn't help thinking in his heart:
"These Liangzhou soldiers are too fierce. If it weren't for the high walls of Chencang City, it would be impossible for these defenders to resist for such a long time!"

Back and forth, almost a month!
Because Zhang Wen and Yuan Pang carried the emperor's order on them, they did not dare to abandon the city and escape, and they had already blocked the city gate.

As long as the city is broken, it is basically the time for the two of them to die, so they can survive until now.

But people will be tired, and now the defenders and civilian husbands are not as good as before.

How long can it last?

They also don't know!

At this moment, an arrow flew towards him, Zhang Wen was so frightened that he quickly avoided, and the surrounding soldiers hurriedly protected him behind him.

Originally, the riding bow was soft and attacked from the bottom up, so it was difficult to exert its power.

But as Li Yao brought out the well, he had the ability to suppress the city, at least not like before, he could only be beaten passively.

Those chiefs and leaders also selected good shooters and let them target the people commanded by the city leaders.

If a team leader or commander is shot, all the nearby defenders will be at a loss. If they can directly shoot the opponent's general, then the siege battle can end early.

Until the sun was high and the heat was unbearable, Li Wenhou, Beigong Boyu, many chiefs and leaders finally decided to withdraw their troops and return to the camp.

Summer is not suitable for fighting, if it is not a rare opportunity, they will not raise troops at all.

Both the siege soldiers and the defenders were relieved at this time, at least they survived today.

tomorrow?

Let's talk about it tomorrow!

The dead were immediately taken to be buried, and all the wounded were sent to the wounded barracks. As for the rest of the army, after they returned to the camp, they immediately looked for a cool place to chat or sleep.

During this period of time, thousands of people have died, and no one wanted to pay too much attention to it, because the weather is too hot now.

But Li Yao knew that these corpses had to be dealt with, otherwise the weather would rot soon, because the plague would be rampant due to the breeding of bacteria.

However, Li Yao changed his explanation. In order to adapt to the ancient society, he said that too many people died here. If the corpses were not buried, ghosts and gods would be attracted to spread the plague and cause death.

Everyone believes in this statement, because the grassland actually has a similar witchcraft, throwing the corpses of cattle and sheep into the water source, so that the enemy can be cursed.

Therefore, the fresh corpses of the day will be buried on the same day.

As for the wounded, the treatment process is very rough. Hand injuries cut hands, leg injuries cut legs, and burns can be completely healed by themselves... If you really can't bear it, you can tell your companion directly and let him kill you with a knife.

There are not enough medicinal materials, there are not enough doctors, and if the injured want to live, they have to bear it.

It's cruel and realistic!

At the same time, in a huge camp, Li Wenhou, Beigong Boyu, many chiefs and leaders gathered here.

Since it was already summer, and they were still fighting, not to mention the smell on their bodies, staying in the tent was completely tormenting.

"It's so hot that everyone in the family wants to go home. At this time, the grassland must be lush with water and grass. Driving cattle and sheep to graze everywhere, riding on horses and singing loudly, that is the life that summer should have!"

"The brothers are very discouraged, and they don't want to fight anymore. This Chen Cangcheng can't be defeated at all!"

"Why don't we just go around, we'll go to Guanzhong to plunder, anyway, there is no Han army guarding it!"

"..."

At this time, everyone was talking about it, and what they said was revealing, and they didn't want to fight Chen Cangcheng anymore.

Li Wenhou and Beigong Boyu, the two of them looked ugly. After all, it was a game of two of them. If they couldn't win after a month of fighting, it would be a huge blow to their reputation.

Li Wenhou looked at Li Yao, he didn't want to retreat like this, so he hoped that his son could give him a surprise.

Li Yao understood Li Wenhou's intention, so he stood up directly, looked at the crowd and said:

"Everyone, please listen to me. The art of war pays attention to the fact that it is false, and the false is true. At the beginning, we set up a strategy of encircling three buildings and one, and randomly attacking the city. Now it is time to really harvest..."

"Tomorrow morning, if the army gathers for the west gate, then the enemy will think that we are the main attack on the west gate today, and I believe they will definitely bring the main force of the defenders to guard the west gate, but the west gate is just a feint..."

"Then it's up to everyone. I hope you can take your elite to the north and south gates, hide first, and launch a fierce attack immediately after the main force of the defenders leave. This time, you must successfully capture the city..."

"The one who enters the city first will win the first prize, everyone dare to fight with all your strength!"

Besiege Three Ques and One, Randomly Siege the City...

All the preparations are for today!
