Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1065: Pingshan Flying City
Although the bloody battle in Luoyang City was fierce, the city was too large, with high walls and deep moats, and many powerful weapons to defend the city. Therefore, even though Sun Ce had 100,000 soldiers and horses, it was difficult for him to attack each city gate separately. Instead, he concentrated his forces and stormed the west gate.

As a result, the other three city gates seemed a little deserted.

At the south gate of the city, most of the patrolling troops guarding the city have been transferred to the south gate. Now, there are only about a thousand people on the city wall. However, it is a wartime state after all. Even if these thousand people have not found the enemy, they are still on high alert and patrolling in shifts without any slackness.

After hearing that the Queen went to the west gate in person and shot and killed an enemy soldier with a powerful crossbow and injured General Zhou Tai, these soldiers, who were already somewhat dissatisfied with their inability to participate in the war and make merit, became completely crazy.

"Wow, I'm so pissed. Such a great opportunity was missed."

"I really want to rush to the west gate right away and kill a few enemy soldiers, so that you can see our bravery and style."

Zhang Yu's reputation for virtue had long spread among the people and the army. In addition, she was Zhang Yong's sister, so many soldiers in the army admired her very much. Being able to kill enemies and make achievements in front of her, the honor gained was ten or a hundred times greater than ordinary military exploits.

It is for this reason that when these thousand people heard the news, how could they not beat their chests and stamp their feet?

The captain of the south gate came over with a stern face and said, "Alright, alright, how can you gather here to have fun?

A soldier complained: "General, why didn't you try harder and transfer all of us to the west gate to join the battle? The south gate is idle anyway."

"Yes, we can't stand the humiliation of watching others make achievements while we are left out."

"Bah..." The captain of the city gate was already unhappy, and he became even more furious after being teased by them.

"You still have energy? I am just standing here staring blankly. I have nothing to say. Why are you yelling? I think you are itching for trouble."

"Hehe, General, since you also want to kill the enemy, why don't we just leave 300 people behind, and you take 700 of us to the west gate and say we are going to rescue them. It's better than sitting here and waiting for nothing, right?"

"Yes, yes, that's a very good idea." All the soldiers were eager to try.

The captain glared at them fiercely and said, "Get out of here! You guys are courting death! I haven't lived long enough. If you disobey military orders and mobilize troops without authorization, you will be beheaded. You accomplices will at most be beaten, but I will lose my head. Don't make trouble for me! Get out of here..."

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted loudly: "Look, there are enemies!"

The captain of the city gate was furious: "Who dares to tease me, you bastard? I will skin you alive."

Another soldier also pointed forward, his face filled with irrepressible excitement: "General, it's true, the enemy is coming!"

The captain was stunned for a moment, and looked outside the city in the direction he pointed. Then he was so surprised and happy that he almost jumped up.

"Great! There really are enemies. Haha, God has been very kind to me."

About ten miles outside the south gate is a sparse forest. Walking further into the forest, you will enter the mountains. At this moment, teams of soldiers suddenly ran out of this originally very quiet forest.

These soldiers had no armor, and many of them were even shirtless. There were no flags raised in the army. There were only two burly men charging in the front, and the captain felt that they looked familiar.

"Yes...it's Cao Cao's Pingshan Flying Army!"

The captain soon remembered them.

He rubbed his hands together, excited: "Great, great! I thought they had fled back to Yuzhou or died in these mountains after being defeated by General Guan's horse spear formation. I didn't expect them to come back. Great! Great!

He picked up his crescent halberd and said, "Soldiers, it's time to perform meritorious deeds. Everyone, cheer up!"

"Kill... kill... kill... kill..." A thousand people shouted in unison, shaking the earth.

These people were eager to fight and were not afraid at all that the number of people outside the city was obviously five or six times more than their own. Not to mention that they were in the world's strongest city, even if they met in the wild, these thousand people had enough confidence to kill the five or six thousand rough men without armor in front of them, even if the other side had Xu Chu and Dian Wei.

"Hey, they are not wearing armor, I think the armor is so damaged that it can't cover the body, right? But these idiots dare to attack Luoyang City without even bringing siege equipment. Could it be that Xu Chu and Dian Wei were knocked unconscious by General Guan's horse lance a few days ago?"

The captain naturally knew that on that day inside Hulao Pass, Guan Yu and his three thousand Purple Gold Dragon Riders displayed their divine power and defeated the two fierce generals in Cao's camp, forcing them to flee in panic. Only half of the ten thousand Pingshan Flying Army escaped, and their incomparably hard heavy armor was smashed into pieces by the horse lances.

Because of this, he did not take these thousands of so-called enemy troops, who were not much stronger than the savages, seriously at all.

"General, do you want to use the Jingshen Crossbow to kill them directly?" asked a sergeant.

The lieutenant sneered, "Tsk, you are so stupid. The power of the Jingshen Crossbow is indeed ridiculously strong, but it is very inconvenient to use it to deal with these scattered small enemy forces. This crossbow is not easy to make, you can't waste it casually, this is all His Majesty's money."

After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Get your bows and arrows ready!"

One thousand strong bows with a pulling force of 1.5 stone were aimed at Xu Chu and others at the same time. Seeing that the Pingshan flying army, which was in the front, had already reached a distance of about 150 steps outside the city gate, the captain guarding the city immediately shouted: "Fire!"

A thousand arrows flew away and turned into a rain of arrows.

However, Xu Chu and others took their time, some from their arms, some from the backpacks behind them, and took out black objects of varying sizes.

They held this object in front of their heads, some big and some small, to cover part of their bodies.

The rain of arrows arrived in an instant.

"Ding ding ding..."

“Puff… ah…”

Some arrows hit the black objects and were blocked, but some Pingshan Feijun soldiers were unlucky and were still hit by arrows. They fell to the ground on the spot, their lives uncertain.

"Huh? What the hell is this? The shield doesn't look like a shield, but it can actually block our rain of arrows?"

The captain was extremely angry about the result, yet somewhat confused.

"Shoot again, shoot again for me, I don't believe I can't kill them, shoot now."

Another wave of arrows shot out, and again, only killed about a hundred enemy soldiers.

Just as the thousand Han soldiers on the city wall drew their bows again and prepared to shoot arrows for the third time, Xu Chu and Dian Wei, with hundreds of the fastest Pingshan Flying Army, had already rushed to the bottom of the city wall.

"Quick, prepare the log roll..."

He had just said half of his words when a number of black hooks suddenly appeared in the sight of the captain and the thousand soldiers defending the city.

"This is..." Before the captain could react, the hooks sank quickly and then firmly hooked onto the parapet.

"Damn it, are you treating our city wall as a cliff? Brothers, chop it down for me."

As he spoke, he drew his sword, took a step forward, and swung the sword.

However, there was only a loud "clang" sound, but the "rope" connected to the hook did not move at all.

"Damn, why are there so many strange things today?"

One soldier exclaimed, "General, this is made of mixed wire."

Upon hearing this, the captain lowered his head and took a closer look. As expected, he could vaguely see some very thin iron wires mixed in the rope.

"Fuck the wire! I don't believe I can't cut it. You guys keep hitting me with rolling logs and rocks, and I'll keep chopping."

He swung his sword again, ready to chop it down, and the soldiers around him also raised stones and logs, ready to throw them down. At this moment, a voice came from under the city wall.

"Throw it up!"

Then, a number of black strange-shaped objects suddenly rose into the air and then fell heavily onto the city wall.

"Ah?" The captain was completely confused by this wave of "turning the tables".

"Bang, bang, bang..." The black objects fell one after another and hit several unlucky Han soldiers on the spot. However, it seemed that these objects were not very heavy. Only a few soldiers fainted, and the others were only slightly injured.

"General, these are broken armor." A soldier shouted. The captain looked at the black objects on the ground and sure enough, they were broken pieces of black armor.

At this moment, "whoosh..." a black shadow jumped high from outside the city wall.

"Dian Wei is here!"

The black shadow landed heavily in front of the captain, then raised his head. The captain suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by some ferocious beast.
