From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 104 Siege
In Xianhe Town, a military commander wearing a white cloak, a sword on his waist, and a white beard looked very elegant.

What surprised Zhuge Liang was that he was holding a whisk in his hand. He looked not like a military general but more like a Taoist priest.

This is Gongsun Zan, an eighth-rate general recruited by the players of Xianhe Dynasty yesterday.

Gongsun Zan’s martial arts are not that strong, but his strength lies in his excellent ability to command troops, especially in defense, with the blessing of buff. Under his defense, the morale of the soldiers will be improved and the strength of the defense will be higher!

And just yesterday, the players of Xianhe Dynasty spent all the resources in the country and raised 400 gold coins, which they used directly to upgrade the city walls.

With a five-meter-high city wall and Gongsun Zan's defense, it is not easy to break into the city.

As long as they can hold out for another four days, Xianhe Dynasty can start the next round of recruitment. By then, the military force will be expanded to 500 people, and the defense capability will be greatly enhanced again.

Therefore, the players of Xianhe Dynasty are still very confident that they can block the attack from Daming Town.

Zhuge Liang did not know the situation of the Xianhe Dynasty, so he first dispatched a hundred vanguard troops to try to attack the city.

Under the cover of sword and shield soldiers, the vanguard troops quickly arrived at the foot of the city of Xianhe Town. The ladders were quickly set up, and Zhuge Liang immediately ordered archers to provide cover.

A rain of arrows continued to fall towards the sky above the city of Xianhe Town, giving the first soldiers attacking the city enough time to climb the city walls!
Gongsun Zan calmly began to command the defenders on the city to throw stones down, and arranged a large number of troops near each ladder. The supply from the rear was also in place, and various stones in the city were continuously transported up. The supply was orderly.

The soldiers of Daming Town had no way to climb up. Even though their morale and strength had increased under the command of Zhuge Liang, the continuous deaths of soldiers still greatly undermined their morale.

The troops around him were already insufficient, and seeing that the soldiers on the ladders were having difficulty in attacking the city, he had to start paying attention to the enemy's general.

He is a defensive stalwart.

Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes and had to admire his opponent's strong defense.

"Send the flag signal and call off the troops!"

Zhuge Liang temporarily put this round of siege on hold as he did not have enough troops and could not disperse their forces.

The enemy can mobilize most of its forces and focus on attacking the first troops climbing the two ladders.

In order to capture the city, the current siege equipment and manpower were far from sufficient, so Zhuge Liang had to order his soldiers to temporarily set up camp a mile away. At the same time, he sent people to Jiming Town to mobilize troops and asked Pan Feng to lead troops to reinforce.

An hour later.

Pan Feng came with 200 soldiers to reinforce. Not only did the military strength increase, but Pan Feng also brought many siege equipment, such as siege vehicles, ladders, siege hammers, etc.

"General Zhuge, what's going on?"

When Pan Feng heard that Zhuge Liang needed reinforcements, he was also stunned.

Pan Feng knew how strong Zhuge Liang's fighting ability was, but he never expected that he would run into trouble in such a small city.

"A second-level town, guarded by military commanders."

Zhuge Liang replied.

Pan Feng's expression also became solemn. The second-level towns were fine. They were equipped with five-meter city walls, which were easy to defend but difficult to attack. It was not easy to take them down.

Pan Feng had always thought that the development of Dameng Town should be far ahead of other players, but he never expected that other players were actually quietly catching up with Dameng Town.

"Attack the city, take it down quickly!"

We can no longer give the other party the opportunity to develop, otherwise the threat to this town will become infinitely greater in the future.

Zhuge Liang reminded Pan Feng: "The other side has a general who is very good at defense, so let the brothers be careful."

"Spread out when attacking the city. You lead the troops to attack from the east city!"

"Okay!" Pan Feng nodded!
The cowhide drums were beaten, and the deep, sobbing horns sounded like a death warrant. Under the cover of night, the massive army launched another fierce attack on the city wall of Xianhe Town.

Dozens of soldiers holding thick siege beams attacked the city gate of Xianhe Town.

The siege vehicle is sandwiched next to the city gate. It is composed of ladders and a cart workshop. Soldiers enter the siege vehicle through wooden ladders. The siege vehicle is at the same height as the city wall, forming a small flat space, which can be used for close combat with enemy soldiers!
At the same time, Pan Feng also launched a crazy siege in Dongcheng.

Gongsun Zan was unable to cope with the situation and had no other generals at his disposal, so he could only go to the South Gate for defense first.

Under his command, the soldiers attacking the city still did not gain any advantage.

Their military strength was already insufficient, and they had to divide half of it to defend against Pan Feng.

At the same time, a part of the troops had to be deployed to guard the siege wood below the city which could break through at any time.

There are only more than seventy soldiers guarding the South City Gate, which is a serious shortage of manpower.

Gongsun Zan had no choice but to mobilize the people in the city to go to the city gate, but Zhuge Liang didn't care. He immediately ordered his archers and shouted, "Shoot indiscriminately!"

Since the civilians have already climbed onto the city walls, they are no different from soldiers, and there cannot be even a bit of mercy on the battlefield.

Rockets were fired towards the city gate, illuminating the battlefield.

Immediately, the siege wood below broke through the city gate with a bang.

Upon seeing this, Zhuge Liang immediately rode his Broken Wind Horse, holding a Black Iron Spear, and charged towards the city gate.

"Come in!"

Gongsun Zan was horrified and shouted, "Organize the troops and follow me to fight!"

"Guard the city gates and don't let them in!"

As soon as Gongsun Zan got down from the city gate, the vanguard troops on the ladders had already reached the top of the city.

At the same time, Pan Feng's soldiers had also broken into the city.

No matter how good Gongsun Zan was at defense, he could not cook without rice. Without sufficient troops, he had no way to mobilize more troops for defense.

The city gate was so fragile. At that time, all the money of Xianhe Town was spent on the construction of city walls, so the city gate was not that strong.

Gongsun Zan drew the sword from his waist and shouted to Zhuge Liang's troops rushing into the city gate: "Kill them!"

"Rush over!"

If Gongsun Zan was only responsible for defense, Zhuge Liang would have no way to deal with him. Even Zhuge Liang had to admire Gongsun Zan's defensive ability.

But now the city has been broken, and in a real head-on battle, Gongsun Zan is no match for Zhuge Liang. The two are simply not on the same level, and the armies under their command are not on the same level either.

The wolf among the sheep!

The soldiers under Zhuge Liang were as fierce as wolves and tigers, and they began to attack the enemy army fiercely.

The two sides just fought, and Gongsun Zan felt boundless despair!

He knew that the enemy's commander and soldiers were much stronger than him!
"stop!"

At this moment, the player from Xianhe Town finally rode over, stared at Zhuge Liang, and said calmly, "General, please don't attack. I surrender!"

He didn't want his generals and people to sacrifice in vain. The outcome was doomed to failure. What was the point of resistance?
