Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 614 Using Soldiers Like Gods?

Liu Ye's injury was not serious, it was just that the sharp arrow scratched his arm, and it seemed that he was bleeding profusely, but as long as the blood was stopped and bandaged, he could recover after a few days of rest.

Generally, such minor injuries would not make a true warrior flinch.Although Liu Ye is wearing a crimson purple Confucian robe today, he wears a Wubian on his head, a fish-scale black armor, and a knife hanging from his waist. This attire shows his literary heart and courage, so naturally he will not be injured because of this little injury. Then he retreated to the city.

At this time, he was watching Cao Jun's offensive with a sad face, and even the pain on his arm seemed to be unable to make him frown like a river.Luo Lin couldn't help feeling strange, and asked, "Master Liu, Cao's army seems to be in a turbulent state, but the Lujiang River is well-defended, and Master Liu's improved Thunderbolt Chariot is three hundred paces away from the enemy. Even after a year or so, Cao's army cannot break through Chengchi, why are you so worried?"

Speaking of this, Luo Lin couldn't help but glanced at the catapult within ten steps of him.Because after being improved by Liu Ye, the power increased greatly, so the soldiers in Lujiang called these catapults Thunderbolt Chariots-this is a magic weapon against Cao Jun. , it is necessary to choose stone bullets with different strings and different weights.Therefore, as long as the operator knows a little basics of arithmetic, it can be much more accurate than ordinary hair stone carts.

For stones that are already very powerful, precision often represents huge lethality.

Just as Luo Lin was bandaging the sterilized sackcloth on Liu Ye's arm, the soldiers of the Perak Chariot shouted: "Get up!" Immediately afterwards, a strange sound of wind came from the ears, making people shrink back subconsciously. Shrink your neck.Then, the soldiers on the scene raised their heads at the same time, and saw three or four huge rocks of different shapes flying in mid-air, drawing several dangerous and beautiful arcs, and smashing towards Cao Junying.Three of them missed the target, but one of them accurately hit a fifteen-foot-tall archery tower in Cao Yingzhong.

The soldiers on the archery tower yelled in fear, and some jumped directly from the tower before it fell to the ground, and the shrill shouts spread throughout Cao Jun's camp.However, the soldiers who had just thrown stones on the city wall burst into applause.

However, even the warm applause just now did not make Liu Ye's brows relax.Luo Lin wanted to speak, but when he saw the excited soldiers around him, he suddenly thought of something, and said to the crowd: "Everyone should disperse and defend the city with all your heart. Don't let Cao Jun keep an eye on this place, this is protection. Master Liu's best way."

When all the soldiers heard this, they all felt reasonable.A pile on the top of the city really became the target of Cao Bing's arrows.After they all nodded to Liu Ye to show their respect and concern, they dispersed.

It was only then that Liu Ye really noticed Luo Lin. He rubbed his bandaged arm and said to Luo Lin, "Doctor Luo is also dabbling in military matters?"

"I don't dare to do it. It's just that the soldiers are dangerous and the war is fierce. One more day of fighting will result in hundreds of wounded soldiers. As a doctor, Luo Lin doesn't want to see such a scene after all." Luo Lin blurted out the reason, but wanted to After thinking about it, he added another sentence: "I heard that Cao Cao was tyrannical and brutal, and the slaughter was merciless. I am afraid that once the city is destroyed..."

Only then was Liu Ye slightly moved, and showed a hint of affection towards Luo Lin: "Doctor Luo really treats people with sincerity, and he has a moment of desire to help the world. If the doctor Duanmu was upright before, I'm afraid he would have run away long ago."

"Then, according to Master Liu, can we still win this battle? After all, even if Cao Cao is helpless, there is still an army of the Han Dynasty behind him..." Luo Lin's performance at this time was completely a medical craftsman with psychological entanglement.Wanting to cure diseases and save lives, but also afraid of being buried here, people can't raise a trace of doubt.

But before Luo Lin finished speaking, Liu Ye suddenly interrupted, sighing sincerely: "Doctor Luo is still planning to escape from Lujiang."

Luo Lin's expression changed suddenly, and he hurriedly asked, "Master Liu, do you think so too?"

Liu Ye looked around and saw that no one else could hear their conversation, so he lowered his voice and said, "Although Cao Mengde was a murderer, he used soldiers like a god. The thunderbolt chariot below stopped Cao's soldiers for a while. However, the city will inevitably be destroyed in the end. The Luo doctor who is hanging the pot to help the world is the one who is generous and compassionate. Although I think that Cao Mengde will not dare to slaughter the city in front of His Majesty this time to vent his anger, there is no guarantee that things will happen."

"But, but, this Lujiang City seems to be as stable as Mount Tai. If His Majesty recruits reinforcements to rescue us, we may have a chance of surviving."

Liu Ye smiled wryly, and of course he would not say too much to Luo Lin, a person who met once, and could only say concisely: "Luo Yizheng, the Majesty you speak of is not the co-lord of the world after all, and more He is not the emperor that the people want. Moreover, Cao Mengde really uses his troops like a god..."

Liu Ye's previous sentence made Luo Lin feel very happy.It was obvious that Liu Ye was also opposed to Yuan Shu's proclaiming himself emperor.This is a decisive factor for his future tasks.But for the next sentence, Luo Lin tried hard to think about it, and didn't understand why Liu Ye admired Cao Cao so much.

In Luo Lin's view, although Cao Cao's siege tactics were ingenious, the offensive was continuous, and he generally had an advantage in morale.But it doesn't count as using soldiers like a god. It can only be said that this is like the behavior of a general, and it has not reached the level of an unprepared and invincible unparalleled commander.On the contrary, Liu Ye's thunderbolt car shined in this offensive and defensive battle.

However, when Luo Lin took another look at Liu Ye's hesitant expression, he had a strong intuition, knowing that Liu Ye wasn't trying to scare people: the day when Lujiang River will be destroyed may really be just around the corner.

Because Luo Lin had some supporting evidence, thanks to his status as Jin Yiwei, he knew that there would be no reinforcements in Lujiang in the short term.Because Yuan Shu in Shouchun City made another moth, under the instigation of Zhang Jiong, the national teacher, Yuan Shu conscripted the people of Jiujiang to dig soil and build mountains, intending to pile up a peak no less than Mount Tai on Bagong Mountain, and then held a ceremony on the mountain. Fengchan Grand Ceremony.

According to Zhang Jiong, the chaos in the world and the mob of monsters are due to Shouchun's lack of dragon energy.Right now, there is no hope for enshrining Zen on Mount Tai, but if Yuan Shu can enshrine Zen on Bagong Mountain and establish a communication link with the heavens in advance, then the heavens will surely send down auspicious auspiciousness, sweep away evildoers, and stop fighting.

The two armies of Li Lan and Le Jiu, as well as Yuan Shu's main force, were recruiting and arresting strong men in Jiujiang County.It is possible to fill Bagong Mountain to the height of Mount Tai. I am afraid that this project will not be realized in a hundred years.Therefore, in addition to catching strong men, Yuan Shu's army had to go hungry to dig soil and build mountains when necessary.

This news is obviously bad news for Lujiang.The enemy army was so aggressive that even if Cao Bing couldn't cross the moat temporarily, the stones would be polished one day, and the moat would obviously be filled up by Cao Bing.However, Shouchun's big soldier was unable to come to the rescue because of digging the earth, which is really a great tragedy.Liu Ye has a pessimistic attitude towards Lujiang, which is really expected.

But this is obviously not the whole reason why Liu Ye is worried. Luo Lin can hear that Liu Ye's judgment is that Lujiang can be breached by Cao Jun in a few days... But judging from the current situation, Lujiang can obviously support it for several months.

Since it is not that there is no reinforcements, then where is the magic of Cao Cao's use of troops, so that Liu Ye sadly believes that Lujiang will be breached within a few days?

While treating the wounded soldiers, Luo Lin thought hard about this problem.However, Liu Ye obviously wouldn't reveal anything more, so Luo Lin had no choice but to continue with his work, so as not to make Liu Ye suspicious.But when he was bandaging a wounded soldier in his hand, he heard the wounded soldier complaining: "Master Liu is really strange. A few days ago, we asked us to call in carpenters. Why are we calling in boats and boatmen these days?" ?”

"Boat?" Luo Lin was startled suddenly, the word pierced his chaotic mind like a sharp sword, making him run behind the battlements like locusts regardless of Cao Bing's arrows, and stared at the upper reaches of the moat.

The Lujiang River is adjacent to the Huai River, and the moat outside the city is surrounded by diverted Huai River.Now in April and May, it is the season when the Huai River is rising and the water volume is abundant.If Cao Cao's continuous siege is just a cover, but in fact they are besieging the Huai River upstream, and when the Huai River breaks its embankment, the flood will pour back into the Lujiang River, then what is impenetrable, high walls and thick walls are all jokes!
Water and fire are ruthless, how can manpower compete with the power of mountains and rivers?

For a moment, Luo Lin's hands and feet were cold, and he suddenly stood motionless on the top of the wall like a fool.It wasn't until a soldier threw him down suddenly that he was awakened by the impact.Then, he saw the soldier who had saved him just now, with an arrow sticking out of his cheek, and blood was gurgling down Luo Lin's face, warm but also desolate...
