Chapter 333 Guangling Falls, Street Fighting!

"What did I just see? Heavy tanks? Is this a human being?"

"Brother, aren't you used to it yet? This is a game world. Ever since Mr. Guan fought with the Yellow Turban and split open the city gate with three knives, I no longer regard these civil servants and generals as human beings. They are all gods, and they are all Wenquxing and Wuquxing are as good as the modern heavy-duty synthetic brigades, and Wenchen is a supercomputer."

"Zhou Yu's nemesis: Zhang Liao, effect: 100% victory when facing Zhou Yu, no other negative effects."

"Are you polite? But I have one thing to say. This week, Zhou Yu appeared three times and was defeated by Zhang Liao twice. It seems that he still won't get any benefits this time. I feel that Zhou Yu may be stuck with Zhang Liao and he may become a demon. Bar."

"Zhang Liao is really a bit too fierce. Unlike Erye, who kills enemy generals in the midst of thousands of troops, Zhang Liao is more like a man who puts himself to death and survives. With a small number, he can make a big difference. Those soldiers are also powerful enough. Five A hundred against thirty thousand, more than four thousand were killed. If we did not focus exclusively on the shield soldiers, but killed them indiscriminately, we should have added more than two thousand to Zhou Yu's battle losses. "

"Although there are fewer kills, these shield soldiers have been killed completely. If you want to attack again, you will need to pay a higher price. It is definitely not comparable to two thousand infantry."

"No, buddy, do you really think that Zhou Yu's army of more than 100,000 people only has these 3,000 shield soldiers? Just because all the shield soldiers of this 30,000 army were killed, it doesn't mean that all the shield soldiers were killed. Please find out. "

"I have to say, Zhang Liao is awesome."

The dazzling barrages rushed through the live broadcast room quickly, like a tide, fleeting. They were all marveling at Zhang Liao's bravery and feeling pity for Zhou Yu. They all said again and again that if Zhou Yu failed again this time, , I’m afraid I won’t be able to fight back against Zhang Liao in the future.

In this offensive and defensive battle, Zhang Liao cut off the heads of nearly 3,000 shield soldiers during the siege of 30,000 Jiangdong soldiers at the cost of only 400 cavalry. At the same time, he also killed nearly a thousand infantrymen, as well as several more hidden among them. All three third-rate generals were killed by Zhang Liao with long-distance spears. The standard spear used when leaving the city was also replaced twice during the battle. Once, the spear head was so scarred that it could not be used, and once it was a second-rate spear hidden in the army. The general used a broadsword to sneak attack and chop it off.

But these 400 cavalry are all veterans who have followed Gu Rubing and have experienced hundreds of battles. They have also participated in the previous two battles with Zhou Yu and have made great achievements in combat. Elite cavalry, one for ten, this terrifying combat power , it can be seen.

As Zhang Liao drove his horse into the city gate, the heavy city gate slammed shut, blocking the incoming army from the city gate. The archers on the city gate drew their bows and nocked arrows, and fired wave after wave of bows and arrows. , falling overwhelmingly, without the protection of the shield soldiers, the infantry could only evade in panic.

Lieutenant General Zhang Liao, named Zhao Yong, was a brave man who was promoted step by step to a second-rate general. He lived up to his name. He had been with Gu Rubing since he was cleaning up the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou. In the second battle for Guangling, he was assigned as Zhang Liao's deputy general to stop Zhou Yu who was retreating.

After seeing Zhang Liao successfully enter the city, Zhao Yong no longer had any scruples. He took the lead and fired wave after wave towards the city gate. Finally, he suppressed the army at a distance of 150 meters from the city gate. Ten meters away, there was no way to move forward.

The first wave of offensive and defensive battles ended with Zhang Liao's victory. Zhou Yu's heart seemed to be cast by a shadow, and that shadow was Zhang Liao holding a yellow dragon hook and sickle. When he first met, he killed an army of 50,000 men with more than a thousand cavalry. ; Goodbye, hundreds of cavalry rushed to kill 5,000 cavalry, and only a thousand were killed; now they meet again, at the cost of 400 cavalry, a full 3,000 shield soldiers and more than a thousand infantry were exchanged.

Inside the tent, Zhou Yu's face was livid. Huang Gai looked at Zhou Yu from the side, his Adam's apple moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he still didn't say it.

"Tonight! Launch an all-out attack on all four walls!"

Zhou Yu almost roared angrily, and someone on the side spoke to dissuade him.

"General Gong Jin, now our army is facing a defeat. We cannot send out troops again. We should make repairs."

The person who spoke was a gray-haired Confucian scholar. Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Huang Gai on the side.

"Shut up, what do you know? Zhang Liao didn't have many troops, and now he has lost his elite troops. We should take advantage of this opportunity to complete our victory in one battle, capture Guangling City directly, and then wait for Liu Bei to come for reinforcements!"

The white-headed Confucian scholar was about to continue speaking, but was interrupted by Zhou Yu waving his hand.

"The letters sent to Cao Cao were like a pile of mud, without any response. In addition, we have not received any information from Cao Cao. In this case, every quarter of an hour of delay is a delay in the fighter planes, which will lead to the failure of the attack on Guangling City. ! Okay, it’s decided. Let’s launch a general attack tonight. Are the catapults here?”

"Reporting to the general, all twenty catapults have been transported outside the camp!"

Huang Gai cupped his hands and replied.

"Then follow the plan just now and launch a general attack at night. Anyone who beheads Zhang Liao will be granted the title of Marquis of ten thousand households and be rewarded with a thousand gold coins!"

"promise!"

In the camp, all the civil and military ministers took orders and left. Only the gray-haired old Confucian scholar was shaking his body. Looking at Zhou Yu who was looking down at the map, he shook his head helplessly.

He was the military advisor for this time. Although he was in name only, he knew a little about everything. In the morning, Sun Jian sent someone to deliver a letter in an urgent manner, which was about Liu Biao's Jingzhou army attacking Yuzhang County and Lujiang County, and a large group of cavalry entering Jiujiang County. There were probably tens of thousands of cavalry, with flags fluttering, all of which were Gu Rubing's Qingzhou army.

Although Sun Jian did not ask Zhou Yu to return to Jiangdong, in this situation, Guangling City could not be taken in a short time. Returning to Jiangdong, encircling and killing the cavalry in Yangzhou, and then severely damaging the Jingzhou army in one fell swoop, and taking Jingzhou, relying on the wealth and vast land of Jingzhou and Yangzhou, it was the best choice to fight a protracted war with Gu Rubing.

But unfortunately, no one could listen to his words as a military advisor in name only. The old scholar sighed, walked out of the tent alone, returned to his tent, and quietly waited for the result of the war.

"Liu Biao has launched a full-scale attack on Yangzhou, and Master Zhang San has also brought the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun to Jiujiang County. Although there has been no substantial damage to Yangzhou, with the remaining troops of Sun Menghu, I am afraid that he will not be able to stop Master Zhang San and the army of Jingzhou. Losing the city is a matter of time. It depends on how Sun Menghu breaks the situation."

"Break the situation? I think it's difficult. If Liu Zhongtian doesn't join the battle, then Sun Menghu and Cao Zhonger may still win by defeating the majority with fewer troops. Now Sun Menghu has been dragged into the quagmire. There is a dispute over Guangling in the north, and the three armies of Yuzhang, Lujiang, and Jiujiang in the west. At the same time, he has to resist the invasion of Japanese pirates from outside the region. Where can he mobilize troops? Although Cao Zhonger has a strong army, most of them have been sent to guard the county city. Only a few can be mobilized. Even these 50,000 people are temporarily recruited by the Imperial Guards to make up the number. There is no chance to break the deadlock. "

"I think so too. The combat effectiveness of Liu Caoxie's troops is too strong. The attack power of Cao Zhonger and Sun Menghu's troops is not comparable to that of Liu Caoxie. It must be said that Liu Caoxie has truly achieved the hero from the humble beginnings."

"The alliance between Cao Zhonger and Sun Menghu is really useless. There is no information between them, no tacit understanding, and average combat effectiveness. It can only be said that it is a plan to let Liu Caoxie win. "

"Liu Caoxie is A perfect template for a savior protagonist. His ancestors were princes. Although they are in decline, they still have great righteousness in their hearts. Since he was born, he has never been defeated and has been advancing triumphantly until now he has become the largest vassal. Now he has to eliminate the only two vassal who can threaten him. It can only be said that Liu Caoxie is the most suitable protagonist for a savior novel. "

"Do you really think that Zhang Liao's less than 10,000 people can withstand the attack of Zhou Yu's nearly 130,000 troops? In addition, Zhou Yu also dispatched 20 siege vehicles and launched attacks from all sides at the same time. Not to mention anything else, this army of more than 100,000 people can kill Zhang Liao and his men even if they are piled up with people. "

"+1, I feel that they are a little The mindset is set. Zhang Liao won the first two times, but he may not win this time. The more troops there are, the smaller the difference in combat effectiveness between the troops. Moreover, it is a siege, so Zhang Liao's best cavalry charge is useless. I think Zhou Yu can win this time. Not only can he win, but the great victory here will also radiate to other areas. In this way, with two-line operations and a battlefield stretching for thousands of miles, Liu Caoxie can't hold on for too long, right? "

At night, those netizens who were watching the live broadcast after work conducted a thorough analysis of the current situation. Excluding those subjective influences, the result of this analysis is that most people still tend to think that Zhou Yu can win. After all, attack and defense are not as good as encounter battles.

Before the second siege, Zhang Liao gathered all the residents of Guangling City in the Guangling City Governor's Mansion. The entire Guangling City was deserted. This was the second line of defense set up by Zhang Liao. In the street battle, the biggest difference in the number of people between the two sides would no longer exist. Relying on the well-connected alleys, Zhang Liao was ready to fight Zhou Yu to the death here!

Ten thousand people, if they were considered cavalry, then Zhang Liao was confident that he could lead them to fight seven in and seven out, but at present, he had less than ten thousand troops, only two thousand cavalry, and the last time he went out of the city to charge, he lost more than 400 cavalry, and now there are only 1,600 cavalry, and 2,000 archers, and the rest are infantry.

Moving the battlefield from the city wall to the alley was the only way Zhang Liao could think of to hold on until the support arrived. Two days ago, he received a letter sent in by desperately breaking through the siege. The letter was written by Gu Rubing himself. The letter was very simple, but only a few words, but it made Zhang Liao determined to defend Guangling City to the death.

At night, hundreds of thousands of troops launched an attack from the four walls at the same time. The dark army attacked forward like a dark cloud. Zhang Liao stood on the southern wall, holding his yellow dragon hook sickle, with the same momentum as before, one man guarding the pass, ten thousand men could not open it.

With less than 10,000 men, they defended the city against an army of nearly 130,000. Compared with the previous two battles where the few defeated the many, they were even better.

"Soldiers, the rats from Jiangdong are invading, what should we do?"

Zhang Liao's deep voice echoed out, sweeping across the front wall.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The defending soldiers roared angrily. Zhang Liao took the 200-stone bow handed over by the deputy general Zhao Yong, drew the bow and aimed at the star flag of the Jiangdong Xiandeng Camp. He shot an arrow, which crossed the sky and made a series of sounds of breaking through the air, breaking the flagpole of the Xiandeng Camp.

This arrow boosted the morale of the soldiers defending the city. They also drew their bows and fired at the advancing army. However, under the cover of the shield soldiers, the arrows rained down one after another without any impact on their advancement.

Zhou Yu stood in the rear, observing the advance of the army. When the army was only 200 meters away from the city gate, Zhou Yu gave the order.

"Shoot!"

With Zhou Yu's order, twenty flaming boulders were thrown high and rushed towards the city gate unstoppably. Zhang Liao no longer leaned on his sword, but swung his sword. He chopped out with the ring-shadow hook sickle sword method. Three swords smashed one of the flaming boulders. Zhang Liao had the intention but no power, and could only smash one piece.

The other boulders bombarded the city wall, and the boulders flew. The tung oil wrapped on the boulders splashed all over the city wall, and a raging fire ignited in an instant.

"Release!"

Twenty boulders flew up again and blasted towards the city wall. Zhou Yu actually brought all twenty catapults to the southern city wall where Zhang Liao was stationed in order to break through Guangling City.

Looking at the burning fire, Zhang Liao knew that it was useless to defend the city gate, so he immediately gave an order.

"Pass my order, everyone retreat from the city wall, follow the established strategy, pull the battle line into the alley, and defend every alley! It only takes one day, and one day later, the lord's reinforcements will arrive!"

"Pass the general's order, retreat from the city wall, follow the established strategy, retreat to the streets and alleys!"

"Pass the general's order, retreat from the city wall, follow the established strategy, retreat to the streets and alleys!"

"Pass the general's order, retreat from the city wall..."

...

As a result, the southern city gate became the first gate to be broken into. After the city gate was opened, there was no one on the main street. If Zhou Yu had a God's perspective, he would definitely not let the army enter the city.

Because in the city, except for the main roads, other streets and alleys were already full of ambushed soldiers. On the four auxiliary roads except the main roads, 400 cavalrymen were waiting in full battle array. They were the first line of defense to disperse the army entering the city.

It was called the first line of defense, but in fact it was more like a death squad, using their own lives to disperse the enemy camp, forcing them to enter the streets and alleys, and establish conditions for street fighting for their comrades.

Deputy General Zhao Yong was leading a team of cavalry at this moment. The army entering Guangling City had already appeared in front of him, but he was not in a hurry. After the enemy army gathered to a certain extent, he slowly walked out of the cavalry formation.

The best charging distance for cavalry is 1,500 meters, but now there are not so many requirements. Zhao Yong took off his armor and held a long spear, which was given to him by Zhang Liao before he went down the city wall.

Zhao Yong held the long spear and rode his horse to charge, ready to die.

Behind him, 400 cavalrymen also raised their spears and followed Zhao Yong to charge!
