The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms
Page 578
Looking at the manpower on his side, Guan Yu, who was standing under the city and watching the battle closely, had not yet started to attack the tower, and began to feel a little anxious.
As the saying goes, there is a high ground for morale, once you work hard, it will decline again, and it will be exhausted after three times.
If you don't gain an advantage in the first time, it will be difficult to gain an advantage in the next offense.
Guan Yu just wanted to give himself the advantage in the first place and make the enemy feel afraid. Only when the enemy is afraid and timid, can they have a chance to enter the city.
With Guan Yu's order, those people and horses have a backbone, especially under Guan Yu's reward, a few courageous and ambitious people rushed forward even harder.
As the old saying goes, there must be brave men under great rewards.
If the money spreads, those men and horses will have more energy to charge forward.
Originally, no one dared to charge up the tower, and there were a few people who were not afraid of death, and went all the way up the ladder.
With the shooters behind to check, sometimes there are fewer people defending on the tower.
So it is not difficult to rush up the tower.
Once someone kills the city tower, this state will be different.
Especially, if the person's own martial arts are not bad, it is very likely to cause a chain reaction when he goes up the tower.
Because the aisle on the tower is not considered wide, after someone climbs the tower, it will immediately attract a few guards from the surrounding area, and then fight together.
Once a few guards are killed and there are not enough troops to replenish them, follow-up troops can pass through this opening and climb up continuously.
This will make the gap bigger and require more people to stop it.
It also makes the enemy under the defense weaker.
More and more people climbed the tower.
With the first person, there will be a second person and a third person, so the city cannot be defended.
Standing on the tower, Gan Ning was paying close attention to the tower all the time. Whenever he saw something was wrong, he immediately ordered the people around him to stop it and increase their protection.
After killing and retreating several waves of troops, Guan Yu's attack was barely blocked.
However, on Guan Yu's side, this attack is imperative. Even if it fails a few times and loses nearly ten thousand horses, Guan Yu has no plan to retreat here.
Instead, immediately add more manpower and rush forward.
"Where is Zhang Xiu?"
"The end is here."
"I saw a weak point at the northern corner of the completed area. There are relatively few defenders here. It may also be because our trebuchet broke the tower here. There should be a high chance of charging from here. It can break down the tower."
Guan Yu has been paying attention to the battlefield, not only knows everything about the battlefield, but also knows everything about it, completely in his eyes.
After a few rounds of attack just now, Guan Yu has naturally seen clearly the weak point of Wancheng's defense.
After seizing the opportunity at this moment, he will seize it.
Immediately gave Zhang Xiu an order.
"The last general takes the order, so let's lead people to charge!"
After Zhang Xiu understood Guan Yu's meaning, without waiting for Guan Yu to speak, he immediately offered to lead a charge in person, climb the tower, and take down the city.
For two months, Guan Yu suppressed it for too long, and finally couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay, I'll give you 2000 people, be sure to conquer the city tower and take down Wancheng!"
Afterwards, Zhang Xiu quickly got on his horse and led away.
Chapter 1000 Two hundred and forty-one
Wancheng's defense is indeed difficult to do.
Because it was completely bombed by Guan Yu's catapult at the beginning.
Although the accuracy of these catapults under Guan Yu's hands is not very good.
But after all, a large part of the projection of a large number of stones is still projected on the city wall.
Even if the city wall is strong, no matter how strong the city wall is in this era, it will not go anywhere.
After being hit by a weapon such as a catapult, the tower will immediately be incomplete.
Even if it is not incomplete, it will be piled up by a large number of stones, causing the corridor to be blocked.
Make the soldiers and horses on the tower unable to stand and pass normally.
It also makes it easier for the attacking enemy troops to attack the tower.
It is difficult to clear these stones in a short time.
After all, the enemy army still has archers shooting on the tower. If there is a little carelessness, the soldiers who come and go on the tower will be shot to death.
This has led to a situation where the battle is not one-sided.
Instead, there was a stalemate between the two sides.
Seeing this situation, Guan Yu has already personally stepped onto the battlefield and ordered the army to charge one after another.
The function of the ladder is not to really attack the city.
But to contain the defenders on the tower.
The main force of the real siege is these people who are attacking the city gate.
They kept hitting the city gates with their ramming carts.
Even if the city gate is made of iron parts, it can't withstand the constant impact of the city rush car.
After dozens of hits, it will inevitably collapse and fall down.
In the corridor leading to the inner city, although Gan Ning had already ordered people to pile up all kinds of stones to block the city gate to prevent the enemy from entering.
But tens of thousands of horses are scattered outside the city, and it is not difficult to transport away some rocks.
It's just a matter of time.
As long as you persist for an hour or two, once the city gate is broken, Wancheng will soon turn into a close combat.
At that time, the party with more people will definitely have an advantage.
After these several rounds of charging, the city gate has been broken.
It's just that the stones piled up on the aisle of the city gate still need a certain amount of time to be transported.
But even if these stones were moved, Gan Ning's army in the inner city was bound to fight Guan Yu's army outside the city at the gate.
It is not so easy to really enter the city.
The battle is still going on.
On the other side, Zhang Xiu did approach the corner one after another with 3000 soldiers and horses.
This is where Guan Yu ordered him to attack.
It is also the key point for them to take down Wancheng this time.
"Everyone, listen to my orders, go!"
At this moment, because of Guan Yu's appearance, Gan Ning and most of the enemy troops on the tower had already focused on Guan Yu's main army.
The 3000-man squad that was approaching the periphery had been ignored.
3000 people are inconspicuous on a battlefield with an entire army of 5.
Charge forward, but it's just like an ordinary siege troop.
Zhang Xiu gave an order.
I am not idle either.
Instead, he took the lead and rushed forward with these soldiers, intending to personally lead people to attack the tower.
As long as he got to the tower, he would be able to lead these soldiers to the tower and kill all the defenders on the tower.
In this way, the attack on the tower and the attack below the city are coordinated.
Even if the defenders in the city are extremely brave, they can only defend one place.
This Wancheng is equivalent to being beaten down.
Thinking about it, but now Zhang Xiu is still leading people to charge.
The battle in Wancheng is not over yet.
This is not a long distance, but in Zhang Xiu's view, it seems a bit far away.
Every step forward is a great progress.
With a bang.
The soldiers transporting the ladders under the city tower erected the ladders high and placed them on the towers.
Immediately afterwards, soldiers who were not afraid of death rushed forward quickly.
Take a few quick steps along the ladder.
Soon climbed to the gap on the tower.
This is the place that was hit by a dozen rounds of shooting from the catapult just now.
A part of the tower collapsed.
A fault is formed.
The towers on the left and right cannot be joined together.
If the soldiers rush up from here.
You only need to deal with the enemy on one side.
Instead of being attacked from the front and back, in this way, they can concentrate on dealing with the enemy in one place when they rush to the tower to fight.
The chances of survival are greatly increased.
The possibility of taking over the city tower is even greater when the city tower is laid down.
There were a few soldiers who took the lead in charging.Zhang Xiu also stepped into the charging queue without hesitation.
He was the third to climb the ladder.
After the two people in front rushed up, they were still blocked by a few defenders of the enemy.
The log was thrown from Chen Duoli beside him.
With a bang, it hit a soldier in front of Zhang Xiu.
The soldier let out a scream.Then he fell down from the ladder, and fell heavily under the city tower, with a bang and another scream.
The fall of one person did not frighten the subsequent chargers.
On the contrary, it stimulates those who climb the ladder even more.
He quickly took two steps forward.
At this time, it was already close to the not-so-high city tower.
And he has already seen the battlements on the side, and he can directly cross the battlements and enter the tower with just one jump.
The soldier who went up ahead of Zhang Xiu also had some strength.
He jumped onto the city wall.
Immediately attracted the attention of two enemy troops.Come over to him in a hurry.
With one against two, this person forced his way through Gan Ning's hands.
The situation was opened on the tower.
But this also caught Gan Ning's attention.
Gan Ning's expression darkened, he sensed something was wrong.
He just wanted to ask Su Fei to go over and deal with these people who went up the tower.
But in a blink of an eye, Su Fei had already been dispatched to other places by him just now.
At this moment, all the soldiers and horses are on the battlefield, and there are no extra troops.
