Three Kingdoms: Many children bring good fortune, cut off the Hu Zou family at the beginning

The next morning.

Sun Xia led more than 10,000 Yellow Turban troops to Champion County.

At this moment, Sun Xia's face sank like water.

This morning, he gathered a lot of remnants.

Knowing that last night's five thousand Nanyang County reinforcements were attacked, and even the champion county was taken by the other party, I was angry in my heart!

"Report!" There are only residents left in Champion County, and there are no enemy troops!".

Sun Xia had already guessed this result, and with a wave of his hand, he led part of the army into Champion County, while the rest of the people camped around Champion County.

The champion county is not large and cannot accommodate more than 10,000 people.

Champion County County Yanai.

There was a bloodstain, and the commander stationed there died in the hall.

Sun Xia was silent the whole time, waiting for the soldiers to clean up the corpses, and then sat in the main seat.

Behind him were a group of petty leaders, including the two commanders who had survived last night.

"You two, tell me about last night. "

The commander who was lucky enough to survive hurriedly knelt down and wept bitterly: "My lord, you have to be the master for us, the enemy has cavalry, and it is a sneak attack, we have suffered heavy losses, and the other three compatriots have died on the battlefield. "

"After all the hard work, after arriving in Champion County, the army was exhausted, and was ready to take a good rest, countless enemies poured out from Champion County, killing people when they saw them, if we didn't run fast, we wouldn't be able to see adults today!".

The leaders who had been following Sun Xia had solemn faces.

The other party is too cunning.

Every step is like a design, and the 5,000 reinforcements are directly defeated!

Sun Xia's face was frosty: "How many people are there on the other side?"

The crying stopped abruptly.

Cold sweat appeared densely on the forehead of the thousand-commander: "Adult, villain, I... I don't know! It's so dark, I can't count it!".

"Waste!".

Sun Xia finally couldn't hold it anymore!

Even if you lose the battle, you don't even know how many people on the other side are, why did such a fool appear in their army?

"You're 5,000 men! Now, about 2,000 men, you've lost half of your men and horses!"

"Rice bucket! What's the use of you living! Come on, drag me out and cut it down!".

Two guards walked briskly from outside and carried the commander away.

The commander panicked, and kept shouting for mercy.

Soon, there was a scream outside the door.

Sun Xia's gaze then fell on the last thousand-commander: "Don't you have anything to say?"

"My lord, the number of cavalry on the other side is only 400 horses, and it is entirely with the help of night that the sneak attack can be successful, as for the enemy army in Champion County, there are no more than 1,000! Although the number is small, they are all elite soldiers!".

"Oh?" Sun Xia's eyes lit up, "Since you know, why didn't you say it just now, that person should have been with you just now, right?"

"That man is simple-minded, with well-developed limbs, and if he hadn't had the opportunity, he wouldn't have been able to sit in the position of commander of a thousand!

"Okay, the 2,000 reinforcements in Nanyang County are led by you, as the vanguard!".

"Yes!".

The commander was overjoyed, he didn't expect that after this incident, he would be promoted!

It is different from the repressed champion county magistrate.

Lixian County Yanei.

Tian Zhen is reporting on yesterday's battle situation.

"Yesterday, our army broke the champion county, beheaded more than 600 enemies, captured more than 300 people, and then blocked the reinforcements of Nanyang County, killing more than 400 enemies. "

That's right, it was the Modao Army and the Black Tiger Battalion led by Tian Zhen who were in Champion County last night.

During the day, after Su Huan noticed the movement of reinforcements, he found that the other party could not catch up with the champion camp before dark, so he sent someone to ask Tian Zhen to lead the troops to make a detour to Champion County.

conquered the county seat, and came out to wait for the rabbit.

"Good!".

Kuai Yue was overjoyed in his heart, "After last night's surprise attack, the enemy has lost nearly 3,000 troops! Now there are only 12,000 in total, and now that the enemy's morale is low, our hope of victory in this battle is very great!"

Last night, they also had attrition on their side, most of whom were killed in the attack on Champion County.

At this moment, the defenders of Lixian County are as high as more than 6,000 people, and in the face of these 10,000 enemy troops, the pressure is much less.

"The Yellow Turban Army suffered heavy losses yesterday, and tomorrow's attack will inevitably be very fierce!"

Su Huan's tone was low, "The ancients: One blow, then decline, three and exhaustion! We must not only withstand the enemy's first attack on the city, but also achieve a big victory, so that the opponent's subsequent attack will not pose too much threat to us!"

Tian Zhen took the initiative to ask: "My lord, the last general is willing to lead the Modao army to guard the front line! The Xuanjia Iron Cavalry is too disadvantaged to fight a defensive battle, it is not cost-effective, you can let them out." "

Su Huan didn't answer, but asked Kuai Yue on the side, "How are the things I asked you to develop are prepared?"

In winter, in order to consolidate the defense of Qingfeng Village, Su Huan hand-painted a sharp weapon by himself and handed it over to Kuai Yue to build.

"It has been successfully developed, but only five have been completed so far!".

"Let's go, let's see!".

Su Huan's eyes lit up, after this drawing was handed over to Kuai Yue, he didn't ask again, he didn't expect the other party to really make it.

Under the leadership of Kuai Yue, several people came to the rear position of Lixian.

This is where the warehouse is located.

At this moment, there are five big guys placed at the door of the warehouse.

After seeing these five tools, Tian Zhen subconsciously spoke: "Catapult?".

"That's right!".

Su Huan grinned.

In fact, catapults were more common during the Three Kingdoms period.

Most of them were in the hands of the imperial court and local warlords, and almost none of the bandits and bandits like them and the Yellow Turbans had no catapults.

Su Huan also hand-drew it according to his own understanding.

The structure of the catapult in front of it is very simple, a huge lever, the long end is a leather holster or wooden basket loaded with stones, and the short end is tied with dozens of ropes.

When the order was given, dozens of people pulled the rope at the same time, using the principle of levers to throw the stones.

This type of catapult is the simplest and most basic one.

Don't look simple and laborious, but the lethality is not ambiguous.

"Lord, with the help of this catapult, our odds of victory can be increased by half percent!"

Tian Zhen's eyes lit up.

Five hundred longbowmen with five catapults, tomorrow before the Yellow Turban soldiers rush to the gate of Lixian, it will cause a large number of attrition!

It also reduces enemy morale.

"Lord, in fact, as long as the people are in place, one night is enough time to build a few catapults to come out!"

Kuai Yue took the initiative to say.

He had forgotten about the catapult before.

They were under the impression that catapults were useful only during the siege of the city.

Moved to Lixian County, it was also to prepare for the attack on Nanyang County in the future!

"Okay, you build as many catapults as you can, and if you don't have enough manpower, you can choose from the soldiers!"
