Chapter 914: Guo Yan's Counterattack (Ask for Subscription)
In order to prevent Ma Teng and Han Sui from exploring the reality of the thunderbolt in the Bingzhou army, the thunderbolt stopped at a distance of one hundred and forty steps from Chang'an, and the thunderbolt riders were busy in an orderly manner.
The Perak riders in the state army are all trained, and they have a great improvement in the head, which is far from being comparable to the Thunderbolt drivers under Ma Teng.
Not only the east gate, but also outside the south gate and the west gate, there were also hundreds of thunderbolts, and three hundred thunderbolts were used to attack the city, which shows that Lu Bu attached great importance to this battle.
There were 20,000 defenders in the city, but they had to guard the eight gates of Chang'an, although there were no enemy troops in the north of the city, and Li Dao and others did not dare to relax their vigilance.
When the 300 thunderbolts began to roar, in the eyes of the defenders, it was a dense boulder roaring, and this power alone made many defenders timid.
There is no doubt that the city of Chang'an is strong, and even if a boulder is smashed on it, the defenders will not feel much movement.
At this time, the main task of the army outside the city is to fill in the moat, and only by filling the moat can they have a chance to fight the defenders.
Watching the soldiers of Bingzhou throw sandbags into the water in an orderly manner, Guo Yan's brows were tightly locked, and the action of the Bingzhou army filling the moat seemed to be slow, but it was actually extremely fast, each soldier was very clear about the next move, and there would be no collision of soldiers, and with the suppression of the thunderbolt, it was difficult for the defenders to cause damage to the Bingzhou army, and the occasional counterattack of the archers could not reach such a long distance.
The defenders could only watch the army outside the city busy.
After a day's siege, there were constant screams in the city, mostly for the soldiers who did not die after the thunderbolt was hit.
As for letting the doctors save these soldiers, they don't have so much energy, and the doctors in the army are very precious, and only the generals above the captain have the opportunity to be treated after being injured, and ordinary soldiers, who will care about their life or death.
As night fell, the thunderbolts outside the city stopped attacking, and the defenders breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of this.
In Chang'an City, Li Dao worried: "According to the current situation, it only takes ten days for the enemy army to fill in the moat. ”
"But the Marquis of Jin categorically rejected our arguments, although there are 20,000 troops in the city, there are still some shortcomings." Guo Yan said that he originally had the attitude of giving himself a try to Lu Bu to see if Lu Bu's intention to attack Chang'an was resolute.
"General Li Meng guards the east gate, is there any difficulty?" Li Wei asked.
Li Meng said: "General Li rest assured, General Ben guards the east gate, and it will be difficult for the Bingzhou army to enter an inch, isn't it just a small thunderbolt car, after the moat is filled, the Bingzhou army can still use the thunderbolt car to attack the city, and then the general will give the Bingzhou army a hard lesson." ”
Li Dao nodded, Li Meng is average in martial arts, but when it comes to defending the city, Li Meng is definitely a very strategic general.
"Can the cavalry in General Lee's hands be used?" Guo Yan asked suddenly.
Li Dao said vigilantly: "What is General Guo going to do?" ”
"General Li, the enemy army outside the city is so arrogant, there are Lieyang archers in the east of the city, and there are flying horses in the south of the city, but although the cavalry in Ma Teng and Han Sui's army has 3,000 people, it is not a cause for concern, if the enemy army is allowed to go down like this, it will be extremely unfavorable to the morale of our army, you might as well send elite cavalry to fight, if you can burn the thunderbolt in Ma Teng's army in one fell swoop or can defeat the cavalry in Ma Teng's army, it can greatly improve the morale of our army." Guo explained.
Li Dao was silent for a moment and then said, "Tomorrow depends on the opportunity." "The cavalry under his command was the most elite cavalry under Dong Zhuo at the beginning, the Flying Bear Army, the Flying Bear Army had a high status in Dong Zhuo's army, and it was deeply relied on by Dong Zhuo.
After Dong Zhuo's death, Li Dao and Guo Yan led the Flying Bear Army to flee Chang'an, and the Flying Bear Army became Li Dao and Guo Yan's subordinates.
However, the Flying Bear Army in Guo Yan's hands is full of seventy percent, which is not comparable to Li Dao, and when the two fight, they rarely use the Flying Bear Army.
After arranging something in the army, everyone left with a heavy heart.
After reading the news from the city, Lu Bu asked, "Wenhe, when will that matter be feasible?" ”
"Lord, Li Wei and Guo Yan are not ordinary people, especially Guo Yan, who is quite strategic, if it is at such a time, it will not play a big role, maybe it will be recognized by Guo Yan, once the situation in the city is critical, this plan may be able to knock on the gate of Chang'an." Jia Xu said in a low voice.
Lu Bu said with a smile: "Li Dao and Guo Yan met Wenhe, they are really unlucky. ”
"Lord, although there is a contradiction between Li Dao and Guo Yan, my subordinates think of a more suitable candidate." Jia Xu said.
"Who?" Lu Bu wondered.
After Jia Xu whispered to him, Lu Bu looked happy, "Just look at the timing of this matter." ”
Chang'an City is heavily guarded, but it does not prevent the Flying Eagle soldiers from inquiring about the news, even before Lu Bu attacked Chang'an, there were Flying Eagle soldiers mixed into the army of Chang'an, at this time, the Xiliang Army, as long as you have money, you can enter, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can have an official position.
The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, the army outside the city once again took up its position, and the thunderbolt slowly moved in the direction of the city wall.
Since the thunderbolt began to attack the city to the present, the defenders in the city have not moved at all, and the defenders outside the city are a little lax, Ma Dai, who is responsible for protecting the thunderbolts, has been watching the battlefield for a long time, and from time to time you can hear the movement of the boulder hitting the city wall, as for the defenders in the city will raid at this time, in his opinion, it is completely an act of looking for death, in order to show fairness, this time the three thousand cavalry, Ma Teng and Han Sui each gave half.
Just when the Thunderbolt soldiers were also a little lazy, the north gate suddenly opened, and the first person was Yang Ding, the general under Guo Yan, and two thousand flying bear troops came out of the city and came in the direction of the Thunderbolt.
The soldiers who controlled the thunderbolt were a little panicked, they controlled the thunderbolt, in order to reduce the burden on their bodies, they were able to make the boulder shoot farther, and they didn't even wear armor, which was learned from the thunderbolt riders in the state army, in this case, if they encountered the cavalry that charged, their fate can be imagined, and some of the soldiers next to the thunderbolt were even ready to flee at any time, and next to them, there were also 3,000 cavalry.
However, the 3,000 cavalry did not expect the defenders to dare to go out of the city to fight at such a time, and some of the cavalry were even discussing what the evening meal would be like.
