Chapter 733: Lightning strikes Guangling County
Huai'an County was not prepared at all, there were fifteen thousand defenders inside, and now two-thirds of them were resting.
The other third were scattered over the four gates and patrolled the city.
In this way, there is no problem with the configuration at all, taking turns to rest and take turns to be on duty.
But under the organization and premeditation, without early warning, it is obviously very dangerous.
Dian Wei rushed out,
The army was divided into three, 30,000 straight to the front, and 10,000 soldiers and horses on each side to pin down the defenders on the other gates.
Thousands of horses galloped, and the surface of the earth shook, like an earthquake.
The soldiers at the head of the city saw a wave of black pressure spreading towards them, and the speed was extremely fast.
Many people panicked, and even their legs went limp.
Even more stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do.
It's not that they haven't heard of the scene of ten thousand horses storming the city, but there are not many soldiers on the city wall at this time, and the guards are only a young general with a thousand commanders.
"Shoot."
Dian Wei commanded the army to shoot directly with the upper cavalry, and the arrow array shrouded the city.
Immediately afterwards, they released arrows under the city to prevent the soldiers on the walls from counterattacking.
"Quick, attack the city gates, and knock the city gates down for me as soon as possible." Dian Wei beckoned the soldiers to attack under the city.
When they reached the bottom of the city walls and began to attack, a rushing cart was brought up from the rear.
Storming carts can hit city gates.
"Bang~"
The rush car slammed into the city gate with a loud bang echoing over the city as it was pushed by dozens of soldiers.
The charging cart slammed into the city gate, causing the defenders at the head of the city to panic.
"Quick, attack them, don't let them break through the gates."
The enemy troops are starting to pound the city gates, and they can't fight back, they are waiting for death.
The few defenders of the city tried to fight back, armed with bows and arrows and some soldiers to carry stones and rolling logs.
But as soon as they poked out of the city to attack, they were greeted by a rain of arrows.
There were thousands of soldiers under the city guarding the walls above the city gates, and the enemy would be attacked as soon as they appeared.
"Quick, inform the general, come and support, we can't stand it." The defender was in a hurry, his soldiers were running out of combat.
Some people lay under the battlements and did not dare to raise their heads, and some people ran around without their heads.
Without much combat effectiveness, the defender managed to organize a wave of attacks, but killed many enemy troops.
However, none of the soldiers in the city retreated, and continued to attack the walls in the face of the enemy's attack.
Pounding the gates, impacting...
There was a loud bang, as if it were a death knell.
At this time, the reinforcement from the city arrived, and when they arrived at the city, there was not much resistance from the city.
"Quick, attack, stop them."
A junior general commanded the army to begin a counteroffensive.
The counterattack soon began, and the arrows from the castle began to counterattack.
"Hold on, speed up the attack."
"Continue to storm the city."
Dian Wei did not stop the attack, and let the soldiers shoot directly at the defenders at the head of the city.
Although the defenders have the bonus of the city wall, they are numerous, and they are the first to take the lead, so they are not much weaker.
The soldiers did not retreat, and the soldiers who pushed the carts fell down and were replaced by others, constantly banging on the city gates.
The soldiers below attacked the men above the gates with all their might, preventing them from having a chance to throw logs and stones.
The battle was fierce because it was too concentrated under the city gates.
"Bang~"
Finally, with a loud bang, the gate was overwhelmed and collapsed after dozens of impacts.
"Kill it and empty the surrounding enemies."
The gates finally fell, and the city could be breached.
Dian Wei led his troops to kill and empty the enemy around the city gates.
After that, Dian Wei led the people to kill the other city gate, opened the city gate and walked away.
The enemy was wondering, the enemy broke through the gates, charged at the gates, and then left, without attacking and occupying the rest of the city.
However, they soon understood that as soon as Dian Wei left, Yu Ban rushed in.
Yu Ban is an infantry, and the distance is relatively far, but it can be perfectly connected.
After Dian Wei left the city, he went straight to other cities and handed over Huai'an County to Yu Ban to deal with, and Dian Wei wanted to attack and kill other counties before the enemy could react.
Dian Wei spread like locusts, and many cities could not withstand his toss at all.
Three days later, he attacked more than a dozen cities, and finally left the county town of Huaiyin with 30,000 defenders.
Dian Wei acted too fast.
Outside Huaiyin County, Dian Wei followed Yu Ban and surrounded them with a large army.
After the siege, Dian Wei stood proudly outside the city.
"Listen to the defenders in the city, you have been surrounded, and your support has been cut off, surrender early to avoid casualties." Dian Wei shouted.
In fact, Dian Wei didn't care whether they surrendered or not, but Zhang Yu didn't let them come hard, and Guo Jia had already ordered a forced landing in Huaiyin County.
In the rear, Gao Shun had already taken over many county seats, and then arranged defenses.
In addition, Guo Jia asked Gao Shun to tidy up and drive directly to the border, preparing to block the enemy's army at the border.
Gao Shun's 50,000 people, in Rang Dian Wei sent 20,000 cavalry to assist, was completely able to block the enemy's onslaught.
Not long after the siege of Huaiyin County, Guo Jia had also arrived, and he would personally command.
Guo Jia was not in a hurry to attack and ordered the army to surround it.
The defenders of the city have become lonely, and it is only a matter of time before they make a forced landing.
"Military division, simply storm and guarantee to break through the city within three days." Dian Wei said.
Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Wait until they are desperate before attacking." Now that it is surrounded, it is impossible to run. ”
Guo Jia didn't pay attention to this, they couldn't run at all.
After the siege, Guo Jia ordered the troops to stay still, but put enough pressure on the defenders in the city.
At the same time, Guo Jia began to arrange the defense of the front line.
The main northwest edge is the direction where Xiapi City is located.
On the third day of Jiangdong's attack, Xiapi shook, Lu Bu was furious, and Chen Gong also knew that something bad was going to happen.
Zhang Yu took the lead in attacking, which really surprised them.
Lu Bu was immediately furious and summoned several of his generals.
"I'm going to send troops to destroy Zhang Yu." Lu Bu said.
"General, don't be impulsive." Chen Gong came out to stop Lu Bu and said: "Zhang Yu launched an attack at this time, the situation is already clear, it must be Cao Cao and Yuan Shao who are also going to use troops against us, they are the great enemy." ”
Xuzhou is surrounded by enemies on three sides, and the rear on three sides, Zhang Yu attacked Lu Bu's rear, if Lu Bu returned to attack Zhang Yu, then the other two directions would become the rear, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao would take the opportunity to kill them.
Lu Bu felt deceived, and what he was most sure of was that Zhang Yu would not attack him, and it was Zhang Yu who shot the first shot.
"General, this Zhang Yu may just be here to make a profit, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are definitely here to destroy us, so we must guard against it." Chen Gong said.
Lu Bu suppressed his anger slightly, and then said: "You can't be so cheap Zhang Yu, you have to make him pay." ”
