"Defend the city!" Zhang He, who suddenly woke up, shouted with red eyes, as soon as the thunderbolt stopped, he sensed that something was wrong.

The defenders of the city hurriedly picked up the blades at hand and quickly climbed up, but seeing that there was already a dense mass of merger troops outside the city, they could even see the hideous faces of the archers on the well.

"Shoot the arrows!" Zhang He ordered.

The sparse rain of arrows caused a lot of trouble to the cloud ladder soldiers who were charging forward.

The archers on the well also began to shoot the defenders of the city, and their bows and arrows were more to greet the soldiers next to the bed crossbows.

The bed crossbow, which was originally hidden, also showed a hideous face, and launched a death shot at the besieging Bingzhou army.

The attacking Bingzhou army, in the face of the death of Paoze, had a look of grief and anger in their expressions, and they rushed towards the city wall at a faster speed.

Ladders were erected on the city, and two or three defenders worked together to push the ladders to it.

"Beat the drums!" Lu Bu ordered.

The drums of war suddenly sounded, which even more stimulated the soldiers besieging the city.

Zhang He hurriedly ordered to ask for help in the city, he knew that this was the time for the Bingzhou army to launch a real attack on Dangyin.

The crossbow bolts were wrapped in great power, piercing the two soldiers of the state army directly, until they died, they still maintained the posture of charging forward, and the shields in their hands were so fragile under the bed crossbow.

With the cover of the well, the soldiers who control the bed crossbow suffer the most casualties.

A Bingzhou soldier who was just about to climb the city wall was smashed down by a boulder that suddenly appeared on the city, and the two Bingzhou soldiers below also followed and fell to the ground, and the ladder couldn't withstand such a huge force, and broke on the spot, leaving only half of the ladder hanging on the city.

When the soldiers of the Bingzhou army attacked the city wall, Zhang He suddenly found that the boulders thrown on the city wall by the thunderbolt car before, although they could allow the defenders to take materials on the spot, it also caused a lot of difficulty to support, there were too many boulders on the city, not to mention cleaning up, under the sleepless attack of the Bingzhou army, the soldiers in the city were not replaced, they were forced to guard the city for three days, and every time it was time to eat, the soldiers who were responsible for delivering the food were the most tragic.

After Yuan Shao learned the news of the siege of the city by the Bingzhou army, he hurriedly ordered Ma Yan to lead 2,000 soldiers to support the west of the city.

When Ma Yan arrived with 2,000 elite soldiers, Zhang He was leading his soldiers to stubbornly resist the Bingzhou army attacking the city wall.

With a loud shout, Ma Yan led the soldiers to kill, and the addition of 2,000 people made it difficult for the Bingzhou army in the city to gain a foothold.

The siege of the city for a day, and the state army paid the price of thousands of people, of course, the damage caused to the defenders was greater, if it was not for Zhang He to find out in time, I am afraid that the control of the city wall at this time is in the hands of the state army.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Bu frowned and pondered, and at the same time had a bed crossbow and a thunderbolt car, he failed to break through the city of Dangyin, it seems that he still underestimated the Jizhou army, there are 20,000 Jizhou troops in the city, and Dangyin is very close to Jizhou, according to such a loss, even if the time will be broken by Dangyin, and the county will pay a heavy price, this is what Lu Bu does not want to see, what he wants is a big victory, a big victory that can completely deter Jizhou and even the world, so that those who are careful about the state dare not have any outflow.

Perhaps seeing Lu Bu's thoughts, Jia Xu persuaded: "Lord, but where the siege army will definitely be damaged, the Jizhou army has 30,000 people, and the price of more than 10,000 people has been paid for capturing the 5,000-person town guard, compared with it, when our army attacked the city, the casualties of the defenders in the city were greater, and within half a month, the morale of the army in the city was definitely demoralized." ”

Lu Bu nodded, it seems that he still hasn't been able to completely adapt to the battlefield of the Cold Weapon Era, if it is the kind of battlefield with more than 100,000 people, I am afraid that the dead soldiers can pile up.

"Focus on attacking the West Gate, so that the defenders of the city are not stable, and do not care about the damage of the thunderbolts, these things are made of some iron and wood, and the state does not lack these things." Lu Budao.

The defenders returned to their lives yesterday, shivering behind the female wall in the face of the constantly attacking boulders.

Yuan Shao was also at a loss in the face of such a situation, and went out of the city to fight head-on with the state army, he did not have the courage, and if he defended the city, he could only be beaten passively, and he had to be careful not to attack the city wall with the state army.

Late at night, there are stubborn soldiers walking by from time to time in the city of Dangyin, after all, it was the Bingzhou army that occupied Dangyin, and the people in the city were more resistant to the Jizhou army, although the family in the city tried their best to help the Jizhou army, in the time of war, any factor can not be ignored.

In Wang Laohan's house, there were more than 20 people gathered, if there was a state army in the city, it would be found that these people were selected by the state army, responsible for supervising the officials and the defenders in the city not to disturb the city, all of them were people with prestige in the city, similar to Jinyang, once a city was stabilized, Jinyang's system would gradually be perfected in this city.

"Everyone, now the Jizhou army is reckless in the city, killing countless ordinary people, the three sons of the old decay, two of them died in their hands, the women in the family were even more vicious, the Jizhou army is called a benevolent and righteous generation, but it is such a pig and dog is not as good as the thing, when the state army entered the city, although it encountered resistance, but it was not guilty of the people, the old man still remembered a general in the state at that time, told the old man about the state, and now the general died in front of the old man, for the Jizhou army brutally killed." Wang Laohan said with tears in his eyes.

Originally, there were eleven people in the family, but now only he and his three sons are left, all of which are given by the Jizhou army, and he has a monstrous hatred for the Jizhou army.

When everyone heard this, they also felt something, and they told what happened to the Jizhou army after entering the city, and at ordinary times, they didn't even dare to open the door of their homes, for fear of leading the Jizhou army to their homes.

Wang Laohan wiped his tears and said slowly: "The Jizhou army is brutal, instead of waiting for death in the city, it is better to fight with them, and the Jizhou army is outside the city. ”

After everyone was silent for a moment when they heard this, they all responded to Wang Laohan, but all those who were gathered at home by Wang Laohan were all endangered by the Jizhou army.

"Since everyone agrees, we will start the incident on the third watch tomorrow night, so don't reveal the news." Wang Laohan advised: "After you go back, you can contact those who have been killed by the Jizhou army, the more people, the greater the chance of victory." ”

"If you can get in touch with the state army outside the city, the chances of winning this trip will be much greater." An old man sighed.
