Chapter 504: Lu Bu goes into battle
Jia Xu's words were very brief, but everyone in the tent fell into silence like Lu Bu, and at this moment, there was another hatred on their shoulders.
They can imagine the scene at that time, what decent blades can the people have in their hands, and they may only use some sticks, but these people are on the way forward for the sake of the state army, whether they are for their own hatred or to welcome the state army into the city, they are all friends of the state army at this moment.
"I am willing to attack the front for the front!" Zhang Liao said in a deep voice.
The generals in the tent asked for battle.
Lu Budao: "Zhang Liao led two thousand soldiers as the front to attack the West Gate, and the army then covered up, be sure to conquer Dangyin!" ”
No matter what the purpose of the people was, they fell into the hands of the Jizhou army for the sake of annexing the state army.
For the people, Lu Bu has always been generous, and the people in Dangyin City have deeply stimulated Lu Bu with their actions.
"Dian Wei, order the personal guards, Ben Hou will personally attack the city and avenge the soldiers and people of the Bingzhou army who died in the city!" Lu Budao.
Although Jia Xu and the generals in the tent felt that Lu Bu's behavior was inappropriate, no one stepped forward to dissuade them.
"Hurry up!" Hao Meng kept urging the Thunderbolt riders, and even the bed crossbows, which had been silent for a long time, began to threaten, in order to shock the defenders in the city.
The defenders on the west gate don't know what is happening today, not only are there more boulders than before, but even the bed crossbows have begun to attack, and the soldiers in charge of watching are the first to bear the brunt!
Squinting his eyes and glancing at the battlefield in the distance, Lu Bu saw a crossbow arrow shot into the city wall, and the thick crossbow arrow was exposed, and he had a thought in his heart.
Although the soldiers who controlled the bed crossbow did not understand the orders given from above, they still complied, and one after another the crossbow arrows went in the direction of the city wall, and in a short time, the city wall was filled with dense crossbow arrows.
Jia Xu's eyes lit up when he saw this, if the soldiers besieging the city could rely on crossbow arrows to climb the city wall, it would be much more convenient, even if the defenders knocked down the ladder, as long as they were agile soldiers, they could also climb the city wall through the crossbow arrows that shot into the city wall, so it became much easier to attack the city.
After the bed crossbow and thunderbolt stopped, Zhang Liao led 2,000 soldiers and launched the first attack on the west gate.
Zhang He was shocked when he saw Zhang Liao in front of the Bingzhou Army, Zhang Liao's bravery can be said to have reached the point where everyone knows it in the Jizhou Army.
"Aim your bow and arrow at that general, and shoot this man!" Zhang He ordered.
To Zhang He's disappointment, the shield soldiers guarding Zhang Liao's side blocked all the arrows they shot.
After the ladder was hung on the city wall, Zhang Liao moved his muscles and bones, and aimed his eyes at a ladder, next to this ladder, there were seven or eight crossbow arrows.
With a knife in one hand, Zhang Liao jumped and quickly walked towards the city.
The soldiers who were ordered to observe Zhang Liao hurriedly informed Zhang He of the situation.
"Knock this ladder down!" Zhang He ordered.
At this time, Zhang He had already reached half the height of climbing, and it only took a moment to climb the city wall, but the cloud ladder above slowly left the city wall.
Zhang Liao snorted coldly, kicked hard under his feet, left the ladder with his body, and grabbed a crossbow arrow in his right hand, only then did Zhang Liao notice that the crossbow arrow was probably a foot into the wall, and after finding a foothold, Zhang Liao went towards the city wall again.
The soldiers of the Bingzhou Army, who were climbing the ladder, saw Zhang Liao's movements and followed suit, and Zhang Liao's personal guards quickly followed the crossbow arrows to catch up with Zhang Liao's pace.
"General, I didn't find that Zhang Liao had landed."
Zhang He frowned slightly, the city wall of the Dangyin was five zhang high, even if it was half the height, it would hurt if it fell, and suddenly, Zhang He thought of the crossbow arrow that was originally shot at the city wall.
"Throw the log down the wall!"
As soon as Zhang He's words fell, Zhang Liao climbed the city wall, burst into shouts, and with knives in both hands, he killed the two soldiers who had just raised the sassagros.
Zhang Liao's personal guards also climbed to the city wall, with Zhang Liao as the center, and killed the soldiers defending the city.
The soldiers defending the city were also a little confused, obviously there was not a ladder on the city wall smoothly, and how the state army attacked the city wall.
Zhang Liao, who led more than a dozen personal guards, was brave and threw away his armor and killed the surrounding Jizhou army.
Seeing more and more Bingzhou troops climbing the city wall, Zhang He hurriedly sent people to Yuan Shao for help, and then led more than 100 soldiers to rush over.
After Lu Bu told Jia Xu a few words, he led five hundred guards to come in the direction of the city wall, this is also the first time Lu Bu participated in the siege of the soldiers, in the battle, the siege is the most dangerous, no matter how strong your martial arts are, facing the defenders' arrows and wooden boulders, it is enough to make you scramble, and if you are not careful, there will be a danger of death.
Several guards were in front of Lu Bu, crawling towards the city wall, their mouths biting rings and swords, their shields in their left hands.
Holding a halberd in his right hand, Lu Bu followed the ladder and walked towards the city at a very fast speed, Dian Wei was on the ladder not far from Lu Bu, closer to the city wall, as the commander of the guard, he wanted to help Lu Bu clear the enemy in front of him and ensure that Lu Bu could smoothly climb the city wall, as for Lu Bu after climbing the city wall, it was definitely a nightmare for the defenders.
Compared with ordinary soldiers, Lu Bu was too prominent, so that he just came to the city, and was discovered by the defenders of the city, Zhang He ordered two soldiers to prepare the wooden boulder, as long as they can kill or wound Lu Bu on the battlefield, it is definitely a fatal blow to the Bingzhou army, and at the same time, he also has to admire Lu Bu's courage and dare to attack the city in person.
The main general of the first army is the backbone of the army, once there is any change, it is a fatal blow to the morale of the army, if Lu Bu can be killed or injured, this war is won.
One of the guards was about to approach the city wall, and at this moment, a boulder suddenly appeared above his head, and he could even see the crack at the bottom of the boulder, gritting his teeth and raising his shield to resist, he couldn't hide, because below, there was his general, even if he died, he had to resist.
The boulder fell no more than half a foot high, and it was still wrapped in great power, and even though the guard struggled to resist, the right hand that grabbed the ladder still let go.
There was still a distance of at most two zhang from the city wall, but Lu Bu did not dare to take it lightly, after noticing the situation above, Lu Bu jumped up, grabbed the crossbow arrow on the city wall, and did not climb up along the crossbow arrow, but moved to the right for about a zhang before heading towards the city.
Three guards fell from the ladder, the ladder was also broken, Zhang He hurriedly ordered the soldiers to attack the boulder along the city wall, but he remembered that Zhang Liao was on the city wall after the ladder was pushed down, it can be seen that the crossbow arrows shot into the city wall before can allow the Bingzhou army to attack the city wall.
