The corpse had not yet fallen from the siege ladder, and the two Yizhou soldiers on Deng Ai's side had already poked out the war halberd in their hands, and the halberd hook between the halberd blade and the halberd teeth was on top of the two main poles of the siege ladder, so much like a painting fork for drying clothes against the drying rack. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info look at the two Yizhou soldiers who both resisted the tail of the halberd with one hand, and pushed forward with all their strength.

In the angry shouts of the two Yizhou soldiers when they exerted their strength, the top of the siege ladder was pushed off the wall. The Liaodong soldiers supported at the bottom of the ladder could not stabilize the siege ladder at this time, and the entire siege ladder fell in the other direction, and the Liaodong soldiers who were still on the ladder also quickly jumped off the ladder, and the people in the high places would inevitably fall hard.

"General, get out of the way!"

Hearing this voice, Deng Ai hurriedly dodged over, but saw two other Yizhou soldiers rushing up with a large cauldron filled with a pot full of red-burned wooden blocks. Rushing to the wall without saying a word, a whole pot of red wooden blocks poured down, and a scream sounded under the wall.

Listening to this scream, a bit of hideousness appeared on Deng Ai's young face, and he sneered: "You Liaodong soldiers are content!" I was in a hurry to get here the other day, and I didn't have time to prepare anything, so I had to order the soldiers in reserve to cut down trees to make coals. If you want to change it to the walls of my Yizhou cities, not to mention the terrifying artillery of our Yizhou, just those alcohol, briquettes, and fish oil, I can make your life worse than death! ”

Looking a little farther away under the wall, the Liaodong soldiers who had to gather together because of the mountain terrain, Deng Ai couldn't help but sneer with a little cruelty, and his left arm was raised high, and he shouted: "The crossbowmen in the back row are ready!" Elevation angle thirty degrees projectile...... Put! ”

"Repeaters in the back row! Thirty degrees of elevation projectile, put! ”

A canopy can't be regarded as a dense and terrifying rain of arrows, but the effect is not ordinarily good. In fact, Deng Ai rushed here to belong to the nature of a rapid march, the materials carried by the army are relatively limited, such as the number of arrows is not very much, and the fleet is a little inconvenient due to the restrictions on personnel and mountain transportation, etc., unlike Zhao Yu, when they guard the Chrysanthemum Harbor, they can let the crossbowmen let go of the shooting, and now there is no way to recycle the arrows shot out on the battlefield, so Deng Ai is very cautious about the use of existing crossbow arrows. Otherwise, let the more than 2,000 Yizhou crossbowmen let go of their shooting, and it is a question whether the soldiers and horses of Liaodong can get close to the fortress wall to attack the city.

Caution is cautious, Deng Ai will never leave his hand when it should be used. Deng Ai's vision is very poisonous, every time he gives the order to release arrows, the rain of arrows will create a fault in the middle of the Liaodong soldiers, making the front and rear forces of the Liaodong soldiers unable to connect within a certain period of time. The successors couldn't keep up in a short period of time, but the front row couldn't attack the city wall, and the result was that the Liaodong soldiers in the front row were eaten by the Yizhou soldiers in one go. Even if you can't eat it, you will be beaten to a half-crippled heart. To put it simply, Deng Ai's tactic is like cavalry penetrating/interspersing and dividing the opposing legion, and then destroying the small pieces of enemy troops that have been divided.

After a while, Deng Ai ordered the crossbowmen to stop shooting, but by this time the Liaodong soldiers under the city had not much to live for. Deng Ai took the spear handed by the soldier, and then glanced at the Liaodong soldiers who were pressing up again, and the corners of his mouth once again hung a cruel sneer......

――――――――――――――――――――

When night fell, it was inconvenient to fight again, and the Liaodong soldiers had to retreat again. At this moment, Deng Ai said that he was not tired, it was a lie, and after confirming the retreat of the Liaodong soldiers, he had already sat on the ground, his back against the guardrail and gasping.

At this time, the deputy general sat beside Deng Ai with a bag of wine and food, and handed the wine gourd on his waist to Deng Ai after laying it out casually. After Deng Ai took it, he didn't say a word, opened the lid and poured it wildly, and only after the half gourd went down did he wipe his mouth indiscriminately, and said with a smile: "Good wine!" If I'm not mistaken, this is what the Lord gave you last time...... What kind of wine comes from? I don't remember, but I know that it was the secret of the lord's own wine cellar, and it was not available on the market at all. You have been reluctant to drink the buckets that the lord rewarded you with, and you can't imagine that you are cheaper than me now. ”

The adjutant general smiled: "Aren't you the same?" I was reluctant to drink it, you tasted it and sent it back to Yizhou to hand it over to Lingtang, and said that you could add some flowers to Lingtang after selling it. My lord has always been very kind to me, so you're not short of that money, are you? ”

Deng Ai's expression darkened slightly: "You and I are in the army, and my mother is idle at home, so it seems that this can be regarded as sending some filial piety to my mother...... Don't talk about that. What are the soldiers doing now? ”

The adjutant general said: "After checking the situation, more than 200 brothers were killed in battle, and more than 100 people were seriously injured and could no longer fight. The rest is not to mention that everyone is injured, but forty percent of the brothers are injured. In addition to the 300 miscellaneous soldiers, we now have more than 3,000 capable soldiers. ”

Deng Ai frowned slightly: "The fierceness of the war is far beyond my imagination, and the casualties of the brothers are also a little unexpected to me. ”

Indeed, the intensity of this battle greatly exceeded Deng Ai's expectations, but this cannot be completely blamed on Deng Ai. Counting the previous battles in which Yizhou soldiers and horses participated, Lu Lingqi in the first battle of Juyongguan belonged to fighting guerrillas and fighting, although there were good shining points in many places, but the main force of the actual battle was tens of thousands of Cao troops led by Cao Zhang and Tian Yu;

Looking at the battle of Chrysanthemum Harbor again, Zhao Yu and their strength comparison with Budugen is one to five, although there is a disadvantage in the strength of the troops, but the city defense facilities of Chrysanthemum Harbor are complete, the military supplies are sufficient, and there are dozens of gunboats on the sea to provide fire support, basically can completely give full play to the characteristics of Yizhou soldiers and horses "attacking weak and defending strong", so it is relatively easy to fight against Budugen.

But now Deng Ai is fighting a completely tough battle. First of all, in terms of the comparison of troops, it is 4,000 to 30,000, and Gongsun Yuan's strength is nearly ten times that of Deng Ai, which is already a huge pressure, and this cottage is not from the hands of Yizhou, and there are basically no city defense facilities that Yizhou soldiers and horses are good at, which also makes Deng Ai's combat effectiveness discounted. This is also fortunate that Deng Ai has already fought some similar battles in the Nanzhong region before, and has some relevant experience, otherwise the loss figure at the current point may be larger.

After eating something and recovering some strength, the adjutant general couldn't help but say with some concern: "Now that the fight has been so fierce, it's okay to say that we have food and grass on hand, but the arrows and ordnance are consumed too quickly, can we stop it if it goes on like this?" ”

Deng Ai's eyes were cold: "Our army is guarding the key road and the city pass, and then looking at this danger, there are 3,000 soldiers and horses enough to resist tens of thousands of troops." We've been blocking it for two days, so why not stop it? If you go down, you don't have to keep your hands from tomorrow, we will use all of what should be used and what can be used! In addition, he sent a messenger back to the fleet to call and ask the lord if he could send some more reinforcements. It doesn't take much, 3,000 people are enough! ”

Maybe it was infected by Deng Ai, and the deputy general also slapped his thigh: "That's right!" In order to act and drag Gongsun Yuan, he hasn't done his best in the past few days. It's been a few days now, so you don't have to leave your hands behind! If there are another 3,000 reinforcements, it won't be too much of a problem to stop Gongsun Yuan from dying here. General, you eat first, and I'll go and let the soldiers assemble all the guys in place, and then send someone to the fleet to send a message. ”

――――――――――――――――――――

The next day, at dawn, I don't know if it can be regarded as a tragic offensive and defensive battle to start again. Not long after the battle began, the Liaodong soldiers were shocked to find that the attack from the city wall was much more powerful than a few days ago.

In the past few days, there was nothing scary on the city wall, except for the rain of arrows that would come from time to time, the Liaodong soldiers were almost in close contact with the Yizhou soldiers. But at this moment, there are a few more strange-shaped crossbows on the wall, and the arrows shot are fast and ruthless, not to mention the arrows, and the arrows are also like endless. From time to time, a large pile of gravel will fly out of the city, smashing the Liaodong soldiers on their backs.

That's all, the Liaodong soldiers didn't know about the Yizhou large-scale repeating machine crossbow and head throwing machine, but sometimes the trebuchet would throw out the sand in the sky. The direct lethality of the sand is not strong, but the bursts of earth fog and dust will fascinate the eyes of the Liaodong soldiers.

The mountain road was originally narrow, and the Liaodong soldiers were eager to attack the city, and the troops would often be crowded together. From time to time, the opposite city throws out a cloud of dust, sand and fog that specializes in charming eyes, which is really a trick that is extremely damaging. You think, a large number of people rushed forward in a hurry, and suddenly someone couldn't see clearly, and there were rocks, dirt pits, and even corpses under their feet, and it was really common for them to be suddenly mixed up and then fall to the ground. And someone ...... It should be said that when a certain crowd falls, one of the people behind can't hold their feet, and the disaster of stampede will follow.

It's easy to say that stepping on corpses is good, anyway, people are dead, and it's nothing to step on them. But when everyone knows that there is a living person under their feet, how many people can get off their feet? When the people here hesitated, and some hesitated between stepping on it and not stepping on it, the people behind them hugged them.

Deng Ai is also a person who is damaged. The trebuchet is not very convenient to collect stone bullets, but the sand and soil are available at any time, so just dig directly under your feet when necessary! Therefore, Deng Ai instructed the trebuchet to throw rounds of sand and dirt every once in a while, and then use stone bullets to carry out coordinated attacks.

just fought, but the deputy general found Deng Ai with a strange look. Deng Ai was commanding the battle, and he was very dissatisfied with the adjutant general who pulled him aside, so he wanted to scold, but the adjutant general opened his mouth one step ahead of Deng Ai and said: "General, there is a troop of soldiers and horses in our rear." ”

It's okay not to say it, Deng Ai was startled at the time, and grabbed the adjutant general's collar as soon as he reached out and said hurriedly: "After the walled city?" Liaodong reinforcements over there in Xiangping? How many centaurs came? Impossible! Didn't I send 4,000 men to block the direction of Xiangping, and told them that they should not leave even if the war here was dangerous? Or did they defend improperly and were broken through the defense line by the Liaodong soldiers in the direction of Xiangping? Oh no, the retreat has been cut off, and we can only defend to the death, but where do we have enough soldiers and horses to fight at both ends? ”

The deputy general hurriedly pulled Deng Ai's hand away and said, "The general misunderstood, it is my Yizhou reinforcements ......"

"Reinforcements, reinforcements?"

Deng Ai's heart that mentioned his throat and eyes just now instantly relaxed, and he exclaimed: "Shock me!" Frightened me...... That's not right! We only sent a fast horse messenger back to the fleet yesterday to shoot a telegram, although the lord called back and said that he would ask Uncle Gan (Gan Ning) to immediately send some people to reinforce us, but with the position of Uncle Gan's fleet, at least this evening can be arrived...... Go and see again, don't be deceived by the treacherous tricks of Liaodong soldiers and horses! ”

The adjutant general hurriedly shook his head and said, "General, the last general is sure that it will be my Yizhou reinforcements, but this support army is ...... Will the last general really dare to enter the city to fight us off? ”

Deng Ai is on fire, the war in the city is raging, but the deputy general is here to talk to him about this, and anyone will be angry: "Why is this? It is a reinforcement, and it is connected to the walled city! Our army is short of troops, and it is the right time to rush to help! ”

The adjutant general almost didn't cry at this time: "General, do you think I don't want to take reinforcements in to help the war?" But do you know who the leader is? ”

Deng Ai was angry again: "Who is it!?" ”

The adjutant general wanted to cry without tears: "The one who came to help...... It's the eldest son wind and the second lady rain!! ”

Deng Ai's head buzzed and he almost fainted: "Feng Gongzi and the rain county lord? How could they be here!? ”

Don't say how Deng Ai fainted, just say that Lu Ren at this time is jumping in the mansion and scolding the street: "What's the matter with these two little ghosts?" I asked them to follow Xun Yun to the sea to see, and when they got to Chrysanthemum Harbor, they came back, why did these two little bastards run to Xisai Mountain with Xun Yun!? ”

――――――――――――――――――――

On the mountain road at the other end of the Xisai Mountain Walled City, a Yizhou army of about 2,000 people was quietly stationed and watching. At the head of the team, the team leader is a man and a woman...... Two bear children. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a bear child, because these two bear children are Lu Ren and Cai Yan's eldest sons and eldest daughters Lu Feng and Lu Yu, and these two goods were born in February of the ninth year of Jian'an, and they will only turn eleven years old in the last month. Isn't this the age of a bear child?

After standing for a while, Lu Yu suddenly chuckled and said, "Brother, it's been so long, why hasn't anyone in the walled city spoken back and forth?" Isn't this too much to ignore our brothers and sisters? Hiss...... It's cold! ”

Lu Feng snorted lightly and said, "You come less!" I'm not as scheming as you, but I'm not that stupid. I know exactly what's going on in your mind right now. ”

Lu Yu smiled: "Really clear? Have you ever thought that more than 2,000 of us are standing here like wooden people, and our brothers and sisters certainly know it, but if the more than 2,000 people behind us don't give them an explanation, something may happen. Brother, no matter how you say it, our identities are different! ”

Lu Feng was stunned, then reacted, and said with a smile: "It's too!" On top of these details, I really can't look at them as carefully as you can...... Come, give the order to go down, everyone sit down and rest on the spot, and don't make a noise! Let me tell you again, the brothers in the walled city are desperately resisting the enemy, and they really can't find time to receive us into the village. ”

The order was swiftly laid, and the two thousand or so people sat down on the spot, either talking in whispers or simply closing their eyes to recuperate, but no one dared to amplify their voices even more. Lu Feng nodded with satisfaction after reading it, but when he turned back, he saw that Lu Yu had already found a clean place and knelt down to sit down and close his eyes to recuperate. Lu Feng walked over in a few steps, then folded his arms and looked down at Jiang Shuang, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "I hope Deng Shizai won't be so stupid." ”

Lu Yu responded without opening his eyes: "Deng Shizai is only more than ten years older than you, brother, and he is still a young generation in Yizhou, but he was promoted by his father, and he will inevitably have his advantages." If Xiaomei expected to be correct, I am afraid that today it will only be after Gongsun Yuan's soldiers and horses have retreated, Deng Shizai will welcome us into the walled city. ”

Lu Feng nodded: "I think so too." Originally, I wanted to walk slower and rush to the village when it was getting dark, so as not to cause any trouble to Shizai's rejection of the enemy. However, considering that the mountain road was difficult to walk after dark, and he was afraid that Deng Shizai would not be able to distinguish between friend and foe here because of the darkness and unnecessary trouble, so he rushed over at this time. ”

Lu Yu pouted and smiled: "Brother, I don't worry much about this, what I'm really worried about is how my father will punish you and me after this battle." ”

Lu Feng also had a big headache for a while after hearing this: "I also have a headache like this...... Why don't we run away after the fight, and then find a way to ask my mother and aunt to help me intercede? ”

Lu Yu also sighed a little helplessly: "Let's talk about it then." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――

When Deng Ai received the news that Lu Feng and Lu Yu were coming to help, it was already afternoon. Headache to headache, Deng Ai is definitely not the kind of person who can't tell the importance of things, and soon analyzed from the plain and quiet actions of the Fengyu brothers and sisters that the Fengyu brothers and sisters didn't want Deng Ai to be distracted, and they also cleverly used this to create a momentum in their hearts...... In fact, to put it bluntly, Deng Ai shouted out the words, "The lord ordered the Feng Gongzi and the Yu County Lord to lead the army to help, what should I do."

There were many second ancestors in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, but no one in Yizhou dared to look at Lu Feng and Lu Yu like this. Although these two are only eleven years old this year, and they usually do a lot of things for bear children, they do show quite extraordinary intelligence. Let's put it this way, the bear child is certainly a headache, but if there is no corresponding intelligence to help these things, then this bear child is also an unqualified bear child.

And the maturity of the ancients is generally early, and it is common for them to go out to see things in their teens, since Lu Ren has the intention to adjust it, it is not possible to adjust it in a short time, just this time Chrysanthemum Port reported success, and at the same time, it was also necessary to replenish military supplies, Lu Ren asked Xun Yun to take Lu Feng and Lu Yu to the sea and the north to see it.

Seriously, both of these are eleven years old, and they still don't know what snow is, which is a bit unreasonable, isn't it? It's just that I didn't expect that the courage of these two bear children is not ordinary...... (To be continued.) )
