Chapter 721: It's Raining
However, don't look at Guo Jia as if he was the first to run, but in fact, at that moment, the people who subconsciously turned around and fled when they saw the enemy firing thousands of arrows were far more than Guo Jia, even if they were actually far away. No way, this is human instinct, those who are punched by others and don't blink their eyes are either in a daze, blind, or specially practiced.
Moreover, Guo Jia's riding skills are average, and in this army, he is even more at the bottom, and in the blink of an eye, many people ran in front of him, and Guo Jia himself did not stand out at all. At this time, the army's spirit had been lost, and when Cao Cao saw this, he also knew that he couldn't fight anymore, so he hurriedly retreated. In the first battle between the two sides, Cao Jun was finally defeated.
The current situation is almost the same as when Yan Liang was beaten at the beginning, of course, saying this kind of thing now is definitely self-comforting, but not all the defeats at the beginning will end in victory!
Back at the camp, Cao Cao and the others were all heavy-faced, Guo Jia couldn't help but make a false alarm, and broke out in a cold sweat, he came here this time just to make soy sauce, can you not be so serious and nervous.
And when he was still discussing how to deal with Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao's side tasted the sweetness and found that the effect of archery was so good, anyway, he Yuan Shao also had a lot of materials and could afford it, if he could shoot Cao Jun to death directly without consuming troops and effortlessly, how convenient it would be!
Therefore, the trial suggested, "Today, 100,000 troops can be allocated to guard the official crossing, and a dirt mountain can be built in front of Cao Cao's village, so that the soldiers can look down and release arrows in the village." If I abandon this, I will get this pass. Xuchang can be broken. ”
Obviously, this trick is quite awesome. In this ancient world, in this two hundred years AD. Even gunpowder has not yet been used in military times, and the importance of "air combat" has been accurately grasped. I'm sitting on a plane above and throwing missiles, and you can't hit it below, only your life in vain.
And those who master the airspace, usually, are often the ones who are absolutely strong. No, it is clear that it takes time to pile up dirt and mountains, and it is necessary to send strong soldiers to use shovels and soil burdens. A shovel after a shovel, dig it and transport it to the side of Cao Cao's village, and then it can be built into a mountain! And Cao Cao saw this situation, where would there be no reaction, but unfortunately, reaction is one thing, strength is the key, Cao Cao wanted to rush out and destroy the mound, but every time he was blocked back by Yuan Shao with absolute strength. Such and such. In the end, Cao Cao could only watch Yuan Shao pile up the mound little by little.
Then, needless to say, it was raining and the clouds were crying. Boom la dripping into my heart. Ten days later, Yuan Shaojun built more than 50 earthen mountains in front of Cao Junzhai, and erected high turrets. Assign crossbowmen to shoot arrows at it. Crackling, sparse. Shooting arrows into Cao's camp all day long, as if it was raining. Cao Jun was terrified. Every time, you can only defend it with a shield. Whenever there was a bang on the dirt mountain, ten thousand arrows were fired together, Cao Jun was all lying on the ground, and Yuan Jun shouted and laughed.
In this case, Guo Jia, who stayed in the center of the camp and was not in danger of his life at all, was depressed, and the key was to be aggrieved. There's no room to fight back, and it's frustrating.
However, Guo Jia also expected this situation, he worked hard to forcibly transform Liu Ye, a liberal arts student, into a science student, and let Liu Ye study experimental physics, so that Liu Ye is a good person, and now he will have problems with his brain from time to time (hey, hey), what is Guo Jia for? Isn't it just to cope with the current situation?!
So Guo Jia waved his hand, Liu Ye, on! Let them see, what is called tearing devils with bare hands, ahhh, what is called using stones to beat the! Your Yuan Shao mound is so high, you have a hairy use, in the end, you don't directly become a live target, you can't even move.
Then, Liu Ye offered advice to Cao Cao,
"You can break it with a catapult!"
Everyone couldn't help but be surprised when they heard this, and hurriedly asked,
"Can a catapult hit that high?"
In the understanding of these people, catapults are often known for their distance, able to hit positions that archers can't reach, and inflict damage on the enemy first. And now, Yuan Shao's advantage is close and high, which is not something that a normal catapult can deal with. Therefore, these clever strategists had never thought about the catapult before.
"As long as I debug it a little, it's totally fine!"
Liu Ye replied with his head held high, feeling that he had never been so proud and proud as he was now. Liu Ye seems to have finally found the value of his life and successfully showed it to the world! This is a realm advantage, this is an IQ advantage, do you know what a parabola is, what the Pythagorean theorem is, what Newton's first law is?! Well, although Liu Ye always feels that these names are a little weird, but I don't know why, Liu Ye now feels more and more that it is this kind of name that makes it look high-end and high-grade!
Just kidding, if you say anything casually, as the name suggests, others will understand it as soon as they hear it, and you don't need to explain anything, then how can you reflect your superiority? Isn't it funny that you translate a good foreign sentence into local dialect! Look at the later, after the popularization of English, I will engage in Italian, French, Spanish, tsk, listen, "Di A", how sexy! How gentle! How romantic! In fact, to put it bluntly, it is bullying you who don't understand! You think he's saying "I love you", but maybe he's actually saying "your sister"!
Anyway, this is a kind of realm advantage, grade advantage, IQ advantage, Liu Ye now vaguely feels that he has experienced this advantage. (→_→ Is there really something wrong with your head? )
"Wow!"
"That's amazing!"
"It's really Liu Ye!"
Well, this is Liu Ye's voice in his fantasy, and in reality, it is naturally impossible. At least, for now, no one can marvel at the effect yet. Of course, when it turns out that it really has a very good effect, this kind of call is not surprising at all. Not to mention Cao Cao's side, even Yuan Shao's side couldn't help but be amazed.
In fact, if possible, Cao Cao was reluctant to take Liu Ye's proposal, after all, the catapult had to be done temporarily, and he didn't know if it would work or not, of course, the most important thing was that Liu Ye was Guo Jia's person. Although it is not directly counted on Guo Jia, is it really okay to let Guo Jia's forces achieve this great achievement?
However, Cao Cao really can't find any other better way now, and even said that he can't think of any other way except to retreat. And how could Cao Cao retreat now, once he lost Guandu, once the stronghold was lost, Xu Du would be directly under Yuan Shaojun's iron cavalry! Therefore, Cao Cao could only let Liu Ye enter the car, and made hundreds of stone carts overnight, distributed within the camp wall, facing the cloud ladder on the earth mountain. When Yuan Shaojun's archers shot arrows, the camp dragged the stone carts together, and the cannons flew into the air and beat them upward. On the hill, there was no place for people to hide, and countless archers died. (To be continued......)
