Chapter 1023: Jia Xu's Scheme

On the Xuanyuan Pass, Sun looked at the Qin army advancing towards the pass, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

The Qin army that advanced towards the pass was all strong crossbowmen.

When they reached the position where the crossbow could reach, the Qin army's strong crossbowmen stopped, wrapped the oilcloth on the feather arrows, and lit the oilcloth, aiming at the Qingzhou army on the gate.

At such a long distance, no matter how strong the Qin army's crossbow was, it was impossible to cause too much damage to the Qingzhou army at the pass.

Looking at the strong crossbowmen of the Qin army lined up outside the pass, Sun Guan shouted to the Qingzhou army soldiers on the pass: "Shield defense, keep the enemy's arrows outside!" ”

With Sun Guan shouting, the Qingzhou army on the pass put their big shields on the battlements, and the height of the pass was artificially raised.

If the two armies fight, the shield still has a strong defense against arrows.

But erecting a large shield on the battlements is undoubtedly a bit redundant.

The Qin army outside the pass strengthened the crossbowman, raised the strong crossbow, and used the big shield on the battlements as the base height, and then the arrow was raised by half an inch.

The arrows of all the Qin army's strong crossbowmen were burning with raging fire.

Aiming at the big shield of the Qingzhou Army on the close, the officer on the side of the array raised his arm, pressed his arm down violently, and shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

As the officer's arm pressed downward, the crossbowmen in the front row pulled off the springs of the crossbow arrows.

One arrow after another, while the strong crossbowman pulled off the machine spring, carried a ball of fire and flew towards Xuanyuan Pass.

The fire regiment made a "whirring" sound in mid-air and flew straight towards the Qingzhou army on the gate.

Holding a large shield, the officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army who stood at the gate lowered their heads and listened to the sound of arrows hitting the shield and the whistling sound of some arrows flying overhead.

The arrows shot by the Qin army's strong crossbowmen were like a meteor shower suddenly falling in mid-air, and when viewed from a distance, it was also spectacular.

Standing outside the barracks with his hands on his waist, looking at the puff of rockets shot by the crossbowman, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Lu Bu's mouth, and he said to Zhang Liao and Tai Shici on the side: "How is it?" Harassing the enemy army like this can also make the enemy army quite troubled! ”

Looking at the Qin army's strong crossbowmen who were casting arrows at the gate, Zhang Liao and Tai Shici's brows were always tightly wrinkled.

If you harass Xuanyuan Pass in this way, it will take less than two days for the Qingzhou army at the pass to understand the intentions of the Qin army, and when Wei Yan and others lead the army to arrive, I am afraid that the Qingzhou army is ready to defend the rear.

"Wen Hou!" Finally, Zhang Liao still couldn't hold back the words in his heart, and said to Lu Bu: "If you attack the Qingzhou Army like this, I think that in the near future, Wen Chang and the others are afraid that there will be a fierce battle." ”

From Zhang Liao's words, Lu Bu heard a little dissatisfaction, he turned his head to look at Zhang Liao, and said with a cold smile: "Wen Yuan has a high opinion? ”

Hearing that Lu Bu's tone was not good, Zhang Liao didn't dare to say more.

After all, this expedition, Lu Bu is the main general, and he and Tai Shici are just deputy generals.

After staring at Zhang Liao for a long time, and seeing that he didn't say anything more, Lu Bu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to Zhang Liao and Tai Shici: "You two think that General Ben will just let the soldiers cast arrows at the gate?" ”

When Lu Bu said this, Zhang Liao and Tai Shici were stunned for a moment, and both of them turned their eyes to Lu Bu's face, waiting for him to continue.

Looking at the Xuanyuan Pass, Lu Bu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to Zhang Liao and Tai Shici: "Three days later, I will wait to enter the pass!" ”

Lu Bu's words were very categorical, which made Tai Shici and Zhang Liao even more uneasy in their hearts.

Earlier, LΓΌ Bu had led a large army to attack Xudu, and it was precisely because he took many soldiers and horses that he finally led the defense of Cai to be insufficient, and Zhang Liao and others had to abandon the defense of Cai.

Now that Lu Bu said that he would enter the customs three days later, Zhang Liao and Tai Shi Ci were still a little apprehensive in their hearts.

Without looking at the two, Lu Bu already knew that they didn't believe what he said, so he pouted and smiled, turned around and walked towards the barracks.

After entering the handsome tent that the soldiers had set up for him, Lu Bu lowered the curtain and took out a letter from his bosom.

On the letter, it is Jia Xu's handwriting.

This letter has already opened his mouth, and the content of the letter, Lu Bu can almost recite it backwards.

Before the army set out, Jia Xu gave him this letter and asked him to open it again when he arrived at Xuanyuan Pass.

Along the way, whenever he thought that Jia Xu had given him a letter, Lu Bu felt as if there was something unfinished, and he always felt a little tickled like being scratched by a cat.

Without waiting for Xuanyuan Pass, he secretly opened the letter, and after reading the contents of the letter, Lu Bu's heart suddenly burst with joy.

When the leader came to Xuanyuan Pass, Liu Wei asked him to just harass the enemy army and not to break through the pass by force, which really made him bored for a while.

But after reading Jia Xu's letter, Lu Bu suddenly had confidence in breaking the Xuanyuan Pass.

However, before breaking the level, he still had to put down his temperament and let the strong crossbowman launch a feint attack on the pass for three days in a row.

"Someone!" Sitting in the tent, Lu Bu read the letter again, and made sure that he had memorized every link in it, and then shouted outside the tent.

A soldier guarding outside the tent heard Lu Bu's shout, stepped into the tent, and bowed towards Lu Bu with his fists clenched, waiting for his orders.

"Go and select two hundred elite soldiers for General Ben now!" Looking up at the pro-soldier, Lu Bu instructed him: "These people must know how to climb, if they don't have this ability, they don't want to!" ”

"No!" Although the soldiers didn't know why Lu Bu was looking for two hundred such soldiers, they still responded with a fist and withdrew from the tent.

Lu Bu entered the handsome tent, but Zhang Liao and Tai Shici were not as calm as he was in his heart.

The two of them hadn't read Jia Xu's letter, and they didn't know what Lu Bu's plans were, and they still felt apprehensive about Lu Bu's disobedience to Liu Wei's order.

"Wen Yuan, look at the ...... of Wen Hou" Looking at the strong crossbowman who was firing arrows at the gate, Tai Shici said to Zhang Liao with some hesitation: "Isn't he still going to disobey His Highness's orders?" ”

Also his eyes stayed on the crossbowman array, looking at the rocket flying towards the pass, Zhang Liao's brows were tightly locked, and he hesitated for a moment before saying to Tai Shici: "The general is outside, the king's order is not affected, but Wen Hou is always like this, and the last general is worried that he will ruin the big things of His Highness!" ”

Tai Shici, who had the same worries, didn't say anything more, what he was worried about was that Lu Bu was too rigid and self-serving, and broke Liu Wei's overall plan.

Looking at the rockets flying in the distance, Tai Shici said to Zhang Liao: "If this is not the case, Wen Yuan will take over the post of Wenhou's chief general and put Wenhou under house arrest......"

"Never!" As soon as Tai Shici's mention was spoken, Zhang Liao hurriedly said: "Wen Hou is the main general after all, I will wait and see how he calculates, if it is really chaotic, it will not be too late to stop it at that time!" ”

I still feel in my heart that if I follow Lu Bu's temperament, I am afraid that it will be a big deal, but I can mention that I was vetoed by Zhang Liao, and Tai Shici is not good at saying anything more, but his brows are gradually tightened.

The Qin army's strong crossbowmen outside the pass will fire arrows at the Qingzhou army on the pass every day for the next three days.

The rockets were all over the sky, and although they looked quite scary, the damage caused to the Qingzhou army at the pass was extremely limited.

The Qingzhou army guarding the pass would line up in a shield formation like a great enemy for the first two days, defending against the rockets fired by the Qin army's strong crossbowmen at the pass, but on the third day, they slackened.

Sitting under a battlement on the pass, a Qingzhou soldier looked up at the fireball flying overhead, pursed his lips, and said to Tong Ze on the side: "The Qin army is afraid that there are too many arrows to run out, for three consecutive days, every day they only shoot arrows at the pass, except for many scattered arrows in the city, I really don't know what they get!" ”

"King Qin is rich, so they can be abused!" Also sitting behind the battlements, another Qingzhou soldier also pouted and said: "The Qin army has been using arrows like this all day long, and I sometimes feel uncomfortable when I sit under the city head, and I really don't know what they are shooting!" ”

The soldiers of the Qingzhou army, who despised the strong crossbowmen of the Qin army who released arrows outside the city, and Sun Guan, who was also hiding under a battlement, were full of suspicions in their hearts.

The Qin army was a strong crossbowman and fired rockets at the pass for three consecutive days, but there was no infantry attack, which was really a bit contrary to tactical common sense.

Looking up at the rockets in the sky as bright as a meteor shower, Sun Guan's heart suddenly tightened, and he almost stood up directly.

As soon as his body owed, he suddenly remembered that above his head, it was the feather arrow shot by the Qin army's strong crossbowman.

If you really stand up and are shot by a feather arrow, then it is a real nest.

Hurriedly sat down again, and Sun Guan beckoned to a personal soldier on the side.

Seeing Sun Guan beckoning, the pro-soldier came to his side with his waist bent up, waiting for him to give an order.

"Pass the order, the whole army is on alert, beware of the appearance of the Qin army in the rear of our army!" Turning his head to look at the pro-soldier, Sun Guan gave an order to let the officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army think about the rear.

After receiving Sun Guan's order, the soldiers responded, lifted their shields, blocked their backs, and ran over the stairs of the pass with their waists down.

The arc of the arrows shot by the crossbow arrows is much smaller than that of the bow and arrow, and the personal soldiers who convey Sun Guan's orders only need to bend their waists to avoid the feather arrows.

Looking at the figure of the pro-soldier who disappeared at the mouth of the stairs, Sun Guan took a deep breath, and finally let go of the heart that had been hanging.

At the pass, Sun Guan ordered the Qingzhou army in the pass to guard against the back, outside the Xuanyuan Pass, Lu Bu crossed his waist, looking at the juncture where not even a shield was erected from a distance, and a smile of indifference appeared on his face.

Zhang Liao and Tai Shici, who were standing on the left and right sides of Lu Bu, saw the smile on his face, and their hearts became more and more worried.

"Someone!" Looking up at the sky, seeing that the sky had already darkened a little, Lu Bu waved behind him and shouted: "Order two hundred warriors, ready to go!" Follow General Ben to break through the Xuanyuan Pass! ”
