Chapter 572 Pound Sets Off
Whoosh whoosh!
The arrows falling from the sky are like torrential rain in the rainy season, covering the entire city of Yuyang. Every brick of Yuyang City is filled with arrows. If there is a Nanyang soldier who does not know whether to live or die at this time, If you rush out, you will definitely be pierced by thousands of arrows.
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you attack the city immediately!"
Cai Xun held the command flag and waved it hard, and the tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers who had been prepared rushed forward, as if a huge wave hit the head of Yuyang City hard.
"Kill the Nanyang soldiers!"
"If you conquer Yuyang City, Governor Cai will be rewarded greatly."
Tens of thousands of Jingzhou troops rushed forward like a tide, with great momentum to capture Yuyang City in one fell swoop. Cai Hao saw this and nodded with satisfaction.
As soon as the rain of arrows stopped, hundreds of Jingzhou soldiers rushed to the top of Yuyang City and rushed towards the female wall in large strides.
Li Yan had been listening carefully to the movements outside. Hearing the sound of arrows disappearing and the shouts of Jingzhou soldiers coming over like a tsunami, he casually threw the shield on his head and stood up straight.
"Archer, three rounds of powerful attacks, quick!"
The Nanyang soldiers had long been impatient under the intensive and rainy offensive of the Jingzhou Army and Navy. Now that the enemy had stopped shooting, it was naturally time for them to fight back and let out a fierce breath!
More than three hundred archers were seen standing up together, holding long bows and crossbows in their hands, aiming at the rushing Jingzhou soldiers, opening their bows and shooting.
Whoosh whoosh!
The closer the distance between the bow and arrow, the greater the killing power. At this moment, the distance between the Jingzhou soldiers and the Nanyang soldiers was only a few dozen steps, and the force of the arrows was very strong. The Jingzhou soldiers were knocked over.
Since Yuyang City is not a big city, and there are tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers, the formation is so dense that the Nanyang soldiers don't even need to aim at all, they just shoot with their bows, and they can hit the Jingzhou soldiers with their eyes closed. on the body.
Poof!
The sound of arrows piercing flesh was heard one after another, especially the Jingzhou soldiers in the front row. They collapsed in an instant like fragile wheat. No matter whether they were tall, strong or thin, Jingzhou soldiers were struck by the strong bows of the Nanyang soldiers. There was no difference in front of Jinnu, and the living lives suddenly fell into a pool of blood.
There were three consecutive rounds of arrow rain, and almost every arrow hit a Jingzhou soldier. Most of the Jingzhou soldiers who rushed to the top of the city died immediately.
Li Yan held the spear and shouted angrily: "The enemy is coming. If you are a man, come with me and kill the Jingzhou soldiers."
Hundreds of Nanyang soldiers behind the parapet stood up one after another, armed with swords, guns, swords and halberds, they rushed forward without fear and started a hand-to-hand battle with the Jingzhou soldiers.
"kill!"
"Nanyang belongs to our Jingzhou, get out of here!"
"Nanyang belongs to the imperial court, not Liu Biao, so you have to get out!"
As soon as the Jingzhou soldiers and Nanyang soldiers fought, it immediately became intense. Encouraged by Li Yan, the Nanyang soldiers mustered up all their strength to defend Yuyang for three days.
The Jingzhou soldiers mobilized more than 20,000 troops. They were also ordered by Cai Mao to capture Yuyang City in one fell swoop. The two sides were like fire and water, refusing to give in to each other, and both wanted to defeat the other.
"kill!"
Li Yan took the lead and charged into the Jingzhou army. He was attacking from left and right with the spear in his hand. The road he passed was full of blood. Although the Jingzhou soldiers were brave, there were only a few who could compete with Li Yan.
"Captain Li is an enemy of ten thousand people!"
"A complete victory! The Jingzhou soldiers will definitely be defeated."
Li Yan took the lead and was flanked by more than ten guards. The guards protected Li Yan's left and right sides, so Li Yan was able to charge forward fiercely, but the Jingzhou soldiers were naturally unable to resist.
Why were the ancient warriors able to charge into battle, and even kill dozens of people in a battle? One of the most important reasons is that the fierce general is protected by guards, so the fierce general only needs to charge forward and does not need to worry about what is behind him.
After all, there are very few people like Guan Yu who can single-handedly "stab a good man under a horse among all the troops." Even a peerless general like Xiang Yu hacked and killed all the twenty-eight Xichu knights beside him. After killing more than a hundred Han soldiers, they still had to lie on the ground.
This is the role of a strong general on the battlefield. Seeing Li Yan's brave and unstoppable appearance in killing the enemy, the morale of the Nanyang soldiers was greatly boosted. However, the Jingzhou soldiers first experienced three rounds of strong attacks by the archers of the Nanyang Army, and then were killed by Li Yan. The momentum of the attack was of frustration.
Cai Mao could still keep his composure, but Cai Xun was so anxious that he stamped his feet.
"Damn it, damn it!"
Suddenly, Cai Xun seemed to have thought of something and shouted to a guard beside him: "Go and call that boy Wenpin over."
The guard agreed, turned around and left, and came over after a while. Behind him, a young general who was not very old, but quite heroic and majestic came striding forward.
"Wenpin!" Cai Xun said coldly: "Our army is at a disadvantage in attacking the city. You go to the city to fight in person."
Wenpin frowned, and there was a slight look of disgust towards Cai Xun in his eyes, but there was not much expression on his face. He just lowered his head and said: "No."
"Zhongye." Cai Mao said, "I heard that you are from Nanyang Wan. Now Liu Yuqing has seized Nanyang. If you can capture Yuyang and make great achievements, someone can recommend you as the captain of Weibei and garrison Wancheng. How about that?"
Cai Zhong, who had not dared to speak, became anxious when he heard this. Cai Mao had promised him to leave the town, how could he let a young boy like Wenpin snatch it away?
Cai Mao didn't even look at Cai Zhong, but gently encouraged him: "Zhongye, don't let down the governor's expectations."
"No." Wenpin didn't waste any words. He picked up a green dragon halberd and carried it behind his back, then rushed towards the ladder.
Wenpin was very agile and reached out to grab the ladder. Using his hands and feet like an ape, he quickly rushed to the top of the city, grabbed the battlements at the top of the city, flew up, and reached out to grab the Green Dragon Halberd from behind.
Wenpin took a closer look and saw Li Yan holding a long spear, which was unstoppable. He thought to himself: This Li Yan seems to have extraordinary martial arts skills. He may not be able to win the upper hand in a head-on confrontation. It seems that it is better to attack by sneak attack.
Thinking of this, Wenpin did not shout, but held the Green Dragon Halberd with one hand, squeezed into the Jingzhou soldiers, concealed his aura, and slowly approached Li Yan.
Wenpin lowered his head and did not look at Li Yan's face. He just stared at Li Yan's boots and slowly stepped forward, getting closer and closer to Li Yan. He held the Green Dragon Halberd's palm harder and harder.
Twenty steps, ten steps, five steps!
kill!
Diploma suddenly raised his head, raised the green dragon halberd in his hand, aimed it at Li Yan and stabbed it out instantly, just in time to choose the gap where Li Yan's new power was not fully developed.
