Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Vol 2 Chapter 86: life in desperation

   Chapter 172

Ma Chao's attack was naturally unsuccessful. Although the defenders were only less than 500 people, the sudden appearance of the city wall was something Ma Chao and Ma Teng did not expect. There were no siege equipment in the army. ) of the city wall is no longer able to rush up by the soldiers in cooperation with each other.

  The reason why Ma Chao was so ferocious was because he was certain that the city wall that was built overnight must be a blindfold by Zhang Liao, and it was impossible for anyone in this world to build a city overnight.

   So he personally took the arrow and rushed under the city with a shield, just to verify the authenticity of the city wall and to pierce Zhang Liao's lies!

   However, he was disappointed. This city wall is not only real, but also very strong. There are ice **** everywhere on it. Although the spear can pierce some holes, it is obviously impossible to break through the defense of the city wall.

   But what makes Ma Chao speechless the most is that this city wall has no gates!

  How can they attack without even preparing a ladder? In addition to shooting each other with the defenders of the city head, even if the defenders of the city head are killed, how to climb up is a problem.

  Ma Chao smashed more than a dozen shots at the city wall as if to vent, and then withdrew the soldiers with low morale in angrily.

   "Father, that city wall is real, the child is incompetent, unable to break the city!" Ma Chao said with a dejected expression: "The other side's city wall was watered with water and sand overnight and then frozen, and it is difficult to break through in a hurry!"

   Ordinary people have no knowledge and are still amazed at how the city wall was built, but Ma Chao understood the principle of the city wall.

   But even knowing what's the use? Morale is indeed lost. This morale is not a simple addition and subtraction. Even if you explain it to all the soldiers, morale does not come back when you say it, and how do you explain the ten thousand soldiers? When the explanation is clear, the reinforcements here should also arrive.

   Zhang Liao's occupation of Yanyin is equivalent to cutting off all the backs for Ma Teng. Even if he wants to return to Yuzhong now, he will go to Zuli; I am afraid that when he returns to the army, he will most likely encounter Lu Bu's main force.

   Yesterday, Zhang Wenyuan almost killed his army with hundreds of people. What would happen if Lu Bu led the army?

Although he hardly ever fought against Lu Bu, judging from the abilities of Lu Bu's subordinates Hua Xiong and Zhang Liao, Ma Teng no longer has much confidence to fight against Lu Bu, and with his current strength, he can fight against Lu Bu's main force. , is basically no different from being sent to death.

   So what Ma Teng can do now is to break Zhang Liao as soon as possible, and then defend the An Yin with heavy troops. As long as he defends here, he can continue to deal with Lu Bu.

but……

  The city wall without even the city gate, how to fight! ?

Looking at the city wall that Zhang Liao built overnight, Ma Teng's mood was similar to when his son Ma Chao saw the city wall. He wanted to scold his mother. The city wall of two feet and three feet was already very high, and what was even more embarrassing was that he even attacked a simple one. There is no city equipment, so people can only collect wood around and build some simple ladders, even a cloud ladder.

  The cloud ladder can't be pushed on the city wall unless you use fire, and this kind of temporary wooden ladder can be easily knocked down with a spear. With such a thing to attack the city, the efficiency can be imagined.

   But there is no way, in a hurry, where can I go to find the ladder? That's not something you can build if you want to. You have to have serious craftsmen. Ordinary soldiers don't have this skill.

   Therefore, when he stood on the city wall and watched Ma Jiajun carrying dozens of simple ladders and began to rush towards the city wall, he knew that at least he would have no problem defending this place today.

  Although the soldiers were already tired, in the time of life and death, they had no choice but to work hard.

  The Ma family army rushed towards the city wall like ants, and the soldiers at the top of the city pushed down the ladders again and again. There was no stone.

Zhang Liao, Song Xian and Cheng Lian kept walking on the city wall, beheading the Ma Jiajun soldiers who rushed up to their death. Under the oppression, the defending soldiers suffered a lot of casualties. In the end, what Zhang Liao and the three did the most was not to kill the enemy, but to force back the soldiers who wanted to retreat.

Zhang Liao underestimated Ma Teng's determination to take down Yanyin. He had no way out and had to work hard. Not only did he rush towards the city wall with a ladder, but he also set a fire under the city wall. The city wall was built on ice. , a stone of ice water melts, and the city wall will naturally collapse.

   By the afternoon, the city wall built that night had already had many gaps. Although it didn't completely collapse, it was almost there.

   "I can't hold it anymore!" Song Xian and Cheng Lian hoarse their voices, looking at the crumbling city wall, and turning to Zhang Liao, are they really going to die here?

   Zhang Liao sighed, and naturally he didn't want to stick to it, especially when he couldn't hold it even if he stuck to it.

   opened his mouth, just as he was about to order the retreat, the familiar sound of a horn pierced through the noisy battlefield and fell into their ears.

   Zhang Liao's spirit was shocked, he looked up, and in the distance where the heaven and earth meet, a black line was constantly creeping and getting thicker!

   "Reinforcement, our reinforcements are here! Soldiers, hold on for a moment!" Zhang Liao's eyes flashed with excitement, and he raised his head sword and shouted loudly. Although he didn't know if it was reinforcements, he was right.

   Everyone also saw it. Although it was impossible to tell whether it was reinforcements or not at this distance, it was not important. Zhang Liao said yes, it must have been. After most of the day, it was still a quarter of an hour away?

  The soldiers who were already exhausted, just when Ma Teng thought he was about to take down this **** ice wall, the defenders on the city wall suddenly burst out with amazing will, and drove down the Ma family army that rushed to the city wall.

   "Master, there are a large number of enemy troops in the rear!" Pound rushed to Ma Teng and shouted loudly.

   "What!?" Ma Teng was shocked when he heard the words, and quickly turned his horse to look around. At this time, the other party was already a lot closer, and he could already see many figures. The most important thing was that the other party's flag was faintly visible.

Isn't    the flag of Lu Bu? And the opponent's troops are also quite large, if the opponent takes the opportunity to attack at this time, he will be attacked by the enemy.

Yesterday, Zhang Liao took the opportunity to attack him for a while, and he almost had a miracle that tens of thousands of troops were defeated by 500 soldiers and horses. Now that a large number of enemy troops appeared, Ma Teng was unwilling, but he also knew that the siege could not continue, so he could only order a rapid withdrawal of troops and return to the camp .

   Naturally, the Qiang soldiers led by the two brothers Jiang Xu and Jiang Jie came. The almost collapsed city wall was pushed down by Zhang Liao’s order. Jiang Xu and Jiang Jie took the opportunity to lead the army over.

   Looking at the tragic situation on the city wall, Rao Shi Jiang Xu and Jiang Jie knew that this battle was not easy to fight, and they were also taken aback.

Of the seven hundred Bingzhou elite cavalry that Lu Bu gave to Zhang Liao, there are only more than 100 left, and many of them died in battle. By comparison, the bodies of the enemy soldiers who died outside the city were already piled up like mountains. In order to win this battle, Ma Teng drove the soldiers to the battlefield after his morale dropped several times. The ants attacked the city and suffered heavy casualties. This is more than ten times more.

   This is also the reason why Ma Teng immediately retreated as soon as Jiang Xu and the others appeared. Judging from the morale at the time, if they encounter a large-scale battle, even if the opponent is a mob, they will definitely lose.

What's more, after this period of time, the Qiang soldiers followed Zhang Liao to fight, and both their combat experience and their ability to receive orders have been greatly improved, and they can no longer be evaluated as a mob. is very likely.

At this moment, looking at the corpses of Paoze, these are the elites who followed from Bingzhou. At this moment, watching the corpses of these soldiers being removed, Zhang Liao watched silently, Song Xian and Cheng Lian's eyes were red, and in their ears, it seemed that Echoes of the desperate and tragic roar on the city wall not long ago.

   "General, it's too late!" Jiang Xu and Jiang Jie looked at Zhang Liao, Song Xian, and Cheng Lian and bowed.

"It's already very soon." Zhang Liao shook his head. In his expectation, the two of them could arrive within a day and they had already met expectations, not to mention that the two of them were a little earlier, and the timing was just right, no matter how late. For a moment, Zhang Liao would have to give up the city wall. Of course, it would have been better if it could have been a moment earlier, so that people would not experience that sense of despair.

   "The bandit army already knows how our army built the city, so there's no need to hide it, Zhongming!" Zhang Liao looked at Song Xian.

   "The end is here!" Song Xian took a step forward.

"You instruct Boyi and Zhongyi to make this ice city stronger. Before the lord comes, we must stand here!" Zhang Liaodao~www.NovelMTL.com~ With Jiang Xu and Jiang Jie and thousands of them With the addition of the Qiang soldiers, relying on the geographical advantage, there is no problem in defending the Yin Yin. The next step is how to pacify or subdue the Ma family beautifully.

   "Here!" Song Xian agreed. Last night, there were not enough people, and it was done in the dark. If it wasn't dark today, it would be easier to do it.

   Jiang Xu and Jiang Jie bowed towards Zhang Liao, turned and left.

Zhang Liao looked at the corpses that had been brought back, the danger was gone, and when there was no one around, he felt relieved, and he couldn't hold back any longer, and his eyes began to turn red. If you want to say that the person who has the deepest relationship with these soldiers is the He brought these soldiers out with one hand. Since Luoyang, he has eaten and lived with these soldiers. On the battlefield, he can kill the retreating soldiers without hesitation, but when he is on the battlefield, he looks at these soldiers who are with him day and night. Zhang Liao felt that his heart was cut by a knife when such a guest died in a foreign country, especially because many people here were actually killed by his knife. The feeling of helplessness and guilt intertwined, it was difficult for others to feel the same.

   After a long time, Zhang Liao had calmed down a little bit, and just now he recruited a few people to bury the bodies of these soldiers. Although they couldn't take them back, they couldn't let these brothers expose their corpses to the wilderness.

   As for those Ma Jiajun corpses outside the city, it was simple, they were piled together and burned with a fire.
