Chapter 167 Three-way Attack

As soon as I went, the military actions of Cao Cao's side were clearly known by Chen Gong. In Chen Gong's eyes, the military actions of Cao Cao's side were transparent, like a naked woman. Therefore, when Cao Cao led a large army to fight against Zhang Xiu in Wancheng, Chen Gong instigated Lv Bu to launch an attack on Cao Cao's old nest Guzhou City. When he actually attacked the city, Lv Bu got accurate information from the city of Gongzhou City: the generals who guarded the city had ordered the residents in the city to leave the former residence, which showed that Cao's army had planned to give up Gongzhou City...

After getting this accurate news, Lv Bu was confident about the steps to deploy and attack the city: first launch a siege battle to consume Liu Bei's troops, and then wait for a few days until the people of Gozhou City are almost retreating, and then launch an attack. Lv Bu did this and was not afraid of Yuan Shu's fault afterwards, because once Cao Cao was eliminated, Liu Bei was the force that Yuan Shu was determined to eradicate. These factors are the real reason for Lv Bu's strange behavior.

However, Liu Bei's side can't know these inside stories. However, it is indeed doubtful that Lv Bu, who has always been hot-blooded and aggressive, can host the siege so calmly. Liu Bei felt strange, but he couldn't think about the strangeness. At this time, Liu Bei began to fantasize again: how wonderful it would be if he had a super counselor around him.

At the same time, in the city of Gozhou, at the gate of the north of the city, Dian Wei personally bid farewell to the civil officer Xun Yu and others. These civil servants were the last to leave the city of Gozhou.

Changshi Xun Yu looked at Dian Wei and said with a smile, "Dian Wei, this Lv Bu is really lazy. He knows the actual situation of Gongzhou City, and he doesn't even perform the bluff..."

"Ha ha, Xun Changshi, this also shows that Lv Bu does hide his evil intentions. Don't have any intention!" Dian Wei responded with a smile. Often with super counselors, Dian Wei, who is reckless by nature, also has a certain level of strategy, and can also talk to wise people such as Xun Yu.

"Uh-huh!" Xun Yu nodded to Dian Wei with appreciation, and then said to Dian Wei again eagerly, "Dian Wei, when the enemy attacks the city again and is almost ready to deal with it, you can retreat. Don't fight with the enemy!"

"No! Please rest assured, Xun Changshi!" Dian Weedun said to Xun Yu for the first time.

After Xun Yu looked at Dian Wei with satisfaction, he turned to the carriage. After that, under the escort of 2,000 Cao troops, four Cuiluan cars rushed in the direction of Xuchang. It was not until four Cuiluan cars and the figures of 2,000 soldiers disappeared from sight that Dian Wei took the horse and rushed into the city and went straight to the east of the city.

At this time, the huge city of Gozhou was empty, and there was no one, not even a stray dog. Hungry rats are running all over the street. Dian Wei knew that today was the day to win and lose with the enemy: last night, Cao Cao had successfully got rid of the pursuers all the way and went straight to Xuchang City through Gongzhou City. Today, Dian Wei waited for Lv Bu to lead the army to launch an attack. At this time, the main core members of Cao Cao's side wanted to see what medicine was sold in Lv Bu's gourd, if it hadn't for this curious idea. Cao Cao would not let Dian Wei lead nearly 10,000 soldiers and thousands of righteous soldiers against Lv Bu's siege at all. The Cao army had time to retreat and left an empty city for Lv Bu.

At the same time, outside the Dongcheng of Gozhou, Lv Liu's coalition camp. The drums that had been silent for a few days sounded earth-shakingly again. In the sound of the heavy drums, Lv Liu's allied forces rushed out of the gate of the camp like a flood that broke the dike, and rushed to the towering wall in the distance in the sound of shouts.

The attacking army is still divided into three routes, and it is led by three generals: Liu Bei, Lv Bu and Zhang Liao.

The war drums rumbled, the horns whistling, and the dust rolled. The infantry phalanx carrying siege equipment shouted, crossed the pontoon bridge on the moat, and charged with life and death.

For the first time to attack the city, Lv Bu did not participate in the attack all the way, and this siege, Lv Bu seemed to be full of energy. For the first time, he waved the square halberd to control the red rabbit horse, and rushed across the suspension bridge on the moat like lightning. Other iron cavalry also rushed across the suspension bridge.

Suddenly under force, the suspension bridge began to tremble and shake constantly. At this time, Lv Bu ran along the official road and rushed straight to the towering gate. A kilometer away from the gate, Cao Jun, who was guarding the city, calmly threw 40 catties of stones. Lv Bu jumped up from the red rabbit horse with contemptuous expression in the face of the roaring Shi Yun. In mid-air, Lv Bu waved the round square sky painting halberd freely, and the dark air passed by, and the stones that roared quickly shattered into powder one after another, silently.

Lv Bu floated in mid-air and waved the divine soldier Fang Tianhua halberd, and easily tore a crack in the brocade-like stone cloud.

And his riding red rabbit horse faces the stones roaring through the air. In the face of the suddenly darkened sky, it still looks calm and is not moved at all. It is like entering no one's land, spreading its four hooves and tacitly running to the place where Lv Bu fell. At this time, Lv Bu was exhausted in mid-air, and his figure was like fallen leaves falling to the red rabbit horse.

After a while, the red rabbit horse rushed to 400 meters away from the gate with Lv Bu. At this distance, the stone is not lethal to them. The rows of stones just roared over their heads and attacked the enemy in the area 800 to 1,200 meters away from the gate. Just as Lv Bu wanted to continue to charge, suddenly a harsh sound of arrows burst into the air. He stared and saw a group of giant arrows the size of a halberd shooting at his place. At that moment, a strong murderous intention locked Lv Bu's idea. Shit, when did Cao Cao have such a fierce secret weapon? Lv Bu couldn't help taking a deep breath.

This novel bed crossbow is the latest invention of a master craftsman recruited by Cao Cao. This kind of bed crossbow is full of strength and can shoot an ordinary halberd as an arrow, with a range of 400 meters. This kind of crossbow is powerful and domineering, but it has been produced for a long time. In the past few months, Cao Cao has only owned ten new bed crossbows. Such as the invincible Thunderbolt car, the new bed crossbow can be manufactured and invented, and can enter the historical stage, which are the inevitable products of the war years. All this is due to the war. For new weapons, war is that the parent body is a hotbed, which plays an indispensable role.

In the face of the surging murderous intention and the attack of the surging giant arrows, Lv Bu stabilized his mind and shook the divine soldier Fang Tianhua halberd to meet with all his strength... In the sound of "banging" metal strikes, Lv Bu's arms, who were born with divine power, were also trembled. The huge arrow that was hit by his divine power was reflected in the iron cavalry phalanx of dozens of meters behind him. The vigorous giant arrow easily shot through the heavy iron cavalry's and solid armor. After the "poof" sound, a tragic howl came from the iron cavalry phalanx.

In an instant, dozens of iron cavalrymen died under the giant arrow. These poor children struggled to escape the blow of Shi Yun, but were finally ruthlessly shot by the giant arrow. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry was indeed fierce. The tragic death of their companions did not scare them. Instead, they were high-spirited, and the wolf howled followed Lv Bu and continued to charge. And the infantry phalanx composed of those volunteers and clan soldiers is also a fearless charge. Because Lv Bu personally rushed forward, they have no reason to be afraid of fear. They can only forget life and death and move forward bravely.

The dense group of giant arrows successfully blocked Lv Bu's momentum of progress. The brave Lv Bu struggled hard in place, and each time he used 90% of his strength to hit the giant arrows. In the effective distance of the continuous stone thrower attack, 40 catties of stone covered the sky and roared, causing great damage to Lv Bu's infantry phalanx.

Although facing the threat of death, the soldiers of the infantry phalanx were not afraid of fear, their speed of charge slowed down significantly. The cavalry phalanx had rushed behind Lv Bu, and then Lv Bu quickly flew to the two sides with the center. In this way, standing in the distance and watching, Lv Bu's back seemed to open a pair of wings.

Because Cao's army guarding the city only had ten new crossbows, when Cao's army reloaded the gap of the giant arrows, Lv Bu rushed to more than 200 meters away from the gate. At this distance, Lv Bu could shoot Cao's army on the wall with bows and arrows. When Cao Bing, who operated the new bed crossbow, was still working, Lv Bu stood on the back of the red rabbit horse with one foot and shot them accurately with a two-stone iron tire bow.

Dian Wei, who is in the gate, can only watch Lv Bu kill Cao Bing in a safe area. He is anxious and sweaty: there is no other reason. Dian Wei is skilled in martial arts, but he is not proficient in bows and arrows, and other Cao generals' bow and arrow skills are less than 200 meters, and they can't hurt Lv Bu with arrow skills at all. Most of the Xiliang iron cavalry are skilled in bows and horses. Their archery skills are superb, and even dozens of soldiers' archery skills are even better than Lv Bu's, only the first line of archers.

Dian Wei saw that he could not stop the bow and arrow attack of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. In order to avoid too many casualties of the Cao army, he ordered the soldiers around him to dodge temporarily. And he himself was an arrow easily shot by waving a double halberd.

At this time, Lv Bu also took time to see the slow movement of the infantry phalanx. He turned his face and shouted at the infantry phalanx hundreds of meters away: "You are not allowed to retreat, disperse and rush forward! Otherwise, you will be killed! When you rush to the root of the city wall, the enemy's stones and giant arrows will be lethal..."

Under Lv Bu's reminder, the infantry carried the siege equipment and rushed to the city wall. At this time, under the command of Dian Wei, Cao's shield soldiers appeared near the new bed crossbow. They protected themselves with shoulder-length shields and the soldiers operating the new bed crossbow. At this time, under the manipulation of Cao's army, the new bed crossbow adjusted its position and relaunched. Hundreds of huge arrows roared through the air and shot at the enemy 300 meters away from the wall. In the face of the huge arrows fired quickly, except for Lv Bu himself, the other generals could not resist at all, and suddenly hundreds of iron cavalry were killed under the giant arrows. In order to avoid a large number of casualties, Lv Bu ordered his subordinates to retreat and push them to a safe area. At the same time, Lv Bu ordered the infantry to continue to attack the city. Soon, more than ten cloud ladders were built on the wall. Soon, there was an infantryman's short knife to quickly climb the ladder. Finally, the attacking side and the short soldiers of the Cao army guarding the city fought hand-to-hand.

The overall situation of the attack on the middle road had been determined, and Lv Bu took the time to look at the other second road, which made him very happy: Liu Bei and Zhang Liao also put the ladder on the towering wall as they wished.
