- Sun Quan's face darkened and he suddenly became depressed.
Even when he heard Chen Wu¡¯s information, he suddenly had the illusion that there was a pair of eyes behind him, staring at him all the time.
And the owner of those eyes is Yan Liang.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ¡°
Sun Quan was astonished, and a chill surged through his heart quietly, making him tremble all over, and he couldn't help but shudder.
"Hateful¡ª¡ª"
Sun Quan clenched his fists and hit the table with all his strength again, as if he wanted to vent all his anger on his fists.
However, after the anger, Sun Quan still had to face this cruel reality.
Sun Yu was being attacked fiercely, and Chai Sang's troops could not be mobilized. The maximum number of troops mobilized from Jiangdong was only five thousand. Otherwise, once those Shanyue in the mountains rebelled again, Jiangdong would not have enough troops to suppress it.
As for the Shouchun front line, only 20,000 troops and horses have been mobilized, and they have to defend such a vast area. Sun Quan would not dare to dispatch another soldier unless it was absolutely necessary.
Weighing all the factors, it seems that there is no other way except to draw troops from the camp.
??And 10,000 soldiers have been transferred to Lu Su from the camp. If the troops are transferred again, the advantage over Fankou Yan's army will be greatly weakened.
At that time, it also meant that apart from waiting for Lu Su to defeat the enemies in Ai County and lead his army back to join him, Sun Quan could only rely on the troops in his hands. Then he will not be able to complete the plan to defeat Yan Liang's main force alone.
What Sun Quan doesn¡¯t want to face the most is waiting.
Now that the autumn harvest is approaching, once winter drags on, the shortcomings of insufficient food and grass will become more and more obvious. At that time, it will be twice as difficult to defeat Yan Liang, who has sufficient food and grass and relies on Jingzhou's rear.
And all this is exactly what Yan Liang saw.
Sun Quan's mind was in a daze. Yan Liang's mocking face seemed to appear, mocking his dilemma with a proud sneer.
I hate it to the core!
At this moment, this is Sun Quan¡¯s only feeling for Yan Liang.
After weighing and thinking for a long time, Sun Quan finally loosened his clenched fists and let out a long, feeble sigh.
Xu Sheng also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Sun Quan finally kept his calm. He didn't do anything impulsive out of anger.
"My lord, what about Yuzhang" Xu Sheng asked cautiously.
Sun Quan stood with his hands behind his back. He said silently: "Give me the order to send another 10,000 troops to Lu Zijing and order him to join 20,000 troops to regain Ai County as soon as possible."
Ten thousand soldiers and horses!
This number was five thousand more than the number of troops originally planned to be mobilized from Chaisang. Xu Sheng knew that Sun Quan had completely given up on his plan to defeat Fankou quickly, and simply sent more troops to Lu Su to destroy them first. Let¡¯s talk about the enemy invading Ai County.
Xu Sheng understood Sun Quan¡¯s intentions. He quickly cupped his hands and said, "My lord is wise. In this way, Governor Lu has an army of more than 20,000 people. It is expected that within a few days, the enemy who invaded Ai County will be defeated. When the time comes, he will return to join our main force and we will definitely defeat him." Defeat the enemy in Fankou in one fell swoop.¡±
Xu Sheng¡¯s imagination. Sun Quan's mood improved a little, and he nodded slightly. A bit of confidence finally flashed between his clouded brows.
¡¡
Xi'an County.
Lu Su waited here for three days. What was waiting for him was the news that Chaisang was attacked and Sun Yu could not divide his troops.
This news really surprised Lu Su, because it meant that without Sun Yu's troops, he would only have 10,000 troops on hand, plus the 5,000 troops transferred from Jiangdong. With a crowd of 15,000, it is not easy to defeat Ai County, which is defended by 7,000 powerful enemies.
But soon, Lu Su's mood improved. Although he did not wait for Chai Sang's troops, he did wait for 10,000 elite troops from the camp. Four days later, 5,000 troops from Jiangdong also arrived in Xi'an.
So, Lu Su led this army of 25,000 people, marched westward along Xiushui, and rushed towards Ai County in a mighty manner.
One day later, the Wu army arrived east of Ai County and had set up camp. Lu Su asked the entire army to rest for the night. At dawn the next day, he led his entire army out and prepared to attack Ai County.
The autumn air is crisp and the sky is high and the clouds are clear. It is a good weather for fighting for one's life.
At the east gate of Ai County, Wei Yan was wearing heavy armor, holding a long sword in his hand, and his towering body stood tall like an iron tower.
His eyes were like blades, and he scanned the mighty enemy troops outside the city coldly.
The black soldiers, the sea of ??flags billowing like waves, the swords and guns as dense as forests, the Wu army of 25,000 people arrayed in front of them. Looking around, the densely packed heads were like black clouds covering the sky and the earth, and it was impossible to see at a glance. to the end.
"The Wu Dogs have actually come with so many soldiers and horses. It seems that I, Wei Yan, am indeed worthy of your fear. Okay, very good -"
The corner of Wei Yan's mouth slanted upward, revealing an arrogant sneer.
Facing this boundless enemy that was almost four times as big as himself, Wei Yan not only showed no trace of fear, but instead felt an ecstatic impulse.
Come on, the more you come, the better. I, Wei Yan, rely on you to become famous all over the world.
Wei Yan clenched his sword tightly, his cold expression becoming even more arrogant.
But outside the city, Lu Su's expression was not as solemn as that of a party member.
The 25,000 elite navy soldiers under his command did not give Lu Su full confidence. When he saw Yan Jun's army in full swing at the head of Aixian County, his original confidence in winning was quickly weakened. A lot.
Lu Su knew very well that although his soldiers were elite and invincible on the water and in the world, they were not good at attacking cities on land.
On the opposite side, Keyan's army in Ai County was an elite land war soldier who had experienced the cruelest baptism of war against powerful enemies in the Central Plains such as Cao Cao, Yuan Tan, and Liu Bei.
"The enemy is very strong. It seems that this battle will not be easy" A trace of worry flashed through Lu Su's heart.
However, at this point, Lu Su has no way out.
At that moment, his eyebrows narrowed, and his expression suddenly became stern. He took a deep breath, raised his whip and shouted loudly: "All the troops, attack -"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
More than ten big cowhide drums started beating at the same time, and the thunderous sound of the drums rose into the sky.
The flags were waving, the cavalry carrying orders galloped back and forth, and Lu Su's attack order was issued.
The siege team of more than ten square formations and 15,000 men of the former army, led by Dong Xi, began to advance towards the east gate of Ai County with heavy steps.
At the front of the military formation, thousands of sword and shield bearers held up large pillars as high as one person, forming a tortoise-shell formation of iron walls, covering dozens of trench bridges, and advancing towards the city moat.
Wei Yan at the top of the city stared coldly at the approaching enemy troops, with no trace of emotion in his sharpened face.
Five hundred stepsthree hundred stepsone hundred steps
In the blink of an eye, Wu Jun¡¯s trench crossing team was within the range of the crossbows.
Wei Yanchang raised his sword forward and shouted in a deep voice: "Crossbowmen, release your arrows and shoot these Wu dogs hard for me!"
When the order was given, more than a thousand crossbowmen who had already drawn their strings to take aim released their hands in response.
Amidst the ear-piercing buzzing sound, more than a thousand sharp arrows shot out of the air, carrying fierce force and pounced on the enemies below the city like locusts.
When the people of Wu below the city heard the sound of the strings ringing, they immediately raised their shields higher and shrank their bodies tighter for fear of being hit by sharp arrows.
Ding Ding Dang Dang~~
The sound of rain hitting the eaves suddenly started, and the arrows, as dense as locusts, rushed towards the large shield held high by the Wu people, and most of them were bounced away.
This generous and huge shield effectively provided protection for the Wu people, blocking almost most of the incoming arrows. Only a few arrows passed through the gaps in the shield formation, splashing scattered clouds of fire. The sound of screams.
The Wu people's advance was not delayed by the rain of arrows. Instead, they accelerated their advance. In just a moment, they arrived in front of the moat despite the rain of arrows.
The turtle-shaped shield formation split the chariot in the middle, and the Wu soldiers hiding in it pushed the trench bridge forward at high speed, intending to use this simple bridge-building equipment to build a wooden bridge on the moat that was several feet wide.
The originally impeccable shield formation also had flaws at this moment.
Wei Yan on the top of the city, with sharp eyes, keenly seized this opportunity in the blink of an eye.
¡°Change to the repeating crossbow¡ª¡ª¡± Wei Yan shouted.
With the order, the three hundred crossbowmen put down the ordinary crossbows in their hands and quickly replaced them with the Yuan Rong repeating crossbows that had been prepared long ago.
With the sound of a thousand birds flapping their wings, three hundred consecutive crossbows fired three thousand sharp arrows at the Wu army building the bridge in a matter of seconds.
The arrows penetrated the flaws in the Wu army's shield formation and struck like a violent storm. The screams rose like a tide. In the blink of an eye, six or seven hundred Wu people were struck by arrows and fell to the ground.
How terrifyingly dense, how terrifyingly lethal.
It was the first time in their lives that they had experienced the blow of such a terrifying weapon. The Wu army, who had been hit by a volley of crossbows, was all horrified.
Even thoughLu Su, who was watching the battle, saw the terrifying scene of three sharp arrows being shot out in an instant, and a hint of horror flashed across his originally calm face.
Hearing the screams of his soldiers and seeing Jiangdong's son, like a fragile straw, being easily swept to the ground by the strong wind of arrows from the crossbow, Lu Su's heart was as sharp as a knife.
He was originally wary of Yan Jun's repeated crossbows, so he specially launched a large shield front siege formation. However, he also knew that there would be flaws in building a trench bridge, and the death and injury of soldiers would inevitably occur.
Lu Su had no choice but to hope that his soldiers would be stronger and not be defeated by Yan Jun's repeated crossbows.
At the first moment when they were wildly fired by Liannu, the thousands of Wu troops were indeed frightened. However, as elite men, they relied on their strong will to suppress their fear and faced the rain of arrows, fighting to the death. Pushed up the trench bridge.
After all, the flaw only occurred in the blink of an eye. After Wu Ren withstood a round of repeated crossbow fire, he endured tenaciously and successfully erected dozens of trench bridges.
The road leading to the city wall is already clear.
Lu Su was overjoyed and shouted urgently: "The siege team, attack immediately¡ª¡ª"
The second drum sounded loudly, and the former army Dong received the order to attack and immediately gave the order to attack the city.
More than 10,000 Wu army siege teams, carrying ladders and pushing carts, began to shout and rush towards the east gate of Ai County.
Wei Yan, who was on the top of the city, still looked fearless. He swung his sword horizontally and snorted coldly, "Come on, Wu dogs, let me, Wei Yan, see what you are capable of!" - Didn't finish reading?
