"Mo Daojun? Why are Mo Daojun here? Aren't they supposed to be in Yanmen at this time?"
After finally getting the approximate troop allocation, Liu Yishui became a little restless.
Although he was not able to witness the previous battle in Chang'an City, he still learned the truth about that battle from the mouths of many people.
With the bravery of those Qiang slaves who were not afraid of death, there was no way they could take advantage, let alone the motley army he had put together temporarily.
"this......"
How does Wang Yanzhi know where these people came from?
Although the enemy forces totaled nearly 30,000 people, he didn't take them to heart at all. After all, they still had a small city in their hands, and 50,000 people guarding a county town. In his opinion, it was truly impregnable.
"Your Highness, so what if it's Mo Dao's army? Is it possible that they can still fly to the top of the city? We have 50,000 troops to defend the city, and we won't be afraid even if they come to 100,000 people!"
Wang Yanzhi said disapprovingly.
"You know what the hell! Give me the order to recruit civilians overnight, strengthen the city wall, demolish all the houses near the city wall, and put all the demolished rubble on the top of the city!"
Liu Yishui was too lazy to explain to him and started giving orders directly.
Being directly reprimanded by Liu Yishui in front of so many people, Wang Yanzhi's face was really green and red, but there was nothing he could do.
Although he is Liu Bi's confidant and can be regarded as an old soldier, after all, there has been no war in the entire Wu Kingdom for decades.
The battles he fought before were just bullying the natives in the mountains and forests. The combined number of troops on both sides was only about a few thousand at most.
Even though he heard everyone bragging about the power of Mo Daojun, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart.
As the saying goes, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and this is what we are talking about now.
How could he believe that a few thousand people could conquer a city without truly witnessing the terror of the Mo Dao Army?
But even though he felt uncomfortable, at this time, he could only make arrangements according to Liu Yishui's orders. After all, Liu Yishui was the chief general, and he was just the deputy general arranged by Liu Bi.
They had been busy all night on the city, and everyone was exhausted from top to bottom. The tense atmosphere filled everyone's hearts, making the people in the city full of panic.
After the Han army's camp sent out vigilant soldiers, everyone began to seize the time to rest.
In the morning of the next day, after having eaten the war meal early, Guan Fu directly led the soldiers of Modao Army out of the camp.
When they came, they brought more than 400 gunpowder bombs from Jinyang.
It's not that they don't want to stay longer, it's because they are in a hurry along the way, and this thing is very inconvenient to carry for safety reasons.
After all, if there is a bump along the way, it might explode directly, which would be tragic.
When this thing explodes, it doesn't distinguish between its own people and its enemies.
For the sake of safety, Guan Fu specially selected a dozen soldiers. They did not even carry Mo Dao, but specialized in carrying gunpowder bombs.
"Dong——"
"Dong——"
"Dong——"
The soldiers worked nervously all night, and Liu Yishui lay on the bed tossing and turning, and did not fall asleep until dawn.
But not long after he fell asleep, he heard the sound of war drums coming from outside the window.
"Where did the sound of war drums come from?"
Liu Yishui was so excited that he jumped up from the bed.
"Reporting to the Young Master, the Han army has begun to attack!"
Several personal guards outside the door hurriedly came up to help Liu Yishui get dressed. When he hurried to the city wall, he realized that the Han army had already been prepared.
Twenty thousand cavalry held down the position, and in the middle were all the Mo Dao troops. The rumbling war drums kept ringing. Although they had not attacked yet, the chilling atmosphere already made everyone feel breathless.
The sun in the sky was covered by dark clouds, and the strong wind that came from nowhere made it difficult to open one's eyes. The soldiers on the top of the city, holding their swords and guns in their hands, were already covered in cold sweat.
This kind of thing is really not to blame on them. After all, many of them have never seen blood until now.
"What's going on? Are they really planning to fly up?"
Looking at the prepared Han troops, Liu Yishui was a little confused.
When you come to attack a city, you should at least bring a ladder or something, right?
Even if your war horse is indeed superior, it can't jump up a two-foot-high city wall.
"My subordinates don't know what they are up to, but as long as we don't leave the city, it shouldn't be difficult to defend the city!"
When he saw those Han cavalry, Wang Yanzhi's eyes twitched. These were all fine Hun horses.
Compared with these Han cavalry, the cavalry of our own cavalry are just fucking donkeys.
When he saw these cavalry, he immediately gave up the idea of going out of the city to fight in the field. After all, at this time, with the tens of thousands of recruits in his hands, there was no difference between going out to fight in the city and dying.
"The Han army is mighty!"
Guan Fu sneered and struck out with the Mo Dao in his hand.
"The Han army is mighty!"
"The Han army is mighty!"
The soldiers of the Modao Army behind him shouted the war cry in unison, and then followed Guan Fu and charged forward.
Seeing them rushing over like this, Liu Yishui looked confused and really didn't understand what they were planning to do.
Is it possible that they can still split the city wall directly with the Mo Dao in their hands?
"Master, do you want to shoot an arrow?"
Seeing the Mo Dao army rushing closer and closer, Wang Yanzhi asked quickly.
"Shoot an arrow? What's the use of shooting an arrow? Wait until they get close and hit them with rocks!"
Liu Yishui knew that all the armors worn by these Mo Dao soldiers were iron armor. Shooting them with arrows at this time was just a waste of time.
I want to see what tricks these people are playing here.
The defenders on the top of the city moved large rocks and waited silently for Modao's army to arrive.
"Smash it for me!"
After Mo Dao's army rushed to the city, Liu Yishui gave an order, and rocks from the top of the city immediately rained down.
I have to say that this did cause a lot of trouble for Mo Daojun. After all, such a large stone fell from a height and hit people. Even if they were wearing iron armor, they would be hit!
But even so, there were still a dozen soldiers of Modao Army rushing into the city gate hole against the rocks.
"withdraw!"
After seeing them lighting the match ropes on the gunpowder bombs, Guan Fu didn't want to fight anymore. He turned around and led the soldiers of Modao Army back the same way faster than when they came.
"They just left?"
Liu Yishui on the top of the city was even more confused. What was going on?
