Seeing the enemy Zhang Yan turn around and return to the city, Wei Yan smiled coldly, signaled Chen Dao to withdraw, waved his hand to pull the speed car forward, and discharged it towards the Lingshi entrance.
Among them, the Kecheng heavy crossbow was tightly wrapped in wheat straw, adding a mysterious and unpredictable majesty that was terrifying.
Returning to the city, Zhang Yan's eyes were instantly attracted to the thing wrapped in wheat straw, and an uneasy fear arose in her heart. Dajing's military parade was spread all over the world, especially the two new types of equipment. Zhang Yan had naturally heard of it, but had never seen it. The thing in front of him might be one of the two new types of equipment. , which made him feel nervous.
Wei Yan looked at Zhang Yan from afar and sneered: "If I guess right, you must be Zhang Yan of the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army!"
Zhang Yan looked at Wei Yan: "Are you Wei Yan?"
Wei Yan shouted: "Now that you know my name, how dare you attack my Dajing city and kill my Dajing generals! Humph! Even if you surrender now, it's too late. I will kill your head to avenge the blood revenge of my Dajing generals!" !" Then he ordered: "Show your weapons!"
The soldiers immediately removed the wheat straw wrapped around Kecheng's heavy crossbow, and the towering heavy crossbow cart appeared in the eyes of the Black Tiger Army on the top of the city. The arrow with a faint cold light was aimed at the city head, making the soldiers feel a chill in their hearts.
Everyone knew clearly that this thing was a heavy-fire crossbow with a range of thousands of cloth. The distance between the two sides was currently only a hundred steps. To make it even more terrifying, if you were shot by this thing, you would definitely die.
Zhang Yan's face turned cold and her eyes were fixed on Kecheng Heavy Crossbow.
He knew that the soldiers were afraid of such a thing, but they had no way to defend it. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It is worthy of being called the Kecheng Heavy Crossbow. It makes people unable to defend it!"
"preparation!"
While Zhang Yan was still thinking wildly, Wei Yan had drawn out his sword and shouted loudly: "Put -!"
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo-!"
The terrifying air-tearing whistling sound carried by Kecheng's heavy crossbow flew toward the Lingshi mouth as fast as lightning. Thirty giant arrows in succession instantly formed a sharp wall of arrows and galloped away.
Before the giant arrow arrived, the fierce wind had already hurt his cheeks.
The muscles on Zhang Yan's cheeks jumped unnoticed, and her heartbeat was suddenly grabbed. Looking at the roaring giant arrow, her eyebrows almost rose into hair in shock, and she hurriedly shouted: "Avoid the arrow! Avoid the arrow quickly!"
Before he could finish his words, the arrow came to kill him.
The powerful and terrifying giant arrows easily penetrated the enemy's corpses. The huge inertial force directly drove the enemy's corpses to fly up, and they were deeply nailed to the gate tower behind. More of them flew directly out of the city. Fall hard.
After the roar of thirty giant arrows stopped, the enemy army fell into deep silence in the huge shock. Their brains were blank, their eyes were dull, and they even forgot where and when they were deep inside.
Not only the enemy troops, but also the soldiers of the Jing Army were deeply shocked.
This was the first time that the Kecheng Heavy Crossbow was used on the battlefield. They only knew that the power of this object must be good, but they didn't know how strong it was. The previous battle showed the power of the Kecheng Heavy Crossbow, and they opened their mouths in shock. .
Fortunately, he is the Jing army and not the Wei army.
Chen Dao and Tian Jing were not present during the military parade. Naturally, they had never seen the huge scene of three Kecheng heavy crossbows shooting ninety arrows at the same time during the military parade. Just what they saw in front of them was deeply shocked.
Wei Yan calmly waved his hand: "Attack the city!"
"kill!"
The infantry carried a simple ladder and headed towards the Lingshikou. The flower-edged armor-piercing crossbow and the archers shot together to cover, and the Kecheng heavy crossbow began to prepare for the second round of shooting.
Suddenly, the sound of arrows piercing the air mixed with the roar of murderous shouts was deafening outside the city.
Zhang Yan suddenly realized this and hurriedly ordered: "Counterattack! The archers are ready to counterattack! Everyone is ready to defend the city! Hurry!"
The fierce roar awakened the Wei army officers, who hurriedly climbed out of the parapet and began to fight back.
After a night of sneak attacks and urgent repairs to the city wall, the Wei army officers and soldiers were unable to do what they wanted after leaving. The battle had just begun and they were already exhausted and had no strength. Jing's army was not much better. They rushed from hundreds of miles away for reinforcements and began to attack the city after less than an hour's rest.
The battle between the two sides lasted only an hour and ended.
Although Zhang Yanjun did not have advanced weapons to assist him, he still made comprehensive defensive preparations and had enough defensive materials. Jingjun's army attacked the city for an hour but did not capture the city.
Seeing that the soldiers were tired, Tian Jing suggested a truce and a rest before fighting again.
Not to mention the soldiers, Wei Yan was also a little tired and couldn't bear it anymore, so he ordered Jin Jin to withdraw his troops and set up camp fifteen miles outside the city to rest.
…
Runan, Wei army camp.
Xi Zhicai's secret letter was rushed to Cao Cao for 800 miles. After reading the content of the letter carefully, Cao Cao leaned his head on the back of the chair and tapped the armrest with his fingers to think carefully.
Going to war with Zhang Xiu's equal strength made me feel a little uneasy. Looking back on the fight between the two for so many years, I never got any benefits from Zhang Xiu, and I suffered a lot from the defeat.
But the current situation has changed so rapidly that Chang'an City is no longer attackable. Xi Zhicai's 40,000 troops went south to attack Zhang Xiu. All he had to do was attract Zhang Xiu's full attention.
Somehow, Cao Cao had a bad premonition. This premonition vaguely seemed to have started when he went south. Now that the situation has changed, the uneasy premonition in his heart is like a strong seed that has begun to take root and sprout.
However, the world is still uncertain, and Cao Cao's heart is as firm as iron and will not be easily shaken.
Zhang Xiu?
A faint sneer appeared at the corner of Cao Cao's mouth. In the end, he can only become a stepping stone for his own rise.
At this time, Guo Jia walked in.
Cao Cao sat up and placed Xi Zhicai's secret letter on the table: "This is the secret letter Xi Zhicai sent urgently. You can read it first."
"Sent from... Guanzhong?" Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao in surprise. When Cao Cao nodded, he immediately picked up the letter and read it. While reading, his brain began to spin rapidly and think.
The accident at Lingshikou caused them to lose the opportunity to attack Chang'an, and Xi Zhicai had to risk going south to attack Zhang Xiu's army. However, it is not easy to successfully flank Zhang Xiu's army. Three prerequisites must be met.
The first is to be able to successfully attack Wuguan. This is an important condition among the three prerequisites. If this one cannot be achieved, there is no need to think about the rest.
Second, the Runan Wei army was able to attract all of Zhang Xi's attention, forcing an empty space behind him to give Xi Zhicai a chance.
The third is whether Chang'an's Jia Xu can survive. If Jia Xu finds out, he will definitely try his best to let the army from other routes go south to rescue Zhang Xiu. When the time comes, the situation will be unpredictable.
Seeing Guo Jia thinking deeply, Cao Cao said slowly: "I think this plan is feasible. I will join forces with Liu Bei and attack Zhang Xiu from three sides. This battle will make him alive or dead."
Guo Jia also agreed with this plan, but the enemy opposite was the powerful and shrewd Zhang Xiu, so he had to be cautious.
