Liu Yu had changed his position and sat back under a hidden sentry tower. Murong Lan was still following him, but now they no longer set up their bows and fired arrows. Looking at the entrance, the situation under the city was clear. The tide of Tianshi Taoists rushed towards the city wall again, because the city ditch had been filled in early. This time the attacking Taoists were carrying ladders and pushing Rushing cars, these conventional siege equipment can be used. Compared with the first group of thousands of people who almost used their lives to directly pile up the wall of corpses, it is a lot of progress.
Murong Lan curled up her lips: "Thousands of people died in exchange for filling a ditch. Brother Lang, is it really worth it?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "These monster thieves have no humanity. The first wave of people who rushed into the city were originally the people of Wu. After being robbed, they believed these monsters and thought they were invulnerable. They usually relied on this to fight against state and county officers and soldiers." The bravery of blood can really charge down. When attacking some small towns with short walls, charging like this, and adding that there are believers in the city who should open the city gate, there is no disadvantage. The more this happens, the more I believe that I am really good. They are so invulnerable that their belief was shaken by the attack we just dealt, and they even had to threaten Yao Sheng with his family to force them to return to attack the city. However, this has proved that the momentum of this group of demon thieves has weakened. , from a military point of view, it is no longer possible to attack by force."
Murong Lan bit her lip: "These monster thieves regard human life as nothing, thousands of people are just used to fill the ditch. The second formation that follows just steps on the corpses of the previous comrades and crosses the ditch to formally attack. The city wall is just for these people in the second formation. I am afraid that they no longer believe in the nonsense about immortals being invulnerable and being sincere. What is the purpose of an army that has lost morale and wants to attack by force?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "The picture shows the city gate. When I built Juzhang City, I deliberately left the city gate as a weak point. I used a thin and broken wooden door, and let the walls on both sides stretch forward to form a urn city for protection. The city gate, this is a strategy to lure the enemy, if you encounter a famous general, you will naturally not be fooled, but among the demon thieves, it cannot be said that there are no famous generals, but it is definitely not this Yao Sheng."
"He was the chief protector during Sun Tai's time, and he can be regarded as an older generation of demon thieves. Since the three brothers Sun En came to power, these old thieves have been squeezed out and are eager to make meritorious deeds. You also said that those three guys have made new achievements recently and defeated Beifu. The third general of the army, Yao Sheng, definitely doesn’t want the three of them to lead his army to attack Juzhang City, so he must take it himself.”
"What the demon thieves rely on is nothing more than the large number of people and the lack of fear of death. If they can't attack today, they will be afraid in the future, and they will no longer believe those lies about the invulnerability of immortals, and they are even less likely to succeed. Therefore, Yao Sheng will not retreat. He will We will devote all our troops to storm Juzhang, and the breakthrough point will be the city gate!"
Murong Lan breathed a long sigh of relief: "I see, then why don't you strengthen the defense at the city gate? If Yao Sheng, regardless of everything, relies on the accumulation of human lives, rushes hard or even attacks the city gate with fire, won't he be able to break through? ? Once the city gate is broken, demon thieves swarm into the city, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with them."
Liu Yu smiled and said: "So, Yao Sheng's strategy is to use a large number of soldiers and horses to attack the city wall, forcing me to invest the main force in this section of the city wall. If there is a melee on the city wall, naturally I will no longer be able to use bows and arrows to attack the monsters in the urn city. A thief, and he will take advantage of this moment to lead the real elite of the main force to attack the city gate. Whether it is a forced charge or a fire attack, he will break the city gate in an instant, and then he can drive straight in. "
Murong Lan nodded: "So, you let the ferocious dragon, Xiao Zhong, who are the fiercest in melee combat, stay at the city gate to prevent the enemy from attacking the city gate?"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Ai Qin, help me keep an eye on this place. Dao regulations, signal flags, all Beifu Army soldiers retreat from the city wall, gather behind the city gate, let Shen Qingzhi, Shen Linzi, Shen Yuanzi and the others , command the militia men everywhere to fight against the demon thieves on the wall."
Liu Daogui waved the signal flag and said: "Brother, can the militia alone on the city wall withstand it? What if the city falls?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "You have to believe that the combat effectiveness of these servants of Wu's local tycoons, although they are militia, is still much stronger than the untrained followers who are directly recruited from the common people in Guizhou. Advantage, three thousand militiamen are enough to stop thirty thousand believers."
At this point, Liu Yu paused: "Besides, how can we get Yao Sheng to take the bait without showing the melee at the top of the city?"
Murong Lan smiled slightly: "I will help you keep an eye on the city here, and the Taoist regulations will stay here to raise the flag. However, will Yao Sheng really attack it personally like you?"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "He will definitely do it. He is famous for his bravery among the demon thieves. He has also killed many generals with his own hands. Attacking the city gate is the decisive factor in this battle. He will never stay." To others, he must do it himself, but he will not attack in a big way. He must take advantage of the chaos and rush in from the crowd with the elite of the Chinese army. Aiqin, your observation skills are unparalleled. Watch now. Those who are closely guarding the demon thief army, especially Yao Sheng."
Murong Lan nodded, with a gleam in his eyes: "It's impossible to replace him with a disguise even if he's a big guy. Don't worry, I've been paying attention to his movements. If necessary, I will also come from the top of the city." help you."
Liu Yu turned around and walked towards the city: "Tao regulations, follow your sister-in-law's order to raise the flag."
Standing in front of the city gate, listening to the murderous aura outside, Liu Yu looked relaxed, and his eyes swept across the young, immature, excited, and slightly worried faces under the city. Meng Longfu kept licking his lips. , this was not his first time on the battlefield. Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Raptor, how many do you want to kill today?"
Meng Longfu laughed and waved the big halberd in his hand: "I will kill as many thieves as they come in. Brother Jinu, if you come down in person, can't you trust me, the fierce dragon?"
Liu Zhong shook his head: "Brother Jinu, it's not good to rely on the militia to hold up the city wall now. The city gate is not so easy to lose. If you hold up the city wall, you can still shoot the enemy troops attacking the city gate from left to right. Isn't it better? Better."
A rough voice sounded angrily: "Brother Jinu, today's killing was so unpleasant. Not a single one of the demon thieves in the first group came to the top of the city. I didn't kill anyone. This second group was good." We can go to the city, but you pull us back, what exactly are you planning to do?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly and looked at the man who was speaking, a strong man in his twenties or seventies who was over eight feet tall with a sinewy face and said, "Tan Shao, do you really want to kill someone?"
