"Pass this on, the sword and shield soldiers will cover me, and the soldiers behind will give me a bag of sand to fill up these pits." Chi You said calmly, staring at Chen Liu not far away.
On that day, Chi You did not choose any more generals, but directly began preparations to attack the city.
Although the Yellow Turbans have the two top generals Chi You and Xiang Yu, the Han army also has two generals, Xing Tian and Jiang Song, who are not weaker than the Yellow Turbans.
It can be said that in terms of the top warriors, the two sides are on an equal footing.
But among the generals below these people, the Yellow Turbans were much worse. Xue Rengui, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xue Ju, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Da Shi Ci... these people are far from comparable to the remaining generals of the Yellow Turbans.
Therefore, if it is a fighting general, the Yellow Turban's chance of winning is not high, and this is the most direct reason why Chi You directly started to attack the city.
"Send the order, the archers start throwing arrows." Looking at the Yellow Turban soldiers starting to fill the holes below the city, Li Xiang said coldly on the city tower.
Now, the four lieutenant generals of the Han Dynasty each guard one side. Lu Zhi was in charge of the east gate, Huangfu Song was in charge of the west, and Zhu Jun was in charge of defending the south gate. As for the north where Chi You was mainly attacking, Lu Zhi gave it to Li Xiang to defend.
In fact, Lu Zhi, who was supposed to be the commander of the first army, came to fight against the Yellow Turban commander Chi You. However, Lu Zhi believed that he was no match for Chi You, so he handed Chi You over to Li Xiang to deal with. Of course, rather than handing it over to Li Xiang, it is better to say that Lu Zhi believed in Xue Rengui, who was under Li Xiang.
"Boo...hoo...boo..."
Tens of thousands of arrows were fired at them. Although they were protected by sword and shield soldiers, the Yellow Turbans still killed and injured hundreds of soldiers in an instant.
"Send the order, all soldiers spread out and don't stand in one place." Looking at the miserable state of the yellow scarf soldiers in front of him, Chi You frowned and ordered.
"Everyone used sandbags to protect my chest." Zhang Dingbian added immediately.
After two orders, the situation of the Yellow Turbans immediately improved a lot, and the screams on the battlefield were also reduced a lot.
However, sandbags are still limited in size. Although these yellow scarf soldiers used sandbags to protect their chests, they still could not protect other parts of their bodies.
The lucky ones just passed by and suffered some skin injuries. The unlucky ones were hit in the arms and thighs. Under the severe pain, these soldiers subconsciously dropped the sandbags and held their wounds, but then most of these soldiers were killed by the arrows fired from them.
"With the order, the archers stop throwing and start shooting accurately."
Seeing that the casualties of the Yellow Turban soldiers began to decrease under the two orders of Chi You and Zhang Dingbian, Li Xiang immediately began to change the order.
However, although the archers of the Han army are considered well-trained, it is obvious that the standards of these people are still far from the level of sharp archers.
Although under Li Xiang's order, these archers chose to aim before shooting, their efficiency obviously did not improve, and even decreased slightly.
Even so, Li Xiang didn't care. Although the Han army has accumulated countless weapons and equipment in Chenliu, this battle will not last long. It is better to save some now than to have no use later.
"Ah...ah...ah..." The screams suddenly spread throughout the battlefield.
Everyone took a closer look, and it turned out that several Yellow Turban soldiers stepped on the air and fell into a deep pit while advancing, and in the deep pit, wood cut into sharp thorns was stuck upside down.
This person was lucky just now, as the wooden thorn only penetrated into his thigh. But the same could not be said for his two companions. They were directly stabbed in the vital parts and lost their breath on the spot.
"Ah...ah...ah..." Several more shrill screams came. Obviously, there was more than one deep pit like before, and there would even be many, many more.
When the Yellow Turban generals in the distance saw this scene, their faces all darkened.
In fact, when Li Xiang designed and excavated these pits, they were divided into two types: open pits and dark pits.
The pit was originally filled by the Yellow Turban soldiers. Of course, if the Yellow Turban soldiers wanted to complete this task, they had to bear the arrows shot by the Han army.
In addition to the open pits, there are also many dark pits. After the holes were dug, they were covered up by the Han soldiers. On the surface, they looked like ordinary ground.
But in fact, these pits are full of spikes. Once someone falls through the air, even if he survives by chance, he will at least be disabled for the rest of his life.
As the number of Yellow Turban soldiers falling into the dark pit continued to increase, the screams on the battlefield became more and more frequent, and some timid Yellow Turban soldiers were even so frightened that they dropped their sandbags and turned around and ran away. .
However, this type of Yellow Turban soldiers naturally did not end well. Without the protection of sandbags, they were just living targets in the eyes of the Han soldiers. Even if they could escape with their lives under the bows and arrows of the Han army, Chi You would not tolerate some deserters. One can imagine their fate later.
"He Yi, He Man, I order you two to lead a group of spearmen and go forward quickly to explore the way." Chi You said coldly.
In fact, Chi You's method was very simple. Every time the spearmen took a step, they would stab the ground in front of them. Although this method is simple, it is practical. Many hidden pits were explored by Chi You using this method.
The holes Li Xiang asked to dig were all within a stone's throw of the city wall. Otherwise, no matter how far they were, the archers on the city wall would not be able to reach them.
Even if the city wall is high up and the arrow range is longer, the distance is still limited. And in this short distance of a stone's throw, even with the protection of sword and shield soldiers, when these spearmen explored these hidden pits one by one, thousands of casualties were incurred.
"Ding, Xue Rengui's three-arrow skill is activated, the basic force is 105, the Sky-shattering Bow +1, the first arrow's force +6, the second arrow's force +6, Xue Rengui's current force has increased to 118."
The enemy generals all came to the door. Although He Yi and He Man were just two small figures, Li Xiang still accepted them without politeness.
What's more, the force value of these two people happened to reach 80 points. After killing them, they can gain some more summoning points.
Xue Rengui was seen shooting two arrows at once. The two fine iron long arrows shot through the shields held by generals He Yi and He Man, and even passed directly through the chest. This shows the power of Xue Rengui's two arrows.
"Ding, congratulations to the host's generals for killing He Yi and He Man and gaining 16 summoning points."
"Not bad archery skills." Xiang Yu, who was standing next to Chi You, also slightly admired after seeing this.
"Brother Xiang, this man's archery skills are more than that. If you and I were careless, we may not be able to catch this man's arrow safely." Chi You couldn't help but say with a hint of fear after remembering the scene under Ye City.
Hearing this, Xiang Yu also stared. To be able to make even Chi You, who is on par with him, so fearful shows how strong this person's archery skills are.
