Chapter 358 Intense Fighting, the City Is About to Break Down?
Yuan Shao attacked violently, Zhang Yu didn't get nervous after making a round of inspection, but stood on the top of the wall.
"Hey, Yuan Shao, the rear is about to be blown up."
"Yuan Shao, when you take down the city, maybe the city of Ye will be conquered."
Zhang Yu deliberately shouted from the top of the city.
Zhang Yu yelled while dodging the incoming arrows, but he seemed very relaxed.
The soldiers below will always be affected when they hear it.
Originally, they didn't know that Gongsun Zan was fighting, but looking at Zhang Yu now, it seemed that it was quite serious.
The morale of the army was inevitably affected, and Yuan Shao was behind, his mouth twisted in anger.
So, he ordered someone to come forward and shout: "Zhang Yu, you are still in such a panic now that you are trapped in a dangerous city. When I break through the city, you will definitely end up in trouble."
At this time, Yuanshi County was indeed like a dangerous city, and the city walls were damaged in many places. After all, Yuan Shao's attack for so many days was not false.
The broken walls certainly looked like a dangerous city.
In the city, Zhang Yu's army has lost more than 10,000 people, and the remaining soldiers and horses are less than 20,000.
In addition, apart from the arrows, there are only a few stones and rolling logs, which Zhang Yu left on purpose to use them when the situation is more critical.
So what Yuan Shao said was right, Zhang Yu was trapped in a dangerous city at this time.
But Zhang Yu is not afraid.
Then, Yuan Shao continued to attack day and night, and the intensity of the attack was very high.
On the first day, Yuan Shao directly killed more than 8,000 people in one day.
At the same time, Zhang Yu also lost more than 3,000 people.
The next day, Yuan Shao's offensive became more intense, and soldiers rushed over like a tide.
Crazy attack, very crazy.
As a last resort, Zhang Yu could only take out the stones and rolling logs prepared in the city, and repel several waves of Yuan Jun's attacks.
The next day passed with heavy losses on both sides.
Zhang Yu and the others lost nearly 5,000 people, while Yuan Jun directly killed more than 10,000 people.
Zhang Yu's army had grown from 30,000 to just over 10,000 now, as if the city was about to fall.
"Attack, attack, we must break through the city within one day." Yuan Shao also went crazy.
It made him go crazy. On the other side, Gongsun Zan's attack was very swift and fierce. The army kept pressing down on Ju Yi, trying to kill him.
Gongsun Zan has something to pursue, and his ambition is very big. Given a chance, he would even destroy Yuan Shao.
Historically, Gongsun Zan did occupy many places in Yuan Shao.
So Yuan Shao was crazy and attacked regardless of casualties.
On the third day, the fighting situation was very tense, and Zhang Yu and the others were under tremendous pressure.
As a last resort, Zhang Yu immediately recruited 5,000 people.
In this way, Zhang Yu's army recovered to more than 17,000 people, and restored a certain combat power.
Yuan Shao himself suffered a lot of casualties, but he can often replenish.
From the siege to the present, he has suffered more than 70,000 soldiers and horses, but at this time he still maintains an advantage of 80,000 soldiers and horses.
Since the beginning of the war, he has been constantly recruiting troops from the surrounding counties and counties to replenish consumption.
Therefore, Yuan Shao has always maintained an absolute advantage in military strength.
On the third day of the fight, Yuan Shao was already a little crazy. He saw that the city was about to be breached, so he prepared for the final madness.
Zhang Yu had already personally gone up to the city wall to command.
"Order the soldiers to move all the stones and logs over here, and also demolish the county office and warehouses, and bring over all the stones and logs." Zhang Yu even ordered.
Anyway, the county government and the warehouses in the county town were demolished, and it wasn't Zhang Yu's, so I didn't feel bad at all.
These defensive materials are good materials for defending the city.
If necessary, Zhang Yu would demolish all the houses of the aristocratic family. The foundations were smashed stones, and the beams and pillars of the house were rolled logs. Zhang Yu would not feel distressed at all.
Yuan Shao started to attack frantically, while Zhang Yu ordered the soldiers to move out the stones and logs and smash them desperately.
For a time, the battlefield was fiercely fought.
Both sides suffered heavy casualties.
Relying on the large number of people, Yuan Shao didn't care about casualties at all.
Zhang Yu had 5,000 more men and a large amount of supplies for defending the city, so he was not afraid of consumption, and he attacked frantically.
A fierce battle broke out between the two sides.
In half a day, Yuan Shao suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and Zhang Yu's newly recruited 5,000 soldiers were also exhausted.
The fighting was fierce.
Both sides suffered heavy casualties.
Yuan Shao's eyes were condensed, fixed on the city, as if his eyes could kill Zhang Yu and the others.
"Zhang Yu, this time either you or I will die." Yuan Shao said looking at the city wall.
Yuan Shao waved his hand, and two more soldiers from the 5,000-man phalanx were killed.
Under the impact of Yuan Shao's casualties, Yuan Jun began to attack the city wall, and some soldiers had already boarded the city wall.
On the city wall, there are dense rows of ladders, and the soldiers have been stepping on the ladders to hit the city wall.
Zhang Yu was fighting on the city wall, looking down indifferently.
Soldier Nian kept falling, and naturally there were soldiers behind to replenish.
"Yuan Shao, you are the one who failed in the end."
Zhang Yu counted the time, and it has been three days since Yuan Shao's crazy attack, that is to say, it has been three days since the news of Gongsun Zan's invasion reached Yuan Shao's place, so Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun's attack was only one or two days away.
Yuan Shao watched the soldiers ascend the city wall, and happily moved his car forward.
"Rush, rush, rush, rush up for me." Yuan Shao yelled frantically in front of him.
Yuan Shao has been aggrieved for too long, and was beaten in the face by Zhang Yu one after another in Yecheng. Now that victory is in sight, and Zhang Yu is about to be executed, Yuan Shao of course went crazy.
Finally, Yuan Shao himself rode on the horse and came to the front of the battle line to supervise the battle.
"Quick, break through the city, whoever kills Zhang Yu will be promoted to three ranks." Yuan Shao shouted again.
Yuan Shao personally supervised the battle and promised great benefits, and the soldiers also went crazy.
When they were soldiers, they used their lives to gamble. Now that they have the opportunity to stand out, of course it is a crazy gamble.
Seeing that the stimulation was effective, Yuan Shao smiled triumphantly and said, "Haha, the city is about to fall, and Zhang Yu is doomed to die, so he finally vented his anger."
As the war continued, Yuan Jun's soldiers became even crazier.
As soon as he rode a fast horse and galloped over, Yuan Shao saw from a distance on the horseback that it was his own messenger.
Yuan Shao frowned, and had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Damn it, it must be Gongsun Zan, I'll take care of Zhang Yu when I take care of him." Yuan Shao thought to himself.
The messenger crossed the battlefield, came to Yuan Shao's front, then got off the horse with a plop, and knelt on the ground.
"Report, my lord, the big thing is not good. Zhang Yu's army broke through and occupied Quyang County, and came to our side, only a few hours away."
"Plop~"
As soon as the soldier finished speaking, Yuan Shao also slid off the horse with a plop, but the difference was that he fell directly to the ground.
"My lord, my lord."
"Quick, carry the lord down."
The soldiers beside him were in a hurry, why did Yuan Shao do this all of a sudden.
"Impossible, impossible." Yuan Shao fell half unconscious and was carried, still muttering.
