Chapter 566: A Textbook-Like Broken City
Zhang Yu's condition was three days, but it was less than a day. Counting from yesterday afternoon, it was only half a day.
But Zhang Yu ordered the soldiers to break through the city in the morning.
No one questioned Zhang Yu's order, and no one thought Zhang Yu's order was wrong.
"Break the city this morning." Zhang Yu raised his halberd and shouted.
"Break the city."
"Break the city."
"Break the city."
With high morale, the soldiers chanted slogans and slowly pressed over.
The city was filled with darkness, and the morale of the defenders on the city was low, and the morale that had just been boosted was drained all of a sudden.
"Don't panic, just defend for two more days, just two days."
"Quick, all enter their respective positions."
"No one is allowed to retreat, whoever retreats, beheaded."
The generals defending the city had to give orders to hold their ground.
Their morale was indeed hit hard.
"kill."
Zhang Yu's army approached and began to charge.
Just like the day before, the army rushed forward desperately.
The generals defending the city were under great pressure and hurriedly ordered a counterattack.
"Archer, don't be afraid of casualties, come close and attack." The archer put on a desperate posture again.
"Let the arrows go."
The two sides immediately shot a round of arrows at each other.
On Zhang Yu's side, more than 300 people fell.
In the previous day's battle, their archers suffered a great loss, and the remaining archers were also terrified.
now,
Zhang Yu's archers are still as crazy as yesterday, how can they not be afraid.
The second round of arrows immediately continued to attack, this time they collapsed directly, without the courage to fight like this.
If the archer is discouraged, the other soldiers will naturally suffer.
They didn't have a good rest, their combat power was not high, and they lost their morale. Now the archers can't suppress each other.
"Block it, stop it, definitely stop it."
"If the city is broken, everyone will die."
"Block me."
Under the general's constant yelling and urging, they managed to stabilize and continue to defend.
The generals defending the city did not dare to relax for a moment, running back and forth at the top of the city, commanding the soldiers to fight back.
Once there are no generals to encourage them and command them to fight, problems will arise.
The situation is very bad.
The arrows kept falling, and many soldiers defending the city were killed as soon as they emerged from the city wall, and it was too late to throw the stones and logs down.
A log needs at least two people to lift and throw it down, and most of the body will be exposed. At this time, several archers are staring at them.
Usually, a soldier in the city becomes a one-time expendable, throwing a log and never coming back.
The log isn't lifted up quickly, thrown down, and immediately hidden.
The log was already heavy, and it had to be lifted up. This process was not short.
Morale is depleting a little bit.
In half an hour, some of Zhang Yu's troops climbed up the city wall.
There have been several crises in the city.
"It's almost there." Zhang Yu kept staring at the city wall.
"Soldier, order the soldiers to retreat immediately." Zhang Yu gave another puzzling order.
Because, at this time, the soldiers have all attacked the top of the city, and it seems that they can attack the top of the city and fight on the top of the city.
But at this time, Zhang Yu ordered the withdrawal of troops.
Although puzzled, Zhang Yu did not explain and immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops.
The order was delivered quickly.
The troops on the front line don't understand each other, but the military orders are like mountains.
No one dared to disobey the military order.
The army retreated like a tide.
"Why did you retreat?"
"do not fight?"
"Could it be that our reinforcements are here?"
"What conspiracy does Zhang Yu have?"
All kinds of speculation on the top of the city.
The army retreated, and several lieutenants gathered, but Zhang Yu didn't explain to them.
Zhang Yu saw their puzzled faces, waved his hands and said, "Regroup immediately and attack the formation."
Attack formation?
They have been attacking just now, and almost attacked the top of the city. After retreating and forming an attacking formation, do they want to attack again? So why withdraw troops.
I don't understand, the enemy doesn't understand, Zhang Yu and the others don't understand either.
The attacking formation was laid out, and the army formation was neat.
Zhang Yu didn't give the order to attack, but came out slowly on his own.
"Listen, soldiers on the top of the wall, I'll give you fifteen minutes to surrender and avoid death." Zhang Yu shouted himself.
"What? You can surrender."
"Is it really possible to surrender? It's terrible."
"No need to die, no need to die."
"Could it be a conspiracy? Didn't Zhang Yu say yesterday that they would all be killed if they broke through the city within three days?"
The soldiers in the city were all desperate, but suddenly there was a surge of hope.
According to the situation just now, there is almost no suspense in breaking the city in half a day.
After breaking the city, they will die.
After letting the soldiers in the city think about it for a while, Zhang Yu continued to come out and said, "One last time, surrender within a quarter of an hour to avoid death, otherwise the city will be broken, and no soldier will be left behind."
"It's true, he is Zhang Yu, he keeps his word."
"You don't have to die."
The soldiers were excited.
There was hope again on the face of despair.
But the generals who defended the city were ashen-faced. They knew that, let alone three days, half of them would be unable to resist.
In less than a day, these soldiers did not know how many ups and downs, plus a night of no rest, and high-intensity combat, they no longer have much combat effectiveness.
At this time, they didn't have much fighting spirit, and their morale was completely broken.
"Oh, lost, lost." The general defending the city said helplessly.
It was quiet above the city, they all quieted down after making noise, waiting for the final decision of the general defending the city.
And Zhang Yu and the others stood quietly below, forming an attacking phalanx.
But Zhang Yu's silence, the deep silence, makes people awe-inspiring.
It was a deathly stillness.
"Kasong surrender." Faced with this silent pressure, the generals defending the city couldn't bear it.
He was afraid that if he refused to surrender, he would be killed by his soldiers, and these people could no longer bear it.
At the same time, he also understood very well that the soldiers had been nearly collapsed by Zhang Yu, and if they charged again, they might be able to break through the city.
The city gate opened slowly.
"My lord, they really surrendered." A lieutenant said excitedly.
Zhang Yu smiled slightly.
This three-day agreement is a trap.
If there is no agreement for these three days, Zhang Yu will need to spend a lot of effort to break through the city.
The gate of the city was opened, and Zhang Yu sent people in to take over the army and supplement consumption at the same time.
"My lord, my subordinates admire me. I didn't expect my lord to frighten them out of their wits." After entering the city, a general sighed.
Zhang Yu said: "In this battle, although the casualties were a bit heavy in the early stage, the subsequent battles were easy to fight. They defeated their confidence and won quickly."
This method can only be aimed at this kind of army, which is mostly recruits and insufficiently trained.
If it is an experienced or well-trained army, this method will only increase your casualties. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
