Chapter 701 "Intense" Siege
Liu Biao couldn't believe it after hearing the soldiers' report.
Tens of thousands of Zhang Yu's army stood under the city wall and called for killing.
It was just dawn, and I don't know how many people were awakened.
Liu Biao's complexion was extremely bad, he had only fallen asleep at dawn, and was awakened not long after.
Liu Biao was helpless, very helpless.
After a while, some of his staff members came, but all of these staff members also had very bad faces.
Dian Wei and his men didn't shout for long, less than a quarter of an hour, and then they started training again.
"Rush, charge towards the city, stop two hundred paces away." Dian Wei whispered to several officers after the shouts of killing stopped.
Several officers immediately returned to the formation, and after preparing for a while, suddenly the front team shouted to kill in unison.
"kill."
"kill."
kill...
This time not only shouting to kill, but people also started to move, they charged towards the city at an extremely fast speed.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack."
"Prepare."
"Quickly, notify Lord State Shepherd."
"Sound the alarm immediately."
There was a flurry of panic on the city wall, and then the sound of whimpering horns rang out.
The sound of the horn was long and continuous, as if it was about to wake up the whole city.
Not long after, the sound of sobbing horns sounded in the city one after another.
This is the signal of an enemy attack, and it is a message to the entire city.
The voice soon spread to the State Shepherd's Mansion.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, this is the voice of enemy attack, Master State Shepherd,
Zhang Yu finally attacked. "
An aide was the first to react and shouted loudly.
Everyone woke up with a start, and the whole person became energetic and nervous at the same time.
This Zhang Yu has been preparing for so many days, what kind of offensive will this use.
The whole city was put on alert, all the troops were on the move, and even those who hadn't woken up called out urgently.
There was no time to eat breakfast, so they put on their battle armor and assembled urgently.
"Let the messenger go and see how the fight is going." Liu Biao became nervous again and ordered.
Some soldiers rushed to check the news.
The sound of horseshoes sounded in the city, and they walked away with anxious voices.
On Dianwei's side, when the army rushed out, although the speed was very fast, they stopped abruptly at about two hundred paces.
The army in this city was about to order to shoot arrows in the next moment, but they stopped abruptly.
The officer leading the team immediately turned to the right, then spared from the side, and then spared to another place.
A soldier next to Dian Wei waved the command flag, and then the next phalanx, they carried the ladder, and then suddenly began to charge.
This posture seems to be about to attack the city.
The defenders who were still tense just now became even more nervous.
They were on guard and set up their arrows.
They were about to shoot arrows again, but Jiangdong's soldiers and horses did not fully enter their range, and suddenly turned around, and then lined up behind.
The defenders can't understand it anymore, this is not playing tricks on them.
The messenger who came to check the news went to the top of the city to understand the situation.
"General, Lord State Shepherd let me take a look and see how the battle is going?" the orderly said to the general.
The guard pulled the messenger to the back, and said, "This battle hasn't started yet, oh no, it has, but the two sides haven't fought yet, it's not right..."
"General, is this a fight or not? How should I reply to Master Zhou? Master Zhou and you are still waiting for his subordinates to go back and reply." The messenger said.
How can the guard answer.
Said that there was no fight, the Jiangdong army was attacking the city wall.
It's not right to say that they fought, they rushed back halfway, and the two sides didn't really fight at all.
The guard couldn't tell for a long time, so he dragged the messenger to the battlements to watch.
The messenger was watching there, and after a while, a Jiangdong soldier rushed over again, and they immediately turned and retreated just before they entered the best range of the city.
The battle didn't really seem to be fought, but it seemed to be fought again.
The messenger was also confused, not knowing how to go back and answer.
The two discussed it for a while, and decided to take another look.
And Liu Biao waited anxiously in the State Shepherd's Mansion.
This time, I waited for almost two quarters of an hour and still haven't seen the messenger come back to answer.
The fast horse is running around the city, and it won't take long for the news to be sent back, but the messenger who should have returned long ago has not yet returned.
Liu Biao couldn't wait, so he sent the messengers out again, this time there were only three of them.
When the three of them arrived at the top of the city, they also saw this strange scene.
They also don't know how to go back and talk back.
"You have also seen that Master State Shepherd is waiting to reply, but this general really doesn't know how to get back to Lord State Shepherd."
The first soldier who came to deliver the order said: "Master State Shepherd has sent someone again. Obviously, he can't wait any longer. Why don't I go back and reply first, and the others continue to wait for news."
"Okay, just go back and reply to Mr. Zhou Mu, saying that the battle is fierce and there have been no casualties on both sides."
The fighting situation is fierce, the charging posture seems to be about to attack the top of the city, and our own side is also ready to fight.
However, there were indeed no casualties on both sides, and no arrows were fired.
The soldiers went back and replied to Liu Biao.
Liu Biao and everyone became nervous when they heard the fierce battle, but were dumbfounded when they heard that there were no casualties.
"Go and investigate again, and send me accurate information." Liu Biao ordered.
The messenger went to deliver the order again.
"Go back and tell Lord Zhou Mu that our army has forced back Jiangdong soldiers and horses to attack the city wall several times in a row, and no one on our side was injured or injured."
"Fire the arrows, shoot them all for me."
As soon as the guard finished speaking to the messenger, he gave the order to shoot arrows, but the soldiers hesitated and didn't shoot arrows.
"Didn't you hear the general's order, release the arrow immediately."
The soldier shot arrows one after another, not neatly at all.
It's not that their quality is not good, Jiangdong soldiers and horses are rich, and the training is still sufficient.
But the enemy is far from reaching the range, and there is still a distance from the furthest range, and they can't attack at all with arrows.
But an order is an order.
Arrows began to fly randomly on the top of the city, and the archers kept releasing arrows.
The messenger stood there hesitating for a long time before leaving.
He will report back immediately.
"Haha, okay, okay, it seems that Jiangdong's soldiers and horses are not as powerful as the rumors." Liu Biao and others finally heard the good news.
Everyone was also happy. After being tortured for more than ten days, they finally heard good news.
Zhang Yu's army was easily repelled.
The guard easily "repelled" several attacks by Jiangdong soldiers and horses, and no one was injured.
"Haha, haha. Good." Zhang Yu, who was watching from a distance, became very happy. Today's movement is big enough.
Of course Zhang Yu was overjoyed, he wouldn't stop if he didn't torment Liu Biao this time.
"A few days more trouble, and more than half of Liu Biao's Jingzhou will be lost."
Zhang Yu knew Cai Mao's progress, and he would not have many people to arrange for him in a short time, so there would be no need to make such a fuss by then.
