Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

While Wei Yan bombarded the Jingxiang water army, Liu Qi also rushed to Liqiu with Jiang Xia's soldiers, wanting to help Liu Cong.

Although his eldest son was squeezed out of the inner circle after his father died, Liu Qi also knew that this was the choice of the Jingxiang gentry, and his brother did not kill them all. Independent military power, able to gain a foothold in Jiangxia so as not to be killed.

Even if you don't mention these things, Liu Qi understands the reason why his lips are dead and his teeth are cold.

However, as soon as he arrived in Liqiu with 5,000 soldiers, he was ambushed by Deng Ai who had already been waiting here with 3,000 soldiers.

All over the sky, crossbow arrows shot out from the mountains and forests. Jiang Xia's army who had just arrived hadn't understood what happened before they were defeated by the overwhelming arrow rain.

Deng Ai let the soldiers shoot out three crossbow boxes before rushing out with others. He is not very old, but he has been trained in the trapped camp since he was eleven years old. He is extremely brave in martial arts. Under the leadership of Wei Yan, he also Quite brave, at this moment, after a rain of arrows disrupted the enemy's formation, he rushed in without saying a word, and Liu Qi had no choice but to retreat.

Deng Ai did not chase far away. After seeing the enemy retreating, he left a team of troops to watch. If the enemy left and returned, he would report immediately, and he led the troops back to Fancheng. When he came back, he saw Fancheng shelling the Jingxiang navy. On the surface of the river, there are boats devastated.

"General, the last general will lead people across the river!" After Deng Ai came to Wei Yan to return to his command, he looked at Deng Ai eager to try.

"Don't worry, the casualties will be heavy in the past now, you go and transfer all the stone bombs from Xinye to me, be careful that they cross the river and bombard him for three days and three nights, I see how this Xiangyang will defend! "Wei Yan stopped him and rushed over now, why didn't he just hit Xiangyang directly, why did he go so hard to fight Fancheng?

There is only one water between Fancheng and Xiangyang, facing each other across the river, with only 800 steps in between. In the past, this was Xiangyang's excellent defense. When the enemy attacked Fancheng, Xiangyang could quickly send reinforcements to the opposite side. Attacking Xiangyang, Fancheng can quickly send reinforcements to Xiangyang.

No matter how you fight or which side you hit, you can't completely trap it, and you can get support. Hanshui is also the narrowest in this section.

But now this advantage falls into the eyes of Wei Yan, but it has become an absolute disadvantage. There is no other reason. The distance between Xiangfan and Xiangfan is almost 800 steps. , it is not easy to attack, but it is not difficult for Wei Yan to attack this Fancheng. The Vulcan cannon blasted fiercely, coupled with the detonation thunder, it was basically broken.

With the equipment and combat power of the Nanyang Army, the destruction of the city gate means that the battle is over. This is why Deng Ai wanted to rush to the opposite bank as soon as he came back. The Nanyang Army has this strength.

"Here!"

Deng Ai promised, and left with his soldiers and horses in a hurry.

Wei Yan immediately ordered people to adjust the muzzle and fire at Xiangyang City on the opposite side. At the same time, he prepared a Liannu army and an army with Thunder God crossbow on the riverside. As long as the enemy dared to charge here, they would shoot.

Xiangyang County hadn't woken up from the shock of being beaten to pieces by the navy, and the Vulcan Cannon began to bombard the head of Xiangyang City.

"Boom boom boom~"

The sound of cannons kept ringing out one after another. As the seat of Jingzhou County, Xiangyang City is naturally much stronger than Fancheng, but even so, every stone bombarded on the city wall also caused stone chips to fly.

Under the bombardment of the stone bullets, the soldiers guarding the city could only hide behind the female wall and tremble. They wanted to fight back. They could shoot the stone bullets across the Han River, but they couldn't shoot the arrows. You can be beaten but not fight back. In this case, there is no morale at all.

Cai Mao seemed to have climbed up the tower and looked at it for a while, when a stone bullet hit the tower under his feet. Scared, Cai Mao hurriedly retreated from the city, and retreated into the city in disgrace.

In Xiangyang City, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, Cai He, Zhang Yun and others had already gathered in the Governor's Mansion. Liu Cong was fine, and the others looked gloomy. When they saw Cai Mao coming back, they quickly asked, "How is the war going?"

"Alas~" Cai Mao looked at the eyes of the crowd, sat down weakly and shook his head, and said, "The Vulcan cannon was mounted on the top of Fancheng City, and directly bombarded the city wall here across the Han River. Going down, the enemy army has not crossed the river, and Xiangyang City will probably be smashed to pieces by them!"

Everyone has also seen the scene where the water army was bombarded and had no power to fight back. Zhang Yun scratched his head and said, "There are at least 800 steps between the two cities. Is the Vulcan cannon really so powerful!?"

Regarding the power of the Vulcan Cannon, they only learned that it was very powerful from the people who fled from the Central Plains battlefield, but they had no idea how powerful it was, and they always felt that it was a bit exaggerated. There was no chance of fighting back at all.

"Tonight, I'll send someone to cross the river at night to see if I can sneak attack and destroy the Vulcan cannon!" Cai Mao gritted his teeth.

I'm afraid it will be difficult!

Kuai Yue sighed, that Wei Yan is also a good fighter, before the two sides fought, the Jingzhou army suffered a lot from Wei Yan, he is a man who knows how to fight, and he will not make this mistake.

But Kuai Yue didn't stop him, and there is no other way now, what if Wei Yan underestimated the enemy and was careless?

Pinning the hope of victory or defeat on the enemy's underestimation of the enemy, from this point of view, they are actually hopeless.

That night, Cai Mao ordered Wenpin and Wang Wei to lead the army to cross the river at night, but just as the boats crossing the river reached the bank, countless rockets suddenly shot down from the opposite city, followed by two troops rushing out from the city. The Thunder God Crossbow didn't even go ashore, and was killed by the two troops that killed countless people. Wen Pin and Wang Wei could only withdraw to the west bank in embarrassment after leaving hundreds of corpses behind. This last road seemed to be blocked. died.

Cai Mao was a little desperate.

"Perhaps we can try crossing the river to attack Xinye. Gao Shun took the main force of Nanyang to attack the Central Plains. Nanyang should be quite empty at this time. After Wei Yan brings out these troops, Nanyang may not have many defenders at the moment." Kuai Yue offered a In other words, the enemy army is always numerous, and the heavy troops are gathered here, but the defense in the rear is empty. They have to give full play to the advantages of the navy.

Cai Hao had been beaten without confidence, but it was better than sitting and waiting to die. On the second day, he ordered Liu Pan to lead the army across the river, trying to capture Xinye, and cut off Wei Yan's retreat.

This time, there was no interception, and Wenpin came to Xinye smoothly. However, although there were not many defenders in Xinye, only 800, they were all elites. In addition, they were on the defensive, and they just shot with continuous crossbows at the top of the city. Wenpin attacked They failed to break through Xinye several times, but lost a lot of troops, and finally had no choice but to withdraw their troops.

On the third day, when the stone bombs from Xinye were delivered to Fancheng, Wei Yan began to fire towards Xiangyang unrestrainedly, even two of the barrels were blown up. Wei Yan could only let people pour water on the barrels to cool down.

After three days and three nights of continuous bombing, the walls of Xiangyang City were devastated, and many places collapsed.

Even the city wall of the county city, although the exterior is made of bricks and stones, the interior is still a rammed earth structure. Faced with this continuous bombardment, the city wall began to crumble.

Deng Ai asked Wei Yan again for orders to cross the river and attack the city.

This time, Wei Yan did not refuse. Deng Ai led 3,000 soldiers across the river under the cover of stone bullets, and blasted open the crumbling city gate with detonating mines. The soldiers of both sides fought desperately under the city gate.

Although there are many soldiers in Xiangyang, the Nanyang army is well-equipped. Not to mention the continuous crossbow shooting, the Xiangyang army can't break through the armor of others in close combat, but the Nanyang army can easily kill the enemy with a single knife. The soldiers of the Nanyang army The armor he wears is of the general level in Xiangyang. Lu Bu already has equipment for making armor. Now it is not easy to make that kind of fine armor, but the two armors can be mass-produced. Next, how to fight?

The defenders of Xiangyang began to collapse in less than half an hour after resisting. Seeing that they were invincible, Cai Mao and others took Liu Cong out of Xiangyang in advance and retreated to Jiangling.

Under such circumstances, Xiangyang, the prefecture of Jingzhou, was defeated by Wei Yan. After capturing Xiangyang, Wei Yan did not intend to stay at all.

When Cai Mao and others fled to Jiangling, they were already quite embarrassed. Seeing that many Jingzhou troops could not be defeated, a large number of surrenders had already begun.

However, this was not the worst. The worst thing was that during the period when they were fully resisting Wei Yan, Zhang Liao had successfully broken through the defense of the Jingzhou army and entered the territory of Jingzhou.

Compared with Wei Yan, Zhang Liao has sufficient manpower, but he has been blocked in Shu due to the terrain. Now that he has successfully broken through the Jingzhou army's defense, it is really like a tiger coming out of a ravine, unstoppable.

The Jingzhou army sent troops to stop them several times, but they were beaten to the ground.

"What should I do!?" In Jiangling City, Cai Mao was shocked when he learned that Zhang Liao had entered Jingzhou. The house was leaking even though it was raining all night, and Lu Bu's main force was in the Central Plains. They were all beaten so badly. When Lu Bu freed his hand, how could he still have the ability to block Lu Bu?

"Withdraw!" Kuai Yue was quite calm at this time.

"Withdraw the troops?" Cai Mao looked at Kuai Yue: "We still have Jiangling City to defend. Wouldn't it be easier for them to withdraw at this time?"

"Xiangyang couldn't stop Wei Yan. Now that Zhang Liao has more Vulcan cannons and more troops, how can a Jiangling city stop?" Kuai Yue asked rhetorically.

"This..." Cai Mao was a little speechless, the truth was true, but he was a little unwilling!

"At this time, if you take the initiative to retreat to Jingnan, you can still transport the population and luggage to Jingnan. If you defend Jiangling to the death, you will not only lose your troops, but when you are forced to retreat to Jingnan, you will lose both people and wealth!" Kuai Yueshen soundtrack.

Jiangling is an important town in Jingxiang, and the supplies stored here are extremely rich. If they stay here, it will be cheaper for the enemy. It is better to withdraw as soon as possible. Although the Nanyang army is powerful, but without the navy, the Vulcan cannon cannot be carried on the ship. Go, it is impossible to fight to the other side through the general.

Cai Hao hesitated again and again, but decided to agree with Kuai Yue's plan. At the moment, it is just to make people delay Wei Yan and Zhang Liao, and buy time for them to withdraw their troops...
