After Cao Ren gave the order, thousands of soldiers on the city wall bent their bows and arrows, divided into three groups, stepped forward one after another, and then drew their bows towards the sky!
For the soldiers defending the city, shooting an arrow at 45 degrees to the sky can naturally shoot the farthest!
Only in this way can the enemy inflict the greatest casualties on the enemy during the period of time when the enemy army is under the city wall!
And at this moment, the army under Luo Cheng is about to enter the firing range, and it is naturally the best to kill from a distance!
If they rush into the city for more than a hundred steps, they will aim their bows and arrows at the city!
And when Luo Cheng saw that Cao Ren was already on guard, he immediately shouted at the three thousand soldiers of the front army!
"Everyone, raise the shield to form a military formation, and step forward in turn!"
"Sword and shield soldiers, follow behind the shield army, and after reaching the city wall, immediately start the siege!"
After Luo Cheng drank heavily, the 1,500 shield soldiers of the former thousand army began to step in neat steps, each holding a one-person-high shield, and walked forward!
Behind them were fifteen hundred sword shield soldiers!
Their equipment, naturally, is a knife in one hand and a round shield in the other!
It's just that this round shield can only block half of his body, otherwise if it is too heavy, it will be the same as the shield army, and he will not be able to carry the shield directly to the city wall!
Siege warfare is nothing more than two sides testing each other, and then finding each other's weaknesses, and the battle is complete!
Of course, if you can't find the opponent's weakness, then you can only attack!
Basically, if it is a strong attack, the soldiers under the command of the besieging party must be at least three or five times as large as the defending side, and at best, ten times as large!
Now Cao Ren has a total of 30,000 horses under his command, which can be said to be enough soldiers!
And there are only forty or fifty thousand people under Kou Feng's command, which is a bit difficult to do!
Cao Cao naturally understands that if Wancheng is captured, it will be more and more difficult for him Cao Cao to attack the Jingzhou area!
That's why Cao Ren was given enough food and grass for his soldiers and horses, so that he could be stationed in Wancheng to resist Kou Feng!
As the general under Cao Cao's best at defending the city, let Cao Ren garrison Wancheng, relying on Wancheng to be easy to defend and difficult to attack!
After these conditions are added, Wancheng is naturally impregnable!
It is expected that he, Cao Ren, can resist Kou Feng in the area of Wancheng!
When the front army under Luo Cheng held a shield and killed Wancheng, after entering the range of Cao Ren's army, Cao Ren immediately ordered!
"Three-stage throw, release the arrow!"
For a while, after Cao Ren gave the order, countless gurgling bowstring sounds immediately sounded!
Immediately after, countless arrows fell directly from the city wall, crossing a graceful arc, and fell towards Luo Cheng's army!
When the soldiers of the shield army saw this, they immediately raised their shields to cover their whole bodies and slowly moved towards the city wall of Wancheng!
When the rain of arrows began to fall, fortunately, the shields in the hands of the 1,500 shield army were quite thick!
Not even a rain of arrows falling from the walls of the city could pierce these shields!
There were only a few unlucky eggs, and the shield was blocked at the wrong angle, and they were directly knocked to the ground by the rain of arrows on the city wall!
However, there were only one or two people who could resist the shield army, so the 1,500 sword shield soldiers who followed them suffered a lot of casualties!
Seeing that the rain of arrows was ineffective against the shield army, Cao Ren on the city wall also changed his face at this moment, and immediately shouted at the army under his command!
"Change the angle and shoot me at the sword and shield soldiers behind the shield army!"
After Cao Ren gave the order, the soldiers on the city wall immediately changed their goals and shot towards the sword and shield soldiers!
At this moment, the number of casualties of the 1,500 sword shield soldiers is also increasing rapidly!
Seeing this situation, Luo Cheng at this moment was also holding a shield and shouted anxiously!
"Speed up, rush to the bottom of Wancheng City, and the ladder will go up first!"
When Luo Cheng said this, the speed of the soldiers suddenly increased, and after a small half pillar of incense, they finally reached the foot of Wancheng!
After seeing Luo Cheng's army begin to approach Wancheng and prepare to climb the city wall, Cao Ren immediately ordered his army to stop firing arrows!
"Prepare to roll the stone and wooden barricades, and when the enemy army comes to the city, throw it down immediately!"
"Attack the ladder first, don't let these rabbit cubs kill the city wall!"
Under the protection of the shield, the three thousand soldiers and horses who were the vanguard finally killed under the city of Wancheng, even if there was a shield!
However, the number of dead and wounded sword and shield soldiers is still as high as hundreds, which means that the number of sword and shield soldiers who died on the way to the charge is as high as one-third!
But there is no way, the siege is originally unfavorable to the besieging side, and it is often necessary to pay several times the price of the defenders in the city, or even more than ten times, to capture the city!
Moreover, there are not many shields in the entire Kou Feng army of the shield army, otherwise, everyone will kill under Wancheng with a shield, and it will naturally be possible to break through this Wancheng!
When Luo Cheng led his soldiers to the bottom of the city wall, he immediately changed his formation, and more than a thousand sword and shield soldiers immediately rushed out from behind the shield army!
I saw that they quickly set up a ladder, braved the attack of rolling stones and wooden barriers, and began to attack the city!
For a while, the soldiers under Luo Cheng's command stepped on the cloud ladder and killed towards the city wall with a crazy face, and the killing intent and battle intent exploded in the hearts of these soldiers!
Siege warfare, that's either you die or I die, whether it's Cao Jun or Kou Feng's army, it's all crazy!
This is war!
As a few soldiers under Kou Feng's command had just erected the ladder, several boulders rolled down directly from the city wall!
When the boulder was smashed down, even if those soldiers resisted with a round shield, they were directly stoned to death on the spot!
On the ladder on the other side, there were already soldiers who began to climb up, but they had not taken a few steps up the ladder just now, and even the entire ladder was directly pushed down!
Rao is soldier was full of horror, but it didn't have any effect, and he fell down directly with the ladder and turned into mud!
This battle lasted from noon to night!
For a whole afternoon, Kou Feng's army did not take advantage of the slightest, but killed and wounded more than 2,000 people!
After the sound of Mingjin sounded, the Kou Feng army that was fighting under the city wall slowly withdrew, leaving behind more than 2,000 corpses!
......
It is not good to attack Wancheng, which is also expected by Kou Feng, if it is really a day, he will be able to take this Wancheng!
Wouldn't it be said that this Cao Jun's No. 1 general is good at guarding and the 30,000 elite Cao Jun under his command are waste?
Moreover, the walls of Wancheng are tall and heavy, and they are not easy to break through at all, otherwise why call it the Jingzhou barrier?
However, compared to the battle of Wancheng, it is unfavorable, but Yuzhou at this moment is diametrically opposed to Wancheng!
As Li Tong led his soldiers and horses to withdraw, Cao Cao cut off his own arm, and in order to block Kou Feng in the Wan and Luo areas, the entire Yuzhou soldiers and horses were transferred back to Xudu!
Although in the end, these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were transferred to Xuzhou, at least Cao Cao had enough strength to resist all the hostile forces from all around!
When Zhao Yun and Yang Zaixing escorted the 100,000 Yuzhou elites who were looted by Li Tong and returned to Yuzhou, they immediately made these elites cry with joy!
There are even many people who knelt directly on the ground, chanting the names of Zhao Yun, Yang Zaixing and others!
Seeing this scene, Zhao Yun also said with a smile!
"You don't need to thank the two of us for this matter, both of them are my family masters, and they are all Rende, the general of the south!"
After hearing Zhao Yun's words, these 100,000 elites also shouted Kou Feng Rende!
After these 100,000 people returned to their homes in Yuzhou, the entire people of Yuzhou began to sing the praises of Kou Feng's name of benevolence!
This is a bonus!
And just after Zhao Yun and Yang Zaixing led the army back to Runan County, Yue Fei also sent his soldiers and horses to completely take down the six counties of Runan, Peiguo, Chen, Lu, Chen and Yingchuan!
Yuzhou alone has only four counties and two counties!
Not to mention, Yingchuan was also the place of study for the masterminds under Cao Cao before, and once Kou Feng took this place, he could get a lot of county talents, not to mention a lot of county talents!
In this way, fill the number of county-level scribes under his command!
