Chapter 71 The Eastern Han Dynasty Battles the Yellow Turbans

Dozens of catapults were pushed under Guangzong City. Soldiers and Qingzhuang pulled the rope, and a 30-kilogram stone was thrown out, hitting the city wall of Guangzong City in a parabola in the air!

A wooden arrow tower of the Yellow Turbans was hit by a stone, and a corner was directly smashed, and a hapless Yellow Turban archer was killed.

The catapult showed great power, and the damage to the Guangzong City wall was not the main effect. The more obvious effect was to lower the morale of the Yellow Turbans.

No matter who you are, you are afraid of the rocks that come in your face.

The 12-meter-high siege tower of the Han army has approached the city wall of Guangzong City under the cover of catapults and infantry. The archers of the Shesheng Battalion on the siege tower shot an arrow, and the arrow cluster shot through the yellow turban soldiers on the city wall.

The generally thin cloth and leather armor of the Yellow Turban Soldiers could not withstand the arrows of the high-ranking archers, and fell to the ground with arrow feathers stuck in their bodies, and their eyes gradually lost their luster.

More than a dozen siege towers are equipped with excellent archers from the Han army, who are condescending and trying to suppress the Yellow Turban archers.

The difference between the city wall of Guangzong City and the siege tower is 4 meters. The yellow turban archers on the city wall must shoot the siege tower upwards, and the effect is not good. What made the Yellow Turbans even more uncomfortable was that they not only had to face the siege towers that commanded the city, but also the Han army archers who were throwing bows and arrows under the city walls, and the catapults that were still showing their might.

The cloud echelon and rushing team of the Han army have also begun to move.

This is an unprecedented war in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and for the lords participating in the war, it is more of a shock and inspiration.

No lord has organized such a large-scale battle, and they have witnessed a tragic siege battle here, which is a harvest in itself.

"When will my territory be able to support tens of thousands of elites and have hundreds of large-scale siege weapons?"

Chutian, who watched the battle as a reserve team, was shocked by the scale of the battle.

This is not the largest battle in the Eastern Han region. The campaign in Lords can be bigger.

The other lords were also excited, and they all wanted to train a hundred-fighting division comparable to the Eastern Han Army.

"Haha, I chose the Han camp this time. With Lu Zhi and Liu Guanzhang present, as well as excellent troops and a large number of soldiers, how can we lose? I think we can break Guangzong City today."

Huo An's words were full of confidence in Lu Zhi and Han Jun.

The Han army camp wins, and any player who joins the Han army camp can get military merit.

"Don't talk too much. Zhang Jiao shouldn't be defeated so easily. It's only the fifth day of the battle."

Chutian is not as optimistic as Huo An. The offensive against Guangzong County has just begun. If Zhang Jiao is defeated so easily, Lu Zhi does not need to be careful. He will not attack until the siege equipment is ready.

"The Han army has already begun to prepare to ascend to the city!"

A lord who was concentrating on observing the battlefield exclaimed.

Under the cover of archers, siege towers, and catapults, the Han infantry used sandbags to fill in the ravines under the city, paving the way for the ladder vehicles, siege towers, and flying ladders to approach the city wall.

The Han army is obviously rich in siege experience, not in a hurry, but in an orderly manner.

boom!

The heavy rushing car slammed into the heavy city gate, the city gate shook violently, and the rammed earth city wall shook off a lot of soil.

The Yellow Turbans in the city hurriedly tried to reinforce the city gate to prevent it from being breached by the Han army.

When the city gate was in a hurry, the Han army's ladder truck was already close to the city wall, and the two sides began to see. The soldiers of the Han army, led by the military marquis, were preparing to snatch the city wall.

The rain of arrows on both sides has already caused hundreds of casualties to the Han army, and the losses of the Yellow Turbans are no less than a thousand.

The rain of arrows continued, and the focus of both sides turned to the battle for the city wall.

Every moment Han soldiers were killed, and the casualties of the Yellow Turbans were even more serious.

"Firebow team, burn their siege tower for me!"

Zhang Liang stabbed a Han soldier to death with one shot, and let the archers set the rocket.

A flaming arrow fell on the siege tower of the Han army, trying to prevent the drawbridge of the siege tower from being lowered.

The height of the siege tower is also above the city wall. Once the suspension bridge is lowered, a large number of Han infantrymen will climb to the city along the siege tower, which will be a disaster.

A team of yellow turban soldiers carried the hot kerosene and poured it on the cloud ladder.

The Yellow Turban Army is not an opponent of the Han Army in frontal combat, but with the city defense fortifications, it can cause a lot of casualties to the Han Army.

The battle between the two sides was very fierce. A siege tower had been ignited by a rocket, burning roaringly, with black smoke billowing, so that the black smoke could be clearly seen in Chutian a few hundred meters away.

In order to storm Guangzong County, the Han court took out all the old bases.

The Yellow Turbans in the Battle of the Beasts were very tenacious in resisting, and their morale did not drop for a long time.

Not to mention Lu Zhi, even Chutian was distressed by these losses. In this way, the Hundred Battles Division of the Han court was lost in the tragic siege of the city.

But this is also the helpless choice of the Han court. If the Yellow Turbans are not extinguished as soon as possible, and the Yellow Turbans from all over the country converge, the Han court will perish faster.

"Zhou Yafu, if you are given Lu Zhi's troops, do you have the confidence to capture Guangzong City?"

While watching the battle, Chu Tian also wondered if Zhou Yafu would have performed better than Lu Zhi if he replaced Lu Zhi in command of the battle. One of the two is a famous general of the Western Han Dynasty, and the other is a famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Zhou Yafu nodded: "Of course."

"how much time is required?"

"The more time, the better. If our army has enough food and grass, it's better to besiege the city until next spring and summer, and then capture the city."

"..."

Seeing Zhou Yafu's serious expression, Chu Tian knew that his words were not a joke.

Zhou Yafu fights in one style, steady.

After besieging the city for a few months, it is estimated that the Yellow Turbans themselves will go crazy, and Zhang Jiao will also die of illness. By then, it will be easy to capture Guangzong City.

"I don't understand why Lu Zhi is so eager to attack the city?"

Chutian believed that if possible, Lu Zhi would most likely choose the same siege tactics as Zhou Yafu.

Zhou Yafu still analyzed it seriously: "There are three possibilities. First, Lu Zhi is eager for quick success; second, the Han army is short of food and grass; third, the above is urging him."

Chutian considers the first two points, it seems unlikely that the Han army is located in the Hebei area with a large population and fertile land, and the food is not bad.

Then it is very likely that the above urged Lu Zhi to play. Above is the Emperor Han Ling.

Chu Tian thought that Lu Zhi had indeed been replaced because he offended the eunuchs when he was besieging the Yellow Turbans. Could this battle forcefully trigger the story of the Han army changing generals?

When Chu Tian and Zhou Yafu were discussing the army, hundreds of Han troops had already attacked the city wall, and Guangzong City was in danger.

Zhang Liang led the Yellow Turban Chang to fight the Han army in a bloody battle and drove the Han army down from the city wall, dripping with blood.

Zhang Liang was also a fierce general who killed more than a dozen elites of the Han army one after another.

However, only Zhang Liang's side can drive out the Han army, and the Han army in other directions is attacking the city wall by means of ladder trucks, and is expanding the scope of occupation of the city wall.

Just when the Yellow Turbans were unable to support them, a team of burly Yellow Turbans arrived. This group of yellow turban soldiers wore iron armor and looked extremely powerful, and the commander of this yellow turban warrior was a pale middle-aged man with a yellow turban tied.

When Zhang Liang saw that person, he was both happy and surprised: "Brother, you are finally here!"
