Volume 3: The Land of Jingchu Chapter 321 Bloody Battle
Huang Zhong felt very aggrieved. It was obvious that with his "Fierce Bow" and the advantages of the defenders, he could always inflict considerable casualties on the enemy before the defenders engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and at the same time effectively undermine the enemy's morale.
If you are lucky, Huang Zhong might be able to "hit" an enemy general who accidentally shows up. After that, you don't even have to defend the city. Everyone can just rush out and beat the enemy who is down!
This is the city defense mode that Huang Zhong is familiar with...
As for hand-to-hand combat, in Huang Zhong's opinion, it was just like when Plants vs. Zombies, because the situation was unfavorable, they had to dig sunflowers to grow a nut wall - it was a last-ditch effort!
Although Huang Zhong has never played Plants vs. Zombies, the meaning is this spirit...
However, the enemy in front of him now actually added a "tower" as a monster in the tower defense game, and attacked him directly, which made Huang Zhong a little uncomfortable.
But even so, Huang Zhong would not panic. He would just fight with hand-to-hand weapons... Huang Zhong's eye shadow gradually turned red.
At the same time, Chen Gong noticed that the light golden "eye shadow" around the enemy's eyes at the beginning quickly disappeared after entering the hand-to-hand combat!
This proves that Huang Zhong's unknown combat skills are ineffective in close combat.
As for why Chen Gong’s eyesight was so useful that he could clearly see the enemy’s eye shadows from the earthen platform outside the city?
It is naturally the effect of "bright strategy".
Chen Gong's special strategy consumes mental energy and adds a Mingce mark to his own generals. The Mingce mark not only allows Chen Gong to communicate with the generals in real time, but also allows them to share vision.
Right now, above Chen Gong's head, there were five floating translucent screens, on which were five visual projections of the Mingce Marks...
That’s right, Chen Gong has also grown in these five years, and the number of Mingce Seals he can maintain at the same time has increased from three to five!
Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Shamoke... and two generals who were specially stationed at the front line to observe the battlefield, allowed Chen Gong to observe the battlefield from all angles from three perspectives: commander, general, and front line.
…
After almost "skipping" the initial damage and going straight into the battle on the city wall, the defenders' advantage narrowed.
However, the defenders of Jingzhou were not completely powerless to resist, especially the Jingzhou troops in southern Jingzhou. Most of them were "veterans" who had previously suppressed the rebellion in the four southern counties and had rich practical experience.
As the attacking party, they were temporarily unable to expand their victory and were often even blocked at the "gate" - however, due to the special nature of the covered bridge car and Lu Gong car, the city wall was never completely recaptured.
At this moment, Chen Gong also ordered Shamoke to push the barbarians up from the leftmost covered bridge!
In comparison, the actual combat effect of the covered bridge is worse, because unlike the Lu Gong car, the covered bridge car cannot provide too much space to stand, but... its essence is a passage, and the Lu Gong car is already close to a giant chariot!
It was difficult for the generals outside or the soldiers of Ji Zao to climb up step by step along Lu Gong's carriage, but it was easy .
Since the wars in southern Jing, warlords from all over the country have had the habit of hiring people from Wuxi as cannon fodder, and they often use people from Wuxi as cannon fodder, which has also caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the people of Wuxi.
Chen Gong had a deep understanding of the situation of the Wuxi people and the Shanyue people, and deliberately did not let the Wuxi barbarians go up without the first batch, so as to prevent them from mistakenly thinking that they were just "cannon fodder" again...
And it is true that the people of Wuxi are not good at being the first group to go up.
The characteristic of Wuxi people is not "fearless and courageous", but impulsive - impulsive here is a neutral word, which means that they are easily provoked to fight, but also easily lose their fighting spirit and fall into panic.
In contrast, the first batch of warriors standing in the front must not only be brave, but also calm!
On the other hand, the Wuxi barbarian soldiers are all Wuxi people who have transformed into barbarians. When ordinary Wuxi barbarian soldiers transform into barbarians, their height will expand to 1.8 to 2 meters. Moreover, unlike the generals, as long as there is an "interface", any equipment can be adapted to the armor, and the size only needs to fit their body shape, so there is no need to consider how big the armor is.
This also corresponds to the characteristic that the Wuxi people do not care about the quality of their weapons and armor.
The Wuxi barbarians need to wear real armor, and their sizes... are not that common!
Therefore, most of the Wuxi barbarian soldiers are still wearing bare armor, but their weapons have been replaced with those produced by the General's Mansion. Although their defense has been improved after becoming barbarians, it is still not as good as the initial value of Chengji General when he did not have armor plug-ins.
In contrast, the first batch of generals and Ji-made soldiers who climbed the mountain were all equipped with infantry armor!
The real use of these barbarians is not as a vanguard, but as a shot in the arm when the offensive is a little weak...
As time passed, it was inevitable that the offensive would gradually become exhausted in a situation where it was easy to defend but difficult to attack. The influx of barbarians at this time just brought a wave of rhythm and boosted morale.
Moreover, the bridge vehicle we chose was the one that was most heavily blocked. Some people were already throwing torches into the bridge vehicle, and the worst part was that a large piece of the cowhide was burned - these siege vehicles were originally disposable items.
After Shamoko took the lead and rushed forward, he was also like an enemy meeting, with extremely jealous eyes...
It was the young general Wenchang who looked about the same age as Shamoke.
"Hey! You barbarian general, you dare to come to Rongling to die? Remember the man who will kill you is Wei Yan of Yiyang!" The young general in green armor who was blocking the entrance of the corridor bridge was not afraid of Shamoke. Instead, he raised the long-handled sword in his hand and shouted.
"The Pacifier of Nanzhong and the General Zhennan are here. How dare a mere officer like you act so presumptuously!" Shamoke said as he swung up the tiger-tail iron whip and rushed forward.
Wei Yan's long-handled broadsword was also somewhat strange. The blade in front of the hilt was composed of three pieces, one large and two small, overlapping each other with a fist-sized gap between them.
Normally, when facing weapons like broadswords, one can use one's own blade to block and dispel the opponent's weapon. However, when encountering Shamoke's big, white and thick iron whip, there is nothing one can do - it is called an iron whip, but it is as thick as a bronze man, and it cannot block a gap as wide as a fist.
And this time, Wei Yan finally felt Shamoke's true power.
Shamoke said before that when he faced Wei Yan, his arms had been shaken to the point of being powerless by Huang Zhong, but he was not trying to make excuses for himself!
In this real equal fight, Shamoke was obviously still suppressing Wei Yan.
But Wei Yan was not discouraged - this guy looked to be in his 30s or 40s, in the prime of life. When he was as old as General Huang, I would be at my peak...
Huang Zhong was becoming more and more courageous as the battle went on. Did he really think that archers could only attack from a distance?
After the ladder was attached to the wall, Huang Zhong, who had just shot more than thirty arrows and was no longer at his best , still swung his sword and rushed forward to fight.
Unlike Wei Yan's long-handled sword, Huang Zhong's sword is a short-handled broadsword. When it is swung on the city wall, it not only locks the river, but also... as Huang Zhong swings it, a faint gurgling of blood can be seen.
The enemy troops enveloped by the blood energy all involuntarily surrounded Huang Zhong.
Not only did the Ji-made soldiers become slow to accept orders, but even the real warriors were dazed and instinctively killed with red eyes...
