Chapter 834 Cannon Fodder Sieges the City

Gao Lan gave an order, and hundreds of archers stepped forward and walked to the brackets extending from the city head. These brackets were used by the archers in the city to rain down arrows on the enemy.

"Siege the city!"

Ten thousand miscellaneous soldiers had been in Sanhan for a long time and rarely saw cities in the Central Plains. Now that they were about to attack the city, they couldn't help but feel a little nervous and slowly walked towards the city.

Gao Lan stared at the distance between the enemy and the city. When the three Korean soldiers entered fifty steps, he waved his arm.

"Fire the arrow!"

Whoosh whoosh!

The archers on the Dougong had been a little nervous for a long time. After hearing Gao Lan's order, they finally loosened their bow strings.

Hundreds of arrows flew out and fell into the formation of the three Korean soldiers.

"ah!"

Screams suddenly came from the thousands of Korean soldiers. The burlap clothes on their bodies were almost completely defenseless. The sharp arrows penetrated the burlap without any hindrance and tore the skin. It shot into their bodies and blossomed into flowers of blood.

"Raise your shield!"

Although the three Han soldiers were miscellaneous soldiers, used to consume Yuan Jun's cannon fodder, if they were consumed too quickly, it would not be in Gongsun Du's interests, so Gongsun Du still allocated some leather shields from his arsenal. Compared with armor, leather shields are simpler to make, so among the 13,000 Korean soldiers, there are thousands of shields.

Facing the arrows flying down from the top of the city, the three Korean soldiers hurriedly raised their shields.

Puff puff!

The arrow hit the leather shield, making a heavy thumping sound. The leather shield was much more reliable than the clothes on his body, and it withstood many arrows.

"fight back!"

Gongsun Kang couldn't help but became furious when he saw that the Sanhan soldiers were consuming so much. Even if these people were just cannon fodder, they couldn't be consumed like this.

Under Gongsun Kang's order, the few archers among the three Korean soldiers raised their bows and fired back at the archers on the top of the city.

Whoosh whoosh! The arrows concentrated towards the fat arches of the city, making a thumping sound.

"Aim at the archers in the enemy formation, and consume the archers first!"

Seeing that there were archers in the Three Korean Army, Gao Lan frowned immediately. Without saying a word, he drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot an archer to death with his own hands. Seeing this, the defenders on the city naturally followed suit, but their archery skills were naturally not as good as Gao Lan's refined archery skills, and their damage was limited.

"The cavalry will assist and suppress the city!"

Gongsun Kang gave the order, and the two thousand Liaodong cavalry immediately dismounted. They were different from the 13,000 Han miscellaneous soldiers. They were all warriors who had experienced hundreds of battles. Naturally, their archery skills were also superb. They were excellent cavalry on horseback. , and dismounting is a sharpshooter who can pierce the Yangtze with a hundred steps.

The two thousand Liaodong cavalry turned into two thousand elite archers, and they immediately suppressed Feirucheng. The defenders on the top of the city were unable to raise their heads under the weight of their arrows, and they had to lower their heads and hide behind the city.

The 13,000 Korean soldiers who were suppressed by the enemy's arrows were greatly boosted in morale and took advantage of this time to accelerate forward.

"kill!"

The 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers finally broke through the suppression of Yuan Jun's archers, rushed under the city, launched ladder trucks, crash trucks and other siege weapons, and began the official siege.

The ladder on the ladder truck stretched out section by section, extending to the top of the city. The two iron hooks were like sharp claws gripping the top of the city.

One by one, the Sanhan soldiers stepped on the ladders, climbed on the city wall, and launched an attack on the city head.

"Throw all the logs and rocks at me, and pour the golden juice down!"

Gao Lan saw this situation, but he remained calm and unmoved. He commanded the guards on the top of the city to lift pieces of rolling wood and rocks and throw them down.

The rolling wood and stone rolled down with gravity, often breaking into a large piece. The soldiers of the Three Han Dynasties watched in horror as the rolling wood and stone fell down from their heads, causing their heads to be bruised and bleeding, and they fell from the ladder. The miscellaneous soldiers falling from above would naturally hit the crowd, causing a commotion immediately.

But this is nothing. The rolling wood and rocks hitting the body will only result in a bloody head and blood. The boiling and stinking golden juice has become a nightmare for the soldiers of the Three Han Dynasties.

The golden juice of boiled human feces was boiling. The guards lifted it up and poured it down, spreading it into a large area. The hot golden juice easily burned through the linen clothes they were wearing and burned their skin.

"ah!"

Countless Sanhan soldiers screamed and fell to the ground rolling around in pain. The pain of having golden juice pouring down from the head is really unspeakable. The high temperature and stench tortured these soldiers.

"No, I don't want to fight anymore, I want to go home!"

One of the Sanhan soldiers screamed, turned around and ran away, and like a signal, more and more Sanhan soldiers did not dare to continue attacking the city, but turned around and ran away.

Gao Lan, who was on top of the city, looked excited: "Sure enough, these soldiers are really useless, hahaha!"

"Master Liu, do you know what to do?" Gongsun Kang said calmly to Liu Yi beside him.

"Don't worry, eldest son, just leave it to me."

Liu Yice immediately stepped forward, surrounded by many Liaodong cavalry, and shouted loudly: "Put your bow and arrows, aim at these deserters!"

Squeak - there was an obscure sound of bows and strings drawn, and more than a thousand Liaodong cavalry aimed their bows and arrows at the fleeing soldiers of the Three Koreas. The arrow clusters shone with a sharp cold light, even if the leather armor was within fifty steps, it would They were torn apart by the three-edged arrows, not to mention the coarse clothes worn by this group of Sanhan soldiers.

"Stop it quickly, otherwise I will be rude!"

Liu Yi shouted in Sanhan dialect to the fleeing soldiers.

However, this group of miscellaneous soldiers had long been frightened out of their wits by the cruelty of the siege. They just kept running back without caring about anything.

"Looking for death, shoot an arrow!"

Liu Yi couldn't help but sneered when he saw this group of soldiers from the Three Koreas who didn't know how to live or die, and waved his hand without hesitation.

Whoosh whoosh!

As his arms waved, more than a thousand powerful arrows flew out and shot into the bodies of the fleeing Sanhan soldiers.

"ah!"

This group of Sanhan soldiers only numbered a few hundred, and the oncoming arrows were almost three times their number. The most unlucky Sanhan soldier was hit by more than a dozen arrows all over his body, with wounds everywhere and gurgling blood. outflow.

Most of the soldiers of the Three Han Dynasties fell to the ground directly after being hit by arrows. Only a few lucky ones were blocked by their companions.

"I say it again, go back!"

Under the bows and arrows raised by the Liaodong cavalry again, this group of three Korean soldiers became desperate. They did not dare to look back, so they had to turn around and rush toward the city head again.

This is the significance of the two thousand Liaodong cavalry. They are not used to attack the city, but to suppress the formation and drive the 13,000 Korean miscellaneous troops to attack the city.
