Guo Jia, the ghost of the strongest military division

Chapter 185 Xu Shu vs Cao Cao
After beating the flying stone chariots of the officers and soldiers, Guo Jia immediately put away the artillery carts. Both the artillery and the shells are treasures. One is less than the other.

Besides, this is not Lunu City, and the supply of shells is insufficient, so it is better to save some.

Yuan Zhi!

Guo Jia smiled and said, "I'll leave it to you for the time being."

Under him, Xi Zhong is the most popular in terms of resourcefulness.

Xi Zhong is thoughtful and thoughtful, and has the ability to control the overall situation. He is Guo Jiake's right-hand man.

With him sitting in Lu Nu, Guo Jia was able to fight everywhere with peace of mind.

Xu Shu is an all-round talent in both civil and military affairs. He can manage the army when he is on horseback, and he can manage the people when he is off his horse. He also has a lot of research on the art of war and strategy.

promise!
Xu Shu was overjoyed, he was already eager to try.

"The ballista is ready!"

The soldiers defending the city launched more than a dozen crossbow carts.

It is said that Xu Shu stayed in Wuji County for half a year and was not prepared for anything.

The so-called ballista is an enlarged crossbow, which is pulled by a winch and shoots arrows of short spear length with a range of about 150 meters.

The arrows can be covered with tarpaulins, which can ignite the enemy's siege equipment after firing.

"Fire it up!"

Xu Shu shouted.

A dozen ballistas fired a round of rockets.

The range of the ballista is higher than that of the bow, so the ballista still has an advantage before the ballista is pushed to 100 meters.

Whoosh whoosh!
Dozens of rockets hit the Jinglan, but Cao Cao had already prepared and poured mud on the Jinglan.The rockets fired by the ballista can't burn the well rail.

Keep shooting!

Xu Shu didn't feel any surprise.

He also knew that the experienced officers and soldiers were not so easy to defeat.

Ever since, the officers and soldiers guarded the well and slowly moved forward.

As long as it is 20 meters ahead, the crossbowmen on Jinglan can suppress the power of the city.

Catapult!
Xu Shu accepted the challenge calmly, and rolled out several catapults again from the top of the city.

After seeing the power of Guo Jia's artillery, Xu Shu also moved his mind and ordered people to build several catapults.

Of course, the accuracy and range cannot be compared with Guo Jia's, but it is enough for defending the city.

The catapult was in place, and several gunners carried the crock up, which contained kerosene.

This is also Guo Jia's incendiary bomb that inspired Xu Shu, and he followed the same pattern to make a kerosene jar, but he didn't know about gunpowder, so the incendiary bomb didn't have the function of exploding.

Get ready to light a fire!

Xu Shu let out a loud roar, and several catapults threw the burning tins into the well of the officers and soldiers.

Whoa, whoa!
The cupping pot hit the well rail and shattered, and the kerosene was poured on the wood. Although it was covered with mud, a raging fire was also ignited due to the pouring of kerosene.

Half of the ten well rails were on fire, and the officers and soldiers were busy putting out the flames, but the remaining five were still pushed to a distance of 100 meters.

Whoosh whoosh!
The archers on the well began to attack.

For a moment, the arrows shot towards the top of the city like locusts.

"Defense!"

Xu Shu continued to shout.

The defenders on the top of the city raised their big shields and curled up inside.

The archers behind also fought back under the cover of the sword and shield hand.

Although Jinglan's firepower did not cover a wide area, it was far taller than the defenders on the city wall, and the archers were also condescending, and quickly suppressed the bows and crossbows at the top of the city.

Rush!
Cao Cao drew his sword and pointed.

The vanguard of infantry began to fill the moat.

With the cover of Jing Lan, they were safer.

But the crossbowmen at the top of the city turned around and shot at the infantry of the officers and soldiers filling the moat one after another.

The officers and soldiers screamed miserably, and many people were shot by arrows, but no one retreated.

This section of the road was originally made of flesh and blood.

After hundreds of casualties, the government army still filled the moat.

very good!

Cao Cao waved his hand.

The former army quickly pressed in, and the damaged wells were repaired, and they were cast on the battlefield again.

But his center did not move forward.

Because Cao Cao was very afraid of Guo Jia's crock.

That thing has a long range, can explode and catch fire, and he can't figure out what it is.

Go!

The heavy infantry rushed under the city wall again against the rain of arrows.

Behind them, light infantry, spearmen, ladders, and rush cars drove up one by one and entered the combat position.

"The Rolling Stone Leigi Golden Juice is ready!"

Xu Shu shouted in a deep voice.

Guo Jia's command system has retreated to the second city gate.

In order to deal with the Yellow Turban Army, Xu Shu had already sent people to build the Urn City in front of the city gate.

The two sides launched a fierce siege battle.

Xu Shu stood at the top of the city with his sword drawn, calmly watching the surrounding battle situation. Occasionally, when an arrow came, he just swung his sword and the long arrow disappeared.

"The first team is Rolling Stone, the second team is Lei Mu, and the third team is Golden Juice!"

"Archers, follow up, the ballista is withdrawn."

"Retreat the trebuchet, don't put it on the top of the wall to get in the way."

Although the battle was fierce, Xu Shu's command was still orderly.

The Rolling Stone, Leimu and Jinjue slanted down one after another, immediately smashing the siege troops of the general army.

The so-called golden juice is boiled dung water.

Although this stuff smells bad, if it is poured on the wound, it will cause inflammation.

Inflammation is basically unsolvable in this era without antibiotics.

Several attacks by the officers and soldiers were extinguished by Xu Shu commanding the top of the city. Occasionally, a bold official army with high skills attacked the top of the city, but they were also wiped out by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei who supervised the battle.

After doing this several times, Cao Cao was also very surprised.

"Who is the scribe commanding at the head of the city?"

After he led the army to go out, he has been invincible all the time. This is the first time he has encountered a serious opponent.

The person on the side replied: "This person's surname is Xu Mingshu, he is a fellow of Guo Jia, and he is also from Yingchuan."

Yingchuan people!
Cao Cao nodded.

There are many scholars in Yingchuan, which is the holy place for scholars of the Han Dynasty.

It was originally a battle of superiority, but under Xu Shu's command, it became a war of attrition.

Even if it is a war of attrition, Cao Cao is not afraid, anyway, his strength is superior.

"The whole army is divided into three teams, one for attacking the city, one for support, and one for rest."

Cao Cao issued a military order.

This is the best way to fight a war of attrition. It can allow all soldiers to get enough rest and help them persist until the end.

He had lost his patience and pushed the Chinese army out of the moat.

Xu Shu really can stand on his own!
Guo Jia, who was watching the battle on the Erdao City Wall, nodded in satisfaction.

As long as Xu Shu is given sufficient troops and supplies, Wuji County will be as stable as Mount Tai.

Even Cao Aman couldn't break the city easily.

At this moment, Guo Jia can go back to sleep and leave everything to Xu Shu.

But he still has a lot of things to do, he doesn't have time to spend with Cao Cao, and besides, he doesn't want his subordinates to make unnecessary sacrifices.

"The artillery is ready, aim at Cao Aman's Chinese army, and blast this bastard out of me!"

Guo Jia immediately ordered.
