Three Kingdoms: Jiuyuan Tiger

Chapter 384 Cao Wei Famous General Zhu Ling
More than [-] Jizhou troops formed dozens of siege arrays, holding up shields and carrying ladders, and rushed towards Bohai City.

Behind them is a covering formation composed of crossbowmen.

The overwhelming rain of arrows flew into the air and then fell towards the top of the city, causing great trouble to the defenders on the tower.

After the defenders occupied the terrain and began to shoot back, the rain of arrows in midair became more and more.

The sound of the bowstring ringing was endless, and soldiers were shot and fell off the ladder from time to time, turning into a puddle of flesh.

From time to time, the defenders on the top of the city were shot by arrows and fell from the top of the city to die.

The rain of arrows was dense, some fell on the ground, some shot on shields, or shot on people's bodies, and the continuous screams sounded instantly.

The siege ladder was erected, and the first climber in armor held a large shield and began to climb the ladder.

Xiandeng dead soldiers are not exclusive to Ju Yi, each unit will have corresponding Xiandeng who are responsible for the siege, and at this point in time, the Xiandeng dead soldiers under Ju Yi's command did not appear.

The guards on the tower were desperately throwing down the rolling logs and stones, and the boiling golden juice was also poured down the city.

The armored soldiers who climbed the city were not frightened by this, they still held their shields and stepped on the ladder to climb to the top of the city.

Rolling logs and stones were thrown down from the top of the city, and all the soldiers who climbed first and the soldiers who attacked the city were smashed with flesh and blood by the huge stone.

The arrows poured down like a torrential rain, never stopping, reaping the lives of the soldiers on both sides like the sickle of death.

Tens of thousands of arrows are fired from the top of the city, and the attack from below the city wall is like a tide. This is the true portrayal of this tough battle.

The overwhelmed soldiers of the Jizhou army, like an ant colony, poured endlessly towards Bohai City, showing a posture that they would never stop until they broke the city.

Zhu Ling, Jiang Yiqu and others were busy, wandering around the city wall and commanding soldiers to fight.

If you don't pay attention, there will be a ladder on the city wall, and if you don't pay attention, you will be taken advantage of by the Jizhou army.

While it wouldn't be too much of a hassle to go up one or more of the towers first, the impact on morale would be immeasurable.

It is precisely because of this that whenever a city is attacked, the leader of the attacking party will usually give an order to his soldiers: "The first climber will be rewarded with a thousand gold!"

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, and it is precisely because of this reward of a thousand gold that the first dead soldiers put their heads on their belts to die.

Hitting and hitting, the defenders on the tower began to slow down the speed of throwing the rolling logs and rocks downward, and the archers also slowed down the frequency of shooting arrows.

Although the defensive equipment is enough for the time being, there are not many left after fighting for so long, so I can only grit my teeth and save some!

Even though Zhu Ling has sent people to continue demolishing the house, they can't quench their thirst. Before the arrival of new rolling logs and stones, these defenders must save some money!

What's more, even if there are enough rolling logs, stones and arrows, the defenders will not be able to continue attacking at the previous frequency.

The soldiers defending the city had changed twice, but at this time the soldiers still felt exhausted for a while.

Now the soldiers throwing logs and stones and the group of archers can only continue to fight by instinct and the obsession in their hearts.

They want to stop and rest for a while, but they really can't.

Not to mention these soldiers, even Zhu Ling, Jiang Yiqu and other generals commanded the battle with bloodstained faces and hoarse voices.

They didn't expend too much physical strength, but their mental exhaustion was far more serious than their physical exhaustion.

At noon, this tough battle was temporarily over.

There was a sound of gold ringing in the Jizhou army formation, and the soldiers of the Jizhou army formed a formation and slowly retreated back to the main formation.

Under the city wall, dark red blood and corpses interweave into a tragic picture.

The dead and the wounded were mixed together, and the groans of pain still sounded from time to time. Countless corpses and seriously injured people who were about to die were abandoned in the city.

After a day of fierce fighting, the soldiers on both sides no longer had fear and compassion, and only fatigue and numbness remained in their bodies and minds.

Zhu Ling, whose armor was stained with blood, stood at the head of the city, cast his eyes on the retreating Jizhou army, and then sighed slowly.

This battle is not easy to fight!

After roughly estimating the corpses under the city, Zhu Ling estimated that the battle damage ratio was about three to one.

But even this battle loss ratio is not acceptable to Yuan Jun in Bohai City!

You must know the strength of the two sides, but it is six to one!

Five thousand to thirty thousand, so what about a three-to-one battle loss ratio?
After fighting like this, the Jizhou Army only needs two large-scale attacks to break through Bohai City!
The four generals Zhu Ling, Zhang Nan, Jiang Qi, and Jiang Yiqu discussed how to proceed. After all, it is impossible to defend Bohai City by sticking to it.

Among these four people, except for Zhu Ling who is a little bit capable, the rest of them can be classified as the soy sauce party, so these people are implicitly headed by Zhu Ling.

The year of Zhang Nan's birth and death is unknown, and there are very few related deeds. He is a complete soy sauce party.

The two people Jiang Qi and Jiang Yiqu are interesting. Many versions say that Jiang Qi's word is Yiqu, that is, they are the same person.

Judging from the romance alone, these two people are obviously not the same person.

Jiang Qi was beheaded by Zhang Liao when he was rescuing Wuchao: "Send Jiang Qi to lead [-] troops to rescue Wuchao. I met Jiang Qi's army and horses. The Qi army asked him, saying that Wuchao's defeated army ran back, and Qi was not suspicious. Zhang Liao and Xu Chu suddenly arrived and shouted: "Jiang Qixiu go!" Qi was caught off guard and was beheaded by Zhang Liao under his horse, killing all Jiang Qi's soldiers.";
And Jiang Yiqu is the guard stationed in Liyang: "Yuan Shao put on a scarf and single clothes, and led more than [-] riders to the north bank of Liyang. Wen Shao is here, and the ants are gathering again."

Jiang Qi had died in the Battle of Guandu. Judging from the novel, Jiang Qi and Jiang Yiqu were obviously two generals under Yuan Shao's command, not the same person.

No one knows the real situation, even Lu Bu has no way of knowing whether this world is the world in the romance or the real historical world.

However, according to various circumstances, the world of Romance may be larger, but it is not exactly the same as the world of Romance.

As for Zhu Ling, this one can be regarded as the one who will live the best and live the longest among the four.

Zhu Ling, courtesy name Wenbo, was born in Qinghe, Jizhou.

At first Zhu Ling was a general under Yuan Shao's command. When Cao Cao attacked Tao Qian, Yuan Shao sent Zhu Ling and others to lead the army to assist Cao Cao.

After seeing Cao Cao, Zhu Ling felt a little "love at first sight". He directly believed that Cao Cao was Yuan Shao's master, so he betrayed Yuan Shao and took the Jizhou soldiers under his command to surrender to Cao Cao's account.

After serving Boss Cao, Zhu Ling followed Boss Cao in the South and North Wars, participated in many battles such as attacking Yuan Shu and conquering Ma Chao, and made repeated military exploits.

But despite Zhu Ling's numerous military achievements, he has never been trusted by Boss Cao, and has always been suspected and guarded by Boss Cao.

Why is this?It stands to reason that it is not easy for a general to do this, right?

In fact, it's not Boss Cao's fault. What Zhu Ling did earlier made Boss Cao unable to trust him at all.

When Zhu Ling served as Yuan Shao's general, Ji Yong betrayed Yuan Shao in Qicheng and surrendered to Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan sent troops to Qicheng to help Ji Yong defend the city.

Yuan Shao ordered Zhu Ling to lead troops to attack, but Zhu Ling's family members were all in the city, so Gongsun Zan tied Zhu Ling's mother and younger brother to the city to lure Zhu Ling to surrender.

Zhu Lingwangcheng wept for a while, and then staged a scene of killing relatives righteously.

Zhu Ling led troops to capture Qicheng and captured Ji Yong alive, but Zhu Ling's family was killed.

What kind of person is Boss Cao?That is a hero who sometimes doesn't even trust his own son. Zhu Ling did such a thing, and he directly betrayed his old master and surrendered to Cao. All these made Boss Cao unable to trust him.

"Three Kingdoms · Yu Jin Biography" contains: "The Taizu often hated Zhu Ling and wanted to seize his camp. With the prestige of ban, he sent dozens of banned generals, and issued orders to go to Lingying to seize his army. Ling and his The people don't dare to move."

This move was Cao Cao's choice to help Cao Pi solve future threats. Sending others to Boss Cao was afraid that he would not be able to shock Zhu Ling, so he directly sent his confidant General Yu Jin out.

Since then, Zhu Ling lost his military power, and Boss Cao never gave him a chance to lead the army again.

In this way, the famous Cao Wei general was depressed and finally died at home.

What Zhu Ling did was actually the benevolent see benevolence and the wise see wisdom. It's a pity that he picked the wrong master. If another master voted for him, his end might not be so miserable.

　One more!
