Chapter 224
"Why didn't Da Dao follow this time?" On Xihe's side, seeing that the pontoon bridge built for the third time was destroyed by Niu Fu's side, Guan Yu wished he could jump over to the other side of the river and cut him down.

The problem is that the distance between the two sides of the strait is too wide, so that this idea cannot be implemented at all.

At this moment, he misses Zhang He very much.

If he was here, he might be able to scold the other party so that he would take the initiative to build a pontoon bridge to fight over...

"If we all come out, who will guard the pass?" Le Jin replied, even at this moment he thought so.

It is clearer why Zhang He stayed behind, and if he is allowed to join the army, they will almost be useless.

If you leave Zhang He in the future, you may not be able to fight anymore.

Just this time, building a pontoon bridge is actually so troublesome.

"How is the preparation of the trebuchet?" Guan Yu was a little annoyed, mainly because the current situation was unprecedented.

But even if he was anxious, nothing could be seen on the surface.

It's better to say that even if you blushed anxiously, others wouldn't be able to see anything.

"It has been assembled and ready to be used at any time!" The soldiers of the siege battalion replied.

These are the catapults built by Zhang He before. In terms of range, they can definitely be thrown to the other side of the river, and they can suppress the opponent to some extent.

It was originally intended to be used to attack the city, but under the current situation, it can only be assembled here.

It's better to say that before this, everyone hoped to prove their ability, but they found out that they have a hairy ability!
Field unparalleled, but in other situations, everyone is no different from fledgling recruits.

Guan Yu misses Zhang He's time with the army very much, but he knows better that if he wants to make further progress, he must grow up.

If you just know how to fight in the field, then you will be a pioneer if you die.

"Put all the stones in!" Guan Yu ordered, and the soldiers of the siege battalion began to work.

They twisted the grips, depressed the levers, and at the same time loaded a large number of pebbles into the pouch.

As the hook is pressed, the lever snaps back, throwing the stone out.

Normally, it must be a stone bomb, but in a field battle, it is really not as useful as a pebble, especially on the riverside, these things are everywhere.

Ten trebuchets, throwing hundreds of stones.

Many did not fly across the river, but many still flew over and fell into the enemy's position.

For a while, the enemy army wailed continuously.

Even if there is a helmet and shield, if this thing falls, there will inevitably be places that cannot be protected, and that is not an ordinary pain.

"It works, very good, lay the floating bridge immediately! Catapult, adjust the direction!" Guan Yu ordered.

The first round is test firing, to get a general idea of ​​the location of the landing point, and it is necessary to make fine-tuning according to the actual situation.

Another group of soldiers has gone to collect pebbles, which may require a lot.

It's a pity that this is not a moat after all, otherwise we can consider filling this river...

Well, having this idea is probably a little dazed.

The entire laying process was very difficult, and there were also trebuchets on the other side, but they were much worse than those built by Zhang He.

But at a distance of hundreds of meters, it is still possible to hit the stone bullets.

If unfortunately it hits the floating bridge, no matter how it is laid, it will not be enough for the other party to hit it...

Although I didn't want to admit it, it was really difficult to attack Xihe County this time.

Dong Zhuo seems to have deployed heavy troops here, even if they wanted to come to hide, but all the places suitable for crossing the river were sent out by the other party.

When the army is about to cross the river, a large number of horses will bring the opponent's soldiers over to ensure the defense here.

These soldiers are not cavalry, but most of them can ride horses, and they can quickly move to the designated places by horses, which makes Guan Yu envious.

After all, there are only a thousand cavalry under his command.

At that time, there will be an army expansion plan this year, and I hope to expand the army by [-] more.

At least Liangzhou is already in the hands of the eldest brother, and the horse trade is continuing, so there will be more war horses in the army.

If it really counts, the actual war horse trade is completely controlled by Zhang He and the firm behind him.

The firm has the final say on how many horses can be sold each year, not to mention the price.

Zhang He is not a saint, and Zou Yu has the final say on the affairs of major commercial firms.

The price is based on preferential prices. If the government really can't afford the money, Zou Yu will ask to use some other things as collateral or exchange them.

"I can't do it this way, I can't beat him..." Le Jin struggled, he had finished fighting on the east side of the river, but he hadn't beaten him yet.

"Continue to lay the pontoon bridge, now Guan will find a way!" Guan Yu thought for a while.

The pontoon bridge is laid to about 50 meters from the river bank. This time is the most dangerous, after all, the opponent's catapult will hit it.

However, the catapult on my side is capable of throwing stones, but it can't hit the opponent's catapult...

It's not that the performance is bad, but that the river is indeed too wide.

After giving the order, Guan Yu turned back, put on his armor and mounted his horse, while Zhou Cang obediently handed over the Qinglong Yanyue Saber.

"Yuan Fu, prepare to follow me!" Guan Yu shouted.

"Here!" Zhou Cang waited for this sentence for a long time.Immediately, he took down the shield from behind, and drew out the ring sword at his waist to prepare for battle.

"Practice riding and martial arts when you have time, otherwise you will suffer a lot from fighting on the battlefield." Guan Yu looked at Zhou Cang and urged.

"I'll just be by the general's side. I'm faster than a horse, so I don't need to ride a horse!" Zhou Cang retorted.

Guan Yu shook his head, Zhou Cang is still young, it's okay to be by his side, it's not good to continue like this.

After all, he is Zhou Sheng's son, so he can't always be his own soldier.

If conditions permit, he should be trained until he can lead the army independently, at least he will be his lieutenant general.

"Yuan Fu, if you want to help me, you must at least become a lieutenant general." Guan Yu changed his words.

"Okay, I will work hard!" Zhou Cang immediately agreed.

Seeing this, Guan Yu was really speechless, if he had known that he had just said that.

Shaking his head secretly in his heart, with Zhou Cang's attitude, when will he grow up, and how will he become independent?

"Wait a minute, General Guan, do you mean it?" Seeing that Guan Yu was about to act, Le Jin stepped forward immediately.

"Is there a better way?" Guan Yu replied, "If not, just get out of the way!"

It's hard for Le Jin to say anything, after all, the laying of the pontoon bridge is really a problem now.

But there are more than a dozen trebuchets on the opposite side, and more than a dozen stone bullets will be thrown towards Guan Yu by then.

If something happened, how would I explain it to Liu Shijun?

Just talking about the other three sworn brothers, probably won't let me go.

"Can you jump over?" Guan Yu touched the horse's back.

"Hiss!" Chi Che responded, but of course it's hard to say whether it was a response, maybe it was just a random call.

Chizu is indeed not as smart as Heiyun. The problem is that Heiyun is too smart, almost as intelligent as human beings.

On the contrary, the red oyster is considered smart among horses, as long as the black cloud is not taken into consideration.

"Fight!" Guan Yu urged Chizu to move, and the latter rushed out like a flowing fire.

At that time, the pontoon bridge was less than 20 meters away from the other side of the river, but the opponent's trebuchet had already thrown a large number of stones towards it.

As a result, at this moment, a stream of light burst out quickly, and then jumped up suddenly.

In mid-air, Guan Yu waved the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand, and split a few stone bullets so that they could not cause damage to the pontoon bridge.

As the front foot of the red turtle landed on the ground, with a small jump, it smoothly came to the other side of the river.

"Kill!" Guan Yu didn't say a word, and killed the opponent's trebuchet.

"Quickly, lay the pontoon bridge!" Le Jin shouted, but before he finished speaking, Tai Shici had already rode his horse and crossed the opposite bank.

 Chapter 3 is rushed out, and sometimes I really have to push myself.I get up at two o'clock in the afternoon. If I don't go out, I can theoretically catch up with a chapter. It depends on whether I want to catch up on sleep, or play games or something.
