Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 843 The Counterattack Begins

"Brother, when will you go out of the city to kill the enemy, the soldiers have already recovered!"

Early in the morning, Zhang Xiong came to ask Wu Shun for a challenge.

In Zhang Xiong's view, Wu Shun was too cautious, and with the current strength of Cao Cao and Zhou Yu, it was really not worth it.

"Second brother, don't be in a hurry. You must know that sharpening a knife is not a mistake for woodcutters. The sharper our knife is, the better."

Wu Shun said.

It has been 15 years since Jian'an, and the New Year is celebrated in Xuzhou.

It's just that this made the people of Xuzhou cry. They were affected by the war and lived in dire straits. Being able to survive is a gift from God. As for celebrating the New Year, they really have no interest.

Throughout January 15, apart from the occasional Wuling Army going to the coalition camp to fight, the two sides were in a tacit confrontation.

It seems that this first month, people don't really want to fight!
In fact, Wu Shun wanted to launch a surprise attack, but was stopped by Xu Shu and others who arrived later.Just because the weather is too cold, it is not suitable for large-scale operations.

And some small battles can't affect the overall situation. It's better to let the soldiers take a good rest and wait until the weather gets warmer before attacking the coalition forces.

The coalition forces did not take the initiative to attack because they were afraid of being ambushed. The weapons of the Wuling army were so powerful that it was impossible to defend against them. They dared not attack and were reluctant to retreat.We can only stand there!

In February of the 15th year of Jian'an, the climate began to warm up, and it was no longer so cold. The Qinglong Cavalry of the Wuling Army had resumed training, preparing for the upcoming counterattack.

Wu Shun really couldn't bear the generals' call for battle, and finally decided to launch an offensive against the coalition camp in the middle of the month.

With time to counterattack, all legions are gearing up!

The gunners of the Suzaku Legion wiped the Puyuan cannon every day, and the inside and outside of it were polished to an incomparable brightness, just waiting to use this big killer to make new achievements.

……

Cao Cao and Zhou Yu have been informed of all the movements of the Wuling Army.

They were not ready to attack Xuzhou City yet, Wu Shun wanted to attack their camp first, this was unbearable anyway, they should be the main attacking side.

attack?Several major armies of the Wuling Army are present, so there is no chance of winning!
defense?The cannons, giant crossbows, continuous crossbows, and catapults of the Suzaku Legion are enough to cause headaches!

At the end of the discussion, Cao Cao and Zhou Yu sadly discovered that they seemed to have no advantage at all except to retreat.

But retreat, really too unwilling!
When it is interrupted, it will suffer from chaos!
When the coalition forces were undecided, the Wuling Army had already prepared everything.

On February 15th of the [-]th year of Jian'an, the Wuling army left Xuzhou City, and pointed their spearhead at the coalition camp twenty miles away.

The coalition scouts got the news and hurriedly reported that Cao Cao and Zhou Yu were also ready in the camp, ready to face the battle!
When they came to the camp of the coalition forces, the two sides did not say anything redundant all the way, and the shelling distance was just right, so Wu Shun ordered the Puyuan cannon to attack.He is here to fight the war, not to reminisce about the old days.

As soon as the cannon rang, a great battle began!

The Puyuan Pao kept spewing shells, and kept attacking the camp of the coalition forces. From a distance, one could see the mess of the camp in the distance, and the people turned their backs!

After the Puyuan cannon, there is a catapult with a shorter range. If the main target of the Puyuan cannon is the enemy, then the target of the catapult is some obstacles set by the coalition forces, such as rejecting horses, such as camp gates, arrow towers...

The Wuling army advanced steadily all the way, and the long-range weapons showed off their muscles one by one!

After the giant crossbow stopped, arm-thick crossbow arrows shot into the coalition camp, causing bursts of exclamations.

And Liannu directly shot the archers prepared by Cao Cao, killing more than half of them!
The coalition forces cannot stop the Wuling Army's offensive!

Lu Guo's thunderbolt chariot was very powerful, but it only fired one round.After the location was exposed, it was directly blown up by the Puyuan Cannon...

Cao Cao and Zhou Yu watched their arrangement being unreasonably knocked down by Wu Shun, feeling very upset.

Now that things have happened, they can only rely on the big battalion to have a head-to-head contest with the Wuling army.

However, this is exactly what Wu Shun wanted.

Seeing that the allied forces did not flee, Wu Shungao glanced at Cao Cao and Zhou Yu, but they did not run away. Wei Yan's cavalry had temporarily become a display.How good would it have been if I knew it was directly used to attack the camp?

However, the ability of the personal guard battalion to charge the battalion was not weaker than that of the Qinglong cavalry. The reason why Wu Shun wanted to use his infantry to run over him was because he was afraid that Cao Cao would dig a horse pit in front of the camp.

Trapping a horse pit is a very costly method. Instead of digging directly down, it turns down a corner. As long as the horse steps on one, it will be 100% reimbursed!

When the cavalry charged into the formation, the front horse stepped on the horse pit, and the consequences were disastrous!

For the sake of the safety of the personal guard camp, Wu Shun asked the White Tiger Legion to push all the way to the front of the camp!Even used pawns to charge the camp gate once!
After filling up all the horse traps in front of the camp gate, the first charge of the guard camp began!
The pawns have sat enough for them, now it's time to see what they can do!
The sound of rumbling horseshoes came, and the infantry quickly separated from the sides, making way for the cavalry.

Between the two rows of guard battalions came side by side, and between the two rows of cavalry, a ram was suspended in the air!
Two rows of cavalry dragged the ropes and moved at extreme speed with the bumper!The guard battalion will use this method to break open the camp gate of the coalition forces at once!
"Three! Two! One! Let it go!" Qu'a gave an order, and the two rows of soldiers rushing forward at high speed pulled the rope back with all their might. The soldiers let go of the rope, and following the huge inertial force, they rushed out of the two rows of cavalry battalions, and slammed into the camp gate heavily!

The camp gate, which was not very strong, was knocked open in an instant, and the coalition soldiers in the rear were even knocked into one piece, and many people were hit to death on the spot!

"Soldiers, rush in!" The gate of the camp opened, Qu'a no longer hesitated, and immediately took the lead, leading the personal guard battalion to rush in.

Xu Chu, who had not yet recovered from his injuries, saw Qu'a's ferocity, ignored Cao Cao's dissuasion, and resolutely led the Tiger Guards forward, trying to intercept Qu'a and block the camp gate to prevent the Wuling army from pouring in.

The infantry blocked the cavalry, and it was Wu Shun's heavy cavalry that blocked them. The huge impact and penetrating power made Qu'a break through the interception directly, and bumped into the large formation of the Lu Guohu Guards who were rushing to support.

The Tiger Guards were no different than other coalition soldiers. They belonged to Cao Cao's personal guards, were well equipped and powerful, and were commanded by Xu Chu. The Tiger Guards were very brave.

After the personal guard battalion broke through the interception in front, the impact force weakened a lot, and when it encountered the tiger guard army, it was stopped.

Seeing Xu Chu's attack, Qu'a's fighting spirit rose, and he raised his gun to fight Xu Chu.

Seeing this, the soldiers spontaneously formed a multi-person offensive battle formation, entangled with the Tiger Guards!
Wu Shun was not in a hurry when the personal guard battalion was stopped, because Gao Shun led the White Tiger Battalion and had already charged into the enemy camp.

Facing the coalition soldiers who were also infantry, the White Tiger Battalion had a huge advantage. When they rushed their shields, stabbed their spears, and swung their swords, the enemy on the opposite side could only be headed.

Fighting head-on with the White Tiger Battalion, the coalition forces lost miserably!
