Chapter 314
After yesterday's battle, the various Han army units still had nearly seventy or eighty thousand troops left.
After gathering, more than a dozen siege engines were also ready, and the center army was held by warriors carrying the Han army's big flag.
Not only that, Ju Shou also let Liu, Guan, and Zhang be the vanguard for this siege.
Originally, Ju Shou suggested that Su Li lead the Crimson Blood Cavalry to take on the role of vanguard, but he was decisively refused by Su Li.
Just kidding, being a vanguard, although there is a chance to get a lot of merit, would also make one the target of public criticism.
If it were before, Su Li might still have risked doing such a thing.
But now.
Forget it.
An existence like Zhang Bao is truly too scary.
What if he set a trap similar to the Earthly Fiend Star Art in Julu City?
Then...
Afraid, afraid.
It's better to let Liu Bei, who is forced to make merit, lead Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to take the lead.
Wouldn't it be wonderful for him to lead Zhao Yu and the Crimson Blood Cavalry behind and act according to the situation!
Looking back at the battlefield, the city wall of Julu City, which was over twenty meters high, allowed the Yellow Turbans to have a superior geographical defensive advantage.
30 In the Han army, Liu, Guan, and Zhang led the vanguard troops drawn from the subordinates of Pan Feng and Changshan Prefect Deng Song, lined up in front of the formation.
Archers were on the two wings, responsible for support fire.
As for Su Li, after refusing to be the vanguard, Ju Shou did not arrange any other tasks for him and the Crimson Blood Cavalry; perhaps he wanted to use him as a trump card.
Su Li was naturally happy to be free; without tasks, he could act more flexibly according to the situation.
"Start the attack!"
With one order.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
……
Just see in the conspicuous place, dozens of warriors in the army beating war drums, the sound of drums shaking the sky and the earth, all the soldiers began to boil with blood, and the world was suddenly filled with a murderous atmosphere!
Attack Julu City!
Officially started!
First, a unit of ten thousand formed a siege formation, and various large siege engines were pushed by the mechanical unit's troops.
Among them, the most eye-catching was the siege tower that was more than ten meters high, almost as high as Julu City.
This is a siege engine with a tall tower body that can carry people, equipped with rollers at the bottom, equivalent to a mobile arrow tower.
Perhaps this is really not the Eastern Han dynasty in history; this product, which was originally only born in later eras, actually appeared in this siege battle.
And in the position at the very top of the siege tower where troops can be placed, stood the most elite archer unit among the Jizhou troops brought by Pan Feng.
This group of archers had solemn expressions, and their goal was to suppress the Huang Jin archers on the Julu City wall.
To create conditions for the infantry below to move the siege tower, gradually approach the moat of Julu City, lower the drawbridge prepared on the siege tower, and allow other troops to transport other siege engines, continuously approaching the city gate or city wall of Julu City.
Just this siege tower, which was nearly half the height of Julu City, was enough to make the Yellow Turbans defending on the city wall feel terrified.
