Chapter 316

"Lord Su, do you think we have any chance of winning this siege battle?"

Ju Shou, while observing the war situation, suddenly asked Su Li out of the blue.

"With Military Advisor Ju here, it is naturally not a problem."

Su Li slightly flattered Ju Shou.

"Lord Su is joking, I don't think it will be that easy..."

A hint of worry appeared in Ju Shou's tone, "Zhang Bao's ability is even more formidable than I imagined. Just the Earthly Fiend Star Art laid down a few days ago almost wiped out our entire army."

"If it weren't for you, Lord Su, turning the tide! We might not have been able to reach Julu City."

"Now even if we set up a formation to attack Julu, I have a worry that Zhang Bao will use even more terrifying arts later."

"At that time, I don't know if we can still resist."

Ju Shou's worry is not unreasonable.

They haven't even seen Zhang Bao's face yet, and they almost had their entire army wiped out, if not for Su Li leading his troops to display great power yesterday.

But Su Li himself also knew clearly that the reason he was able to turn the tide yesterday was entirely because of the existence of that mysterious person, which allowed him, Zhao Yu, and the Crimson Blood Cavalry to be unaffected by the Earthly Fiend Star Art.

If there were no mysterious person, they would also have reduced stamina and fallen into a weakened state, leading to the total collapse of the entire Han army camp.

In other words, the reason they won yesterday was not because Su Li and the Crimson Blood Cavalry were so powerful, but mainly because of the existence of that mysterious person.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable.

But if they encountered the same situation as yesterday later, would there still be a mysterious person to help?

This is an unknown.

It is precisely because of this unknown that the ending of this attack on Julu City has become confusing.

Even Su Li did not have full confidence that he could achieve the final victory.

However, for some reason, he had a feeling in his heart.

Even if they encountered a predicament again, the mysterious person might still help.

Not for anything else, just for the sentence the mysterious person said before leaving.

When they break Julu City, he will tell them what he needs help with.

It is precisely because of this feeling that Su Li's expression became firm, and he smiled at Ju Shou: "Military Advisor Ju, don't worry too much. Since ancient times, evil cannot prevail over good. Although the Yellow Turbans hold the banner of uprising, they are ultimately a group of thieves who have plundered countless commoners and slaughtered countless villages in secret."

"I believe that we, representing the common people of the world, will definitely be able to suppress the Yellow Turbans."

"What a 'representing the common people of the world'!"

Ju Shou was also invigorated after hearing Su Li say this: "Then I will take Lord Su's auspicious words!"

Subsequently, Ju Shou's gaze fell on Julu City in front, "Let each unit start the attack, prepare the catapult formation, as long as the siege tower approaches the moat, throw stones immediately, cover the siege tower formation to lower the drawbridge, then the other siege engines will press up, we must take Julu City today!"

With one order, the flag-bearing troops around the tower vehicle waved their flags to convey orders to the various square formations in the distance.

This is the advantage brought by a military advisor deploying troops.

Once an instruction is given at the center, it can be conveyed to the various units in the front most quickly and directly.

Then each square formation begins to follow the instructions, attacking or defending in an orderly manner.

Being able to achieve this level is enough to show that Ju Shou's command value is not low.

It is simply what is called planning in the strategy room and winning a thousand miles away.

And under Ju Shou's instruction, the catapult square formations in the rear had also begun to load artillery stones. Their task was to assist the elite archers on the siege towers to jointly suppress the enemy Yellow Turban firepower on the Julu City wall.

At this time.

The siege tower formation and the front formation troops were also slowly approaching Julu City.

"Charge!"

"Kill!"

Not long after, the charging sounds of the front formation troops roared, carrying the bonus of the formation commanded by Ju Shou, and launched a strong attack on Julu City!

Several towering siege towers, several powerful catapults, battering rams, and tens of thousands of front formation troops were put into battle, beginning to fiercely attack the city wall directly in front of Julu City.

At the same time.

In the direction of other city walls of Julu City, Ju Shou also organized a group of elite troops with scaling ladder vehicles to make a feint attack.

For a time.

The flames of war were ignited around Julu City.

On the other side, the Yellow Turbans on the Julu City wall had long been prepared, and various defensive equipment had been loaded, siege crossbows, spiked boards, and large catapults.

And there were also dense Yellow Turban archer units standing on the city wall, like a honeycomb.

And it is worth mentioning.

Standing on the city tower, the one responsible for commanding was not Earth Duke General Zhang Bao, one of the three giants of the Yellow Turbans; even looking at the entire Julu City wall or city tower, there was no trace of Zhang Bao.

The general responsible for commanding was Huang Shao and Gao Sheng, who had fled back yesterday.

It was still Huang Shao as the main general and Gao Sheng as the deputy general.

They were also deploying troops, pushing the only two catapults in Julu City to a conspicuous place to suppress the Han army's siege engines, and divided the Yellow Turban archer unit into two teams, placing them next to the two catapults respectively. Huang Shao raised a hand.

"Catapults ready!"

The Han army was still approaching.
