Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 69: Move to Guangzong City
Chutian didn't think much about the possibility of competing with Liu Bei for the Qing and Xu states in the future. Regardless of whether Liu Bei chooses to develop in Youzhou or Qingzhou, Chutian cannot decide. The only thing he can do is to strengthen his own strength.
Even without Liu Bei, Boss Cao is still in nearby Yanzhou, which is equally disturbing.
Xuzhou is the land of four battles.
Except for the sea to the east... No, if the borders of the civilized area are open, the sea is not necessarily safe.
On the fourth day, Liu Bei led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Han Qi to leave the Han army camp.
Military Sima Zhang Tie summoned all the lords.
They are moving camp.
Beizhong Lang removed Lu Zhi from this vacant army and participated in the siege battle against Guangzong County.
This time the siege was more difficult than the Yellow Turban camp.
The level of Guangzong County is an intermediate city, and it is also the base camp of Zhang Jiao. Therefore, the city wall has been raised and reinforced by the Yellow Turban Army. It is eight meters high and the base is ten meters thick.
Hearing that they were going to attack a medium-sized city, all the lords were a little uneasy.
The eight-meter-high city wall is no longer a fortification that can be captured by a simple ladder.
It is ten times more difficult to attack Guangzong County than a Yellow Turban camp.
Fortunately, the main force in this siege was Lu Zhi, the general of Beizhong Lang, and the elite of the Han army led by him.
"Break out!"
As the Han army pulled out of the camp, the lords in the camp followed. Unless the lord has the ability to change the battle situation by himself in the mid-term, it is better to follow the Han army. There are only dozens or hundreds of lords who leave the main force of the Han army and die.
"Finally got a chance to meet Lu Zhi."
Chu Tian's evaluation of Lu Zhi is not low. After all, the other party is one of the three heroes of the late Han Dynasty. He is currently in charge of the last elite of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Lu Zhi's military camp was outside Guangzong County, and there were tens of thousands of Han troops and hundreds of thousands of volunteer troops.
In history, Lu Zhi didn't have so many soldiers and horses, but the area in "Lord" expanded tenfold, and the population also increased greatly, so the number of the Han army and the Yellow Turban army skyrocketed. Coupled with the fact that the various lords led their troops to come to support, it seemed that there was a huge crowd.
"This is the main force of the Han army in Jizhou!"
Chu Tian was shocked. There were thousands of Han troops patrolling the perimeter of the barracks.
These are elite soldiers of Tier 3 or above, with a high level.
Not only that, but Chutian riding on a warhorse could see the tall siege towers in the Han army barracks.
This is the first time he has seen a large siege machine.
The flying ladder I used before was just a simple cloud ladder, with low technical content, but flexible and convenient.
This time to attack Guangzong County, it is obviously not realistic to use a simple ladder to climb the eight-meter-high city wall.
In order to capture Guangzong City, Lu Zhi had prepared a large number of siege equipment before the start of the campaign. Ladder carts, siege towers, rushing carts, catapults, jigsaws, nest carts, at least hundreds of large-scale siege machines.
Just these large siege machines are already amazing.
"As expected of a famous general at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he has been unable to defend himself all the time, in order to prepare siege equipment. If nothing else, it is a catapult. If it is not a siege equipment battalion above the fifth level, mass production will not be possible. If someone comes to attack my town with hundreds of these big guys, I'll surrender without saying a word."
Huo An from the Protectorate of the Western Regions couldn't help but sighed when he saw the large-scale siege equipment on display in the Han army barracks.
Many lords around could not help but nod their heads after hearing Huo An's words.
In the early days, none of the lord's towns could block the attack of large siege machines.
This kind of siege equipment is specially designed to conquer fortified cities that are heavily guarded, such as the Guangzong City in front of you.
Chutian's territory, Xia Town, does not yet have a dedicated siege equipment camp, but Chutian can build a simple flying ladder. As for catapults and siege towers, it is not as simple as building a pile of wood together.
Seeing the hundreds of large-scale siege equipment owned by Lu Zhi, Chu Tian couldn't help but wonder whether Xiazhen should also produce such large-scale equipment in the future when he attacked more than a dozen county towns in Langya.
What Lu Zhi wants to attack is a county town with a large number of soldiers and a strong city.
The surrounding Han troops were removing the nearby Yellow Turban camps one by one, attracting the attention of the Yellow Turbans for Lu Zhi to attack Guangzong City. Once there are more troops, Lu Zhi will be transferred to attack Guangzong City again. The camp where Chu Tian was located was transferred by Lu Zhi.
Under the leadership of the Han army Sima Zhang Tie, Chutian and the others were able to enter Lu Zhi's camp and have their own camp.
In addition to the weapons and shields used for war, there are also utensils such as bedding, water bags, bowls and so on.
December temperatures in the north are no joke, and without bedding, soldiers could freeze to death in the middle of the night.
A large number of soldiers crowded into the Han army barracks, often a dozen or so soldiers crowded into a tent.
Chutian tried his best to ensure that one general had a small camp. Only by appeasing the generals under him can their loyalty be guaranteed.
But Zhou Yafu, Liu Sandao, Gongsun Wu and other generals rejected Chu Tian's good intentions and were willing to huddle with the soldiers. The reason is also very simple, the actions of the generals will affect the morale of the soldiers.
The reason why Wu Qi's commander-in-chief was so powerful was largely because Wu Qi and his soldiers shared weal and woe, and the soldiers were willing to sacrifice their lives for it.
Chu Tian understood the reasoning, and lived in a tent with the soldiers. This group of soldiers were flattered, and their morale increased by 5 points.
Because Mulan is a woman, she arranges a tent alone, so the soldiers can understand.
On the fourth day, Chu Tianba camp joined Lu Zhi. He still had no chance to see Lu Zhi and did not participate in the battle, but he still ranked first in points.
Not all lords fight every day ~IndoMTL.com~ and they can't afford to drain their troops.
Each lord depends on the strategic intentions of the Han army commander in order to move in time.
The large-scale siege equipment has been prepared, and Lu Zhi's offensive against Guangzong County is about to begin.
None of the lords had ever experienced such a huge siege battle, with hundreds of thousands of Han troops and rebels attacking hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans.
The hundreds of people that Chutian brought, even if the entire army was wiped out, would not be able to make a splash in this battle.
In the early stage, the lord only needs to follow the commander to fight. In the middle and late stage, the number of soldiers of the lord increases, and he can turn the tide by himself.
In other words, all Han lords are likely to be wiped out in the battle against Guangzong City.
The lords were more or less disturbed.
The number of lords in Lu Zhi's military camp is more than the number of lords in the camp where Chutian was before. There are about several hundred lords, and these lords come from various prefectures and counties.
In addition to the lord, there are tens of thousands of free players.
The number of lords in the Eastern Han region is definitely not that small. Some lords are too late to participate in the first epic battle, and there are many small and medium lords who do not want to take risks to participate in the war.
Because many lords have died in the war.
According to Lu Zhi's movements, tomorrow, the fifth day of the battle, he will attack Guangzong City.
Chutian, who couldn't sleep at night, walked out of the tent and found many lords gathered around the bonfire. They came from all over the world, including the lords from Jiaozhou, Yangzhou and Yizhou in the south, and the lords from Liangzhou, Bingzhou and Youzhou in the north. There were even one or two lords of Yizhou.
Yes, Yizhou is also a sacred and inseparable part of the Eastern Han District.
Hua Mulan, who was also not asleep, stood blankly outside the military tent, noticed Chu Tian coming out, and said, "My lord, it's snowing."
