C11 Delusion

Compared to the gloomy and gloomy atmosphere in the army camp outside the city, the officers and soldiers on the city walls looked much better. Even though the soldiers were still exhausted, they were still full of energy and talking and laughing. Especially Huang Zhong, who was standing beside the city wall. That's right! That's right! You sure are useful in making this thing! " As he spoke, Huang Zhong reached out and patted the wooden frame on the city wall, which was not stained with blood at all.

Luo Yang smiled, but in his heart, he felt relieved. A few days ago, they were forced to the point where they couldn't breathe by the yellow-robed soldiers. Who would have thought that the fire from a month ago, although it had burned most of the enemy's elite troops, had instead fiercely stimulated those yellow-robed soldiers. During this month, the yellow-robed soldiers attacked with all their might, and almost broke through the city walls several times. As for the previous fire attacks, Luo Yang did not dare to use them again. Firstly, the opponent was already on his guard and could not play much of a role. Secondly, there was not much oil left in the city, so Luo Yang still had to deal with other special situations.

Fortunately, a few days ago, Luo Yang suddenly remembered the design of the anti-theft windows used by the small senior executives of the later generations, and came up with an idea to create such a large-scale anti-theft window setting. He never thought that this thing would actually work. Not only did it block the attack of the yellow-robed soldiers, but it also did not affect the attacks of the soldiers. It truly killed two birds with one stone!

However, Luo Yang also knew that there was a prerequisite for this wooden frame to have such a huge effect. First of all, this kind of wooden frame could not block arrows. If there were any archers in the Yellow Gown Army, then this kind of wooden frame would be completely useless against arrows. From beginning to end, they had relied on the ladders to climb the city walls to launch a charge. As for any kind of siege equipment such as cars or derricks, it was impossible to create, and this wooden frame was specifically designed to guard against climbing. The most important point was that this kind of wooden frame was very simple and fast. All they needed to do was to find a few logs and tie them with a rope.

Although Nanyang City was safe for the time being, Luo Yang did not let his guard down because of this. He knew that the Yellow Gowned Army would not let this matter rest. They would definitely have other plans to attack the city. However, the atmosphere at the top of the city is quite good and Luo Yang wouldn't be stupid enough to ruin the scenery. He immediately smiled and said to Huang Zhong: "Not bad, right? There's this thing here! I believe those bandits would never be able to reach the top of the city! "

Luo Yang's words were especially loud. His bold words were immediately heard by the soldiers on top of the city walls. All of them loudly echoed his words. Among these soldiers, there were regular soldiers who had served before, and there were even new soldiers who were just ordinary citizens before. However, after experiencing this month of bloody battles, these recruits had also gradually grown into qualified soldiers. Not to mention the other aspects, but their somber aura was no different from those veteran soldiers who had gone through hundreds of battles.

After motivating the soldiers, Huang Zhong and Luo Yang looked at each other and smiled, then slowly walked to the corner of the city wall. After checking that there was no one around, the smile on Huang Zhong's face slowly faded as he said in a deep voice: "Zihui, the morale of the army can finally be maintained for a while longer. What do you think we should do next? "

Although Huang Zhong was usually a bit impulsive, he was still one of the Five Tiger Generals in Shu in the future. How could he be a brainless person? That conversation just now was a scene that had been discussed with Luo Yang. The goal was to raise the morale of the soldiers on the city walls. After a month of hard work and hard work, the soldiers were no longer defeated, but their strength and spirit were greatly reduced. If their morale wasn't boosted, they wouldn't be able to bear it.

Luo Yang sighed and said, "It's hard to say right now, but the bandits outside the city won't give up on capturing Nanyang City just because they were blocked! They will definitely think of other ways to attack Nanyang City. We have to be careful around them! "

Right now, Huang Zhong firmly believed in Luo Yang's capabilities and immediately nodded in agreement. He frowned as he looked at the soldiers on the city walls who were seizing the moment to rest and said: "It's been almost two months! I wonder when the imperial army will arrive? "

Right now, it was only the end of March, and the imperial army should be leaving very soon. However, according to the historical records, the following army led by Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, and Huangpu Song was being attacked head-on by the yellow-robed army due to underestimating the enemy. He had to wait until June before the situation on Nanyang's side turned for the better. But the question was, would Zhang Mancheng allow him to wait until then?

Of course, Luo Yang would not tell these things to Huang Zhong so directly. He even lowered his head to ponder for a moment, and gently said: "In my opinion, the imperial army might not arrive so soon! Even if the imperial army were to move, their first target would be the yellow-robed army that was closer to Luoyang. According to our intelligence reports, the number of yellow-robed soldiers in Ying Chuan is no less than ours, and that place is even closer to Luoyang City. In order to protect Luoyang City, the imperial army will definitely first attack Ying Chuan's yellow-robed army! "

Luo Yang's deduction was reasonable, and Huang Zhong could only sigh deeply. According to Lou Yang's words, the imperial army temporarily could not rely on them. At the moment, they still had to rely on themselves to fend off the hundreds of thousands of bandits outside the city.

"General!" General! Thieves have come again! " Both Luo Yang and Huang Zhong hurriedly turned around and looked out of the city. Sure enough, they saw that the gates of the camp of the Yellow Gown Army outside the city were wide open. Under the lead of several generals of the Yellow Gown Army, they rushed towards Nanyang City like a tide.

Luo Yang and Huang Zhong immediately rushed to the center of the city. Huang Zhong raised the broad saber in his hand and shouted angrily: "All troops, form a formation! "Prepare to meet the enemy!" At the same time, Luo Yang also raised his long spear and shouted loudly in response to Huang Zhong's order.

Fortunately, the scene between Luo Yang and Huang Zhong wasn't done in vain. At this moment, the morale of the defending troops on the city wall was high. Under the shouts of Huang Zhong and Luo Yang, the defending soldiers all stood up straight and rushed to the front line, ready to fight at any time. After more than a month of fighting, the number of soldiers on the city wall had been reduced to more than a thousand. However, the remaining soldiers were all elite soldiers who had experienced a baptism of battle.

This time, the attack of the Yellow Gown Army seemed to be no different from before. As for the wooden frame on top of the city wall, the Yellow Gown Army obviously didn't have any good methods to deal with it. Under the fearless assault of the yellow-robed soldiers, a few wooden frames were damaged. However, Luo Yang was well-prepared, so he immediately had his men carry a backup wooden frame from the back and put it on the wall. At most, dozens of yellow-robed soldiers were put on the city wall, but these soldiers were killed in the blink of an eye by Huang Zhong and Luo Yang.

After wiping away the blood stains on his face, Luo Yang looked out of the city and couldn't help but frown. He didn't know why, but he felt that the attack this time was a little strange. However, he couldn't pinpoint where the problem was. Huang Zhong chopped down a yellow-robed soldier who attempted to climb onto a wooden shelf with a single slash. Then, he turned his head and shouted to Luo Yang who was stunned: "Regret! What are you staring at? "

"Ugh!" Only then did Luo Yang come back to his senses. He could only suppress the nervousness in his heart and concentrate on killing the enemy. Although the help of the wooden frame could greatly reduce the Yellow Gown Army's attack, it did not mean that Luo Yang and the others could easily defend the city. Raising his long spear, he accurately pierced through the gaps between the wooden shelves and struck the yellow-robed soldiers who were climbing onto the shelves. Looking at the resentful gaze of the other party, Luo Yang unhesitatingly pulled out his spear's head, bringing out a few blood arrows, he turned around and stabbed his long spear towards the enemies again.

The battle lasted for more than six hours. Soon, the drumbeats coming from behind the army formation faded away, and the dense crowd of soldiers immediately backed out of the city, leaving behind the corpses that littered the ground.

"Pui!" "Damn it!" Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Huang Zhong looked fiercely at the receding yellow-robed soldiers outside the city, his face filled with unwillingness. Just now, by accident, Huang Zhong had been struck by a yellow-robed soldier's knife, which had directly struck the side of Huang Zhong's helmet. Fortunately, the knife in the yellow-robed soldier's hand was just a rusty machete, and it was swung through the wooden frame. Although it hit the helmet, it didn't cut it. It was just that Huang Zhong's mouth was cut by the impact of the knife. Of course, the end result of that yellow-robed soldier was that he was chopped into two halves by Huang Zhong's broad saber.

On the other hand, Luo Yang was lying prone on the top of the city wall, closely staring at the retreating army formation of the Yellow Gown Army. He didn't look happy at all from repelling the attack of the Yellow Gown Army. Huang Zhong, who was standing beside her, scolded and nagged at her a little. When he noticed that something was wrong with Luo Yang, he quickly went up and asked: "Zihui, what's wrong? Is he injured? "

Luo Yang shook his head and looked at Huang Zhong. After hesitating for a while, he asked: "General Huang! Do you think there's anything wrong with the attack today? "

"Something wrong?" Huang Zhong couldn't help but be surprised, but then he shook his head and said: "Did I really not see that? What? Did you notice something was wrong? "

Luo Yang let out a bitter laugh. If he had seen through it, he wouldn't have been so distressed. However, thinking about it now, he couldn't think of a solution. He could only temporarily put down the uneasiness in his heart. He took a deep breath and said: "It might be my misconception! Alright! General Huang! Let's clean up the battlefield! "
