Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

Early noon!

Inside and outside Qingzhou City, the war drums of the Wu and Jin armies sounded together.

I don't know what material the war drum is made of, but when it is struck not only can the sound be heard from far away, but even better, every beat seems to hit people's hearts, making them feel depressed and excited at the same time.

[System prompts, Jin Bing's siege progress has been completed 3%, please respond as soon as possible, mission failure penalty: obliterate! ]

[Repeat! The Jin soldiers' siege progress has already...]

The reminder sounds in my mind kept ringing.

Lu You was riding on the galloping black panther and looking back, only to see that the black-armored Jin soldiers were rushing up the city wall madly one after another.

For some reason, Lu You suddenly felt that the originally majestic Qingzhou City was now like a huge cake.

And those Jin soldiers came out like a spring, devouring the delicious food in front of them bit by bit.

"When will the Yanzhou army arrive?"

Lu You shouted loudly to Wu Quanwen who was leading the way in front.

The system task she triggered was not to completely protect the Qingzhou city from destruction, but to hold out until the Yanzhou army entered the city.

Originally, Lu You had no idea about the location of the Yanzhou Army, but after seeing He Hui and Chen He, the two Hidden Dragon Guards who were monitoring and protecting him, Lu You was certain that Wu Quanwen must have his own intelligence network.

This is the world of his Wu family. How could he be like me and have no idea at all?

"Not yet!"

While running wildly, Wu Quanwen casually cut a Jin soldier in half.

"After you dismantle the catapult, find a way to get out. If you can escape, escape first. I won't be able to take care of you from now on!"

Hearing Wu Quanwen's words, Lu You's heart sank.

Wu Quanwen is not like Xu Chu and his gang who have a chivalrous spirit, nor is he a defensive general like Wen Chengjie who would use himself as a pawn.

He is a prince who has been in high position in the government for a long time and has learned the ways of being an emperor.

For such a person, Lu You couldn't guess what his next decision would be.

In fact, even his action of going out of the city to destroy the catapult was beyond Lu You's expectations.

In Lu You's opinion, although the gains and losses of this city are important, for a prince like Wu Quanwen, it is not worth risking his life.

Pose on the city wall to create some publicity for being the first to lead the charge. If you really can't stand it, the best thing to do is to rely on your own strong power to leave.

It was not a wise move for him to go deep into the enemy camp and fight to the death like he did.

This third prince is really hard to understand!

"Ready!"

The catapult array was right in front of him. Wu Quanwen gave a low shout and suddenly increased his speed.

"Stop him!"

Next to the catapult, a loud shout was heard, and several figures rushed towards Wu Quanwen.

This Jin soldier is really careful!

The catapult formation was already among the Jin soldiers, but they actually sent so many warriors to guard it. This was a bit too cautious.

It's a pity that these warriors are all in the inner strength realm. Not to mention whether they can defeat Wu Quanwen, just in terms of speed, they are already far behind.

Click...

Wu Quanwen ignored the interception of several Jin soldiers and leaped forward to cut the lever of a huge catapult in half with one sword.

That thing is covered with copper!

On the back of the black panther, Lu You stared at Wu Quanwen's knife and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Back then in Qingshi Town, I chopped at the hinge of the East City Gate, which was thinner than this one. I don't know how many times I chopped it before it was barely broken. The city gate fell down by itself because it was unbalanced.

But Wu Quanwen's knife just now just cut through, just like cutting tofu!

Is this the state of transformation?

Click...

The second crisp sound was heard.

When Lu You rode the leopard into the catapult formation, the lever of the second catapult broke.

There are eight catapults in total, six of which are about 50 feet high, and the two in the middle are as high as 70 to 80 feet.

Because of their huge size, even though these catapults were lined up in a row, the distance between each one was still very far.

Moreover, this type of catapult uses the most primitive method of lever plus human drag to throw objects.

The people responsible for pulling the catapults were called pullers, and most of them were wounded soldiers who were slightly injured but not suitable for fighting in the city.

A small catapult requires three to four hundred people to pull it.

As for the team behind the two large catapults in the middle, there were more than a thousand people.

These people are both hand pullers and guards.

Seeing Wu Quanwen cutting off two catapults, these pullers quickly organized themselves and began to block Wu Quanwen's way with bows and arrows.

"Go charge!"

As they rushed here, the powerful effect of the Dali Pill had restored the flesh and blood on Lu You's feet. Lu You jumped off the Black Panther and shouted loudly.

A dozen black panthers dispersed instantly after receiving the order, bypassed several Jin soldiers who were trying to intercept them, and went straight to the handle behind the catapult.

Lu You and his companions immediately engaged in battle with those Jin soldiers.

[System prompts, Jin Bing's siege progress has been completed 4%, please respond as soon as possible, mission failure penalty: obliterate! ]

Lu You held the Momei in his hand and faced the mace thrown at him from the opposite side.

But just as the two weapons collided and the Jin warrior wanted to fight with Lu You with all his strength, the Mo Mei in Lu You's hand disappeared out of thin air, and she herself lowered her body and flashed past the side of the mace.

"Where to go..."

Mace turned around and roared, only to see a brick hit him directly in the face.

Lu You stomped his feet hard and rushed into the warrior's arms like a wild cat. He raised his hand and a short blade appeared out of thin air in his hand, and he cut the man's throat with it.

Blood mist sprayed, and Lu You turned and left without any stopping.

[System prompts, Jin Bing's siege progress has been completed 5%, please respond as soon as possible, mission failure penalty: obliterate! ]

Hearing the siege progress increasing in his mind, Lu You's face darkened.

No!

When the Jin soldiers attack the city walls in large numbers, the catapults will lose their effectiveness. Even if they are destroyed now, it will be of no use.

After all, this thing is thrown by hundreds of people. Any slight deviation will cause the target to be offset. No matter how ruthless the Jin soldiers are, they can't ignore the lives of their own people.

How does the system judge the progress of the siege?

What was the casualty ratio of the defenders?

Or the number of Jin soldiers on the city wall?

[System prompts, Jin Bing's siege progress has been completed 7%, please respond as soon as possible, mission failure penalty: obliterate! ]

The system prompt sounded again. While Lu You continued to dodge the attacks of the Jin soldiers, he was thinking about ways to delay time.

It was only early noon, and there were still about three hours until noon.

But according to the progress so far, Qingzhou City will be captured in half an hour at most!

By then, all traces of myself will be completely wiped out.

this world……

No one will remember my existence anymore!

Lu You waved the Mo Mei in his hand, forced the Jin warriors to retreat, and then turned around and ran away.

The catapult is not the point. What she wants now is to slow down the siege progress of the entire Jin army and buy time for the arrival of the Yanzhou army.

Anyway, if the mission fails, I will definitely die.

Then just let go and give him a good beating!
