Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later
Chapter 301 Fantasy Shattered
This battle is a gamble. No matter how brilliant the strategist or how powerful the general is, she dare not say that she is the absolute winner. She can only make a bet based on her judgment of the current situation and her understanding of the opponent and give it her all. The rest is left to luck!
She never looked down on anyone of this era, and she considered the worst possible outcome for every plan she made. Today was no different. No matter what method Qu Yi used to attack the city, the worst possible outcome would be that his soldiers would only reach a certain top of the city wall, which would not affect the overall situation.
Outside the east city gate, Qu Yi saw that all the crossbow carts on the south city wall had indeed been moved over, and he was secretly happy. The young doctor was smart, but she was a woman after all!
In Qu Yi's opinion, women are all timid and cowardly. Women with no ability and no family background are submissive and humble in front of men. Women with ability and good family background have to be cautious and tread on thin ice in front of men. The young doctor is a little braver than ordinary women, but her pretended calmness at the riverside yesterday and her hasty action of mobilizing the crossbow cart today all show that she is also timid.
As the sun rose, the attack outside the east city gate began. After being bombarded by crossbows, Qu Yi's vanguard finally reached the moat.
The first things to be thrown into the river were the rafts. The first row were tied with ropes to wooden stakes on the shore. Then the soldiers carried the rafts and stepped on them to throw the second row forward. They connected the two rows with ropes. If there were not enough rafts, they threw tents into the river. They pushed forward row by row. Was Qu Yi's purpose to cover this small section of the river with rafts?
Under the barrage of bows and crossbows from the city walls, the soldiers laying the rafts suffered heavy casualties. Some were nailed to the rafts, and more were shot and fell into the river. The soldiers' screams continued, and in a short while the emerald green moat was dyed blood red.
After paying a huge price in casualties, a raft road more than ten feet wide was finally paved on the river surface. Just as Qu Yi's sword and shield soldiers and archers were preparing to advance, they saw the east gate opened and the drawbridge lowered. The Bingzhou cavalry that Qu Yi had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared.
The terrain outside the moat was flat and open. Except for the vanguard who laid the rafts, the other soldiers of Qu Yi were arranged in square formations, with the infantry in the middle and 3,000 cavalry on both wings. Seeing that the enemy's infantry formation was neat, Xu Chu did not dare to charge and went around the left to kill the cavalry. Qu Yi's two columns of cavalry followed suit, with the left wing facing the enemy head-on and the right wing going around the infantry formation to provide support.
After the Bingzhou cavalry came out, the infantry formation in the middle also began to move towards the city. More and more soldiers rushed to the city, and the archers finally came into range and fired at the archers on the city wall.
"Cut the raft ropes, Ah Heng, lead your men across the river from the south and attack West City and South City!"
As Qu Yi's order was issued, the ropes tied to the shore were cut, and the raft floated downstream with the current. At the same time, the 10,000 soldiers lined up in the southeast direction also rushed quickly to the river bank.
Given the huge disparity in strength between the enemy and us and the lack of defenders in the city, attacking only one gate would be a waste of our own forces while giving the enemy the advantage of concentrated defense. Therefore, Qu Yi's goal was to attack on three fronts: the main attack on the East City and the auxiliary attacks on the West and South City, so as to overwhelm the defenders in the city.
Originally, Qu Yi expected that the east gate would be breached first, but after seeing that Zhang Mo was so frightened that she moved all the crossbow carts from the south city, he thought that the south gate would be opened when Qu Heng and others crossed the river.
As the sun rose higher and higher, the attack outside the east city gate became more and more fierce. Qu Heng's troops crossed the Fen River one after another. In the center of the army, Qu Yi looked at the top of the city wall from afar, and a smile of determination appeared on his handsome face.
At the beginning, that guy Lu Bu took advantage of the situation and not only demanded 500,000 grains and Henei County from his lord, but also took away his young doctor. Today, he not only wants to take Jinyang and take back the young doctor, but also wants to take over the entire Taiyuan County, and then go south to Shangdang and occupy the entire Bingzhou.
I wonder what Lu Bu’s expression would be when I appear in front of him with the young doctor in my arms?
Just as Qu Yi was talking about how he was going to humiliate Lu Bu, he heard a sudden noise and clamor coming from the rear army position. He looked back and saw that the neat formation behind him was becoming loose bit by bit, and a soldier who was reporting the news was rushing towards this side for his life.
"General! It's bad! Lu Bu is coming! Lu Bu is back!"
The soldier shouted at the top of his lungs from a distance. Qu Yi vaguely heard the name Lu Bu, and his face changed immediately. Before the soldier ran to him, he had already seen a cavalry group coming from behind, whistling in the smoke and dust. Who else could it be but Lu Bu, with that arrogant red at the head?
The Red Hare was like a ball of flame, and the Fang Tian Hua Ji in Lu Bu's hand was like a man-eating beast. The moment it rushed into the crowd, the soldiers were directly knocked away, and the broken limbs and body parts flew in the air. The blood mist that filled the air even covered the flying dust.
The fantasy shattered in his mind, and Qu Yi was filled with fear. After a moment, he suddenly came to his senses and turned to look at the top of the city wall again. Although the attack from the East City was fierce, it was still difficult to climb to the top of the city wall under the enemy's rain of arrows.
Although Qu Yi was arrogant, it is undeniable that he was an extremely outstanding general. When he was attacked by Lu Bu's army in the rear, he did not panic, but responded immediately. He left a square team to resist Lu Bu's cavalry, and he took the rest of the troops to cross the river. As long as they crossed to the west bank of the Fen River, they would first capture the South Gate before Lu Bu came to kill them, and then quickly control Jinyang City and block all the city gates. Lu Bu's cavalry would have no way to deal with them.
Guo Yi reacted quickly and was right not to take any chances and confront Lu Bu head-on. If someone else had defended the city, he might have succeeded. However, his opponent was Zhang Mo. When he led his troops to the river bank, he saw a cavalry on the opposite bank, slaughtering the soldiers attacking the south city.
It is understandable that Lu Bu took time out to come back from Shangdang to rescue Qu Yi, but where did this cavalry, which was no less powerful than the Feixiong Army, come from?
Qu Yi seemed to understand something, and his face, which had been calm just now, changed completely. First it turned blue, then red, just like the water in the moat!
Lu Bu was worried about his wife, so he used all his might today without reservation. Every time he swung his halberd, the soldiers blocking his way were either torn into pieces or knocked away. The armored Red Hare was as arrogant as its master, and was completely unafraid of the swords and guns in front of it. It carried Lu Bu and charged forward, and in an instant, it passed through the rearmost army formation.
"Hua Xiong, take 500 men to help Xu Chu!" Lu Bu took a quick look to the left in his busy schedule. Xu Chu's troops were still fighting with Qu Yi's cavalry. Due to the difference in troop strength, although they had not shown signs of defeat, it would not be easy to win.
"Okay!" Hua Xiong responded and led the team to turn left and join the cavalry battle.
Lu Bu looked towards the east gate again. There were still many soldiers attacking the city there, while Qu Yi's large army had turned to the downstream where the moat and Fen River met, obviously trying to cross the river.
Lu Bu left 500 men to plunder the east gate, and he took 1,000 cavalrymen to hunt down Qu Yi.
