Liu Ke saw that the giant catapult had no effect, so he had to suspend the order and order the siege army to move forward and start the next plan.
The army, led by Dian Wei, Zhang Liao, Lu Bu and other generals, quickly approached Wancheng with the cover of catapults.
It didn¡¯t take long for the army to arrive at the bottom of the city and begin to climb up the city wall.
But in this case, in order to avoid accidentally injuring friendly forces, the giant catapult has also stopped attacking.
So, under Sun Ce's order, the defenders who had been hiding in various corners quickly gathered from all directions and came to the city wall.
Therefore, the siege army had just put the ladder on the city wall, but before anyone could get on it, they were overthrown by the defenders at the top of the city.
Some soldiers even fell down because they climbed too high.
And when Zhou Yu was sure that the opponent's giant catapult, a deadly weapon, was no longer effective, he began to use various means to defend the city.
Several large pots were set up on the top of the city. Under the burning flames, the oil in the pots had begun to boil.
Then the defenders poured down the pot full of hot oil without hesitation.
??Anything that touches it will instantly burst open and the flesh and blood will melt. At worst, large pieces of skin and flesh will fall off, and at worst, you will die on the spot.
Not only that, after the burning oil poured down, the defenders immediately pulled out a few burning logs from under the pot and threw them down.
For a moment, the city suddenly turned into a sea of ??fire, and the siege army was immediately submerged in it.
Compared with these, the opponent has a more despicable move, which is golden juice.
When it was boiled in the pot, the steaming golden juice emitted such a stench that even the defenders had to cover their mouths and noses with towels.
And when it comes into contact with soldiers under the city, it is a trivial matter to burn off a layer of skin. The most important thing is that the germs inside can quickly invade the human body.
If it can be as short as one day or as long as three to five days, the body will be infected with germs and completely lose its combat effectiveness.
In addition, there were regular attacks by rolling stones, thunderwood, bows and arrows, etc., and the city was in chaos.
Seeing such a scene and hearing the screams of the soldiers, Liu Ke was extremely anxious.
He urgently called off the attack and withdrew the army from the city.
Back in the tent, Liu Ke said angrily: "I didn't expect that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu would make Wancheng so impregnable.
If the situation is like this, when can Wancheng be conquered? "
Liu Ke Longyan was furious, and all the soldiers under his command naturally did not dare to express their anger. They all held their breath and concentrated on being cautious so as not to offend Long Wei.
However, Liu Ke has good control over his temper.
After a brief moment of venting, he instantly returned to his previous peaceful state.
He said softly: "Haha, it's good to have such an opponent. If there is no difficulty, wouldn't I be lonely when I unify the world?
Even though I fail in one blow, I will never give up. This time, Sun Ce cannot escape from my grasp! "
Hearing this, all the ministers immediately shouted in unison: "Your Majesty's power of heaven has come to this world, and the thieves will not be able to hold on for long. We are willing to die for you!"
Liu Ke couldn't help but said happily when he heard everyone expressing their stance in unison: "Okay! Then I ask all the ministers to work with me to wipe out all evil and revive the country!"
As Liu Ke spoke, his voice continued to rise. When the last syllable fell, a deafening thunder suddenly came from outside the tent.
People in the world often say that the power of God is unpredictable, but Liu Ke is now regarded as the son of God. When Long Yan was furious, he actually caused a thunderous image to appear in the sky.
Scenes like this reinforce Liu Ke¡¯s belief in his destiny.
Therefore, everyone involuntarily fell to the ground and shouted long live the mountain in unison.
Liu Ke¡¯s gaze has shifted away from the ministers and extended outward through the tent door.
When he saw the dark cloud-covered sky in the distance, he unconsciously said: "The sky has changed!"
Immediately afterwards, the heavy rain finally poured down, and with the continuous roar of thunder, it spread over the entire land.
This heavy rain came very quickly, and the amount of rain was very heavy. In a short time, it formed a small stream in the low-lying area and flowed into the distance.
The soldiers who were repairing outside also hurried back to their tents to hide from the rain. They ran so slowly that they turned into drowned rats in the blink of an eye.
Under such heavy rain, it is unrealistic to attack again.
Therefore, Liu Ke just announced the temporary repairs and planned a strategy to break the city. It would not be too late to attack after the rain stopped.
Therefore, the originally fierce battle was postponed due to the impact of heavy rain.
Standing on the cityIn the Qiao Tower, Sun Ce, accompanied by his ministers, looked at the heavy rain in front of him, with many thoughts in his heart.
It is the rainy season in the south now, so such heavy rain is not unexpected.
But this way, the originally planned reinforcements of Sun Quan may also be delayed due to its influence.
However, every advantage has its disadvantages. Although Sun Quan was delayed, under this environment, Liu Ke's attack had no choice but to be interrupted.
This not only gave Sun Quan a few more days to march, but also allowed the city to be renovated to make up for the lack of previous preparations.
So overall, it should be a good thing for Sun Ce.
Therefore, I listened to the soldiers behind me praising that the rain came in time and blocked the arrogant Liu Ke.
As time goes by, the opponent will definitely lose morale and completely lose their will to fight.
Coupled with the fact that the weather in the south is already humid, Nanyang has been experiencing successive wars recently, resulting in numerous casualties.
Therefore, everyone judged that after the heavy rain, a major epidemic would definitely break out.
Being locked up in the city by yourself seems to be like a protective net, but Liu Ke does not have such conditions, and he may be defeated thousands of miles away.
Therefore, as the heavy rain continued to pour down, Sun Ce's originally frowning brow gradually relaxed, and finally even showed a smile.
He turned to Zhou Yu and said, "Gong Jin, what do you think about this rainstorm?"
Zhou Yu quickly bowed and answered, and what he said was not much different from what Sun Ce and the other generals thought.
However, Zhou Yu, who is unparalleled in resourcefulness, is not as optimistic as Sun Ce. He is always worried about another thing in his heart.
If it is discovered and used by the enemy, the solid Wancheng will cease to exist!
It¡¯s just that saying this in front of everyone would hurt morale, so Zhou Yu had no choice but to hold it back at the critical moment.
I am going to explain everything to Sun Ce in private.
The heavy rain continues to fall, and as of today, it has lasted for three full days.
Liu Ke had nothing to do, so he could only sit in the tent, sip tea and listen to the rain.
However, today Zhang Liao brought some bad news.
Due to the continuous heavy rains, the water level in the adjacent Yanshui River continues to rise. If it continues like this, there may be a danger of the embankment bursting.
If a flood overflows the embankment, Liu Ke¡¯s army stationed on the shore of Feishui will suffer the most.
The best response is to immediately strengthen the embankment to prevent danger.
But now that the two armies are facing each other, how can they have the opportunity to do this?
Therefore, Liu Ke could only order the army to move westward in the rain. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
