Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Le Jin was mentally prepared to be trapped in Xiangyang.

But when we were trapped in Xiangyang, we were bombarded by a huge ship. This was really unexpected.

Looking for a gap, the body of the soldier had been restrained, and the giant gun that killed the soldier was carefully removed, and was held by Le Jin in silence.

It's a bit difficult to hold it in your hand and use it as a gun. Such a huge object can be shot from Guan Yu's ship, penetrate four people, and can be nailed into a wall.

Le Jin had one thought in his mind: it was beyond human power.

Looking around, this salvo from the giant ship did not cause many casualties, but it really hit the bottom of morale.

Le Jin always rushes to the front in every battle, and his specialty is always beheading generals, seizing flags, and conquering cities first.

And now...he can't possibly drag a small boat over and row the famous boat to charge towards Guan Yu, right?

For a moment, I felt a little secretly resentful: We are all cavalry officers, why are you going to study the navy?

And what means does Liu Bei have to let Jiangdong build such a huge boat for him?

Sun Hou gave Liu Bei Jiangling, his sister, and a huge boat. Why didn't he also give Jiangdong to Liu Bei?

But complaints are complaints, Xiangyang City still has to be defended.

What made the Xiangyang army breathe a sigh of relief was that after a salvo that day, the giant boat approached Fancheng.

Although Fancheng is a city of brothers, it is better to torture your brothers than torture yourself.

But if Fancheng is defeated, Xiangyang may not be able to defend it for long, so the mood of the Xiangyang defenders is quite strange.

Even some soldiers no longer dared to look at their general.

Le Jin took this into consideration and therefore patrolled the city more frequently.

He is also looking for a fighter, a fighter that can boost morale and unite people.

As for Fancheng, I really can't care about it.

Zhao A didn't understand Le Jin's feelings. He just felt that this was different from the war he imagined.

When I was a child in Zigui City, I heard the old people talking about the war, but at that time it was the Yellow Emperor fighting Chi You. What the old people said was so exciting that Zhao A was fascinated for a while.

But later, after Li Gong escaped, the war he talked about made the grown-up Zhao A feel numb.

Cutting off ears to calculate merit, killing people and falsely accusing thieves, taking captives to farm fields, and slaughtering cities, slaughtering cities, and slaughtering cities.

After entering General Guan's navy by chance, Zhao A felt...

This battle is quite tiring.

During the day, he had to stay in the cabin and pedal, and at night he had to board a boat to transport the terrifyingly large crossbow arrows to and from Dangyang and Fancheng.

I heard from Pao Ze that the huge ship's salvo was more terrifying than General Zhang's roar, but it was a pity that Zhao A had never seen it.

He had only admired the sleeping giant ship from a distance at night.

Huge, quiet, and murderous.

Zhao A liked it a little bit. He did errands on it during the day and slept on it at night. It was like his and his new home.

Zhao A was no longer in a hurry about getting a wife when he returned to Zigui. What he was thinking about now was learning how to maintain the big three bow, because that way he could earn an additional one hundred yuan a month.

Da San Gong is the name given by the soldiers to the crossbow. Because it is three giant bows stacked together, the name is easy to remember and not that difficult to write.

In this tiring life day after day, one day Zhao A was pedaling below and heard someone cheering from above:

The city is broken! The city is broken!

In fact, Zhao A has never seen clearly what Fan Cheng is like now, but that doesn't stop him from cheering together.

Because breaking the city counts as merit, and if you have merit, you will be rewarded.

So that night, when Zhao A and Pao Ze sailed to Dangyang to collect arrows again, they set off from Fancheng with a boat full of people whose hands were tied together.

It was only then that Zhao A could see Fancheng clearly. Its side along the river had almost become a hedgehog. The city wall was broken at several corners, and there were mounds of earth underneath, making it easy to climb up.

The man whose hands were tied together looked depressed and uneasy, and was frightened by the giant ship, but Zhao A didn't care about these.

Because he suddenly remembered that he forgot to ask the officer, who would pay for the boat to send this group of people to Dangyang?

Guan Yu didn't know that Zhao A was disappointed because he couldn't collect the ship's money.

This general with an unusually beautiful beard was standing on Fancheng, admiring the large ship lying quietly on the river.

It is still difficult to attack the city. Guan Yu whispered: Ballistas are powerless against such a strong city, neither the city walls nor the city gates.

Xu Shu pointed at Guan Yu and laughed:

It is unbelievable that such a strong city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack can be conquered in seven days, but General Guan is still not satisfied.

Guan Yu looked very serious:

There are no boats in Xiangfan. The giant boats can get as close as possible and aim at the top of the city wall to shoot. Facing a wall where no one dares to defend the city wall, the descent in seven days is already extremely slow.

Xu Shu did not refute, stretched out his head and looked at it and said:

I just didn't expect that I could nail the city wall with a crossbow and climb up.

Limited by engineering technology, the bottom of this rammed earth city wall can be five or six meters thick, and becomes narrower as it goes up. Therefore, when standing on the top of the city wall, the wall is an extremely steep slope.

At this time, the crossbows were nailed full of arrows, so they could easily climb up to the top of the city by pulling them as a support.

Keeping this idea in mind, Xu Shu turned around and said with a smile:

If we had been able to attack any city in Xiangfan when Yun Chang flooded the Seventh Army, I'm afraid the outcome would have been very different.

Guan Yu didn't make any comments, he sighed and started talking about another topic:

Then Fancheng will be repaired by military advisors?

Xu Shu nodded, this was what was agreed in advance. He watched Guan Yu step down from the tower, then inserted the Yanyue knife aside, leaned over and picked up the body of a Jingzhou soldier and carried it under a Guanzi flag.

Dozens of corpses have been placed here. Soldiers used carts to transport these corpses one by one back to the ship, and eventually they were transported back to Jiangling for burial.

Xu Shu sighed quietly, there were only ten thousand defenders in Fancheng, and they were an organization guarding the city under the leadership of the governor.

At Xu Shu's suggestion, they used the power of the giant ship to shoot at Fancheng indiscriminately for four days before landing. After building mounds for a day, General Guan led the siege.

Taking advantage of the power of the giant ship, more than 200 people were killed and nearly 8,000 captured. It was already an unimaginable victory.

But in the end, the common people died in a foreign land, and those who fought against the Han people were all Han people.

Patting his face, Xu Shu temporarily suppressed these sequelae of the light curtain, and then loudly shouted to organize the soldiers to repair Fan City. Next, they would fight an unprecedented battle here.

Clean Fancheng and wait for Cao Jun.

For Cao Cao, this year's bad news is really one after another.

The first thing he did after moving to Xudu was to simply and roughly suppress the young emperor's inappropriate thoughts with a few heads. Although this move made Xun Yu, who had been handling affairs in Xudu, quite criticized.

But Cao Cao no longer cared about Xun Yu's feelings, because several military reports from Xiangfan reached him.

Fancheng was lost, and Yu Jin's question was sent back with this news: Do you still want to support Fancheng?

After briefly analyzing the news and intelligence sent back, Cao Cao became a little angry and asked you, Le Wenqian, to defend Xiangyang, and did not allow Fancheng's grain, grass and reserve troops to be stationed in Xiangyang!

Although the idea at the time was correct, Fancheng was lost in just seven days. Isn't it your Le Jin's problem or the beheaded governor's problem?

Although they are scolded, at least Xiangyang will definitely be hard to lose. In this case, there is a reason to support Fancheng.

At this time, Cao Cao's feelings became more complicated, with both joy and sorrow.

He was happy and worried about the same thing: Cao Cao's judgment about Guan Yu was right.

So after Xu Du studied the situation, some elite cavalry went north from Xu Du to dispatch troops and supplies to Yecheng.

Except for one army of Xudu's garrison who had to stay behind for city defense, the rest of the garrison also set off and rushed to the battlefield of Fancheng.

Although this resulted in only enough food and grass to last for twenty days, Cao Cao was not very worried.

This is not the first time we have faced a similar situation since we started the army, and we already have enough experience.

Moreover...Cao Cao looked at the secret message in his hand with a little doubt on his face:

Liu Bei conquered all the land belonging to the great surnames in Yizhou, so they are willing to unite and welcome Liu Jiyu back to Yizhou, so they ask me for help?

Xun Yu nodded and said:

Yizhou's surname is despicable, and the people in this alliance are even more despicable.

A single despicable word expresses Xun Yu's views and attitude towards the so-called big surnames in Yizhou.

Cao Cao felt that he was not contemptuous at all, and he handed this secret letter to Xun You without even thinking:

Send it to Hebei, they should know what it means.

This is to ask the surname to donate food. Cao Cao was worried that he couldn't find a reason before, but Liu Bei's move actually helped him.

These wealthy people simply value real estate more than their own sons. How can they give up their lives so easily?

And another secret letter...

Sun Quan did nothing when Guan Yu sent troops, and then he sent more troops to Jiangxia?

Cao Cao pondered the taste and felt that the south was becoming more and more interesting.
