Chapter 1312 Class door getting an axe
Ju Su thought about it for a long time, and knew that it might make Yuan Shao unhappy, he still advised him not to use Sun Yi's head priest. First, Sun Ce had just released Yuan Tan and exchanged rituals. Even if Yuan Shao did not send Sun Yi's body back, he could not let him have his body and head differently. Second, Sun Yi was still a child, and he was criticized for doing this. Finally, there was another important question: The priest can use human sacrifices, but either a prisoner or a traitor. Sun Yi did not take any of them, and it was not a case of this.
Yuan Shao's face was red and he reluctantly accepted it. However, even if he didn't accept it, it was useless. Guo Tu did not come back overnight. The next morning, Yuan Shao took the initiative to swear an oath to the army according to the regular soldiers, and ordered the troops to go out of the camp. There were many people and stone throwing machines. When everything was ready to stop, it was already noon.
Surrounded by civil and military affairs, Yuan Shao climbed up to the high General Platform and looked at Junyi City from afar. His camp was on the north side of Junyi City, and the General Platform was taller and larger than the walls of Junyi City. He could overlook Junyi City. He should have been very happy, at least before he climbed up to the General Platform.
Standing on the Jiangtai, the first thing I saw was the earth mountain in the northeast corner of the city. Yuan Shao had visited Junyi City many times and knew that standing on the earth mountain, you could see outside the city. At this moment, another high platform was built on the top of the earth mountain, and you could vaguely see the figures on the above. You can imagine that Sun Jian was sitting on the stage and watching him.
Although the platform is high, it is not as good as Tushan. When he thinks that Sun Jian was watching his performance condescendingly, he feels very uncomfortable and has no energy to say it. But it seems that it is not possible to say a few words, and he doesn't know what to do for a moment.
Ju Su, Geng Bao and others stood up. Tens of thousands of soldiers below the stage were holding their breath, waiting to listen to Yuan Shao's instructions. After waiting for a long time, Yuan Shao had no movement at all, and the atmosphere became a little weird. Ju Su was also confused and looked at Yuan Shao secretly, not knowing what he was thinking. Instead, Geng Bao reacted quickly. Seeing that Yuan Shao stared at the city without moving, he followed his gaze and immediately discovered the platform on the earthen mountain. He suddenly realized. He quietly stepped forward and approached Yuan Shao.
"Lord, the north is superior to the south, this is a conclusion. Although the earth mountain is high, it is also a minister. The soldiers and civilians in Junyi City climb the mountain and look north, which is enough to look forward to the wise lord. This is the sign that the lord will definitely defeat Sun Jian. Although the Sun family's father and son are brave, they do not read and do not know that the destiny of heaven lies with the lord, and they can be captured in one go."
Yuan Shao turned his head and looked at Geng Bao, breathing a sigh of relief. Although Ju Su was aware of the general trend, he was not very clever in this regard, much worse than Guo Tu. He was worried that Guo Tu was not around and no one could help him. Fortunately, Geng Bao had the eyesight and could speak.
"Even if you have a destiny, you must not forget the plan." Yuan Shao waved his hand, raised it with the flow, and shouted loudly: "Soldiers..."
The soldiers had been waiting for too long. When they heard Yuan Shao finally speak, they immediately shouted loudly. Tens of thousands of people cheered, with amazing momentum, and a rainbow of morale and a sense of war. Yuan Shao also forgot Sun Jian in the city for a while, his blood was boiling, and the prepared oath gushed out, which was exciting.
——
Sun Jian stood on the high platform and looked at Yuan Shao’s speech in the distance, and couldn’t help laughing.
"These aristocratic families are used to being pompous." Sun Jian pointed at Yuan Shao. "The formation is beautiful, but unfortunately it is not useful. The offensive is not a field battle, and no matter how many people there are, it is useless. Standing here is useless except to make the soldiers exhausted. Unless he is all Qi Liang's wife, he can cry down the city wall."
Zu Mao and others were funny and couldn't help laughing. Most of them were Huai Si Rangers, and they were not unfamiliar with the story of Qi Liang's wife crying down Qi Great Wall. Seeing Sun Jian compare Yuan Shao and others to crying women, he suddenly felt enlightened. A personal guard said loudly: "General, even if Yuan Shao is Qi Liang's wife, you shouldn't come here to cry. You didn't let him come, he wanted to come himself. Besides, you didn't kill the Yuan family, and he shouldn't look for you if he wants to seek revenge."
"This may be possible." Another guard said: "These aristocratic families are accustomed to turning black and white. The Yuan family was obviously the one who ordered people to kill, so they fell on Dong Zhuo's head? Now the general and his son are Yuan Shao's biggest opponents. What's the point of pouring some dirty water?"
"Yes, yes, if Yuan Shao died under the city this time, his wife might come to cry. I heard that his wife was young, less than thirty years old and looked so beautiful, so the general just expressed his compassion and took it away. He gave birth to a few more sons and captured Yuan Shao's son like General Zhenbei."
These people are vulgar people, and Sun Jian is not a well-educated person. When he talks about these dirty things, he is energetic. Hongzi and Qin Song, who are standing by, look at each other and smile bitterly. They have followed Sun Jian for so long, knowing that these people are Sun Jian's confidants, not just as simple as superiors and subordinates. It is not easy to scold them in front of Sun Jian. Fortunately, Yuan Shao didn't say it for too long and quickly ordered an attack. Sun Jian waved his hand, and the guards immediately closed their mouths, put away their smiles, and waited for the start of the battle.
Amid the sound of war drums, Yuan army soldiers first pushed out large trucks, with large shields on the trucks, and crossbowmen hid behind the shields, spearmen and swordsmen standing under the chariot, waiting for battle. Behind them, the power of the baggage battalion shouted horns and pushed stone throwers to the position, arranged in three rows in order, fifty steps away from left to right and thirty steps away from front to back.
"So many?" Sun Jian's face changed slightly and he stood up. If he had to line up according to this density, there would be at least two hundred, which was more than the stone throwing machines in the entire Junyi City. Even if the north of the city is the main attack direction, there might not be so many on the other three sides, and this number would be amazing.
Qin Song and Hongzi were also surprised and looked at each other. Qin Song frowned, picked up his clothes, hurriedly went down the earth mountain, and climbed the city wall. Many soldiers stood on the city wall. Seeing more and more stone throwers outside the city, most of their faces were not good-looking, and no one spoke, and the atmosphere was very depressing. Huang Gai, who was commanding in the front, was shouting loudly with his personal guards, making the soldiers cheer up, but the effect was not great. Seeing Qin Song coming, Huang Gai hurriedly came up.
"General Huang, don't be anxious." Qin Song knew what Huang Gai wanted to say, and smiled casually and took him to find the observer. The stone thrower in the city was under the city wall. The observation hand stood on the city, guiding the direction for the stone thrower, adjusting the range, and confirming the results of the battle. Qin Song found one of them and pointed at the stone thrower outside the city, asking him to estimate the power of these stone throwers.
The observer was very calm. When Qin Song found him, he was yawning against the battlements, and was full of disdain for the nervous soldiers. It was not until Qin Song and Huang Gai walked side by side that he stood up straight. After hearing Qin Song's request, he grinned and laughed.
"Don't worry, these are all good things, not useful."
"Why do you say that?"
"It's very simple. From the size of their stone throwers and the length of the tip rod, it can be judged that the range of these stone throwers is at most about 200 steps. One or two rows in front may be able to cover the city wall, and the last row is the decoration, which should be spare. The stone throwers of this size cannot deal with the city wall at all, so they can only hear it. To play a role, there are only two ways: one is to push forward and force the city to the city. The other is to increase the counterweight and increase the range. If you force it to the city and enter the range of a strong crossbow, the casualties will be very high. If you increase the equipment, the stone throwers will not be able to withstand it, and will fall apart if you can't shoot a few times."
