Following Zhang Bao's roar, the Yellow Turban Army was divided into four groups, attacking the city from four directions: southeast, northwest, respectively.

Not long after, Guangzong City was surrounded. Surrounding the city on all sides, the Yellow Turban Army is still endless!

The four walls of Guangzong City were erected with ladders, and the Yellow Turban soldiers had already advanced to the bottom of the city, scrambling to climb up.

Liu Zhang saw everything under the city, but he didn't look anxious.

The Yellow Turban Army seems to have many soldiers and is fierce, but in fact they can only show off their abilities under the city. They only have the ladder as a means of siege.

There are many ladders, but the design is very simple. At first glance, it was the product of Zhang Bao's urging.

If it was an ordinary city, Liu Zhang would not have been so relaxed. This Guangzong city was Zhang Jiao's base camp before, and it was a fortress used to resist Lu Zhi's attack.

Guangzong City was built by Zhang Jiao like an iron barrel, and there were many defensive equipment in the city.

Zhang Bao fled to Xiaquyang in a hurry, not only giving everything to Liu Zhang, but also setting up a major obstacle for his own offensive path!

The Yellow Turban Army seemed fierce and unusual, but in fact they could only rely on ladders to attack the city. Even if there are hundreds of thousands of troops, Liu Zhang is still fearless.

The Yellow Turban Army attacked from all sides, and the roar of the Yellow Turban Army was loud, and the roar of the Yellow Turban Army was heard throughout Guangzong City.

All this did not frighten the officers and soldiers, Liu Zhang had already made arrangements. The city defense school lieutenants began to organize counterattacks in an orderly manner.

"Shoot the arrows, don't let these rebels attack!"

"Push down the ladder!"

"Is the golden sauce ready? Bring it here!"

"Pour hot oil and scald these thieves to death!"

"Archers, target the rebels below. Let it go!"

Zhang Bao didn't understand the art of war, and ordered the whole army to press on, and he didn't know how to take turns to attack the city.

As a result, there were too many Yellow Turban soldiers under the city, and it was impossible to climb up the ladder effectively.

There are tens of thousands of people piled up under the city, and no matter how many ladders are crowded, most people can only surround the ladders, which gives the officers and soldiers better conditions to attack.

"Ah! I've been hit by an arrow! Save me!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

"It stinks! Ah, it's so hot!"

"Raise your shield! Raise your shield!"

The officers and soldiers only need to close their eyes and throw down, whether it is shooting arrows, pouring oil, or pouring golden juice.

As long as it falls out of the city wall, the Yellow Turban Army will definitely be injured, and a large number of them will be seriously injured!

The yellow turban soldier who was hit by the arrow fell to the ground and howled, and was ruthlessly trampled to death by the surrounding yellow turban soldiers.

Pieces of yellow turban soldiers who were scalded by hot oil and gold juice fled frantically in pain, and slashed wildly with knives.

For a while, the Yellow Turban Army was in chaos, and before a single person attacked the tower, countless casualties had already been caused.

All of this was seen by Zhang Bao, but it didn't make him feel any trouble.

"Second brother! Going on like this is not an option!"

Zhang Liang couldn't stand it anymore, Zhang Bao was still indifferent to the situation now!

Zhang Bao turned his head to look at him, and said with a serious face:

"Why panic! Our army is 150,000, not afraid of casualties!"

"How many defense equipment does Liu Zhang have?"

Zhang Liang looked at Zhang Bao incredulously, feeling horrified in his heart.

How can there be such a death?

"But….."

"Okay, there's nothing to worry about! There's no such thing as an immortal in a war!"

Zhang Bao ignored Zhang Liang and continued to order the soldiers to press forward.

As Zhang Bao expected, with the passage of time, the defense equipment on the city gradually ran out, and the Yellow Turban Army could occasionally climb the tower to meet with the defenders.

It's just that they have been attacking for more than three hours now, and the morale of the Yellow Turban soldiers is very low, without the momentum they had at the beginning.

The Yellow Turban Army who climbed the city wall could not stand at all, and was strangled by officers and soldiers not long after.

The corpses of the Yellow Turban soldiers have been piled up under the city, and these corpses irritate every Yellow Turban soldier.

People with fear in their hearts will be timid in their actions, and their weak combat effectiveness is even more rare.

At this moment, Zhang Bao lost his composure just now, and was frowning with doubts on his face.

Why are the officers and soldiers unable to climb the city wall after exhausting their defense equipment, but the offensive is getting weaker and weaker!

All this is different from what he expected!

Zhang Bao's face was gloomy, he already had some regrets, and he couldn't admit his mistake to Zhang Liang because of face.

"Second brother!"

Zhang Liang saw Zhang Bao's embarrassment and spoke up.

"Second brother, it's not an option to go on like this. It has been three hours since the attack, and the soldiers are very tired!"

"Our army has come from a long distance and has never rested. Now the physical strength of the soldiers has reached the limit! There is no point in attacking any further!"

Zhang Bao looked ashamed, he knew that he would not be talking big just now.

"Hey, what should I do?"

"Let's withdraw the troops first! Our army still needs to set up camp! Besides, we only have five days' food, and we urgently need to send soldiers to clear the food road."

"Okay! Mingjin retreats!"

Zhang Baoshun went down the donkey. He was reckless, but he was not a fool. What Zhang Liang said was very clear in his heart.

clang clang clang clang...

With the sound of gold ringing from the battlefield, the yellow scarf soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief and retreated like a tide.

Commander's Mansion, Chamber of Commerce

Liu Zhang sat at the head seat, looked at the generals under his command, and asked, "Yang Canjun, how is the battle going today?"

Sitting down, one person straightened up and reported to Liu Zhang.

"General Liu, today our army has slightly injured a hundred people, and there are no serious injuries or battle deaths. The Yellow Turban Army has more than 6,000 casualties."

"Ok."

Liu Zhang waved to the army, motioning him to sit down, and then looked at the captain of Chengfang.

"Today the Yellow Turbans attacked the city forcibly without taking a break. Our army is fully prepared to wait for work at leisure. It actually injured more than a hundred people!"

Dongmen Captain Han Qi got up and said:

"General, I didn't expect the yellow scarf bandits to be so crazy, they would forcefully attack the city without setting up camp! The last general really didn't expect Zhang Bao to attack the city for so long! Therefore, the equipment for defending the city is slightly insufficient!"

Liu Zhang pondered for a while, but did not blame Han Qi.

"Tomorrow, prepare more equipment for defending the city, and reduce the casualties of our soldiers!"

Han Qi looked embarrassed, and carefully reminded Liu Zhang.

"Lord Zhonglang, if you use the city defense materials without restraint, even if there are more in Guangzong City, I'm afraid it won't last long!"

Liu Zhang smiled and said confidently:

"You don't have to care about these things! Zhang Bao's two thieves won't be rampant for long!"

Han Qi and the others saw that Liu Zhang had said so, so they didn't have to worry too much.

"Since the general is so sure, tomorrow we will not let the yellow scarf climb up the city wall!"

Liu Zhang nodded in relief, this kind of obedience made him very comfortable to command.

"Okay! Generals, rest early, tomorrow will be a fierce battle!"

"promise!"

At Yinshi on the second day, the Yellow Turban Army blew the horn to attack, and the four gates also attacked at the same time.

However, the officers and soldiers have long been prepared and have been waiting for the arrival of the Yellow Turban Army.

Today's Yellow Turban Army's offensive is more ferocious than yesterday's, but it's a pity that Liu Zhang has already issued an order, so there is no need to save supplies.

It was another life-for-material struggle. The Yellow Turban Army attacked for six hours in a row, from dawn to dusk!

The defending school lieutenant moved the defending supplies from the city several times, and poured indiscriminate amounts of madness on the yellow scarf soldiers.

The Yellow Turban Army climbed up the city wall when the officers and soldiers ran out of defensive equipment, but they couldn't stand still!

When the officers and soldiers replenished their equipment, the Yellow Turban Army's offensive stopped immediately.

As a result, it is conceivable that the Yellow Turban Army still failed to advance an inch, and the official army still exchanged a very small price for a large number of Yellow Turban Army casualties.

Zhang Bao ended the day's siege with heavy casualties.

The siege battle lasted for four days, and Zhang Bao, who had an army of more than 100,000 in his hand, couldn't hold it anymore!
