Chapter 95

The north gate and south gate siege battles were basically the same as the east gate, but there was a difference in the loss of troops and generals.

In this siege, Yuan Shao failed miserably.

...

Yuan Shao's encampment.

As soon as Xu You stepped into the big tent, he heard a huge roar coming from inside the tent.

"Trash! You are all trash! What's the use of you all!"

"You can't even attack this tiny Zhongshan capital, and you all lose at all four gates! A bunch of idiots all of you!"

The roar was accompanied by the loud thump of the tables and chairs.

Xu You was speechless, opened the tent, and entered.

Inside the tent.

Yuan Shao's hair was long and messy, and his bloody eyes looked at the generals who were kneeling on the ground.

Right in front was Zhang Nan who had just suffered a defeat, and another general who had come to report.

Lu Xiang came to report the battle situation from the west gate.

At this time, the generals had finished reporting the situation of the battle. Yuan Shao was furious when he heard the report.

A bunch of trash! The two gates of the capital cannot be attacked, and various other reasons such as being inaccessible, what kind of reason is this?

Yuan Shao looked at the generals who reported to him with sullen and murderous eyes.

Then he took out his longsword and pointed furiously at each general.

"Come here, bring Zhang Nan, Lu Xiang, and the others, and I'll hit each one of them with this fifty times."

Following that, the screams of the generals were heard outside the tent.

..

Xu You stepped forward and said to Yuan Shao, "Milord, the most important thing now is how to launch the next attack."

Yuan Shao looked coldly at Xu You. At this time, he was very dissatisfied with Xu You.

Yuan Shao thought to himself, 'Xu You, I trust you very much, but you really can't help me at all, and I've had enough of listening to all your nonsense when things went wrong recently.'

Plus, before Xu You came, Guo Tu told Yuan Shao all kinds of bad things about Xu You, and Yuan Shao gradually despised Xu You.

Of course, Yuan Shao never thought there was anything wrong with his decision.

Xu You did not understand the reason why Yuan Shao changed his attitude towards him.

He said: "Right now, the first wave of our army's encirclement has failed, which shows that Han Yu really has the means to defend the capital."

"Therefore, we must build siege equipment on a large scale, and let the craftsmen and soldiers come forward to build catapults and rams. With this large-scale equipment, it will be effective in one fell swoop."

Although Yuan Shao was dissatisfied with Xu You, he also agreed to this strategy.

Xu You continued.

"I have observed the ordinary earthen wall fortifications at the east gate and asked the soldiers who participated in the siege. This earth wall was not built long ago, and the ground was soft. As long as we advance steadily and break down these walls gradually, they can definitely be destroyed."

Yuan Shao nodded slowly.

This is also the best way this time; I will trust you again for the time being!

After that, Yuan Shao arranged for the entire department to be processed immediately according to Xu You's suggestion.

…

Zhongshan Capital.

Han Yu had also listened to the report from the gatekeeper. The results at the East gate were the best, and the other gates were all decent, with a total of nearly 8,000 enemy kills.

Han Yu smiled lightly and said to the generals.

"Everyone has worked hard! We have won our first battle of the day, and our morale has also risen. I believe Yuan Shao will definitely lose this battle."

"Naturally, in this battle, Fengxiao is the one who merits the most."

The generals looked at Guo Jia one after another, and the young Guo Jia couldn't help turning his face red.

Then Guo Jia bowed his hand towards Han Yu with a slight expression on his face, looked around the generals, and said.

"Yuan Shao lost the battle this time, and he will definitely summon his generals to discuss countermeasures. The Yuan family has many advisors with high IQs, and he will definitely be able to see through the weaknesses of my forts."

All of the generals looked at Guo Jia with questioning looks.

Weakness? What weakness?

Guo Jia said: "This fort is temporarily erected, as long as they advance gradually, they will be able to level it very quickly, and even if there is heavy rain, without Yuan Shao leveling it, the heavy rain can completely destroy it..."

The generals suddenly realized and they all felt regret. Han Yu also knows this weakness, after all, this defense method he himself told Guo Jia.

Yet, the smile on Han Yu's mouth remained unchanged.

Of course, it could easily be destroyed, what thing really didn't have a weakness?

..

In the following days, Yuan Shao's army was as Guo Jia had expected. The warriors wore shields and pushed the earth wall step by step, and the defense of the earth wall was gradually broken.

And Han Yu, Guo Jia, and Dian Wei are currently on the mountain, behind their army to see what they are busy with.

On the mountain surrounded by soldiers, the clanging sounds of craftsmen can be heard from time to time.

…

Three days later.

Yuan Shao inspects the craftsmen's camp. By this time, Yuan craftsmen had built more than 100 catapults, more than 20 battering rams, and 10 siege towers.

The craftsmen had been working day and night because Yuan Shao had ordered them.

It is time to let Han Yu experience the power of my catapults! Yuan Shao smiled.

...

Zhongshan capital

Han Yu was already standing in the tower of the east gate with Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, and Dian Wei. Looking at the dirt wall that had been cleaned by Yuan Shao, Han Yu felt a little pity.

However, Han Yu did not rely on the small forts to defeat Yuan Shao. This was only a temporary plan.

In order to level the earth wall, Yuan Shao's army was also shot and killed nearly 2,000 people, which is also a kind of victory.

Han Yu touched his arm and took out a pair of binoculars.

..

Yuan Shao, I'm sorry, I'm going to cheat again!

Han Yu used the binoculars to see Yuan Shao's barracks, and his newly built catapults, advancing battering rams, as well as his siege tower, were all visible. Han Yu was not surprised by this.

After the first wave of sieges failed, Yuan Shao once again deployed new large-scale siege equipment, which was a matter of course.

After taking a look, Han Yu knew what to do, and handed the binoculars to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia has been looking at Han Yu's binoculars with enthusiasm. Seeing Han Yu give it away, he hurriedly took it, and then carefully looked at Yuan Shao's barracks with binoculars.

Heavens!

Guo Jia almost threw the telescope, what the hell is this monster?

Suddenly, the distant scenery pulled forward, and siege equipment such as catapults and siege towers could be seen.

Guo Jia could even see Yuan Shao chatting with his advisors and generals, and his bossy demeanor could be seen faintly.

Another Artifact!

Then Guo Jia could not take his hands off the binoculars, looking all over the place.

It was not until Han Yu coughed a few times, and even Zhao Yun withdrew a bit, Guo Jia who was addicted, recovered.

He handed the telescope to Zhao Yun who looked excited.

Guo Jia was lost in thought again.

Guo Jia's worldview gradually collapsed!

His outlook on life and values was shaken!

In the end, he looked at Han Yu with looks of awe and respect!

On the other side, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and the generals next to them all looked into the telescope in turn, and for a while, the screams of the generals continued.

"Ah! So clear! What kind of thing is this?"

"Look, that soldier is picking his nose!"

"Who is that? Could he be more civilized and not just shit anywhere? They have absolutely no quality."

The generals were shocked, and finally, like Guo Jia, looked at Han Yu in awe.

Han Yu sighed in his heart; his face was a little indifferent.

Then he said to the generals.

"Come, let Yuan Benchu experience the power of our newly upgraded catapult."

All eyes were on the dozens of huge catapults in the open space behind the city walls.

Han Yu called it the "Infinite Fire Catapults."
