Chapter 832 Huge Pressure

"shoot!"

When the Blackwater Kingdom's army came into range, Pei Yu gave the order to attack without hesitation.

Whoosh!

Arrows flew towards the enemy troops outside the pass with a sharp whistling sound. Suddenly, the soldiers of the Blackwater Kingdom fell to the ground one by one. Because there were too many enemy troops outside the city, the archers at the top of the city , there is no need to aim at all, just shoot casually and you can hit the target.

After one round of arrows, the second round of arrows flew over quickly. The dense arrows were like locusts, flying towards the enemy outside the city.

More Blackwater soldiers fell to the ground.

However, none of these were able to stop the soldiers of the Blackwater Kingdom from advancing, and their steps did not even pause.

Behind the Blackwater Kingdom's army, Peng Chuan sat on horseback and looked at the battlefield from a distance. Although many soldiers fell to the ground in just a few breaths, Peng Chuan's expression did not change at all, and there was even a faint expression on his face. A smile full of confidence.

He made a decision today at Shanling Pass!

This was not the first time Pengchuan had attacked Shanling Pass. However, in the past, he had not led many troops, and the people above rarely asked him to break through Shanling Pass. Most of them only harassed or intimidated him.

But today is different. From the time the army went out, he had received only one order, to break through Shanling Pass, and to break through Shanling Pass at all costs.

With an army of 400,000 in hand, a special force in the army, and various siege equipment well prepared, Peng Chuan was very confident. It was precisely because of this confidence that Peng Chuan did not choose to fight slowly. Instead, he chose to attack in one go, hoping to break Shanling Pass today.

"Stop those siege equipment from moving forward!" said Pei Yu at the top of the city.

There are many enemies outside, but as long as they can't enter the city, they can't lose Shanling Pass.

The archers at the top of the city were ordered to attack the soldiers surrounding the siege equipment. Arrows flew away one after another with great momentum.

However, the Blackwater Kingdom's army was clearly prepared for this. There were many shield soldiers surrounding the siege equipment. When arrows flew from the top of the city, the shield soldiers raised their shields one after another and attacked them. The soldiers surrounding the siege engines were protected.

Dang Dang Dang!

One arrow after another hit the shield, making a clanging sound. However, apart from these sounds, it had no other effect. The soldiers of the Blackwater Kingdom who were protected by the shield suffered no casualties and attacked the city. Equipment is still advancing.

Seeing this scene, Pei Yu frowned deeply, while the smile on Peng Chuan's face in the distance became even brighter.

As long as these siege equipment approaches the walls of Shanling Pass, they will definitely be able to destroy those walls. As long as the walls are destroyed, the defenders and people in the pass will be like turtles in the urn, and no one can escape.

Pei Yu also understands this. Their numbers are already at a disadvantage. If they lose the advantage of the city wall, then they will not be at a disadvantage, but in a desperate situation.

Therefore, even if the arrows had little effect, he had to order the archers to continue attacking the soldiers around the siege equipment.

However, it was still unable to stop the approach of the siege equipment.

Seeing the siege equipment getting closer and closer to the city wall, Pei Yu's face turned cold, he took the big knife from the hands of the soldiers nearby and said loudly: "Follow me!"

"General Pei, where are you going?" At this time, Mu Han next to Pei Yu asked.

"Go out of the city and attack the enemy troops around the siege equipment. Don't let them get close to the city wall." Pei Yu said.

His soldiers were not surprised at all by Pei Yu's words. In the past, Pei Yu was a general who liked to take the lead in charging into battle. He always rushed to the front and rushed to the most dangerous places. Now he was aware of the threat of those siege equipment. It’s not surprising that he would think of leading his army out of the city to stop them.

"General Pei, please don't be impulsive. You are now the chief general in this pass, not a deputy general, let alone a captain. What you have to do is to command the entire army, not to lead the charge." Mu Han dissuaded.

Pei Yu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that his current identity had changed, and he was indeed not suitable to lead a small team to carry out such an operation, especially when the defenders in the city were not fully united. If there is an accident outside the city, it doesn't matter if he dies, but there will be chaos inside the city, and it is very likely that Shanling Pass cannot be defended.

Thinking of this, Pei Yu gave up the idea of ​​leaving the city in person, but turned to look at a deputy general he promoted and said: "When you lead your team out of the city, you must destroy the opponent's siege equipment."

"Yes!" the deputy general responded without hesitation.

"Wait!" Mu Han stopped him again: "The enemy must also know the importance of engineering equipment, and they will definitely pay attention to protecting it. If they rush out like this, the casualties will be huge."

"There's nothing we can do about it, the siege equipment must be destroyed!" Pei Yu said.

The deputy general also said loudly: "Don't worry, sir, even if I die outside the city, I will destroy those siege equipment!"

Pei Yu nodded solemnly. Of course he knew the danger of this action. The enemy was not a fool. He would definitely protect the siege equipment with all his strength. As long as the deputy general went out, no matter whether he could destroy the siege equipment or not, he would be in danger. And The people who could be promoted to deputy generals by him were all people he had known for many years and trusted deeply. Pei Yu was naturally very heavy in his heart when he allowed his best friend to die like this.

"Sir, don't rush to send the team out of the city. You can try the weapons designed by the commander first." Mu Han said.

"Zhuge Liannu?" Pei Yu subconsciously looked at the large crossbows placed at the top of the city.

"Yes." Mu Han said: "Although I don't know the power of these weapons, the commander-in-chief said before that these weapons are very powerful and can be used to defend the city. They may be able to achieve good results."

Pei Yu was a little hesitant. The previous few rounds of arrows had achieved little effect. Although these crossbows were larger, they were probably not much more powerful. Could they be effective?

"Sir, it doesn't hurt to give it a try." Mu Han advised.

"Okay, let's give it a try." Pei Yu said. However, he obviously did not completely believe in these weapons that he had never seen before. After finishing speaking, he looked at his lieutenant and said: "Go and assemble the team and be ready to leave the city at any time!"

"Yes, sir!" The deputy general commanded and left.

Mu Han, on the other hand, asked the soldiers of the Kobe Camp to start manipulating the Zhuge Liannu. Wu Fan had mentioned to him how to use this thing before, and it was probably the soldiers of the Kobe Camp who were the most familiar with this.

Although they are actually doing it for the first time.

"Sir, the arrows are loaded!"

Mu Han turned to look at Pei Yu next to him. Pei Yu nodded, and then Mu Han said loudly: "Launch!"

Whoosh!

Thick and long arrows flew out one after another, and the extremely fast speed brought bursts of sound through the air, as if the surrounding air was torn apart.
