The book is followed last time.

"It's so unreasonable, it's simply outrageous. How could the loss be so great?!"

As Li Zheng thought, after all the soldiers ran back, Huang Zhong looked at the list of dead in his hands and felt very anxious.

"Just these three rounds of arrow rain took away nearly 6,000 troops, which is amazing?" Huang Zhong slapped the list of deaths in his hand and roared heart-wrenchingly: "Doesn't this mean that as long as the enemy's more than 50 rounds of arrow rain can kill our 100,000 troops?! How can I fight this battle?!"

Huang Zhong was going crazy after seeing the list of dead. He would lose 6,000 people in one attack. So wouldn’t ten attacks be 60,000?

Twenty times that would be 120,000!

But it is not possible to cast that artificial mountain in just twenty times, and at least fifty or sixty times!

In this way, it is impossible for them to complete the task if they pay all the troops in their hands!

After thinking of this, Huang Zhong's face was full of decadence.

Wei Yan, who was standing beside him, frowned and thought for a while, and comforted him: "General Huang doesn't have to be so decadent. How could the enemy have so many arrows?

Just now, the generals could see clearly that the enemy had turned all the soldiers on the city into crossbowmen.

In other words, the enemy's arrow rain will cost more than 20,000 arrows, and these three rounds will cost more than 60,000 arrows!

Even if there are 200,000 to 300,000 arrows in the city, they can only shoot 20,000 to 30,000 people. After their arrows are exhausted, they will have no choice but to wait for me."

"..." Huang Zhong felt relieved after hearing Wei Yan's words, but then he frowned and asked, "What if the enemy has 1.8 million arrows?"

"This is absolutely impossible!" After hearing Huang Zhong's words, Wei Yan immediately shook his head decisively and said confidently: "Didn't the general notice? When we were waiting for the attack just now, the enemy shot three rounds of arrows, but when I was waiting for the retreat, the enemy did not shoot a single arrow!

This proves that the enemy's hand does not have many arrows, so we didn't use the arrows to chase us."

In fact, Wei Yan felt that it was overestimated that he said that the enemy had 200,000 to 300,000 arrows.

Because in this year, the function of arrows is not to shoot and kill the enemy, but to suppress the enemy.

No one would bring too many arrows when defending the city. It would be enough to bring a little 100,000 or 200,000. Carrying too much is a burden.

Especially in siege battles, arrows play a very small role.

In addition, the financial resources spent on training a crossbowman are too much, and the crossbowman relies too much on logistics when fighting, so only three or four thousand crossbowmans are trained in ordinary troops.

Generally, a crossbowman who can pull a bow ten times in a row is considered to have a super strong arm strength. In other words, if a thousand crossbowman who can do their best can shoot tens of thousands of arrows in a day.

Therefore, when defending the city, not many people were willing to carry too many arrows because they did not work and were wasted logistics labor.

With this skill, they are not better than anything else to bring more food equipment?

These are common sense of leading troops to fight, so Wei Yan believed that there were absolutely no million arrows in Hulao Guanzhong, and at most there were two hundred thousand arrows!

However, he ignored a key point - why the enemy suddenly took out more than 20,000 bows!

The enemy can suddenly take out more than 20,000 bows, so why can't we take out more than one million arrows?

But this problem was caused by these two people

After listening to Wei Yan's words, Huang Zhong's eyes rekindled hope and nodded repeatedly: "Wen Chang is right, the enemy definitely does not have too many arrows, and at most there are 200,000 to 300,000!

Even if he has the largest number of 300,000, he can shoot and kill 30,000 people, and only 30,000 people. I still have the loss!”

After coming here, Huang Zhong regained his spirit and ordered the messenger beside him: "Transfer the orders of the five military forces, and ordered the king to send out six thousand troops to supplement the front army and order the front army to continue to cast mountains!"

"promise!"

"Dongdongdongdongdong..." As the war drum sounded, more than 100,000 troops were carrying stone sacks and other objects, and rushed towards Hulao Pass frantically.

Li Zheng, who was in Hulao, chuckled when he saw this, waved his hand and said, "Let it go!"

“Buzz…”

"Ahhhh!!!" This rain of arrows took away the lives of two or three thousand soldiers!

After Huang Zhong and Wei Yan, who were watching the battle, saw this situation, their fists were tightly clenched and murmured: "The enemy has few arrows, and the enemy has few arrows..."

They can only comfort themselves like this now, because now they have no choice but to watch the enemy shoot their soldiers!

If there is a little way, they will not deceive themselves here!

"put!!!"

“Buzz…”

“Ahhhh…”

"put!!!"

“Buzz…”

“Ahhhh…”

After two rounds, the attacking soldiers finally threw all the things on their shoulders on the low wall.

Then they fled like rabbits who were caught in an arrow, and soon they arrived in the central army.

After returning to the central army, the morale of the entire army was very low!

Because this kind of battle that can only be beaten but not fight back is too cowardly!

However, they did not dare to violate the orders of Huang Zhong and Wei Yan, so they could only hold their breath and continue to carry the stones and striking belts to continue to die.

Half an hour later...

Huang Zhong clenched his fists, stared at the city wall, and murmured: "It's been ten rounds, and they have shot about 200,000 arrows. I guess there will be no arrows, right?"

"Big...probably..." After hearing Huang Zhong's words, Wei Yan answered with guilt.

To be honest, he can't figure out how many arrows the enemy has now.

Because judging from the enemy's unhesitating shooting just now, the enemy does not look like he is almost without arrows.

In general, if the guardian side almost loses arrows, they will reduce the amount of crossbowmen and concentrate the arrows to those who are better at archery skills.

But now the crossbowmen on Hulao have not reduced, which means they are not short of arrows at all!

However, although Wei Yan thought of this, he did not dare to say it out.

Because once they say it, their plans will be completely lost. At that time, they have to admit failure. They would rather deceive themselves than point out this!

So, they pretended not to expect this and looked straight at the city wall, hoping that the enemy's arrows would be smaller in the next round of archery.

Unfortunately, reality is reality, and they will not deceive themselves.

Changes by people...

"put!!!"

“Buzz…”

“Ahhhh…”

During the eleventh round, the enemy still shot more than 20,000 arrows, causing them to lose two or three thousand soldiers!

"Bang!" Seeing this, Huang Zhong suddenly threw the whip in his hand to the ground and roared in a deep voice: "What's wrong! The enemy is definitely not only between 200,000 and 300,000, as we guessed!

At this point, the enemy will have at least 500,000. We can't let the soldiers die anymore!!"

After saying that, he didn't care about Wei Yan's face changing drastically, turned his head and ordered loudly to the commander: "I'm sending me the military order, and I'll call the gold to stop the troops!!!"

"General! Never!!!" Wei Zhong immediately grabbed his arm after hearing Huang Zhong's words and stopped him loudly: "We have lost more than 20,000 people now. If we stop here, wouldn't our previous efforts be in vain?!"

"Hmph!" Huang Zhong snorted coldly when he heard Wei Yan's words, and trembled his hand and asked with a gloomy face: "Do you let me watch the army we are waiting for to die?!

Let me tell you, I can’t do it!

Judging from the situation just now, it is obvious that the enemy is more than 200,000 to 300,000 arrows, or even 500,000 to 600,000 to 1.8 million!

If I continue to act according to the method just now, wouldn’t I pay more than 100,000 troops?!”

"General, don't get angry first, listen to my subordinates." After hearing Huang Zhong's words, Wei Yan took a deep breath, pressed his hands, stared at Huang Zhong's eyes and said seriously: "General, we have no way out now, we can only walk one way to the dark!

Because, I have lost 20,000 troops just now. If I change my strategy, wouldn’t it be wasted the previous loss?

So even if the enemy really has more than 500,000 arrows, we must not stop!

It’s just a loss of 50,000 troops. For our hundreds of thousands of troops, 50,000 troops is not too much!

General, only by exhausting the arrows in the city can we calmly cast the mountains, so we must never stop now!!”

"..." After hearing Wei Yan's words, Huang Zhong closed his eyes and remained silent for a long time before suddenly asking: "What do you mean is to let me take a gamble?"

As he said that, he suddenly opened his eyes, stared at Wei Yan tightly, and asked word by word: "Take the lives of hundreds of thousands of troops to bet?!"

"..." After hearing this, Wei Yan pursed his lips, nodded fiercely, and said, "That's right, it's just a gamble!

If it succeeds, then I will make a lot of money!

Even if we fail, we will lose 100,000 troops and still have the advantage, so it is worth my bet!”

"It's just a loss of 100,000 people?!" After hearing this, Huang Zhong was completely angry, grabbed Wei Yan's clothes, and roared in a low voice: "What you said is light!!

This is the life of a hundred thousand people, not a hundred thousand grasses!!

This is the pillar of a hundred thousand households. Without them, how can these people live at home?!"

"..." Wei Yan heard Huang Zhong's roar, raised his head, stared at his eyes tightly, and said seriously: "General, as long as you agree to continue the attack, then in a while, my subordinates are willing to be the pioneer and be the first to carry a stone to build a city!"
