For three consecutive days, Zhang Yan has arranged six waves of attacks, and the defensive wall is full of corpses.
However, the Heishan Army was dumbfounded that no one had managed to climb to the top of the wall.
It's not that the Heishan army is too extravagant, but the wars of this era are just like that.
Defending the city had a great advantage.
The most famous is Zhang Xun guarding Suiyang during the An Shi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty.
With less than 7,000 Tang troops guarding Suiyang, he defeated 180,000 rebels.
Moreover, this is still in the era of technological development.
Currently, there are more than 10,000 troops who are elite in Zhending County, as well as several famous generals who are famous in the Three Kingdoms.
Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Yu Jin, if you could beat one of them it would be extraordinary, after all, they were all powerful generals who dared to go against anyone.
If it were not for the integration of the Heishan Army and the reluctance to lose too many casualties, there would be no problem in recklessly fighting the Heishan Army.
Even though the Heishan Army was fighting desperately, it was all a fool's errand to try to break into Zhending with the help of temporary ladders dug from the surrounding mountains and forests.
...
Main camp in Heishan.
At this time, Zhang Yan had long since lost the composure he had started.
Do not know when, but the yellow cloth headscarf was taken off.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he glanced at his 23 Commanders on either side.
Zhang Yan said in a hoarse voice: "We have already attacked six times. Are all of you trash? That scoundrel really settled in County wall, the walls are less than 30 feet, and none of you have managed to climb them."
"Today we must force our way to victory and sacrifice Han Yu for the life of our brothers who were slain."
After he finished speaking, he was ready to appoint the Commanders again to lead his troops against the city.
All of the commanders lowered their heads back unconsciously.
The commanders all knew in their hearts that it would not be easy to break through.
This Han Yu's reputation turned out to be right and the death of a large number of their underlings also made this group of bandits begin to fight for revenge.
At this moment, a commander stood up and slowly said to Zhang Yan:
"Chief, I have a plan."
"Liu Shi, what is your plan?"
Zhang Yan's eyes filled with hope.
Commander Liu Shi gritted his teeth and said: "In recent days when the villages around being plundered by us, we also caught the farmers and villagers."
After a while, Liu Shi said: "We can tie these villagers we caught with ropes and push them under the city walls. Han Yu is the eldest son of Jizhou Governor Han Fu, he must value his reputation, and he would not dare let their soldiers shoot arrows."
"At that time, with these shields, we should be able to break through in one move."
"When we are under the city walls, if we can't attack the city walls, we can kill all of them. With thousands of villagers' corpses, less than 20 feet on the city walls, we can..."
Liu Shi did not speak anymore, and everyone understood what he meant, that is, filling the city wall with corpses.
The other commanders were silent.
The Yellow Turban continues to attract refugees and starving people to join them. The most important point is that they can feed the hungry and treat them equally.
Liu Shi's ruthless plans contradict their daily behavior.
Even though they also looted, it was all for survival, and they had never committed such bloody and brutal acts.
Usually as long as the villagers hand over the food, rarely would anyone take the initiative to kill.
In many cases, directly swept the villagers and integrated them into the group.
At this time, a messenger walked into the tent.
"Reporting to chief Zhang and the Commanders, the latest news is that Jizhou Governor Han Fu has dispatched Min Chun and Geng Wu to lead five thousand troops to come to Zhending."
Zhang Yan was originally hesitant, but now he will not hesitate anymore.
Finally decided to listen to Liu Shi's vicious plan.
"Do it according to Commander Liu's plan, Commander Liu will lead an army of 5,000 people to pressure the villagers to attack, and the commanders' will deploy all troops to attack Zhending in one fell swoop."
Zhang Yan had no other choice.
This Heishan Army was on the edge, and could not support such a large army by relying on the provisions from the surrounding looting.
If we cannot break through this time, some of our underlings will starve.
At that time, the loyalty of the people will be lost, and Zhang Yan, the chief of Heishan will be better off dead.
At the same time, the reinforcements from the Jizhou Governor Han Fu were also the final blow that broke the camel's back.
...
The next day.
The Heishan army forced the villagers who were tied up and slowly headed towards the west gate of Zhending.
The villagers were plundered.
They heard that the Heishan Army would treat them well.
How could they have imagined that they would all be dragged into the battlefield and used as human shields.
Shocked for a moment.
Liu Shi's Heishan army led the 5,000 elites to hide behind the villagers.
Zhang Yan led all the elites to take cover from the flank.
Zhao Yun who was guarding the city at this time.
Seeing this, he hastily dispatched a soldier to report to Han Yu.
When Han Yu heard the report, his face turned blue and his chest filled with rage.
Carrying a spear and clad in armor, he mounted his horse and rushed to the west gate.
This was the first time that everyone had seen the mild-mannered Han Yu get angry.
Guo Jia, Ju Shou, Dian Wei, and other staff were also silent, their faces were serious, and followed Han Yu.
Beneath the wall.
Nearly 2,000 peasants and villagers in tattered clothes were urged by the Heishan Army to head to the city gates.
On the way, the Heishan soldiers behind them killed nearly a hundred villagers because they rebelled and refused to move forward.
Many bodies fell.
Han Yu, who had just arrived at the wall, was enraged and his eyes split open when he saw all of this.
His anger was uncontrollable, and his face was gradually turning blue with anger.
"Zhang Yan, you son of a bitch!"
"Damn Heishan soldiers!"
Never before had Han Yu hated someone so much, not Dong Zhuo, not Yuan Shao, and not Cao Cao.
Zhang Yan became the first person since he arrived in the Three Kingdoms world to be truly despised.
Maybe Guo Jia and Ju Shou would be able to accept Zhang Yan's behavior!
Maybe Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Dian Wei, and Gao Lan would be able to accept Zhang Yan's behavior!
Maybe the heroes of the world are used to this kind of behavior.
However, Han Yu was unable to accept it.
People who were born in the modern world could not accept this.
This kind of treatment of people is unacceptable.
Han Yu's face darkened.
Guo Jia and Ju Shou fell silent.
Zhao Yun and Dian Wei were on standby.
Guo Jia opened his mouth and said: "Master, this great Han world is like a butterfly in the wind, easily broken and scattered. As long as we conquer Zhang Yan, get the Heishan army's supplements, and achieve our great goal, we can properly educate these Heishan troops."
Ju Shou also opened his mouth and said, "Young Master, don't be too angry, the villagers of this village are already living unsustainably… Perhaps this is also a kind of relief..."
In the eyes of aristocrats like Guo Jia and Ju Shou, this was a frequent case of troubled times, not to mention that it was not just the lowly people of the mountains and plains who died.
Although they did not understand why Han Yu was so furious.
Nevertheless, Ju Shou still wanted to persuade Han Yu, this talented young man.
"No, you don't get it!"
Han Yu said in a deep voice.
"I, Han Yu, will bring peace to the world in this lifetime, and make the world bright and prosperous."
This was also the first time Han Yu had revealed his ambitions to the strategists and generals around him since he had traveled to this world.
After speaking, in anger, he became arrogant and looked back at Zhao Yun, the white horse, and silver weapon poised beside him.
"Zilong, are you willing to join me and take the heads of the Heishan Bandits?!"
After he finished speaking, he took his spear and horse, signaled the gatekeeper to open the door, and then rushed out of the city gate.
Like a sharp sword cutting through the sea.
Momentarily stunned, Zhao Yun laughed, impressed by Han Yu's arrogance!
"If this is Young Master's order, naturally I dare not refuse."
After he finished speaking, he picked up his spear and horse, and headed out from the west city gate.
