    Zhang Liao and his men worked hard and finally dug a hole in the city gate.

    However, before the soldier responsible for the last step could feel proud, a spear was thrust out of the hole and pierced through it instantly.

    The spear just hit his throat. The man covered his neck and let out a few "ho ho" sounds, then fell to the ground and died.

    Only then did Zhang Liao react, and murderous intent instantly appeared on his face. He rushed forward quickly and grabbed the spear that was about to be withdrawn.

    At the same time, he pulled out the sword from his waist and stabbed it through the hole. After a scream, Zhang Liao finally avenged his dead brother.

    However, he also discovered a problem.

    Originally, Zhang Liao planned to dig out a hole first, then gradually expand it, and then eventually destroy the entire city gate.

    But as soon as he took action, the enemy troops immediately rushed to the city gate and stood ready.

    Just as a small opening was made, he was attacked by the enemy and lost one soldier.

    If he wants to continue, the enemy will definitely not remain indifferent. How can he proceed smoothly under the harassment of the other party?

    In this way, the plan that Zhang Liao just thought of is about to end in failure.

    But he was very unwilling to do so. He stared at the city gate tightly and finally had a new idea.

    Seeing that Zhang Liao's plan failed, he made another plan and focused his attention on the door axis at the corner of the city gate.

    The opening and closing of the city gate is done through the door shaft. If the door shaft can be destroyed, wouldn't the entire door collapse instantly?

    Therefore, Zhang Liao immediately started to do something there again.

    But the city gate axis is not so easy to destroy. It is very secretly hidden inside. Not only do you have to cut the door, but you also have to smash the wall.

    Such movement instantly alerted the enemy troops in the city.

    Chen Dao even put his ear tightly against the city gate to find out what the enemy's methods were.

    When he heard this, his face changed drastically and he exclaimed: "No, the enemy wants to destroy the door axis! They must be organized!"

    "But the enemy's bows and arrows are so powerful that there is no way to move on the city wall. What should we do?" Deng Fang said with a sad look on his face.

    Chen Dao's eyes rolled rapidly, and he finally said sternly: "If you continue to sit here and wait for death, you will die sooner or later.

    Since they are all dead, we might as well just open the city gate and fight with them!  As long as all the people on the opposite side are killed, I'm afraid they won't dare to do it again!  "

    Deng Fang wanted to say something else, but Chen Dao had made up his mind and could not change it.

    I saw that the other party immediately ordered another city gate to be opened. Amidst the harsh creaking sound, a gap slowly leaked out of the originally closed city gate.

    Chen Dao took the lead and stabbed directly through the gap.

    "Oh!" With a scream, the soldier closest to him was killed instantly.

    Zhang Liao suddenly turned around after hearing the news, and at a glance he spotted Chen Dao who had just escaped.

    When he saw that the other party wanted to stop him, he shouted loudly and started fighting with him in front of the city gate.

    At this time, as the city gate gradually opened, many soldiers rushed out and charged towards Zhang Liao.

    The man who was digging was attacked and could only turn around to face the enemy.

    When Chen Dao led his troops to attack, Zhang Liao's side, which had few people to begin with, was immediately at a disadvantage.

    The archers who were responsible for covering the rear were afraid of accidentally injuring them, so they did not dare to shoot arrows here rashly.

    Zhang Liao took a look and had no choice but to fight and retreat, and retreated to the rear.

    Chen Dao's purpose itself was to prevent them from destroying the city gate. Since Zhang Liao retreated, he would naturally not risk attacking.

    Therefore, the strategy that was about to succeed was once again undermined by the enemy.

    Zhang Liao had no choice but to retreat to his own formation and anxiously wandered back and forth, thinking of better ways to break the city.

    At the same time, Gan Ning had also encountered the team transporting small catapults.

    Although these catapults are called small, they are still not small in size.

    In addition, it has been raining recently and the roads are muddy and difficult to travel, so the delivery speed is very slow.

    Seeing this scene, Gan Ning felt anxious.

    He watched as the catapult got stuck deep in the mud due to its heavy weight. The soldiers had just lifted it out with all their strength, but after taking a few steps, it sank in again.

    If we follow this pace, I¡¯m afraid it may not all arrive tomorrow.

    But Gan Ning just issued the military order in front of Liu Ke. If it cannot be delivered today, it will delay His Majesty's attack on the city.??.

    Even he himself cannot forgive himself.

    But how to deal with such a situation?

    Suddenly, Gan Ning's heart moved and he thought of a way.

    This is when he recalled his childhood, the environment where he grew up was like this, every place was muddy when it rained.

    At that time, they would tie two wooden boards to their feet and slide in the mud like a sled.

    This is not affected at all and is even faster than normal running.

    So Gan Ning thought, since people can do this, then what about these catapults?

    He did what he thought of. Anyway, there were a lot of planks stored on the ship, so he immediately ordered someone to fetch some and tied them to the feet of the catapult.

    After giving it a try, the effect was unexpectedly good.

    The catapult was no longer affected by the mud, and even the soldiers pushed it with much less effort than before.

    Gan Ning was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered all the catapults to do the same thing.

    The problems that originally plagued his actions were finally solved.

    " Then Gan Ning didn't hesitate anymore and pushed the catapult hard together with the soldiers and glided towards Liu Ke's location.

    Time passed quickly, Gan Ning hurriedly hurriedly arrived, and it was already evening when he finally arrived at the camp.

    Liu could see that today's attacking soldiers were exhausted, so he finally withdrew his troops and returned to camp to wait for another day of fighting.

    At this time, Gan Ning ran in covered in mud: "Your Majesty, the general is incompetent. He has only now transported the catapult, which has delayed the progress of the army. Please forgive me!"

    Liu Ke looked at his embarrassed look and knew that Gan Ning had tried his best.

    So he smiled and said: "Xingba, there is no need to blame yourself. It's getting late today and the soldiers are tired. I don't blame you.

    But since you feel guilty, you will be responsible for tomorrow¡¯s attack!

    As long as you can blast away the city before noon tomorrow, not only will I forget the past, I will also reward you heavily!  "

    When Gan Ning heard this, he immediately became excited, but he did not rest.

    Rather, in order to prepare for tomorrow's attack, the catapults were directly transported to the frontline positions.

    In the darkness of the night, the enemy army did not see clearly what was going on here. In addition, the enemy army was already tired, so there was no action tonight.

    Early the next morning, the air was filled with thick fog again.

    But this could not affect Gan Ning, because he had already debugged the catapult overnight.

    As soon as Chen time arrived, Gan Ning couldn't wait to give the order to launch.

    The whistling boulders flew out of the thick fog and bombarded them in the direction of Lexiang. When the enemy couldn't see the situation clearly, the boulders fell down.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
