The ant soldiers who drove the siege of the city turned against each other, and in the end only came back less than half, and the head of the Tongluo tribe was so angry that he pointed at the nose of the townsman Fan Changming and scolded: "The old thing almost broke a certain siege plan, this account can only be recorded on your head, if you want to live, you have to come up with enough things to redeem your life!"

Fan Changming never thought that his defection would result in such an ending, which was too different from what he had previously thought. Isn't it supposed that the Fan army fought Kecheng, and the righteous people of Changshi Township helped and helped? Now it is good, the Fan family has three casualties, even the second son Zhonglong was seriously injured, and most of the strong men of Changshi Township brought out were also lost, how can they explain to those families after returning to the township......

Not counting these, the hateful feudal general is going to take the opportunity to extort again, but how can he live.

Thinking of all this, I can't help but cry.

Xin'an City contained more than 1,000 strong men from Changshi Township, and Qin Jin immediately sent these people out of the west gate of Guancheng and arranged for them to go to the west. He would never dare to let these people who had just experienced a rebellion stay in the city, and at the critical moment of the enemy, if someone made a disturbance, it would be a matter of life and death.

If the soldiers fail to strike a blow, they will never give up, and if it is not bad, Xin'an City will usher in a more fierce siege next. The north wind turned around, and the goose-feather-like snow began to fall, and the snow water in the dozen cauldrons in the city was already boiling, and the soldiers next to him added firewood to the pot from time to time, and roasted their frozen hands by the way.

After an offensive and defensive battle that was close to a false alarm, the spirits of the soldiers in the city were already tense to the extreme, and anyone could feel that the onslaught of the rebels was coming, and everyone quietly enjoyed this last moment of peace.

This moment didn't make them wait long, and with a terrible and strange whistling, shouts of killing came up like a tidal wave. Qin Jin perked up and exhaled a long breath, bringing out a white mist.

It's finally here!

Woohoo!

Just a glance at the city can't help but be terrifying, the ironclad soldiers roared in a voice similar to a wolf's howl, if the defenders of the city are new recruits, there are not a few who are afraid of being scared to pee their pants.

"Ready!"

The crossbowmen lined up neatly on the city wall, raised their crossbows and placed them on the battlements, and aimed at the ironclad soldiers who were rushing forward from afar.

Tongluobu adheres to the consistent combat strength of the Tiele people, can ride and shoot on horseback, and can fight on foot when dismounting, invincible and invincible, which is also one of the reasons why they can be as famous as An Lushan's personal guard and drag down the river.

Even if there was no fighting, just looking at these moving ironclad beasts was terrifying. Qin Jin was not a newcomer to the battle formation, and in the face of the rolling ironclad soldiers, he still ordered with a cold face: "Two hundred paces away, prepare to shoot!"

Tang Jun's crossbow is a sharp weapon to kill the enemy, and there is a reason why he chose this distance, after several rounds of salvo fire, the crossbowmen's arm strength is not light, and the efficiency of opening the crossbow and arrows has been greatly reduced, so he can only sacrifice accuracy and increase efficiency.

The ironclad soldiers of the same Luobu are far from being comparable to the strong men of Changshi Township, even if they are wearing iron armor, they are walking like flying, and the distance of two hundred steps is approaching in an instant, and the rain of arrows on Xin'an City shoots out, and the sound of bowstrings trembling and crossbow arrows breaking through the air repeatedly drums.

When the rain of arrows fell, dozens of soldiers immediately rushed to the ground, and the Tang army's heavy crossbow was extremely powerful, and even the iron armor was difficult to resist. The remaining soldiers were indifferent to their comrades who fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, and let out a wolf howl with cold sabers and shields in their hands, still holding on.

What Qin Jin didn't expect was that when the Fan soldiers advanced to a distance of 100 steps from the city wall, the crossbowmen only fired two volleys, and seeing that the ladder of the Fan soldiers was about to hit the city wall, the united soldiers began to lose their breath and became impetuous. Let them shoot these soldiers with heavy crossbows at a long distance without any psychological pressure, but since they saw the terrifying combat effectiveness of the soldiers that day, these united soldiers have left an indelible shadow in their hearts.

The thought of being about to fight with him in close proximity made his palms sweaty and his mouth dry. For this reason, several crossbowmen made mistakes when opening and winding their crossbows, and the crossbow arrows almost missed their comrades.

Qin Jin saw it in his eyes and knew that up to now, no words could inspire these people's courage to fight, and only in the experience of blood and fire could they become real iron-blooded warriors.

With the sound of snapping one after another, the high ladders were set up at the head of the city, and the captain Qi Bihe immediately commanded a team of united soldiers to hold a long pole in their hands, and pushed the ladders out one by one, and overturned backwards.

There were more and more ladders at the head of the city, and the tactics of turning the ladders over soon made mistakes, and several soldiers took the opportunity to climb the city wall, but they were immediately surrounded by soldiers who were several times their size, and they were hacked to death.

There were also soldiers near the city wall where Qin Jin was located, and after killing the united soldiers who were caught off guard in front of him, he saw at a glance the conspicuous cyan official robe, waving his saber like a hungry wolf pounced on food, and rushed straight over. Due to the reason of defending the city, Qin Jin did not have a special guard by his side, so in a hurry, he pulled out the horizontal knife on his waist and rushed forward with almost the same speed. He has a kind of understanding of this kind of cold weapon warfare, and the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road.

In the blink of an eye, he realized that this idea was outrageously wrong, and the soldier saber did not fight with it at all, just like a flexible serpent repeatedly swung towards his chest and waist, if it were not for the flexibility of his body, he was afraid that he would have been splashed with blood on the spot.

Under the pressure of the soldiers, Qin Jin was dwarfed, and his movements became more and more chaotic. In the flash of light, the horizontal knife and the saber exchanged blows for the first time, but the saber turns and stabs him diagonally in the abdomen, this time it is too close and too fast, and it seems that he can't dodge it no matter what.

But the soldier's movements suddenly froze, and he suddenly stumbled two steps, Qin Jin took the opportunity to dodge the fatal knife, and slashed the horizontal knife through his bare neck with his backhand, blood spurted out, and with a sizzling roar, his heavy body fell to the ground with a bang.

After killing the Fan soldier, Qin Jin saw that three or five steps away from the left front, Qi Bihe kicked over a Fan soldier and pulled out the horizontal knife inserted into the opponent's abdomen, and nodded at him. It turned out that the scabbard in his hand was thrown by Qi Bihe in a hurry, and it hit the calf of the soldier, and he was lucky enough to kill the soldier.

After the initial chaos, the unity soldiers, under the leadership of Qin Jin, finally slaughtered all the waves of soldiers who climbed to the top of the city, and they gradually adapted to such a fast pace of battle. Seeing that the second wave was climbing up again, Qin Jin lifted the bucket, filled the boiling cauldron with boiling water, and then aimed at a ladder and poured it down, and a miserable howl suddenly came from the city.

The soldiers followed suit, and they also filled buckets with boiling water and poured them down the ladder set up at the head of the city.

The bare head and face of the Pancheng soldiers were immediately boiled by the boiling water, and the boiling water soaked into the iron armor soaked the linen inside, and in the middle of winter when the north wind called for dripping water to become ice, the boiling water that lost its temperature would instantly condense into ice. Under the attack of hot and cold, the soldiers were miserable.

In this way, the arrogance of the soldiers was quickly suppressed, and the united soldiers shouted excitedly, and their morale soared.

The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded rapidly from outside the city, which was the military order for the withdrawal of the soldiers. At this point, Qin Jin's body couldn't help but slacken, and the extreme nervousness and excitement consumed too much of his strength. But in less than a moment, the roar of the horse's hooves knocking on the ground turned from far and near, and he looked at the black iron cavalry outside the city in disbelief getting closer and closer, and his heart was puzzled, did the other party want to use cavalry to attack the city?

Qi Bihe shouted badly: "The soldiers want to fill the city with soil!"

The Tiele people dealt with the relatively short earthen city, and made good use of the method of filling the city with soil, such as Xin'an City, which was not more than a foot high, just applicable to this method, and the cavalry used sacks to carry the soil, and filled it to a sufficient height outside the city wall, even if the cavalry could attack the city. However, this was the middle of winter, and the mountains were covered with endless snow, so the soldiers of the Tongluo tribe naturally replaced the soil with snow blocks.

In the face of the tactics of filling the city with earth, pouring boiling water and rolling wood and stones lost their power, and the only weapon that the Tang army could deal with was the crossbow. However, due to the previous battle and retreat from the enemy, almost everyone tried their best, and it was extremely difficult to open the crossbow again, the efficiency was greatly reduced, and the lethality was not as good as before.

The cavalry of the Tongluo tribe filled the city with snow galloped and roared away, and in an instant, countless pieces of snow covered the corpses of the soldiers under the city, and built a high slope. If this speed continues, it won't take more than an hour for the soldiers of Tongluo to rush directly down the snow slope to the Xin'an city wall.

This thought immediately made Qin Jin feel creepy.

The snow has become more and more dense, and it has reached the point where it affects the line of sight. Du Mo looked at the vague Xin'an city wall in the distance, and a disdainful sneer appeared on his face. He used this trick to deal with the Khitans in the small town of Liaodong almost repeatedly, and now he will not miss when dealing with these soft-footed chicken-like Han people.

The only thing that is a little disappointing is the growing goose feather snowflakes, if this battle is against the Khitans, he will definitely withdraw his troops, after all, it is easy to be attacked by the enemy in this situation where the line of sight is blocked. But how can the soft-footed chicken-like Han people be compared with the Khitans? Looking at the current Fan Yang and Lu Long, how many of the armies that can really fight tough battles are mainly Han people? Aren't they all Fan Hu people?

For this reason, Du Mo not only sent all the cavalry, but even urged the cavalry to speed up the siege of the city several times, encouraging his troops to enter the city before sunset to warm up and rest.

The news soon came back, the Tang army was pouring boiling water on the snow slope, and the snow melted and quickly condensed into ice, so that the snow slope turned into an ice slope, and no matter how people and horses stepped on it, it was easy to slip due to loss of balance, and the siege became difficult.

"Who dares to take a step back, don't blame the ruthlessness of so-and-so's saber!"

Losing his patience, he became angry, believing that this was an excuse for his men to escape the bitter battle. This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened, so he forcibly urged his subordinates to attack Xin'an.
