IV. 208 Siege Battle

Master Wu smiled: "That's a small bombardier that we have developed that can catapult people onto the city wall. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Yin Lei was stunned for a moment, and Master Wu continued: "But after getting this kind of connector of yours, I have abolished that idea, that kind of small bomb thrower is not mature, once it is used, nearly half of the people will fall to death, but this kind of vehicle for transportation can be used to transport connectors, do you still have any questions?" ā€

Yin Lei thought for a while and said, "We are standing so high now that almost the whole battalion can see it, how can we keep it secret?" ā€

Master Wu pointed behind Yin Lei and said, "Do you still need to keep it secret?" You see....... ā€

Yin Lei looked in the direction pointed by Master Wu, and saw that more than 100 of those giant vehicles had already driven out of the camp gate and were heading in the direction of Taiping.

Yin Lei was taken aback and said, "We have already begun to officially attack the city?" ā€

"Yes, we may have to spend the night in Taiping tonight."

Yin Lei pointed to the soldiers below and said, "Master Wu, since the city has been attacked, why are they still here?" ā€

"Do you really think the trebuchet in the city is an ornament? The cars outside were half-finished products that we had built to attract trebuchets, and the stones in the city were limited, and only when they were about to use them could they take the turn of the real soldiers. ā€

As the two were talking, a piercing roar sounded in the sky, and the thrilling howling sound from a distance of several miles still made people's hearts sink, and then they saw that the huge transport trucks that had been close to Taiping within two miles were shattered, Yin Lei's eyes narrowed and he immediately used the 'Spirit Eye Technique', only to see that there were cows and horses running out from time to time in those shattered transport vehicles, but most of them were directly stoned to death.

The transporter in front was destroyed, but the one behind was not afraid, they still rushed forward without fear of death, but there were too many trebuchets on the other side, and this transporter was not only big but also very slow, so that it became a real living handle, Yin Lei They watched here for a whole hour, and there were no less than five hundred transporters from here in the Dragon Kingdom, but none of the transporters could reach the city.

At this time, within two miles of the Taiping City Wall, there were corpses of such transport vehicles and stones flying from Ziyun, and it was impossible for the transport vehicles behind to pass even if they were not hit.

Sure enough, just when Yin Lei was wondering in his heart, all the transport vehicles suddenly stopped, and then thousands of soldiers came on the field, and after they went up, they divided into groups of five and divided into two hundred groups to start cleaning up the battlefield in front, and the other party's trebuchet also stopped at the right time, as if waiting for them to clear the field before fighting with the transport vehicles.

Yin Lei understood that it was not that the other party was kind enough not to fight these soldiers, but that trebuchets had little effect on such a loose team.

Half an hour later, the battlefield was cleared of dozens of passages, and then the transport vehicle appeared again, so the piercing whistling sound in the sky began again, but Yin Lei found that this time the opponent's stone rain seemed to be much less.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiang's eyes lit up and said: "Almost, the stones in their city have at least six layers or more, they are afraid that we will have another backhand and dare not use them all, next time we can drive the transport vehicle to the city, they will also leave some stones for backup, it seems that our connector can be loaded." ā€

Yin Lei looked at it and said, "The soldiers under the city are fishing for wood from the river, and it seems that the wood put upstream is in place." ā€

Several people hurriedly looked down at the city, but except for Xiao Qiang, several old people were already dizzy and couldn't see the movement under the city wall at all.

Sure enough, as Xiao Qiang expected, after clearing the field again, the giant transport vehicles with connectors and three thousand elite soldiers in red armor behind the small wooden layer drove towards the camp gate, and at this time, another giant transport truck had already gone out and drove under the city wall.

The sound of boulders flying in the sky sounded again, but its momentum was several times smaller than at the beginning, but when the purple side found that there was something on the transport vehicle this time, although they didn't know the function of this thing, they also understood that it must have a miraculous use, and suddenly the stone rain that had just subsided became violent again, and for a while the sky whistled again, and when the giant transport vehicles behind the cabin came to the camp gate, the transport vehicles in front were almost completely destroyed.

At this time, the soldiers who had been attacking the city for twelve hours a day under the city wall finally stopped, and more and more wood floated downstream, and they had no time to attack the city again, and while they were scooping up the wood, the road behind them was cleared again, and finally five hundred transport vehicles were dispatched, but they were not followed by those elite soldiers in red armor but ordinary soldiers.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiang said: "Xuanyuan, let's go back, the final decisive battle is coming." ā€

Yin Lei answered, and the two of them said goodbye to the three old men and went to the command platform of General Chu outside the camp, and when they came to the command platform, there were already more than 300 giant transport vehicles under the Taiping City Wall.

At this time, there was silence on the command platform of more than 100 zhang square circles, and everyone stared at the opposite city wall with wide eyes, and after the giant transport truck was in place, the soldiers began their work - assembly.

When the Ziyun soldiers on the city wall saw the wooden frame rising from the ground, they were all taken aback, and the long-lost rolling wood, stones, gold water, boiling oil, etc. immediately poured down, and the soldiers assembling the shelves below were immediately killed and injured.

General Chu in the back snorted coldly when he saw this: "Finally brought out the family foundation?" Herald...... Half of the soldiers assembling the shelves were removed, and the rest attracted the enemy and did not let them stop. ā€

The herald immediately ran out, and a moment later, a drum sounded, and the soldiers under the city wall in front immediately withdrew nearly half, and the assembly speed of the shelves immediately slowed down, but the fire on the city wall still did not dare to stop, but even if half of the men were removed, the casualties on the side of the dragon country were still not light.

At this moment, many fire-causing things were thrown on the city wall, and they wanted to set fire to the wood below, but these woods had just been fished out of the water, so they could not be easily lit, and under the city wall was the Gufeng River that was drawn, and the soldiers immediately raised the river water and extinguished all the fire-starters.

After half an hour, General Chu ordered again: "Order...... The first guard replaced the three guards and six guards in front, and the second, fourth, fifth, seventh, eighth, and ninth guards were ready to attack at any time. ā€

The herald immediately ran down, and after a moment nearly 10,000 soldiers scattered and rushed under the city wall, and saw someone rushing forward to the stone machine in the city and roared again, but this time the roar of the trebuchet seemed to be a little weak, and it was a little worse than before.

After paying a slight casualty, the 10,000 people struggled through the muddy and miles of empty space covered with boulders and debris of the transport truck to the city wall, the soldiers under the city wall were relieved, so they began to retreat with many wounded, at this time the soldiers under the city wall can walk back by themselves no more than half, these can walk with the wounded, if it is not for the shortage of bows and arrows on the city wall, these people want to come back is really difficult.

When the first guard reached the bottom of the city wall, the battle escalated again, and the most thrown on the wall were rolling logs and stones, so the trebuchets in the city completely stopped.

Another hour passed, General Chu glanced at the generals behind him and said: "Generals, the time for the decisive battle has finally come, after we attack the city, the opponent's top master is likely to attack desperately, and our master will lurk in the ordinary soldiers for a while and ambush under the city wall first, if their master dares to make a move, he must not let one go." Herald...... General Zhao and I set off with the Scarlet Guards, and the other guards were ready to attack at any time, and everyone attacked in half an hour, and today we will definitely take Taiping City. ā€

After all the generals on the command platform answered in unison, most of them stepped down one after another, and the command platform seemed a little empty for a while.

"Xiao Qiang, Xuanyuan, you will attack with me in a while, Xuanyuan thank you for your trickery, let us reduce most of our losses, you should be the first to capture Taiping City this time."

Seeing that the generals were gone, General Chu excitedly called Xiao Qiang and Yin Lei nearby and said, Hearing General Chu's words, everyone immediately looked up and down at the ordinary-looking young man in front of them, and in the eyes of many, Yin Lei immediately found that the fifth prince Liang Yushan was also there.

Hearing General Chu's words, Liang Yushan couldn't help but take a few steps forward and said: "Who is my Dao, it turned out to be Brother Xuanyuan, last time I didn't ask around Yushan for news of Brother Xuanyuan, it turned out that Brother Xuanyuan had already joined the army, but it really made Yushan easy to find." ā€

Hearing Liang Yushan's words, including General Chu, they were also shocked, they didn't expect Yin Lei to be an old acquaintance with the five princes.

"The villain has seen the five princes, and he is very happy to see the five princes Xuanyuan."

Liang Yushan took a few steps forward and helped Yin Lei up and said: "Brother Xuanyuan doesn't need to be polite, I said last time that you and I are friends of cloth, and you are still my savior, Yushan can't fiddle with your identity in front of you no matter what." ā€

Hearing Liang Yushan's words, everyone's hearts jumped wildly, they never thought that Yin Lei would actually save the life of the fifth prince Liang Yushan.

"The five princes are serious, with the masters around the five princes, even if Xuanyuan doesn't prompt, he will be fine."

"Brother Xuanyuan's words are a little insincere, okay, this is a battlefield, not a place for you and me to catch up, and after we capture Taiping, Yushan will definitely set up a banquet, and then Brother Xuanyuan should not refuse."

"It's a villain's honor."

While a few people were talking, the camp gate was wide open, and three thousand elite soldiers in red armor rushed towards the opposite city wall like a tide, and I don't know whether the other party really had no stones or moved all the stones to the city wall, and these three thousand elite soldiers rushed to the city wall and the trebuchet did not launch it.

When the three thousand elite soldiers arrived under the city wall, the people behind them immediately saw that they were different, those giant trees that originally required four people to resist could be moved by one person, and those connectors that could only be resisted by eight or nine people, the two of them easily resisted, so that in a moment those shelves rose more than three layers and six zhang high, this time the Ziyun soldiers on the city wall finally panicked, and suddenly all kinds of things poured down, but these elite soldiers were all strong and strong, and saw the people on the city wall desperately throwing down the rolling wood and stones, They immediately rolled over and retreated, and as soon as what above converged a little, they would go up again.

After doing so several times, there was hardly anything left to throw on the wall, and the elite soldiers took the opportunity to put another layer of wooden shelves on them, this time standing on the shelves less than two feet from the city walls.

At this moment, suddenly dozens of sword lights flashed, and dozens of figures jumped down from the city wall, and the swords in the hands of these people sent out seven or eight feet of sword light to cut towards the shelf that had already been set up for most of them, and suddenly most of the shelf was shattered, and at this moment, countless sword lights suddenly burst out under the city wall, immediately entangled those who jumped down, and General Chu behind saw the corner of his mouth and showed a sneer: "You finally can't help it?" Herald...... Command the three armies...... Sortie. ā€

General Chu ordered several camp gates to be opened, in addition to the necessary personnel left behind, hundreds of thousands of troops shouted and rushed towards the city wall, General Chu said to the Liangyushan next to him: "Your Highness, General Wei personally led the men and horses to attack Taiping, and asked His Highness to watch the battle for General Wei here." ā€

"Okay, General Chu Yushan wishes you a successful start and success."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your good words."

Then Chu Mingfan saluted Liang Yushan with a fist and shouted: "All the generals and officials...... Join General Ben in battle. ā€

Saying that, he stepped off the command platform first, got on his horse and headed under the city wall, Yin Lei, Xiao Qiang and the general soldiers of the auxiliary arms followed behind, and rushed under the city wall under the escort of three thousand bloodthirsty iron horsemen, and the fiercest part of a big battle began.
