1054.Chapter 1054

An iron armor-clad utility came out of the goose hole, ran a few steps and got directly into the ladder car, a freshly sharpened thirty refining curved knife, biting tightly in his mouth, along the ladder wrapped in animal skins, struggling to climb up.

The ladder truck was divided into several levels, all connected by ladders, and he had to climb to the top floor and leap up the city wall from the heavy slab bridge that was paved to the battlements.

However, the ladder between the upper and lower floors of the ladder car is wrapped in several layers of thick cowhide, and some places are protected with iron plates, which is difficult for ordinary bows and arrows to shoot through, protecting the safety of the officials and allowing them to climb calmly.

The battle continued, the Xia army organized crossbowmen and pikemen, surrounded in front of the board bridge of the ladder car, once someone came out, a burst of arrows were shot to kill, and those who were lucky enough to rush over were also picked down by spears, and the bones and tendons were broken if they did not die, which was extremely tragic.

He safely climbed to the top of the ladder, a relatively safe area, and more than a dozen people had gathered, three with shields in front, three with crossbows to follow, and the others with soldiers in hand, ready to make final preparations. Right above them, several crossbowmen were engaged with the defenders' bows and crossbows, and they were fighting with pleasure.

Just as the general in the ladder gave an order, at the same time as the baffle was opened, more than a dozen people rushed out with a roar of rage, with the fear of death, trying their best to let out a roar to comfort themselves, no one hesitated, let alone retreat, and of course they couldn't retreat.

At the moment there was a burst of short-distance crossbow arrows, most of the arrows were shielded at the moment, only one person was shot through the face gate, and directly fell to the city, and the rest of the people approached the city wall step by step, three crossbowmen pulled the trigger and shot down three Xia soldiers, and the strong crossbow was thrown down the city, and they all drew their sharp blades and prepared for hand-to-hand combat.

The crossbowmen of the defenders retreated, and five or six pikemen came up, and for a while they poked and stabbed indiscriminately, and two people were picked out of the city.

Seeing that the stalemate would surely die, the utility man jumped up to the city with a loud shout with a curved knife, and slashed a sought-after soldier with a single sword, and the frightened defenders hurriedly retreated, and the rest took the opportunity to jump onto the city. They were apparently trained in siege and quickly formed an arc on the city wall to cover the coming up of the next brothers.

Even if they are wearing iron armor, it is impossible to cover everything, there are still people who are smashed with cooked copper sticks and spraying blood, no one cares about the dead, they are all fighting for survival, and there is still insufficient self-preservation, how can they save others?

Utility His eyes were red, he jumped up with an arrow, and slashed at it with a single sword, and one of the defenders was caught off guard, and his whole head was cut off by the sharp blade, and the brains and blood spurted out, splashing him all over.

When his knife has not been withdrawn, a general with a big axe pounced head-on, he could not retreat, and there was no way back, he could only swing the knife and slash, pounce on the front general, this is the consciousness of death, even if it is retreat, it is death, it is better to exchange life for life, so there will be a glimmer of life.

In a small space, so many people fought hand-to-hand, rushing to kill each other, the two people slammed into each other, tearing each other without grace, the axe fell to the ground, and the fist hit each other in the face.

The utility figure is not tall, and it is very difficult to tear it up closely, and he was punched twice in the cheek, and blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

It turned out that it was a servant who seized the opportunity and greeted the general with the big gun in his hand, and the two of them were fighting, and the weakly protected ribs were completely exposed, and he was very lucky that he was not the one who was recruited.

The brutal hand-to-hand combat on the head of the city made people unable to think about it, seeing the officials assassinate the general, they were slashed on the shoulder in a blink of an eye, fortunately there was heavy iron armor protection, the steel knife did not hurt the body, and the whole person was also repelled by the strength of the battlements, barely supporting the opponent's sword and gun, at least it was quite wolf.

On a hot day, the sun was scorching, the heavier the armor, the thicker the clothes, and the officials who attacked the fortified positions had thirty or forty pounds of armor all over their bodies, holding heavy soldiers, and the sweat soaked through the thick layers of linen, and they were tired to death if they couldn't fight to death.

The battle is still going on, it is better to be desperate, and the utility shows superb fighting skills, dodging the iron mace and smashing three people to death in a row, all of which are bursting brains. There are corpses everywhere underfoot, piled on top of each other, and if you are not careful, you can trip over.

In less than 100 breaths, there were only six or seven people left in more than ten people, and the defenders in front of them gathered more than ten people to outflank them, seeing this momentum, it was to devour them alive, and there was no way to retreat. ”

The effect of smashing and killing five or six people in a row, has been covered with three wounds, although it is not a fatal injury, but it has been bleeding, and the strength of his body is constantly lost, and he understands that he will not be able to support it for long, and he will really stay if he does not leave.

When he used all his strength to cut down a soldier, a feather arrow **** came, hitting his breastplate, because the distance was very close, he even saw a crossbowman with a strong crossbow, the arrow penetrated the iron armor, the body suddenly lost its strength, and the iron shovel in his hand slipped down.

When he fell like an iron tower, almost the same thing was happening at the head of the city in front of every ladder truck, killing or being killed, and no one paid much attention to it.

However, fortunately, the Song army's artillery attack for several days has been effective, a section of the city wall in the south can no longer withstand it, collapsed thirty zhang, how can a great opportunity be missed, Xiao Heda was greatly excited, immediately organized the assault troops to rush and kill, the defenders also desperately resisted, and the two sides reproduced the cruel scene of the collapse of the city wall of Lingwu City.

Due to the collapse of the city wall, the defenders fell into a state of panic, and the Song army seized the opportunity, Xu Huiyan invested in the reserve to strengthen the offensive, and the sky above the city wall was interwoven with artillery arrows, as well as rockets dragging tail smoke, adding a magnificent scenery to the bloody void in the evening.

The defenders were already strict and insufficient, and they had to send troops and horses to plug the gap and contain the Song army's frantic offensive, and the reinforcements received on the city walls weakened, and more and more Song troops came up with ladder trucks.

He was at the head of the city in Beicheng, and he kept receiving bad news one after another, he fought thousands of people against tens of thousands of Song troops, and fought bloodily for more than ten days, which was enough to make him proud and make him feel sad.

If, at this time, there can be reinforcements arriving, maybe they can force the Song army to retreat temporarily, now that everything is over, people have collapsed the city wall with powerful projection weapons, and they will never give him another chance, and they can do everything they can, and now they can only die for the country, and it is a luxury to hold on to the last soldier.

Inadvertently, he turned his head to look at the remnant sun that was about to set, the remnant red before the sinking, like blood, flashed his eyes, thinking of the fate of his sister, and suddenly felt that maybe he was just like this remnant red, unwilling but helpless to sink down.
