The slingers, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately took the mallet and knocked on the stake, and with a whoosh, dozens of stones weighing several pounds rushed towards the city tower with a whistling sound. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The arrow tower with wheels below also moved forward with Li Haoran's order, pushed forward by a vote of shield soldiers and archers. The siege vehicle, which was covered with iron all over its body, quickly rushed to the city gate under the cover of a shield soldier.

Under the command of the officer, the soldiers on the city tower first used bed crossbows and catapults to aim at the arrow tower to launch a counterattack, but unfortunately the accuracy of the bed crossbow installed on the city wall was too low, and none of the first round of shooting was successful, but the enemy soldiers were pierced several times.

As for the catapults, not only were they not accurate enough, but they were also seriously not powerful enough, and they just happened to break a wooden fence in the arrow tower like a chicken. Of course, there were dozens of soldiers of the Haoran Legion who were unlucky enough to be stoned to death.

On Li Haoran's side, the catapult saw that the arrow tower was in danger, and at the same time discovered the location of the bed crossbow catapult, and immediately adjusted the angle of the catapult, preparing to destroy these most threatening instruments in the first time.

Here, the other soldiers on the tower either drew their bows and arrows and aimed at the enemy, or held oil cans and wooden cylinders and stones, quietly waiting for the enemy to arrive at the city, ready to give them a good look at immediately.

In just a few moments, the shield soldiers under Li Haoran had already rushed to the bottom of the city tower, covering the cloud ladder, and the sword soldiers immediately climbed up.

The soldiers upstairs waited for their chance, and threw the stone and wooden oil cans down as if they didn't want money, and when they heard the screams below, they hurriedly threw down the torches, and a strange smell of barbecue meat immediately went straight to the sky with a miserable howl.

Then, the siege car, which was the main force of the siege, finally arrived at the gate and began to ram, but it was also treated with burning stones, and it was only because the shield guards did not burn on the spot.

The rumbling sound of the ramming caused the siege engines to attract a large number of oil tanks, and when the oil was so large that it soaked the earth, the shieldmen could no longer extinguish the flames on the siege vehicles, and even they could not avoid such flames.

After making sure that your catapults had pinned down most of the enemy's bed crossbows and catapults, and that the turret was in a position where it could fire at the walls, it was time for the siege vehicle that had been sent up earlier to be destroyed. Li Haoran waved his hand, and the remaining siege vehicles immediately began to charge under the escort of the shield soldiers.

Li Haoran's soldiers were of course extremely painful in attacking the city with their heads up, and in just a few moments, they were destroyed by one siege vehicle, three catapults, five arrow towers, and hundreds of ladders, and the soldiers suffered more than 2,000 casualties, most of whom were shot, stoned, and burned to death.

Of course, the soldiers on the castle tower were not very happy. Three or four catapults and bed crossbows were smashed, and three or four hundred soldiers were stoned to death and shot to death.

One of the defensive sections was the worst, it was actually rushed up by the enemy, and hundreds of people were directly hacked to death, if it wasn't for the fierce generals on their side to press down the enemy and destroy the ladder in time, I am afraid that this entire section would have fallen into the hands of the enemy.

Although the battle seemed to be very fierce, for both sides, this was just a warm-up battle, so when most of Li Haoran's soldiers had participated in siege battles, Li Haoran sounded the gong and retreated.

After a period of cheering from the castle tower, there was only a rush of gasps, and everyone knew that the enemy was just retreating to rest, and that tomorrow's battle would be much fiercer than today's.

The soldiers didn't think about anything, but those officers frowned at the corpses under the city tower, and if they didn't drag these corpses to bury them, I was afraid that it wouldn't be long before the plague would appear, but if the enemy took the opportunity to send cavalry to charge for a while when they left the city, wouldn't they lose a group of people in vain?

However, Li Haoran obviously did not have such a vicious idea, but was very humane, and when the troops retreated, he sent someone over to say that he would clean up the bodies of the dead soldiers. Of course, the officers on the castle tower were happy to accept this request, and since the greatest benefit was still on their side, no one proposed to take the opportunity to attack and kill.

The next day, Li Haoran found out very well that not only the handsome banner of the city tower had changed its name, but also there were several more officers wearing gorgeous military uniforms on the city wall.

Li Haoran was certainly a little sad and not very happy, and the senior officers on the city tower couldn't help frowning while being proud.

Because on Li Haoran's camp, in addition to raising the banner of the first brigade of the second division, the banner of the fifth brigade of the first division was also erected overnight, and it seems that the fifth brigade of Zhao Hujun, which attacked his side, had already joined Li Haoran last night.

However, when Li Haoran began to divide the troops into more than a dozen teams, the senior officers on the city tower frowned together, and when they saw that the other party's trick was obviously preparing for wheel warfare, the senior officers alone would not be worried, after all, they could also use wheel warfare.

However, then they saw that the Fifth Brigade had sent soldiers to Li Haoran's more than a dozen teams in batches, apparently preparing to use the old to lead the new and conduct actual combat training on the spot.

As soon as they thought of this, the senior officers couldn't help but scold their mothers, damn Zhao Hujun actually used himself here as a training ground! If they dare to do so, it means that they have great confidence in winning

Why do they have such faith? Is it just the tens of thousands of people in front of you? Or will Zhao Hujun really transfer the strength of the entire division and regiment?

When the senior officers were distressed, Li Haoran did not say hello and directly attacked.

The intensity of the battle this time was much stronger than yesterday, because the siege equipment was more than double that of yesterday, so after a while, Zhao Hujun broke through several city defense sections in a row and launched a fierce battle.

If it weren't for the fierce city defenders who personally led the troops to rush forward and seize control of these sections in real time, I am afraid that the city wall would be firmly occupied by Zhao Hu's army, and it would not be far from the city break.

This time the battle lasted from morning to dusk, and it was not until Li Haoran's troops were all rotated that Ming Jin withdrew his troops and completely retreated to rest.

On this day, although the soldiers in the city were also in rotation, they were the one who was attacked, even if they withdrew to rest, they couldn't help but worry about whether the city would be breached, so they couldn't rest at ease like the rotating troops of Zhao Hujun outside the city.

Therefore, when Li Haoran withdrew from the army, his tense mind relaxed, and the whole person immediately felt very tired, but he had to start cleaning the wreckage on the city tower under the scolding of the officer, which was really painful.

On the second day, when the senior officers saw that the banner of the Third Brigade of the First Division of Zhao Hujun was also erected, they felt uncomfortable for a while.

Although the strength of the siege force is at least five times more than that of the defending force to besiege the city, now that the other party is only a little more than himself, there is no need to worry. It's just that the continuous increase of the enemy's troops is very demoralizing to the soldiers defending the city.

Moreover, there was a deep concern hidden in the hearts of the officers, Li Haoran had said that day that the chaos in the eastern part of the province was caused by Zhao Hujun, and the troops of the entire division were rushing to this side.

If this is a lie, everyone naturally doesn't need to be nervous, just spend time with him. But if it is true, it means that most of the territory in the eastern part of the province may have fallen into the hands of Zhao Hujun, and at that time, won't his side become an isolated city?

It's a fart like this! I just don't know if the scouts I sent out broke out to find allies to rescue, but thinking about the scout's ability, it's really a bit mysterious.

It's just that these people are no longer willing to obey the orders of others, and they finally took this opportunity to get power and status, so do they just give up?

Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! However, if you can't beat it, you can surrender when the time comes, maybe that Zhao Hu will reuse himself when he sees his brave and good fighting appearance.

In short, you should prepare for both.

When the war began, the eyes of these officers were rolling, and outsiders thought they were thinking about how to fight.

According to the requirements of five times the siege and ten times the siege of the city, the officers and soldiers in the city gradually became more at ease, after all, the enemy army was only a little more than themselves.

However, as the new brigades contributed siege equipment and used all siege equipment in a centralized manner, the mood of the defending troops immediately sank.

Nearly 100 catapults fired a salvo, and the overwhelming rain of stones immediately fell on the city, in the face of such an attack with nowhere to hide, it can only depend on whether your character is good or not, whether the stones will be smashed over, as long as you are on the city tower, you don't have to think about it.

In addition to the rain of stones, there were hundreds of arrow towers that were lined up in a row, completely blocking the entire section of the city wall, and were close to the point of only a few tens of meters.

The archers on the top of the arrow tower relied on the protection of the barrier and shot arrows at their side. This time, no matter how good his character is, he can escape from the stone rain, he will inevitably be shot by these archers.

Why not destroy these towers with bed crossbows and archers? Please, who would dare to brave the blow of the stone rain for bed crossbow manipulation and bow and arrow shooting?

As for the enemy's siege vehicles? At this time, there are so many that the city gate can't be plugged, and it has begun to directly find the city wall to collide.

Such a fierce attack hit the defenders of the city almost couldn't raise their heads, and when Zhao Hu's army began to rush up the tower, the officers who couldn't resist had to call out the team that was ready to rotate in advance.
