Chapter 102: Fire Tree Silver Flower
"Chirp!"
The piercing sound continued to echo on the battlefield, and one after another crossbow arrows were fired, bringing up blood flowers and taking lives.
It's close! The "bandits" are finally close.
"Ready!"
The crossbow arrows of the "bandits" shot the sergeants under their command unscrupulously, and Liu Hu's anger finally erupted, and the longbowmen behind the female wall and in the corner tower were ready, bowed into a full moon, ready to attack.
"Put!" Liu Hu roared again,
"Woohoo!" After the two dark clouds intersected in the air, they quickly dispersed, and the positions of the "bandits" on the city head instantly dimmed.
"Ding, ding, ding!"
"Puff puff!"
The sound of the arrow hitting the iron shield and the sound of the body hitting each other rang out. The "bandit" queue, which was originally advancing neatly, was instantly opened, and the neat pace was also a little messy, and it seemed that it had not been adjusted, and it had resumed its formation, still advancing slowly.
"Put!"
"Put!"
Liu Hu's voice kept coming from the city, and dense arrows descended on the "bandits" again and again, and the screams and screams were mixed together!
However, Liu Hu at the head of the city was not optimistic, several waves of arrows clashed, although there was a draw with the "bandits", but Liu Hu himself knew that he was at a loss, he had to admit that the sharp crossbow arrows of the "bandits" had been suppressed, and the longbowmen defending the city in the city, and their own sergeants, were also a little timid.
Liu Hu looked out of the city from the lookout of the corner tower, and the crossbow arrows of the "bandits" under the city flew to the city with great strength, and the longbowmen on the city head were exhausted!
staring at the changes under the city with a solemn face, he knew that the battle on the arrows, Yucheng could not be compared with the "bandits", so he could only wait for the "bandits" to rob the city, and then do the contest.
However, the "bandits" outside the city did not continue to attack, set down the shield array, and then, from the rear of the formation ran out of some foot soldiers, pushing a simple catapult to the city, if at this time Zeng Yu or the generals of the Hedong Army in Yucheng, they can all recognize, the Zhaoyi Army wants to make the "flying fire" also known as artillery, is a kind of gunpowder made into a ring, ignited the hanging wire with a stone thrower, thrown out.
Liu Hu has never seen such a situation, he has dealt with the Khitan wolf cavalry more, but he has never fought with the Han army, he was a little puzzled for a while, but he couldn't come up with any ideas, he could only stare dryly, staring at the "bandits" under the city and making various preparations.
And when the archers and crossbowmen under the city were also replaced with "rockets", and the stone-throwing trucks were also swinging in a row, with ten stone-throwing vehicles in each row, three rows in front and back, Liu Hu finally felt the danger.
"Knock knock! Knock knock! ”
The sound of drums and trumpets under the city sounded again and became more intense.
"Order the sergeants at the head of the city to hide in the corner tower or go down to the city! Fast! Fast! Liu Hu realized that something was wrong, although he didn't know how the "bandits" under the city attacked, but letting the soldiers hide could still reduce some casualties.
"Whoosh......"
The sound of the stone-throwing truck sounded instantly, dozens of stone-throwing vehicles were launched together, and dozens of "artillery" flew to the head of Yucheng with firelight, Liu Hu had never seen such a strange scene, and some surprising things flew to the city.
"Boom! Boom"
Suddenly, fireballs appeared, and a loud bang came, and the soldiers on the city who were still in the future, retreating or hiding, were killed, the unlucky ones were blown off, and the luckier ones were blown away.
And not only that, the "rockets" under the city also came to help, and on the wall of Yucheng, for a while, like fire trees and silver flowers, fireworks flew. Even a sergeant as bold as Liu Hu was frightened by the loud sound of fireworks, and he was terrified for a while.
After a few loud noises, the "artillery" and "rockets" under the city stopped firing, and at this moment, the Yucheng sergeant who was also counterattacking in the city, Feng Dao smiled proudly, and with a wave of his hand, the sergeants of the Zhaoyi Army prepared a ladder to climb Yucheng.
In the lookout hole, the rock-throwing cart rocket was no longer launched, Liu Hu breathed a sigh of relief, if these things were launched endlessly, he really didn't dare to guarantee whether he could defend Yucheng, but fortunately, he saw the opportunity early, and withdrew most of the sergeants, or hid in the corner tower, the casualties were not huge, but the sergeants were frightened by the scene in front of them It was true.
The "bandits" who slowly approached Yucheng on the cloud ladder, Liu Hu couldn't think back to the scene just now, and immediately bent his bow and arrows, and said loudly: "Don't be afraid, in the corner tower, those "artillery" can't hurt anyone, hurry up and release the arrows!" Don't let the "bandits" get close to the city! ”
Then Liu Hu ordered, the longbowmen in the corner tower on the city pulled their bows and shot arrows, and the "bandits" who were rapidly approaching the city were caught off guard and were injured a lot by this rain of arrows.
However, Feng Dao's methods were far more than that, those crossbowmen shot rockets at the top of the city, and for a while the sergeants could not climb the city, and the arrows in the corner tower could not stop the "bandits" who came to climb, and Yucheng fell into a predicament for a while.
"Don't be afraid, if we can't defend Yucheng, the whole family will have to explain to these "bandits"! Listen to my orders, and when the "bandits" rush up the walls, we will go up again, faster! Liu Hu has never been attacked like this, so he can only see the move.
But Feng Dao's experience is far more experienced than him, the strange appearance of the city wall of Yucheng made him also have a headache for a while, there was a figure on the head of the city, but in the corner tower on the city, arrows continued, which brought a lot of casualties to his soldiers who climbed the city, and his "artillery" and "rockets" were helpless to take these corner towers. As a result, the attack method was changed immediately.
The "bandits" who landed in the city with slightly heavy casualties once again withdrew from the range of Yucheng archers.
"Boom, boom!"
Liu Hu heard the loud sound of the stone throwing cart and the firing of flints, and hurriedly made a clever move from the lookout hole to the city, shouting: "Go to the city gate!" Go to the city gates! ”
The sergeants were stunned for a moment, and before they could react, they heard a loud bang at the city gate!
"Bang!"
The sound of bombardment continued to sound at the city gate, and the movement was like a crash of a car attacking the city gate.
Liu Hu ran out of the corner tower and shouted, "Go to the city gate!" ”
Under the city, thirty stone throwing trucks, "artillery" fired together, pointing directly at the south gate of Yucheng, continuous bombing, the south gate of Yucheng appeared not so solid. The south gate of Yucheng was originally made of iron wrapped in hardwood, but Liu Hu did not block the south gate, but also left Feng Dao with a chance.
"Boom, boom!"
"Bang bang bang!"
There were several rounds of continuous bombardment, and when Liu Hu led the soldiers in the city, he just got off the city wall, and he heard a loud "boom", and the city gate was bombed!
Liu Hu didn't have time to think, so he immediately ordered: "The sword and shield hand is in front, the pikeman is in the back, and the longbow man is covering on the city wall!" We must not let the 'bandits' rush into Yucheng! ”
Fortunately, most of the soldiers who stayed behind were the children of Yucheng, and they did not collapse due to the collapse of the city gate, and under Liu Hu's orders, they reacted quickly and arrived at the designated position.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The leaders of the "bandits" kept roaring, leading their subordinates to rush towards Yucheng, and a bloody battle was about to break out!
