The sudden addition of Lu Xiaoxian, Zhang Meng, and Zhao Lang's whirlwind brigade suddenly reversed the situation on the city wall. Especially Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng, like chopping vegetables and melons, killed more than a dozen Tubo soldiers in a short time.

At this time, because the two sides were fighting together, the Tubo marksman on the earth platform was afraid of accidentally injuring his own people, and he did not dare to shoot arrows at will.

Although the morale of the Tibetan soldiers who climbed the city wall was high, they also spent a lot of physical strength in the process of climbing the city. Under the full encirclement and suppression of the defenders on the city wall, it has gradually reached the end of the crossbow.

Since the Tibetan people attacked the city, the soldiers defending the city have been in a state of passive beating, and at this moment, seeing Lu Xiaoxian and others so powerful, their morale was suddenly boosted, and after a while, the Tibetan soldiers who attacked the city were suppressed to the edge of the city wall.

The Tibetan soldiers finally attacked the city wall, how could they give up so easily?

Besides, they have nowhere to retreat, so they can't jump off the wall, right?

Although they were already at a disadvantage, they put up a desperate resistance, buying precious time for the Tibetan soldiers who followed the city.

The Tibetan soldiers on the ladder also climbed up desperately, seeing that they were about to climb the city wall again, if they did not eliminate these Tibetan soldiers who resisted stubbornly on the city wall, the situation would take a sharp turn again.

In this case, the soldiers defending the city couldn't care so much, and a few people jumped off the city tower directly with the Tubo soldiers in their arms.

Finally, all the Tibetan soldiers who climbed the tower were cleared.

Under the command of Zhao Lang, the defenders on the city wall immediately suppressed the Tibetan soldiers who climbed the ladder.

Under the condescending blows of the defenders, the Tibetan soldiers besieging the city had to retreat.

The danger on the city wall was temporarily relieved, but the Tibetan marksmen on the earthen platform began to fire arrows at the city wall again, causing a lot of casualties to the defenders again.

……

Seeing that he was about to succeed but ultimately fell short, seeing this scene, Zanpo, who was riding on a horse with Qin Ling to watch the battle, couldn't help but sigh.

Qin Ling on the side glanced at Zanpo and said lightly: "Third brother, calm down, don't be in a hurry, under the suppression of the archers, they are at a disadvantage, although they didn't succeed this time, they won't last long!" ”

Speaking of this, Qin Ling showed a smile on his face: "Besides, even if you can capture Taozhou City now, you can't capture it so quickly!" You have to leave some time for Wang Xiaojie, if he occupies Taozhou City so soon, maybe he won't show up again! ”

"Huh?" Zanpo didn't answer Qinling's words, but looked in the direction of the city wall strangely.

Qinling also noticed something strange on the city wall of Taozhou: the defenders who were waiting for it just now suddenly seemed to have all disappeared, and there was not even a single figure on the city wall, only the banner hunting and fluttering in the wind.

What's going on?

Did the other side give up the defense?

No way!

As soon as this idea came out, it was quickly denied by Qin Ling.

So what are they going to do?

Not only did Qin Ling and Zanpo feel strange, but those sharpshooters on the earth platform suddenly had no target, but they couldn't shoot out on the string, and they couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Something happened

There must be demons when abnormal.

Just when Qin Ling was puzzled, a figure suddenly appeared on the huge city wall.

Before everyone could react, a small black dot had already shot out rapidly.

Zanpo exclaimed, "It's a gun!" ”

Before Zanpo's words fell, the throwing spear shot by that person had accurately hit the person on the earthen platform, who was the head of a hundred households who was known as the first marksman in Tubo.

The spear pierced through the body of the head of the hundred households, and the strength and speed were still unabated, once again piercing through the two Tibetan marksmen behind him.

The huge inertia smashed the bodies of the three people directly off the earth platform, and fell heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Between the lightning and flint, two more throwing spears were fired from the city walls. One of the shots pierced through one person on the platform, and the other shot pierced through two people, and without exception, their bodies were heavily knocked off the platform.

At a distance of 100 paces, three throwing guns were fired in succession, but none of them missed, and in the blink of an eye, six Tibetan marksmen were shot.

The scene in front of me is so shocking that it is simply not something that can be done by human beings.

Including Qinling and Zanpo, all the Tibetan soldiers were dumbfounded, and the entire battlefield was silent.

At this moment, countless soldiers suddenly appeared on the empty city wall just now, and they shouted in unison: "Great Zhou is mighty!" Da Zhou is mighty! ”

The earth-shattering sound swept like a rolling flood, and the Tibetan soldiers felt that they couldn't even breathe.

Just when the Tubo people were stunned, there were countless small black dots on the city wall like earthen platforms.

Qin Ling was the first to react, and he ordered loudly: "Quick, quickly let the people on the earth platform quickly retreat!" ”

Qin Ling just subconsciously shouted, and his order was too late to reach Tutai.

The small black dot got closer and closer, and finally saw clearly, it turned out to be a huge arrow fired by the bed crossbow, and the heavy object thrown by the catapult, which covered the earth platform mercilessly.

The power of the bed crossbow was so great that it almost completely flattened the upper part of the platform.

Only the people on the earth platform can really feel that the more powerful are the black "guys" projected by the stone thrower. As long as these guys landed on the earthen platform, there would be more than a dozen Tibetan marksmen who let out a terrible scream, which made people feel creepy.

Qin Ling had never seen this kind of formation, and couldn't help but ask in shock, "This, what is this?" ”

"Big talk!" The hateful water on the side whispered, "This should be the golden fire cup!" ”

Over the years, most of the battles between Qinling and Datang have been field battles, and it is the first time that Zheng'er Bajing has sieged the city, so he is not very familiar with the city defense equipment.

Hate Water has been walking in the territory of Datang all the year round and has seen a lot of things, so of course he is more familiar with this.

The body of the Golden Fire Jar is made of clay pottery, and the hot molten metal melt is poured into the jar to seal it, and then it is quickly thrown into the enemy army with a trebuchet. When the pot breaks, splashes of molten metal burn the enemy.

After listening to the explanation of the hated water, Qin Ling was speechless for a long time.

At this moment, another group of small black dots flew towards the earth platform in the sky.

Qin Ling's heart tightened again, if Tutai was attacked again,

I don't know how many sharpshooters are going to be unlucky.

Qin Ling concentrated the marksmen on the earthen platform, originally wanting to suppress the defenders on the city wall, who knew that it was self-defeating, and now it is equivalent to giving the other party a great opportunity to concentrate on annihilating the archers.

The marksmen are all baby bumps in the army, causing such large casualties, which makes Qin Ling feel very distressed.

In fact, Qin Ling's worries were somewhat superfluous.

Although marksmen are highly skilled in archery, they are also human beings, and of course they will not wait for death in place. After the first attack, the Tubo marksmen who survived the attack had already fled from the platform, so the defenders' second attack did not cause any more casualties. However, the earthen platform built by the Tubo people has changed beyond recognition, and the personnel can no longer gain a foothold in the earthen platform.
