Chapter 115: What's the Significance
Bingzhou City, since the beginning of the pre-Qin three families, is a famous fortified city in northern China.
Back then, the ancestors of Zhao relied on this city to survive the siege of three families and survived the first strong country of the Warring States: Zhao State.
Although the address of Bingzhou City is not the same as that of Bingzhou City, however, the benefits of Fenshui are still there, and Bingzhou City is still operated by the Han King as an iron wall.
At this time, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the Han army set up a large array outside the city of Bingzhou, but did not launch any attack.
Sima Jiu stood on the tower of the south gate of Bingzhou City, and as far as the eye could see, outside the city, there was the elite of the Han King who could not see the edge at a glance.
He was wearing a pair of mountain armor that Li Jiancheng found for him, although this armor was not as good as Li Jiancheng's Mingguang armor, it was also well-made.
Feng Li once told him that this mountain inscription was turned out of Yang Liang's inner library, and the status of the Han King was respected, and the collection was definitely not ordinary.
Facing a tenfold enemy, Sima Jiu wanted to know how the people in the state were acting at this time.
He couldn't help but look at the tall and tiger-like Yang Xuangan in front of him, wearing a bright red armor, which made him particularly conspicuous on the city tower.
Yang Xuangan and Yang Xuanting have similar facial features, however, he has more calmness and perseverance, and he has the demeanor of a general.
More than a dozen guards wearing black hammer armor, like iron men, tightly guarded Yang Xuangan, obviously, they were to guard against the sneak attack of the Blood Moon Killer.
Dou Luyu stood next to the arrow buttress on the right side of Yang Xuangan, and beside him was a burly man with sparse hair, and the man's hair on the top of his head was braided into a braid, which looked a little funny.
Sima Jiu learned from Li Jiancheng that this person was Dun Keluo, the leader of the Murowei people.
In front of a cup of tea, a Han army general who was doing equestrianism at the south gate of Bingzhou City was killed by this generous man who was shot in the center of the eyebrows with an arrow, and the subtlety of his archery skills can be seen.
The thousands of chamber Wei and Yan Ya archers next to the arrow battlements on the city tower are Yang Xuangan's confidence to guard the city.
Most of the Murowei people are stocky and stout, while the people of the Murves wear their signature felt hats, and the two are easily recognizable.
Not long after, the large array of men under the city of Bingzhou finally moved.
A man in a golden helmet and golden armor, riding a handsome black horse, walked slowly from the Han army in the direction of the city gate.
Five hundred steps, four hundred steps, three hundred steps......
The man had completely forgotten the tragic fate of the Han general, and stopped within range of the Murowei archers.
"Long live my king, long live my king."
"The Han army is invincible, the Han army is invincible."
The Han military formation outside the city suddenly made a noise, and countless soldiers raised their weapons in the air to salute the man in golden helmets and armor.
This person is the current king of Han, the younger brother of today's son, and Yang Liang, the governor of the state.
Sima Jiu looked intently, the Han King's appearance was extraordinary, his eyebrows were extremely low, and his eyes were bursting with fine light.
"Dou Luyu, I treat you as a brother, and entrust the city of Bingzhou to you, but now, you are good at killing Zhu Tao, and you are still passing on the head to me, do you still want to receive Yang Su's reward alive?"
Yang Liang was full of anger, obviously with martial arts, and the Han army listened to his words, and shouted long live non-stop.
"Yang Su, an old thief, was lucky to win over Puzhou, and now, he is so rampant that he dares to send his eldest son here. Bingzhou is the place where Yang Su is full of deaths. ”
The King of Han pointed directly at Yang Su, and there was no disrespect for the emperor of the current dynasty.
"Yang Sumen died here." When the Han army heard this, they shouted in unison, and the momentum was very huge.
"The soldiers in the city, this king knows that you are threatened by Dou Lu Yu, it is not the original intention, if you can help me capture the city of Bingzhou, in the future, this king will be rewarded, if you are obsessed, the day the city is broken, you will be killed."
"The king's army of 100,000 besieged the city and broke through the city, only before the end of the day."
On the tower of the city, many people changed their color when they heard the voice, looked at each other, and hesitated.
And Yang Xuangan did not change his face and sneered slightly.
Yang Xuangan let the other party scold, but he was indifferent, such a city made Sima Jiu quite amazed.
However, Dou Luyu on the side couldn't hold his breath.
He is not a frivolous person, but in the city of Bingzhou, he can control no more than 10,000 troops, if he is allowed to be lured by the king of Han, I am afraid that the army will be unstable.
So, Dou Luyu waved his hand, and the murowei musketer on the city wall fired a volley of ten thousand arrows, directly hitting the king of Han.
The Sui army fought, firing arrows at one hundred and fifty paces and using crossbows at two hundred and fifty paces.
However, the bows and arrows used by the Murowei people were different from those of the Sui army, and their bow tension was greater than that of the Sui army.
Countless arrows covered the King of Han like dark clouds, but the King of Han was indifferent.
Sima Jiu looked at King Han curiously, wanting to see how he dodged.
However, just as Sima Jiu was blinking, a man in black had quietly appeared beside King Han.
"Blood Moon, Moon King!" The person who came was the Yuejun that Sima Jiu had seen yesterday.
Yuejun was the same as last night, with his bare hands, he swung out both fists at the same time, bringing out countless silver winds, dragging the arrows to spin in the air, and in an instant, the arrows turned into powder, and no arrows could get close to the place within ten zhang of the King of Han.
The soldiers inside and outside the city of Bingzhou only felt that a bright moon seemed to rise in the sky, shining with silver light, which was pitiful.
Outside the city, the king of Han stood still, but the bow and crossbow could not hurt him half a point.
Then, King Han slowly raised his hand, and after a few pauses, he suddenly pointed to Bingzhou City.
Suddenly, in the Han army's formation, the war drums roared, and the sound of killing shouted to the sky.
The soldiers of the Han army were all in their blood, they carried ladders, held shields, protruded from the military formation, and rushed towards the city of Bingzhou.
Behind them, countless arrows were fired at the head of the city, trying to cover their advance.
On the city wall, thousands of arrows were fired in unison, covering the sky and sweeping towards the approaching Han army, intending to kill and injure the Han army and prevent them from advancing.
Before the two sides could get close to each other, countless soldiers were killed and wounded by arrows.
Not long after, under the city of Bingzhou, there was already a dense heavy armor shield, except for countless Han troops who climbed the ladder to attack the city tower, there was no head to be seen.
In the distance, countless crossbow archers took the opportunity to fire crossbow arrows at the castle tower.
The soldiers of the Doulu family in the castle shot arrows together with the warriors of the Murowei Warriors, and the arrows crackled on the shields, but they did not bring much damage.
The Han army was outnumbered and poured into the city like a tide, and it was obvious that they wanted to take advantage of their superiority in strength and kill the city wall as soon as possible for hand-to-hand combat.
The king of Han must recapture Bingzhou as soon as possible and stabilize his position before he can turn back to face Yang Su's army.
Soon after the uprising of Bingzhou City, the Han King did not have much time to make siege equipment, so the Han army only had simple siege equipment such as cloud ladders and rushing cars.
One after another, ladders were erected, and the soldiers of the Han army held shields and climbed up one after another, completely ignoring the casualties.
On the city, the defenders were constantly drawing their bows and arrows, shooting at the climbing Han troops from all directions.
However, under the impact of the Han army's casualties and the dense long-range arrow rain, the casualties of the defenders on the city became more and more large, and before long, Han troops climbed the city wall one after another.
Sima Jiu blocked the arrows while paying attention to the situation above and below the city.
In less than half an hour, no less than a thousand corpses had been left on the city walls.
The casualties on both sides were extremely heavy and miserable, and the lives were harvested like mustard.
Sima Jiu saw one Han army after another being hit by the rolling stones in the city, and fell from the air more than ten meters in a miserable scream, making a dull sound.
Such a tragic battle made him saddened.
In the distance, the Han King had a calm face and a calm gaze on the city walls, while the generals under his command continued to deploy troops to strengthen the siege.
As the minutes passed, more and more ladders climbed the city wall,
The elite of the Han army, worthy of the name, they are all not afraid of death, most of the time after the start of the war, the Han army has attacked the city wall, occupying a section of the city wall to open a breakthrough for the follow-up troops.
Yang Xuangan knew that the battle had reached a critical moment, so he raised his spear and led the left and right guards to cover the past.
Li Jiancheng and the others shouted and rushed to the section of the city wall occupied by the Han army with him, Sima Jiu couldn't bear it, he didn't come here to kill people for Yang Su, so he just pretended to follow behind them.
The spear is suitable for fighting in battle formations, Yang Xuangan held the spear, wielded it with great power, and several Han army heroes were drawn into the air by his spear and fell directly to the city.
Yang Xuangan is a noble and wealthy family, and his strength is not bad, as the leader of the star network, he must have a lot of tricks.
However, compared to Yang Xuan's hearty and dripping soldiers, Sima Jiu was full of compassion for the soldiers on both sides who were killed and wounded everywhere.
What's the point of fighting and fighting?
