Volume 5, Iron and Ruthless 11, the siege begins
Chen He's admiration for Zuo Zucong made Huo Miao and Mu Yong feel a little uncomfortable, the two of them glanced at each other, while Yan Wushuang's eyes lit up slightly, his martial arts were second only to himself, and he seemed to be able to try it out if he had the opportunity.
At this moment, Chen He didn't have time to pay attention to the expressions of the generals, and then said: "Everyone, this battle must be won, and it must be a big victory, now the recruitment has reached 1.7 million, although compared to the enemy, we are still at an absolute disadvantage, but since the general led the army, no matter how big the disadvantage has been encountered, this disadvantage, in fact, is nothing, not to mention that the enemy is only five million, and it cannot reach the ratio of ten to one, let's just say that our city wall is enough to offset any advantage of the enemy!" Therefore, after this battle, it is not the end, but a beginning, after defeating the enemy outside, the target is too void city, and it is going to be! Can you take it down for Ben? ”
"Yes!" Chen He's inquiry, the generals immediately shouted, yes, in the battle of Liuyin Mountain, they only had more than 20 people, and in the face of an army of 1.5 million, they won the victory with almost zero casualties, so this time, 5 million enemies, they also have 1.7 million, and there are high walls, the ratio of numbers cannot even reach the level of three to one, if they are defeated, they might as well wipe their necks and commit suicide directly, they can't afford to lose that person.
After everyone left the City Lord's Mansion, Chen He recruited his subordinates, and after discussing it again, the defense was completely arranged, for Chen He, there are two subordinate existences, the biggest role is not in the God of War Realm, but in the War Martial Continent, because Chen He wants Taixu City, it is not enough to take the Taixu City from the God of War Realm, he also needs to take the Taixu City from the War Martial Continent, so they need to recuperate, once the war here is over, they will start from the War Martial Continent as soon as possible, Take Taixu City, completely occupy Taixu City, and make Taixu City a city of Yunshan Temple.
Two days passed, and the scouts' battle reports were also in a string, and the five hundred troops finally arrived at the foot of Wuyun City, and then a war emperor came out on horseback and shouted to the city: "Qiao Zhenyu, come out!" ”
"Lord, this person is Sun Baosheng, the former city lord of Wuyun City!" At this time, Shen Ming next to Chen He spoke.
"City Lord Sun, I'm sorry, Old Qiao is not in Wuyun City, City Lord Sun has anything to say, tell me the same, I will convey it on my behalf, or I will send City Lord Sun to talk to Old Qiao, it's okay to say it to your face!" Chen He looked at Sun Baocheng and responded.
Sun Baocheng looked at Chen He from a distance, frowned, and then glared at him and said, "You are the peerless Tianjiao Chen He of the Yunshan Temple?" "After all, a warrior actually dared to talk to him as a war emperor, and Sun Baosheng couldn't help but think of Chen He.
"It's the kid, the city lord of Sun, the name of the peerless Tianjiao, the kid deserves it, he is a little talented, and the soldiers under his command use their lives!" Chen He responded modestly.
"Okay, good, Chen He, your courage is not small, in the face of our five million army, you still dare to stay in Wuyun City, this emperor is very curious, who gave you such courage, a small warrior, actually dare to use his mantis arm as a car! What about Qiao Zhenyu, isn't he afraid to come? Sun Baosheng looked at Chen He and said.
"No, it's really that Wuyun City is too small, and it's not used to living, Qiao Lao threw this broken city to the kid, what to say, let me practice my hands, keep it, just throw it away if you can't keep it, if he wants it, he can take it back at any time! Before, Qiao Lao also said that he wanted to come over to help me, saying that he couldn't look at some shameless bullying of my juniors, but the kid thought about it, a lost dog, there is nothing to be afraid of! Chen He looked at Sun Baosheng and opened his mouth to be excited. After all, Wuyun City is Sun Baosheng's heart, he has developed for so many years to have today's scale, but Chen He said that he was a broken city, said that he was a lost dog, and he was angry.
"Sharp-toothed boy, after the emperor breaks Wuyun City and captures you, I will have to pull out your teeth!" After all, Sun Baosheng is the emperor of war, and he has experienced countless wars in his life, and he will not lose his mind because of a few words, and after seeing that Wuyun City is really only garrisoned by Chen He, he is also relieved, and he sneers in his heart, the dead Tianjiao is just a piece of!
As Sun Baocheng pushed down, then the army of Taixu City began to disperse, as Meng He said, the people of Taixu City blocked the three gates of the east, west and south, leaving the north gate alone, as if deliberately leaving Chen He a way out.
Siege warfare has always been the most difficult, but Wuyun City is a well-armed border city, so whether it is a city defense equipment, or siege equipment are a lot, Chen He took over Wuyun City, naturally also took over the equipment here, and now in the face of the enemy's attack, the soldiers began to operate the equipment to launch a counterattack.
And Meng He divided the archers into three groups early, and stationed one on the city wall, handed over to Huo Miao and Mu Yong to command, so the first wave of siege was repelled by the rain of arrows in the sky, leaving thousands of corpses, the second wave of attacks began, this time it was composed of shields, carrying wooden shields, covering the infantry charge below.
Facing the cover of the shield soldiers, Huo Miao and Mu Yong, who were familiar with the routine of Meng He, ordered the archers to prepare a bow and Lan arrow array, and when the enemy entered the coverage range, the two of them took Meng He, and the three of them attacked almost at the same time, and it was Gong Lan three consecutive shots.
The overwhelming rain of arrows, like a sharp axe falling from the sky, easily tore the wooden shield of the shield soldiers, and sieved the soldiers below to the range, and after three rounds of arrow rain, there was no enemy who could still stand.
After this scene was seen by Sun Baosheng and Taixu, they also gasped, and then the two of them looked at each other and said: "Although I know that there is a powerful archer army under this Chen He, but this is too strong, the wooden shield is directly torn, and the army of 50,000 has not even come out of a bubble, it is gone!" ”
"Yes, 150,000, damn it, didn't the intelligence say that Chen He only had tens of thousands of archers under his command, and there must be 300,000 arrows shot from these three city walls!" Taixu is also very painful, the army of five million, except for 1.2 million is Sun Baosheng's, the rest are his Taixu City's family background, this time he emptied his family to fight Wuyun City, not yet, all the way, the city wall has not been touched, nearly 200,000 people are gone!
"Chen He, this madman, Yunshan Temple is also a madman, how many battle spirits have they supported this Chen He!" So far, no one thinks that Chen He's battle spirit was earned by himself, but that this is the cultivation of Chen He by the Yunshan Temple.
"Forget it, anyway, why are you already prepared, let the ironclad army charge, take down Wuyun City as soon as possible, is it really waiting...!" Speaking of this, he was too empty to continue, as if he felt that the next words were embarrassing.
The second drum has not been completely silent, the third drum sounded, Chen He saw that a soldier with a neat pace appeared in front of him, holding a spear towards the city wall, behind them, there were siege troops carrying ladders, and even archers were pressing on the back, as the siege party, their archers were naturally in a disadvantaged position, condescending, so that the range of the archers under Chen He's command was much farther than that of the other party.
"Chu Xia, the Gong Lan Arrow Array may have dealt with the Iron Armor Army?" Chen He looked at the troops on the opposite side and recognized them at a glance, it was the ironclad army he had encountered in the Tianjiao space before, they were wearing heavy armor, and they could almost ignore the attacks of the archers.
"There is a threat, but the threat is limited, it seems that they have also studied the Lord, and know that the archers under the Lord's command are full of threats, so they specially sent the Ironclad Army to attack the city, so that it is difficult for our archers to threaten them! At the same time, the defense of the ironclad army makes them more threatening in siege warfare, and the only drawback is that they move slowly! Meng He looked at the ironclad army that was still advancing, and talked eloquently.
"Oh, Chu Xia seems to be very confident in dealing with this ironclad army!" When Chen He saw Meng He's posture, he was immediately relieved, and said casually.
"Lord, why are you the defenders of the city, the existence of the ironclad army, the scouts have already come to report, and they have already prepared gifts for them, just look at it for a while!" Meng He said confidently, as a military advisor, how could he miss the enemy's troops, and among the five million troops reported by the scouts, there were one million ironclad troops, which was also one of the biggest factors in the slow march of Taixu City, so he had already thought of a way.
After a long time, the ironclad army finally arrived at the city, and along the way, the archers only cared about shooting with the archers behind, and seemed to have ignored the existence of the ironclad army, the results of the shooting were self-evident, the advantage of range, in the absence of the threat of the siege troops, was used by them to death, paid more than 30,000 casualties, and the archers of Taixu City entered the range.
It's just that they were just about to fight back, but they found that on the opposite city wall, wooden planks were suddenly erected, each of which was nearly three meters high, which was equivalent to pulling the height of the city wall up by three meters at once, this scene made the archers of Taixu City almost collapse, this is too bullying, paid such a big price, and finally could fight back, people erected a curtain wall, and they had to run a long distance to be able to fight back, but the opponent was able to attack them continuously.
After watching the curtain wall erected, Meng He couldn't help but admire: "Lord, this move is really high, if I am the chief general of the archers on the opposite side, I am afraid that I will not dare to continue to advance, because if I continue to advance, it is not a matter of entering the range, but facing more attacks, and even the danger of annihilation!" ”
"Hehe, carving insect skills, if the enemy is carrying rockets, I'm afraid that my wooden wall is also vulnerable, or the opponent has a strong attack power, and the wooden wall can't hold on for long, anyway, it's to deal with such ordinary archers!" Chen He smiled, and was indeed a little satisfied with his wooden wall.
