Chao Xing and Zhen Lingdan personally stood on the top of the city, the soldiers prepared the city defense tools such as rolling stones, gold juice and hot oil, etc., there were return cannons and other things in the city, and the allies outside the city also had them, and it was essential for the two sides to bombard, in fact, when inspecting the city, Zhen Lingdan felt the favor of God, because most of the weapons developed by Fang Qingze were made in Timur, but there was not even a decent artillery in Samarkand, that is to say, Fang Qingze did not give the advanced weapons he developed to the Timurid people,

Regardless of whether Fang Qingze was out of defense against a strong enemy, or loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, or the price was not negotiated, but in short, without the help of these gunpowder weapons, the Ming army, which relied on the strong defense of the city, had the upper hand, otherwise the artillery would be lined up and bombarded for a few hours, and it was estimated that the city of Samarkand would be razed to the ground.

The ladder in the Western Regions is different from the Central Plains, they are a locomotive operation, like a big ballista, when using it, shoot out a four-claw hook hook to hook the city wall, there is an iron chain rope on the hook and then pull the ladder up through the pulley, in the Central Plains, the soldiers will use their bodies to fall on the ladder for the stability of the ladder, and do not let the people above overturn, but the soldiers who fall below the ladder suffer great casualties, and they need to keep replenishing talents, and those who attack the city wall first are rewarded, But no one remembers the stepping stone that fell into the ladder, so it was a dirty job, and now the siege ladder is different, with the weight of the ballista itself, and the pull at the other end of the chain, making the ladder extremely strong,

Such a ladder is very difficult to defend in the Western Regions, because the Western people only know how to shoot arrows and throw stones down, so the final result is to go up to the city to fight hand-to-hand to see who has more soldiers and strong combat effectiveness, which is no different from fighting on the ground, but the side defending the city is like standing on a high slope with a slight advantage of height and low.

The Han people in the territory of the Ming Dynasty are the mainstay, building thousands of years of city walls, fighting thousands of years of tough battles, both offensive and defensive have sufficient experience, today Zhen Lingdan let these Xifan people appreciate the crystallization of the wisdom of the Han people for thousands of years,

The wooden rolling stone was thrown down by the defenders of the Ming army, but soon the soldiers besieging the city found that these things were not like usual, and they lost their effect after smashing, and now these things are stuffed with a hemp rope, and the hemp rope seems to have been soaked in oil and then dried repeatedly, it is difficult to extinguish after ignition, these things hurt many people from top to bottom, and then quickly exploded, and the fragments shot the soldiers who were climbing the ladder,

The people of the West of the oil are also commonly used, but they don't know what the golden juice is, and the hot thing like hot water falls from the sky and pours the soldiers who climb the wall, and then emits a violent stench, once the skin is burned, the pain in the heart is drilled, and the skin is found to have signs of ulceration before the defeat retreats.

Gold juice, that is, people's feces and urine are burned hot, and then poured down from the city, Zhen Lingdan did not enter the life of the soul before he practiced in the Danding line, so there is a Dan character in the name, he added a poison to the gold juice, which can not only aggravate the stench of the gold juice but also speed up the speed of rotting skin, with the high temperature, the festering skin will poison the person who is infected when it touches the feces and urine, and immediately lose its combat effectiveness, even if the wound is treated immediately, it is difficult to heal,

If that's all there is to it, then Boyan Bell and Murong Longteng don't have such a headache, the most uncomfortable thing about Zhen Lingdan is his calm and calm, as well as the well-trained soldiers under him, bows and arrows and other siege troops start to shoot on their backs when they have only one stone's throw away, and then use the rain of arrows to cut off the coherence of the team, each time it is a salvo, and when the enemy begins to climb the wall, the soldiers in the city standing under the city wall also begin to release arrows, still shooting from their backs, and the arrows draw a parabola and fall outside the city to shoot the enemy, And the soldiers on the walls retreated a little and turned into free fire,

The coalition army lost many soldiers with great difficulty, and finally climbed the city wall, they mocked the cowardice of the Ming army, and did not dare to poke out of the city wall with a spear in hand, and stabbed people down, in their impression that an iron army should be like this, but soon they couldn't laugh, the Ming army was fully armed and stood on the city wall with a spear, to be precise, they were not holding a spear, but something similar to a halberd,

The Ming army stood in three columns on the city wall, with a slight gap between them, just enough for the halberd to pierce out, and the archers had retreated behind them and kept shooting dark arrows on their backs, and now there was no need to aim, because the overwhelming crowd was full of enemies, and they would shoot people wherever they shot.

The first two rows of halberd soldiers cooperate with each other to make assassination movements, when one halberd pierces the enemy's body, the other will follow up and push the enemy off the wall, the dead body is another kind of wooden rolling stone, smashing down the enemy soldiers who are still climbing up, the third team does not move and makes the final preparations,

Murong Longteng was annoyed, and Boyan Bell smiled, because Boyan Bell had already tasted Zhen Lingdan's power, if he easily took this fortified city, he would definitely panic and think that he had won the strategy, and the two generals ordered at the same time that the whole army was pressed in according to the echelon form, and also tried to put the coalition army composed of Li and Timurid people, like a tide, surging up the city wall in waves,

The third layer of halberd soldiers is on, they are all tall soldiers, holding high halberds for the first two rows of comrades to protect, so that the enemy can not take advantage of the assassination interval to get close easily, the Ming army with the halberd constructed a layer of cold light, steaming murderous flesh and blood wall, the attack lasted for an hour, and finally because of the superiority of the coalition army, the Ming army was physically weak, the halberd soldiers were finally rushed open, the Ming soldiers on both sides and no one to cover, once the broken formation of the halberd on the city wall is not so free, an inch long and an inch strong, that refers to the battle in a wide area, not on the narrow and crowded city wall, so the coalition army slaughtered the Ming army like a wolf into a flock,

At this time, the ghost came out of the ground, blocking the way of the coalition army, the halberd soldiers of the Ming army retreated along the stone steps of the city road in a panic, although the ghost spirit was able to resist the coalition army, and the coalition army was helpless against them, but after all, the number of ghosts was too small, and the coalition army in the city gathered more and more, and the ghost witch saw that the soldiers climbed the city and were resisted by the ghosts, so they also immediately stepped forward to prepare for a battle.

At this time, the ghosts on the city wall went into the ground and disappeared, and soon appeared under the city wall, and then fought with the ghosts and witches who were coming up, and knocked down the ladder and damaged the ballista during the fight, and the allies on the city lost their way to retreat, and the follow-up troops could not follow up on the city, and they were panicked for a while, and when they were at a loss, the sound of iron armor sounded from above the city road, and a team of iron armor soldiers armed to the teeth slowly walked up,
