Chapter 21: The Battle of the Siege of Donglai City{4}

The fierce battle at the head of Donglai City has reached Zhongniu, and more than 30 nest cars and more than 200 siege ladders have leaned against the city wall. The huge slab in front of the platform at the top of the nest car fell and hit the city, forming an air bridge.

Dozens of bandit soldiers brandished their swords and rushed towards the city! Behind them, a steady stream of bandit soldiers climbing up the stairs was emerging......

After a morning of fierce fighting, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and the city was full of dead bodies. Wang Bo has pressed the remaining bandit army on all fronts, and the strength has an absolute advantage! They gradually began to gain the upper hand, and hundreds of bandit soldiers had already rushed to the top of the city, fighting with the Allied soldiers on the top of the city, and the situation became critical!

"General, the east of the city is almost unbearable!" A Confederate soldier rushed to report!

"You come with me!"

Su Shang led five hundred Allied soldiers to the east of the city. There are also 20 trebuchets in the east of the city, mainly for the family's private soldiers and the common people. Wang Bo's bandit army has added ten nest cars and dozens of siege ladders here, and hundreds of bandit soldiers have already killed the city!

After all, the people who helped the war had not undergone much training, and they were exhausted after two days of defending the city! When facing the bandit soldiers, facing the bloody battles, and facing the corpses of one companion after another, they began to be frightened back by death and began to panic! Thousands of people helping the war are in a state of chaos, and their confusion has also affected the operations of the Allied soldiers!

"Marshal, let these people go down!"

The defender in the east of the city is Qilang Zhang Lihong, and when he saw Su Shang leading the army to help, he was so anxious that he shouted: "It's not that I can't resist!" These people are here to influence our war! ”

Su Shang also saw it on the horse! The gap is mainly in the two nest cars, which are crowded with more than 2,000 people to help the war, the Allied soldiers can't get through, and the people who help the war can't resist, so that the enemy army is constantly pouring in, and the trebuchet can't play a role at this time!

"Help the people of the war to withdraw to the inner city!"

Su Shang gave the order to help the people retreat, and thousands of people retreated to the inner city like a tide! The drawbridge was crowded with people rushing to run, and one citizen was squeezed off the drawbridge while running, screaming and falling into the city!

With the withdrawal of thousands of people who helped the war, the outer city suddenly became empty! Zhang Lihong shouted, led hundreds of Allied soldiers to reorganize the formation, and counterattacked the bandit army that rushed to the city!

Next to the dense group of soldiers, Su Shang saw another student, Hachiro zhāngchāng. zhāngchāng was sweating profusely, swinging a sledgehammer and smashing at the bandit soldiers, where the sledgehammer passed, the bandit soldiers were blurred in flesh and blood, and the casualties were tragic!

At this time, a bandit general on the battlements held a spear in his hand and silently stabbed zhāngchāng in the back! Su Shang immediately picked up his bow and arrows.

zhāngchāng had already discovered that there was a sneak attack behind him, and he wanted to turn around, but it was too late. At this critical moment, Su Shang shot an arrow, hit the head of the bandit general, and fell down the city screaming!

At the same time, zhāngchāng felt a tingling pain in his right thigh, and he stumbled and almost stood unsteadily! "Boom!" A spear slashed diagonally through his thigh and fell to the ground!

It turned out that Su Shang's arrow was still a little slower. Although he had already dodged the fatal spear, the spear that had already been pierced also slashed diagonally towards zhāngchāng's right thigh as the bandit general fell! zhāngchāng is still seriously injured!

At this time, two Confederate soldiers beside him were stabbed to death by bandit spears. zhāngchāng was furious, roared wildly, dragged his injured thigh and swung a sledgehammer at the bandit soldiers!

The people on the other side of the gap have been withdrawn, and Su Shang led hundreds of allied soldiers to kill the gap with a column of war horses! The Allied forces fought in a very disciplined manner and cooperated tacitly. Three hundred Alliance soldiers outflanked and killed from both sides, and two hundred Alliance soldiers in the middle drew their bows and released arrows! For a while, arrows rained down, and the bandit soldiers who rushed up were shot down one after another!

"Kill them back!"

Su Shang's voice was already hoarse, and he urged the war horse to wield the overlord halberd and lead the Allied soldiers to kill the enemy bravely! Inspired by him, hundreds of Confederate soldiers were demoralized, slaughtered the dead of the enemy all over the place, retreated one after another, and retreated back to the nest!

"Marshal, use fire oil! Burn the nest cart and siege ladder! Zhang Lihong suggested loudly!

Fire oil, this is the killer weapon prepared by Su Shang, there are a total of five hundred barrels! Actually, it's not fierce fire oil, but pine resin oil! Although Su Shang wanted the fierce fire oil very much, he also knew that there was a large amount of fierce fire oil under Donglai County, after all, Donglai County was the victory oil field area of the dream world. But alas, there is no way to mine them in this day and age!

However, Su Shang has found an alternative, and that is pine resin! Although pine resin is not as good as fierce fire oil, it is also a very good flammable substance, and it is easy to obtain in this era! There are many tall pine trees in the forest outside Donglai City, and the only disadvantage is that people in this era have not yet known how to collect pine resin!

In order to collect pine resin, he secretly recruited and trained a lot of Donglai people to collect it, and classified a pine forest outside Donglai City as a military restricted area, and often collected pine resin by the way during military field training! However, after all, the time is still short, and only 500 barrels of pine resin have been collected for the time being!

There are very few pine resins, and he intends to use them at critical moments! Su Shang's gaze swept to the various city heads of Donglai City, and all the siege tools had been mounted by the bandit army on the city heads, with a total of more than 30 nest cars and more than 200 siege ladders! Bandit soldiers are constantly pouring up through siege tools, and quite a few bandit soldiers have already appeared on the city!

Su Shang looked at the allied soldiers everywhere in the city, the soldiers swung their knives and stabbed spears, slashed left and right, and the bandits were suppressed to death! But he could see that as the bandit soldiers continued to climb up, the Allied soldiers would soon be unable to resist! After all, the number of Confederate soldiers is too small!

"Pass on my military order, order the Agni Battalion to attack immediately, and be sure to burn all the siege tools of the bandit army!"

Su Shang made a decision in an instant. At this time, he remembered the zhāngchāng with an injury to his thigh! The situation was critical just now, and it was too late for someone to send him down for treatment. His gaze turned to the place where zhāngchāng had just been!

zhāngchāng is still there, the bandit soldiers around him have been knocked down by him, the sledgehammer is erected on the ground, and the right arm is against the handle of the sledgehammer, supporting the crumbling body!

"Hurry up and send General Zhang and the seriously injured soldiers down for treatment!" Su Shang immediately commanded the soldiers around him......

Hearing Su Shang's order, the flag officer next to him immediately waved the flag and issued a flag!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! The war drums of the transfer of troops sounded again, and more than a thousand soldiers of the Flame Battalion, carrying large barrels in pairs, ran out of the inner city, quickly crossed the suspension bridge, and ran to various targets at the head of Donglai City!

The vat is filled with heated, melted pine oil. The soldiers of the Flame Battalion carried large wooden barrels, one carrying a pair of bows and arrows on his shoulder, all of which were wrapped in oilcloths, and one carrying a bamboo tube-like object! They carried the vats, rushed left and right, and flexibly dodged all kinds of attacks from the bandit soldiers along the way, each time they flashed, running fast all the way towards their respective targets!

The bamboo-like item is called spraying qiāng, which was designed by Su Shang based on a tool in that dream! In his dreams, Su Shang often went to his grandfather's house in the countryside to play, and often helped his grandfather when he was busy farming, so Su Shang was very familiar with the farming tools of some farmers and uncles! This spray qiāng is the spray cartridge that the farmer uncle used to fight pesticides! The structure of the spray cartridge is simple, and the material is also very easy! A slender bamboo tube, a wooden pole, and a strip of cloth can be made!

Donglai City, west of the South Gate City, a huge nest car, and a wooden plank bridge leaning firmly against the city! More than a dozen bandit soldiers crossed the wooden plank bridge and slashed at the Confederate soldiers on the battlements, raising qiāng and stabbing violently! They were Wang Bo's guards, so fierce that the Allied soldiers couldn't resist them for a while, and they were defeated and retreated!

San Lang Wang Zhongyi quickly brought dozens of soldiers to support him! Wang Zhongyi's strength is incomparable, and a black sharp gold qiāng flies up and down, terrifying, and the bandit soldiers fell one after another where the qiāng tip passed!

Under his leadership, dozens of Allied soldiers rushed forward, stabbing straight and slashing with large knives, and the bandit soldiers who crossed the wooden plank bridge all fell in the blink of an eye! The bandit soldiers were once again pinned down on the nest car platform!

About twenty paces from the nest car, a group of Agni Battalion soldiers lowered the barrels. One quickly pulls out the spray qiāng from the back, inserts one end of it into the barrel, holds the spray qiāng with the left hand, and slowly pulls the spray qiāng wooden pole outward with the right hand. Then, he pointed the end of the spray qiāng at the nest car, and pushed the wooden pole with his right hand, and a piece of slightly atomized liquid sprayed towards the nest car at high speed! In an instant, the entire nest car platform was enveloped, and the bandit soldiers on the platform were sprinkled all over their bodies!

Another soldier quickly took an arrow from the quiver, lit the tarpaulin from the arrow with flint, and stuck it in the battlement. With his backhand, he took the strong bow from his shoulder, drew another arrow and lit it on the tarpaulin. When he saw the soldier spraying the liquid with qiāng, he quickly set up an arrow and bent his bow, and with a whoosh of the arrow, the arrow shot towards the liquid spraying over the nest car!

The arrow was accurately nailed to the nest car, and the nest car ignited a raging fire with a "boom"! Dozens of bandit soldiers were also instantly ignited by the fire! A terrible cry came from the fire, and the bandit soldiers slammed in all directions, tumbling and falling off the platform!

Similar scenes continue to occur in various places in the city of Donglai. In a short period of time, all the siege tools of the bandit army leaning against the city wall were ignited, and the raging fire engulfed the bandit soldiers who had not had time to evacuate in an instant......

"Order the army to abandon the siege and withdraw to the camp!"

Outside the south gate, Wang Bo, whose face was gloomy and as black as ink, finally gave the order to withdraw his troops! He constantly scanned the raging fires burning all over the city wall, and the battlefield had the upper hand before a pillar of incense, but after a pillar of incense, it was completely reversed! Why, he was a little puzzled!

Wang Bo was very unwilling, but he knew that he had failed! With no food and grass, countless soldiers killed and wounded, and the siege tools burned to the ground, he never had a chance to organize another attack!

"General Sun, how is that Zhao San preparing?" Wang Bo turned his head and asked Sun Xuanya behind him!

"There hasn't been a notice from the city yet, so it's probably not ready yet!"

"Humph! It's not that we're not ready, it's probably waiting for us and the allies to lose both! Let Zhao San urge it! Wang Bo was very dissatisfied with Zhao San's attitude, but he couldn't help it! Now Zhao San is his last hope for entering Donglai City......
