Chapter 308: Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals
The city was full of dust and smoke, and the ears were full of buzzing sounds, that is, the people around them were shouting and couldn't hear anything, and some Goguryeo soldiers were blown up stupidly, standing at a loss, some without arms, some without thighs and just standing there in a daze, their nostrils and ears were covered with blood, which was very terrifying.
The soldiers of the Tang Army under the city wall saw that the city gate had collapsed, and the entire city gate was a large part of the surrounding city wall, and they all let out a shocking cheer, changing the decadent momentum when they left the camp this morning, and when Zhang Jian gave an order, everyone rushed towards Liaodong City like a tiger coming down the mountain.
But this charge was completely different from the previous ones, instead of a group of people pushing ladders and siege engines at the front, all the Tang troops rushed in the direction of the bombed city gate.
The loud sound also alarmed the other defenders in Liaodong City, they followed the sound to the city wall, and saw that the people on the original city head had become confused, all of them lost their souls, although they didn't know what was going on, but the military situation was urgent, and they hurriedly took over the defense of the city.
They watched the dense Tang army getting closer and closer, and after seeing that they were about to approach the range of the bow and arrow, the general of the Goguryeo defenders on the city wall waved his sword, and all the defenders raised their bows to the sky, drawing their bows and preparing to fire.
But at this time, the formation of the Tang army changed, and all the teams were divided to both sides, and then a group of tall and burly strong men wearing black iron armor came out of the crowd, and the number was only more than a thousand. After the group of big men rushed out of the crowd, probably because the armor was too heavy, their speed slowed down, and they seemed to be walking slowly. The Goguryeo defenders who were preparing to draw their bows were stagnant at the same time, what kind of operation was this? Moreover, the generals of the Goguryeo garrison found that these people did not have spears or swords or other weapons in their hands, but only a torch in their hands, and each of them carried a pocket on the front and back, and the pocket seemed to be full of things.
Seeing where they were getting closer and closer to the collapsed city gate, the defending generals waved their hands, only to hear a sharp bowstring sound, and after a dense rain of arrows shot towards more than a thousand people, only to hear the sound of clanging in front of them, and the Goguryeo defenders' eyes widened when they saw their results.
It was completely different from what they imagined, that round of dense arrow rain should have shot the Tang army on the side, but the thousand Tang troops did not even fall, did not even stop their footsteps, and continued to walk towards the city gate.
The defenders of Goguryeo immediately fired two more rounds of arrows, but as before, not a single one fell to the ground. At this time, these people were only thirty steps away from the city wall, and the Goguryeo defenders saw clearly that the armor on this group of Tang troops was not the fish scale armor and Mingguang armor that the Tang army normally wears now, but a completely different kind of iron armor, as if the whole person was wrapped in a complete iron plate, and even the shoes were made of whole pieces of iron. The whole person is tightly protected, that is, there is a gap in the eyes, as long as the head is lowered when shooting, the lethality of the bow and arrow on the city wall will not harm them at all.
The defenders at the head of the city are now a little panicked, people have some fear of the unknown, after so many sieges, the Tang army's actions today are completely beyond their cognition, where is the inexplicable city gate collapsed, and then such a group of strange people wrapped in iron sheets rushed towards them, and they attacked us with torches?
The answer didn't make the Goguryeo people wait long. When the more than 1,000 Tang troops braved the dense rain of arrows and rushed to the city wall, they looked at the queue that had been lined up neatly and blocked the collapsed city gate with a spear array. They paused, and then collectively took out a black guy from their arms, and at the same time put the torch in their hands to a lead on the black bump, only to see the fire flash, the lead was lit with a snort, and the more than 1,000 people threw the black bump in their hands at the same time towards the very crowded Goguryeo defenders arranged at the city gate.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
An earth-shattering explosion sounded, the Goguryeo defenders who were crowded on the city wall did not expect that there would be such a large-scale weapons of destruction, they stood densely, all of them were shrouded in the explosion range, after a violent explosion, the wind blew away the black smoke of the explosion, and I saw that the defender soldiers who were still waiting on the city wall just now were lying on the ground, only to hear the screams and wails louder, on the ground, on the mound, and some people can see stumps and broken arms on their heads and bodies, The air was filled with the smell of heavy gunpowder, interspersed with the smell of burnt human flesh and skin, and in the blink of an eye, the head of Liaodong City became like hell, which was miserable.
As soon as the explosion sounded, the guards at the head of the city were shielded by the guards around him, and because the place where he was fighting was relatively far, he was not injured. But seeing the miserable situation like an infernal hell after the explosion, he was so frightened that he couldn't speak, his face suddenly turned pale, and he trembled involuntarily from hand to foot, this black bump has such a great power, what is this? Suddenly, a question came to his mind: "Where did Jiang Xianren go?" How can you not see him in such a big movement? ”
When the Goguryeo defenders were still shocked, the Tang army was not idle. They took out another black bump from their arms, lit it together, and threw it in a crowded place.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
There was another earth-shattering explosion, and grenades blew up again, and the defenders on the walls cried wolf. After the two rounds of grenades exploded, the military hearts of the soldiers defending Liaodong City suddenly turmoil, and some of the timid ones immediately collapsed.
The soldiers of Goguryeo who fought face-to-face were not afraid, but they fell to the ground in pieces before they could touch anyone, and the weapons that emitted loud noises and fire and smoke were not all possessed by the gods in the legends. Could it be that those invulnerable guys are heavenly soldiers, otherwise why haven't you seen them before?
The Goguryeo guard general is also a very decisive general, and after he lost his mind for a short time, he knew in his heart that no matter what the black bump that exploded in the Tang Army was, he must gather the crowd to counterattack now, otherwise when those invulnerable guys go to the city, today's Liaodong City will definitely not be guaranteed.
"Everyone attacks freely, and all weapons are directed towards that group of Tang troops! All weapons are headed at them! Stone! Rolling wood! Use all the oil you can, and by the way, use the oil! Burn them all to death in that tin sheet! "The guard gave the order desperately, and he had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he found a way to crack these plates in an instant.
But it was too late, and the Goguryeo defenders on the city wall were desperately running in all directions, completely out of order, and the defenders shouted desperately to try to gather them, but in vain, another black grenade flew up the city.
