Chapter 399: The Qin Army's Heavy Attack

There is also the Qin army hoplites who paralyzed and knocked down the hoplites on their side, these Jin army lightly armed auxiliaries carried one by a few people, grabbed the limbs, and threw them directly down the city like throwing stones, and smashed a large piece again, fighting, but there were five or six hundred Qin army hoplites rushed to the city, and quickly threw them down, except for relying on broadswords and heavy swords to kill and wound more than 100 Jin infantry and militia, no one could stand at the head of the city.

Liang Cheng's teeth were gritted, and he watched the hoplites on his side keep rushing up to the city, and kept throwing people down like throwing sandbags, and the stones thrown down by the city head like raindrops, the golden soup that fell, and the bodies of those hoplites, kept smashing the phalanx under the city, and there were no less than five hundred people who were smashed and injured like this, and even the ironclad infantry phalanx, which was still in strict shape and motionless like a mountain half an hour ago, began to appear slightly chaotic.

Liang Yun sighed: "Big brother, it seems that the defense of the city head is tighter than we imagined, what should we do now, withdraw first and then reorganize?" ”

Liang Cheng said sharply: "No, send more manpower to maintain the intensity of the attack, let the archers continue to shoot arrows, shoot at me regardless of the enemy, and don't be idle in the back, give me the fucking one, use the claw hook, rope to go up to the city, it's good to go up to one more, fast!" ”

Arrows flew sideways, screams and muffled snorts came and went, more and more Qin soldiers rushed to the city, the top shield phalanx of the hoplites under the city had dispersed, and almost all the hoplites began to use various ladders to climb the city.

And beside them, the lightly armed Qin soldiers shouted the trumpet, threw hundreds of claw hooks onto the city, tightly hooked the battlements, and they went up, while stepping on the city wall with their feet, while stepping upward, from time to time the Jin army at the head of the city cut these ropes with knives, turning these Qin soldiers who kicked the city into trapeze at once, and then had a close contact with the ground, but there were still more than 300 light infantry and more than 100 hoplites rushed to the city and started a melee with the Jin defenders.

There are few Jin militia members who can continue to throw stones or dead people to the city, and they have also picked up the weapons at hand, whether they are swords or spears, and fought with more and more enemy troops in the city.

The arrows under the city caused a huge damage to the lightly armed soldiers at the head of the city, from time to time some people screamed and fell, and the wounded rolled on the ground at the same time, and from time to time they would trip over a few guys who were catching and fighting, many people scuffled together, hugged and fell off the city wall, or pinched each other's necks, and so on, the casualties at the head of the city increased in a straight line, and the collision of steel and the screams of the dead echoed in the air of the entire southern city.

Xu Yuanlang's brows were deeply locked, although he was in this wall, but the situation at the head of the city, he was clear, he gritted his teeth, looked at the Yan Zhi beside him, and said: "Yan Zhi, the city head is a little tight, do you want to use a catapult to attack now?" ”

Zhi Yanzhi smiled slightly and shook his head: "Isn't it good now?" The enemy began to increase investment, the light infantry also went up, and the archers also shot regardless of whether they were enemies or enemies. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Yuanlang looked at the more than 10,000 elite hoplites behind Liang Cheng two miles away, and muttered: "Liang Cheng, will you press this main force?" ”

Liang Cheng's brows were also deeply locked, more and more of his own infantry attacked the city, but the Jin army still stubbornly persisted, shouting and killing shook the heavens and the earth, and the war drums inside and outside the city were louder and louder, Wang Yong gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Dashuai, the last general is willing to take his headquarters to reinforce and attack the city." ”

Liang Yun also said: "Big brother, little brother is also willing to rush up, give an order!" ”

Liang Cheng hesitated for a moment and said, "However, if the main force of the Chinese army is 10,000 people now, what if the enemy army has something like a catapult or a heavy crossbow machine to kill and injure intensively?" ”

Liang Yun laughed: "Big brother is really worried, if they have this thing, now they are fighting like this, they would have used it a long time ago, but they would rather keep increasing their troops, filling with human lives, and not having a stone thrower throw out stones, this can only mean that they don't have this thing, Liu Jinu is in a hurry, how can he have time to make a siege weapon like a catapult, big brother, now he can capture it in just one breath, if he doesn't increase his troops, I'm afraid that the brothers who attacked the city will give up their efforts." ”

Liang Cheng's eyes flashed, and he was thinking, but he heard a rapid sound of bangzi in the direction of the city, and the sound of a ring of armor leaves, from the city tower on one side, rushed out more than two hundred heavy armored and iron helmet Jin army heavy soldiers, all tall and large, holding two-handed giant axes or sledgehammers, heavier than the weapons in the hands of ordinary soldiers, cut directly when they saw people, dozens of Qin army light infantry who rushed to the city, their leather armor and shields, in front of these sharp axes and big knives, like paper paste, Some people directly cut people with armor into two pieces, and the scene suddenly became bloody and ferocious.

And the leader of these strong men is a strong man in his twenties, who is tall and big, is it Liu Yu? He is full of steel armor, particularly conspicuous, holding a hundred refining iron knives, tiger and tiger, when he encounters a lightly armed Qin soldier, it is a knife and two sections, and when he encounters a heavy infantry, he is knocked down with the back of a knife, and the guards on the left and right rush up, hammer and stick together, smash it into flesh and mud, and the defense line of the city head that was once a little shaken gave this new force a rush, more than 200 Qin infantry were either killed or wounded, and fell into the city like raindrops, even those claws hooked the cloud ladder, and also cut down seven or eight parts.

Wang Yong was so anxious that he slapped his thigh: "Grandma is a bear, Liu Jinu, this kid has gone into battle with his own troops, Dashuai, the Jin army really has no strength, now I want the general to come to the top in person, please give me five hundred people, no, three hundred people, I will definitely attack the city and take down Liu Yu's head with my own hands!" ”

Liang Cheng's eyes flashed coldly, and he shook his head: "You're right, they have no other tricks, the general personally rushed to kill, it has come to the last moment, it seems that the strength of the Jin army was all worn out when the flying stones attacked the city in front, Xu Yuanxi let Liu Yu defend the city here, but did not transfer the troops and horses of the headquarters to help, I think this Jin army is also full of contradictions, the order, the 10,000 ironclad infantry of the Chinese army are all pressed, and I will rush down this southern city!" ”
