"Report, the Tartars have returned to the camp in Datong Province."

"Got it."

In order to confirm whether Lin Dan Khan had really withdrawn from the army, Wang Zezhi ordered the sentry to confirm it repeatedly.

At midnight, the sentinel who had gone out to inquire about information returned.

Subsequently, Wang Zezhi ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and mend the Tartars who had been on the battlefield for a while.

Their bodies were moved to a trench and buried on the spot.

Because there was no armor on the battlements, hundreds of sergeants were shot by the Tartars' bows and arrows, and the middle of them were either seriously injured or died on the spot.

Therefore, that night, Wang Zezhi ordered the soldiers to put guards on the battlements of the city wall, either planks or shields, in short, they must be protected.

In addition, all the rolling stones and rafts brought by the follow-up troops were moved to the city wall to throw the tartars that ascended the city.

Although a lot of trenches were dug outside the fort, Wang Zezhi found that the Tartar war horses could easily jump over, and after careful consideration, he decided to cut down trees on the spot overnight to make a rejection horse.

With these rejection horses, no matter how powerful the Tartar cavalry is, they can't leap over, and when the time comes, they will slow down their momentum and can't rush to the bottom of the fortress at the first time, and it is time for firecrackers and bows and arrows to be powerful.

Of course, the thistle terrestris still has to be released, and the vanguard cavalry of the Tartars suffered heavy losses when they stepped on the thistle, if it weren't for the too many Tartar cavalry, they might not be able to rush over.

After these arrangements, the equipment brought by Wang Zezhi was basically used up.

Wang Zezhi stipulated that all the soldiers should not rely on or stand under the city wall for a long time, so as to prevent them from falling asleep.

Of course, Wang Zezhi did not say that he would not let them sleep, but divided them into three waves and took turns to rest.

Wang Zezhi slept for two hours, suddenly opened his eyes, got up and walked to the city.

His spirit collapsed, and he always felt that a tartar had touched it and attacked at night.

"Cheer up, don't fall asleep, or the tartar will touch it, and you will be able to sleep here forever." Wang Zezhi looked at the few sergeants who were dozing off and shouted loudly.

"Yes." The sergeants stood up straight.

In fact, Wang Zezhi thought too much, the Tartar station in Datong Mansion was fifty miles away from here, and if the attack was not something that could be attacked in a while, it was very calm that night, and none of the Tartars touched it and attacked at night.

After dawn, Lin Dan Khan actually gave up the attack on Datong Mansion and led tens of thousands of troops to Xi'an Fort.

Lin Dan Khan was bent on recovering the Yuan Dynasty, and he believed in the principle that the outside must first be secured, and in his opinion, the Tatars in the Xi'an Fort must be exterminated.

The Tartars first sent a troop of cavalry to drag around some of the sleek men, the sergeants who had been wounded by arrows yesterday when they had followed Mowmu to lure Lin Dan Khan.

Wang Zezhi looked at this scene, and the corners of his eyes jumped wildly.

The Tartars did not retreat until they dragged the sergeants until they were blood-stained and no longer humanoid.

The Tartars first laid wooden bridges on the trenches, and then dozens of Tartars pushed the huge Lu bus forward slowly.

Lu bus, the car starts several floors, hides soldiers inside, hides leather outside, can be pushed to the city by surprise, because it is the same height as the city, can directly climb over the city wall, and engage the enemy.

Behind the Lu bus, there are siege ladders, siege ballistas, trebuchets, and a small number of tiger squat cannons.

The Tartars changed the style of yesterday's cavalry rush and began to advance steadily towards Xi'an Fort.

Wang Zezhi looked at this situation, his breathing was short, and his nervous lips were trembling.

No wonder Lin Dan Khan was able to sweep through the right-wing Mongolia, with these weapons at his disposal, not to mention a small Xi'an Fort, even the city of Datong Mansion could be attacked.

"Quick, carrier pigeon, quickly send a message to Lord Geng and ask for support."

Wang Zezhi took a deep breath, calmed down and said to the sergeant under his command.

"Yes."

The sergeant received the order and sent the message.

The Tartars were on the offensive steadily, advancing continuously. absolutely

Where Lu's bus passed, all the arrangements made last night had lost their effect.

The siege ladder followed closely behind Lu's chariot, and the ballista and trebuchet were also about to reach the attack range.

This kind of slowly oppressive array momentum actually gave Wang Zezhi an unshakable feeling, his heart beat wildly, looking at the panicked soldiers on the city wall, he laughed.

"It's just a big scar when the head falls out, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

The soldiers listened to the order, and killing a Tartar was counted as three military merits, and the reward was thirty taels of silver.

As long as you survive this battle, no matter whether your military merits are enough or not, Lao Tzu will marry your mother-in-law. ”

"Hahaha... What the adults said was that they would survive and marry our mother-in-law. Ah Niu laughed loudly with Wang Zezhi and echoed.

"Marry a mother-in-law, hahaha..."

The other sergeants were not so scared when they saw this, military merits, these are all military merits, one Tartar is worth three military merits, where to get so many military merits in peacetime.

At this moment, the soldiers on the city wall looked at the dense Tartars under the city, and their breathing gradually became heavy.

If they were afraid before, now they are longing, longing for military merit.

Only by fighting can they have military merits, and only with military merits can they have rewards.

"Listen to the Tatarnu in the city, now give you ten breaths of time, open the door and surrender within ten breaths, the Khan spares you from dying, otherwise there will be no chickens and dogs left in the fort, you have to think clearly, lest you regret it after the city is broken."

The Tartar, who was hiding behind Lü's bus, shouted loudly in Mongolian, but Wang Zezhi didn't understand and called for Tuomu to come over and translate.

After hearing this, Wang Zezhi immediately ordered the sergeants to attack the wheels of Lu's bus, as long as the wheels collapsed, the car could not be pushed.

Otherwise, if the Lu bus does not fall, this battle will not be fought at all.

Seeing that the Lu bus was about to reach the range of the attack, Wang Zezhi shouted: "Open the cannon." ”

The cannon hit the wheels of Lu's bus, and the body of the car was crooked, and it was impossible to move forward.

"Woo woo woo~"

The siege horns of the Tartars sounded, and the Tartars launched shield carts and trench carts, and launched an attack on Xi'an Fort without fear of death.

"Reload your ammunition! Fire Bolt Launch! Bow and arrow launch! ”

Three-eyed guns, shotguns, and rumi guns took turns to shoot, and the Tartars were chubby and frantically charged towards the fort.

While these foot soldiers charged, catapults and ballistas attacked the walls.

Although wooden planks and wooden shields had been arranged on the city walls, the attack of catapults and ballistas was too fierce, and it was difficult to defend even with these armor.

Hundreds of soldiers on the city wall were killed on the spot, and for a while there was a constant wail on the city wall.

"Hidden!" Wang Zezhi glanced outside the city, and the Tartar archers took advantage of this gap to start bending their bows and arrows, and launched an attack on the soldiers in the city.

The sergeants on the walls of the city took refuge behind the walls, or behind the armor that had been set up overnight.

"Boom~Dangdang~"

The rain of arrows was blocked by the armor that had been set up last night, and only a small number of sergeants were killed and wounded in the places that were pierced and smashed by crossbows and stone throws.

"Gada!"

An unusual voice came, Wang Zezhi looked at the city wall, and suddenly knew that the siege ladder of the Tartars had come up.

"Halberd and shield soldiers, sword and shield soldiers prepare! Fire Bolt Attack! ”

Wang Zezhi shouted, picked up the Lu Mi gun behind him and pointed it at the city.

"Papapa~"

The sergeants on the city wall reacted and raised their guns and fired.

However, there were too many Tartars, and with just one round of shooting, they climbed the city wall.
