Chapter 151: The Battle of Iron Dragon City (5)
"Ready, put!"
After deliberately shortening the lead, a large number of auxiliaries quickly threw the burning earth-shattering thunder from the city. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
"Bang γγγγγγ"
At the three city walls, a total of nearly 1,900 earth-shattering thunderbolts were thrown, but only more than 1,000 explosions sounded, and the rest were extinguished by the heavy rain.
Rao, more than 1,000 27-kilogram earth-shattering thunders containing 12 kilograms of granular black powder still caused amazing damage to the people in the city.
In the explosion that shook the eardrums, at least more than 4,000 people, along with the siege ladders they carried, were torn apart and flesh and blood were scattered.
Chen Zilong, who was standing at the head of the city, felt that the city wall under his feet was shaking violently, and it was difficult to stand firmly, but fortunately he climbed the battlement with his hands in time to prevent himself from falling off the city wall.
At this time, he felt a round thing stick on his face, with a snap.
Chen Zilong subconsciously wiped it with his hand, and when he looked at it, it was a human eyeball, still beating one drum after another.
A violent nausea immediately flooded from Chen Zilong's stomach, and he couldn't control it anymore, lying on the city wall and vomiting loudly.
The rapid death on a large scale caused by the intense terror was so terrible that the remaining people quickly collapsed, and Rao was the rogue soldiers who were in the back of the battle frantically slashed and slashed, and they could no longer resist the footsteps of the people scattering.
They wailed and frantically fled back from the improvised pontoon, throwing the rogue formations blocking behind them into chaos.
At this chaotic moment, the stone thrower and the tiger squat cannon on Li Xiaojun's wall roared together.
Like a shrapnel flying like a god of death, the huge earth-shattering thunder that exploded continuously caused at least nearly 2,000 civilians and more than 1,000 rogues to be killed or injured.
"Kill the people who stand in your way, quickly cross the bridge, and continue the attack!" Zhang Xianzhong drew his sword and roared, his face full of hideousness.
He knew that he had reached a critical period now, and now that the people had consumed a considerable amount of Li Xiao's firearms and ammunition for themselves, if he did not seize the opportunity to continue the attack, the sacrifices in front would be meaningless.
"Rush!"
"Kill!"
The rogues who frantically slaughtered the fleeing people, all with blood-red eyes, shouted loudly, continued to carry the siege ladder, and continued to attack the city wall.
More than 1,000 rogues carried siege ladders, approaching the three city walls, and the city head shouted again, and more than 1,600 earth-shattering thunderbolts rolled down.
"Bang γγγγγγ"
More than 800 earth-shattering thunderbolts exploded almost simultaneously.
The sound of explosions beyond the limit of the human ear sounded continuously, and Li Xiao's soldiers, who were bleeding from almost everyone's ears, clearly saw that in the dazzling bright fire under the city, fragments were splashed, and a large area of burning coke was blown apart, and it was black and scorched. The pungent whistle smoke mixed with the disgusting smell of human internal organs made the stomach of every soldier defending the city cramp.
More than 1,000 rogues were killed at once.
Seeing that the convection of the convection was so effective and thorough, Li Xiao felt a strong shadow in his heart.
That is, he found that these besieging rogues deliberately kept a long distance from the team of rogues behind, so that although Li Xiaojun threw down many earth-shattering thunders, each time he killed and injured the rogues, only this part of the siege under the city.
It can be seen that the rogues are also quite cunning in their operations, and when the captives have collapsed, they ordered the old and weak of the newly annexed army to carry ladders to attack the city, and deliberately keep a distance from the rogue brigade behind, so as to achieve the goal of completely consuming Li Xiaojun's earth-shaking thunder firearms.
The rogues attacked like this twice, and the number of people carrying the ladder became smaller and smaller, and Li Xiaojun threw more than 3,000 earth-shattering thunderbolts, but only killed more than 2,000 rogues.
"Stop throwing the earth-shattering thunder, let the rogues come forward to attack, and prepare for the defense of the city walls." When he saw that the total number of earth-shaking thunders was less than 2,000 left, Li Xiao decisively ordered that all places stop throwing sky-shaking thunders.
Li Xiaojun, who saw the head of the city, stopped throwing earth-shattering thunder one after another, and Zhang Xianzhong, who saw it from afar, had an ecstatic expression, and he shouted the order: "Ming Gouzi's firearms have been exhausted, pass on the order of the king, the whole army will attack quickly, capture the city wall as soon as possible, if you take the Iron Dragon City, you will not seal the sword for a week, and the children of the wealth and silk in the city will be taken by Ren Er!" β
Zhang Xianzhong's military order was like a stimulant injection for the rogue who was just showing fatigue, and they roared frantically, strode across the pontoon bridge, and accelerated towards the three city walls.
"Clickγγγγγγ
Soon, rows of siege ladders leaned against the city wall, and the hooks on the siege ladders immediately clamped the battlements of the city wall, and a large stream of rogues, like ants, quickly climbed upward.
At this time, on the battlements of the three walls of the Iron Dragon City, there was a sound of hinges sliding, and the ladder hammers made of thick wood suddenly rolled down from the top of the battlements, and then smashed towards the siege ladder that had been erected in a sideways way!
Chen Zilong, who vomited his stomach and barely stood up, saw that one by one, the thick wooden hammer that took about two people to hug together, one end was tied with a hinge, and the other end was smashed sideways in the center of a siege wooden ladder, only to hear a muffled click, the heavy and wide siege ladder was smashed into two sections, and the rogue soldiers who were climbing on it fell from the siege ladder screaming like scattered ants.
Li Xiaojun's fierce counterattack only broke 8 siege ladders in an instant, and caused more than 400 rogue soldiers to be killed and wounded.
However, as soon as these siege ladders were smashed, new siege ladders were immediately carried over to fill the vacant positions just now.
Soon, there were rogues who climbed up to the top of the city, and the brutal hand-to-hand combat began immediately.
Zhang Xianzhong saw from afar that at the entrance of the four long ladders leaning up, there were seven or eight large shields in each place, with the head of the long ladder as the center of the circle, surrounded by a semi-circular arc, and then leaned against the defensive wall.
One after another, the 4-meter stainless steel spear stabbed out one after another, stabbing through the heads, necks, **** and other fatal parts of the rebels who had just climbed onto the defensive wall and had not had time to catch their breath.
One after another, they either fell to their deaths or screamed and fell from the 15-metre-high walls, never to be seen alive.
At the three city walls, it quickly became a flesh mill and a human Shura field.
In the continuous screams, a large number of rogues were stabbed to death, and some corpses were planted upside down and hung on long wooden ladders, making it more difficult for the rogue soldiers behind to attack.
Seeing one rogue after another, he climbed the city wall with difficulty, and quickly died under Li Xiaojun's 4-meter spears that flew like dragons. The generals Zhang Xianzhong, Wang Shangli, Feng Shuangli and others all had sharp expressions on their faces, and they were not moved by the tragic scene in front of them.
Ci is not in charge of the soldiers, these subordinates who climb the ladder to attack are just a pile of chips in their own hands, and the ultimate use of the chips is to exchange and consume in order to seek greater benefits for themselves.
Although the purpose of this battle is to rescue Li Dingguo's department, everyone knows that the real purpose is to conquer this majestic city, and the countless rich women in the city are the most exciting things for them.
Everyone also made a wish in their hearts, this battle is so hard, after the city is broken, they will slaughter the soldiers and civilians in the city, and then destroy the iron dragon city into white ground, so as to vent the hatred in their hearts.
Zhang Xianzhong's wolf-like sharp and ferocious eyes gradually began to show obvious anticipation and joy.
He was pleased to see that although Li Xiaojun was as fierce and powerful as a killing machine, it could not stand the large number of people, and the rebels who were constantly pouring in, after paying a huge price in casualties, finally began to gain a foothold at various entrances, and began to press Li Xiaojun, who surrounded him in a ring, to begin to retreat step by step.
Li Xiaojun Chifeng's 11th team of the 3rd armor An Liang used his shield to smash away two rogues who pounced, and the spikes on the shield pierced the two rogues, each of whom had three holes in their bodies, and the two rogues fell under the city wall with a howl and did not move.
This is the fifth rogue who died in his hands, An Liang's slender face didn't have time to show a happy smile, a heavy sledgehammer hit the big shield in his hand fiercely, the big shield instantly deformed and twisted, and the spikes full of blood on it were blasted in all directions.
The huge impact force caused An Anliang to fly several meters away, and his head slammed into a sharp and convex brick behind him. Suddenly, his whole body slid limply, leaving blood and brains imprinted on the bricks.
The rogue soldier who killed the shield soldier An Liang was extremely strong, and the heavy sledgehammer in his hand continued to fly, and the two spearmen who lost the shield protection were smashed by the sledgehammer that swept over, and their brains flew everywhere.
Soon, however, the sturdy rogue soldier was stabbed in the heart by two spears. The sledgehammer in his hand fell to the ground, and he stood dead with a hideous face.
As Li Xiao retreated, more and more rogues poured in from various entrances. Supreme Commander Li Xiao's face was very grim, and he was worried to see that at each gap, the ratio of the enemy and us in battle to death had changed from 7 to 1 at the beginning, then to 5 to 1, and now it is about 3 to 1.
Swords and spears flew like dragons, the enemy and the enemy fought desperately, shouts and scolds came and went, and the surging blood flowed all over the city wall and horse road, and still flowed in all directions. The Ming army and the rogues fought to the death, full of endless hatred for each other, only hated to eat each other raw, but in the end, the corpses of both sides were intertwined in one place, and blood flowed together.
The worst and most dangerous situation was the western wall guarded by Wang Yi.
There were still more than 20,000 people in total, mainly attacking the western city wall where more than 3,000 people were stationed, which put Wang Yi's defense department under tremendous pressure.
Fortunately, the Rampaging Sentinel joined them, divided into various squads, and supported the spear and shield soldiers who were not supported at the beginning, and with the addition of these Rampant Sentry members, who were strong like mecha warriors, the situation was barely stable.
Cheng Yong, the 2nd A A of the 4th Team of the Rampage Sentry, held a long-handled knife in his sturdy hands, the original sharp edge, at this moment the dripping blood was flowing uncontrollably, he had already killed 9 rogues, the more he fought, the more brave he became, and he roared and swung his blade forward to attack. The sharp tip of the knife in his hand was like a knife cutting butter, and he slashed the belly of the two rogues on the ground, and the two rogues screamed loudly and fell to the ground, and in the stomachs of the two of them, the dark blue intestines flew out like a fountain, splashing far away at the head of the cold defensive wall, and quickly mixed with the snowflakes on the ground, and were frozen into a cold ball.
Cheng Yong turned around and was about to swing his knife at another rogue next to him, when a cold spear tip stabbed fiercely into his ribs.
Cheng Yong could feel his strong heart burst like a balloon under the thrust of the tip of the rogue's spear. With blood spurting from his mouth, he thought in frustration: ", I didn't expect Lao Tzu to lose his hand here todayγγγγγγ β
Cheng Yong, who fell to the ground, closed his eyes with relief after seeing the rogue who attacked him crying and hacking to death by his rampant team members.
"All up! Block the thieves at the entrance! Wang Yishou, the chief commander of the iron dragon with an angry and anxious face, personally swung his sword into battle, roaring forward to fight the enemy soldiers who rushed to the city.
Seeing that the victor would be brave, the defenders of the west shouted in unison, and fought with all their might against the enemy troops who frantically poured into the city.
In order to support the crisis of the western city wall, Li Xiao ordered that a team of spearmen and a team of shield soldiers who had been serving as reserves at the southern city wall were all transferred to the western city wall to support the guards of the western city.
Subsequently, Li Xiao noticed that because Li Xiaojun had not released the earth-shaking thunder for a long time, the current rogue under the city wall was quite dense, but it was a good time to release the earth-shaking thunder again.
Li Xiao immediately ordered the auxiliaries of the city walls to immediately throw the thunder again.
"Bang bang γγγγγγ"
The auxiliaries quickly ignited and dropped more than 1,500 earth-shattering thunderbolts, and about 800 more exploded, and in the explosion that broke the eardrums, the rogues, at least five or six thousand people under the three city walls, were almost blown away.
The turbulent air waves and several screaming fragments turned thousands of rogues under the city into a rain of flesh, scattering in all directions, and the siege ladders were also torn apart, which also frightened the rogues who had not yet crossed the pontoon bridge on the moat, and turned around and fled one after another.
Seeing that there was chaos in front of the formation, the cavalry of the old battalion army who was in the back immediately brandished their sabers and rushed down, slashing and killing those rogues who caused chaos on the spot, desperately suppressing the formation.
At this time, Li Xiaojun took advantage of the precious opportunity when the rogue troops under the city were wiped out and there was no new rogue troops to attack, and he lifted his spirit and desperately attacked and killed those rogue who were also shocked to the point that their ears were deaf and their eyes were bleeding.
For a time, the offensive and defensive situation at the head of the city changed greatly, the rogue formation at the head of the city was in chaos, and the scope of the original desperate attack was gradually compressed by Li Xiaojun, and a large number of rogue bandits were killed in an instant when they were hesitating, and even many rogue bandits immediately knelt on the ground to ask for surrender, but, at this fierce moment, these rogue robbers who wanted to surrender were immediately killed by the red-eyed Li Xiaojun, and they were crazy to slash and kill.
"Brothers, don't be afraid! Li Xiao's guy, this earth-shattering thunder has been exhausted, and it is at the end of the road, the whole army is attacking quickly, and it cannot be defeated! Zhang Xianzhong, whose eyes were blood-red, saw that he had retreated in chaos, he was worried, and shouted and ordered.
Then, he personally led the cavalry of the old battalion army and rushed forward, slashing and killing those who fled.
It took a while for the rogues to regain their footing, shout again, pick up the siege ladder again, and come forward to attack.
Another siege ladder came up one after another, and another stream of rogue rogue climbed up again.
The battle on the city walls began to tighten again.
Seeing that the city head had regained the advantage, Zhang Xianzhong decided to take advantage of Li Xiaojun's lack of care to make the last killer move.
"Pass on the king's military order, organize a crash, cross the moat, crash open the enemy's city gate, and attack the city!"
Zhang Xianzhong shouted angrily, and the three huge crashing cars were immediately pushed by a large number of rogues, and the wheels creaked and screamed, and they staggered towards the three city gates in the east, west, and north.
Looking at the three huge crashing cars that were attacking his city gate, Li Xiao's heart shrank suddenly.
He knew that the critical moment that would determine the victory or defeat of the Battle of Iron Dragon City was coming. (To be continued.) )
