They're finally here.

On the hillside in the distance, one appeared first, riding a black horse, with a gloomy and ugly face, looking indifferently at the newly expanded earthen city.

After a few breaths, come out in a row.

Then, there were groups of monsters, all over the mountains and fields, and the dust flew hundreds of feet, covering most of the sun.

A huge shadow swept over the city, overwhelming the defenders.

These beasts are densely packed and advance directly, and there is no so-called formation, but because the size is too large and the number is too large, even if it is chaotic and rushes over, it is naturally a huge formation.

Dozens of wooden shelves for siege towered high and mingled between them, slowly pushing.

In the center, there were about three or five hundred monsters, larger and more hideous, one by one roaring up to the sky, making earth-shattering hisses.

On a big flag, a five-clawed fierce dragon with teeth and claws embroidered, the corners of the mouth were dripping with blood, and it looked extremely hideous.

A middle-aged man under his umbrella has a face like pale gold, but he looks clear and beautiful, and he has a kingly atmosphere.

The man half-squinted, looking at the city guards with bright helmets and strong armor, and suddenly smiled, revealing two rows of white Sensen's teeth.

"Siege."

The man said indifferently, there was no greeting, no mobilization, it seemed that the big city in front of him was just a sheepfold with a high wall, and if you break it, you will have meat to eat.

The monsters from the north heard the order and pushed forward as a whole.

Whew—

With a long howl, the monsters roared, slowly pushing the siege equipment towards the earthen city.

There are two main kinds of siege equipment for them, one is called the rushing car, and six large wheels are installed below, a total of eight layers, and twenty or thirty monsters on each floor are holding blades, ready at any time, once they are close to the city wall, they can rush up and smash over those defenders.

Or, if you encounter a wall that is too tall, you will slam it into the wall, and you will soon be able to make a big hole in the wall.

There is also a rudimentary but effective ladder, in which a large wooden frame folded up on one side is covered with a thick layer of woolen felt, and mud is splashed on it, which can resist the locust-like arrows of the city and prevent fire attacks.

The ladder does not need to be close to the city wall, when there is still a distance of one or twenty zhang, pull the rope, and the huge wooden frame that is folded will be overturned, and in the blink of an eye, the other half of the ladder will be stretched out, and it will be built on the city wall.

At the top of the ladder, a huge bronze hook is also set up to hook the edge of the city wall, even if there are more than ten soldiers, it is impossible to easily get rid of it.

These northern monsters are not particular at all, they will fight as they say, and in a dozen breaths, they have already rushed to the place of one or two arrows outside the city wall.

There was a loud bang, and those monsters took out their huge thick shields, put them on top of their heads, and slowly pushed forward.

The defenders at the head of the city were a little confused, because, according to the previous message, these monsters did not use shields and other objects at all because of their rough skin and thick flesh. Therefore, a large number of strong crossbows were prepared, intending to kill a large number of these beasts in a rain of arrows.

These miscellaneous pieces are so cunning that they didn't use all their strength before!

There is no way, the arrow is on the bow, and it has to be sent.

When those monsters advanced within range of the crossbows, they gave an order, and arrows rained down.

The arrows shot by the crossbow are two or three times thicker than the ordinary shaft, and more than twice as long, which can easily shoot through the light armored cavalry, even those heavy cavalry, one of them will die if they are not careful.

However, the huge shields held by these northern beasts were about eight inches thick, and they were also wrapped in sheepskins, cowhides, and even various animal skins, and the arrows could not penetrate them at all.

Only the arrows fired by those powerful crossbows and crossbows are actually javelins, whistling away, can break the shield and kill the enemy.

However, this crossbow is equipped with too few weapons, and can only shoot a very small number of monsters, which provokes them to roar in anger.

"Ready, stone-throwing!"

At the command of the defending general, dozens of trebuchets swayed and threw boulders into the crowd of monsters.

Those boulders flew smoothly in the air for a while, and then fell to the ground with a bang, and in a burst of rolling, they crushed dozens of northern monsters.

Those monsters were not afraid of death, ignoring the arrows and stones in the sky, blindly rushing forward, and in the blink of an eye, they were under the city wall.

Rushing to the city wall, the car lifted a wooden plank, and dozens of monsters held spears, big copper hammers and other weapons, not to attack the defenders of the city, but buried their heads in the city wall.

The city wall is built with loess salt water mixed with sand and gravel, if it is dry, it can not be destroyed easily, but the new city wall has not yet dried, and it is smashed in a mess, and when it is landed, it will dig a big hole in the city wall two or three zhang thick, and it is about to break.

The defenders of the city panicked, poured grease down in the rain of arrows, and threw down dozens of torches.

With a bang, the car caught fire, and those monsters were covered in flames, screaming and falling down.

And those ladders are not easy to deal with, those monsters began to attack the city, and thousands of bows and crossbows under the city fired in a volley, suppressing the soldiers at the head of the city so that they could not detect their heads, and if they were careless, they would be shot at the door by an arrow.

The monsters hooked dozens of ladders around the walls, attached ants to them, and carried huge shields against the rolling wood and stones thrown down from the city's head, and the boiling water.

The smashed northern monster screamed hoarsely, as long as there was a breath, it got up with one bone, struggling to continue to climb up, and some of the seven orifices bleeding were obviously not alive, and they were quickly buried by the corpses of other monsters.

Once those monsters climb the city walls, they will quickly tear a hole in the defense line in that area, and more hideous monsters will swarm in.

Such an attack and defense was white-hot from the beginning, with the sound of killing shaking the sky and wailing again and again.

The sky had a gloomy face, looking coldly at this tragic battle, just like the person under the banner of the black dragon, the pale gold face was cold and cold, and there was no joy, anger or sorrow.

He turned his head slowly and looked into the distance, as if waiting for something.

For the siege battle, he seemed a little absent-minded.

……

Just as the earth city was about to be breached, dust flew in the distance, obscuring the sky and the sun, and two armies rushed in with a bang.

It was the two ambushed chariot armies of the Zhou people.

The chariot phalanx was in front, and the two flanks were heavily armored cavalry, and when they were still two or three miles away from the battlefield, they began to start slowly, gradually increasing their speed, and the ground shook like a mountain and rushed into it.

The exhausted and almost desperate defenders of the city, seeing that their reinforcements had finally arrived, immediately cheered loudly and resisted the fierce attack of the northern beasts.

When the cavalry army was still two arrows away from the northern monster defense line, the chariots were ready to be fired, and the heavy cavalry held a shield in their left hand and a spear in their right arm.

With a shout, the car and the rider suddenly exerted force and crashed away.

Under the banner of the black dragon, the person with a pale golden face showed a strange smile, stretched out an arm, and waved it slightly.

The dense army of monsters parted like a tidal wave, giving way to a wide area for the chariots and hoplites to charge into.

Immediately afterwards, two teams of monster cavalry with black armor suddenly appeared, they rode black horses, each carrying more than ten zhang iron cable, one end of the iron rope was a half-human height sledgehammer, black and swarthy made of unknown material, covered with sharp thorns of footage.

The tall monsters galloped on their horses, gently lifted the sledgehammer, and swung it away.

The two teams of black knights did not meet them head-on, but galloped towards the wings of those chariots and heavy cavalry, and the sledgehammers attached to the iron cables in their hands slammed into the elites of the Zhou people.

With a swing of the hammer, those heavy cavalry, with men and horses, were directly smashed into pulp, and the flesh and blood flew sideways, but they were silent.

The fate of those chariots was similar, as soon as they were hit by a sledgehammer, the four soldiers on the chariot who were ready to fight would be bombarded to pieces along with the chariots.

Once the hoplites in front were killed, the advance of the rear was bound to be blocked, and they trampled on each other, and in less than three or four breaths they were in chaos.

The same is true of chariots, the wreckage of the chariots in front of them is piled up, and those who rush behind will be overturned on their backs, and those black knights will be hammered with their hands, and their brains will collapse.

At the same time, those tide-like northern monsters are not vegetarians, and they took the time to shoot the Zhou people who avoided the sledgehammer into hedgehogs.

……

This was a well-prepared slaughter, and it seemed that those northern monsters, or rather, the golden-faced people under the black dragon had long known the tactics of the farming tribes, so while besieging the city, they hid two teams of tigers and wolves that specialized in dealing with heavy cavalry and chariots.

This kind of tactic was once used by Guo Yang to deal with the heavy cavalry of the Yan people, but no one was so easy.

This kind of solo riding, wielding a meteor sledgehammer to break the enemy's heavy armor, cannot be used at all if it is not for the infinite strength.

As soon as he saw him, the elite division of the Zhou people was stunned.

In less than a cup of tea, most of the heavy cavalry and chariots were lost.

General Zhouren, who commanded in the distance, was dumbfounded.

The original plan was for heavy cavalry and chariots to crash into the enemy's line and disrupt the enemy's defenses, and then 20,000 light cavalry would then cover the killing.

The plan is not as good as changing, two teams of black knights emerged from the Northern Monster Legion, breaking the heavy cavalry and chariots, should the light cavalry legion behind charge?

General Zhou Ren was also a veteran of the battlefield, and even if he lost the first battle, he reacted immediately.

In order to make way for the heavy cavalry and chariots, the monsters separated like a tide, and the originally impenetrable defense line finally showed a flaw.

Battlefield opportunities are fleeting.

As soon as the general gave the order, 20,000 cavalry suddenly charged, and in seven or eight breaths, they crashed into the group of monsters, like two sharp swords, and plunged into them fiercely.

At the same time, the more than a dozen soldiers and horses of King Qin's vassal states were also sent out and rushed into the enemy formation together.

The cavalry of the Zhou people was well-trained, and even in the face of those rough-skinned monsters, they were not afraid at all, and they went on a rampage, quickly cutting the northern beasts that were full of fields into seven or eight pieces.

Soon, the entire area within a radius of more than ten miles became a battlefield.

Cavalry against cavalry, cavalry against infantry, and some of the remaining chariots and hoplites of the Zhou people also began to get rid of the attacks of those black knights, rushing to the east and west of the monster group, and smashing those beasts that were inferior to beasts to pieces.

……

It was getting dark.

The siege battle continues, and both sides are desperate.

After the rolling wood and stones were smashed, and the boiling water was too late to burn, the soldiers in the city began to demolish the houses, regardless of the clods of earth and stones or the rafters of wood, and carried them to the head of the city and smashed them down.

The monsters of the north roared and roared, one after the other, the bloody and ugly corpses piled up, and some beasts that were not yet dead grinned with a large mouth and sharp fangs, grinning at the city.

The fighting outside the city intensified, with casualties on both sides, blood seeping into the dirt and making the horses' hooves slip.

Man and beast roared, entangled together, and did everything they could to kill and maim their opponents.

The combat power of both sides was quickly consumed, and in general, those northern monsters gradually began to counterattack because of their superiority in numbers and strength, surrounding those Zhou cavalry regiments.

Every moment, people are dying.

Every dead man is unwilling, and tries his best to slash out the final blow, trying to die with the enemy.

……

The battle lasted for three or four hours, and the physical exertion on both sides was severe.

Those northern monsters began to take time to eat, and while attacking, they tore off the flesh and blood of those Zhou soldiers and devoured them, their faces and mouths full of blood, like a group of hellish demons.

The Zhou soldiers were already at a disadvantage, and one was more and more critical.

In the distance, General Zhouren, who was in charge of commanding the battle, had a pale face, but he was powerless to return to the sky.

His only hope now is that the two royal divisions in the city can repel the besieging enemy as soon as possible, open the city gates, and kill them in one go, so as to rescue his own soldiers and horses surrounded by groups outside the city.

However, he also roughly saw that the defenders in the city were also exhausted at the moment, and they were too busy to take care of themselves, where could they spare their hands!

General Zhou Ren was remorseful.

If you keep a certain amount of strength at the beginning, even if it is two or three thousand light cavalry, it will become the key to victory or defeat at this moment!

At the same time, the golden-faced man under the Black Dragon showed a slight smile.

He won this battle.

The besieged Zhou cavalry will be exhausted sooner or later, and even men and horses will become the belly of the monsters.

And to break the city, it was only a matter of time, and he still had a lot of siege equipment that he had not used, in order to trap and kill these self-righteous Zhou cavalry.

The golden-faced man looked up at the sky.

It's nearly dusk.

He looked out over the battlefield from afar.

Victory is in sight.

If he hadn't suddenly seen a row of black dots on the hillside in the distance, he would have wanted to sit down and drink a jue of wine.

It was the north, and the direction they came from, shadows and shadows, some moving black dots appeared, and through the dust flying from the battlefield, like some ghosts, they rushed over without a sound.

Guo Yang finally made a move.

His more than 3,000 cavalry were waiting for this opportunity.
