There was a reason why Li Su was not happy, and this reason was quickly confirmed.

The next morning, just after dawn and before the sun had risen above the horizon, the enemy camp poured out of its nest and lined up in the open space outside the city.

This time the formation is no different from the past, in fact, only need to queue up when attacking the city, and do not need any formation, the means of attacking the city are nothing more than ladders, digging tunnels, hitting the city gates, etc., these means are old-fashioned but effective, there is no city in the world that can never be conquered, as long as the besieging side has an absolute advantage in troops, sufficient food and grass logistics, and a master general with a normal IQ and brain who basically does not make a mistake, the city will inevitably be breached one day, without exception since ancient times.

Today's siege was the same as the previous times, but before the horn of the attack sounded, the defenders at the head of the city looked at the enemy troops quietly lined up outside the city, and their hearts suddenly flashed a little uneasy.

The enemy is still the same enemy, the formation is still the same as before, but when the enemy army stands quietly today, there are a few more different things, just standing there quietly, but invisibly exuding a strong killing intent, the hot wind in the desert gathers sand particles and wreaks havoc in the open space outside the city, the enemy formation is suddenly hidden in the yellow sand in the sky, a killing atmosphere accompanied by sand and dust, permeating the sky outside the city of Xizhou, looking at it from a distance, as if a ghost of revenge crawled out of the dark yellow spring, it makes people shudder.

Li Su stood at the head of the city, his eyelids jumping a few times.

He had a strong premonition that today, I am afraid that it is the most difficult battle to defend the city in Xizhou, and victory and defeat, life and death, will only be seen today.

The faces of the defenders also changed.

I can't say what is different, but they know that it is indeed different, as soon as the enemy army is lined up, they feel a strong killing intent fill all around, it is obviously the same army, but today it seems to be a complete change. An indescribable fear unconsciously invaded the hearts of the soldiers.

Soon, the enemy's mid-camp beat a big drum, and then the long horn whined low, echoing in the vast yellow sand.

As one of the generals at the forefront of the enemy army shouted loudly, the whole team took a step forward. Stepping out in unison, there was a loud bang, and even the earth seemed to tremble.

This momentum alone has changed the color of the defenders at the head of the city.

Li Su saw that the situation was not good, and it was very dangerous to go on like this, I am afraid that the enemy has not yet rushed to the city wall, and his morale has been exhausted by the enemy's might.

So Li Suqiang pulled out the long sword on his waist, raised it diagonally and pointed it to the sky, and shouted: "Remember! under our feet. It is the land of Datang and the city of Datang! Datang Wansheng, any Xiaoxiao who dares to attack will be torn apart by my Datang heroes! Soldiers, prepare for war! ”

With Li Su's roar, all the soldiers finally recovered some of their spirits, Li Su's words fell to the ground, and the spears and halberds in everyone's hands were slammed to the ground together. There was a loud bang.

"Datang, Wansheng. Wansheng! ”

Jiang Quan raised his sword and shouted: "Bow and arrow, step forward!" ”

"Burn the oil! Rolling rocks, rolling logs, all on the road! ”

"The gates below are blocked!"

“…………”

A series of military orders were issued, and while the morale of the soldiers at the head of the city gradually recovered, everyone began to get busy. Figures could be seen on the road at the head of the city, and hundreds of archers stood behind the stacks of arrows, drawing their bows and arrows, pointing at the enemy troops outside the city.

Outside the city, the horn of the attack was sounded, and the enemy troops marched a few steps in formation. The rhythm of the war drums increased in vain, and the footsteps of the enemy army became faster and faster, maintaining a high degree of consistency with the rhythm of the war drums, when there was still a mile away from the city wall, the drum suddenly became as rapid as raindrops, the enemy's formation had gradually dispersed, and they each ran towards the city wall, and the crowd suddenly broke out into a roar, the roar did not fall, and the ladder several zhang long had been heavily erected on the city wall, and countless enemy troops climbed towards the city head like ants.

"Earthquake thunder, up!" Jiang Quan did not hesitate to order.

"Hook and sickle, give me the ladder down!" Li Su also ordered urgently, and the young face became a little pale.

Under the stairs of the inner city, Cao Yu was sweating profusely, commanding the soldiers to carry the stones and rolling logs, and finally simply gritted his teeth and walked up to the city alone carrying a large log stake.

Each of them is busy, and each of them is fighting for his own life.

Boom a few loud bangs, the earth-shaking thunder played its anti-heaven effect as usual, dozens of small clay pots were thrown down the city wall, and there were countless corpses under the wall, and the two zhang radius was either dead or disabled, clearing out a strange open space, the dead enemy soldiers lay on the ground in various postures, the wounded were rolling on the ground with their heads in their hands, moaning in pain/groaning, crying for help, and behind, another group of enemy troops who went forward and followed one after another filled the open space cleared by the earth-shaking thunder just now.

Both offense and defense are doing their best, both in order to gain a chance for themselves.

Li Su shouted so hoarsely that his expression was even more solemn than he had ever been, and even anxious.

Today is the most difficult day in Xizhou, and it is also the most difficult day in his life, today will determine the life and death of Xizhou and him, life, not necessarily as gorgeous as summer flowers, death, but will definitely die a miserable death.

Speeding up his pace, Li Su ran on both ends of the city tower, constantly giving orders, Zheng Xiaolou and Wang Zhu followed behind him, and by the way, the cold arrow that was secretly shot at Li Su flew away, protecting Li Su's thoughtfulness in a silent way.

Less than half an hour after the siege began, all the defenders felt struggling, even with the sharp weapon of earth-shaking thunder, the defenders still felt that this battle was very hard, and the enemy seemed to have completely opened up, and the Western Regions people's brutal and desperate strength was brought into full play, even if they were stabbed and couldn't see that they couldn't live, they had to drag a defender before they died, and they had to drag him down the city wall with him.

Half an hour, heavy casualties! Unfortunately, the number of defenders is obviously much smaller than that of the besieging side, I don't know how many were injured and how many died, but at the head of the city and under the city, the corpses of the defenders have clearly piled up more and more, and the death is very tragic.

"Thunder! Throw it far outside the city! Li Su roared angrily.

Almost unable to support it, the city head several times there was a dangerous situation, almost occupied by the enemy army who rushed up madly, with the cost of countless lives to be able to take it back, this time, the soldiers more and more cold, they finally realized that the original earth-shaking thunder is not omnipotent, the real defense of the city, relying on people, relying on them these living people to fight with swords, with their lives to fill.

As an hour passed, the head of the city became more and more dangerous, and the enemy army had no intention of stopping, and climbed to the head of the city one after another, going forward one after another, and the locusts were as crazy and tragic as sweeping the ground.

Li Su's body was already a little swaying, he was so tired, so tired that he didn't even have the strength to speak, sweat flowed down his forehead, his eyes were confused, his vision became blurred, his ears were buzzing, and he could hear all kinds of sword strikes and screams and wails, but the sound seemed to be separated by a layer of fog, as if it came from another world far away.

He stumbled slightly, and when Li Su almost fell, Zheng Xiaolou grabbed his arm, and cleverly borrowed slightly, and Li Su stood up straight.

Squeezing a smile towards Zheng Xiaolou, Li Su was about to say something, when he suddenly heard a sound of surprise and surprise all around.

"Huh? There are reinforcements! ”

"Look out of town! There is a cavalry! ”

"It's not like our Han people in the Central Plains, it's the Turkic bearded man who helped our city relieve the siege before!"

Li Su was stunned for a moment, hurriedly ran to the arrow stack in three steps and two steps, squinted and looked out of the city, but saw a cavalry team dressed in tatters and holding scimitars out of the yellow sand, divided into two teams from west to east, and slammed into the enemy's central army formation outside the city like two sharp knives.

The leader was draped in a leather robe, and the other half of his arms were red, with a messy beard, and he rushed towards the enemy line with a knife and a strange scream.

The corners of Li Su's mouth hooked, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Well, Battle, such an ugly man, why is it that when I see him today, he is a hundred times more handsome than last time? How pleasing to the eye......
