Chapter 551: Armageddon (2)
"The Tang thief is up, the Tang thief is up!"
Although the troops of Anxi ** attacking the city are not many, the movement is not small, and it is impossible for the defenders in the city not to see it, and in panic, they all shouted wildly.
"Bastard, it's a mess, everyone is in place, prepare for war!"
Lu Yanda had been observing **'s every move on the city, and when he saw that it was almost noon, ** but there was no sign of siege, thinking that ** might march after the meal, and then go back to the city gate tower to rest for a while, but he didn't expect that the buttocks were not yet hot, and there was a commotion outside, and he was shocked, and rushed out in three steps and two steps.
The Tubo army had expected that ** would come to attack the city, and all the equipment to defend the city had long been ready to stop, and there was no shortage of sandalwood, rolling stones, boiling oil, etc., and the previous panic was just deterred by the momentum of **, and was roared by Lu Yanda, and they all calmed down, and they all stood on their respective battle positions, nervously waiting for the arrival of the ** Chongcheng troops.
"Rush, kill the city!"
**The speed of the marching troops in the city is not fast, the time of half a pillar of incense has passed, and it has only advanced to a distance of 100 steps from the city, but with Wan Liangcai's roar, the two thousand ** soldiers suddenly accelerated, let go of their legs, and rushed towards the city wall with all their strength, the speed became faster and faster, and in an instant, they had rushed to a distance of less than 70 steps from the city.
"Crossbowman, prepare!"
Seeing that the ** siege force had been killed, Lu Yanda didn't dare to slack off a little, raised his voice and shouted, and more than 1,000 crossbowmen at the head of the city immediately moved when they heard the order, and they all stretched out their bows and arrows, leaned out from the city saucer, and aimed the arrows in their hands at the ** soldiers who were running wildly.
"Cavalry attack!"
Seeing that the Tubo crossbowmen had already come out, Liu Shuangshun, who had been waiting for a long time, did not dare to delay any longer, roared angrily, and led his 1,000 cavalry to launch a fierce charge, the speed was extremely fast, and in an instant, he crossed his own infantry army that had already rushed up, and killed the city like a fly.
"Shoot the arrows!"
**The speed of the cavalry's rush is too fast, so fast that Lu Yanda on the head of the city can't react, seeing that the **cavalry has been killed, his heart can't help but sink - the cavalry is not the main force in the siege war, and the role it can play is only auxiliary, Lu Yanda doesn't want his own crossbowmen to fight with the **cavalry, but the **cavalry is too fast, at this time, the Tubo crossbowmen have no time to change the formation, and they dodge themselves, so they can only mess up their own formation, and they are helpless, At this order, the crossbowmen did not dare to slack off, and let go of their hands on the strings, but in a sharp roar, more than a thousand feathered arrows shot down the city like locusts.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Liu Shuangshun rushed up at this time with the purpose of rushing up to these Tubo crossbowmen, as soon as he rushed to the city, he unceremoniously gave the order to attack, and the ** cavalry who had been prepared for a long time raised the strong crossbow in their hands, aiming at the head of the city, and nearly 10,000 steel arrows flew up to the city like a torrential rain.
The offensive and defensive sides shot arrows almost at the same time, but the results were very different - ** cavalry is in high-speed motion, Rao is the Tubo crossbowmen are good at shooting, aiming is really difficult, a rain of arrows down, but only less than 20 ** shot off the horse, can be shot by ** strong crossbow like this, the defenders are unlucky, you must know that the bow and crossbow in the hands of **cavalry is a chain crossbow, a shot is ten steel arrows, a thousand cavalry shot arrows are enough to have 10,000 arrows, On average, each Tibetan crossbow has to spread out to ten, although the quasi-head of the chain crossbow is really not high, but the density is too great, a random shot down, the city head howled and fell under the city Tubo crossbow hands and feet as many as two hundred, as for the injured are even more.
"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!"
The ** cavalry who had finished shooting swept under the city, and then the troops rushing to the city had already caught up with the front and rear feet, and the tacit understanding between them was extremely acquiesc, so that Lu Yanda couldn't help but change his face, and he didn't care to check the casualties of his own crossbowmen, so he let go of his throat and roared.
Lu Yanda's order was issued in time, but the remaining Tubo crossbowmen have not yet been able to recover from the super-saturated attack of the **cavalry, and the crossbowmen who can really hear the order are less than one in a hundred, and there are very few arrows to shoot at the city, so they can't stop the footsteps of ** rushing to the city wall.
"Climb the ladder!"
After successfully rushing to the city, Wan Liangcai did not dare to easily waste the advantageous fighter created by his cavalry, and did not hesitate to issue the order to attack the city.
"Whew, Whew......"
Wan Liangcai's order, a group of ** officers and soldiers did not dare to delay a little, brushed up the ladder together, roared towards the city, more than 20 ladders at the top of a ** warrior, at this time all tried their best to tense their bodies, ready to take advantage of the momentum of the ladder to turn over to the city.
"Crossbowmen, shoot ladders, don't stop! The spearman comes forward, the pitcher prepares! ”
Seeing that he could no longer stop the ** tree from raising the ladder, Lu Yanda couldn't help but be a little anxious, and roared and issued a series of orders one after another.
"Kill!"
Lu Yanda is worthy of being a veteran in the army, this series of orders was issued almost impeccablely, with the order, not only the remaining crossbowmen gathered their firepower at the top of the ladder of the ** warriors, but also a thousand spearmen rushed forward, struggling to push up/grab the stab, under the stabbing of the gun, more than 20 ** warriors were stabbed on the spot because they had nowhere to dodge, and fell down the ladder with a miserable howl, only a few took advantage of the chaos to jump onto the city, despite the hard fighting, they also slashed and killed a few city guards, But he was soon stabbed to death by the swarming Tibetan defenders on the head of the city.
"Go up, kill the city!"
More than 20 warriors who turned over the city were all killed, but their death won precious time for the follow-up officers and soldiers attached to the ants, with Wan Liangcai's order, a team of ** officers and soldiers began to climb up along the ladder, without waiting for the Tubo army to adjust in place again, more than 20 ladders, there have been more than a dozen ladders on the ** officers and soldiers rushed to the position level with the city.
"Kill, press down the Tang thief, kill, kill!"
The way to defend the city lies in suppression, once the attacker rushed to the city, the city will lose more than half, this truth Lu Yanda will not be unclear, this time the ** soldiers have poked their heads out of the city, how dare they be careless, roared and ordered a group of defenders to rush forward, and ** soldiers started a battle of attack and defense.
In the siege battle, the attacker is always in a passive state, even if Anxi ** is well-trained, when it comes to combat power, it is far stronger than the Tubo foot soldiers, but the geographical advantage is on the Tubo side, although the first officers and soldiers are attacking upwards at any cost, but they will not be able to break through the defense of the Tubo people for a while and a half, the battle is extremely fierce, and the casualties of the first officers and soldiers are getting bigger and bigger, but they still refuse to stop, brave the arrows, rolling stones, and wood attacks of the defenders of the city, and go forward to attack the city one after another.
"The whole army obeys the order, and the two teams are responsible for a cloud ladder to shoot the fuck for Lao Tzu!"
Just when the ** infantry army was tight, the **cavalry that had been loaded with a chain crossbow rushed to the front again, and when he saw that the war was unfavorable, Liu Shuangshun was anxiously red-eyed, pointed to the five ladders on the left city wall, and shouted and ordered.
"No!"
As soon as Liu Shuangshun's voice fell, the following group of ** cavalry team was responding to the order with a bang, and each of them dispersed with their own units, shooting in turns for a group of two hundred people, in order to cover the infantry army's rush to the city, but seeing the chaotic arrows flying like locusts, the Tubo officers and soldiers who dared to rise all fell to the city head miserably, but in a moment, the Tubo defenders on the left city wall suffered heavy casualties, and the rest were no longer able to hinder the upward climb of the ** foot soldiers.
"Crossbowmen, concentrate on the left wall, release arrows, release arrows!"
Seeing that the left wall was tight, he didn't dare to slack off, not only transferred the reserve to the left, but also ordered the remaining crossbowmen to attack the ** foot soldiers on the ladder at any cost.
"Damn, damn it, Team A and Team B, scatter the sides and suppress the crossbowmen at the head of the city!"
The Tubo crossbowmen were already frightened by the sharp chain crossbows of the ** cavalry, and did not rush to the left city wall, but scattered on both sides, constantly attacking the ** soldiers who rushed to the city with bows and arrows, effectively hindering the pace of the **siege, such a situation came out, but Liu Shuangshun was provoked, scolded, and sent out two teams of cavalry to suppress the crossbowmen at the head of the city. The two sides only shot at each other for a while, and the crossbowmen at the head of the city, who suffered heavy casualties, immediately became shrunken turtles again, and they were no longer able to suppress the ** rush on the left.
"Get out of the way, pro-guards, go to the city with Lao Tzu!"
Although the crossbowmen at the head of the city have been suppressed, the spearmen hiding behind the city plate are not the strong crossbows of the **cavalry can attack, this group of spearmen in the spear in their hands, a group of ten people, whenever there are ** soldiers from the ladder, will be stabbed down with spears, just rely on such a move, but the ** hard-won advantage is invisible, life and life made ** officers and soldiers pay the price of more than 20 warriors in life, but never made a breakthrough, such a situation, Wan Liangcai can be anxious red eyes, I couldn't care about commanding or not, so I yelled, led the guards to rush to the city wall on the left, lined up the chaotic soldiers, held a horizontal knife in my mouth, and personally went into battle to charge the city......
