Xiao is as thin as firewood and weak, and he is afraid that he is barely in his early thirties. With him, the speed of the impact was obviously much slower, and the arrows on the city wall were like a guide, piercing at him one by one, as if all the Jin troops were deliberately trying to kill themselves.

In fact, the speed was too slow, and it had fallen behind the last of the siege team, so it naturally became the target of everyone.

Fortunately, Baili Yan is strong and strong, although she is only sixteen years old, her strength is greater than that of ordinary people, even if she is caught in Xiao, her physical strength can still keep up.

Trying to dodge the arrows shot by the Jin army, the shield was already dense, and he kept walking the S route, dodging the attacks of most of the arrows, even so, the shield was already dense with feather arrows, and the weight was very heavy.

On the way to the impact, Bai Liyan shouted:

"Xiao, speak!" Bailiyan has no time to take care of Xiao anymore, but she is afraid that if she lowers her head and the center of gravity is deviated, she will fall on her head, and she will be shot into a hedgehog in a moment.

"Brother Wei, Brother Wei......" Xiao cried, extremely frightened.

"Don't be afraid, it's coming soon!"

always said don't be afraid, Bai Liyan is also afraid of death at this moment, saying that he is not afraid, that is also to give himself courage.

The corpses under the city wall that were not long in front were piled up into a hill, that is, in a few hours, more than 3,000 people fell under the city wall, at this time, Bailiyan couldn't help but feel sad for Ding Yang Hou and the Xian people, and he didn't know how Ding Yang Hou came up with such a stupid trick.

The casualties in a few hours reached more than 3,000 people, and most of them were dead, and the Marquis of Ding Yang actually had to forcibly attack the city, and only attacked one city wall, so that the Jin army had to concentrate all its forces to deal with the siege of the Xian army, I am afraid that even if Han He did not use the new city defense technology, today's casualties would not be less.

Seeing that they rushed all the way to the city wall, because they ran too slowly, the two less than 100 people who were attacking the city together rushed to the city wall and suffered more than two-thirds of the casualties, and the siege team behind them had already entered the battlefield and started another round of new impact.

Running all the way, he was stunned to rush to the city wall with Xiao in his arms, and Bai Liyan deliberately chose a cloud ladder where there were few people first. At this time, the stones on the city fell, followed by a splash of arrows, and the soldiers up and down the ladder suddenly rolled down, Bailiyan carried the shield and slashed left and right with a sword, blocking the arrows that came from behind, and finally his feet were soft, pressing on Xiao's back, and he also fell into the corpse pile inexplicably. As soon as he fell, Xiao tried to struggle, and Bai Liyan shouted:

"Don't move on your stomach, listen to Brother Wei!"

"Hmm!"

Xiao was lying on his stomach obediently, he probably didn't know that there was a pile of corpses under him.

Baili Yan just fell, and it was also a miracle that was not in danger.

The whole process of falling is like being hit by a stone, and as soon as the shield is blocked, it falls down. I didn't know what to do when I rushed into the city before, but suddenly stones rolled down from the city, and smashed the soldiers of the Xian army who climbed the city one after another.

Seeing this scene, he immediately decided to pretend to be dead, although pretending to be dead is not glorious and not necessarily useful, but under the fortified city, he just wants to live, and if he doesn't pretend to be dead, he can only attack the city hard, and obviously it will only die faster

Cold weapons are not very effective in fighting and pretending to be dead to escape, especially in field battles, where the victorious side often cuts off the enemy's head by cleaning up the battlefield in order to offset military achievements. Even if you pretend to be dead, once you are discovered, most of you will be killed after being attacked by the opponent, and then cut off your head.

At the moment of attacking the city, it is obviously impossible to clean up the battlefield for a while, and the probability of pretending to be dead and escaping is obviously very high.

However, it is not a million insurance, if the Jin army throws stones and rolling logs down, or even pours oil and fires, it is bad luck.

So Bai Liyan lay down, turned over a corpse next to him and pulled it on his back, then forked his feet outward, kicked over the corpses on both sides to make room, and then continued to dig down, burying himself and Xiao with other corpses.

Without waiting for the action to be in place, a new wave of impact arrived under the city, and at the same time, after several unsuccessful impacts by the rushing car that hit the city gate, a raging fire ignited, and the Xian army pushed a new car, and under the cover of dozens of people, continued to storm the city gate.

Bailiyan lay under the pile of dead people, pressing Xiao under him, Xiao faintly cried, crying very much.

"Don't make a sound!"

"Woo...... I'm afraid ......"

"Listen to Brother Wei, we will definitely survive."

Xiao cried so much, maybe it was the first time he saw death close at hand, or the first time he had close contact with a corpse. But fortunately, the shouts of killing are higher and higher, and he and he are buried under the corpse, and they should not be found for a while.

The siege continued, and after dark, firewood was piled up in front of the formation, which was lit and used as lighting. The siege teams went to Duyang City one after another. The corpses under the city wall were piled up layer after layer, I don't know how many layers of corpses were covered, Bai Liyan only felt that Xiao's body was full of liquid, it should be blood.

Just after the night hour, the siege strength of the Xian army suddenly weakened, and the Dingyang Marquis heard the wrong voice in the tent, so he asked the officer:

"Who ordered the siege to be stopped?"

"Back to Ding Yanghou, no one stopped attacking the city, just because the corpses accumulated on Duyang City were like mountains, so that there was no place for the city, so it was impossible to continue the impact."

Hearing this, Ding Yanghou was shocked:

"What are the casualties of our army!"

"More than seven thousand."

"What!" Ding Yanghou stood up in surprise: "Follow me to the front of the battle!" ”

"No!"

Ding Yang Hou put on a helmet and walked out of the tent, rode a war horse and went straight to the front of the battle. At this time, the siege battalion that replaced Yao Sheng had been lost, and when the Marquis of Ding Yang arrived, it was the last wave of attacks launched by the battalion, and the preparatory siege battalion had entered the battle position.

With the red firelight, the Marquis of Ding Yang looked at the city of Duyang, and the mountains of corpses piled up in the darkness were endless, and the casualties were so tragic that all the generals were terrified.

He urged the horse and saw Zhao Xun, who was adjusting the deployment:

"General Zhao Xun, why are our army so heavy in casualties!" Marquis Ding Yang asked, his tone unusually stern.

"The last general has already made it clear to General Zhang during the day that Han He has learned the tactics of our army Yin Yangcheng and applied them to our army, and if our army attacks the city, it will definitely suffer heavy casualties."

"Even if there are heavy casualties, how can it be converted into more than 7,000 people in half a day!"

I don't know if Ding Yanghou forgot about it, or if he had something wrong with his brain, or that he only regarded Zhao Xun's warning as alarmist. Now in less than half a day, 7,000 people have been lost, and Ding Yanghou naturally can't accept it.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and Zhao Xun groaned:

"Please also ask General Zhang to immediately withdraw the siege order, so as not to increase casualties."

"Stop the siege of the city, and order all armies and battalions to come to the commander's tent as soon as possible."

"Order!"

Zhao Xun breathed a sigh of relief, but what to do tomorrow, he had no skills.

Shaoqing war drums thundered, and the soldiers who had just killed the city turned their heads and ran away when they heard the drums, but they were killed and buried by the Jin army's bows and arrows in the dark night.

The generals rushed to the handsome tent one after another, and Ding Yanghou's face was blue and expressionless:

"Who told Ben Hou why the Jin army is so tenacious!"

When the words fell, Lu Jing said:

"Qi Yu Ding Yang Hou, the Jin army besieged Yin Yangcheng in the previous time, and was blocked by General Zhao, Han Heding learned the garrison tactics of Yin Yangcheng, and today it is used in Duyang City."

"Even so, how can we lose more than 7,000 people in half a day." Ding Yanghou couldn't believe it, how could he not have killed and injured so many people. If it is just starting to attack the city, it is understandable that there are more dead people, but it is not normal to die like this all the time.

At this time, Zhong Heng, the right governor under Zhao Xun, took a step forward:

"Back to Ding Yanghou. A siege camp should only attack one wall of Duyang City, which should be more than enough. It's just that all the siege camps of our army are old and weak, and they don't know the siege tactics, and Han He adheres to it with elites, and adopts the strategy of defending the city used by Wei Xian when he was defending Yin Yangcheng, so that our army is in a predicament today. ”

Hearing the word "Wei Xian", Ding Yanghou's face was immediately unhappy:

"Ben Hou asks you, what about the casualties when Han He attacked Yin Yangcheng!"

"As far as the last general knows, on the first day of Han He's tentative siege, there were more than 7,000 casualties, of which 5,000 were killed in battle, and our army's losses were so small that they could hardly be remembered. After that, Han He bombarded the city with stone cannons for ten days, and resumed the siege after ten days, and on the first day of the siege, more than 10,000 people were killed and wounded, and Han He had to rein in the siege efforts.

And now our army is only attacking a city wall in Duyang, and the Jin army is bound to concentrate all the elites to defend it, which makes it more difficult for our army to attack the city. ”

In addition to Han He's method of defending the city by Baili Yan, the Xian army concentrated its forces to attack only one city wall, which led to the other three city walls being able to unscrupulously draw troops to defend the western city wall.

Zhang Jun, Marquis of Dingyang, was silent for a long time, he was very annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't attack on his face, he could only hold back his anger and say:

"Who has a plan, can break the Jin army's city defense!" The voice fell for a long time, and no one under the tent spoke.

Han He laid iron hoof nails on the city head and wall battlements, and there were wolf teeth more than three feet long and more than one zhang long and threw them down with chains, and they could be recovered after throwing them, even if they were the current god of war, they couldn't withstand such a toss.

What's more deadly is that these things started in the Song Dynasty, which was the concept brought by Bailiyan, and the new city defense equipment that appeared in the Song Dynasty was because of the emergence of firearms and hot weapons, and the emergence of hot weapons increased the vulnerability of the city and reduced the difficulty of infantry to climb the city.

In order to strengthen the city's defense, it is a city defense that appears when enemy infantry enters the city under the suppression of fire.

Now used in this Bronze Age, the emergence of new city armor has seriously broken the balance of attack and defense, perhaps this is the result that Bai Liyan himself did not expect at the beginning.
