Noon had arrived, and hunger crept into the attacking and defending sides surrounding the city.

Unbeknownst to him, he had already ordered a second attack. In his opinion, the city is not high, the river is not deep, in front of his elite infantry carrying siege equipment, it is simply a joke, as long as the infantry charges, the head of the city can be completely defeated in one fell swoop.

Looking at the huge door-slamming car and the sturdy ladder, as well as the more than 5,000 infantrymen in high spirits, Que Yi was full of confidence.

Before the infantry sorted, it was the usual cavalry before the siege.

Thousands of Turkish cavalry, divided into several groups, galloped back and forth under the north gate, shooting arrows at the defenders at the head of the city. This is also a special trick of the Turgish, and the accurate cavalry fire not only kills and injures the defenders' living forces, but also severely demoralizes them. Each time, the defenders were pinned down under the battlements, fearless in the face of infantry attacks.

The cavalry shooting of the Turgish, the defenders have already been taught, how can they be unprepared.

As the cavalry under the city swept up the dust, countless rudimentary wooden rafts and straw figures were erected, and the defenders hid under the wooden rafts, listening to the rain of arrows clanging on the rafts. Only a few soldiers stayed on the arrow tower, observing the enemy situation through the lookout hole.

In order to confuse the Tuqi Shi people, Li Huaitang even asked the soldiers to tie a lot of straw figures, put on clothes, and place them on the city, hoping that the Tuqi Shi people would not find out too early.

Looking at the Chinese army of the Turgish, you can vaguely see that the defenders on the head of the city are constantly falling with arrows, and the other defenders are going forward and following one another, constantly filling up, and life is so cheap.

Que Yi smiled and smiled proudly, forgetting the unhappiness just now.

"The defenders are brave, but they are stupid! If we had enough feathered arrows, there would be no need for infantry at all. ”

Gu Si was puzzled, it is said that Li Huaitang is not a person who lacks wisdom and resourcefulness, and he also attaches great importance to the lives of his subordinates, how could he behave so rashly and recklessly, and regard the lives of his subordinates as if they were mustard? No, there must be a problem! But what the problem was, he couldn't figure it out for a while.

"It's a pity that we don't have enough feather arrows."

Que Yi is difficult to continue to regret. The Turgish people can't produce qualified feather arrows, and the arrows used are all snatched or deceived from the Tang Dynasty, and every time they fight with the big cannibals, the Tang Dynasty generously supports some arrows to come over, but after all, this weapon is still consumed too quickly. Although over the years, many Tang craftsmen have also been captured to make feather arrows for themselves, but the speed of production is so slow that Sulu Khan began to gradually lose patience.

The bones slurped, yes, it's a feather arrow! In the process of the Western Expedition, didn't Li Huaitang often ask himself for feather arrows? You can see how lacking he is, is he deceiving the feathered arrows in our hands, ah? Yes! Gu Si suddenly figured it out, and hurriedly explained to Que Yi Nanru.

"Dummy?"

Que Yi's face changed between red and white, and he felt that he was being slapped on the other side of his face by the defenders again.

Que Yi, who was stunned for a while, let the trumpeter blow the call to collect the troops, and then waved his hand to let the infantry press down.

Suo, who was riding and shooting, wondered if he had not had enough of it, but the fruitful results inspired him and every cavalryman under his command, and he saw with his own eyes that three "defenders" were shot down by him, and if he waited a little longer, the defenders would probably collapse. Unwillingly, Suo reluctantly led the cavalry to withdraw, giving way to the slowly advancing infantry.

Hearing the horn of the attack, the infantry excitedly carried small bags of earth and ladders, pushing the carts and slowly moving towards the city gates. The small city in front of them is nothing compared to the fortified city that they conquered before. The boss has also repeatedly promised that as long as they can break the city, then the wealth of the city will be at their disposal and free to indulge for three days. Tempted by the wealth of the city, the infantry showed signs of turning into wolves.

The lookout in the arrow tower hurriedly waved his flag and shouted, reminding every soldier in the city that the enemy's infantry was about to come up.

The enemies they will face this time are obviously different from the first time, and the clues can be found in the steps of their advance.

"It's the elite infantry of Yi Wei!"

The infantry under the city was like a colony of ants, gradually approaching, unhurried, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. Li Huaitang has seen their performances, and if it weren't for the Hellfire in Bukhara, then their performance would still be impeccable.

"However, we are not soft sheep either, it depends on who has the last laugh!"

Li Huaitang smiled coldly.

The attacking infantry came within range of their bows and arrows, and the defenders, who had just received the gifts from the Turgish, did not seem to appreciate it, and squandered the arrows in their hands and returned them to the Turgish.

The overwhelming rain of arrows and black overshadowed the advance path of the Yi Yi infantry, and the infantry who were hurrying with their heads bowed suddenly let out a shout, instantly increased their speed, and rushed towards the city gate. Experience has taught them that they can only survive if they pass through this death zone quickly.

The lightly armed infantry was fine, but the soldiers who carried heavy ladders and pushed carts were suffering, and for the archers of the defending army, they were simply excellent targets for archery.

Looking down from the top of the city, the enemy soldiers carrying the long ladder resembled a long worm crawling, the ladder was its body, and the soldiers carrying the ladder were its legs. Archers who are good at archery all aim their arrows at the "legs" of these insects. Although there were also wooden platoonmen who followed them to cover them, many of the ladder-carrying infantry fell to the ground with arrows, and one after another heavy ladders began to fall to the ground. Fortunately, there were quite a few attacking infantry, and the infantry who came up after silently carried the ladder that fell to the ground and continued to advance towards the city wall......

The soldiers pushing the rushing cart were heavily protected, and the feathered arrows on the head of the city did not cause them much damage, but only caused a lot of trouble for their movement. The infantry on both flanks had crossed the moat with ladders on their shoulders, and they were still far behind.

The moat of the city was terrible, and the soft riverbed made it difficult to excavate, and before it was dug deeper, the banks would collapse and more sand and mud would fall. Therefore, the moat of the city of Qishi has always been shallow. The lightly armed Turgish, each carrying a small bag of dirt on their shoulders, filled the moat with little effort.

Dozens of ladders have been leaning against the battlements of the city head, and the top of the cloud ladder has a special hook that can firmly hook the masonry of the city head. The desperate soldier followed the ladder and quickly ascended the ant. For these outlaws, the attraction of wealth in the city far outweighed the threat of death in the city.

Commanding the defense of the city, Li Huaitang was not good at it, so he handed over the right to defend the city to Gongsun Yaowu, a military cavalry general.

Under the calm command of Gongsun Yaowu, the defenders methodically resisted the enemy's attack.

Countless head-sized stones were thrown from the city, and if they were hit, they would lose their combat effectiveness if they did not die on the spot. The tree rolled down the ladder, and many of the soldiers who were climbing were suddenly hit, and most of them were washed to the ground. The ground beneath the walls had been deliberately reinforced by the defenders into a myriad of sharp protrusions, and the sharp wooden stakes were deeply embedded in the earth. Those unfortunate enemies who fell on it were all pierced on it, and they couldn't be penetrated for a while, and let out a creepy wail.

If the city of Beggars were as tall as the city of Samarkand, it would be a nightmare for the attacking side. If the city of Samarkand were as small as the city of beggars, the attacking side would wake up laughing in their dreams. The small walls of the city could not stop the wolf-like enemies, and after paying the price of hundreds of lives, someone finally broke through the defenders' defenses and jumped up the ladder to the top of the city. Once the breakthrough point is torn apart, more breakthrough points will appear one after another.

Fierce battles are being staged on the city. For a moment, blood mist sprayed, and severed limbs flew.

Gongsun Wenyuan led the crossbowmen to be busy fighting the fires on the city, eliminating the enemies who jumped on the city, and as more and more enemies appeared on the city, the role of the crossbowmen began to become minimal.

The speed of the attack of the Turgish infantry far exceeded Li Huaitang's expectations, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of enemies appeared on the top of the city and engaged the defenders in hand-to-hand combat. If it weren't for the numerical advantage, with the desperate fighting style of those outlaws, the banners on the city's head would have been easily changed.

Compared to the last time, this time, the defenders performed much better, at least, so far, the general cavalry of the Overseer has not killed a single deserter. All the soldiers, under the leadership of the generals, fought the enemy with their lives and death. However, when most of the defenders focused on the fierce hand-to-hand combat at the top of the city, the enemy below the city had no scruples, and the speed of their ascent to the city was greatly increased. The enemies on the head of the city, kill a group, and some of them will pour into a larger group. The defenders also suffered heavy casualties, and the defensive line began to loosen somewhat.
