The man who guarded this new city was a general of Goguryeo named Wenda.

Since this person was sent by King Rongliu to sit here, it was naturally to guard against the invasion of strong enemies in the Central Plains. This is an extremely important task, and although the king is arrogant, he is also self-aware.

If it is relying on the advantages of the terrain, Goguryeo may be able to fight with Great Xia, but if it is really hard-hitting, I am afraid that the result will be more embarrassing, and there are so many troops in the Central Plains, I am afraid they will not be able to resist.

This Wenda is obviously a cautious person, who has been in the new city for many years, and there has been no omission. He set up a number of outposts around the perimeter in case of a surprise attack by the enemy.

At this time, Wenda's arrangement finally came into play, and the sentinels spotted the advancing enemy troops at the first time, and hurriedly returned to the new city to report to Wenda.

It's just that they don't know that this is all deliberately done by Luo Cheng, otherwise the Snapdragon Army wouldn't be able to find these sentinel scouts. This matter, to put it mildly, is just an attempt to get away with it.

Hearing of the enemy's attack, Wenda's expression changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down, and now was not the time to mess up. The first task was to bring the matter back to the royal city of Pyongyang.

What he has to do now is to stabilize the defense of the new city, and not let the enemy attack easily. If the new city is lost, a large area around it will be affected, and the defense line will collapse backwards.

Wenda naturally read the book of war, and now there are 30,000 soldiers and horses in the new city, and according to the scouts, the enemy army is only 100,000, that is, he still has a great chance to hold the new city.

Since ancient times, it is not uncommon for those who rely on the city to defeat ten times the army. Now Wenda has 30,000 soldiers and horses, and the enemy army is only three times, and he still has the strength to fight.

Thinking of this, Wenda couldn't help but feel a lot more settled, and this time he wanted to let these Central Plains troops know that their Goguryeo was not to be bullied. As soon as reinforcements arrived, they had the possibility of counterattacking.

Because the relationship between Goguryeo and Bactria has become increasingly tense recently, it is because Wangcheng had prepared a large amount of grain and grass in the new city earlier, and in any case, in case of emergency, it came in handy at this moment.

"Pass the order, let the soldiers strengthen their vigilance, and if there is any change, they will come back immediately." After Wenda sent the battle report away, he looked at the surrounding generals and said, quite aggressively.

Everyone said yes, and they all got to this point, and naturally no one disobeyed. If the Great Xia army breaks through the new city, I'm afraid that none of you here will be able to escape.

……

Looking at the tower of the new city, Luo Cheng showed a playful smile, and said loudly: "It seems that the defenders have received the news, and now is the time for our army to attack the city, so we must use the momentum of thunder."

At this time, Luo Cheng was not prepared to show mercy to his subordinates, anyway, now that they were attacking, they naturally wanted to fight quickly. Therefore, he directly sent Pei Yuanqing to lead the army to attack the city.

After being idle for so long, Pei Yuanqing was already hungry and thirsty, and at this moment, he got Luo Cheng's order to lead 30,000 Xiaolong troops to go outside the new city, holding a pair of silver hammers in his hands, which was really scary.

At this moment, Wenda was on the city wall, and he couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw Pei Yuanqing approaching with his troops. Especially when I saw the pair of sledgehammers, I felt more and more incredible, this must be made of wood.

It's normal for Wenda to be incomprehensible about this, after all, he rarely goes to the Central Plains, and he doesn't know the masters among them. And Pei Yuanqing doesn't look very old, and he actually uses such a sledgehammer, which is really suspicious.

But in fact, Pei Yuanqing's double hammer is really powerful, if anyone dares to despise him, he will definitely die a miserable death. Today, there is no one who can compete with him in the hammer method, except for Li Yuanba.

Although he had doubts in his heart, Wenda did not take it lightly, he had always known the strength of the Central Plains Dynasty. Even if this young man's hammer is fake, he must have something extraordinary, otherwise it would be impossible to attack the city for the vanguard.

It was Yiwenda who slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, which eased the slightly tense atmosphere a little, and he said aloud: "All the soldiers obey the order and defend the new city, and it won't be long before Pyongyang will have reinforcements to support it."

There was no doubt that the pressure felt by Xincheng at this moment was extremely great, after all, they were facing the Central Plains Dynasty, which had been extremely powerful since ancient times, and although there was no official battle, the air was already very hot.

Hearing that it would not take long for reinforcements to come to support undoubtedly boosted the morale of the soldiers, they did not need to hold out for too long, as long as they stabilized for a few days, they could be preserved.

This doesn't seem impossible, after all, they have 30,000 horses, and they have a city bonus, which is enough to fight against strong enemies outside. As long as they don't go out with their heads and be tough.

But this is what the defenders think after all, in the eyes of Pei Yuanqing and the Snapdragon Army, this so-called city wall is not worth mentioning at all. Not to mention that they had also stormed the tower of Chang'an City before, so it was called spectacular.

Pei Yuanqing took 30,000 Snapdragon troops and soon arrived outside the city walls. Many equipment were ready, and they were ready to start the siege, and the army was sharp.

In fact, if you use catapults to throw explosives, it is not too easy to capture the new city. But this thing is not very convenient to transport, Luo Cheng did not slack off, although the explosives are available, but they are not suitable for use at the moment.

Like the guns on ships, they rely on the hull itself, and attack basically parallel lines. If you want to attack the towering city wall in this way, it is still not appropriate.

Looking at the defenders on the city tower, Pei Yuanqing suddenly ordered, and the army charged out, facing the dense rain of arrows, cloud ladders and siege vehicles and the like were all online, and attacked the new city.

When the war began, Luo Cheng was in the army, and his eyes were swept over, and then he ordered the drums to beat, and the passionate and loud drums sounded, which made people's blood boil, and at the same time made the defenders change color.

The difference between the two armies is difficult to know when they have not really touched each other. But when the two sides really began to fight, the gap was infinitely magnified, just like that.

Under the attack of the Snapdragon Army, the defenders were shocked, and the enemy troops who were not afraid of death and had amazing combat power climbed at a rapid speed, and climbed the tower with their incredible strength.

Wenda looked a little confused, this was a little different from what he imagined, a few rounds of arrow rain just now, but did not hurt a few enemy soldiers, and let them attack the city tower so quickly?

It's simply unconscionable.

But no matter how unbelievable Wenda was, it was a fact, and Pei Yuanqing had already led the army to charge. With the army ascending the tower in front, there is a steady stream in the back.

Seeing this, Wenda knew that he could not retreat, so he gritted his teeth and brazenly picked up his weapon and rushed out. These attacking enemy forces must be forced back, or the new city will be broken in an instant.
