89. Tragic siege warfare
Men were constantly being shot by arrows under the city, but more soldiers came up from behind. As more and more soldiers crossed the moat, the archers alone could no longer stop their advance!
At this time, one after another cloud ladders leaned against the top of the city, and the soldiers of Yuan Jun began to climb up the cloud ladders with shields on their heads. Ding Feng immediately called for the soldiers to replace some of the archers, and then several people worked together to support the pole and overturn the ladder.
As a cloud ladder was overturned, all the Yuan soldiers on the ladder fell, and the tallest one was directly smashed into a meat patty.
At this time, the cries, shouts, and scolding under the city were all in one piece, and when I looked down, the dead bodies had covered the ground, and there were countless wounded people in the pile of dead bodies who couldn't stop wailing, and at this time, many Yuan soldiers simply stepped on the corpses of their companions and crawled up to the city. The ladder fell down and was lifted up again, and the soldiers in the city who were responsible for overthrowing the ladder had been rotated several times, and all those who were replaced were exhausted and spread aside to rest. The archers also changed to a new batch, and each of them shot at least three pots of arrows before.
As time passed, the casualties on the city began to increase, and many people were injured by cold arrows fired from the city. The archers of Yuan's army finally came to the city, and they could only shoot arrows at the bottom of the city or near the inner walls.
Ding Feng saw that it was not a way to go on like this, and immediately shouted: "Get on the rolling log!" "What is a rolling log, to put it bluntly, it is a log, but they are all cut into a battle or so. It takes two or even three soldiers to lift.
The soldiers carried the log to the edge of the wall and threw it down the ladder against the wall. Rolling wood suddenly heard a commotion below. "Oh my god!"
"Jump!"
"Rolling wood down!"
"Run, it's too late!"
……
In an instant, there was no more Sergeant Yuan on the ladder, and looking down the city, anyone who was smashed down by the rolling wood was either dead or seriously injured! This rolling log is worthy of a sharp weapon for defending the city. Seeing that the rolling wood that was put down smashed to death many Yuan Jun, Liu Beijun at the head of the city gave out a burst of cheers at this time, and then they joined forces to overturn all of the ladders that were set up at the head of the city.
The drums of the Yuan army were loud again, and the Yuan army surged up like a tide. The group that had just besieged the city had all withdrawn. With the addition of the new force, the pressure on the head of the city has increased again.
Ding Feng's voice was completely hoarse, he glanced at Jian Chen, and Jian Chen nodded at him from a distance. Ding Feng turned around and grabbed his own guard, and ordered him to quickly let the reserves under the city come up to the top!
The whole morning was spent in fierce battles, and Yuan's army never made it to the top of the city. Looking at the enemy troops retreating like a tide, Ding Feng and Chen Jian both had a feeling of being separated from the world.
"General Ding, do they still attack the city?" Chen Jian looked at the dead corpses all over the ground and some injured but not dead soldiers moaning in a pile of corpses, his face was unusually ugly.
"Yuan's army suffered a lot of casualties today, I'm afraid I won't come to attack the city again, but just in case, I'll still stay at the head of the city!" Ding Feng said in a hoarse voice.
Jian Chen shook his head and said, "I'll defend the city, you go and rest first." At this moment, the three generals are seriously injured, and you are the only one general in the city, so you must not fall again! ”
When Ding Feng heard Jian Chen say this, he had to nod and withdraw from the city with his personal guards. Han Fei had already woken up at this time, and he was not angry at Mi Fang for knocking him unconscious, because at this moment he was thinking about how he could help defend the city and reduce the casualties on his side.
By the way, you can use fishing nets! Of course, barbed wire would be better, but it's obviously too late to make it now. Fishing nets are ready-made. Han Fei thought about it and didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly called Mi Fang and asked him to arrange for someone to collect the fishing nets quickly. At this time, Ding Feng returned, and Han Fei simply asked about the situation in the city head and asked him to go to rest quickly.
Mi Fang is very efficient. In one hour, more than a dozen fishing nets were found, enough for this part of the city wall. Han Fei ordered people to find a lot of spears, and then ran to the top of the city with fishing nets and spears.
At this time, all the soldiers at the head of the city were lying on the ground, and some of them had fallen asleep from exhaustion. Han Fei immediately ordered a few fires to be raised at the head of the city, if there was no fire in the city, these soldiers would have to get sick! Jian Chen saw Han Fei hurriedly coming over and asked, "Why did you come up again, Strategist?" ”
"Chen Taishou don't have to worry, I'm here to give you a sharp weapon to defend the city!" Han Fei said with a smile.
"Oh? I'll see what a weapon it is! Chen Jian was interested when he heard this, and then said.
Han Fei pointed to the fishing net on the ground and said, "This is it!" ”
"Fishing nets?" Jian Chen was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Han Fei wanted to use this object.
Han Fei smiled and didn't explain, he first asked Mi Fang to lead people to connect all the fishing nets together, and then used spears to prop them all up and fix them on the city wall. Three spears in a group, even so, Han Fei still felt that it was not reliable enough. The whole process lasted more than an hour, and finally all the spears were fixed. At this time, the head of the city had changed greatly, and the fishing nets were shrouded outside the city walls, and if you wanted to get to the top of the city, you had to go over the fishing nets.
Han Fei looked at his masterpiece and nodded, "That's all there is to do for now." These spears are not very reliable, and it is better to hold them in place with thicker iron rods. ”
Chen Jian looked at the fishing net that was propped up, and he was shocked and didn't know what to say. "In this way, wouldn't the city wall be raised a foot out of thin air!"
"Not only that, not to mention that the thin hooks on the net will hook the people who climb up, but these nets will be Yuan Jun's nightmare!" A cold light flashed in Han Fei's eyes.
Jian Chen is also a smart person, and as soon as Han Fei said it, he understood. Indeed, it is easy to stab the enemy soldiers who climb up as long as they pass through the mesh. The only thing to worry about is whether the net is secure, and whether the net is not strong. Everything still depends on the effect of siege warfare.
The Yuan army did not attack the city that afternoon, perhaps because the losses in the morning were too great, or the Yuan army had consumed too much physical strength and needed to rest. Anyway, Liu Beijun can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Han Fei saw that there was nothing to do in the city, so he returned to the Taishou Mansion.
As soon as he came back, someone came to report to him, Zhang Fei had to go to the city to defend the city! Han Fei was speechless for a while, he quickly came to Zhang Fei's room, only to see that Zhang Fei had already gotten off the bed and was sitting at the table drinking water.
As soon as he saw Han Fei, he said, "Fei boy, why don't you let me go to the city!" ”
Han Fei looked at him and didn't answer, just waved his hand, and the maids all retreated. Han Fei sat opposite Zhang Fei and said, "I can understand the mood of the three generals, but your current body can't fight yet!" ”
"Fei boy, your third master ......"
"One day, one more day off! I'm going to let you kill you tomorrow night! Han Fei looked at Zhang Fei and said calmly.
"Okay, then the third master will believe you again!"
"Don't worry! This time it's time to end this war! As he spoke, a cold light flashed in Han Fei's eyes.
