Chapter 792: The Liaoxia Coalition Army Attacking the City (First Update)

Chapter 792

"Strive to take Youzhou City within one day, and let the world see the courage of my invincible army in Daliao." Yelu and Lu Wei held the hilt of the knife at their waists, standing proudly, behind them, countless generals of the Liaoxia coalition army responded loudly, and even some leaders of the northern tribes excitedly drew their swords and howled wildly.

Seeing this scene, quite Chao Xinde also echoed and raised his arm to howl twice, then turned his head and looked at Youzhou City in a dull manner.

These sophisticated and extremely sharp siege ordnance were not made by the Liao State, but were made after nearly half a year of hard work in Great Xia and countless amounts of money and food.

But now, it will only become a tiptoe stone for the success of the Liao people, who has made the current national strength of Daxia decline to the point of sting.

I only hope that after regaining the three states, Daxia will be able to lie down and taste the courage in order to revive and prosper in the future.

Above the city, Wang Yang and the others looked at those siege ordnance as majestic and hideous as ancient giant beasts with an unusually relaxed expression. In Wang Yang's eyes, these things are like the silver wax spear head and the vase on the wall calendar, which are useless.

"General, in your opinion, when will they attack?" After Wang Yang looked at it for a long time, he asked the old driver next to him.

Seed Master He frowned, and after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head and said. "It's hard to say, if I am the commander of the Liao State, then I would prefer to let these things show off for two more days, and let people shout at the city every day, so that the morale of the other party will plummet, and when the time comes, I will make a big move, and the four doors ......will be pressed together."

"However, it is also very likely that the offensive will be launched after these siege equipment arrive at the gates, after all, the enemy attacks and defends, and the initiative is not in our hands."

"Well, General Liang, how are your people doing? Do you know the flag language by heart......" After Wang Yang nodded, his eyes turned and fell on Liang Zuo, who was not far away, and asked in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, my lord, the brothers have already remembered it, and they are repeating the drill all the time, and there will be no problems." Liang Zuo confidently assured Wang Yang loudly.

"Well, remember, whether we can hold Youzhou at the lowest cost depends on whether our Yuanyou stone thrower can destroy the opponent's siege ordnance. And whether the Yuanyou stone-throwing machine can hit or not, it depends on your pair of eyes, whether you can give the Yuanyou stone-throwing machine a clear direction indication. ”

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, if something goes wrong, you don't need to order the end of the general's sin, and the end will cut off his head first." Liang Zuo said with confidence.

He was very excited and surging in his heart, because he really didn't expect that Wang Yang would actually delegate such an important task as commanding the Yuanyou stone throwing machine to his head.

Since the day he received this mission, Liang Zuo has led his brothers to practice day and night, long before the arrival of the Liaoxia coalition army, they can already clearly identify the flags standing on the top of the city from each firing point in the firelight, both day and night, and report the precise angle and height.

Of course, the telescope developed by Wang Dacai is indispensable, and as for the flag that only needs to be signaled to play the height and angle of the flag, it is definitely a simple and clear flag, if you can't get it right after so many days of training.

Wang Daguan can consider the possibility of direct substitution, after all, if he can't train for so many days, even if they let these flag bearers and signal observers have a stewed pig's brain every day, they can't make up for the shortage of IQ.

"In this case, starting today, all the officers and men on duty must be on standby at twelve o'clock, and the officers and men of each gate must not leave their posts without permission. Also, tell the medical hall and get ready to go...... Be prepared to receive the wounded, and ask them how the trained medics are doing. ”

Even those large siege ordnance are no longer the biggest threat to Youzhou City, but they only reduce their threat to Youzhou.

However, as long as the other party starts to attack, under the siege of hundreds of thousands of horses, how can the soldiers in Youzhou City not suffer casualties.

Time, little by little, in the blink of an eye, the sky has already entered the night, the moon rises, and gradually sets in the west, the Liaoxia army outside the four gates of Youzhou has been quietly assembled, and the siege equipment such as rushing cars, stone throwing vehicles, ladders, and crash vehicles that have been placed in front of the camp have long been ready to go, in addition, there are more than hundreds of simple wooden ladders have been prepared.

"Your Highness, it's ...... time," a guard who was waiting in the tent, watching the copper kettle dripping, rushed to the side of His Royal Highness the prince and reported loudly.

After Yelu and Lu Wei bowed slightly, their eyes fell on Xiao Ruoguang, the commander of the army in front of them. "General Xiao, this marshal is here today to wish you success."

"Your Highness, rest assured, the sons and daughters under the command of the last general will definitely become the first batch of warriors to climb the city wall of Youzhou." After the burly and tall Xiao Ruoguang saluted Yelu and Lu Wei, he turned over and jumped on the horse, waving his big hand.

The three thousand elite soldiers who were originally silent and solemn in the darkness held a knife in one hand, carried a wooden ladder on their shoulders, and began to walk towards the city, and behind them, there were more than 10,000 soldiers, mixed with this wave of rushing cars and stone throwing vehicles, slowly pressing forward.

When the distance from the city wall was less than a mile, the soldier in charge of the urn at the foot of the city wall quickly opened the cover plate above his head and shouted loudly. "A lot of footsteps are approaching the walls!"

"Beat the drum, rocket warning!" Soon, it only took a few breaths for the alarm to reach the ears of the defending generals above the city, and the generals who were lying on the armor and dozing against the female wall rose directly and shouted loudly.

Soon, one by one, the rockets crossed the night sky, flying high in the sky, and then slowly fell, one, two, finally illuminated a place, and I saw that countless Liaoxia coalition troops were carrying wooden ladders, rushing towards the city wall.

The rumbling drums thundered like thunder, and more and more torches were lit on the top of the city, and then moved to the rear to prevent the city from becoming too bright and the defenders became targets for the attackers.

Behind the city wall, a large number of elite border soldiers wearing iron armor began to climb the city, mixed with those soldiers wearing paper armor.

The main burden of the van soldiers is long-range attacks, and the tasks of close combat are to be handed over to these border soldiers with more combat experience.

Yelu and Lu Wei narrowed their eyes and looked at the flickering firelight of the city, and in their sight, there were a few shadows that blocked the light of the city, and those shadows were left by the behemoth that was higher than the city wall.

And this time, like the other three gates, five rushing cars were also dispatched from the east gate, and among the camp, there were still ten rushing vehicles, not Yelu and Lu Wei were stingy.

It's that it's too precious, and if it's damaged, it's slow and difficult to repair. The goal of the Liaoxia coalition army is not only Youzhou, but also Hongzhou, Yanzhou, and maybe other cities on the Shaanxi Road of the Song Kingdom.
