Chapter 146: Battle (2)

"What kind of weapon did the Tang thief use, it was so powerful, let the soldiers of the corner tower use trebuchets and giant crossbows to return it, and everyone else scattered!" Lin Yiguo's general Aba also said angrily.

The situation of the war changed rapidly, and no one expected that in just a few moments, Lin Yiguo had already killed and injured nearly a hundred soldiers.

The soldiers on the corner tower of the city adjusted the trebuchets and wolf poison arrows and aimed them at the trebuchets and artillery carts in the rear of the Tang army.

Five stones as big as a millstone were thrown from the air, because the corner tower was already standing on the commanding heights, so the Tang army's catapults and artillery trucks were hit by two, and the stones that fell also turned the soldiers who touched them into flesh.

But this is not over, compared with the blind fight of the trebuchet, the giant crossbow is much more accurate, as soon as the string is broken, the wolf poison arrow as thick as a thigh is shot into the Tang army camp by the giant crossbow.

The fierce wind sounded, and seeing the arrival of the wolf poison arrow, Tang Jun raised the round shield, but he didn't expect that under the power of the giant crossbow, the shield made of cooked cowhide was vulnerable, and it pierced more than a dozen people like a skewer and nailed it to the ground.

But it was only a wolf poison arrow, and nearly twenty giant crossbows were laid down in the entire corner tower of the city.

Seeing this, Li Xiaogong, who was in the Chinese army, his face remained unchanged, and he continued to order the front army to suppress the formation.

The soldiers of Linyi on the horse side of the city drew their bows and shot arrows, but with little effect, all the arrows hit the giant shield, and only a few accurately hit the vital parts of the Tang soldiers.

When they reached the moat, the Tang soldiers threw sandbags into the moat, and the huge shield was erected on the sandbags to make a flat path for the rushing cars to approach.

The chariot is also called Linchong or the opposite building, it is an armored siege weapon, which can be used to destroy the city gate and city wall, it has eight wheels, a total of five layers, the lowest layer is the soldiers who push the car forward, and the other four layers are loaded with siege soldiers. The vehicle is about 12 meters high, 6 meters wide and 8 meters long.

The chariot uses its height to shoot directly into the city from the car, and can also be used to approach the city wall, destroy the battlement wall, and directly attack the defenders on the city wall. In addition to being equipped with a variety of long weapons, the car is often loaded with heavy weapons such as crossbows and stone cannons.

Seeing that the rushing car was approaching, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Xiaogong's mouth.

It's just a barbarian.

Even if you are given time to prepare, it is just a mantis arm as a car!

"Throw fire oil, gold juice, and rolling wood and stones!" Lin Yi Guo Shou shouted.

The iron pot on the head of the city wall, which was boiling with foul-smelling feces and dung, the smell was overwhelming, and the soldiers of Lin Yiguo dumped the iron pot, and suddenly the Tang army sounded the sound of wolves crying and howling.

The lethality of the gold juice is not great, but it carries a large number of germs, and it is basically hit by the gold juice, and the gods are helpless.

The giant shield of the front army of the Tang Army split into several cracks, and a pair of troops carrying cloud ladders rushed out of it, and there were hooks in the front section of the cloud ladder, which were hung directly on the wall, which could not be pushed down by hand.

The most effective way to do this is to roll the wood.

The soldiers of the Linyi Kingdom in the city were even more ruthless, pouring a layer of hot oil on the rolling logs, and then lit a hot fire and threw it on the ladder.

It is human nature to avoid fire.

Before many Tang soldiers had not yet touched the rolling logs, they jumped down from mid-air and smashed their bodies to pieces.

But at this moment, the rush is also slowly approaching.

"Throw a grenade!" Lieutenant Tang shouted inside the rushing car.

The front section of the car slowly stretched out a wooden folding board, erected on the wall, forming a short bridge, and the soldiers in the car also rushed to the wall from the short bridge, and everyone took out a wooden handle grenade from their waists and threw it hard.

Boom boom boom~

The sound of explosions reverberated over the city walls, and the walls of the city walls also collapsed a little, revealing the scene inside the city.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Tang Army refused to delay the fighters at all, and the rich remuneration for their exploits was enough to make them lose their minds.

In the exposed city wall, the soldiers of Linyi Kingdom desperately blocked the gap with their flesh and blood, and the other part of the soldiers also hurriedly built the urn city with sandbags and gravel to stitch the gap.

The division of defense of the city was orderly.

From dawn to afternoon, the war was stalemate, and although the Tang army forcibly climbed the city wall several times, it was killed by the soldiers of Linyi State within a few seconds.

And the several gaps exposed have also become war meat grinders, which are very miserable, and the corpses of the soldiers blocked in the gaps have been blocked with water.

"Withdraw!" Li Xiaogong frowned slightly and said calmly.

"King Chu, as long as the Tang army holds on for another hour, the city wall of Zhancheng will definitely be captured!" A general suggested.

Li Xiaogong shook his head and said with a smile: "You only know one, you don't know the other, the war is going on so far, you can already see the strong resistance of the people of Linyi, and their defense is not disorderly, even if they capture the city wall, they will inevitably fall into the laneway battle inside the city, even if they win, our Tang army will suffer heavy losses, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

"What about the prince?"

"Wait! Wait for them to go out of the city and fight us to the death! Li Xiaogong said.

As soon as his voice fell, he only heard the whining horn sound from the west side of the battlefield, and the ground trembled instantly, and countless tall elephant soldiers continued to appear.

The banner is marked with two big characters.

"Retreat, retreat to the northwest, to Huangfeng Ridge!" Li Xiaogong gave a military order.

The standard-bearers of the Chinese army began to direct the army to retreat to the northwest, but as the retreat took longer, the internal chaos of the Tang army became more and more chaotic, like a rabble.

But those who really have the ability to see that when retreating, it seems to be chaotic, but in fact it is orderly in chaos.

After all, Li Xiaogong has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is a great person.

"Prince, the reinforcements of the Zhenla Kingdom have arrived, should we take advantage of the victory to pursue them?" A general of Lin Yiguo asked.

"Will there be fraud?" Abe was also worried.

As the general who defended the city and the prince of Linyi, he was responsible for the expectations of hundreds of thousands of people in Linyi.

Therefore, every step of the decision cannot be wrong, after all, the Tang army can afford to lose, and if Lin Yi Kingdom fails once, it will be a disaster of national destruction.

"Prince, you see that the banner of the Tang Army has been in chaos, and the follow-up soldiers only know how to flee for their lives.

"Well, you lead 30,000 soldiers to encircle the Tang army with the Zhenla Kingdom, and this time you will definitely destroy the Tang Army and protect my mother country." Abe sighed.

"Obey the prince's mission!" General Lin Yiguo said excitedly that the opportunity to show his ambitions was coming, and he would be the hero of Lin Yiguo's attention at that time.

On the other side, Li Xiaogong, who was fleeing, stopped at Huangfengling.

Huangfeng Ridge is flat and there is no shelter around.

He is here to wait for the armies of the Zhenla Kingdom and the Linyi Kingdom.

The Tang army could not fall into a never-ending attrition with soldiers from other countries, they needed a general battle to directly destroy the living forces of the Linyi country.

"All the queues of the God Barracks, come out to fight!" Li Xiaogong snorted.

All the efforts in the early stage are here.
