Chapter 499: Backsliding on the City Like This?

Bai Dahai is one of the captains of the Tuyuhun King City Guard, and he is responsible for defending the head of the city in the southwest corner of Fuyu City.

Three days ago, when 50,000 people came down from the city to call for battle, Bai Dahai sweated in his heart, not afraid of the other party's numbers, but afraid of the other party's tricks, there were no reinforcements in a lonely city in Fu Qi City, if it was besieged for a year or two, it would definitely be over.

Fortunately, the Khan was witty and provoked his opponent to attack the city quickly, which made everyone feel a little at ease.

But there are often a lot of strange things, how can the army of Datang be good at bluffing in addition to being elusive? Didn't you say that you should attack hard? It's been three days, and they're only camping in the south of Fu Qi City, and there's no hint of siege.

Could it be that he has rebelled and wants to besiege the city? It's not like it, because the other party is only camped on one side, and there is no encirclement on all sides, which makes the defenders of the city baffled and caused a lot of uneasiness.

One of the soldiers asked, "Haitou, what do you mean by these people in the city?" It's not just a couple of harsh words to scare us, is it? ”

Bai Dahai's eyes were stunned, and he said seriously: "What does the little rabbit cub know, the generals below are not ordinary people, when people become famous, you are still playing with mud, I don't know what they want to do, but I'm afraid this Fuqi City is ......"

"Shh......h

Haitou whispered, let the general hear that it will cure you for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army. "This soldier is also kind.

Bai Dahai nodded and didn't say more, but remembering that day when he heard the name of Li Yuanba, the king of Chu, he recalled the memories of the troubled times in the early years, that was a figure who dared to fight the heavens and the earth, and there was no place in the world that he couldn't go.

A dark-skinned soldier next to him sighed: "I want to end this battle quickly, no matter whether I win or lose, I don't want to be locked in the cage of Fu Qi City." ”

"Dahei, why don't you ...... it?"

"My family is outside the city, and my eldest brother is still serving as a soldier in Tuob City in the north, Tang Jun said that he has taken it, and I don't know what happened to my family and eldest brother, I want to go back and see them." The soldier named Dahei sighed.

Hearing this explanation, everyone was silent, not only Da Hei's home was outside the city, but who was not the one who was paid as a soldier here? The city is inhabited by rich and noble families, unless they are too poor to have no choice, who will come to be a big soldier and be born and die?

Bai Dahai looked at this group of soldiers who were gradually wearing out their fighting spirit and fighting spirit, and sighed in his heart, Tuyuhun's chances of victory were reduced by two percent.

At this moment, a soldier exclaimed: "Haitou, look, the Tang army is moving, moving, they are going to attack the city." ”

Everyone looked towards the Datang military camp opposite, only to see that the door of the opposite camp was wide open, and two teams of cavalry lined up slowly walked out, and then a huge black thing slowly came out of it, which looked like a door panel, but they didn't know what it was.

"No, aren't they supposed to attack the city? Why do you want to get a door panel out? Da Hei asked puzzled.

Bai Dahai shook his head and said: "That shouldn't be the door panel, looking at that length, it should be used to cross the moat, I didn't expect that there would be such a skilled craftsman in the Tang Army, and it took three days to build a huge bridge deck that is twice as long as the suspension bridge."

It's just very strange, since ancient times, the siege of the city has been carried by soldiers with sand and soil to fill the river, and the city is strong, and this board is used to cross the river? How many people can come? How do you escape when the siege is not going well and you retreat? Strange! ”

In the puzzled eyes of the Tuyuhun defenders at the head of the city, the door panel of the Tang army quickly came towards Fu Qi City, at this time the cavalry guards on both sides had stopped and stopped advancing, and there was only one door panel in the whole field, and even the Tang army brigade that followed the cavalry stopped in the distance and watched.

Two quarters of an hour later, this huge door panel finally entered the attack range of the defenders at the head of the city, and the defenders did not dare to slack off, and immediately commanded a wave of arrows, but what arrows could shoot through the door panel that could be used as a bridge deck?

There were no less than a hundred people walking slowly below, and everyone was hiding underneath, and the door panel was the best shield.

The arrows fired on both sides were firmly blocked by the shields of the soldiers in charge of guarding below, and a rain of arrows did not have the slightest effect except to verify the solidity of the door board.

The Tuyuhun defenders could only watch as the other party slowly lifted the door panel on the moat.

"The army listens to the order, be careful and vigilant, this is the trick of the Tang army, as soon as they get out of the wooden bridge, ten thousand arrows will be fired, and all of them will be left."

The guard was unhappy in his heart, thinking that no matter how strong your turtle shell is, won't you come out after building the bridge? When you come out from below, it will be your time of death.

But the reality is completely different from what he expected, for this operation, the staff camp in the Tang Dynasty has not worked hard, with the participation of elite disciples of the Mo family, it only took two days to make this bridge, and the idea of designing this idea was studied by everyone for a whole day, until everyone felt that it was foolproof before they took action.

When the Tang soldiers put the door panel on the other side of the moat, everyone slowly withdrew from behind the door panel, and the defenders at the head of the city just wanted to shout and release arrows, but saw that these people were so shameless, one by one holding shields and retreating? Do you carry the door panel and the shield on your back?

Then how did an iron turtle come out from under the door panel? It was a small black iron shell, only three steps wide and four steps long, and half a man high.

When the black iron shell was withdrawn, there was a loud bang, and the Tang army put down the end of the door panel, and a temporary river crossing bridge that was stronger than the suspension bridge of Fu Qicheng was built.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Ten thousand arrows were fired at the head of the city, but the two hundred or so people under the city had already formed a small circle, and all of them raised their shields, like a hemispherical iron shell, and quickly retreated.

Leaving only the small iron shell that had just run out from under the door panel, he slowly climbed the suspension bridge, crossed the moat, and went straight to the south gate of the city.

"This is a conspiracy of the Tang army, quickly, release arrows, no, use stones, you can't let them attack the city gate, and the city gate will send another two hundred people, it must be stabilized.

The big rock was about to smash the iron shell. The city guard panicked, and there was a great uneasiness in his heart.

But this iron shell was an elaborate hemispherical shape, covered with a half-finger-thick iron sheet, and inside was a hardwood skeleton, although there were only four people in it, but the falling rocks smashed all of them to the side, and everyone watched as the small iron turtle quickly slipped into the city gate.

The Tuyuhun soldiers guarding the city gate felt strange, why didn't they see the other party attacking the city gate? So what did they do when they came into the gate hole? Do you want to make a hole from underneath?

Four Tang soldiers came out of the iron shell, in groups of twos and twos, and soon began to make holes with axes and chisels in the walls on both sides of the city gate.

A quarter of an hour later, there was a hole and a half meters deep on both sides, the size of a football, and all four of them were from stonemasons, otherwise it would be difficult for ordinary people to do this.

Then a few people took out two black balls the size of a football, this is the thunder developed by Datang, according to the formula given by Bai Fan, Daomen developed a high-efficiency gunpowder, not the so-called soil black powder can be compared.

After burying the thunder, the lead was left two meters long, and several people quickly retracted into their own small iron shell, took out the fire fold, lit the lead and ran away, carrying the small iron shell as fast as possible.

The defenders at the head of the city were stunned, seeing that this little iron turtle was running as fast as a beetle, and for a while they even forgot to say that they were shooting arrows, and even many people were laughing as fun, this Datang is really stupid, is it just to use an iron turtle to test it?

Two in a row in the morning, please support.
