After turning the top floor of the ladder car into a sea of fire, the flames continued to rage, like a blazing spirit snake, under the help of grease and other fire-igniting things, it quickly rushed to the bottom of the ladder, and most of the ladder cars were ignited at once.

Another ladder cart on another section of the city wall also received the same treatment, and was directly burned down by the defenders using fire.

Together with a large number of Bai Bo soldiers on the ladder car, they were also burned to death by the flames and burned a large area, and with these two flame tower-like behemoths, the temperature on the battlefield outside the city was also heating up rapidly, and the Bai Bo soldiers who were originally rushing to the ladder car first fled back desperately.

Seeing that the long-planned attack of the Bai Bo soldiers was disintegrated by their own fire attack, the defenders on the city wall all cheered loudly.

In the cheers of the soldiers, Cao Yuan's originally tense face gradually relaxed, but he saw that on the chariot outside the city, although the golden-armored soldier also saw that his two ladder carts were burned by the defenders in Linfen City, the drumming action in his hand did not slow down at all, but accelerated again.

In the rumbling drums, those Bai Bo soldiers who retreated in a hurry, after fleeing to the rear of the formation, were driven and gathered by Qu Chang, Tun General and others in the rear, and formed three square formations in the chaos.

The soldiers and horses in the rear slowly moved and turned into the front army, intending to continue to storm Linfen City.

Cao Yuan saw the momentum of the White Wave Army and planned to continue the offensive, his brows furrowed slightly, today's White Wave Army was a little abnormal, not only all kinds of siege equipment took turns to fight, but also did not hesitate to suffer casualties, forced to attack, and made a posture of vowing to take Linfen City.

This is very different from the combat style of the White Polish Army in the past!

Although this doubt arose in Cao Yuan's heart, but seeing that the second wave of Bai Bo's onslaught was coming, Cao Yuan didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly commanded the soldiers and civilian servants on standby on the city wall to send the casualties to the city for treatment, and then sent soldiers to several sections of the weak city wall to supplement and consolidate the defense.

Troops are being dispatched on the city wall here, and the Bai Bo sergeants, who have become the front army, are also continuing to move forward.

Most of their ladders and battering rams have been destroyed in the previous round of siege warfare, and now they are pushing out three punching cars, two of which are two large and one is small, and the small one is obviously completed in a temporary hurry, and in terms of materials and volume, it is not as good as the other two large punching vehicles.

The overall structure of this chariot is like a pointed wooden house, which is extremely strong, with wooden wheels underneath, and the top layer is covered with cowhide to prevent the destruction of arrows and stones by the guards of the city, and in order to prevent fire attacks, the white soldiers also poured mud on it.

Although the Bai Bo army was not able to have the luxury of wrapping the outer and top floors of the two ladder trucks with cowhide, the army could barely support the materials of the three rushing trucks by wrapping the outer layer of the three rushing wooden houses.

On the other hand, on the side of the defenders, in order to attack the battering ram of the white soldiers, all the rocks on the city wall have been pushed down the wall, and the other small pieces of masonry cannot actually damage the rushing cars, let alone destroy them all.

The three Bai Bo Army's chariots continued to advance, and the Bai Bo soldiers hiding under the steeple wooden hut shouted the trumpet, and they all worked together to push the chariot towards the direction of Linfen City Gate, and because the periphery of the chariot was covered with cowhide and poured mud, the damage of the rocket to it could be said to be minimal, and even before the arrow cluster pierced into the thick cowhide, it had been extinguished by the mud and the flames were extinguished by the mud and bounced out in other directions.

Cao Yuan looked at the three rushing cars, and the shoddy small rushing car behind him was left alone for the time being, but the two big rushing cars in front of him were really threatening the city gate of Linfen.

Even if there is a huge rock on the city wall in this section of the city gate, because the structure of the spire wooden house on the top floor of the Bai Bo army's rushing car is difficult to really smash the rushing car directly.

Although the inner side of Linfen's city gate has been sealed with earth and stones, once Linfen's city gate is broken by a rushing car, the large influx of Bai Bo soldiers can still quickly clear the soil and stones, and clear a way into the city for their army.

Therefore, it was necessary to destroy all three of these vehicles before the White Polish army's chariots destroyed the city gates.

Cao Yuan watched the Bai Bojun's chariot getting closer and closer to the city wall, and he ordered the soldiers on the city wall not to spare their crossbow arrows, and to shoot the Bai Bo soldiers guarding both sides of the chariot, even if they could not destroy the chariot, but they should try to delay the advance speed of the chariot.

On the other hand, Cao Yuan ordered that the tiger head who was resting under the city should lead the elite of the 100 Xiliang army who were waiting in formation, listen to the horn sound on his city head, and once the horn on behalf of the attack sounded, he would immediately lead people to kill the generals from the protrusion gate reserved for this side of the city wall, and set fire to all the three rushing cars.

After the two big chariots in front of them arrived at the city gate one after another, the crossbow arrows on the head of the city were also a lot more dense at once, and most of these people were strong crossbows with three stones, the crossbow arrows were strong, and the penetrating power was full, and the white boshi pawn holding the shield was still easily hit by the crossbow arrows to penetrate the shield and pierce the body.

"Blow the trumpet, attack!"

After Cao Yuan saw that the defense force of Bai Bo's rushing car was weakened, he knew that time could not be lost, and hurriedly ordered the sergeant to blow the horn and attack immediately.

"Woo woo - kill!"

In the desolate sound of the horn, the protruding gate of this section of the city wall of Linfen was opened instantly, and when the tiger head ordered by Cao Yuan let out a shout, he took a hundred elites of the Xiliang Army who were armed with armor, carrying the things that ignited the fire and firewood, and shouted out, and rushed straight to the Baibo army.

Bai Bo soldiers did not expect that there was a protrusion gate in this section of the Linfen city wall, and when they occupied Linfen City, it was obvious that there was no such city defense setting, which was Cao Yuan after taking over the city defense of Linfen, under the instruction of Yan Xing, recruited craftsmen and civilian servants, and spent a lot of time and energy to excavate and disguise it.

Caught off guard, the defense of the Bai Bo soldiers was suddenly dispersed by the elite of the Xiliang Army like a tiger descending from the mountain, and the purpose of these elites of the Xiliang Army was also very clear, not to kill and injure Bai Bo soldiers in large quantities, but to quickly burn the three rushing cars that threatened the city gate.

Some of them continued to attack the white soldiers, killing them one after another, and some of them rushed to the bottom of the steeple wooden hut of the rushing cart, brandished their swords, cut down the white pawns who were lightly armed and pushed and pulled the rushing cart, lit the flames, and burned the rushing chariot.

Once ignited, the fire grew stronger and stronger, and the flames kept coming out from the inside, and the Xiliang sergeant quickly burned one and then quickly burned another big car.

When they burned the third small rushing car, the Bai Bo soldiers who escaped and were scattered were also under the command of the general, and the formation began to defend against the impact of the Xiliang army, fighting to the death, defending the last rushing car, the two sides could not hold on for a while, although the Xiliang soldiers fought hard, but they could not break through to the rushing car to ignite the fire.

And more Bai Bo soldiers were braving the dense rain of arrows on the city, speeding up to this side, trying to outflank from both sides, cut off the back road of this young man who risked his life to go out of the city and burn the rushing Xiliang army, and then kill them all under the city, in order to avenge the large number of their own soldiers in front of them who were shot and burned to death.

Tiger Head with the elite of the Xiliang Army, unable to break through the defense line set by the Baibo Army in a short period of time, and his eyes turned to a large number of Baibo soldiers on both sides of the speed to rush over, he was anxious, thinking that he would fight to the death without avoiding the blade, crashing into the shield in front of him, and killing a bloody way for the soldiers behind.

At this time, there was another gong on the head of the city, and the tiger head and the other elite spirits of the Xiliang army were shocked, knowing that this was the originally set retreat signal, so there was another shout, the soldiers attacking in the front row held shields to resist the Bai Bo soldiers, and the Xiliang soldiers in the back row untied the firewood and hay, and threw it directly after igniting it, although it was impossible to burn the last rushing car directly, but it was also very effective to block the footsteps of the other Bai Bo soldiers to pursue and reduce the burden on their own soldiers.

These elites of the Xiliang army, all of whom have followed Yan Xing for a long time and have been veterans of the battle formation for a long time, were imposing like a rainbow when attacking, and when they retreated, they were also orderly, cooperating with each other before and after, and soon under the cover of bows and arrows at the head of the city, they broke through the gates from several places and retreated into Linfen City in batches.

Cao Yuan waited until the elite of the Xiliang army outside the city retreated into the city from the outburst, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers in the city to use earth, stones, and sandbags to seal all the exposed outbursts, and strictly ordered the soldiers not to attack from this again.

Although it was just a short assault just now, the elite side of the Xiliang Army was with fewer enemies, even though everyone was wearing armor and holding soldiers, brave and fearless, but after all, it was also flesh and blood, in order to burn down the two big rushing cars, more than 20 corpses were left on the battlefield, and many others were also injured.

These are the elites of Yan Marching's army, one less dead, and it cannot be replenished in a hurry, just now Cao Yuan was on the head of the city, watching every soldier on his side who went out of the city fighting bloody, seriously injured and falling, his heart couldn't help but twitch.

Therefore, after seeing that the two big rushing cars that posed the greatest threat to the city gate had been burned by the elite of the Xiliang Army led by the tiger head, other Bai Bo soldiers were pouring in this direction in large numbers, and it was hopeless for the tiger head to break through the defense line that the Bai Bo army had stabilized, so Cao Yuan decisively gave the order to retreat.

The remaining small rushing car is not a big threat to the city gate, and it is not large enough, at most, it will cost some bricks and fires, and it will always be able to destroy it, and it is really not worth it to lose the elite of the Xiliang army, including Hutou and others, on this small rushing car.

You must know that this siege war is far from stopping!

···

In the follow-up siege war, although Bai Bo soldiers were still attacking the city with a large number of ants, the initiative to control the battle situation was always firmly in the hands of Cao Yuan, although the Bai Bo army was able to use wheel warfare to attack in batches many times, consuming the strength of the defenders at the head of the city, but in the end it was still unable to successfully break through the city defense.

After leaving the corpses all over the ground, the Bai Bo army finally sounded the horn of retreat in the afterglow of the afternoon, and a large number of Bai Bo soldiers retreated to their own barracks one after another.

After a fierce battle, they finally repelled the attack of the Baibo army, which far outnumbered their own side, and the Linfen defenders on the city wall were naturally ecstatic, and they all shouted loudly, venting their complicated and excited feelings in their hearts.

After the soldiers who fought bloody battles retreated from the Baibo army besieging the city, they could finally take a breath of air, relax a little, and trim and wash it well, but Cao Yuan, who also commanded the defense of the city, was not able to stop.

He must speed up the inspection of other sections of the city wall, repair the city defense in time, replenish the city defense equipment, clean up the blood stains on the city wall, boost the morale of the soldiers who defend the city, reward the soldiers who fought bravely, and comfort the wounded soldiers.

All the way from the city wall to the city, Cao Yuan happened to meet the tiger head with a wounded cloth on his left arm, he led the team to assault out of the city, burned the white wave army's rushing car, because in order to speed up the breakthrough to kill the enemy, rushed to the forefront, accidentally hit an arrow on the left arm, although relying on the thickness of the armor, no serious injury, but also shed a lot of blood, follow-up need recuperation, to be able to completely heal.

"Fortunately, Bai Boshi's offensive is not well coordinated, if those rushing cars arrived at the same time as those ladder cars not long ago, then I am afraid that even if I lead the team to break out of the city, it is really easy to get close to the side of those rushing cars, and it will be even more difficult to burn them!"

The tiger head looked at his injured arm, and said to Cao Yuan that he was lucky, and Cao Yuan nodded silently after listening to the tiger head's words.

Tiger Head is right, when the previous situation was critical, it was indeed as he said, if those rushing cars and ladder cars arrived at the same time, then the defenders on the city wall would do their best to deal with the Bai Bo soldiers on the ladder cars, it would already be a very difficult thing, where could they divide the soldiers and Zhang Shi to support the elite of the Xiliang army who were protruding from the city and burning the rushing cars.

And once there is that kind of situation, this Linfen City will not be far from the time of the fall.

However, while Cao Yuan felt the same way as the tiger head's words, he also remembered the doubts that had popped up in the city before.

Today's Bai Bo army is contrary to the usual, the offensive is extremely fierce, even to the point of casualties, after the two ladder cars were burned, the morale of the Bai Bo soldiers who besieged the city has declined, but also in advance to sacrifice their own big killing weapons, desperate to launch an attack, which made Cao Yuan, who was cautious by nature and acted calmly, feel the luck of victory, but also raised a trace of unusual vigilance.

The White Polish Army's siege of the city today seems to have other plans.

Cao Kite's deep eyes slowly moved down from the injured arm of the tiger's head to the combat boots that were still stained with blood and mud.

"Not good!"

Cao Kite screamed secretly, and the heart in his chest slammed violently.
