The second chapter, Lao Bing has been fighting for six hours in a row, for the sake of promise, there is still one last chapter left, fight!

Under the tall city walls, corpses were piled up near and far, and after a thousand paces, the Tiefutu began to rush back and forth in the scale of a hundred men to kill the disorganized Tiele and Uighur light cavalry, while the Tiele and Uighurs who escaped in time in the distance were shocked by the strength of the Tiefutu and did not dare to look back, but only watched the Tiefutu slaughter their companions.

On the city wall, the Turkic soldiers shouted frantically, excited by the strength of the Tiefutu, Ashina Yunlie looked at the Tiefutu and the Uighurs who looked at the city wall in the distance in horror, and the Tiele and Uighurs who did not dare to come, his eyes were full of doubts, and the scouts he sent outside the city once replied that among the combined forces of these Tiele and Uighurs, there was an army with the banner of Great Qin.

Ashina Yunlie was convinced that there was a Great Qin army stationed in the camp of Tiele and the Uighurs outside the city, otherwise, how could the Tiele people join forces with the Uighurs whom they had already conquered to invade the Turks, but if there was really a Great Qin army, how could they sit and watch the Tiefutu in front of them like this. Ashina Yunlie pondered, he always felt that things were not so simple, and there seemed to be some conspiracy in it.

Ran Min rode on his Zhulong horse, looking at the invincible Tiefutu in the distance, he couldn't help but be a little eager to try, his heavy Mo sword team had cut down the light cavalry, but he didn't know what would happen to these heavy cavalry?

"Almost!" Li Ang, who had spent three years in northern Xinjiang and had dealt with the tiger and leopard cavalry, knew very well that the time for real heavy cavalry to fight on the battlefield would never exceed one hour and two hours. Even if people can withstand the intensity of fighting, those war horses can't bear it. Now those Iron Floats are at the end of their power.

Hearing Li Ang's words, Chen Qingzhi waved his hand at the herald beside him, and then not long after, a horn sounded, Ma Jun and Murong Ke came out with the dragoons, and the black dragon flag soon flew in the hunting wind. Impacting the sight of the Turks on the Iron Float and the city walls.

"It's finally here!" On the city wall, looking at the black cavalry sweeping in, Ashina Yunlie's brows were furrowed, and from the orderly cavalry queue, he could see that it was the real Great Qin cavalry, and it was by no means something that the Tiele and Uighurs could disguise.

"Mingjin, collect the troops!" Ashina Yunlie looked at the herald beside him, and said in a deep voice, the Iron Floating Slaughter was built by him, and no one knew the Iron Floating Slaughter better than him. They no longer have the strength to fight, so instead of letting Ashina Chengqing order a retreat. It is better for him to come, so that Ashina Chengqing's reputation will not be flawed, and he will become a hero of the Turks, bringing confidence to everyone.

When he heard the sound of gold on the city wall, Ashina Chengqing looked at the black cavalry running in the distance, his eyes full of unwillingness. But he had to go back to the city, and the horses on which the Iron Float was riding were almost unable to run, and this battle could only wait for later.

The Tiefutu retreated to the city gate, and the Ma army and Murong Ke also led the dragoons to stop at a distance of 500 places from the city wall, which was just outside the range of the Turks' strong bows, anyway, they were just here to scare off the Tiefutu, and only needed to show it to the Tiele and Uighurs and the Turks.

On the city wall, the Turks did not think that it was the cavalry of Great Qin that scared off the Tiefutu, in their opinion, it was just Ashina Yunlie's cowardice. They began to cheer for Ashina Chengqing and Tiefutu, who had returned to the city, and their morale was high.

And outside the city. Although the Tiefu Massacre was extremely embarrassed, the morale of the Tiele and Uighurs was not greatly damaged, after all, they only sent cavalry here, and they were scared to retract the Tiefu Massacre just under the banner, and they had nothing to fear.

The Turks believed that they would achieve a final victory under the leadership of Ashina Chengqing, while the Tiele and Uighurs believed that they would never lose if they followed the Great Qin.

As a result of the plundering along the way, the Tiele and Uighurs did not lack grain and grass supplies, and on the Turkic side, the grain and grass they hoarded in the city was enough for them to spend the winter.

In the next few days, both sides did not move, and on the Turkic side, because of fear of the Great Qin, Tiefutu did not dare to come out, and the Tiele and Uighurs, after suffering the loss of Tiefutu, knew that the Turkic court in front of them was not so easy to deal with, and began to obey Chen Qingzhi's orders, and went to the mountains next to the camp to cut down trees and build siege equipment.

On the city wall, Ashina Chengqing and Ashina Yunlie looked at the Tiele and Uighur camps in the distance, they were all frowning, and sent scouts to return to the city, Tiele and Uighurs have a large number of teams into the mountains to cut down trees every day these days, they are obviously preparing large-scale siege equipment, if it was changed before, they naturally would not care, but now, with the existence of Daqin, it is very different, under the guidance of Daqin, Tiele and Uighurs are enough to make siege equipment that threatens them, and offset some of their advantages in defending the city.

"Are we just waiting for them to build siege engines to attack?" Ashina Chengqing punched the stone bricks of the city wall, and it rattled, he hated the feeling of powerlessness now, "As long as you give me 50,000 people, I can go out of the city and contain them." ”

"Horn-shaped defense, you're right, but we don't have any extra troops." Ashina Yunlie looked at his pale nephew and sighed on the side, "Prepare to defend, they may not be able to attack!" ”

Ten days later, the Tiele and Turks finally built ladders and chariots and began the siege. The Uighurs and Tielers pushed huge ladders and slowly pressed down on the towering city, and in front of them were infantry with wooden shields, rushing under the walls.

On the city wall, looking at the huge ladder, Ashina Chengqing and Ashina Yunlie's faces suddenly became ugly, such a huge ladder can not be destroyed by rockets, only with a catapult can the approach of the ladder be contained, but what they have here is only a very simple catapult, the range is extremely close, and the power is also small.

Looking at the three cloud ladders that were getting closer and closer, Ashina Yunlie finally gritted his teeth. All the catapults were mobilized, and a ladder was first projectiled. The Turks did not have a special scale on the catapults they built themselves, and the soldiers who used them did not know how to calculate, but simply relied on the number and threw stones at the approaching ladder without interruption. Although stones kept falling, the Tiele and Uighurs were numerous under the ladder, and only one of them died. Someone immediately made up for it and continued to push

Push forward.

Looking at the catapult on the city wall, Chen Qingzhi couldn't help but shake his head, he asked the Tiele people and the Uighurs to make the ladder is specially designed by the Mo family for the Great Qin army, its structure is very strong, unless the catapult can hit the mechanism, otherwise, they can't stop the ladder from leaning against the city wall, but this kind of ladder is not easy to make, and the Tiele people and the Uighurs have been busy for more than ten days. Only three were built.

"Such a ladder, what to counter it?" Look at the ladder that is still approaching forward. Li Ang looked at Chen Qingzhi beside him, he didn't know much about siege, he had only heard of things like cloud ladders before, and had never really seen them.

"A powerful catapult, or a ballista." Chen Qingzhi looked at the entire battlefield. Without looking back, he replied, "Actually, this level of ladder is only enough to deal with the Turks, and if it runs into Rome or Persia, it is completely useless." ”

"If the Turks had more catapults, they might have been blinded and smashed right above the ladder, or directly on the mechanism pushed below." Chen Qingzhi couldn't help but shake his head as he watched the chaotic catapult attacks of the Turks on the city wall in the distance, but before he finished speaking, the stones thrown by a catapult coincidentally smashed into the mechanism at the bottom of the ladder. Let it stop completely.

"It seems that the luck of the Turks is not bad!" Li Ang smiled at Chen Qingzhi. Then he looked at the other two ladders that were still advancing, and although the Turkic soldiers on the walls continued to shoot their bows and arrows at the Tiele and Uighurs who were pushing the ladders forward, they had to deal with them first as more and more of the Tiele and Uighurs rushed under the walls and erected simple long ladders to climb.

Without the threat of dense bows and arrows, the advance speed of the two cloud chariots suddenly increased a lot, and on the city wall, the catapult that had just stopped a cloud ladder was mobilized to the right side of the city wall by Ashina Yunlie, and began to throw it indiscriminately again, hoping to have the same good luck as the last time.

"The soldiers in front of them as cover were about 20% damaged before they stormed the city wall." Looking at the corpses lying on the periphery of the archers' range from the city wall, Chen Qingzhi made an estimate, these things are all things that Li Ang wants to know.

"What do you think would happen if we used our crossbows to uninterruptedly cover the towers?" Looking at the Turkic archers with a range of only five hundred paces, Li Ang suddenly asked Chen Qingzhi.

"Our crossbows have a range of seven hundred paces, and if we have enough arrows, we can completely suppress them." Chen Qingzhi replied, "In the siege warfare with the Romans and Persians, we have always used strong crossbows, ballistas, and catapults to suppress them, and at the same time attack the city. ”

"The arrows we carry with the army form a complete suppression, and they can only last for a while at most." Chen Qingzhi guessed Li Ang's intentions and shook his head.

"That's enough." Li Ang looked at Chen Qingzhi, "At that time, the Turks should have been almost exhausted by the Tiele and Uighurs, and our arrows were enough for us to suppress the remaining Turks on the city wall and let our people seize the city wall." ”

Chen Qingzhi looked at the ladder that had reached the city wall in the distance, looked at the Tiele soldiers and Uighur soldiers who jumped from the top of the ladder, and muttered to himself, "It's really a boring battle, if you fight like this, as long as you give me enough cannon fodder, I can defeat Chang'an." ”

"Are you calling me mean?" Li Ang looked at Chen Qingzhi, who was talking to himself, and he could hear the resentment in his tone.

"Despicable." Chen Qingzhi looked at Li Ang, who asked him, and shook his head, "Do you think I'm the kind of superficial person, on the battlefield, as long as I can win, any means can be used, driving the Tiele people and the Uighurs to be cannon fodder, which can also be regarded as a kind of military technique." ”

"If you change to an ordinary person, you want to get so much cannon fodder, but you can't get it!" Chen Qingzhi laughed, and then said to Li Ang, "I just think it's boring, every city has its weaknesses, and all I pursue is how to break through the city at the lowest cost." ”

Looking at Chen Qingzhi, who was serious, Li Ang found the difference between himself and Chen Qingzhi, that is, on the battlefield, he was much more utilitarian than Chen Qingzhi, basically in order to achieve his goal, he never cared about anyone's life or death, including his own.

On the city walls, the battle began to become fierce, and the desire of the Tiele and Uighurs for the Turkic royal court made them storm the city walls at any cost, and at this time, the generals who commanded the army were very clear-headed, and they knew that if they could not take the city walls in one go, then the people they died today would die in vain.

On the city wall, Tiele and the Uighur generals screamed loudly, agitating the soldiers around them to hold on to the city wall that they had occupied, if they retreated at this time, it would be equivalent to giving up all their achievements, everything would have to start over, even if they did not die here today, they would still die in the future, if so, they might as well fight to the death today, as long as their own people behind them followed, they would have won.

** drove the Tiele and the Uighurs to fight to the death, but the Turks they faced were also extremely fierce, in order to protect their relatives behind them, the Turkic soldiers on the city wall also fought to the death, although the Tiele and the Uighurs did not give an inch, but after all, the Turks on the city wall accounted for the majority, and they were always at a disadvantage.

Ashina Chengqing once again went out with the Iron Floating Tu, only this time they did not open the city gates, but rushed out through the small gate next to the main gate, and their appearance immediately reversed the situation of the battlefield, and they rushed along the city wall, cutting off the reinforcements of the Tiele and Uighurs on the city wall at once, and destroying two ladders at the same time.

"Pretty nice hand." Looking at the sudden appearance of the Tiefutu, Chen Qingzhi couldn't help but praise, the Turks chose the right time to fight, and they were not greedy for merit, after destroying the ladder and breaking the infantry formation under the city wall, they immediately returned to the city, and let their own archers on the city wall shoot the infantry under the city wall, which can be regarded as a wonderful use of cavalry.

"Collect the troops!" Leon looked at the heralds beside him, the Turks had driven the Tiele and Uighurs off the walls, the ladders had been destroyed, and so many infantry were crowded under the walls, just to serve the Turks as targets.

Hearing the sound of gold, the Tiele and Uighurs, who had long been thinking of retreating, immediately retreated to their camp like a tide, and they suffered heavy losses in today's siege battle, and in just one day, they were killed and wounded nearly 40,000 people.
