Chapter 647: Feint Attack (Part II)
"Kill!" The coalition army shouted, and the porters rushed up the siege ladder, and at the same time, dozens of people at the city gate joined forces to hug the thick trees and hit the city gate hard, causing the entire city to shake constantly, and it was about to be destroyed!
"Throw a thunderbolt in the direction of the city gates!" Chen Fei shouted, "As long as someone hits the city gate, throw a thunderbolt at me!" Blow up his shit! ”
Above the city wall corresponding to the city gate, a special soldier immediately threw a thunderbolt down.
"Boom!" After the explosion, the city gate finally fell silent, and when you looked down from above, the trees were blown off, surrounded by several charred corpses, and many soldiers were injured by the explosion, not immediately dead, and fell to the side holding their wounds and groaning in pain.
Because the soldiers inevitably gathered together during the attack on the city gate, the coalition army suffered a big loss, and almost all the soldiers who hit the city gate lost their combat effectiveness.
The city gate no longer trembled, and the Tang army commander behind the city gate breathed a sigh of relief, and then accelerated the speed to consolidate the city gate to avoid the city gate being breached.
Ju Lian, who was commanding the war from afar, saw the flames at the city gate, and immediately knew that the Tang army should have put that kind of terrifying weapon at the city gate, he hurriedly recruited soldiers to inquire about the situation ahead, and after getting the return message, he turned around and waved his hand, and another group of soldiers rushed towards the city gate with a giant tree.
Unlike the soldiers who had preceded them, this group was twice as large, and half of them were not holding large logs, but holding long shields in their hands.
On the city wall, the offensive and defensive battles are still going on, but everyone understands that the most critical attack must be at the city gate, but in any siege battle, the main purpose of the soldiers jumping on the city wall is to attract the attention of the defenders on the city wall, so that the soldiers below can attack the city gate without hindrance.
Because of the large number of soldiers in the coalition army, although the sprint was very scattered, it still put the Tang army in danger. The soldiers below continued to rain arrows at the city walls, and the soldiers who climbed the siege ladder held their shields in their hands to resist the boulders and quickly climbed up.
The soldiers on the city wall had to defend themselves against bows and arrows fired from below, and on the other hand, they had to destroy the siege ladders and shoot down the enemy troops who were climbing up, and many Tang troops were shot and fell to the ground, losing their combat effectiveness or even dying.
Cheng Chumo inherited the blood of the demon king of the mixed world, Cheng Biting Jin, and finally showed his potential as an excellent general at this time.
Standing on the city wall, unmoved by the roars of the enemy, he appeared very calm, constantly raising the command flag and giving orders everywhere.
"Someone! There are not enough stones on the walls! Quickly organize the strong men to go down and carry them up! ”
"There's a gap in the west, fill it for me! Don't let the enemy rush up! ”
"Come, go and collect the bows and arrows that the enemy has fired, hand them over to our crossbowmen, and let me continue to shoot arrows at these kings!"
"What about the special forces? Keep an eye on the gates, and if anyone attacks them, blow them up!" Don't let up in other places, as long as the local soldiers gather, throw thunderbolts at me! ”
"Where's the oil? Is the oil boiled? Bring it up to me when it's burned, and pour it to death! ”
Cheng Chumo kept giving orders, although the city wall was busy, but orderly, the soldiers fought bravely against the enemy according to the order, and so far, no enemy has occupied a place on the city wall.
The city is impregnable!
At the same time, the boiling oil was carried from the north and south walls.
From the very beginning of the war, Cheng Chumo arranged for people to burn fire oil on those two city walls. Now the oil was boiling, and it was being transported by a flatbed truck and slowly pulled to the western city wall.
Before the invention of thunderbolt, this was the biggest weapon to defend the city! Nearly 300 degrees of high temperature poured down, no matter if you are a martial god or something else, you will still be scalded by fire oil!
The soldier carrying the oil carefully stopped the cart, and then scooped up a large ladle of oil with a large basin made of iron, connected by a wooden handle, and carried it to a place where the siege ladder was erected, and poured it down.......
"Snort~" The hot oil was poured on the soldiers below, and the eyes immediately rose, exuding a creepy smell of meat.
The soldier who was drenched howled in pain, twisted his body and fell from the ladder, and the soldier below him was also drenched, howling incessantly, and tumbling down the ladder.
At the same time, the Tang army quickly set fire to the ladder, and the fire burned all over the ladder along the boiling oil, and some soldiers who were lucky enough not to be drenched by the oil could not escape the fire, their clothes were on fire, and they jumped off the ladder screaming and fell half to death.
One ladder turned into a fire ladder in an instant, killing and wounding several soldiers. The tragic death frightened the soldiers who had just rushed up. At the same time, the other ladders suffered the same situation, and the ladders that were almost erected on the city wall and the soldiers on them were engulfed in flames, and the casualties were terrible.
This scene was a bit bloody, and Chen Fei couldn't bear to watch it.
The ladders were destroyed, and before the new siege ladders could be moved, the coalition forces had to retreat a little and shoot with the Tang army with bows and arrows.
When the new siege ladder was delivered, the group of coalition soldiers with shields and rough logs also rushed to the city gate.
Holding on to the rough logs, they slammed the gates with all their might.
"Boom!"
The city gate shook for a while, and the soldiers behind the city gate were terrified, for fear that the city gate would be broken.
The special forces on standby at the city wall threw a thunderbolt down in time...... "Boom! ”
After the explosion, thick smoke billowed and the situation below was not visible for the time being, but the impact stopped, and I thought that this group of centaurs should have been almost wiped out like last time.
The soldiers behind the city gates and on the walls breathed a sigh of relief. But before they could relax.......
"Boom! Boom! The muffled thud was heard again
Everyone was shocked, shouldn't people have been blown up? Even the wood must have been blown up, right? Why are you still banging on the city gates? Haunted?
It's a pity that the smoke at the city gate has not yet cleared, and I can't see the situation below clearly for the time being!
"Throw another one!" Cheng Chumo anxiously ordered. There is no room for loss at the gates! If the city gate is broken, it will be really dangerous to fight the coalition army with their little strength!
"Boom!" There was another loud bang. The sound of the crash fell silent again, but before everyone could catch their breath, the sound of the pounding on the city gate sounded again!
"Haunted, this is?" Everyone was shocked. At this time, a strong wind blew and blew away the smoke in front of the city gate.
When everyone saw the situation below, their faces suddenly changed.
Shield! The enemy who hit the city gate actually had a team of men and horses to protect them, and they raised their shields to defend them!
The raised shield provided them with a strong defense, and although the thunderbolt could break through, it could only kill a few soldiers near the landing site, but it could not help the other soldiers who were protected by the shield.
And the soldiers killed by the bombing will be immediately replenished, and once again raise their shields, traveling a solid defense!
"Nima!" Chen Fei's face turned blue, if the thunderbolt couldn't help these people, how could he stop them from attacking the city gate?
"Pour me oil! Scald them! Cheng Chu roared silently.
Right! You can burn them! Chen Fei's eyes lit up, and at the same time he thought that if the oil was poured down, another thunderbolt fire would be added.......
"No!" Cheng Chumo grabbed Chen Fei and said solemnly: "Absolutely not!" Just pour oil on it, if you add a thunderbolt fire, you might blow up the city gates! ”
