Chapter 119: The Tragic Battle of the Ascending City

"The alliance leader has an order, go to the city to attack. Those who enter the city first will be rewarded with 500 sheep and 20 slave girls! The first echelon began to attack! The yellow-toothed bearded man, who was the front-line commander of the allied forces, ordered.

It has been three full days since the last time the Xixiang army suddenly went out of the city to counterattack the allied forces. During these three days, the coalition forces continued to attack fiercely. Although it has come at a terrible price, the effect is still there. Not only has the trench in front of Dongying Village been completely filled, but also the anti-antlers horses that have plagued the allied forces for a long time have also been destroyed a lot by the Hu people with axes. The siege battle is basically over, and now it's time to start the main drama of this war.

Under the orders of the Yellow Tooth Hu people, more than 100 Hu people in the first echelon rushed to the east camp with siege ladders. The level of science and technology of the Hu people is not high, and there are not many siege equipment that can be made. Not even the most ordinary and the most important siege equipment, a ladder truck, could be built. Only the bulkiest siege ladders can be used to get to the city.

The first wave of Hu people who hit the wall of Dongying will definitely be counterattacked by Xixiang in the strongest way. As a battle-hardened Shesu, as long as he is not stupid, he will not send the main force to attack. Obviously, the tragic Hu slave soldiers have once again become victims. They will be used as cannon fodder to take on the task of consuming the materials of the Xixiang army to defend the city.

Unlike the previous days, this time the Hu slave soldiers had weapons. It's just a sharpened stick, or a scrapped wood knife, etc. It can be regarded as very shabby, and even the auxiliary soldiers of the Xixiang Army are not as good. As for the armor, don't even think about it. Under the coercion and inducement of their respective officials, they carried improvised siege ladders and launched an attack on the eastern camp. Although his courage is commendable, it seems to Liu Ye, who was watching the battle on the walled city. They're just a bunch of poor fire-fighting moths.

However, unlike the previous days, these Hu slave soldiers who were engaged in the battle of the city had the cover of more than 100 long-range Hu archers. Of course! If these Hu slave soldiers do not obey the order and withdraw without permission. These Hu archers will also shoot arrows at them.

……

"All the shortbow teams don't care about this group of dogs under the wall, give priority to the archers who attack the dogs!" Liu Wu, who was standing on the wall of the wall and commanding the battle, ordered.

Hiding in a corner, he could see it clearly. After paying a little attention to the morale of the personnel, weapons and equipment, he understood that these Hu people under the walled wall were weak in combat power, and they were just cannon fodder to be sent to death, and they did not pose any threat to the Eastern Construction Department. On the contrary, the Hu archers who served as cover tasks, if they were allowed to shoot all the time, would pose a huge threat to the Saigo auxiliaries who lacked armor. Before dealing with this group of Hu cannon fodder under the walled city, it is obvious that we must first clean up the more than 100 Hu archers.

"A and D, two teams of short archers cross and shoot! The target is in front of the dog archer, fifty paces away. Heavy arrows in four rows! Wind! The temporary commander-in-chief of the short archers, after receiving the order, immediately ordered.

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! The sound rang out, and the well-trained Saigo archers shot the arrows in their hands within two breaths. More than 100 flat-headed heavy arrows with armor-piercing effects immediately flew out.

"Enemy arrows are coming, quickly put up a shield!" The commander who commanded the Hu archers seemed to be very experienced. As soon as you hear the sound of arrows breaking through the air, you know that there are a large number of arrows coming, and there are quite a few of them. Hurriedly ordered.

It's a pity that he looked up at the Hu slave soldiers who were responsible for helping them block arrows with shields. These Hu slaves were not well-trained soldiers. After hearing the order of the commander of the Hu archers, many people were stunned for a while.

In the moment when these shield-raising slave soldiers were stunned, the flat-headed heavy arrows of the Xixiang Army also flew over. The heavy arrows of the Xixiang Army can have an armor-piercing effect, and the simple protection on the Hu archers can't be blocked at all, let alone the Hu slave soldiers who don't even have armor. A large number of people were shot down at once.

"Idiot! Didn't Lao Tzu tell you before the war that you must listen to Lao Tzu's command? If you distract Lao Tzu again, Lao Tzu will definitely kill you when he goes back! Looking at his subordinates who fell to the ground, the Hu Ren archer commander was furious. As if angry, he pulled out his waist knife and slashed to death a slave soldier in front of him who was still a little stunned. Pointing at the rest of the Hu slave soldiers who were still holding shields, he scolded angrily.

"Now everyone listens to Lao Tzu and arranges according to the original formation. After the second wave of arrows of the enemy army was fired, he immediately gave Lao Tzu an immediate counterattack after listening to Lao Tzu's order, and whoever caused trouble to Lao Tzu again, Lao Tzu immediately cut him. Commander Hu continued to roar.

I don't know if it's out of fear of the Hu archer commander. This time, the slave soldiers who held shields to protect the Hu archers reformed a complete shield array before the second wave of arrows of the Xixiang army. Although it can't be said to be a perfect block for this wave of arrows. But the number of casualties was far lower than the previous wave.

Looking at the rain of arrows that had been blocked, the Hu Ren Archer Commander nodded with satisfaction and continued to order: "Very good, it's ...... turn next."

However, the Hu people did not finish the words of the commander of the archers before he could finish his words. It turned out that his neck had been pierced by a sharp arrow. Took the commander of the unwillingly Hu archers to hell.

"The Lord is right, the more nonsense people have, the faster they die!" Looking at the fallen Hu Ren archer commander, Huo Ying, who was hiding in a corner of the Dongying wall, said disdainfully. He was ordered by Liu Ye to snipe the valuable Hu people here. It was clear that the arrogant Hu man archer commander had become his prey.

The tragic battle of the city continued, and more than 1,000 people on both sides fought desperately in front of this small wall. Due to the increased hand-to-hand combat, the brutality was far greater than that of the previous siege warfare. However, after Huo Ying shot and killed the Hu archer commander, the Hu archers, who lacked unified command, were then defeated by the Saigo Short Bow Army. The Hu slave soldiers, who lacked the support of long-range troops, were fiercely attacked by the Xixiang army, and after a while, they could no longer support it, and they also dispersed. However, this time, instead of sending a team to force them to fight again, Shesu withdrew them and sent the second echelon into the attack.

……

"Alliance leader, is it really worth it for us to do this? Do you really want to pin your hopes on Yu and that villain? Looking at his clansmen dying one after another, Du Gu on the side couldn't bear to ask.

"It's worth it! If this Zhao people are not destroyed, our tribe will never be at peace. Now that we have a blood feud with the departed Zhao Dog and have become mortal enemies, can you expect them to let you go? She Su said firmly.

"But will Yu and that guy really send troops? Does he really have a way to attack the rear of this group of Zhao dogs? Dugu asked, a little uneasy. Obviously, he was very suspicious of Yu He's character.

"Don't worry! Yu and that guy are greedy though. But not stupid enough to let a tiger stay on the doorstep and not deal with it. Besides, I don't think he has the guts to dare to provoke our coalition forces! She Su said very confidently.

"I hope so!" Dugu said with some emotion. Now that the Shesu and the ministers have made a decision, it is difficult for him to refute it, but he has an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Cheer up. Yu He is just a miracle soldier. In the end, if you want to defeat Zhao Gou, you have to wait for me. Seeing that Dugu was a little worried, she soda said.

"Okay alliance leader!" Dugu pretended to lift the spirit. Although at this time, the ominous premonition in his heart was even more serious.
