Early the next morning, King Posa led his army to continue the siege.

The defenders of Peshawar, the capital of the Kushan Empire, were basically numb in the face of the siege of the rebels of the King of Posa.

For more than a month, King Posa has been attacking the city, and it is basically a bluff.

However, at this time, there was not much food in the imperial city, and it could last less than a month.

In another month, the imperial city will be broken.

Therefore, although King Posa only bluffed every day, the defenders of the imperial city were in a heavy mood day by day.

If there are no more reinforcements, they will surely die once they run out of food.

Originally, there were a lot of grain and grass reserves in the imperial city of Peshawar, enough for them to eat for a year.

But before the rebellion, King Posa had secretly colluded with the nobles in the imperial city, as well as the officials in charge of the granary, and secretly transferred all the grain.

By the time the royal family of the Kushan Empire found out about the problem, the rebels of King Bosa had already been overwhelmed, and they were powerless to return to the sky.

……

This time, the defenders in Peshawar still thought that the rebels were bluffing.

Therefore, many soldiers did not even pick it up, and lazily leaned against the city wall and pretended to sleep.

Now that there is not much food, they move a little less, reduce the loss of exercise, and eat a little less when they eat.

Their food will last an extra day.

However, it soon became clear that this time, it seemed different.

King Posa actually gathered all the 100,000 rebels, used all the siege equipment, and then launched an attack on the city.

The ladders used by the rebels were not the same as the ones they usually saw.

The ladder used by the rebels can be assembled on the spot, and after assembly, there are wheels underneath, and the soldiers below hold their shields high and quickly push the ladder under the city wall.

Bows and arrows did not work very well against these shield soldiers, so the defenders on the city walls began to use the stones stored on the city walls.

They smashed the stones from the city wall one by one, and the weight of the stones themselves, coupled with the acceleration brought by the height of the city wall, as long as they hit their bodies, no matter how thick the shield was, they could not resist it.

The rebels of King Bosa below were immediately killed and wounded.

The momentum of the siege could not help but slow down, and many soldiers found that the situation was not good and began to retreat.

At this time, the king of Po Sa, armed with a long sword, personally cut off the heads of two retreating soldiers, and shouted: "Everyone obeys the order, and those who dare to take a step back will be killed!" ”

The king organized an army of overseers, and anyone who retreated was killed on the spot.

Under the supervision of the overseers, no soldier dared to retreat.

Under the city walls, the corpses of the dead and wounded rebels covered the ground, blood flowed everywhere, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

However, the rebel offensive also began to work.

Ladders began to reach the city walls.

The rebel's ladder is different from the normal ladder, and the rebel's ladder has a bracket on it.

Once the ladder is leaning against the city wall, the machine bracket is opened, and the city wall is stuck, and then the machine bracket is automatically locked, and it cannot be broken.

You can't even cut with a knife, unless you use a hammer to smash it, maybe you can deform it.

But with ladders coming up, where is the time given to you to deal with them?

I'm afraid that the machine of the ladder here has not been smashed open, and the rebels over there have already climbed up from the ladder.

What especially makes the defenders on the city wall helpless is that people's ladders can be climbed from the middle.

There is a protective net on one side, and it is difficult to hit the soldier in the middle, whether with a bow or arrows or a stone.

This ladder is really amazing!

In the past, it was difficult to defend the city, but it was difficult to work at this time.

The rebels continued to climb up the middle of the ladder, and soon reached the top of the ladder.

At this time, the soldiers defending the city were also red-eyed.

As long as they are climbed by the rebels, they will all die.

Therefore, as soon as the first rebel appeared, he was slashed by the officers and soldiers defending the city, and before he could let out a terrible scream, he fell down the ladder and was shattered.

The rebels next to him, almost oblivious to the corpse of this former comrade-in-arms and now the dead body, quickly passed past him and quickly climbed up the ladder.

However, with the first, there is the second, and the third.

However, at this time, it was still the defenders who had the upper hand, and they were not afraid of death, and they slashed frantically, but all the rebels who climbed to the top of the ladder were killed by them.

However, the number of rebels is more than double theirs!

Finally, one of the rebels stood firm, raised the steel knife in his hand, and slashed at the officers and soldiers defending the city.

The officers and soldiers defending the city hurriedly raised their weapons to block.

Boom!

With a crisp sound, the weapons in the hands of the soldiers defending the city were cut in half.

The soldiers defending the city couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, and then, before he could react, the rebels had already raised their long knives and beheaded him.

Well, the weapons used by the 100,000 rebels here are the weapons that Dahua sold to them and eliminated.

Although it was eliminated by Dahua, it was still many times sharper than the weapons used by the Guishan soldiers.

As this one rebel gained a foothold, the second rebel climbed up at once, then the third, then the fourth......

The weapons in the hands of the rebels are too sharp, as long as the defenders dare to fight hard, they will definitely be cut off.

And as long as the weapon is cut off, on the battlefield, it means death.

Therefore, in the future, the soldiers defending the city no longer dared to confront the rebel weapons.

But the defensive space on the city wall is only so large, and the space for dodging is very limited.

Blindly dodging is playing a game with death.

Hide from it, this time it will pass, if you can't hide from it, this life will pass.

The number of rebels who climbed the ladder began to gradually increase.

The defenders on the city walls also began to frantically reinforce them.

Both sides have already killed red eyes.

Although the rebels relied on the advantage of weapons and occupied an absolute advantage.

But the soldiers defending the city just took their lives and filled them up, not taking half a step back.

The battle situation fell into a stalemate for a while.

Looking at the siege battle like a meat grinder, King Posa also felt a burst of pain.

In this battle, his 100,000 elite soldiers are estimated to be lost by more than half.

Damn it!

The people in the city should be damned!

The king is furious!

I secretly swore in my heart that once I attacked the city, I would slaughter it to vent my anger!

Eventually, the rebels gained the upper hand.

Rebels began to fight their way up the walls and gain a foothold, and more and more rebels began to fight on the walls.

By this time, the defending soldiers had fallen into despair.

Peshawar, their capital, is no longer defended!

Eventually, the defenders began to panic, and they began to retreat from the walls.

This retreat soon turned into a rout.

The rebels captured the upper city, fought it in groups, and opened the gates from the inside.
