It can be said that the more than 500 dead soldiers sent by Liu Xun delayed the time for Zhu Wei's side to fill the moat, but they did not destroy any of the cave houses on Zhu Wei's side.

Therefore, Pang Yan quickly asked the auxiliary soldiers to drive the cave house car back to fill the moat, but this time Pang Yan also sent a thousand sword and shield men to form a tortoiseshell shield array to protect the side, so as not to be attacked and destroyed by the dead soldiers sent in Anhui County.

And just like that, after a period of chaos, everything went back to the way it was.

The more than a dozen cave house cars still safely protected the auxiliary soldiers in the inner middle school, and filled the moat of Anhui County in an orderly manner.

That Liu Xun saw all this happening on the city gate tower, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Liu Ye, who had returned to the Sword Pavilion at the head of the city, and wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

Although these dead soldiers have hidden the detailed work of Zhu Wei's school office, it is indeed Liu Ye's deliberate hands, if these people do not suddenly break out, it is estimated that these more than 500 dead soldiers can still play a little role, and maybe they can burn a few cave houses.

But in general, it is impossible for these dead soldiers to destroy all the cave house cars, because Zhu Wei's rescue action is also very fast.

And Liu Xun didn't suspect that Liu Ye had ulterior motives, he just thought that Liu Ye's time to prepare the dead soldiers was too short, and the dead soldiers who were barely composed of felons still couldn't completely let them die with their hearts, so this situation would occur.

Liu Xun felt that Liu Ye had tried his best, but things were like this, people's hearts were unpredictable, and there was nothing to be done.

At this time, it was too late to find the dead to fight again, so Liu Xun could only accept such an ending, and it seemed that the next thing was to resist Zhu Wei's army head-on.

In this way, after nearly an hour, the cave house car on the side of Zhu Wei's army filled a moat nearly 100 steps long in front of the city wall of Anhui County, which basically paved the way for the follow-up army to attack the city.

At this time, the sky has gradually changed from nine or ten o'clock in the morning to two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

At the core of Zhu Wei's army in the rear, Zhu Wei stood on a high platform paved with several cars, and he could see the situation in front of him from afar.

So Zhu Wei glanced at Jia Xu and Sun Shangxiang who were standing beside him, and after getting the corresponding signals from them, he ordered the herald to beat the drums, so that the Xiong Lu battalion of Pang Yan in front of him was ready to attack the city.

"Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ......"

The three drummers beat the drum loudly to the sky, and the flag-bearers around also waved the command flag in their hands one after another, and passed the order to attack the city to the front.

"Fight! War! War! Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

More than 10,000 soldiers in Zhu Wei's main army were also shouting loudly in their mouths at the same time, and this earth-shattering shout rushed forward like a wave.

Soon, Sun Quan, Huang Gai, and Zhou Yu from Zhu Wei's army array with 5,000 sword and shield men and 5,000 crossbowmen, plus the siege equipment promoted by the follow-up 3,000 auxiliary soldiers, such as five siege arrow towers, five gravel throwing vehicles, and three thunderbolt stone throwing vehicles, also moved to the front battlefield.

Although in today's daytime battle, Zhu Wei is mainly preparing for a feint, but there will never be anything empty in the posture, except for the ladder that climbs the city wall, almost all other siege equipment is used.

After a short time, the follow-up forces and the more than 8,000 troops of the Xionglu battalion led by Pang Yan in front converged, so under the protection of the sword and shield hands, the five siege arrow towers, together with the three siege arrow towers on Pang Yan's side before, slowly pushed towards the front of Anhui County and entered the range of archers on the city wall.

At the same time, the archers and crossbow archers who were standing on the turret also began to shoot feather arrows and crossbow arrows at the city walls.

"Bang bang bang...... Whoosh ......"

The archers on both sides of the attack and defense began their battles, and the archers on the city wall and the arrow tower began to shoot each other, and the height of the city wall and the arrow tower was about the same, or the height of the arrow tower was even higher than that of the city wall, so it seemed that the archers and crossbow archers on the siege arrow tower on Zhu Wei's side posed a certain threat to the defenders on the city wall.

The archers on the wall of Anhui County can't pose much threat to the archers and crossbow archers hiding behind the arrow holes on the siege towers, so the bows and arrows of the defenders on the city wall often only fall on the planks that block the arrows, and occasionally try their luck to shoot into the small arrow holes.

However, this may not be able to kill or injure the archers and crossbow archers on the high platform of the siege arrow tower, so the counterattack of the archers on the city wall is almost in vain.

The archers and crossbow archers of Zhu Weifang who shot feather arrows and crossbow arrows through the arrow holes of these arrow tower platforms only need to boldly shoot arrows at the city wall, and the Liu Xun defenders who are dense on the city wall can only rely on the shields of some sword and shield men to protect them, but there are no more ways to dodge arrows.

So often, in a few arrows, they will definitely hit the defenders, and although they may not necessarily kill people, they can also be wounded.

Of course, the only thing is that the number of archers and crossbow archers on the siege arrow tower is not too much, and now the eight siege arrow towers can only accommodate about a thousand archers and crossbow archers standing on the platform above.

Therefore, every time they shoot an arrow, at most, they shoot dozens or hundreds of defenders who are killed or wounded, which is not a big loss compared to the number of three or four thousand defenders on the city wall.

Therefore, they mainly played a leading role, so that the Liu Xun defenders on the city wall could not devote themselves to defending the city, but also had to devote some attention to guarding against feather arrows and crossbow arrows shot from the arrow tower.

In addition, these archers and crossbow archers can also destroy some of the means prepared on the city wall, such as some fire oil, wood, etc., which will also be directly ignited by the rockets they release.

Of course, the siege equipment on Zhu Wei's side also had other gravel throwing vehicles and thunderbolt throwing vehicles.

Soon these stone-throwing trucks were also erected in front of the city wall, and the so-called gravel stone-throwing trucks were originally built by Zhu Wei on this side, although the power was much smaller than the thunderbolt stone-throwing trucks, it was better than a durability.

Therefore, these gravel throwers can throw large and small gravel and pose a certain threat to the defenders on the city wall.

Although the lethality of these gravel is not very large, it is enough to smash the scalp of the defenders to bleed, which can also make up for the lack of archers on the siege arrow tower on Zhu Wei's side.

With the throwing of the stone throwing truck, the canopy of gravel suddenly seemed to rain on the city wall, so that the defenders on the city wall could only protect their heads with double-arc hand shields, and they hardly had any intention of doing anything else.

However, the siege arrow tower and the gravel throwing cart can only be regarded as harassment, and the real powerful thunderbolt throwing cart has also begun to exert a terrifying threat to the defenders on the city wall......
