Early the next morning, the weather was unexpectedly clear, the sun was shining on the body, and the Tang Army sailors began to set off, heading along the Cao'e River towards Yuezhou City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Army, Yang Lian personally led 5,000 soldiers, escorted catapults, and rushed to the edge of the city.

Two hundred cavalry pressed the formation in the rear, and two thousand soldiers were also arranged on both flanks to take strict precautions, and the rest of the soldiers were busy, quickly setting up the catapults.

The actions of the Tang army Wu Yuejun had already gotten the news, Jin Xin, the assassin of Yuezhou, and Zhao Chengtai, the commander of the water division, quickly rushed to the city, seeing the actions of the Tang army, Jin Xin pursed his lips, he knew that the Tang army was going to use catapults, and at this time catapults were sharp weapons for attacking the city, but the Yuezhou city was tall and big, and there was a wide moat, so Jin Xin was very confident.

Zhao Chengtai squinted his eyes and looked outside the city, since the Tang army occupied the Yuezhou Water Village, it had not attacked, and more time was spent fighting for control of the waterway. Zhao Chengtai didn't know much about Yang Lian, but he knew that this person had always planned and then acted when he was fighting, so there must be a trick in this attack.

"Golden Thorn History, the Tang Army's sudden attack, there must be some tricks, and you must be on guard." Zhao Chengtai said.

Jin Xin doesn't know much about Yang Lian, but judging from Yang Lian's deeds, this person has always been surprising and good at using tricks, so Jin Xin also agreed, and said: "The Tang army is here, there must be tricks, Zhao commands, our army will stick to the city, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Chengtai agreed with this opinion, he was originally afraid that he would be deceived in the history of the Golden Thorn. Although the Tang army has such sharp weapons as catapults, if they want to smash the city wall, it will not be able to succeed in a while, so let's see what the Tang army wants to do, and then it is not too late to decide.

While the two were talking, the Tang army continued to move, the catapults were lined up, the soldiers were busy, putting the cobblestones in the groove, Zhang Wenji ran up and said, "Yang Jiedu, it's all ready." ”

"Okay, projectile, aim at the city wall of Yuezhou, throw hard, the stone we have is." Yang Lian ordered.

"Whoa!" Zhang Wenji agreed and hurried back.

"Ready! Shoot! Zhang Wenji saw that everyone was ready, and gave an order.

Almost at the same time, the soldiers of the Don Army made a round of projectiles, and the cobblestones smashed forward, some of them were not accurate, and they fell into the moat, causing a splash. More fell on the city wall and smashed on the women's wall, and the stone chips flew everywhere. When the cobblestone flew in, Jin Xin and Zhao Chengtai and others had already hid under the female wall, when the cobblestone came, they hid under the female wall, and they could still feel the power of the cobblestone, the female wall was trembling, the stone chips flew out, like a blade, if it was hit on the face, it was a deep wound, and some soldiers were unlucky, and they happened to be hit in the head, so they leaned and fell to the ground.

However, these threats are not too big, the cobblestone fell on the city wall, constantly rebounding, some soldiers who couldn't dodge were crushed into meat sauce, the cobblestone will continue to roll, the damage caused is huge, Jin Xin was almost crushed by the cobblestone, so frightened that he hurriedly hid in the city tower.

"Throw, keep throwing!" Zhang Wenji shouted loudly.

The Tang soldiers kept busy, the cobblestone was constantly transported to the catapult, and then it was thrown out and landed on the city, some of the cobblestones hit the city tower, and the beams of the house made a loud "click", and Jin Xin's face changed.

"Thorn History, go!" A pro-soldier shouted and pushed Jin Xin, Jin Xin staggered, walked a few steps before standing firm, at this time, I heard a scream behind him, the beam of the house fell violently, and the pro-soldier was hit in both legs, thinking that it was broken.

"Thorn Shi go quickly, it's not safe here!" The soldier struggled and said, his legs were broken, his voice changed in pain, and his face was sweating profusely.

Jin Xin pursed his lips, turned his head, and was about to run down the city wall, at this time, a round stone fell suddenly, and smashed a Wu Yue soldier into meat sauce seven or eight steps away from him, and a piece of minced meat flew to Jin Xin's mouth, he habitually licked it, and suddenly remembered that this was human flesh, and suddenly his stomach turned over and over, and he couldn't help but vomit.

"Golden Thorn History, go, go!" Zhao Chengtai shouted, ran up two steps, pulled up Jin Xin and left. The two of them ran out seven or eight steps one after the other, and suddenly Zhao Chengtai felt that something was wrong, he looked up and saw that a round stone flew over.

"Get down!" Zhao Chengtai shouted, quickly turned around and hid behind the female wall, and as soon as the person dodged, the round stone smashed over, and the sound of the wind resounded in his eardrums, giving him a little headache. Jin Xin was pulled by Zhao Chengtai, his head hit the female wall, very painful, he couldn't help covering his head with his hands, his fingertips were warm, Jin Xin took a closer look, his head was broken, and blood gushed out.

Jin Xin didn't have time to speak, beside him, a soldier was hit by a cobblestone, suddenly, the person was cut into two pieces, his two legs were still kicking on the ground, the front half was on the ground, and his two hands were struggling to crawl forward on the ground, suddenly, he seemed to realize something, looked back, and found that his lower body was gone, and couldn't help screaming and crying.

Even though Zhao Chengtai has experienced countless killings and seen countless robes being killed, the scene in front of him still shocked Zhao Chengtai, looking around, the powerful catapults of the Tang army played a huge role, even the female wall could not be stopped, the huge cobblestone flew in, and everything that was hit was basically a dead end, and the cobblestone had strong mobility, and after falling, it was still rolling around on the city wall, which was a great threat.

Taking advantage of the interval of the Tang army's projectile, Zhao Chengtai pulled up Jin Xin again and fled, and finally escaped, looking back, the blood was flowing on the city wall, and there were constantly cobblestones rolling down the steps, and Wu Yuebing, who could not dodge, was caught up by cobblestones, even if they were not crushed to death, they were quite embarrassed, and many people were crushed off their hands and feet, crying on the ground.

"Straight sissy thief!" Jin Xin, who was born as a literati, couldn't help but burst into a foul language.

Zhao Chengtai on the side understood very well that Tang Jun's catapult was too powerful, but more importantly, they didn't know where to get so many round stones.

"The history of the golden thorn, the city wall can't go up, you can only wait and see what happens." Zhao Chengtai said.

Jin Xin nodded helplessly, it seemed that this was the only way to go. Wu Yue's army retreated to the side, and the Tang army was still throwing stones, some of which were blocked, some of which rolled down the city wall, ran wildly on the road made of bluestone slabs, and then rolled into the river, causing a splash.

Wu Yue's army dodged from a distance, and the threat of cobblestone was greatly reduced, but they could not get close to the city wall, so they could only let the Tang army attack.

The attack of the Tang army lasted for a full hour, and the catapults were damaged to varying degrees due to the continuous projectiles, and the soldiers quickly replaced this part of the catapults, and pushed up another batch of catapults and continued to bombard.

The boulders of the Tang army seemed to be running out, and by ten o'clock in the afternoon, although this section of the city wall had not been blown down, it had been damaged to varying degrees, and the city tower had been flattened and bare.

Yang Lian looked at the city wall and gave another order, and the Tang soldiers pushed the catapult forward again, expanding the range of the attack, which forced the Wu Yue army to retreat again. Under the continuous attack and advancement, the Tang army was only more than twenty steps away from the city wall, and at this time a lot of cobblestones and corpses had been piled up on the city wall.

Yang Lian waved his hand and said, "Commander Zhang, stop the bombardment." ”

Zhang Wenji gave the order, and the Tang soldiers gradually stopped, and the catapult heat at this time was terrible, and when he reached out and touched it, it was very hot. Yang Lian looked at the head of the city, and couldn't help but look to the northeast, over there, what happened to Lin Renzhao?

Just when Yang Lian was bombarding the city of Yuezhou, Lin Renzhao led a small boat along the Cao'e River into the large and small rivers of Yuezhou, and after Wu Yuejun took a defensive position, he buried countless sharp wooden stakes in the river, which greatly affected the actions of the Tang army.

Lin Renzhao found that the role of the raft was greater, and he immediately ordered the three armies to go ashore, and some of the soldiers dragged the raft forward, and the other part spread out and hurried to the vicinity of Yuezhou City. Lin Renzhao did not rush to attack, he carefully observed the situation, and found that near the Water Gate, there were not many soldiers and horses of the Wu and Yue army, and Lin Renzhao sent troops to hide in the reeds, waiting for the arrival of the raft.

When the news of Yang Lian's bombardment of the city wall came, Lin Renzhao couldn't help but nodded, he could hear the sound of the boulder bombardment on the city wall, at this time, I'm afraid that Wu Yuejun's attention has been attracted by Yang Lian, right? After waiting for a long time, the soldiers finally dragged the raft over, this area is relatively close to Yuezhou City, and there are fewer sharp wooden stakes, Lin Renzhao did not spend too much effort to remove the sharp wooden stakes.

In front of Lin Renzhao is how to break through the water gate, he sent a few tall horses, excellent water soldiers dived into the water, after spending some strength, two soldiers approached the water gate, Wu Yuejun's water gate is very well guarded, through the gap, you can see Wu Yuejun soldiers are patrolling, a very vigilant look. The two soldiers watched carefully for a while, and finally chose to leave.

After telling Lin Renzhao about the military situation, Lin Renzhao nodded, he also knew that Yuezhou was the eastern capital of Wu Yueguo, and the defense would naturally be very strict, and it was not easy to take the water gate, he was waiting.

Since the time had not come, Lin Renzhao first ordered the three armies to have a meal, recover their strength, and after lunch, the sun was already setting in the west.

In Yuezhou City, Jin Xin breathed a sigh of relief, the Tang army finally stopped attacking, but the city was full of cobblestones, and the city tower was full of corpses and blocked cobblestones, and he couldn't go to the city at all, but he wasn't very worried, Wu Yuejun couldn't get to the city, and the Tang army naturally couldn't get a foothold, he had time to consume.

Jin Xin discussed with Zhao Chengtai for a while, and felt that as long as the city gate was guarded, the Tang army would not be able to enter the city, so he sent people to push the cobblestone and block the city gate. However, there are also disadvantages to this, at least you can't observe the movements of the Tang Army well, at this time, what is the Tang Army doing?

Under Yang Lian's arrangement, the Tang army outside the city stopped projectiles, and the tall chariots were pushed out, the height of these chariots was comparable to the city wall, and the situation in the city could be observed.
