"Any news?"

"Nope! General: We've sent out three heralds one after another, and we still haven't heard back! ”

At dawn the next day, Gu Suteng heard the captain's report in the military tent that the grain transport team that was supposed to arrive at noon yesterday had not yet arrived, and there was no news from the three heralds he had sent out.

"Damn, what the hell is this guy Qian Yuan doing!"

Gu Suteng was very angry when he heard the news, and he shouted: "Inform all the soldiers to assemble after breakfast, and prepare to attack Xima City in two hours!" ”

"General, aren't you waiting?!"

The captain was also a little surprised when he heard that Gu Suteng was preparing to gather a large army to attack West Horse City, this yesterday Gu Su Teng also said that he would fight a war of attrition with Lin Bei of West Horse City, but now he said that he would attack West Horse City.

"Damn, it is estimated that Qian Yuan thought that we were too inefficient, and deliberately did not transport food to us, and we haven't taken West Malaysia City in five days, and today is already the sixth day. I said that I would capture West Malaysia City within five days, damn, this guy is really brainless! ”

Gu Suteng is also helpless now, when he brought the army from Xianyang Pass to Xima City, he promised to capture Xima City within five days, but after arriving here, he happened to meet the grain collection team of West Malaysia City, so what he wanted in his heart was to carry out a grain consumption strategy with Lin Bei. As a result, Qian Yuan did not deliver the military rations on the fifth day, and it should be that the other party thought that he had begun to attack Xima City or had already captured Xima City.

"Go! Have breakfast! ”

"Yes!"

Gu Suteng grabbed the wine jar beside him and poured a few sips of water and wine, gnawed on the pieces of meat in his mouth, and after filling his stomach, he put on his armor and walked out of the camp.

Two hours later, Gu Suteng's army had been assembled, and all the soldiers were ready to go.

Gusuteng rode on the war horse, dangling back and forth in front of the army, checking the readiness of all the soldiers, and then raised his scimitar high and shouted at all the soldiers: "Warriors of the Northern Yuan! Today, I want you to take West Horse City for my Northern Yuan, and at night, I will drink wine and eat meat in the city tower of West Horse City! Do you understand?! ”

"Roar!"

"Attack!"

"Kill!"

The army charged, directly towards the slaughter of the city of West Malaysia.

On the tower of West Horse City, Lin Bei and they were also ready, and when they heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing coming from outside the city, he also shouted loudly to the soldiers guarding the city: "The whole army obeys the order!" Hold on to West Malaysia! Defend my Great Song Dynasty! ”

"Roar!"

The same earth-shattering shouts resounded in Xima City, the corridor of the city wall was already full of soldiers, the archers were ready, and the officers who gave the order were calculating the distance between the Northern Yuan army and Xima City, and it didn't take long for the Northern Yuan soldiers who rushed to the front to enter their firing range.

"Put!"

"Woohoo!"

Thousands of sharp arrows came out of the string and shot at the Northern Yuan infantry who were at the forefront, and at this time, Gu Suteng, who was commanding the battle on the battlefield, also issued an order: "Shield! ”

At the same time as the sharp arrow was fired, the front row of infantry in the Northern Yuan charge immediately raised their shields, forming a shield phalanx, and the infantry following behind them hid in the shield phalanx.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

After the arrow hit the shield, there was a crisp sound, accompanied by a few screams, after the first round of arrow rain ended, there were only a few corpses of the Northern Yuan infantry on the battlefield, and the shield phalanx of Gusuteng was very effective, and the loss was not large.

After the first round of arrow rain was over, only the horn of the charge was heard again in the Northern Yuan army, the shield phalanx changed instantly, and all the infantry charged again.

"Put!"

The second round of arrow rain fell after those infantry charged ten meters, and the same shield phalanx of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was also built again at this time.

Although the effect of the second round of arrow rain was better than that of the first round of arrow rain, it did not cause substantial damage to Gusuteng's army on the whole, and there were only more than a dozen corpses of Northern Yuan infantry on the battlefield.

"Put!"

This time it was not Lin Bei's people who shouted "put", but the archer commander of the Northern Yuan, the infantry's shield phalanx advanced ten meters, and also helped their archer phalanx advance ten meters, and now the soldiers on the wall of Xima City have entered their firing range.

Five thousand sharp arrows shot out in response to the sound and shot overwhelmingly towards the walls of Xima City, and Lin Bei also issued a military order at this time to defend.

"Door panel!"

"Knock knock!"

The soldiers on the city tower raised the door panel one after another, and all the sharp arrows shot by the Northern Yuan archers were nailed to the door panel, making a "dong dong" sound.

"Put!"

The second round of attacks of the Northern Yuan archers came soon, and the archers under Lin Bei and his men had not yet reacted, thinking that the shooting frequency of the Northern Yuan archers was about the same as their own, but as a result, they had just stood up from behind the door panel, and when they were about to shoot the third round, the overwhelming sharp arrows fell again.

"Ahh

There were screams from the walls of West Horse City, and nearly a hundred archers were shot by the other side, and they fell headlong on the city wall, and a few fell from the city wall and fell to the foot of the city wall.

"Put!"

The third round of attacks by the Northern Yuan archers arrived, sharp arrows rained down, and dozens of archers who did not have time to react were shot to death.

"General, their archery frequency is so fast, what should I do?!"

"All be prepared for hand-to-hand combat!"

Lin Bei was very helpless, what he didn't know was that the archers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were all trained in the grassland, their frequency of archery was high, and the accuracy was higher than that of the archers of the Great Song Dynasty, and more importantly, the number of archers on the other side was also more than that of Lin Bei. Of the 20,000 defenders in West Malaysia, there are only 2,000 archers, who are basically from Orion and are suitable for ambush warfare, and are not familiar with siege and defensive warfare.

Lin Bei gave up the tactics of archers attacking and switched to hand-to-hand combat and the tactics of holding the city walls, so all the soldiers hid behind the door board to avoid being shot by the Northern Yuan archers.

"Put!"

After the fourth round of arrow rain was released by the Northern Yuan archers, their infantry phalanx had already rushed to the foot of the city wall of Xima City, and the team of ten people had also entered the city wall, and the infantry in the front row had begun to set up the cloud ladder and prepare to fight in the city. At the same time, the city gate breaking force composed of more than 30 heavy armor soldiers also entered the battlefield, although their speed of action was not fast, but under the cover of the archers, they quickly approached the city gate, and the giant wood they carried on their shoulders was the city breaker used to break through the city gate.

"Pour oil! Ignition! ”

All the fuel in Xima City has been gathered on top of the city tower by Lin Bei, and now that the archers of the Northern Yuan have stopped attacking, and their infantry phalanx has also begun to set up ladders, this is the real beginning of the battle to defend the city.

"Ignition!"

The soldiers guarding the tower threw the door panel from the top, and they could hit a few of them, and then they each had a small oil canister in their hands, and faced the Beiyuan infantry who were climbing up the ladder, and smashed the opponent's head hard, and then the torch was also thrown at the person who was smashed.

"Ahh

"Ahh Yes! ”

The fire oil burned a little bit, and the soldiers who were hit by the oil cans soon became fire men, and the ladders were also contaminated with the oil oil, and many of the ladders had begun to burn.
