Chapter 488: Breaking the City
When the guard chief was stunned again, the general on the side quickly pulled the guard chief to the female wall, but a boulder happened to hit the female wall behind the guard chief, the city wall trembled, and several pieces of debris burst onto the guard chief's neck, and he couldn't help screaming.
The attack of the thunderbolt car, but also to a great extent so that the defenders did not dare to show their heads, they did not dare to gamble with their lives, Wenxi's defenders have 2,000 people, in the face of the Bingzhou army has an advantage, does not mean that these people are willing to die, in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, the occupation of Hanoi by the Bingzhou army is not much different from the current one, but the flag at the time of the expedition has changed.
Even if it is a state army, there are ordinary soldiers, and they don't have to worry about starvation.
At this moment, Wei Yan handed over the command of the army to Chen Lan, and went into battle in person with a knife, he wanted to break Wen Xi with his own hands and sweep away the depression that had been in place for many days.
Chen Lan wanted to persuade him, but after seeing Wei Yan's explanation, he left with his sword and hurriedly, so he had to keep dispatching the army to start attacking Wenxi, and the Thunderbolt riders were staring closely at the movement in the city, as long as the defenders dared to show their faces, they were greeted by boulders falling from the sky, as Thunderbolt drivers, they felt very honored, and at the same time, there was little danger to their lives on the battlefield, such as siege battles, they were outside the enemy's attack range, and only the enemy screamed under their hands.
A ladder hung firmly on the city wall, the ladder hanging on the city wall is not small, but also alarmed a lot of defenders, the guard commander is constantly ordering the soldiers to come forward, but with the Keiguan defenders of the day, they are a little hesitant, no one is sure that the boulders under the city will fly up as soon as they go out, although the number of those boulders is small, but if they are hit there is no reason to live, even if the probability is small, the defenders are willing to take risks.
The suspicious defenders had just emerged, and they were greeted by another boulder attack.
The defenders who hurriedly hid behind the female wall, their faces were pale with fright, and the scene of the tragic death of the robe in front of them deeply stimulated them, if the robe was shot by a bow and arrow, they didn't feel anything, but this kind of being stoned to death by a boulder was too bloody, and the scene was too exciting.
The face of the guard chief is also not very good-looking, his face was cut open by the splashing stones, coincidentally there are already six boulders smashed here in front of the guard chief, it can be said that compared with other defenders, every time the guard shows up, it is the biggest risk, the guards next to him, four people have been stoned to death, the tragic situation of the four people, let the remaining several guards guard the guard tightly behind him, as long as the guard chief does not show up, they do not have to go out.
This round of boulder attacks seemed to make the defenders forget the ladder that had just hung on the city wall, and at this time, even if some of the defenders remembered it, they probably wouldn't show their faces, and they would rather choose the latter by being stoned to death and being stabbed to death by the enemy's knives and guns.
With a wave of the long knife in Wei Yan's hand, he took the lead in ascending the cloud ladder.
The main general in the army took the lead, which deeply stimulated the soldiers of the Bingzhou army, the main general is not afraid of death, how can the soldiers below spare their lives, although the soldiers of the Bingzhou army are elite, they are also eager to have a brave general to lead, such as Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Dian Wei and others, Wei Yan was not famous in the army after all, and the short time to join the Bingzhou army is too short, it is difficult to be convincing, although the soldiers in the army are hindered by the order to obey Wei Yan's dispatch, but in their hearts there are a few people who really obey Wei Yan's orders.
However, Wei Yan used his actions today to impress many soldiers, siege warfare is the most dangerous battle, the slightest carelessness is the end of death, the defenders will not show mercy because you are a general.
Carrying a knife in one hand, Wei Yan walked towards the city wall with vigorous movements, he wanted to climb the city wall before the defenders could react, and make a way to climb the ladder for the army behind, among the siege of the city, the soldier who first climbed the city wall was the most meritorious, and it was also the most prone to death, because he was facing the swords and guns of many defenders.
jumped and just landed on the city wall, Wei Yan stabbed with his backhand, and the two defenders hiding behind the female wall fell in a pool of blood.
"The enemy has taken the city." One of the generals shouted, and then led his soldiers to kill.
The rest of the defenders also woke up from the shock of the thunderbolt, and the state army climbed the city wall, which meant that no boulders would come if they showed up.
At this time, more and more soldiers of the Bingzhou Army boarded the city wall, and kept killing on the city wall, and the city suddenly seemed a little chaotic, and the defenders who had just woken up from the power of the thunderbolt once again faced the fierce swords and guns of the Bingzhou army, and the little courage that had just been raised dissipated a lot.
The head of the guard, whose face was covered with blood, roared: "You guys work hard to step forward, drive the state army off the city wall, roll the rocks, and throw them all down the city wall!" ”
The Captain's shouting may have had a certain effect, and it also allowed the defenders who had just woken up to find something to do, and there were a lot of wooden rolling stones next to them, which was also the Captain's masterpiece during this period of time, but he didn't expect it to come in handy after the state army attacked the city wall.
The boulders were thrown from the city with no regularity, and the defenders went mad and frantically threw the boulders, even though there were no troops below them.
The killing in the city continued, Wei Yan, who had superb sword skills, was like a demon in the eyes of the defenders, under Wei Yan's knife, there was never more than one enemy, but everyone who was close to Wei Yan was killed, even if some defenders attacked with bows and arrows, it did not have much effect, within the safe range of Wei Yan's creation, more and more soldiers of the state army climbed the city wall along the ladder, and they took Wei Yan as the center, and gradually expanded the results.
The guard commander watched the situation here, and hurriedly led two hundred soldiers to kill, originally the defenders had five hundred people on standby, but the state army climbed the city wall, disrupting the rhythm of the guard commander, there were too many urgent places, and soon there were only two hundred people left in his hands.
"Kill all these people!" The Wei Chang pointed in the direction of Wei Yan and the others and shouted.
At this time, Wei Yan already had more than 100 soldiers around him, which was already a force to be reckoned with on the city wall, the key was that Wei Yan, who led the troops, was too powerful in the eyes of the defenders, and no one was willing to resist Wei Yan, and in the face of Wei Yan's continuous advance, they could only retreat.
The city became more and more chaotic, and the number of soldiers of the Bingzhou army on the city wall reached 500, and at this time, the Bingzhou army was not sticking to the cloud ladder, but killing the defenders around them, trying to drive the defenders off the city wall.
