Chapter 207: The Siege (5)

Outside the dark Qiuzi City, the night wind whined and blew the torches on the city's head, and the Yehu stood at the city's head and stared into the distance, the surrounding news and news had been stretched to the huge wall in the north, and countless people, soldiers, and crazy people were still not surging on the head of the city.

And in the open space outside the city wall, the Tang army dressed in black armor and black skirts was almost mixed with the night, even if they stood on the head of the city, they could only see some large and small phalanxes quietly guarding in the distance.

Bundles of arrows were stacked on the ground on the city, and the archers were half-crouching in preparation for archery.

The idle gang in the back kept carrying rolling stones and trees from the bottom of the city, and in a short time a pile of hills had been formed, and the surrounding flames were mixed with the animal fat that had begun to burn, and the fragrance spread to the entire city.

The next moment, Li Chengqian got off the high platform, and all the Tang soldiers turned around in unison and moved backwards in unison a distance of one stone's stone.

Ye Hu frowned and looked at the strange behavior of the Tang people, and was speechless for a while, and the people at the head of the city stretched out their heads and poked out, discussing with each other why the Tang army was retreating.

"The Tang people have retreated! The Tang people are back! ”

The castle began to cheer gradually, and the other party began to retreat a little unbelieving, and turned to look at the east wall closest to him.

It was quiet, and the city was still as busy as usual, but when I heard the shouting here, I stood up strangely and looked this way.

"What's going on~Li Shuang~What is your idea?"

Ye Hu frowned and looked at the retreating Tang army in the distance, and always felt a little uneasy.

"Go~ transfer Batu over, and bring my eight-bull crossbow by the way."

Batu is the most powerful archer in the Western Turks, and there is an arrow and a half away from the high platform, but this distance is only the distance of ordinary arrows, the Eight Bull Crossbow, under the control of Batu, in the chaos, then Li Shuang will definitely be nailed to death.

I'm really looking forward to it~

The Tang army in the distance seemed to stagnate, and then turned around in a hurry, the armor struck each other, and the sound of neat footsteps could be heard clearly even from a distance.

Such a well-trained army is almost invincible in the Western Regions.

It's just that

At the moment when the Tang Dynasty army stagnated, the entire earth seemed to tremble, and Ye Hu looked at the soles of his feet suspiciously.

But this doubt only lasted for a moment, and in the next moment, as if a monster had suddenly emerged from the ground, a huge roar mixed with the tremor of the entire city wall gradually became clear.

Ye Hu's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched his gaze rise and flip, and then watched the huge firelight engulf him, and when the pain was all over his body, suddenly, the world began to darken.

And everyone outside the city looked at the giant wall in the distance in amazement, and suddenly rose up with the posture of a giant dragon turning over and the birth of a giant beast, and then the fire rose into the sky with fierce smoke, and the city wall cracked and took off, and the broken masonry and earth rose with the firelight, and then sputtered out at a very fast speed.

"Boom!"

As if it was an enraged beast, a huge roar mixed with a strong wind continued to disperse around, seeing, the snow on the ground was swept up by the wind, and with the sound wave rushing straight towards the Tang military array, Erhan took a step, knelt on one knee, turned around and protected Li Chengqian's relatively small body, and the shock wave mixed with small stones crackled on the iron armor on Erhan's back, blowing the flag and clothes, as if the end was coming.

In the distance, under the light of gunpowder fire, a mushroom cloud suddenly appeared above the city, and everyone looked at the mushroom cloud in a daze.

The three brothers of the Mo family let the stones and gravel move rapidly on their faces, and looked directly at the mushroom cloud, speechless for a while.

"A miracle~ simply, it's a miracle." Mo He muttered from his mouth.

Li Chengqian grinned, three thousand catties of black powder were piled together and exploded. Medicine. The power is determined by its heat, the amount of gaseous products and the reaction speed, the land that freezes hard in winter is the best firing room, after the burning of 3,000 catties of gunpowder in an instant, the heat generated is a hundred meters high mountain can be easily leveled, not to mention this artificially piled city wall.

A gust of wind blew, and the smoke mixed with a huge amount of dust moved sideways towards the east, revealing in front of everyone that there was a pile of scattered Qiuzi City, which had already exposed the scene in the city.

The heat blast not only destroyed the house, but also ignited all the houses in the vicinity.

The people looked through the collapsed city wall in the distance as they knelt on the ground, their mouths wide open, and stared at the sudden change in amazement.

"Whole army! Besiege! ”

With Li Chengqian's order, the giant drum hammer sounded, and the generals on the side of the Tang Army roared: "Sword and shield team!" Enter! ”

"Mo Dao Team! Enter! ”

"Archers! Enter! ”

On both sides of the city wall, a large number of Tang soldiers holding swords and shields, braving the threat of arrow rain to charge towards the breach, gradually began to suppress the rain of arrows at the head of the city after the archers under their escort approached.

"Don't pause! Town! Grab the wall! ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The Modao team crossed the ruins of the city wall and began to make contact with the surrounding army.

Hysterical shouts marched forward, and the rain of arrows occasionally knocked people to the ground, and the crowd behind followed.

At the other end, the Tang people's infantry team also began to advance slowly, and the warriors at the front rushed towards this side with two large iron shields.

After the march of the 10,000 army, the ruined head of the city had been trampled very flat, and it was a little farther behind the city wall. The cavalry of the Tuli and Tiele tribes also began to approach rapidly, and began to suppress the projectiles on the city with their arrow feathers.

Even though warriors fell from their horses from time to time after several shots, the Eastern Turkic cavalry did not leave the area, and still maintained a high density of arrows covering the wall.

Behind the city wall, Batu has been shooting under the city wall for a long time, and there are thirty Tang sergeants in the cavalry who have been shot by Batu, he is one of the best archers on the grassland, but when he shouted and shot another arrow at the city, an arrow was stuck in his shoulder.

He gritted his teeth and crouched back behind the wall, his head covered in sweat from weakness and pain, his hands trembling with death, hardly because of the arrow that was now in his shoulder, his hand.

Especially on the five fingers, the skin has been opened, all of them are blood, four of them are wrapped in cloth, still soaked out by blood, and the unwrapped middle finger is full of blood, and the bones are almost visible.

"Ah......h
