Hearing the cheers of the mountains under the city, Zhou Bian's fists clenched a little more, staring closely at the figure of the man who jumped up to the city, finally did the Han soldiers still attack the city? Although he knew that there would inevitably be a short battle on the city wall, he didn't expect it to come so quickly, was it because the royal family had not invested enough troops?

But there are still 50,000 Han soldiers in the distance under the city who have not moved, and nearly 20,000 people still don't know whether to stay in the barracks, and Luoyang City is dozens of miles, how dare Zhou Bian put all his troops here? Or is there too few troops, the equipment is too poor, time, if there is still time, even if it is another half a year, Zhou Bian believes that this is not the case, but, the hateful Han Hou, why not give some time?

Up and down the city, I don't know how many people are staring at that figure closely, the people of the royal family are worried, and Han Jun is full of hope. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, one person still can't make the climate after all, several royal soldiers nearby stabbed at the same time with spears, the sturdy Han soldier waved the long sword in his hand and pushed away the two spears, but after all, the third spear pierced the small shield, and then the fourth spear stabbed into the body from the other side, and then the two spears that were previously opened pierced at the same time, and the blood rushed out like a fountain, and the Han soldier was no longer able to raise the long sword in his hand, and his unwilling body softened violently.

The four royal soldiers roared violently, and together they picked up the Han soldiers who were stuck in the spears, and threw them down the city, just hitting the next Korean soldier who had just jumped up to the city, and the corpse fell from the city together with the Han soldiers who had just climbed the city wall, smashed on the ladder, rolled down the ladder, and smashed several Korean soldiers who were climbing the ladder.

The momentum of the Korean army was stagnant, and the city wall was full of applause. At this moment, two more catapults were raised high behind the city wall, throwing out a flying stone and smashing it into the dense place of the Korean army under the city, and the morale of the king was even higher.

Seeing that the defense line was pulled back under the city wall, Zhou Bian breathed a sigh of relief, put down the butt that he had raised because of nervousness, and wiped it with his hand, but his face was full of sweat, and he didn't know whether it was originally on his face or out of his palm, and it was too hot this day. At this time, a ray of sunlight directly entered the hall, Zhou Bian looked up, but it turned out to shine in from the hole in the top of the hall, at this time it was clear that the sun was the highest, it turned out that unconsciously, the morning time had passed, and it was noon.

At noon, the weather was unbearably hot, and it was uncomfortable to sit in the temple, not to mention the soldiers who were fighting on the city wall?

Thinking that the Korean army's offensive would not last long, after all, at noon in June, the power of the sky was unstoppable, Zhou Bian pondered, waved his hand, ordered to go down, and pressed another thousand people up, and at the same time ordered Bai Gui to organize migrant workers to go to the city, help the seriously injured soldiers down the city, and also carry some wooden barrels to the city, if there are thirsty people, you can steal empty and drink saliva, after all, it has been sunbathed for so long, although drinking saliva is a waste of time, but the efficiency improved is not comparable to this time. It's just that the poor people can't kill the enemy, but they still have to brave the rain of arrows to run back and forth on the city wall.

Then there were several Han soldiers jumping off the city on the ladder, but without exception they were all pushed out by sharp spears, I have to say that in the defense of the city, the place was already narrow, and the spears stabbed the Han soldiers and could not hide at all, and the spear momentum was great, and it was the vigorous soldiers who rushed up, but what was thrown down was a corpse.

And under the city gate, there was also a roar, which was Han Bing carrying a giant tree and smashing the door. The city gate was guarded by veterans of the Imperial Forest Army, and they had already smashed down the golden boulders and other objects, so the roar was also intermittent, and it seemed that the city gate did not need to worry for a while.

Zhou Bian was worried about the 50,000 troops in the rear, sitting in the hall, and he could just see the black oppression in front of him, standing there like a forest, giving people great coercion.

At this time, under the head of the city, two miles away, a group of generals put their hands on their foreheads and looked at the stalemate battle for the city wall with a heavy face.

A young voice sounded, "Father, now, the sun is at its highest, and it will set in the west in a while, and our army will face direct sunlight, which is not conducive to the offensive!" ”

"What Han Jun said is reasonable, and the old man didn't expect that this royal family defending the city would be so powerful, and there was a device that I don't know how to throw a large number of stones, which was extremely lethal to our army. And the weather is hot, it seems that today will not be able to take the city, so it is better to withdraw the army and fight again in the future. Han Hu said leisurely, indeed, although there is a shed on the chariot to block the sun, the old general is still sweating like rain, and his armor is already soaked, and it is the time when the heat is unbearable.

There was already a general nodding, but a voice sounded from the side, "General, the last general thinks that it is the hot weather that makes our soldiers unable to attack the city, you see that some soldiers behind the 30,000 army are just holding weapons and waving and shouting, but they do not come forward, on the contrary, the Luoyang soldiers on the city wall are all desperate, so how to take the city?" The meaning of the last general, if the last general personally stepped forward to urge, and then stormed for an hour, if he still couldn't capture the city, it was not too late to retreat, so as not to let the people of Luoyang underestimate our Korean army. ”

Han Hu turned his head and saw that it was the vanguard officer Su Rui, and after pondering for a while, Han Hu nodded, "It's okay, just take the five thousand soldiers of Erzhi's headquarters and press them down." ”

"No!" As soon as Su Rui arched his hand on the chariot, he immediately urged his horseman, hit the horse forward, and after waving the halberd in his hand a few times, a small formation came out of the large array of the Han army, and quickly rushed towards the direction of Luoyang City.

And such a movement naturally quickly alarmed the people above the city of Luoyang. Seeing that there were soldiers rushing in the big array, and when he heard the sentry report that it was estimated at about 5,000 people, Zhou Bian couldn't help but squint his eyes.

If the Han army wants to take Luoyang in one fell swoop, adding another 5,000 people is too little, you must know that there are still more than 40,000 people in the rear, if you add the nearly 20,000 crossbow troops withdrawn, it is as much as 60,000, and if the Han army decides to give up on attacking Luoyang today, why add another 5,000 people?

Suddenly, Zhou Bian thought of something, and waved his little hand, "Add all the reserves under the city to the city!" ”

For the 100,000 army, the addition of 5,000 people is really not enough, perhaps, this is the last offensive of the Korean army today, in order to reduce the losses of the royal soldiers, then take a gamble, press all the troops arranged by the royal family at the east gate, and take the opportunity to kill and injure the Korean army. However, there will be no reserves within the east gate, once the Korean army presses more troops, the consequences will be unimaginable, this is really a risky decision, thinking of this, Zhou Bian clenched his fists tightly.

Standing at the top to make a decision, it is really a high-risk job, the pressure is too great, if you can really choose, Zhou Bian, who is sitting in the hall, even wants to go into battle to kill the enemy in that moment.

Looking nervously outside the hall, there are killing fields everywhere, and as soon as a Han soldier rushed to the wall, several spears came at his head. And the royal soldiers were not only under the scorching sun, but also the arrows in the sky, and the battlefield was tragic, and they no longer had time to count the casualties like the first two armies shooting at each other.

And with the departure of the heralds, soon from both ends of the city wall there were groups of royal soldiers, or holding spears, or brandishing long swords, or throwing short spears behind their backs, under the leadership of their respective commanders, quickly ran to their respective areas of responsibility, the defense line of the Luoyang city wall suddenly became a lot of trouble, and the people on the city wall withdrew one after another, so as not to crowd the city wall and easily injure their own people by mistake.

However, not far away, Zhou Bian unexpectedly found a familiar figure, where Liu Yun killed Zhenghuan, only to see him standing three steps behind the female wall, guarding a cloud ladder at the head of the wall, the spear in his hand was rounded, and a Han soldier came up to solve one, those Han soldiers were under the iron spear, none of them could pass three moves, Liu Yun was already full of corpses in front of him, and within the range of the spear swing beside him, there was not even a Luoyang soldier.

It seems that this guy has a ladder for one person, and he can finally kill happily today. However, it is precisely because there is a vacant space next to it that it is particularly eye-catching on top of this crowded city wall. Zhou Bian looked up, and there was no tall structure in the camp of the Korean army under the city on the opposite side that could make people see the distribution of troops on the city wall, otherwise I am afraid that Liu Yun would have attracted the attention of the Korean army and become the focus of care.

Soon, a sergeant came to report that the 5,000 troops pressed by the Korean army had rushed to the rear of the Korean army, but they did not continue to rush forward beyond the previous army, but used their spears to drive the three large formations of Korean soldiers who had killed first to rush forward. Also, Zhou Bian's people on the city wall had already discovered that the Han soldiers hiding behind were only shouting and not rushing to kill, and Zhou Bian was naturally happy.

And now there are Korean soldiers to press the formation to drive away, a moment later, you can see the city wall outside the palace, our army pressure doubled, because you can see more and more Korean soldiers rushing to the city wall, and now the two armies have mostly fought in short arms.

Looking out nervously, he could only hope for his soldiers, such a bloody scene, but he couldn't go into battle to kill the enemy in person, this feeling was really not good, he only hated that this body was too small, Zhou Bian had never been so eager to grow up quickly.

Suddenly, a soldier came to report, "King, under the city gate, the Han soldiers hit the city gate with a giant log, and the city gate is about to fall apart, and the back of the city gate is almost unbearable." ”

Zhou Bian was suddenly shocked, "How is this good?" Aren't there soldiers attacking down at my gates? ”

"The enemy soldiers raised a lot of bronze shields on their heads, and they could only be injured by throwing stones, but there were too many Korean soldiers, they were killed in the front, and they came up in the back, but I am afraid that there are several layers of corpses piled on the ground in front of the city gate."

"Be sure to resist and find someone to bring some more stones. Later, let the people put some wood on top. Zhou Bian said hurriedly.

After the soldier left, Zhou Bian thought about it carefully, there was indeed a dead end under the city gate, so close, the catapult couldn't be thrown at all, and he couldn't shoot down with a bow and arrow, and he couldn't do it, it seemed that he still ignored the city gate, of course, if it was a heavy copper gate, it would be fine if it was a heavy copper gate, and it couldn't be smashed open at all, but the royal family didn't have the economic strength to do so.

"Since arrows and other things can't be killed, why don't you use fire?" Fan Yu on the side reminded.

Zhou Bian patted his head when he heard this, "Yes, why didn't this king think of it." There is firewood burning wood on the city wall, find someone to pick up more of it, throw it down directly, throw more of it, you can't burn it, and you will smoke them to death. Fan Yu, you will lead people forward, and this king is safe. ”

After Fan Yu left, Zhou Bian breathed a sigh of relief, there were really many people.

Looking at the city wall again, the sound of killing was still shocking, and the soldiers on both sides were at the junction of the ladder and the city wall, and the life-and-death battle did not stop, intensifying.

Looking for it again, in a small clearing, Liu Yun came into his eyes again, only to see that he was as invincible as a god, and there were no enemies with three moves, and suddenly he seemed to be able to hear Liu Yun suddenly make a sound, and the spear pierced into the body of a Han soldier in front of him, and the strength did not disappear, the spear stood up, and threw the body of the Han soldier down the city, just at this time, the spear shaft finally could not bear the weight of a person, and broke in the middle.

Seeing that Liu Yun threw away the spear, half of the spear fell down with the corpse to the city, Liu Yun picked up a spear from his side in a hurry and went to the next target.

Turning his gaze into the distance again, he suddenly found a figure, although he was a little staggering, but he was still fighting bravely to kill the enemy, and what attracted Zhou Bian was naturally not only this, there were too many soldiers like this on the city wall, but Zhou Bian happened to see the next action of that figure, but he hugged a Han soldier and fell down from the city with that Han soldier.

This is clearly a life for life, although Zhou Bian was moved, but seriously, he would not encourage this practice in the army, after all, there are few soldiers in the royal family, and every life is extremely important. Hey, now I have to write down the place where the soldier jumped first, and after the Korean army retreats later, I will go down to the city to find the body, bury it, and care for future generations.

Then he turned his gaze back to the front, and saw that there was smoke floating under the city gate in front of him. I don't know how much firewood was thrown, looking at the smoke billowing out, maybe it can really stop the Korean soldiers.

Suddenly, Zhou Bian found a green battle flag fluttering in the distance, called the sergeant to ask, only to learn that it was a chariot, which was supervising the battle in the rear of the enemy army, and its chariot was only more than a hundred steps away from Luoyang City.

There must be an officer on the chariot, and the thief will capture the king first, this sentence instantly popped up in Zhou Bian's mind, "Hurry up and tell that Tu Qiang, can you adjust the angle of the catapult and smash the person on the chariot to death." ”

"No!" The herald turned and left.

I hope it can be effective, Zhou Bian waited quietly.
