Chapter 429: Xiliang Xing (61)

Roar Roar Roar !!

Ahead, the trebuchet had already thrown all 500 boulders out and slowly retreated backwards, while at the same time, 10,000 siege soldiers marched towards the tower with neat steps and heart-rending roars. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The siege has completely begun...

Wu Qing has not come back, Du Ran is commanding the battle in the city, as soon as the trebuchet stops, he is not afraid, let the soldiers stand up and prepare to resist the siege of the enemy, and the soldiers in the rear will clean up the stones and dead people, so as not to get in the way in the city.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner...

The soldiers besieging the city moved very quickly, it can be seen that after strict training, after the trebuchet stopped, they all walked towards the tower, first neatly and orderly, but when the pontoon bridge was placed in the moat, everyone walked across the moat, and they all ran quickly.

Why run?

Because once you cross the moat, you are within range of the enemy's bow and arrow, and you will be attacked whether you run or not.

This is the difference between elite soldiers and new soldiers, like Sun Fu and Li Dejiang's troops, before they reached the moat, they rushed to the city tower like fools, and before they could rush to the city wall, they were afraid that they were already tired. However, Cheng Yanjin's troops were not in a panic, and waited until they reached the other side of the moat before moving forward quickly. It can not only save physical strength, but also have explosive power.

In just the blink of an eye, 10,000 soldiers approached the city, the ladders were all set up at the head of the city, the siege towers were approaching, and all the soldiers climbed towards the top of the city.

Whoosh...

At the edge of the moat, there were about 1,000 archers and 2,000 sword and shield men, and while attacking the city, under the cover of the sword and shield men, the archers bent their bows and arrows and shot at the city.

The presence of archers can not only cover the soldiers besieging the city, but also fight back against the enemy soldiers defending the city.

Burst! Burst! Burst!

As soon as Du Ran came up, the soldiers beside him were shot three in succession, and four or five arrow feathers were shooting at him, Du Ran snorted coldly, the long sword came out of the body, and a few whirls blocked the arrow feathers to the side.

Du Ran shouted: "Where are the archers, shoot at me and kill the enemy's archers!" ”

In response to Du Ran's order, one hundred and ten archers gathered over, and under the cover of shield soldiers, they fiercely attacked in the direction of the moat below.

It's a pity that there are many archers below, but there are also many sword and shield hands, all the shields are raised, like a turtle shell, there is no hole, the bow and arrow can't be inserted at all, only a dinging sound on the shield, and it falls to the ground.

Three rounds of shooting in a row fell short, but more than half of the more than 100 soldiers who came over were injured.

"How can it be!"

Du Ran's expression was a little angry.

"Don't move the stones, pick them up for me and throw them down the city!"

"Is the giant tree ready, move it quickly..."

.......

One by one, the generals were in a hurry, and they commanded their men to meet the enemy, and they also held their own sections of the city wall firmly without Du Ran's orders, but this was all temporary, and as soon as the siege tower arrived, they all encountered problems.

The siege tower was so powerful that the enemy could climb over the wall several feet high, climb directly to the top, and then walk across the pontoon bridge to the tower, and if the archers did not stop it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

All the generals knew the power of the siege towers, and each section of the city wall was prepared with 300 to 500 archers, and these people did nothing, just waited there to watch the siege towers coming.

Syllable!

The pontoon bridge was lowered, and a group of soldiers rushed out of the siege tower.

"Shoot the arrow, release the arrow quickly!!"

Whoosh...

The five hundred soldiers who had been prepared for a long time fired at the siege tower, and before the soldiers in the tower could come out in a hurry, a large number of them fell and fell down one after another.

But shoot one and two, shoot ten and twenty, and never finish shooting, go on and on... At the slightest opportunity, the soldiers in the tower will reflex and shoot the soldiers in the way of the city to the ground, and then take the opportunity to go upstairs.

One of the five siege towers broke through the defense line of the tower, and the two teams of soldiers ran smoothly to the tower and fought with the soldiers on the city.

These soldiers were divided into experienced soldiers, and after running up to the tower, they did not rush to kill, but guarded the gap between the siege tower and the tower, and surrounded the place in a circle. This ensures that the soldiers coming from behind will continue to go upstairs. Being able to have such a quality is enough to show that Cheng Yanjin, a siege soldier, is very strong, and it is by no means comparable to ordinary soldiers, and it must have been baptized with iron and blood.

The battle has just begun, there are already enemy soldiers upstairs, which makes the generals defending the city a little embarrassed, they also said that the Qinglong Pass is unbreakable, even if there is no 200,000 troops, it can't be broken, but now it seems that it has not met the elite, and when the elite arrives, no matter how tall the city tower is, it can't withstand the attack.

However, the main reason for the enemy army to go to the city is still on the siege tower, which is too rebellious...

Except for the location of the siege towers, there were no enemy troops going up to the city. Du Ran quickly pounced with his own soldiers, and with a killing rage, he finally blocked the mouth and cleared all the enemy troops on the city tower.

The captain who did not guard the city tower was immediately taught a lesson by Du Ran, and instructed not to make the same mistake again.

"Big brother, I'm here..."

After half a cup of tea, Wu Qing ran from the inner city and walked to Du Ran.

Du Ran looked towards the city, the black cavalry had been brought, and he was ready for a big battle, Du Ran asked, "How is it?" It's five thousand, right? ”

Wu Qingdao: "Big brother, I have brought 80,000 cavalry, of which 5,000 are in the front, as long as I give an order, they will rush out." ”

"If the situation of 5,000 people is gratifying, our 75,000 elites will also be invested, and no piece of armor will be left behind to kill him!"

"Okay, just as you say."

Du Ran also held his breath and was too lazy to think about it.

Du Ran said: "At this moment, the enemy army is attacking fiercely, morale is high, it is not appropriate to go out of the city, wait for noon, you will take people out again, and I will sweep the battle for you." ”

"Yes."

Wu Qing arched his hand and said.

Cheng Yanjin and the others were a little impatient, and they also had doubts about Xu Maogong's strategy: "Stinky old man, in order to lure Du Ran, we gave out 10,000 elite soldiers, don't do a loss-making deal." ”

Xu Maogong laughed and said, "A loss-making business? When have I ever made a loss-making transaction? ”

"You two, you've known me for so long, why don't you know me, I said they would come out, they will definitely come out, just wait."

Xu Maogong looked at Cheng Yanjin and said: "Remember, when the enemy army comes out, don't rush to kill, I have my own way to trap his 80,000 cavalry!" ”

"He thinks that I don't have a formation, but I want him to see and understand, what does it mean to have no formation."

Wei Chi said earnestly: "Okay, I know you're powerful, just don't be slapped in the face." ”

Cheng Yanjin laughed.
