Knock, knock, knock...... At dawn, the drums and horns sounded in unison, kicking off the battle of the eldest sons.

In the midst of shouts and killings, Kang Long, Fuqu Nancheng, Kuai En, and Gao Jinzhi each led a thousand sword and shield soldiers to cover the four city walls.

At the same time, all light and heavy equipment such as ballistas, bed crossbows, well slabs, and ladders also appeared.

Cloud ladders, wells, and ballistas were mixed in the army, and nearly 6,000 troops were as dense as ant colonies, and they were vast and majestic, covering all sides of the eldest son city.

The people of Xiyan seem to know the tactics of the Hexi army very well, and they also know that the Hexi army has sharp crossbows.

Therefore, at the beginning of the war, everyone hid behind the city wall, for fear of being strung with a crossbow from the bed.

It's a pity that they dodged the crossbow arrows, but they couldn't dodge the overwhelming rain of boulders.

More than a hundred boulders roared down from the sky, smashed into the city walls, and kept tumbling.

In an instant, the head of the city was full of flesh and blood, and the screams resounded through the four fields.

Boulders smashed into the crowd one after another, and terrible screams kept coming.

The great fear caused the morale of the defenders to drop rapidly, and many of the faint-hearted even turned to run.

However, Murong Yong had been prepared for this.

He personally led people to press the formation in the rear, and several soldiers who had just escaped a few steps away were immediately cut down.

In order to cope with the Ballista offensive of the Hexi Army, Murong Yong also made some trebuchets.

He was about to give the order to fight back, but he saw a boulder happen to hit a catapult.

In an instant, the catapult was smashed to pieces, the giant trees flew wildly, and the corpses took off, so angry that Murong Yong scolded.

Finally, after paying a certain price, the defenders finally survived the most terrifying ballista strike.

Under Murong Yong's strict order, the defenders launched a counterattack, and 30,000 people passed through the battlements of the city wall and continuously fired arrows downward.

The crossbowmen of the Hexi army shot arrows at an elevation angle under the city, and the arrows on both sides were like dense rain, weaving into pieces of black arrow rain in the sky, falling into the sky, and the cycle began again and again.

Fortunately, the Hexi army was protected by armor and suffered few casualties, while the defenders suffered heavy casualties, and some people kept screaming for arrows.

Under a dense rain of arrows, the besieging army finally crossed the moat and began to approach the city walls.

At this time, the city walls and moats were all filled with the corpses of the Xiyan people, with all kinds of postures, and their faces were hideous and miserable.

The fledgling newcomers may be uncomfortable when they see the scene in front of them, while some veterans of a hundred battles turn a blind eye and walk in the sea of corpses and blood with unchanged expressions.

At this time, more than a dozen large-scale siege ladders and wells arrived in time with a rumbling sound.

Each well was loaded with thirty soldiers, each with a longbow and a crossbow, and more than 100 people below, responsible for promoting.

The well slowly approached the wall, and when it came to a stop less than fifty paces from the wall, the archers above began to shoot arrows to suppress the archers of the defenders at the head of the city.

From the very beginning, the Hexi Army launched a fierce offensive against the eldest son, and various siege equipment were put into battle.

Counting several heavy equipment such as bed crossbows, ballista cannons, and wells, the one that poses the greatest threat to the enemy is the ballista.

To put it bluntly, the ballista is actually a super-large bed crossbow, except that the bed crossbow shoots crossbow arrows, while the ballista shoots a polished boulder.

Under normal circumstances, the boulder weighs about 50 catties and has a range of about 80 steps.

A military commander pointed to the city wall of the eldest son in front of him and shouted, "Wound up and aim!" ”

Ten soldiers pushed the long winch rod with great difficulty, and the huge bowstring was squeaked open and buckled to the hook.

Next, several soldiers worked together to fill a boulder weighing forty catties into the shooting slot, and at the same time, someone passed through Wangshan and was specially responsible for calibrating the shooting angle.

When the soldiers adjusted the shooting angle according to the scale, the commander in charge of the army immediately shouted.

"Launch!"

One of the soldiers pulled out the hook sharply, and with a loud bang, a stone projectile flew out of the firing groove and roared towards the wall fifty paces away.

'Boom! There was a loud bang on the ground, and a boulder struck the top of the city, and smashed a corner of the wall.

Suddenly, the rubble flew sideways, and dozens of Hou soldiers next to them had no time to react, and they were all killed.

Huge boulders roared and smashed against the city walls.

For a while, the gravel flew, the boulder rolled, and one of the boulders knocked over a dozen defenders in a row.

Under the cover of ballistas and bed crossbows, the siege ladder took the opportunity to catch up on the head of the city, and the iron hook in the front section firmly hooked the wall bricks of the city head.

The Hexi soldiers climbed up with their shields, and at this time, the rolling wood and stones on the head of the city continued to fall.

The soldier who was hit screamed and fell down the ladder into the trench below, where he died.

But the Hexi soldiers had already killed the red eyes, regardless of the casualties, and continued to climb towards the city wall.

Although the crossbow and bed crossbow of the Hexi Army are powerful, they are still cold weapons after all, and they cannot be compared with artillery in terms of lethality or accuracy, and can only be used to deter the enemy.

Although some of the ladders and wells were destroyed by the Yan army, they could not destroy all of them.

In the blink of an eye, seven or eight more ladders were set up at the head of the city, and dozens of Hexi soldiers jumped onto the city wall in an instant along the ladders.

At the same time, 100 defenders killed from both sides and fought fiercely with the Hexi army.

Although it moves slowly and is easily destroyed, it can deliver precision strikes once it is close to a wall.

This was an incomparable advantage of large bed crossbows, and more and more soldiers climbed the walls under the cover of the archers on the wells.

The Hexi soldiers climbed the ladder and rushed up wildly, brandishing horizontal knives and fighting with the rushing enemy troops.

Dozens of defenders lay in ambush on the horse wall, holding bows and arrows to sneak up on the Hexi soldiers who had just come up.

As a result, more than a dozen Hexi soldiers fell into the city screaming.

The battle gradually became bloody and fierce, and as more and more Hexi soldiers slaughtered the city, they gradually mixed up with the defenders of the city.

The Xiyan generals on the city wall kept shouting and commanding the archers, shooting at the approaching Hexi army.

"Release, release the arrow."

"What about archers? Fuck the arrows and shoot these sons of bitches in the Hexi Army. ”

"Don't let them get close, move quickly!!"

"Ahhh Under the attack of intensive arrow rain, the Hexi army, which was besieging the city, screamed again and again, and the offensive was stalled.

Seeing this, Sima Xiuzhi, who was commanding the crossbowmen, couldn't help but be furious, and shouted at the crossbowmen: "Damn it! Shoot for Lao Tzu, shoot hard to the city tower. ”

Enemy archers shoot at each other, causing arrows to fly all over the sky.

The terrible screams, the sound of 'poof' arrows into the flesh, are intertwined, telling the relentlessness of war.

The soldiers on both sides of the enemy shouted and fought frantically together.

"Kill, rush......"

"Kill into the city and ......"

"Quick, archery."

"Pour oil, pour oil, scald these sons of bitch."

"Throw stones, smash me, don't let them climb up, quick."

The continuous howls resounded in the sky, on the city walls, under the city walls, rivers of blood, and stumps and broken arms everywhere.

There were even many soldiers who fell to the ground after being hit by arrows and could not move, and could only wail in misery, which was unbearable to see.

But there is no mercy in war, there are only victories and defeats.

The fierce siege continued, which lasted until the evening.

The sun is like blood, and the bright red shrouds the earth, and with the blood stains everywhere, it is like a hell of Shura.

The battlefield was filled with the terrible roars of the generals, the sound of weapons colliding, and the screams of death and disease, all mixed together to form this bloody and beautiful picture.

With a "poof", Cunn struggled to kill one of the defenders, five times, and he had climbed the wall five times in a row, but each time it was a little bit close.

But the defending sergeant seems to be at the end of the rope, as long as the Hexi army insists on coming a few more times, no, even if it comes again, he believes that the eldest son will be lost immediately, so that all the tragedies in front of him will end.

Thinking of this, Kuang's face turned fierce, and he shouted bitterly, "Look, the enemy army is not good, hold on, as long as we persevere, the victory will be ours, kill it......"

"Kill," the soldiers were the first to shout.

Soon, more and more Hexi soldiers joined the ranks of the roaring, and at this moment, the bloody nature was once again stimulated.

The red-eyed Hexi soldier roared again, killing the enemy with all his might.

Suddenly, the pressure on the front was reduced, and Korn finally captured the city for the sixth time.

However, as soon as he reached the wall, he was attracted by a young enemy general in bright armor on the opposite side.

Needless to ask, just by looking at the way he was dressed, Kuang knew that this person's identity was not simple.

He forced his heart to rejoice, and slowly slew the young enemy general......
