For the defense of the city, Gao Chang sent more than a dozen skilled craftsmen led by Ma Jun, who were newly recruited, and thanks to these skilled craftsmen, the city wall was equipped with 240 heavy trebuchets, 400 bed crossbows, and a large number of thistle thorns were scattered in the fields outside the city to deal with the cavalry.
It was probably the afternoon of the seventh day after Qin Qiong was stationed at Yulin Pass, and there was a low sound of horns in the field, and the Karasuma army finally arrived.
Ten miles away in the field, a group of cavalry galloped back and forth, raised their heads and blew the antlers, the low trumpet continued to echo in the field, not far behind them, the murderous Karasuma cavalry lined up endlessly, headed by a general, medium stature, a long and wide face, heavy eyebrows and deep eyes, dignified, holding a crested gorse axe, it was the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom who had just entered the Jin Kingdom Wanyan Zongbi Golden Vulture Technique.
On the left side of the Golden Vulture is a general, a camel skin armor is shining like dragon scales, a tiger with a wolf waist, a burly body, a green horse under the crotch, and a drum purple gold hammer weighing 120 catties in each hand, which is the Wanyan Golden Bullet born with the Golden Vulture.
The person on the right is wearing a black robe, with a three-inch goatee under his cheeks, and he is dressed as a Taoist priest.
He was followed by four generals, namely Han Chang and Xia Jinwu, who were born with him, and Karasuma's local generals Anlu and Ohezhi.
Jin Wushu has outstanding ability, and was promoted to Ye Hu by Yuwen Yong, appointed as a pioneer general, and led 50,000 iron cavalry to open the way for the army.
Hearing that the scout came to report that Yulin Pass had been occupied by the Jizhou army, Jin Wushu showed a sneer, and pointed at the Yulin Pass in the distance, "The Han people are cowardly, and I ordered to slaughter all the Han troops after capturing this pass to deter the Central Plains." ā
Immediately turned around and ordered: "Han Chang, take this level!" ā
"Obey!"
Han Chang got the order, and immediately turned around and waved his flag, "Follow me!" ā
Five thousand iron horsemen followed Han Chang and ran towards the wall ten miles away, the cavalry was huge, and the five thousand iron horsemen were like a rolling torrent to kill the city, the huge sound of horses' hooves echoed on the grassland like muffled thunder, and the overwhelming dust covered the sky.
This is the general tactics of Hu Lu siege city, the use of iron cavalry to create a huge momentum to deter the opponent, the siege cavalry will generally be painted with hair, so that their appearance becomes more and more fierce and vicious, five thousand such fierce and evil people concentrated and run wildly, but also will have a huge impact on the psychology of the defenders of the city.
The five thousand iron horsemen are getting closer and closer to the city, and a sudden change has occurred!
Several war horses running in front suddenly neighed and fell forward, and the fallen war horses mixed with dozens of war horses behind, and the war horses and cavalry fell one after another. Later, the large group of iron cavalry could not stop, the galloping war horses trampled on the fallen cavalry, the soldiers were suddenly blurred with flesh and blood, and the screams were loud, the timid cavalry was suddenly frightened to turn their horses' heads, and the phalanx of five thousand cavalry was in chaos for a moment.
Qin Qiong ordered loudly at the head of the city: "Release the arrow!" ā
Whoosh!
Arrows rained down, weaving a black web of arrows across the sky.
Puff puff!
The sound of arrows entering the armor was incessant, and the Karasuma cavalry who were in chaos under the castle were shot to the ground in pieces, and the screams were loud for a while, and blood was spilling everywhere.
Seeing that the five thousand cavalry besieging the city had suffered heavy damage, Jin Wushu said angrily: "Whole army, charge!" ā
Ha Mi Chi on the side hurriedly advised: "Lord Yehu, the enemy army should be sprinkled with thistles outside the city, I'm afraid it won't be good for our cavalry to attack it!" ā
Jin Wushu glared, "Then what good can you do?" ā
Ha Mi rolled his eyes and said, "We can pave the road with wooden planks to provide a way for the army to kill directly to the city!" ā
Jin Wushu nodded, "Okay, that's it!" After that, he got off the war horse in his crotch and ran out.
With the movement of the Golden Vulture Technique, the army of 45,000 was like a dense colony of ants, slaughtering Yulin Pass in a mighty way, covering the wilderness outside Yulin Pass.
At the suggestion of Ha Mi, they paved the way with wooden planks and paved dozens of boardwalks, allowing the Karasuma army to avoid assassination on the ground and rush forward in the rain of arrows!
Qin Qiong saw the movements of the Karasuma army on the wall. sneered, the leader of this Karasuma army is quite flexible, but unfortunately, did he think that everything would be fine if he defended the ground?
He immediately ordered: "Trebuchet, release!" ā
Almost at the same time as he said this, dozens of thunderous noises suddenly came from the city, accompanied by the heavy fall of huge objects, and the sound of whizzing and volleying heavy objects, and the Karasuma cavalry who were charging suddenly felt that the sky was suddenly dark, and when they looked up into the air, they saw a black and crushing boulder falling from the sky and smashing it into themselves.
Hundreds of boulders roared down from the sky, rolling in the Karasuma crowd, flesh and blood flying, screams resounded throughout the field, a thousand-pound boulder smashed down and rolled towards the crowd, screaming, blood splattered, smashed into several people into flesh, the boulder knocked over more than a dozen people in a row, the light was seriously injured, and the heavy one was crossed. Before the Karasuma cavalry could slow down, the second wave of boulders roared again, and the Karasuma cavalry was smashed and dizzy, and instantly collapsed, and they scattered with their heads in their hands, never daring to take a step forward.
Seeing that there was nothing to be done, Jin Wushu sighed, "Retreat and camp, retreat!" ā
