Chapter 227: White Heat

It turned out that after an hour of observation, Bai Heng had figured out the defensive laws of the rebel army, far away from the bow and arrow, close to the rolling wood thunder stone, and then close to the hook rod, the second ** hit the second echelon, so that the backup could not support the first echelon, and divided the encirclement.

After collecting the troops, Bai Heng carefully thought about Gao Biying's entire attack process, and began to prepare for the second siege, this time, Bai Heng still attacked in the same way as before, but he attacked not one gate, but two, the east and west gates attacked at the same time, this attack, Bai Heng did not guard the east gate, but handed over the east gate to a deputy general, and he went to the west gate.

Since the attack method has not changed, so Bai Heng's departure, Gao Biying didn't know, she has always been in charge of the overall situation at the east gate, after the second ** attack began, Gao Biying received a report, saying that the east and west gates were attacked at the same time, and the attack strength was almost the same.

After asking someone to bring her pre-formulated defense to Hu Jinquan, Gao Biying began to concentrate on defending the east gate.

As soon as the battle started, Hu Jinquan of Ximen felt the pressure, this time Bai Heng still opened the way with artillery first, but this time the artillery did not stop after the soldiers reached the moat, but bombarded until the soldiers crossed the moat, and after crossing the moat, these soldiers did not rush to start building ladders.

All the soldiers who crossed the river lined up along the moat, waiting for the people behind to cross the river, and the shelling lasted for a full time of incense, and the soldiers who crossed the river were already standing by the moat.

As soon as the shelling stopped, the rebels in the city had just raised their heads, and the ladders under the city had already reached the battlements, and this time under each ladder, there were twenty soldiers who fixed the ladders to the city wall with ropes.

The first wave of hooks did not push the ladder away, and Hu Jinquan knew that the enemy was going to the city, and while directing the soldiers to smash them down with rolling wood and thunder stones, he organized the soldiers and prepared for white-knuckle combat.

After half a pillar of incense, the first wave of attacking officers and soldiers had already rushed to the head of the city, and the rebels launched hand-to-hand combat, swords and swords saw blood, flesh and blood flew sideways, this kind of siege war, either you die, or I live, there is no intermediate value at all.

Seeing that the enemy had rushed to the city wall, Hu Jinquan shook the spear in his hand, and the first one rushed forward, one shot at a time, and Hu Jinquan began to slaughter.

Although he can defend a ladder by himself, there are more than 40 ladders on the city this time, and he can't prevent them at all by relying on these people on the city wall alone.

After the officers and soldiers went up to the city wall, not all of them went to the rebels to fight, a small team, after going up the wall near the city gate, cut down several nearby rebels, went straight to the winch of the suspension bridge, and rushed over.

Hu Jinquan's defensive position was not very far from the city gate, and he discovered the unusualness of this team as soon as the team boarded the city wall.

First of all, after this squad came up, it did not take the initiative to expand the attack range, and secondly, the attack power of this squad was not comparable to other ordinary soldiers.

After overturning a few soldiers besieging him, Hu Jinquan rushed towards the squad with a gun, and as soon as he made contact, Hu Jinquan overturned two.

Seeing that these soldiers were not very difficult to deal with, Hu Jinquan was just about to expand the results of the battle and bring all the results of this team, except for the two leading people, the others of this team suddenly turned around and directly surrounded Hu Jinquan.

Now each other's purpose is clear, one side wants to destroy the winch and lower the drawbridge, and the other side wants to kill everyone and stop them from sabotage.

After Hu Jinquan himself was entangled, he hurriedly called the soldiers around him to stop the two people from destroying the winch, although he was kind, but at this time, he did something bad.

When he beckoned his soldiers to defend the winch, the officers and soldiers who attacked the city wall also heard his shout and threw themselves at the winch.

Originally, the space at the top of the city wall was not large, but now everyone is crowded together, and the people who were squeezed out for a while, who were hacked to death with knives, wailed, resounded in one piece.

The spear in his hand, in this narrow range, can no longer be used, throwing the gun for the knife, Hu Jinquan began to rush in the crowd, and now he has to keep the winch no matter what, if the winch is lost, then the entire West Gate will not be far from being captured.

Bai Heng saw that the people at the head of the city began to desperately defend the winch, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, in fact, the winch was just the object of his feint, and the real purpose of his team was the city gate.

When fighting just now, among those who were squeezed down, there were people from his team, and these people did not fall outside the city, but fell into the city.

At this time, the few people who fell had already cleaned up the guards at the city gate, and the west gate had been opened.

Now they only need to cut the iron cable on the suspension bridge, Bai Heng's army can attack the city, seeing that the city gate has been opened, those officials and soldiers under the city who have not had time to climb the city wall have rushed in from the city gate like a swarm, Hu Jinquan on the city wall saw that the city gate had been lost, and he didn't care about the officials and soldiers who were pestering him in front of him, so he jumped directly from the city wall and went to clean up the soldiers at the city gate alone.

When the rebels saw that the city gate was lost, they were a little panicked for a while, and now there were officials and soldiers inside and outside the city, and they were now suffering from the enemy on their backs.

These rebel armies have never fought a major battle since they joined Gao Biying's team, let alone a big battle in adversity, so at this time, most of the rebel armies are in chaos and are breaking through in the direction they think is right.

Because the rebel army has just been expanded, the command system is not perfect, most of the time, it is Hu Jinquan or Gao Biying who directly commands ordinary soldiers, and there are almost few middle-level officers in the middle.

Bai Heng, who was supervising the formation outside the city, saw that his people had opened the west gate, and there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart, although he knew that his army had the strength to open the city gate, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

While organizing people to cut the iron cables on the suspension bridge, and ordering people to build ladders to cross the river, he wanted to completely gain a foothold in the west gate before the people at the east gate could react.

Looking at the officers and soldiers who were rushing towards him like a tide, as well as his subordinates who were being chased and had nowhere to hide, Hu Jinquan's eyes were about to erupt with fire.

But in the current situation, even if he can really breathe fire with both eyes, it will not help, now Bai Heng's troops have put down the drawbridge, and the ladders on the moat have been erected a lot, and in less than half an hour, Bai Heng's 50,000 troops attacking Ximen can all enter the city.
