Under the city.

Min Ling arrived with 5,000 recruits, and the 5,000 people were roughly divided into four directions to attack, one was the cloud ladder, and the other three places were the three siege towers, and Min Ling personally led more than 1,000 people to climb the middle tower.

"Give it all to me."

"No."

Five thousand people, of which five hundred were archers, because there was no shield cover, so these five hundred people were left under the city, squatting behind the siege tower to shoot, these five hundred archers were completely exposed to the enemy's falling stone attack, although there was a siege tower that could cover for a while, but it should not last long, and could only cover the soldiers climbing the ladder for a short time.

After half an hour of hard work, Min Ling led people to kill the city wall from the siege tower in the middle, and there were dozens of soldiers who climbed the city wall with him, to be precise, the position of the second siege tower at this time was already in the hands of Min Ling, and more than 100 Lu Yang's archers were responsible for covering, and a steady stream of soldiers went up from this.

"Kill."

Min Ling roared and rushed into the enemy army next to him.

Now there is a serious lack of troops in the city, there are less than two thousand left, and it is really a little difficult to defend the wall of a thousand meters, Qian Ling stays in the hidden soldier cave, he does not dare to show his head, he has to wait for the appearance of reinforcements.

Under the city, Wang Xu's eyes widened, although Min Ling attacked the city, but the loss was really not small, from the overall point of view, the five thousand recruits were not as good as Lu Yang's more than a thousand remnants, whether it was the speed of climbing the ladder, or the sharpness of dodging falling rocks, it was much worse.

Especially the mutual cooperation between the soldiers, Lu Yang's soldiers did a good job, but on the other hand, his 5,000 recruits fought for themselves, and they didn't know what unity was at all.

Now that the territory of about 100 meters in the middle of the city wall is under the control of Min Ling, Wang Xu looked at Lu Yang and said, "Brother Lu, it seems that it is possible to capture the royal city today." ”

Lu Yang shook his head: "How can it be so easy, as I expected, the enemy's reinforcements should arrive immediately, after all, it will fall short; Taking a step back, even if the outer city is breached by us, they still have the inner city to defend, and we will not be able to break through the royal city in a short time. ”

As soon as Lu Yang's voice fell, he saw a large number of enemy soldiers on the city wall, and because the distance was too far, he couldn't see the specific number of people.

"Brother Lu is really like a god, the enemy's reinforcements have really arrived."

Lu Yang said: "General Wang, our department has suffered nearly 10,000 casualties, and I am going to withdraw my troops." ”

Wang Xu looked at the battlefield in front of him, Lu Yang's elite soldiers were indeed almost dead, and most of the soldiers who were still standing were newly rushed up, and it was estimated that only hundreds of archers were alive in the siege tower.

Wang Xu glanced at Lu Yang, and then said indifferently, "Brother Lu is casual." ”

Hearing Wang Xu say this, he glanced at Wang Xu gratefully, Lu Yang was afraid that Wang Xu would not agree, because what he said was good was 10,000 soldiers, and now he has not died to 10,000, Wang Xu can insist on fighting again.

"Thank you very much." Lu Yang arched his hand.

He called the golden hand and gave the order to withdraw without hesitation

Since Min Ling and others attacked the city wall, the trebuchets under the city have lost their effectiveness, and the three trebuchets have stopped to prevent accidental injury.

When the reinforcements arrived, the pressure on Min Ling suddenly increased, and the territory of more than 200 meters that it originally occupied was rapidly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the end there were only less than three zhang left. Min Ling gathered dozens of spearmen around him and tried his best to fight back, but the effect was not very obvious.

"Whew"

Suddenly, there was a whistling sound in the sky, followed by three black dots.

What is this? The soldiers around Minling looked around and were puzzled.

The three black dots suddenly magnified and fell faster and faster, and only then did everyone see clearly what it was, it was three huge stones! Everyone couldn't help but be frightened, and they all wanted to dodge, but it was too late!

"Smack!" A boulder slammed down with a thunderous force, and in an instant, the boulder hit the heads of the three soldiers, and suddenly, the brains jumped and blood splattered, and the red and white things stained the surrounding soldiers, and they all turned pale with fright!

The boulder was so big that several soldiers around it were seriously injured, and Min Ling was still a foot away from the boulder and dodged the blow.

A total of three boulders flew in, and there were two more in the rest, and at the same time, two boulders fell on the siege tower outside the city wall, making a loud noise, the equipment shook, and two holes appeared in the siege tower at this moment, and the siege tower was damaged!

Qian Ling's confidence increased greatly, and he strode out of the Tibetan Soldier Cave: "Kill me, kill them all!" ”

"Huhuhuhu"

Zhou Yi's trebuchet in the city attacked again, and the target was still Minling's location.

"Brothers, raise your shields quickly." Min Ling shouted in fear.

The soldiers were quick and raised their shields to cover them.

"Box! Frame! Frame! ”

The powerful impact of the boulder smashed down and fell on the shield, and the soldiers only felt that their arms were suddenly broken, and the pain was terrible, and more than a dozen people under the stone took advantage of the greatest strength, and then, several people sprayed blood, their eyes turned white, and they died on the spot!

The stone-throwing attack in the city caused huge losses to Min Ling and others, and in a short period of time, dozens of people were killed and wounded, and the remaining people were less than ten.

The stone-throwing attack stopped, but hundreds of elite soldiers on the city wall rushed over, and these people, under the leadership of Qian Ling, raised the spears in their hands, all of them had fierce eyes, and roared loudly.

"Woo woo"

The golden signal sounded, and the order to withdraw troops came from the city.

"Withdraw!"

Min Ling was overjoyed, forced back the enemy in front of him with one move, and then quickly flashed into the siege tower and walked downstream.

All the soldiers were relieved, as if they heard the sound of heaven, they turned around and fled, and everyone wanted to withdraw for a long time, but there was no explicit order, and it was difficult to retreat.

"Archers, shoot me, don't let the enemy escape." Qian Ling shouted.

Whoosh

Several rounds of arrow rain, the Minling side suffered heavy losses!

Retreat and escape are different, the soldiers brought by Min Ling are all new soldiers, and they are weak brigades, without the slightest discipline at all.

When he withdrew to the city, there were less than five hundred of the five thousand soldiers left, and after looking at the enemy troops on the city wall, Min Ling turned around and ran quickly behind the defeated soldiers retreating from Lu Yang.

The siege tower and other equipment were far away, and the enemy retreated on all fronts, Qian Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief, put his hands on the side of the city wall, and muttered to himself: "Fortunately, the prince moved the trebuchet out, it was really timely rain." ”

Looking at the remaining soldiers in the city, there are less than 1,000, of course, the 3,000 elite soldiers who just came to support do not count, that is to say, the battle was almost completely annihilated, 7,000 people were killed and only 1,000 were left, and 6,000 people were lost!

Lu Yang looked at the retreating defeated soldiers and said, "General Wang, the next thing will be handed over to you, I will wait for your good news." ”

Wang Xu arched his hand: "Brother Lu, please rest assured, the royal city will be broken soon!" You just wait to be the king of Guxi. ”

The corners of Lu Yang's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled: "Okay, see you later!" After Lu Yang finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and headed towards the camp, and tens of thousands of troops also withdrew.

Min Ling retreated in embarrassment, his body was stained red with blood, and there were many knife wounds on his body, especially on his left arm, which was also pierced by arrow feathers, and the blood was left along the tip of the arrow, and the tragic situation can be seen!

"My lord, I failed to capture the royal city."

"It's okay, I didn't have hope." Seeing that Min Ling's body was drenched in blood, Wang Xu was concerned: "Are you okay?" ”

Min Ling said: "Thank you for your concern, my subordinates are fine, a little injury, it's not in the way." ”

"Then collect the troops." Wang Xu said. After saying that, turn around and retreat.
