Chapter 163: A Cloud Ladder Falling from the Sky

After three days and three nights, the Goguryeo people and the rest of the people finally crossed the river.

Bogu, who did not cross the river, was full of gloom and anger, because in the past few days, Zhao Yun led Bai Ma Yi to constantly harass, began to bully the enemy soldiers to use heavy armor to directly impact, and later used light cavalry and strong crossbows to harass, and in three days, he actually attacked and killed three or four thousand Goguryeo troops, how could he not make him thunderous, eager to cramp and skin Gongsun Bai.

Therefore, the first thing after crossing the river, Pegu immediately ordered all the soldiers to cut down wood and make siege ladders. The Goguryeo people were technologically backward and could not make any exquisite siege equipment, nor could they build cloud ladders, but could only make simple wooden ladders.

It's just that what Bogu doesn't know is that for a big city like Xiangping, it was the capital of Dayan in the last five years of the Warring States Period, and it has been heightened and thickened by Gongsun Du in recent years, and it is a joke to attack the city with a few wooden ladders.

The horses' hooves were like thunder, the dust was flying, and tens of thousands of Goguryeo people and Fuyu went straight to the north gate of Xiangping City with great momentum.

Soon, Xiangping City had come into view, and Bogu looked at the sparse Han army at the head of the city, and couldn't help but smile with disdain, and his confidence in his heart was even firmer.

With the sound of horses roaring one after another, the 90,000 Goguryeo cavalry slowly stopped.

Bo Gu slowly raised his head, looked towards the head of the city, and couldn't help but be angry, it turned out that among the guards standing at the head of the city was Zhao Yun, a Han general who had attacked his army to cross the river several times.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned a tall Goguryeo man and ordered him to be his envoy to the city to order the Han army in the city to surrender.

The messenger cautiously raised his head, and suddenly saw that in the middle of the city tower was a young man who laughed harmlessly and heartlessly, and his heart was a little calm, and he began to brag about it, to the effect that the Goguryeo people were brave, and the number of soldiers and horses was several times that of the Xiangping defenders, and he demanded to open the door and surrender, otherwise the city would be ruined and people would die.

Niu Bi just blew a few words, but Gongsun Bai on the city tower still stood still, seemingly turning a deaf ear. From time to time, he pinched his nose.

The messenger breathed a sigh of relief, and his courage grew fatter, and the more he spoke, the more unbearable he became, when he said that Gongsun Bai would open the door and bow down. When he offered his wife and concubine to the king of Goguryeo, the Goguryeo people behind him burst into laughter and applauded.

Woohoo!

A sound broke through the air.

The messenger suddenly felt a fierce wind in front of him, and then there was a sharp pain in his chest, and several sharp arrows pierced his leather robe. Through the chest.

The messenger looked at the fluttering arrows in his chest in astonishment, and looked up at the tower in disbelief, and he could not understand that he was still hit by an arrow when he was standing a hundred paces away from the tower, so he fell from his horse like a log with a thud.

Ho ho ho ho!

The laughter and cheers above the castle tower rang out loud and resounded in the sky.

However, the Goguryeo people who were originally boiling under the city suddenly fell silent, looking at the city in surprise, and their hearts and galls were cold.

Bogu's face changed greatly, and after taking a deep breath, he raised his sword and shouted: "Kill!" Kill all these arrogant Han people! ”

Suddenly, a long and low trumpet sounded from below the city.

With the earth-shattering shouts of killing. Tens of thousands of Goguryeo people rushed towards Xiangping City like a tide.

Between them, there were hundreds of siege ladders, intending to climb the tower and kill the Han people in one fell swoop.

The second prince of Goguryeo, Imo Neng, took the lead and personally carried the wooden ladder and went straight to the city tower.

Gongsun Bai, who was in the middle of the city, looked at Guo Jia with a smile and said: "Is this a person attacking the city, or is it a group of pigs attacking the city, hahaha......"

The soldiers around laughed.

Woohoo!

Crossbow arrows rained down on the towers. The Goguryeo people under the city fell in pieces, screaming for a long time, but no one retreated.

Before the siege, the tribal leaders had already given orders. The women in Xiangping City are white and tender, all tender can squeeze out water, Xiangping City has gathered most of the wealth of Liaodong, gold and silver treasures are inexhaustible.

To capture Xiangping is to conquer heaven!

Under that fatal temptation. The Goguryeo people were like madness, and they all rushed forward without fear of death.

Syllable!

The second prince of Goguryeo, Imo Neng, was the first to put a wooden ladder on the city wall.

Bang Bang Bang!

Hundreds of wooden ladders were built one after another on top of the tower.

The next moment, the Goguryeo people were dumbfounded, this wooden ladder was still more than a foot away from the city tower on the city wall, how to attack the city? What's even more ridiculous is that some of the 25-year-old Goguryeo people are still screaming and screaming desperately to climb up the wooden ladder.

Hahaha!

The Han army on the tower couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Yimo Neng's face swelled like a pig's liver, and he suddenly felt that he was as stupid as a pig, and the city wall was five feet long, and he didn't even think about it, so he carried a wooden ladder that was no more than three feet long and rushed forward stupidly.

The Pegu behind him finally discovered the embarrassment of the Goguryeo people, and hurriedly ordered the trumpet to retire.

Woo woo woo~

Tens of thousands of Goguryeo retreated in disarray, leaving corpses and blood stains everywhere.

In this charge, the Goguryeo people left more than 2,000 corpses in vain, and they did not even touch a single hair of the Han army.

Oooooooo

At the head of Xiangping City, the Han army laughed like thunder, mercilessly mocking the retreating Goguryeo.

Gongsun Bai looked at the defeated Goguryeo people, and a trace of worry suddenly flashed in his eyes: "If you hold a big grass, will the people of Country X say that Lao Tzu was beaten by the Goguryeo people in the future?" ”

One mile away from Xiangping City, Bo Gu was furious, brandished his long sword and shouted at Yi Mo Neng: "Bring 5,000 people to cut wood for Lao Tzu, and be sure to build two hundred siege ladders five zhang high before dawn tomorrow!" Tomorrow the city will be besieged on all sides, and the four gates will be attacked together, and if Xiangping is not broken, Lao Tzu will not be a man! ”

Imo was able to do what he promised.

However, after more than an hour, Imo Neng returned empty-handed.

Within a radius of ten miles, there was no place to cut down trees, and the nearby trees were all cut down by the Han Chinese.

When Bogu heard the news, he first opened his eyes angrily, gritted his teeth, and then thought for a while, and then looked up to the sky and laughed.

Gao Xiu looked at Bogu in confusion and asked, "Why is the king laughing?" ”

Bogu laughed and said: "I laughed at that Gongsun Bai, thinking that if the trees around him were cut down, the king would not attack Xiangping City." No, no, according to this, this king can know that Gongsun Bai is only strong on the outside, but he is actually afraid of my Goguryeo soldiers, otherwise why do you need to do this extra and cut down trees, doesn't it mean that he is really afraid. It seems that the so-called god who broke Xianbei, destroyed Wuhuan, and defeated Gongsun Du will be Gongsun Bai. That's it, haha......"

Bogu laughed for a while, and then Sen Ran ordered: "There is no wood in ten miles, is there no wood in twenty miles?" You give Lao Tzu 20,000 soldiers and horses. He went ten miles away to cut down wood, and then pulled it back to the camp, and before dawn the day after tomorrow, he built three hundred wooden ladders. Twenty miles away, for the Goguryeo people. What's it? ”

************************

The next day, just after dawn, Bogu had not yet woken up when he was woken up by the eldest prince Baqi rushing in.

"Father, father......" Becky burst in breathlessly, shouting urgently.

Bogu jumped up and asked in a shocked voice: "What's the alarm, could it be that the enemy army is coming out of the city?" ”

Baqi ran out of breath and said: "Cloud ladder, cloud ladder ......"

Bogu's face was full of doubt, and he asked, "Cloud ladder?" My father had also heard that the ladder was a siege weapon. But no one in the clan would make such a thing, right? ”

Baqi finally calmed down, and said urgently: "The child's tribe, hundreds of ladders and more than a dozen wells were found outside the camp......

What the?

Bogu was so startled that he almost jumped up, his body shook a little, and he was messy in an instant.

Someone actually sent him a ladder and a well, can he have this thing to attack the city, and he is afraid that Xiangping City will not be broken? But how could these siege artifacts fall from the sky?

He looked at Baqi suspiciously, and asked, "These days have been crossing the river and besieging the city, is my son overworked?" Dazzled? Is there a ladder outside this great camp? ”

Baqi said urgently: "The child has seen it very clearly, it is indeed a ladder and a well, and they are all brand new, without the slightest damage. It was very strong, and my father went out of the camp to check it. ”

Bogu's face changed slightly: "Let's go, take my father to see." ”

When Bergu ran outside the camp, he was completely stunned.

The ladders were neatly arranged in front of him like monsters, and the wood seemed to be freshly cut and steamed. There were hundreds of them, like a monster army.

He walked forward with a puzzled face, flew up and kicked towards the ladder, this kick was more than a hundred catties, but the ladder did not move at all, and it was really very strong.

When he raised his head again, he couldn't help but gasp again, only to see a series of wells towering into the sky like towers, not to mention the surrounding Goguryeo people, even he saw it for the first time.

He turned around slowly and asked, "When did you find this?" ”

Baqi said: "At the fourth watch in the morning, the patrol soldiers found it by the same time, but did not find any signs, these ladders and wells seemed to fall from the sky, silently. ”

Bogu took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and suddenly laughed: "God help me, God help me, God help me!" ”

He said three words in a row, and then shouted loudly: "What are you waiting for, this is the heavens that want me to break through the east gate today." Blow the trumpet, concentrate your forces, and attack the east gate with all your might! ”

**************

On the city of Xiangping, the soldiers are like clouds, ready to fight, and the dense crossbow arrows have been set up at the mouth of the battlement, aiming at the city, ready to shoot at any time.

On the top of the city tower, Gongsun Bai, surrounded by several Han army generals, looked at the Goguryeo people who were swarming under the city, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.

In his impression, the aliens seemed to be scimitar fast horses, brave as tigers, and riding and shooting like flying, so that the Han people, who were short of horses and could not ejaculate on horseback, had no power to fight back.

However, the group of aliens in front of them came violently on horses, but they had to turn over and dismount before the battle, and became infantry, and the weapons in their hands were even more varied, including bronze swords, halberds, long knives, spears, and even some Goguryeo people held only two-foot-long flesh-cutting short knives or wooden sticks in their hands, and there was no formation, basically a swarm of bees.

Although it is said that the aliens have been eating meat and drinking milk wine for a long time, and their physique is stronger than that of the Central Plains people who grew up eating grain, their equipment and combat quality are significantly lower than those of the elite soldiers of the Central Plains.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

In the wave after wave of shouts of killing, countless Goguryeo people pulled the well and pushed the ladder, surging in.

This time, they're determined to win! (To be continued.) )
