Liao Yun is very busy now, quickly directing his soldiers to prepare for the defense of the city, this is his first task after returning, and he must do it well.

At the same time, in the military camp of Malan in the outer city, Malan was convening the generals to discuss the matter.

Pei Qing smiled and said: "General, you are really resourceful, you have broken through the Western Capital so easily, if Your Majesty knows, you will definitely be happy." ”

Ma Lan was not arrogant, and said: "This is everyone's credit, after returning to Beijing, I will be enlightened to the saint, and everyone will have merit at that time." ”

All the lieutenant generals were overjoyed, got up and said, "Thank you, General." ”

After shuddering for a while, Ma Lan said: "Now is not the time for us to be happy, there is still one last barrier in the Western Capital, we must take advantage of the victory to pursue and break the enemy in one fell swoop before he is fully ready." ”

Pei Qing said: "General rest assured, in two hours, our siege equipment will arrive, and the west will be broken at the snap of a finger." ”

Everyone nodded, judging from the walls of the inner city, it was indeed not to be feared, it was only more than three feet high, and it was much easier to attack than the outer city.

Tie Sha said: "General, do we want to completely occupy the Sifang City Gate first, so that we can trap all the thief troops in the city, and annihilate them in one fell swoop." ”

Ma Lan shook his head and said with a smile: "General Tie, can't you see it, this Wang Xu's sudden retreat is sinister, if our troops are divided into various places, it will fall into his trap and give him every opportunity to break through, so the general has decided to attack the north gate regardless of anything else, and my hundreds of thousands of troops are here, let him do all kinds of tricks, and I can't help it!" ”

Everyone suddenly realized that they finally understood why Wang Xu had withdrawn from the army. It turned out to be retreating as advancing.

..............

It's past noon.

Ma Lan's army came to the inner city in a mighty way, and this time he brought all his troops and made adequate preparations, because he firmly believed. With the wall in front of you, it will definitely be unstoppable, and you may be able to break it in one go.

Seeing that the enemy army was coming, Liao Yun urged the soldiers to prepare to defend the city, but at this time. Wang Xu and Goudan walked up to the city wall, followed by a hundred baby soldiers.

Liao Yun stepped forward and saluted: "Lord, don't worry, the last general will definitely defend the city wall." ”

Wang Xu patted Liao Yun's shoulder and smiled, "Do you really have the confidence to defend this city wall?" I don't think you can hold it at all! ”

Liao Yun didn't know why Wang Xu said this, but Liao Yun said: "Lord, I will do my best in the end." ”

Goudan interjected: "General Liao, my eldest brother said that you can't hold it, you just can't hold it; It's up to us Boy Scouts, a hundred people can defeat the 100,000 troops under the city. ”

Liao Yun was stunned. Then he laughed dumbly, can a group of teenage child soldiers retreat from the enemy? Are you kidding.

Knock knock... The drums of war sounded under the city.

Liao Yun didn't have time to talk to Wang Xu and the others, turned around and commanded the soldiers to meet the enemy, facing the four siege towers approaching, Liao Yun frowned, the siege towers were too high, higher than the city walls.

All kinds of ladders, door-smashing cars, flying bridges, and catapults swarmed in, and Liao Yun's brows furrowed even tighter, but he didn't panic, and stood in the middle and commanded heavily.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

Several huge stones flew up the walls. One piece also landed on Wang Xu's side, which startled Liao Yun, and hurriedly said, "Lord, it's dangerous here." Go to the city and rest first. ”

Wang Xu looked resolute, waved his hand and said: "You can defend the city with peace of mind, don't worry about me, this king wants to watch the enemy army retreat!" ”

"Bang Bang Bang Bang ..."The ladder was erected by the city wall at this time.

"Shoot the arrows!" Liao Yun led hundreds of archers to shoot under the city, and he was very anxious because Wang Xu was in the city. Don't have an accident.

The arrows fell under the city, and the effect was very small, because the protective measures of the officers and soldiers were very good, and the shield soldiers were in groups, covering the siege troops very well.

Under the city, 3,000 archers were transferred to the front line by Malan to cover all the siege troops, the walls of the inner city are only more than three zhang high, and the archers can play a role, compared to the outer city, the officers and soldiers are more handy here.

The corners of Ma Lan's mouth were slightly upturned, he seemed to have seen the moment of breaking the city, and now all the siege equipment of the door car, siege tower, and cloud ladder have been used, and the city is about to be broken.

"Give me an order, let the soldiers prepare to charge, once the city gate is wide open, they will all rush in for me and capture Wang Xu alive!"

Pei Qing laughed: "General, don't worry, the last general has already been prepared." ”

Tie Sha looked at the city wall in the distance and said with a smile: "General, please look, Wang Xu actually called those newly weaned dolls to guard the city, it seems that there is really no one in the western capital." ”

Ma Lan's eyes shrank, staring at those baby soldiers, suddenly, he saw something, each child soldier held a clay pot in his hand, the clay pot was dark all around, wrapped in cotton cloth, very weird.

"What are they taking? Secret weapon? ”

Pei Qing said with a smile: "What do you care about him, the city is about to be broken, even if Wang Xu has a thousand strategies, he has no power to return to the sky." ”

Ma Lan thinks too, the situation is very good now, if nothing happens, in less than half an hour, the Western Capital will be broken!

Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!

"Boom! Boom Boom! ...”

.............

The sound of explosions continued to sound on the battlefield, and the smoke rose from the inner city, and Ma Lan could feel the ground trembling slightly from such a distance.

"What's going on? What is that? Malan yelled as hard as he could.

Thundered... The explosions continued, and the battlefield was full of black smoke, and it was impossible to see the battle at all.

After a while, the explosion stopped, and the battlefield was chaotic, and countless siege soldiers retreated at this time, they had never seen such a terrible weapon to defend the city, what the hell, this was defending the city, it was simply a devastating attack.

"What's going on? Our soldiers have all returned! Tiesha said in horror. This kind of thing has never happened before.

Gradually, the black smoke dissipated, Ma Lan raised his eyes, and suddenly, he almost planted his horse, only to see that under the city wall in the distance, all the siege equipment was destroyed, five siege towers were lazy and broken, more than a dozen ladders were shattered, and even the door car was blown up several feet away, broken into several sections.

What's going on?

Pei Qing still couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva: "Will... General, is this the kind of secret weapon you are talking about? It's tough. ”

Ma Lan was irritable for a while, all the siege equipment was destroyed, and there was not even a simple ladder, how to attack the city next?

There were still some remnants of soldiers wandering under the city, and Ma Lan directly ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

All the siege soldiers withdrew from the battlefield, and Ma Lan took a deep breath: "It seems that Wang Xu has been prepared for a long time, he has such a powerful weapon to defend the city, we want to conquer the Western Capital, it is a little difficult." (To be continued.) )
