As soon as the well fence appeared, it immediately became the target of the guards of the ironclad fort. 》]

But Duan Ruqi knew that Su You, who was able to put the catapult into the battle to defend the city, was obviously not here to have fun with his city guards by showing the well fence now.

In fact, Duan Ruqi's thoughts had just started, and the drums of the coalition army sounded again, and then he saw that the coalition army camp had erected five more well railings, which were slowly moving forward under the push and protection of five hundred soldiers

Su You was like Santa Claus digging out candy, and he didn't know how many things were in his pocket, as if they were endless, and they were pushed out one by one.

In less than half an hour, under the north gate of the Iron Armor Fort, a wall made of a row of wells was enclosed.

Later, when the well fence was pushed forward, there were no soldiers on it.

From the beginning to the present, the archers and catapults at the head of the castle, as well as the catapults in the fort, have carried out at least ten attacks; While most of these attacks have been ineffective, the number of coalition casualties has already increased in the hundreds.

However, the five soldiers on the well railing who were first pushed out did not suffer any casualties, and not only that, but they also took advantage of the opportunity to use their bows and arrows to fight back at the defenders at the head of the Ironclad Fortress.

Of course, the attack of fifteen men was like mud into the sea in front of tens of thousands of defenders, and it did not stir up any waves.

After all the well rails were in place, Su You waved his hand, and hundreds of soldiers from the coalition army walked out of the ranks, and then climbed up the long ladder behind the well railings, and began to stand on the platform and shoot at the defenders of the ironclad fort.

In the same number, but inferior to the coalition army in terms of state and equipment, the city defenders suddenly felt a lot of pressure; After one round of fighting, the catapults and archers at the head of the castle lost hundreds of men.

Of course, Su You's methods were not only like this, when all the archers on the well fence were in place, under his command, countless chariots covered with carports were revealed, and then they were pushed backwards by thousands of soldiers to approach the city wall.

There are also some larger chariots, which also appear on the battlefield one by one, not to mention the soldiers who defend the city, even if they are well-read and knowledgeable superiors such as Duan Ru and Zhao Guoming, they don't know what they are.

Looking at Fu Guoming, who was smiling with joy but with a look of doubt, Su You said lightly, "This is for rushing and crashing, attacking the city!"

Jian Guoming suddenly came to his senses, and Duan Ruqi also seemed to realize that these behemoths were here to hit the city wall, and hurriedly ordered, "Quickly design against those enemies who push carts, and don't let them get close to the city wall." ”

The leader of the defenders at the head of the city took the order to go, but the bows and arrows shot from the well railing of the coalition army were too powerful to suppress his own side, and at this time, the only thing Duan Ruqi could rely on was the catapult in the city.

The problem is that the catapults inside the city can't see outside the city at all, and the speed of their attacks is a big problem.

After only dodging a round of attacks from the catapults in the fort, the coalition vehicles were already approaching the city walls, and when the rebel catapults attacked again, the stones could only fall behind them.

Seeing the rushing and crashing cars of the coalition forces coming like a tide, Duan Ruqi immediately ordered again incoherently, "Transfer!" Sending men to the city walls! ”

The defenders in the Iron Armor Fort walked towards the city in waves, and then they were suppressed in waves, and after several times, these Duan clan's disciples also knew that the general trend had gone.

The coalition attack continued in an orderly manner, with more wells being pushed out and replaced by those smashed by catapults on the city.

In addition to the five soldiers on the well railing who tested the range of the bow and arrow at the beginning, the non-commissioned soldiers of the coalition forces behind were also poorly equipped, but they had already formed a suppression of those archers on the head of the Iron Fort, so their casualties were not bad.

Even so, the follow-up crossbowmen of the coalition army climbed up and down the ladder of the well railing, and the river flowed endlessly; When the crossbowmen standing on the well fence feel that they are tired and cannot pull the bowstring with their arms, they will slide down the ladders on both sides of the well railing, and then take the stage with a new force.

Another half an hour passed, and the vast majority of the 5,000 archers of the Ironclad Fort had been consumed, and no one dared to stand by the catapults at the head of the Ironclad Fort.

More than half of Duan Ruqi's people were fiddling with catapults in the city, but the stones thrown by these catapults were often in vain; A small number of them were standing at the top of the city, preparing boulders, rolling logs, hot oil, and other equipment to defend the city, but their hearts were also beating back

The siege equipment of the coalition army is endless, and it is really too well prepared!

If it weren't for the fact that Duan Ruqi had already ordered the city gate to be blocked with stones, and it was impossible for the coalition army to break through the gate, maybe they would have fled one after another.

Even so, they had a bad premonition.

- The commander of the coalition forces is full of wisdom, didn't he consider the special situation of the city gate being blocked a long time ago?

Just as some of the defenders had in mind, in a very short time later, the heavy equipment crashed and finally landed on the city wall. Under the impact of hundreds of huge beams at the same time, the earth trembled, and the city bricks slid down in large areas.

Duan Ruqi, who was still standing at the head of the city at this time, was careless, and suddenly stumbled, almost falling off the city.

"Brother, come down quickly!" Duan Ruyu grabbed Duan Ruqi in time, and suggested, "They can only win by surprise by relying on siege equipment, and if they really want to fight in the streets, we are not worthy of him." ”

"You don't have to worry about me, quickly organize the soldiers, and prepare to break the city and resist the enemy!" Duan Ruqi nodded, he said so, but seeing the city shattered, how could he still have half a chance of winning in his heart?

Duan Ruqi staggered down the city, and then walked sadly towards Xiangguo's Mansion under hundreds of guards.

The people of the Iron Castle also seemed to know that it was only different from the past, and no one took to the streets, and at this time, the earth-shattering war drums and the terrible sound of fighting could be heard everywhere in the Iron Castle from the north gate.

When Duan Ruqi walked through the familiar but empty street, he heard the signal of assembly from the east gate and the west gate at the same time.

"The east and west gates are also in danger!" Duan Ruqi sighed secretly, and the old tears immediately slid down.

Duan Ruyu hurriedly walked over from behind at this time and whispered to him, "Brother, the east gate and the west gate have been broken at the same time, I'm afraid we only have one way to go now!" ”

Duan Ruyu's subtext said that he fled from the south gate, because there was still a large piece of land in the south that belonged to the Duan family, and those places were high and densely forested, and the two brothers had discussed this retreat before.

If they retreat to the south, if they can talk about moving the Pubu again, there is no worry that there is no possibility of a comeback.

Duan Ruqi shook his head helplessly, "Seven or eight out of ten of our clansmen are in this ironclad fort, if I abandon them, how can I bear it?" ”

The two brothers couldn't help but think of the sentence "I knew today, why bother in the beginning", and the two faced each other silently, infinitely desolate.

At the same moment, there was a loud bang, and the wall of the north gate of the ironclad fort was finally broken by the crashing wood, and the soldiers defending the city began to scatter and flee

Under the collision and two rounds of attack, the crack in the city wall was already more than ten zhang wide.

Seeing that his side was like a bamboo, he immediately rode to the high-headed horse given to him by Su You in high spirits, and ordered categorically, "Enter the city!" ”

The soldiers on the well fence were no longer of use at this time, so they came down one after another to change into horses, and then rushed into the city, shouting loudly, "The king has an order, those who descend will not be killed!" ”

Obviously, the soldiers who came down from the well railing were still rushing too slowly, and they were just targets to attract the defenders.

In fact, Wang Bodang and Fu Ziheng had already led 5,000 soldiers and horses to break through the city from the east gate and the west gate, and they also shouted while killing, "The king has an order, and those who surrender will not be killed!" ”

To Wang Bodang's surprise, Duan Ruqi actually cooperated with his call 100%.

Duan Ruqi really knelt down at the gate of the inner city and asked to surrender!

"Daxiangguo has surrendered to the king!"

This sentence quickly spread throughout the city, and the soldiers of the Duan clan died down one after another, and the coalition forces gathered prisoners one after another, and there was no reason to fight these unarmed soldiers in front of them.

When Jian Guoming heard the news, he even was in a trance for a moment, and asked Su You beside him in disbelief, "So, is peace really coming?" ”

"Peace is coming, peace is good!" Su You nodded.

"I thought he was going to flee to the south." Jian Guoming muttered, his face was more melancholy than when he entered the city just now.

Obviously, Jian Guoming's feelings for Duan Ruqi are extremely complicated, he has been played with by the latter for a long time, and he has long been eager to drink his blood and pick his skin.

Duan Ruqi surrendered so quickly, obviously not the result he most wanted to see, if he continued to flee to the deep mountains and old forests in the south, wouldn't he be able to hunt him down with a famous teacher?

Despite this, Fu Guoming still said to Fu Guozhao with a blank face at this time, "Then accept it, please ask General Zhenxi to go, and you go and re-establish an alliance with Duan Ruqi." ”

Ji Guozhao nodded, bowed down and asked, "The alliance under the city?" ”

Jian Guoming shook his head and said viciously, "No. It's the 'Alliance'. ”

"Joining the alliance" is entering the city to force the other party to form an alliance, which is a more unequal and insulting way of forming an alliance than the "alliance under the city"; In terms of future generations, this "alliance of accession" is the "surrender ceremony" of the vanquished.

At this time, Jian Guoming asked Jian Guozhao and Duan Ruqi to sign an "alliance of entry", which is well deserved, and of course Jian Guozhao is willing to do this beautiful errand.

Duan Ruqi usually doesn't pull out a dime, but now he can finally blatantly squeeze him!
