Chapter 234: The Mo family defends the city

The sound of earth-shattering footsteps was heard, followed by a tidal wave of soldiers. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Shen Chuan stood on top of the chariot, looking at Xindu in the night, the corners of his mouth were smiling.

Hao Zhi bowed to Shen Chuan: "I will capture Xindu as soon as possible, and I will be able to go to rescue those soldiers who have fallen into ambush." Therefore, the last general suggested that it would be better to attack the city directly."

"There are only 3,000 defenders, and this time we will definitely go down and give the order to attack the whole army." Shen Chuan thought about the 20,000 soldiers who had fallen into the ambush and the letter in front of him, and immediately ordered them.

Hao Zhi led a group of generals to bow and salute: "Obey."

The drums resounded in the sky, and a phalanx of thousands of people rushed to the walls of Xindu under the night.

Looking at the dense enemy troops on the city wall, Qingque's scalp instinctively tingled, Mo Xian was unmoved, obviously he had long been used to seeing such a scene.

The eyes of the enemy soldiers are getting closer and closer, and Qingque's gaze subconsciously looks at the generals of the pro-guard army around him, and finally falls on Mo Xian's body.

"Please give the order to throw stones after ten breaths, order the arrows to be released after fifteen breaths, and take care to let the soldiers hold the city gate after twenty breaths. After thirty breaths, keep an eye on the ladder so that it can be destroyed in time". Mo Xian gave a series of hints to Qingque.

Qingque's eyes looked at several generals of the pro-guard army: "Everything is done according to Mo Xian's wishes."

"No". Several generals of the pro-guard army did not refute it, and now that the enemy army has approached the city, they should only obey the orders of the main general.

Huge boulders were lifted onto the trebuchet, and then thrown out of the city by the trebuchet.

The group of blue wolf guards who swarmed under the city only felt that they were safe in front of them, and they lost their lives by falling from the sky before they had time to dodge the boulder.

The boulder is like raindrops, but in the face of the attack of 20,000 blue wolf guards, it seems a little insufficient. Gradually, the distance to Xindu became closer and closer, and the soldiers of the pro-guard army on the city wall couldn't help but hold the weapons in their hands a little tighter.

The stones were running out, and then there was a loud roar, and countless arrows were shot from the walls.

Many of the blue wolf guards under the city wall managed to avoid the boulder, but they were attacked by a rain of arrows and hurriedly dodged one by one.

It's a pity that the scale of the arrow rain is huge, and another group of people fell in a pool of blood.

Shen Chuan couldn't help frowning when he looked at the battle situation in front of him, and immediately ordered the generals: "Ignore the rain of arrows and immediately break open the city gate."

"Yes". A general bowed down to receive the order, then turned around and walked towards the army behind him, and after a while, dozens of soldiers pushed the car and slammed into the direction of the city gate.

The guards in the city had already prepared, and they resisted the city gate one by one. The giant tree in the car slammed into the city gate, and the city gate made a loud noise.

The expected scene of being knocked open did not appear, and the blue wolf guard pushing the siege vehicle had no choice but to retreat and try to hit the city gate again.

At this time, a dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, and dozens of blue wolf guards pushing siege vehicles fell in a pool of blood.

Shen Chuan, who was in the rear, looked at the generals around him with a fire in his heart: "There are only three thousand defenders, why is it so difficult to attack."

"Sir, why don't you use a ladder? At this time, most of the defenders of Sindu were resisting at the city gates, and the walls must be empty." One of the generals immediately proposed to Shen Chuan.

Shen Chuan nodded slightly, this is indeed a good proposal: "Use the cloud ladder."

"Yes". Another general bowed down to receive the order, and then waved at the army behind him.

Several ladders were pushed out and pushed directly in the direction of the city wall, in an attempt to climb the city wall.

Seeing that the ladder was coming, there was nothing they could do, so they could only watch the ladder on the city wall, and then countless wolf guards climbed up the ladder.

Seeing that there was no ripple in his heart at this scene, Mo Xian suggested to Qingque: "Please give the order to put in the rolling wood, and open the east and west gates after a hundred breaths, and send 1,000 troops each."

"Send troops?". Qingque couldn't help but be surprised, he had never fought before, but he also knew that the situation at this time was very unfavorable to Xindu, and it was not a waste of troops to send troops at this time.

Mo Xian explained to Qingque: "At this time, the night battle, coupled with the enemy army's rush, must be exhausted. Moreover, at this time, we have calmly broken through the enemy's many siege methods, and they will definitely have doubts in their hearts, so I expected that after a hundred breaths, we might be able to withdraw from the enemy."

"The order was given to go down and throw the rolling logs, and after a hundred breaths, two thousand troops were sent from the east and west gates." Qingque thought for a moment and commanded the guards.

"No". The guards bowed, and then scattered to convey the military order.

On the city wall, the children of the Mo family and the guards worked together to pick up the rolling logs one by one and threw them down against the ladder.

The rolling log slid down the ladder, and a blue wolf guard named who was climbing on the ladder was suddenly smashed unconscious.

Seeing that the means of siege were all restrained, Shen Chuan couldn't help muttering, looking around but couldn't find an answer.

Hao Zhi hurriedly walked over and saluted Shen Chuan: "It's not a way for Mr. to go on like this."

"Is there far more than three thousand troops in this capital of faith? If not, why is there such a constrained situation?" Shen Chuan asked Hao Zhi and the generals around him.

Hao Zhi replied to Shen Chuan without thinking: "Sir, we are all tired soldiers, it seems that our hearts are still too anxious for this night attack."

"If I retreat like this, I'm really unwilling, and I'll give the order." Shen Chuan was unwilling to command the generals beside him.

A soldier rode a war horse and came galloping quickly, interrupting Shen Chuan's military order: "The defenders of Xindu have sent troops from the east and west gates, and they are now killing here."

"Sir, since Xindu dares to send troops at this time, it shows that the defenders of Xindu are far more than 3,000, and since our army is victorious, why rush for a while." Hao Zhi spoke to Shen Chuan.

Shen Chuan looked at Hao Zhi unwillingly: "Do you know that the Qin State and the Zhongshan Kingdom are eyeing each other, once the Gong clan gathers troops, then Zhao Yu's troops will be equal to the king." When the time comes, when the two countries send troops, will you not become sinners for the ages?"

"The army of the Gong clan can't be gathered in a few days or two, and how long can Xindu last? Moreover, Zhao Wuming's troops are fighting with our army twenty miles away, and at this time, the Hui army may be able to win a complete victory in the front and back, and this letter will naturally fall into the hands of the king at that time." Hao Zhi explained to Shen Chuan that it was unwise for the soldiers to be tired and attack the city in this night.

Shen Chuan's eyes flickered, obviously struggling deep in his heart: "If you retreat at this time, I am afraid that you will fall short and lose your troops."

"But it's much better than storming the city at night with a weary army." Hao Zhi persuaded Shen Chuan.

Shen Chuan waved his hand heavily, and immediately ordered the generals around him: "Pass the order, Mingjin will withdraw the troops."

"Yes". The generals breathed a sigh of relief, and then the sound of Mingjin spread, and the 20,000 blue wolf guards retreated like a tide.

Shen Chuan glanced back unwillingly, but then he could only leave a sigh. Attacking the city with a weary army he could not afford.
