Chapter 60: The Siege (Part II)
There were more and more rebel soldiers on the city wall, and they took Xiong Kuohai's place and took on the task of guarding the soldiers behind, while Xiong Kuohai and other soldiers launched a counterattack against the Sui army. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The soldiers of the Sui army are equipped with a large number of spears and shields, and the general siege soldiers are difficult to carry long weapons in their hands when they climb the siege ladder or cloud ladder, at most they are just some horizontal knives and shields, and the so-called one inch is strong and one inch long, the spear array of the Sui army is trained, and the soldiers' movements are uniform when they raise their guns, and they stab forward together, under such an attack, the opponent's shield cannot resist at all, and their short weapons are difficult to cause damage to the Sui army, plus the shield of the Sui army is a long shield, There were also gaps on it that could hold guns, making it difficult for ordinary soldiers who climbed the city wall to break through the Sui army's defenses.
It's just that today, what they met was not an ordinary soldier, but Xiong Kuohai, who ranked fourth in the world, and the two soldiers handed him two heavy battle axes, both of which were giant axes weighing more than fifty catties, with a wide blade and a thick back, which looked extraordinarily weighty.
Xiong Kuohai's weapon was a cooked copper stick weighing more than 200 catties, but this thing was too bulky for him to carry, so he didn't bring it, and the soldiers couldn't hold such a heavy guy, so they brought him two battle axes.
After the Sui army panicked for a while, they immediately formed a formation to resist the enemy, they formed two spear formations, and pressed over from both sides in the direction of the anti-army, the short weapons of the anti-army seemed helpless in the face of their spears, and the small round shields in their hands resisted the bows and arrows were not bad, if they were used to resist the spear spurs, it would definitely not work.
"Get out of the way!"
Xiong Kuohai roared, brandishing two battle axes and rushed towards the Sui army, he was tall, muscular, and wearing a set of chain mail, looking like a moving iron tower, this roar was surprisingly loud, and the surrounding soldiers were all in pain.
The soldiers of the Sui army saw him rushing over, and stabbed out the spears together, Xiong Kuohai slashed left and right, and cut off several spears at once, he castrated and slammed into the shield wall of the Sui army, there were fifteen soldiers in a row of soldiers of the Sui army, at this time the shields were embedded with each other, and the fifteen shields connected the city as a whole, and the impact of one place was equivalent to the impact of fifteen shields, such a design was designed to prevent the impact of the enemy, because although the power of the pikemen was great, but this kind of soldier was relatively bulky, once the enemy was hand-to-hand combat, Their combat effectiveness immediately dropped by more than half, not to mention the spears on the city walls, even on the flat ground are difficult to turn, and the siege troops are equipped with short knives, which are the most advantageous in this kind of hand-to-hand combat.
The Sui army never thought that the fifteen people on his side could not withstand the impact of one of the other party, Xiong Kuohai's collision was like a strong bull, directly flying more than a dozen soldiers on the other side, and the shield wall composed of fifteen shields suddenly came to the ground with the soldiers behind them, and the defense of the Sui army was torn apart!
"Military Division, General Xiong has torn through the enemy's defenses, look, look, there are more and more of our people in the city!"
Du Fuwei was very happy to see Xiong Kuohai successfully break through the defense of the Sui army.
Fu Gong Yi stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Xiong Kuohai is really a fierce general, who can get such a fierce general, why worry about the injustice of the world?" ”
Du Fuwei smiled awkwardly and said, "Strategist, it turns out that you have already seen through my mind?" ”
Fu Gongqi nodded and said, "Didn't the look you look at me in the tent last night hint at me? How could I not see it? ”
Du Fuwei saw that he understood his thoughts, so he didn't hide it, and said to him: "Strategist, do you think there is any way to dig Xiong Kuohai under our tent?" ”
Fu Gongyi pretended to be profound, glanced at Gao Tansheng not far away, and smiled without saying a word.
Du Fuwei understood what he meant, so he made a throat-slitting motion on his neck with his hand, and Fu Gongqi nodded, understanding what he meant.
Just when the rebels made a breakthrough on the city wall, the trebuchet battle between the two sides was also divided, although under the blow of the Sui army's trebuchet, several of the rebels' trebuchets were destroyed, but the stones they fired towards the northern city wall had successfully collapsed here!
A large section of the city wall collapsed violently, forming a gap about five or six zhang long!
When the rebel soldiers saw their trebuchets blasting the enemy's walls open, they were immediately thunderous with joy and morale, and the soldiers, led by the rebel generals, ran frantically towards this protruding gap, ignoring the dust raised in the sky.
The Sui army, who had been waiting in the city for a long time, made almost the same move, and both sides rushed towards the place, trying to fight for control of the place.
Although this section of the wall was blasted open, it did not collapse completely, and the collapsed stone bricks also raised the height of this gap a lot, so this gap is a gentle slope for both sides, so it is very important to control this place.
The two sides arrived at the gap almost at the same time, and the thick smoke and dust did not dissipate, and in the thick smoke, no one could see the situation on the other side, but although they could not see it, they could hear the sound of the approaching army with their ears.
The soldiers on both sides collided like a tidal wave, they fought and struggled in a small space, and in this crowded place, once they fell, even if they were not injured or killed, they would be immediately trampled into flesh by countless soldiers.
The soldiers in front of the two sides gradually fought and couldn't move, because because the soldiers behind them kept rushing forward, the little space between them to wave their weapons was gone, and the soldiers on both sides could only face each other with their bare hands, and for a while, fists, teeth, daggers and knives became the most powerful weapons.
Although the Sui army had few soldiers, the number of people in this small space was no longer important, because even if the side with the advantage in numbers had more people, it would be impossible to throw all the people into the battlefield.
The archers of the Sui army continued to shoot arrows from the broken walls on both sides to shoot the enemy soldiers, and the archers of the opposing army did exactly the same thing as them, and they spoke of a large number of bows and arrows shooting into the city through this gap, attacking the Sui soldiers who were blocked by the gap.
The soldiers on both sides of the battlefield are trying their best, they all want to survive to the end in this killing feast, they are not killing for the sake of killing, but to save their own lives, everyone understands that if they want to live, they must kill the enemy, kill more enemies!
