Chapter 199: Destroying Wei 27
Bell, bell, bell...
After the rain of arrows, there was the sound of pieces of metal striking on the shield, and sparks flew in all directions, which was very terrifying; However, there were not many casualties in such a large movement, only a few rare arrows and feathers were transferred through the gap between the shields, and the soldiers were wounded, but the number was very small; Some of the soldiers carrying the ladder were shot dead, and then the next ones were immediately replaced.

The siege soldiers continued to advance, and when they came to the bottom of the city, they were greeted by a large wave of boulder attacks, as well as rolling log attacks, although the density of these things was not as dense as that of bows and arrows, but their attack damage was extremely high, and even shields were difficult to block.
"Bang Bang Bang..." When the enemy soldiers who threw boulders in the city withdrew the gap in their hands, the siege soldiers under the city seized this opportunity, and suddenly put all the ladders on the city wall, the number of hesitant ladders is too much, all of them are like paving a road, very light, the only bad thing is that this road is too steep, which is daunting.
"Hurry up, rush up...!"
The centurions who were in charge of leading the troops under the city shouted fiercely, cheered up their soldiers, and rushed quickly towards the city.
Each soldier held a shield in one hand and a horizontal sword in the other, and they were very fast, and they did not dare to hesitate, and when climbing the ladder, if they hesitated a little, they were likely to be stoned to death by the soldiers in the city, or bring danger to the soldiers behind them; During training, it is often said that speed is the first when attacking a city; Everyone took this to heart.
As his centurion gave the order, the soldiers climbed up desperately, and when a bow and arrow were fired, they raised their shields, and the strength of the shield was enough to block the bow and arrow; However, the light bow and arrow are easy to deal with, but the boulder is not so easy, even if the soldiers raise their shields, they are smashed and scream, and they are very helpless to roll down the ladder.
The siege battle is carried out together, the siege equipment is extremely simple, except that the ladder is a large bundle of knocking wood at the door, five huge logs are trapped together, more than a dozen soldiers are holding and hitting the city gate, but the effect is very poor, there is no reaction on the door, the sound of booming and booming is rough, there is nothing else, I think there must be countless enemy soldiers in it desperately resisting the city gate, making the resistance of the city gate more terrifying.
In the distance, Lu Chang was very anxious and excited, and he really wanted to rush up in person, especially when he saw his soldiers being smashed into the air, he would think that if he was in that position, he would definitely be able to shoot the boulder away with one shot, and he would definitely not be stoned to death, so that he could successfully attack the city.
"Lu Chang, you have worked very hard to train soldiers during this time, if it was before, the cooperation between the soldiers during the siege of the city must not have been so tacit. It can be seen that you have put your heart into it. Ling Feng said with a smile on his face.
He saw very clearly, five thousand people attacked the city, and there was a degree of attack and defense, there were soldiers responsible for charging, some were responsible for covering, and there were those who shot arrows below to counterattack those soldiers in the city, if it was not for strict and diligent training, it would never be possible, if it was in the past, the soldiers were swarming to attack the city, completely ignoring life and death, and there were no tactics, it seemed to be thousands of people, but in fact, it was quickly tossed and played. Today's soldier's performance made Ling Feng very satisfied.
When Lu Chang heard this, he said with a smile: "The lord has praised it, and the last general is just doing his own job." ”
"Look, my lord, before dark, I will definitely be able to take this city."
Lu Chang was very confident and assured Ling Feng.
Ling Feng smiled and didn't answer, he didn't think that he would be able to break the city in a day, but he thought that he couldn't pour cold water on Lu Chang, so he chose to be silent.
Han Yong smiled loudly and said: "Brother Lu, you can't talk too much, you have to capture it, I think the enemy is tenacious, and Wei Ning is not easy to mess with, you can be careful." ”
Lu Chang smiled coldly: "This doesn't have to worry about General Han, after all, the elite is the elite, what is this small city, hum." ”
"Then we'll see."
......
The battle lasted for more than four hours in a blink of an eye, and more than 5,000 siege soldiers were killed and wounded, but they still did not capture the city, during this period, although many people rushed to the city tower, but they were all forced by the enemy very strongly, and finally fell short, which fell in Lu Chang's eyes, but he was very annoyed, he had proposed to Ling Feng several times that he would personally lead the soldiers to charge, and he also repeatedly promised that he would be able to capture the city, but Ling Feng resolutely opposed, which made Lu Chang very helpless.
At this point in the battle, the five thousand people have basically finished tossing, Lu Chang gritted his teeth, and put the five thousand people who were transferred up before into it again, this time he personally beat the drums to cheer for all the soldiers, and with the war drums, another five thousand soldiers frantically approached, because this time there was no need to carry the ladder, so the speed of the advance was very fast, and in a blink of an eye, it was under the city wall.
Knock knock...
The war drums beat very rhythmically, and the five thousand people who suddenly rushed to it had obvious changes compared with the previous five thousand people, the latter was a new force, all quite fierce, and some people rushed up to the city tower at the beginning, but the result was still the same, when the soldiers climbed the city tower, they were killed and retreated by the group of spear teams in the city, to be precise, they should be forced to retreat, the dense spears flashed with cold light, and the soldiers had no other choice but to jump off the city tower.
Whenever he saw this, Lu Chang's heart was dripping blood, but he kept holding back and beating the war drum vigorously.
On the city tower, Wei Ning was not very happy, although the battle seemed to be going well, but he knew that this was all a superficial phenomenon, in fact, if it went on like this, he would not be able to last long, especially the attack on the door under the city, which had been hit for four hours, maybe when it would be knocked open, and by then, everything would be over.
Looking at the cauldrons not far behind him, Wei Ning gritted his teeth. Now it seems that it can only be spilled.
This trick has been tried and tested, when it was first at Surabaya Pass, the pond and numa can be called a classic, each time it can inflict heavy damage on the enemy, and even can temporarily suspend the enemy's attack, because the oil is very flammable, and it is often difficult to extinguish, which causes great difficulties for the siege troops.
"Lord, the oil has been boiled and can be used." Behind him, the voice of a school captain was heard.
The amount of oil required is very large, and there is more than one pot, so it is not completely boiled until now.
Wei Ning didn't hesitate and said, "Okay, let me splash hard under the city, don't let the enemy get close!" ”
"No."
......
Knock knock...
Lu Changzheng was beating the war drums while watching the battle in the distance, and when he saw the enemy soldiers on the city tower carrying those black pots, he looked shocked and a little angry.
"It's this trick again, it's this trick again...!"
Handing the drumsticks of the war drums to a soldier, Lu Chang turned over his horse and came to Ling Feng's side.
Ling Feng was also frowning, in fact, he had already thought of Wei Ning's trick, he thought of it when there was smoke all the time in the city, so he wasn't surprised, every time he attacked the city to the end, wasn't it like this.
Thinking of this, Ling Feng decided that he must think of a way to deal with this oil pot, otherwise whenever he attacks the city in the future, the enemy will always use this trick, which will be very troublesome and will make the soldiers feel afraid.
Whoa...
In more than 20 places of the city wall, the cauldron tilted, like a waterfall, and countless oils fell from the sky, all of which fell down the ladder.
At this moment, everyone was terrified, the amount of fuel was too large!
"Ahh Scald me, ah... ”
"Ahh My hand. ”
"Ahh
Screams and frightened sounds, at this time, those soldiers who were doused with oil all didn't care about the siege, and they jumped down the ladder involuntarily, because this kind of oil drenched on the body is particularly painful, just like a person was cut and then sprinkled with salt on the body, extremely terrifying, plus the oil is still boiling, and the degree of discomfort is even more terrible.
For a while, the screams continued, and the soldiers who climbed up to the top of the city became fewer and fewer, and they were often retreated as soon as they reached the position of one or two feet of the ladder. (To be continued.) )
