Chapter 0515: Storming the Urn City

The city gate in front of you is actually just an urn city gate, that is, a circle around the main city gate, it is rectangular, there are two arched small gates on both sides, the city wall is as high as three zhang, fortunately there is no pier platform horse face, which is not common in the Central Plains. The www.biquge.info is located at the mouth of a mountain gorge, and there is no moat to store water.

The external structure is relatively simple, there are concave and convex tooth-shaped female walls on the top of the city wall, pheasant piercing perforations, together form a missing battlement, the city gate tower on the top of the main gate is a carved castle-style gatehouse, a strong crossbow can be arranged inside, and even military equipment can be stacked.

Due to the limited terrain, the city gate is naturally not a moat-type suspension bridge city gate, let alone a jack gate type, but in the urn gate by a huge iron hinge embedded in the masonry of the city wall next to the gate, the city gate is only a large wooden gate with an iron frame, just like an enlarged version of the courtyard gate of ordinary people's homes.

Therefore, compared with the suspension bridge and jack gate, this kind of gate is the easiest to breach. What's more, now a Pu knife is embedded in the city gate and stuck, and the three big iron bolts inside are also squeaked, and the city gate can't be closed for half a day, and hundreds of Liao soldiers are screaming anxiously in the back, desperately pushing the Pu knife that wants to knock out the bad thing, but the Pu knife is two or three inches wide, and it is difficult to get it out.

Pet Congduo just wanted to rush in, and when he saw that the city gate was about to close, he subconsciously threw out the Pu knife, and this time the Pu knife was also a little flustered, and immediately in the deep arched doorway, there was nothing to borrow from all sides, even if the city gate was not closed firmly, it was still difficult for manpower to break through the city gate.

"Pet the capital eunuch! Is this about taking the door? The Ma army behind him commanded Zhang Quanbin to follow up, and saw that the long handle of the Pu knife was still swaying from side to side, but for the heavy city gate, the Pu knife was still too thin.

"Go back quickly, and order Luanhe County to transfer an army up, let the brothers cut down nearby to knock on the door, and lead a hundred soldiers to resist!" The pet finally reacted and turned around to drink.

"But the brethren are coming non-stop, and they are so tired that with our troops, I am afraid that we will not be able to take this city!" Zhang Quanbin didn't expect that things would turn out like this, it would be very difficult to fight, such a good opportunity, it would be a pity not to fight.

"What a lot of, go ahead...... If it doesn't work, you will take the urn city! Seeing that Zhang Quanbin was resistant, the pet servant Duo shouted angrily.

"That's it! Let's fight, Zhang Xianggong can't treat the brothers badly...... "Zhang Quanbin turned his horse's head and led a team of soldiers to retreat, but the defeated soldiers of the Liao army in the distance have not been annihilated, and they are still resisting, but under the back and forth of more than 2,000 horsemen, the group is only a matter of time.

Seeing that the sword was still shaking, it would be knocked out sooner or later, and the war horse was too much of an obstacle in this narrow doorway, so he called out to the more than 100 soldiers behind him to go down to the ground to drive the war horse away, and quickly went to the door to find a few small flat stones, and punched them into the hinge wedge by the door.

At this time, the Liao soldiers in the door were still beating Pu Dao desperately, wanting to fight out again, and the pet Congduo was also beating outside, and the two sides were you who hit a little, and I hit a little bit in, so that Pu Dao was still stuck. In fact, as long as the soldiers of the Liao army pulled out all the big iron bolts and loosened the city gate a little, the Pu knife could be made, but no one dared to take this risk.

The soldiers of the Liao army were clustered in the door, and there were many people in a hurry, and finally someone thought of taking a spear and inserting it into the crack of the door as a lever, trying to pry the city gate loose, but the wooden gun barrel was too brittle, and it broke with a click.

"General Xiao! Use this ......" A soldier handed over an iron rod, Xiao Han took it with great joy, leaned into the crack of the door and pried it, the city gate squeaked a few strange sounds, and the bent Pu knife slid down, but the city gate still did not close.

What's going on? Xiao Han's eyes swept around, and he saw that another stone was wedged in the crack of the door under his feet, and he dared to believe that Zhou Jun took advantage of the city gate to be pried loose. However, this was not the end of the story, as more small stones were wedged inwards in dense clusters, and the cracks in the gates were wider.

In fact, at this time, it was not only these small stones that were stuck in the city gate, but also the large ones at the hinges of the door frames on both sides, and the soldiers of the Qianning Army stepped on the stones, waist knives, and helmets and stuffed them indiscriminately, and there were too many foreign objects, and the hinges could not be closed.

"General Xiao! Don't care about the urn gate, it is better to build another low wall behind the door, swing the horse to resist the horse, arrange 500 strong archers, and line up with sword and shield men and spearmen in the rear, plus the archers at the head of the city continue to shoot, and the Zhou army will not be able to enter! One of the generals suggested loudly.

"Good! Just do what you say! Xiao Han led his soldiers to retreat into the city from the main city gate behind, and then more than 1,000 Liao soldiers ran out in formation, quickly built a low wall in the narrow urn city, and spread out in a semicircle thirty steps behind the city gate, and then deployed troops.

At the same time, Xiao Han led more than 500 archers along the main city wall to the head of the urn city, condescending and waiting. At this time, on the gentle slope outside the city, the skirmish had stopped, and the hundreds of cavalry who fled back from Luanyang County with him were all wiped out, and hundreds of soldiers of the Zhou Army were beheading to clean up the battlefield.

This made the soldiers at the head of the city feel concerned, and Xiao Han shouted angrily: "Sons! The prime minister of the Beifu, the general governor of the military and state affairs, and the Zhongjing Dading Mansion stayed, and the Xi Wangfu Dashen Wen Xiao Haili General has led 50,000 troops to the south, and the forward is the Jianzhou Jiedu envoy, the Zhixing Zhongfu General Yelu Yaris, has led 10,000 troops out of Songziling, through the North Songting Pass, at the latest tomorrow at noon, we must stick to the help, to receive the army to the south, all understand! ”

"Hold on to help! Hold on to the ...... for help" The soldiers of the Liao army shouted one after another, responding loudly.

The soldiers of the Zhou army under the city ended the battle, cleaned the battlefield, collected bows and arrows, and armor, pulled all the horses away, and changed the infantry formation to stand by under the city. More than 100 soldiers led by Duo Duo were still in the door hole, and he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that there was no movement of the Liao army inside, and he approached the crack in the door and looked inside, and immediately understood the intention of the Liao army.

Soon, Zhang Quanbin cut down trees and cut off branches, and was carried by fifty soldiers to approach this side, and the favored Duo led the soldiers to run and exit, giving way to the empty space in the city gate, and raised his shield to resist the arrows falling from the city, and followed the soldiers who covered the rambling hammers to rush in and hit the door.

There was a thud, and the sharpened tree pole slammed against the crack in the gate, which shook with a strange sound, but it didn't open. One, two, three! The soldier shouted at the same time, and withdrew with his hammer and ran into it again and again, and the cycle continued.

After more than a dozen rounds of continuous slamming, the door panel cracked like a spider's web, and the big iron bolts inside finally bent off one by one, and the city gate was opened violently, but more than 50 soldiers carrying the hammers still ran forward, like a hundred-legged centipede crashing into the low wall with a roar in the face of the rain of arrows.

At the moment when the city gate was opened, Zhang Quanbin, who was on standby outside the city, led two thousand soldiers to rush into the urn city in the face of the rain of arrows, and quickly followed the front team to kill the Liao army behind the low wall.
