Chapter 8: Fighting in the City

A boulder fell impartially on the watchtower, and the watchtower was smashed by the boulder in an instant, and the sawdust of the watchtower that was smashed flew everywhere. The burning material projected by the Liao army on the city wall ignited the watchtower, and the city wall was plunged into a sea of fire.

"Manyu, this is crazy!" A boulder smashed on the city wall, and the rocks flew in front of He Tengxiao, He Tengxiao raised his hand to block a small stone that flew in, and his arm was smashed by the flying stone.

The city wall was smashed and shaken by the boulders, and there were several large cracks on the wall that were clearly visible, and the two boulders hit the cracks impartially, and the wall could no longer withstand such a violent blow, and collapsed, and the city wall was suddenly torn out of a big hole.

The horn of the Liao army's charge sounded at this moment, and a thousand elite horsemen rushed to Pingshan Fort like a flood that burst the embankment, as if to submerge this small fort.

"Manyu, the siege is ......," someone in Zhao's army shouted. This time, the Liao army did not adopt the usual siege method, but directly used cavalry to charge the city, and a thousand elite horsemen rushed to Pingshan Fort like wolves and tigers, and they were menacing.

"Fuck." Ling Feng tightened the armor on his body, "It seems that this man is determined to gnaw down Pingshan Fort." ”

"Even if Manyu gnaws down Pingshan Fort, we have to let them break a few teeth, so that these miscellaneous pieces understand that we are all hard bones, not easy to bully!" He Tengxiao took out the military flag of the Xiao cavalry camp and hung it up, the broken military flag fluttered in the wind, He Tengxiao stood under this military flag and gave an order, "I stand the flag of the Xiao cavalry camp here, the flag is in the people, and the flag is down!" If Manyu wants to occupy Pingshan Fort, he can only step on this flag! Stepping on our corpses! ”

He Tengxiao was tired, but his voice was sonorous and powerful when he said these words, and he was full of energy. Since he was born in this time and space, He Tengxiao has spent his time on the run, he cherishes his second life very much, and he is extra careful along the way, no matter how tired he is, he does not dare to slack off in the slightest. And all this, He Tengxiao only hopes to continue to live.

Pingshan Fort is a military fort run by the He family, and the defenders are no strangers to the Xiao Cavalry Battalion. In the three states of southeast Liaoning, it is enough for a family to be proud of being able to send their children and grandchildren to the Xiaoqi camp. The military flag of the Xiaocai battalion was like a strong agent, and the soldiers defending the city saw that the morale of this banner had risen sharply, and they were not so afraid in the face of the surging Liao army.

The defenders of Pingshan Fort calmly looked ahead, holding the loaded firearms in their hands, waiting for the Liao army to enter the firing range.

After visually inspecting the Liao army into the range of firearms, He Tengxiao ordered to open fire, and all kinds of firearms on the city wall sprayed angry deadly flames at the Liao army.

The Liao army was determined to succeed in this siege, and the casualties under a small military fort exceeded 400, which was a great shame for them! They want to wash away their shame with the blood of Zhao Jun!

The Liao army that rushed to the front and was shot fell, and the Liao army behind did not have the slightest intention of staying, and continued to rush towards Pingshan Fort by trampling on the corpses of their comrades. The men and horses that fell to their feet were trampled into meatloaf in an instant. But the Liao army was unmoved.

Achille was the first to charge into the shattered walls. The two Zhao soldiers raised their spears together and tried to push Achiller off their horses. Achiller skillfully took out two arrows from the quiver and shot a beautiful series of arrows, both of which hit the hearts of the two Zhao Jun impartially.

"Fuck it!" Ling Feng quenched a mouthful of foam, this Liao army general is powerful, just the beautiful Lianzhu arrow just now, I am afraid that there will not be more than three people in the entire southeast of Liaoning who can shoot Lianzhu arrows perfectly. The Manshu clan has established a country with martial arts, and since its prosperity, it has gathered stars, and this Manshu general who rushed to the forefront is one of the dazzling generals of the Manshu clan, Ling Feng thought to himself.

"Thunder Shock!" He Tengxiao kicked open the wooden box under his feet, picked up the hay covering it, and grabbed a round iron lump that was black and not in the middle of winter.

This kind of iron mound is the Zhao army's weapon to defend the city, called the earthquake thunder, built-in gunpowder, wrapped in an iron shell, ignite the fuse to detonate the gunpowder inside, and use the iron fragments produced by the explosion to kill and injure the enemy. It can be said that this thing is the prototype of the hand grenade of later generations. Although the earth-shaking thunder is a sharp weapon for defending the city, it is also a rare thing, and He Tengxiao has more than 150 of them in his hand, which is only used when he has to use them. However, due to the immaturity of the manufacturing technology, the explosion rate of the sky-shaking thunder is very low, and half of the one hundred and fifty sky-shaking thunders can explode because of the green smoke on the ancestral tomb.

He Tengxiao ignited the earth-shattering thunder in his hand and threw it towards the dense place of the Liao army. Some Zhao Jun burned incense and prayed to the heavens for a while to pray for God's blessing, muttering words such as blessing the earth-shattering thunder and driving out the man who killed a thousand knives. After chanting, he lit the earth-shattering thunder and threw it down the city.

The earth-shaking thunder smashed into the crowd, and several unlucky Liao soldiers were stunned and killed by the earth-shaking thunder. The earth-shattering thunder of the black lump fell to the ground, and the fuse was still smoking, but the Liao army did not take it seriously for a while. The Liao army is no stranger to the earth-shaking thunder, and the Zhao army has also used this weapon against them when attacking the castle in the past, but the sky-shaking thunder rarely explodes, and two or three of the ten can explode and burn high incense. This thing is no different from a stone in the eyes of the Liao army now, it is purely used to smash people.

Zhao Jun's luck was particularly good, perhaps it was their pious incense burning prayers that moved the heavens, and there were actually fifty or sixty earth-shattering thunderbolts that exploded. The Liao army was blinded by this indiscriminate bombing.

Achille's horse was cut by a piece of pig iron, and the iron piece was embedded in the horse's throat, and the horse was in severe pain and ran wildly. Achille had no choice but to abandon his horse and ride on a soldier's horse to continue the charge.

The Liao army's offensive was aggressive, forcing the Zhao army to death on the city wall, but the Zhao army's resistance to the Liao army was still very tenacious, and the offensive and defensive sides were deadlocked. The Liao army attacked the urn city, which was the place where more than 100 Liao troops including Chafan died yesterday. The blood stains left on the walls yesterday were quickly added to the fresher blood stains as they dried.

The crazy Liao army smashed the gate of the urn city, and before the Liao army had time to rejoice, the huge stone exposed from behind the broken wood blocked the city gate. The idea of the Liao army breaking through the city gate and directly attacking the castle came to naught.

"Rush to the city, kill all the Nanzhao people on the city wall, and rush to the city wall to enter the fort!" Achiller marks an ash gun, and a young Zhao soldier is nailed to the battlements by Achiller's ash gun. The Liao army was now trapped in the urn city, and the stubborn resistance of the Zhao army made it difficult for them to spread out in the small space of the urn city. If the stalemate with the Zhao army continues, the form will be very unfavorable to the Liao army.

Achille abandoned his horse and led his men with his sword to rush up the city wall in three steps and two steps, in a vain attempt to break through the deadlock. Achiller held the knife in his hand, and the Zhao army who wanted to get close to him was all hacked and killed by Achiller without exception. The Liao army had already rushed to the city wall under the leadership of Achille, and the Zhao army did not have time to reload the ammunition, so he directly picked up the fire gun in his hand as a burning stick and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Liao army.

The Liao army planted the battle flag of the Liao army on the wall of Pingshan Fort, and not far away, the broken military flag of the Xiao cavalry battalion fluttered in the wind.

The Liao army that rushed to the city wall couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the three big characters "Xiao Cavalry Battalion" embroidered on the broken military flag of the Zhao army. The flag is the soul of a force, the Liao army thought that it had annihilated the Xiao cavalry battalion in Yingzhou, and many Liao troops thought that they did not find the battalion flag of the Xiao cavalry battalion because the battalion flag of the Xiao cavalry battalion was accidentally burned in the war, so they were unable to find the battalion flag of the Xiao cavalry battalion.

The appearance of the battalion flag of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion here shows that the Xiao Cavalry Battalion was not completely annihilated by the Liao army, at least the remnants of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion absconded to Pingshan Fort and hit them again. The Xiaocai battalion not only inflicted heavy losses on the Liao army in Yingzhou, but also the Pingshan Fort guarded by its remnants became a shame for the Liao army!

The two armies fought fierce white-knuckle battles on the city walls. The Liao army in front stared at the shield to cover the comrades behind and rushed forward, and from time to time there were sporadic arrows and bullets into the shield, and the armor pierced into the ** of the Liao army hiding behind the shield. The Liao army that was shot fell to the ground bloodily, but these sporadic blows did not stop the pace of the Liao army's attack. The Liao army gradually approached the Zhao army, and soon the two armies staggered together to fight, swords and swords, flesh and blood flying! Nearly a thousand people fought on the narrow city walls!

"Kill!" He Tengxiao guarded the military flag around him, and with a loud shout, another Liao army was split in half by He Tengxiao. Thick corpses have piled up around the flag.

Achille's eyes were red, and his eyeballs were almost bursting out. Achille slashed down the two Zhao soldiers who rushed towards him, and one lunged at He Tengxiao, his eyes falling on the Xiao cavalry battalion flag fluttering behind He Tengxiao.

Achiller smiled coldly, as long as this military flag is captured, the morale of the Zhao army will inevitably be frustrated, and once the morale of the Zhao army is frustrated, it will only be a matter of time for the Liao army to take Pingshan Fort.

The six old men of the cavalry battalion guarding the banner saw Achiller's attempt and pounced on him, trying to stop him.

In the face of six brave veterans who rushed towards him, Achiller was unmoved. Dodging sideways, dodging the simultaneous attacks of the two pawns, Achiller slashed horizontally, and one pawn couldn't dodge, and the front door was slashed by Achille. Before the other pawns could react, Achille slashed one of the pawns in the left arm with a backhand. In an instant, six old pawns were killed and wounded.

These veterans are all elite pawns who have been tempered by the fires of war, and Achiller has solved two veterans without much effort, and his fighting ability can be seen. The remaining four pawns couldn't help but be cautious, and did not dare to rashly attack Achille again.

The surrounding Liao army saw that Achiller was besieged by the Zhao army, and pounced on the four old pawns beside Achille, entangled them to fight, and Achille saw that the four old pawns were entangled by his own people, and rushed straight to the military flag, in a vain attempt to take the military flag in one fell swoop.

Seeing this, He Tengxiao kicked away the Liao army that was fighting with him, stepped over several corpses, and slashed at Achille's claws stretched out to the military flag.

Achiller was only an inch away from the military flag, and was about to take the military flag, but in the face of the sudden knife, Achiller hurriedly withdrew his hand and dodged He Tengxiao's slash.

He Tengxiao's knife had just been withdrawn, and Achiller's knife had already slashed at He Tengxiao's head. This captive will be such a fast knife! He Tengxiao was accustomed to reflexively raising his knife to block Achille's attack.

The metal crashed and splattered shiny sparks, although He Tengxiao parried Achille's attack. But his hands were shaken and hurt, Achille didn't give He Tengxiao a little time to breathe, and forced He Tengxiao again, He Tengxiao could only parry, and did not find a chance to fight back. After parrying more than a dozen moves, He Tengxiao only felt that his body was blocked by something, and secretly screamed that it was not good, there was a city wall behind him, and if he retreated, he would fall off the city wall!
