The two soldiers quickly loosened the hook buckle, and without the restraint of the falling force, the long arms of the ten demonic beasts swung out violently, and ten boulders flew into the air, roaring and smashing out of the city. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When the sound of the antlers at the head of the city sounded, Kang Sheli felt that something was wrong, this was the sound of the horn that had not appeared in the last attack, and he couldn't help but look up at the sky, only to see ten small black dots appear in the sky, like a flock of geese skimming the sky.

But the small black dot grew bigger and bigger, and instantly turned into a boulder tumbling in the sky, and smashed down on the top of the head of the Turkic vanguard soldiers, and the team shouted, and the soldiers were so frightened that they dodged in all directions, and the boulder fell, 'Bang! With a loud bang, the dust flew, and several soldiers couldn't dodge, and were smashed into meat sauce by the boulder, and the boulder continued to roll forward, knocking over dozens of people in a row before stopping.

A boulder hit the crowd, a 'click' sound of bones breaking, the surrounding soldiers were so frightened that they couldn't possess their bodies, even rolling and crawling, howling and running, but the boulder was a round stone bullet, and with the remaining strength it rolled forward for more than a hundred steps, and a scream sounded again in the crowd, and the boulder rolled out of a bloody road.

Wei Wentong is not wrong, the trebuchet is not only lethal, but also has a huge deterrent effect on people's psychology, far from being comparable to the big yellow crossbow, just two rounds of catapult attacks, there are hundreds of Xue Yantuo soldiers who went south for the first time could not bear the huge fear in their hearts, and began to turn around and flee.

At this time, Basil looked back and saw more than a thousand axemen not far away, and he was extremely annoyed, hating both the ruthlessness of Kang Shehry and the disgrace of his own soldiers, and it was a wave of trebuchet attacks that frightened him.

He gritted his teeth and ordered: "Drive them back, and kill those who refuse to go back!" ”

Without the help of Kang Sheli's law enforcement soldiers, hundreds of Basil's soldiers rushed forward and used swords and spears to drive the fleeing soldiers to turn around, more than a dozen soldiers refused to go back and were killed on the spot, and hundreds of Xue Yantuo soldiers had to turn around and continue the attack.

The bloody smashing of the boulder and the ruthless shooting of the big yellow crossbow made the Turkic army fall in batches, with a loss of more than forty percent, and to the disappointment of all the soldiers, their new shield did not play much role, and they could not resist the penetration of the big yellow crossbow at all, they could only comfort themselves that as long as they rushed through the shooting range of the big yellow crossbow, their chances of survival were much greater.

Nearly 5,000 Turkic soldiers finally killed the city, at this time, the Sui army's dense arrow array of crossbows exerted its strength, and the crossbow arrows were overwhelming, and the Turkic soldiers raised their shields and squatted down, and the heavy shields were crackled by the crossbow arrows shot like locusts.

But it finally blocked the shot of the crossbow arrow, and the arrow did not penetrate the shield, or even if it did, it was the end of the crossbow, and the shaft of the arrow was stuck in the shield and could no longer shoot through the soldier's leather armor.

It was with the protection of the new shield that only more than 200 of the 5,000 Turkic soldiers were killed and wounded, which greatly boosted the morale of the Turkic soldiers, and they began to cooperate with each other, one holding a double shield, and one person opening a bow to shoot arrows at the head of the city, and a network of arrows gradually formed above and below the city.

At this time, Kang Sheali saw that the new shield was effective, and he was overjoyed, and shouted: "10,000 siege troops!" ”

The second group of 10,000 siege Turkic soldiers rushed to the city wall, with 5,000 men in front of them carrying swords and spears, and 5,000 soldiers in the back carrying 250 siege ladders to the city wall.

The sky was full of broken limbs and splattered flesh, and the screams and wails resounded across the land, and the Turkic soldiers finally reached the bottom of the city, and one after another siege ladders climbed the city, and the crazy Turkic soldiers climbed the city like ant colonies.

Two thousand Sui soldiers put down their crossbows, and the rolling wood and stones fell down like hailstones, and groups of soldiers were smashed to the point that their heads were broken and bleeding, and they fell from the ladder, and the Sui soldiers forked the ladder with steel forks and struggled to push outward, the siege ladder lost its center of gravity and turned outward, and a string of Turkic soldiers on the ladder screamed and fell down.

Kang Sheli has already killed the red eye, and if he can't attack Lou Fu Pass today, the Khan will not let him, he shouted and ordered: "The third team, the fourth team press!" ”

Each team was 10,000 soldiers, the 50,000 Turkic army had already invested 40,000 people, and the entire battlefield was densely packed with people, and boulders tumbled down from the sky, killing pieces of enemy troops, but there were too many of them, like a few sprays in a wave, and they didn't play a role.

The Turkic army has successively put 500 siege ladders into the battlefield, more than 20,000 Turkic soldiers formed a powerful archery array, overwhelming arrows to the head of the city, the Sui soldiers on the head of the city to suppress the dead, the second batch of 300 siege ladders rushed to, the siege ladder reached the head of the city, more than 10,000 Turkic soldiers frantically climbed up.

The arrows under the city stopped shooting, and the Sui army immediately launched a counterattack, spear assassination, battle chopping, a piece of boulder smashed downward, a thousand Sui crossbowmen hid on the eight horse walls, shooting at the Turkic soldiers who climbed the city from behind, this is an extremely effective means of defense, many Turkic soldiers resisted the impact of the rolling wood and stones above their heads, but could not block the attack of the cold arrows behind them, and they were hit by arrows and fell into the wall.

But the most unhurried were the 1,000 archers on the southern wall, who shot a group of arrows into a parabolic line down the city, and the Turkic army at the head of the city was so dense that almost every arrow wounded and killed a person.

At this time, Konsali threw in the last 8,000 soldiers, and he made a desperate bet on the battle of success or failure.

At the head of the city, Wei Wentong saw that the other party had already poured his troops to kill, so he said to Wang Xuan: "You can prepare before retreating!" ”

Wang Xuanjing shouted, "Follow me!" ”

Five hundred Sui soldiers in charge of logistics followed Wang Xuanjing to move separately, in fact, after receiving the commander's order, the Sui soldiers began to prepare to retreat three days ago, the important materials in the warehouse have been withdrawn, and now it is necessary to destroy some of the city's defense facilities, the first is ten giant trebuchets, the trebuchets stopped firing, the main shaft was sawn off one by one, and splashed with high slave fire grease.

Under the guidance of Wang Xuanjing, the 500 soldiers who controlled the trebuchet took the lead in withdrawing, followed by 1,000 archers in Nancheng, followed by heavy crossbow soldiers who retreated against the big yellow crossbow, at this time, only more than 1,500 soldiers were left in a decisive battle with the Turkic army that was frantically besieging the city.

There were more and more Turkic troops, and only more than a thousand defenders were almost unable to withstand it, at this time, there was a dull loud noise from under the city, and the entire city wall was shaking, and it was a thousand Turkic soldiers who were banging the city gate with a giant log.

"General Wei, it's time to retreat!" A soldier shouted.

Wei Wentong nodded and ordered: "Ignition!" ”

Wang Xuanjing and the soldiers lit the fire grease on the trebuchet, the fire began to burn, and the high slave fire grease that had just been dumped on the city was also ignited by the Sui soldiers, and the smoke suddenly billowed on the city, this was the order to retreat, the soldiers had been notified before, and more than a thousand soldiers turned around and rushed through the smoke and ran towards the city.

Wei Wentong turned over his horse and guarded the gate of the southern city with a big knife in his hand, and groups of soldiers galloped from his side and ran towards the barracks at the foot of the mountain, Pei Xingyan's cavalry prepared war horses for them, and all the soldiers retreated on horseback.

At this time, the fire on the head of the city was soaring, the flames were so fast that even the city tower was set on fire, and the Turkic soldiers who were besieging the city did not dare to rush to the head of the city, and retreated to the city one after another.

'Boom! There was another earth-shattering sound, and the gate of the northern city finally couldn't support it, and was slammed open by the giant tree, and hundreds of Turkic soldiers holding the giant tree were unable to regain momentum, and followed the giant wood into the city, just at this time a giant trebuchet base was burned off, and the trebuchet fell, smashing the heads of more than a hundred Turkic soldiers.

The Turkic soldiers were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated, but there were still dozens of soldiers who could not retreat and were engulfed by the blazing trebuchet, and there were terrible screams from the flames, and gradually there was no sound.

At this time, there were no Sui soldiers in Lou Fu Pass, Wei Wentong sneered, turned his horse and left, and the last one to evacuate Lou Fu Pass.

The flames of Lou Fu Pass burned for an afternoon, and it was gradually extinguished at dusk, and although the Turkic army that attacked Lou Fan Pass paid a heavy price of 10,000 casualties, all the senior generals breathed a long sigh of relief, at least they completed the death order issued by the Khan and captured Lou Fan Pass.

Kang Sheli immediately sent people to report the situation of the Khan's battle, and sent more than a thousand people to clean up the city, and it was not until the next morning that he rode into the city with a dozen generals.

The loss of Lou Fu Pass meant that the northern gate of Bingzhou was opened, and the Turkic army could sweep south and kill directly to Taiyuan City.

At this time, the 80,000 Sui troops stationed at Lou Fan Pass had all retreated westward under Zhang Xuan's order, and the Turkic army had no resistance, and Chuluo Khan began to face a major choice, whether he should lead his army south.
