Chapter 104: Siege Battle (I)

"Woohoo"

The rain of arrows that covered the sky finally fell from the sky, and bright red blood flowers bloomed on the city in an instant, and the soldiers in the city fell one after another.

The soldier who was still bare-chested just now, shaking proudly, suddenly felt a piercing pain in his buttocks, and hurriedly looked back, and there were actually three long arrows pierced on his buttocks at the same time, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

Suddenly, he howled like a pig: "Ahhhh ”

Before he could finish his sentence, he was shot in the back of the heart by a fourth arrow, his eyes bulged, two mouthfuls of blood gushed out of his mouth, and finally he fell to the ground with a poof.

"Ah, my eyes, my eyes, they hurt"

Another soldier desperately covered his eyes, and there was a sharp long arrow between his fingers, and his eyes were directly exploded, bleeding bright red flesh and blood, and the screams did not last long, and after a while, he was desperate, and the sharp long arrow had been inserted into the skull, how could there be a reason to live.

A soldier in the distance who didn't have time to dodge was even more unlucky, he was directly shot in the throat by a fast-shooting arrow, the sharp arrow instantly burst his Adam's apple, bringing up a blood-colored demon flower, and then the powerful arrow penetrated the throat, straight to the tail of the arrow, the powerful penetrating force directly took him away, and finally nailed to the city gate tower, the screams did not have time to be issued, tilted his head, and died instantly.

The two companions next to him were frightened, and they ran in surprise, screaming and shouting, but soon Zhang Chujun's second round of arrows arrived again, and the two of them were accidentally pierced by long arrows through their chests, fell to the ground with a poof, and couldn't get up.

For a while, there were endless wails on the city, and one by one the living lives died one after another.

In the two rounds of arrow rain, the inexperienced recruits of the Qin army were severely damaged, and at least nearly 1,000 casualties fell in a pool of blood, of which more than 400 died directly on the spot, forever losing the opportunity to grow into a veteran.

However, under the threat of death, Qin Jun quickly learned to protect himself.

When the rain of arrows stopped and the next rain of arrows arrived, except for a few stunned people, most of the people hid behind the battlements, or hid under the shields, and if it was too late, they dragged the dead bodies over to block the bunkers and defend against the bows and arrows.

Among them, several soldiers who were seriously injured and dying, knowing that there was no hope of survival, took the initiative to serve as a human shield for Paoze, and were shot into hedgehogs by the rain of arrows in the last instant.

Seeing this cruel scene, the infant and other generals in the distance laughed, this is the result of the baptism of blood and fire, only by constantly pouring iron and blood, and sacrificing each other, can an invincible army be created.

Zhang Chujun's archers finally ran out of arrows, retreated under the cover of the shield hand, returned to the rear to repair, replaced with sharp swords, and prepared to enter the battlefield at any time in hand-to-hand combat.

At this time, Ge Ying stood on the chariot, waved the command flag, only to see the front of the military formation 'hulala' again give way to a road, thousands of light soldiers and dead soldiers swarmed out, each of them had a sack on their heads, the sack was full of soil, out of the army formation, hunched over, fearless to death to rush to the moat in front of the city wall.

"Bow battalion, counterattack!"

Cao Wuxian shouted, first stood up from under the wall, and opened the shooting bow, aiming at the dead soldiers rushing under the city, followed by Yu Ziqi, he held a four-stone birch strong bow, buckled a wolf's tooth heavy arrow, and the murderous aura was condensed.

Then, countless heads emerged from under the battlements, and nearly 5,000 crossbowmen pulled their bowstrings at the same time, aiming sharp arrows at the dead soldiers under the city.

"Shoot!"

With Cao Wushu and Yu Ziqi shouting, two wolf tooth arrows rushed out, and under the city wall, the two dead soldiers who ran in front suddenly pounced on the ground, and the arrows penetrated through the back of the heart.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the crossbow battalion on the city wall released their bowstrings at the same time, and thousands of arrows were like locusts, fiercely pounced on those light soldiers and dead soldiers, although the dirt bags were used as shields by them, but the arrow rain was too dense, and countless dead soldiers fell in pools of blood, and the dead soldiers behind stepped on their corpses and continued to charge.

"Haha, shit, it's grandpa's turn to wield his crossbow."

"Go die, Lao Tzu wants to avenge the second dog."

"Shoot, shoot these turtle grandchildren!"

In a roar of revenge, the soldiers of the Qin army's bow and crossbow battalion frantically poured out their arrows, trying to get back to the previous field, especially the dozens of large bed crossbows in the Qin army, as well as nearly a thousand small bed crossbows, the powerful arrows can shoot through at least two people, and can shoot more than three arrows at a time.

The dead soldiers of Zhang Chujun under the city were like wheat, one by one they were harvested to the ground, and the land under the city was stained with blood.

Zhang Chu's army was in the rear, and Ge Ying, who was standing on the chariot, frowned fiercely, the Qin army's arrow array was really powerful, and at this moment, the casualties of the soldiers under his command had already surpassed the Qin army.

However, Ge Ying did not retreat because of the casualties, but waved the command flag again, only to see that in the rear formation, together with the archers and dead soldiers just now, all raised the sacks filled with dirt in the rear army, and rushed forward.

Finally, regardless of the casualties, Zhang Chujun rushed to the moat without fear of death, and threw dirt bags into the river, and in less than three quarters of an hour, several passages were filled in the moat.

Looking at the light soldiers who ran back alive, Cao Wushu and Yu Ziqi couldn't help but feel a pity, if it weren't for the first time the bow and crossbow battalion went to the battlefield, and the dead soldiers in the city carried dirt bags as shields, their results would have been greater.

However, time did not allow them to think too much, and with Zhang Chujun's desolate horn sound again, a team of Ge Yi dead soldiers rushed out under the cover of the giant shield warriors, pushing five ladders and a siege vehicle.

At the head of Linzi City, the bow and crossbow battalion shot desperately, but they couldn't stop the advance of the siege vehicle and the cloud ladder, and Zhang Chujun hid behind the cloud car, which was extremely difficult to shoot.

In an instant, Zhang Chujun pushed five ladders and a siege vehicle through the filled passage, approaching the city wall almost at the same time.

In the end, the dead soldiers of Zhang Chujun began to pull the rope of the ladder, driving the axis at the top of the ladder to rotate, and the other one or two hundred dead soldiers pushed the city cart under the cover of the shield and started to run.

Tang Li shouted loudly: "Lu Ze, you take all the people to go down to the city gate, be sure to ensure the safety of the city gate, Yu Zi period, Cao Wu is injured, you bring a bow and crossbow battalion to prevent them from pulling the ladder as much as possible, Guan Ying, Yingbu organized heavy soldiers to project the materials for defending the city, and be ready for white-knuckle battle at any time." ”

"No!" Everyone responded with a bang, and finally Tang Li also rushed to the battlements with his own soldiers to fight in person to boost morale.

Arrows, rolling logs, and falling rocks fell one after another, and the city wall was like rain, fiercely smashing on the cloud car and Zhang Chubing at the bottom, and people kept screaming and falling to the ground, and the blood kept splashing on the city wall, and finally dyed red.

Zhang Chujun suffered heavy casualties, but soon, more dead soldiers were replaced, and the cloud chariot was not damaged at all because it was solid and wrapped with iron sheets, and under the blood of many Zhang Chujun, the rope of the cloud ladder was finally pulled apart, and the shaft began to creak and turn.

"Hey, ha, ha!"

"Hey, ha, ha!"

"Hey, ha, ha!"

In Zhang Chujun's wave after wave, neat chanting, the half-section of the movable ladder that was originally folded and pressed on the fixed ladder began to take the center of the top machine bracket as the axis, slowly lifted up, and after a while, it was completely erected, and then gradually tilted down towards the city head, and finally fell on the wall battlement.

The grip of the ladder wrapped in iron pieces clasped the battlement, and in an instant, the two ladders formed a slope that fell from the top to the top of the wall.

The next moment, countless Zhang Chujun frantically rushed to the cloud ladder like ants, screaming in their mouths, climbed the cloud ladder, and rushed towards the city.

On the watchtower in the distance, when Zhao Jun saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh that the wisdom of the ancients was really powerful, and the small cloud ladder made the unclimbable city wall instantly flattened.

"Iron Guard Battalion, follow me to the city."

After getting off the watchtower, Zhao Jun suddenly pulled out his Wushan sword and shouted in a deep voice at the two hundred iron guards who were on standby at all times.

"No!" The iron guards suddenly agreed, choked, pulled out their iron swords, and followed Zhao Jun all the way to the city gate.

"Kill, drive them down!" At this time, Lu Ze, Guan Ying and Yingbu and other generals all rushed to the front line with their personal guards, slashing and killing the enemy army, and the blood was soaked in heavy armor.

Cao Wushu and Yu Ziqi's soldiers with bows and crossbows also drew their long swords and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy army in the east of Dengcheng.
