Chapter 281: Determining the Rear (3)
"Huhuhu" huge rocks flew out of the city, and the trebuchet was activated, smashing into the snowy people outside the city with a terrifying whistling sound.
"Boom".
More than a dozen charging snowy people were hit by ten pieces, turning into flesh on the spot, miserable, and blood and brains were scattered all over the ground
Two hours later, the battle entered the white heat, both sides were damaged, the snow people climbed the city many times, but were repelled by the soldiers defending the city, from the overall point of view, the king city is not easy to capture, which is also expected by the snow people.
Agulelli prepared 50,000 soldiers for this siege, and he believed that before these 50,000 people died, he would definitely be able to break the city, and by then, the million but the grain and grass would be their own, and the snowy tribe would not have to worry about food for several years
On the lookout platform in the north school field of Wangcheng, Wang Xu took Han Shuji, Li Zhi and others to watch with binoculars, and the battle situation in the city can be seen clearly here.
Wang Fan frowned and said: "It is difficult for the people of the Snow Region to conquer the royal city, will they push it away, I think it is better to pretend to be trapped and welcome them in." ”
Wang Xu's worries are not unreasonable, if there are too many casualties among the people in the snowy region, they will definitely give up the siege, then everything will be arranged in vain.
Han Shushu said with a smile: "Don't be impatient, when the Snowy People attacked Xiping Pass, they killed and injured more than 20,000 people and did not give up, and now they should prepare at least 50,000 soldiers to attack the royal city, which should be very clear to the tribes of the Snowy People." ”
"If we easily let the people of Fang Xueyu come in, I am afraid that they will not be fooled, and then a few people from the card department will enter the city, it will be quite troublesome."
Li Zhi nodded and said, "The last general only gave five thousand men to the captain who defended the city. ordered him to defend the city for three days, and if I think about it, it should be no problem for him to hold on for two days. ”
Wang Xu's palms were slightly sweaty, obviously a little nervous, he looked at the battle outside the city again, and then said, "Have all the ambushes in the school field been arranged?" ”
"There is no room for any difference this time. It's 100,000 iron horsemen who have entered the city, and we can't subdue the enemy, and it's ourselves who will die! ”
Li Zhi waved his finger and pointed around the school field, and said carefully: "Lord, don't worry, traps, chariot arrays, bow and crossbow arrays, etc., as long as the enemy dares to come in, there will be no life!" ”
The battle outside the city continued, and the people of the snow region ran to the bottom of the city without their lives, and then climbed up the ladder. Although he could only fall off for fear of burden, no one gave up.
I have to say that the people in the snowy region are fierce, and their fierce momentum is worth learning from all soldiers.
"Throw the giant tree down to me! Hurry, bear with it! The captain of the city shouted loudly, his face bulging with bruises, and he continued to command the soldiers.
Since he was sent here to defend the city, the captain has been happy and worried, and he is happy that he finally has the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. What's good is that Li Zhi only gave him 5,000 people. This made him very difficult, facing hundreds of thousands of enemy troops outside the city, if he could hold on?
However, he was not discouraged, because the enemy army under the city did not have a large attack weapon, just Jian Yi's ladder, which was for the soldiers defending the city. It's too simple, the walls are several feet high, and I feel that I have time to smash the enemy down before they can climb up.
So, unless the 5,000 are dead. Otherwise, the walls would never have been lost
Seeing the battle in front of him, Agulelli was expressionless, looked around and said in a deep voice: "The power of these three-bow bed crossbows is only like this, and it is not of much help in siege warfare. ”
Agulelli's eyes are sharp, and what he said is very reasonable, Wang Fan's three-bow bed crossbow is only good for defending the city and field battles, especially field battles, which can shoot the enemy flat, and the power is huge, but if it is placed under the city to attack the city, it is difficult to hurt the enemy, and the effect of the upward shooting is not good.
Ye Minye's face was ugly, and he arched his hand: "Patriarch Agu, even if we don't have a bed crossbow, we can conquer the dungeon, don't be too anxious." ”
The leaders of the tribes beside him all nodded in unison, judging from the battle situation in front of him, the resistance of the city was fierce, but the strength seemed to be a little insufficient, as long as it was a long time, it would definitely be able to break through, the royal city
"Brothers, pour me fire oil and burn all the enemies!" The captain of the city guard suddenly shouted loudly.
The captain's voice fell, countless fire oil tilted down from the city, and then, a rocket pierced the void and shot straight out of the city, suddenly, the city smouldered and ignited a sky-high fire, hesitating rolling wood, the corpses of the snowy people piled up, the fire was resolutely abandoned, the flames jumped several feet high, and even the ladder was completely submerged.
By this time, thousands of people in the snow region had been killed and wounded, and the fire was resolute, and they began to retreat, not daring to approach the strong.
After waiting for half a pillar of incense, Agulelli reluctantly ordered the withdrawal of his troops, and the first day of siege was over
The next day, the sun rose in the east, and the snowy people came again.
With Agulali's order, the siege battle began again, this time he invested more troops, and the forward siege troops were at least 20,000, covering all the inevitable strength of the royal city, and he had the determination of the Shiva royal city.
Chen Xingguo remembered that the captain of the city was forced to face the battle with a sad face, yesterday's battle, his subordinates lost more than 2,000 people, and now there are less than 3,000 people still standing, and he really has no confidence in facing so many snowy people today.
Last night, he went into the city to see Li Zhi and asked for more troops, but Li Zhi said that he didn't agree to anything, and insisted that he should use the number of 3,000 people to resist the snowy people, the captain was helpless, he sighed secretly, and could only do his best.
"Papapa" a family ladder on the head, the captain still commanded the soldiers to meet the battle calmly, some lifted boulders and smashed them under the city, some held the attack and shot down, and some directly gave the ladder to Chengjiang down.
The battle went on in an orderly manner
Ye Minye's eyes were sharp, he looked at the battle in the city, frowned, and said: "Patriarch Agu, why is the enemy's defense today not as fierce as yesterday, and the soldiers defending the city have also decreased a lot?" ”
"Hehe, isn't it better, they don't resist fiercely, then wait for the city to be broken." Agulelli laughed.
Time passed minute by minute, with the changes on the battlefield, the snowy people had been able to climb the top of the city many times, but the enemies on the hesitant city fought back, and the snowy people returned in vain and were killed one after another.
"All the departments are ready to enter the city, I see that this royal city is about to fall." Agulelli's eyes widened and he looked around the road.
All the tribal leaders are ready to rush into the city first, as long as the food in the school field is snatched and sold, they can go back to the snowy region, and they will no longer have to spring for food in the future, millions of grains, everyone can't help but swallow their saliva.
Ye Minye does not have such a good mind as everyone else, he is thinking about a problem at the moment, when he attacked Xipingguan some time ago, the city wall of Xipingguan is not as strong as the royal city, and it is not as tall as the royal city, but the uncle ten thousand people have attacked for half a month.
And now, it's only been two days, and the royal city is about to break, what is the reason, is the protection of the royal city not as good as Xipingguan? (To be continued......)
