Chapter 650 is broken!

Three rows of giant shieldmen braved the rain of arrows at the front, shielding the archers behind them from the storm. The dense feather arrows pouring down from the city wall pierced the giant shield, and it looked as if Yan Yunjun's giant shield hand was rushing forward with a thick layer of snow. Feathered arrows kept coming in through the gaps in the shields, and people kept falling over with arrows. But the vacated positions they vacated were quickly filled by the comrades behind them, and Yan Yunjun's formation remained very intact.

The heavy crossbows on the city wall have been cleaned back and forth several times by Yan Yunjun's stone-throwing trucks, and none of them are still usable. Without heavy weapons to suppress, the Tang army defending the city could only put Yan Yunjun in front of him and then fire his bow and arrows. Their only advantage was their superiority, but now that the battlements had been smashed, they were also exposed to the enemy's feathered arrows.

"Keep pressing, archers, suppress the enemy on the city wall, fire dragon soldiers go up!"

Liu Man gave the order loudly, and his eyes had turned red.

The so-called fire dragon soldiers are soldiers trained by the Second Department of the Military Inspectorate and the military, and one of the most important conditions for selecting these soldiers is that they must run fast enough. Their task was to brave the rain of arrows to rush to the front, ignite the fuse of the powder packet and run back. They are engaged in the most dangerous occupations, and their salaries are correspondingly the highest in the whole army. Ten fire dragon soldiers rushed over, and it was already a blessing of heaven to be able to come back alive.

These people are all people who have committed serious crimes, either bandits who kill people and steal goods, or Jiangyang thieves who are arrested by Yan Yunjun. As long as they don't die, they can immediately regain their freedom, or stay in the army and go to other battalions to work, or take a large sum of money home and become a little rich man. These people are already a dead end, and staying in the prison is also waiting for the end of the beheading, there is a chance to live, and they naturally refuse to let go, as long as they can run a lap and come back alive, they will have no worries about food and clothing for the second half of their lives.

Days of attack, gunpowder and stone-throwing trucks under the dual effect, the city wall of Hedong City has cracked a huge gap, just now when Wu Tianxi led the men and horses to attack, sacrificed more than 20 fire dragon soldiers and finally ignited a few gunpowder bags under the city wall, but only blasted the city wall out of a deep pit but failed to make the city wall collapse. Because the losses of the archers were too great, Wu Tianxi had to retreat. But there is no doubt that the walls will not last much longer.

"Blow up those dogs-mothers-raised!"

Zheng Xiao San of the Fire Dragon Soldier was originally a thief who traveled thousands of families at night in Lu County, but after being caught by the Lu County Government, he was sent to the second department for training because of his excellent skills. This person was originally a fierce and violent character, and after being arrested, he thought that he would be asked to kill everything, but now that he has a chance to live, how can he not cherish it?

Few people are not afraid of death, and few people can withstand the temptation of life.

He let out a loud shout and rushed forward with a roar of more than thirty dragon soldiers. As they rushed forward, Liu Man gave an order, and the archers hiding behind the shield array stood up neatly, and hundreds of feathered arrows immediately poured out towards the city wall. A dense stream of feathered arrows flew up the city, and in an instant the defenders lay down one floor. Many Tang soldiers who were hit by arrows fell from the city wall and fell to the ground, and their flesh and blood were blurred.

Taking advantage of the short time when the archers of the defenders were suppressed, Xiao San ran forward with the fire dragon soldiers like crazy. He was a lone thief, and his feet were extremely fast. Rushing forward quickly on the corpse, from time to time dodging a flying feather arrow. Among the corpses on the ground, he quickly approached the city wall like a rabbit.

"Kill him! Kill him! ”

Wang Duo, who was standing on the city wall, shouted loudly, and dozens of archers immediately aimed at it.

With a pop, a feather arrow pierced through Xiao San's shoulder, he was hit by a feather arrow and stumbled and almost fell, raised his head and glanced at the Tang army on the city wall, Xiao San screamed and roared madly and rushed forward: "Lao Tzu exchanged military merit for his life!" No one is allowed to stop Lao Tzu from living again! Don't be a robber anymore, if you want to be a general! ”

The dragon soldiers around him fell one after another, and some of them were not dead from the arrows, lying on the ground and wailing. Xiao San couldn't see these things in his eyes, he stared at the gap in front of him that almost cracked to the root of the city wall, as if he saw a beautiful future.

He finally ran to the bottom of the wall, and then shoved the powder bag into the crevice and lit it. The Tang archers on the city wall were all crazy, leaning out and shooting arrows straight down. The density of feather arrows made people shudder, and at the moment when Xiao San lit the fuse, at least four or five feather arrows were shot at him. He shook a few times and took a few steps back, and his chest was immediately thrust with a feather arrow.

"Lao Tzu...... Lao Tzu wants to ...... General! ”

The blood spilling from the corners of his mouth was extremely scarlet, but there was an arrogant smile on his face!

Rumble!

A huge fireball exploded in front of him, and his body was blown away by the tremendous force of the explosion. The entire front chest was torn apart, and the stomach was blasted open and the internal organs were thrown all the way. The arm was blown away and I don't know where it flew, the whole face was blown into a bloody blur, and a pair of eyes turned into two bloody black holes. After landing on the ground, Xiao San convulsed a few times, and the blood coming out of his mouth was extremely thick.

Rumble!

There was another loud bang, and the wall, which had cracked a huge gap, finally collapsed.

……

……

Xu Shiji, who was standing on a high slope watching the battle, had his eyes lit up, and then pointed to Hedong City in front of him and ordered: "Blow the horn and let Wu Tianxi's vanguard army all press up." Cheng Mingzhen, take your men and horses to support Wu Tianxi, and you must take Hedong City today! ”

The commander of the Houtu battalion, the general of Wu Ben, Cheng Mingzhen, responded loudly, and then rode back to his own formation, mobilizing the men and horses of the Houtu battalion to press towards Hedong City. In the past few days, Wu Tianxi's Aoki battalion has been trying their best to attack the city, and the other battalions are just watching the battle, and the soldiers of the Houtu Battalion, who have already held their breath, are running forward with all their strength, for fear that they will be left behind by their comrades.

With a loud noise on the side of the city wall, Wu Tianxi's tense nerves finally relaxed. His solemn face softened slightly, and he took off his lance from his horse and pointed forward and ordered, "Aoki battalion, the whole battalion is attacking!" ”

The horn sounded, and the rest of the Aoki camp began to rush forward. Before the sound of the horn fell, the sound of earth-shaking war drums came from the rear team. Eighty-eight huge cowhide war drums beat at the same time, and the sound was so loud that it almost shook the floating clouds in the sky. The sound of this drum sounded just right, and the soldiers of the Yanyun Army who were besieging the city suddenly became even more violent.

Under the leadership of the team and the brigade leader, the tide of Yan Yunjun rushed up from the place where a gap collapsed like a frenzy, and they shouted the slogan of the Aoki battalion forward, falling down layer by layer and rushing up layer by layer. The Tang Army archers on both sides of the broken wall kept pulling their bows and releasing arrows like crazy, and then pulling their bows and releasing arrows, not caring that their fingers were already blurred with flesh and blood.

The Tang army reserves in the city began to pounce, trying to kill the Yan Yun army who had climbed up halfway. As soon as the men and horses on both sides clashed, a wave of red broke out, and the blood mist burst out one by one in the crowd, and the stump and broken arm fell to the ground, and soon it was impossible to see the original appearance.

"Kill!"

The soldiers on both sides shouted, murderous. Because of the geographical advantage, the Tang army rushed down from the high slope of the broken wall, and with the help of inertia, the soldiers who came up from the Yanyun army were pressed down in an instant, but the back was killed, and the Yanyun army, which had no way to retreat except for rushing forward, soon rushed up again. The corpses on the slope were spread layer upon layer, and blood flowed down the stream of corpses.

"Archers, shoot! Force the thieves back! ”

Wang Duo, who was standing at the mouth of the broken wall, shouted with red eyes, but the soldiers of the two sides below had already been mixed together, and the archers had no way to aim! Seeing that his archers hesitated, Wang Duo snatched a hard bow and fired three or four arrows in succession.

"Shoot!"

He shouted at each arrow, and gradually some of the archers began to draw their bows, and slowly, more and more people began to shoot arrows. They wept and fired arrows, watching their companions die from their own arrows along with their enemies.

Seeing that the Yan Yun army on the slope was once again pushed down, and when the archers of the Tang Army had already cleaned up all the people on the slope, whether they were friends or enemies, a group of about 200 heavy armored infantry waved their hands and surrounded their broadswords in a queue, and the feather arrows hit their heavy chain mail and stirred up a spark, and the clanging sound was like playing a song of slaughter.

The heavy infantry of 200 men slowly ran over like a heavy armor under the rain of arrows. The Tang soldiers who stopped in front of them were put down layer by layer like cutting wheat with ring-headed knives in their hands, and the Tang army retreated one after another, and after losing more than sixty heavy armored infantry, Yan Yun's army finally attacked along the slope.

"Step through the east of the river!"

I don't know who shouted first, and the thousands of Yan Yun troops who were silted up at the broken mouth of the city wall shouted in unison: "Step through the east of the river!" ”

Step through the east of the river!

Wang Duo's face was extremely pale, and he knew that he could no longer hold Hedong City.

As Yan Yun's army attacked the city along the slope, the Tang army's resistance to defending the city suddenly collapsed, and Yan Yun's army rushed into it like boiling soup and pouring snow, and soon spread to the streets of Hedong City.

Just when Wang Duo organized his men to prepare to launch a counterattack to try to push Yan Yunjun back, the eunuch who had come before ran over panting, shouting as he ran: "The king of Hedong asked the slave maid to ask if he was guarding the ...... today."

"I-your ancestor!"

Wang Duo slashed half of the eunuch's head with a knife, and kicked the corpse that had not stopped flying out with one kick.

"Hedong City is broken, you and I are in a catastrophe!"

He shouted: "Only by retreating from the enemy can we save our lives!" Kill! ”

He shouted wildly, and jumped down the slope from the city wall first, as if he was crazy and killed into the tide-like Yanyun army, but it was a pity that there were less than a hundred people who jumped down with him, and they were soon overwhelmed by the torrent, and after a while, they were trampled into flesh.

Hedong City, broken!
