CHAPTER XXXV
Taji stood at the head of the city, and saw the Huns roaring all over the mountains, and I don't know how many cloud ladders, long ropes, and soft ladders were hung on the city head at the same time, and the arrows covering them in the air were like dark clouds covering the top of the mountain, and the rain of arrows shot from the city head was suppressed in an instant.
The soldiers of the Great Moon raised their shields in one hand, and they had no strength left to stretch their bows, and those who threw wooden boulders without their lives became the souls of the dead under the arrows, and in the blink of an eye, a large piece of the city fell.
The Huns were so ferocious, at this time they had seized the opportunity, and I don't know how many people were carrying huge shields, and they were about to climb to the top of the city in a blink of an eye.
The Dayue soldiers knew that the situation was dangerous, and they all fought hard to attack with spears, Taji also knew that it was without further ado, and under an order, the Qiuzi heavy infantry had formed a formation at the head of the city, seeing that there were more than a dozen Huns waving their weapons wildly and were about to hit a piece of territory, the Qiuzi soldiers two ten-man captains put their spears flat, and with a loud shout, they pressed away like chariots, and those Huns were about to raise their weapons, but the length of the spear was pierced through the body in a blink of an eye, and the remaining momentum did not stop, pushing them directly to the city.
Two Huns dodged in time, raised their swords and slashed, and the huge shield of the turtle soldiers shook and swung them straight away, and the spears entered like poisonous snakes, stabbing them on the city wall.
A total of twenty ten-man teams rushed to the head of the city, and the Huns who had just entered the city and had not yet gained a firm foothold knocked down the city wall, and the morale of the soldiers of Dayue was revived, and the defense line was hurriedly repaired, and the two sides broke out in a bloody battle at the head of the city.
******
In the face of the Huns who rushed to the Huns, Ma Ti ordered the soldiers to protect each other with shields, and launched all the defensive weapons, and the Huns who rushed up rushed to the city were pressed into minced meat, and the boiling oil on the city was poured down, and the flesh of the people was scalded away from the body, and the defenders of the Great Moon also tried their best to cut off the ladder and so on, and the Huns fell straight down, and the dead and wounded pillowed.
But the defenders of the city also fell under the rain of arrows of the Huns, Ma Ti loudly boosted morale, the soldiers of Dayue were able to kill, and there were many people who were still shouting with several arrows in their bodies, and Xicheng became a human flesh Shura field in a blink of an eye.
Finally, there was an iron tower-like Hun man standing at the head of the city, he waved a huge axe, and several Dayue soldiers in front of him were cut in two, and Ma Ti was furious, and also swung a giant axe to cut him.
The big man sneered, lightly let go, Ma Ti split the air with an axe, and secretly screamed that it was not good, sure enough, the big man's axe handle was inserted straight into Ma Ti's right shoulder, and with a wave of the axe, Ma Ti's head shrank, but it was too late, his forehead was split, he snorted, blood poured out, and he fell to the ground, life and death are unknown.
The big moon soldiers saw the boss fall, all red eyes, angry shouts in the first succession, pounced on the Hun giant, the giant man is very good, although let the big moon people drag away the horse in the chaotic battle, but the giant axe opened and closed, has opened a space, behind the Hun soldiers with axes surged up, taking the opportunity to capture the city.
The archers of the arrow tower above the city immediately focused on this gap, and the Huns raised their shields to expand outward, but they still hit the arrows one after another, because the arrows came from the left and right sides, and there was no way to avoid them, and they could only gather together in a formation in a hurry to protect each other.
However, the Huns had already established a foothold in the city, and the Otsuki soldiers in the city fell into confusion because the fate of the commander was uncertain, but fortunately, the hoplites of Qiuzi also entered the battlefield at this time, and the Huns were evenly matched on the city walls.
However, when the battle on the city wall was evenly matched, the city-breaking hammer outside the city had no obstacles, and they mustered up all their strength, hitting the city gate with a huge log, making a loud noise, and the mud on the door fell like rain.
The contest of pure body lì finally won with more people, the Huns outside the gate were forced to break the city gate by the crazy pursuit of the supervising team, there was no urn city in Dayue City, the Huns passed through the sundries, the spear array of the Dayue soldiers was overwhelmed, the Huns who rushed in first were strung up by spears and pushed out of the city, and the Huns outside the city were pouring into the city, and the people caught in the middle were rolled into meat sauce when they landed.
But the force inward was greater after all, and the Otsuki soldiers were pushed back, and at this time, arrows were fired at the city gate from all directions, but they could no longer stop the scrambled besiegers.
At this time, the Huns did not distinguish between nobles and slaves, the spoils of war were all the pursuits of their lives, and the siege of the city was the most direct way to win wealth with their lives, and all the blood that had been shed became a huge motivation at this time, pushing their fury to the peak, and there was only one thought left in their minds:
Kill them all.
******
When Sima Dan heard the sound of Xicheng's door knocking, he knew that something was wrong.
If the army defending the city had left the opportunity to hit the door in such a rhythmic and continuous manner as the ramstick, the city would definitely have lost control, and the gate would be smashed open sooner or later.
The robbery at the head of the city is only the control of the stronghold, and the destruction of the city will always start from the city gate.
Sima Dan had a lower leg injury, and his left shoulder was also slightly injured, at this time, the use of the long lance must have been discounted, but the enemy was at present, and he could not hold back, he took the lead, led the light cavalry team in Dayue City, and galloped to the west gate.
Two hundred horsemen were like the wind in the streets of the Great Moon City, and they could only be pulled into a long snake, because the streets of the city were also full of people, most of whom were peasants who had lived outside the city and had nowhere to escape.
Sima Dan took the lead, and soon saw the camp tents and flying debris in front of him, and the screams and screams had converged, like a gust of wind rushing from the front.
Then, Sima Dan saw the figures of the Xiongnu entering and exiting the people's tents on the street, and blood was pouring everywhere, and it was chaotic.
Sima Dan shouted angrily: "Slow down! ”
Yuli, who was following behind, hurriedly told the cavalry to slow down, but Sima Dan did not slow down, and rushed forward, stabbing with his spear, just going all the way forward, attacking all the targets he could.
When the cavalry slowed down the horse, he had already drawn his bow and arrows and entered the posture of attack, Yuli saw that Sima Dan did not slow down the horse, so he knew that his horse team was responsible for the task of sweeping, so he gradually accelerated, where the horse team passed, the arrows were not in vain, and the Huns in all parts of the long street who did not hide were hit by arrows.
Sima Dan quickly caught up, because the Huns in front of him formed a small phalanx, spears like a forest, he did not dare to rush hard, Yuli they rushed from behind, a rain of arrows, the phalanx finally a little chaotic, Sima Dan saw the opportunity, kicked away the two shields with the horse's hooves, and the red light of the lance blade flew, killing a bloody road.
But at this time, the howl of the Huns became louder and louder, when Sima Dan rushed to the west gate, I don't know how many Huns entered the city, the Dayue soldiers relied on the arrow towers on both sides of the street to hold the position, and there were about 100 Qiuzi infantry formed a phalanx on the left side to advance to the city gate, trying to close the entrance, the place in front of the west city gate is not big, can not be opened, many Huns not only entered the streets and alleys, but also climbed to the top of the building, left and right climbing.
At this time, Mira rode a horse from there and rushed to Sima Dan: "The city is broken!" Retreat to the palace! ”
Seeing that Mira was frightened, Sima Dan pulled her rope and said violently: "The city is not broken, it is not appropriate to retreat to the palace now, there are many fewer people who have come in than us, don't be afraid!" ”
Mira cried, "It's you! I know that this city can't be defended! What are we doing now? ”
Sima Dan shouted: "Follow me!" As soon as he clamped the horse's belly, Xiaohong shot out like an arrow and attacked a group of Huns who were also in formation opposite the Qiuzi soldiers.
Those Huns didn't expect Sima Dan's coming so urgently, Sima Dan stretched his bow on the horse, and the other cavalry was the same as him, shooting arrows into the small infantry formation of the Huns from the side, and shot down a piece of Huns for a while.
Light cavalry is the mortal enemy of the infantry, because they use arrows as the main means of attack, and are not afraid of infantry formations, and if they encounter a random soldier, their charge is the last nightmare of the infantry. The cavalry of the Huns did not arrive, which was the opponent?
The arrival of these 200 cavalry turned the situation in Xicheng back, Sima Dan turned over and dismounted, walked to a corner under the city gate, kicked away several corpses, and finally saw a big iron rod by the door.
Adam also rushed to this time: "Wait for me!" "Push your arms through and pull the big iron rod down.
There was a scream from the city wall, and an iron gate fell violently, hitting a siege vehicle on the ground, almost cutting it in two, and more than a dozen Xiongnu who were passing through Guò were crushed into meat sauce, but the iron gate did not fall to the ground, leaving a knee-high space on the ground, and the Xiongnu could still climb through and enter the city.
Mira was stunned: "Doesn't this waste this iron gate?" How much effort did it take to pretend at the beginning? They...... Still crawling in! She pulled Sima Dan hard.
Sima Dan slapped her with a snap: "Princess! Now that we're at war, your actions will make the army feel uneasy, stay calm, okay? ”
Several arrows flew with a whoosh, and Sima Dan pulled her behind him again: "Follow me!" Take the shield. ”
At this time, Yuri and the others found a huge axe, and when they reached the iron gate, they cut down the people who had climbed in, and several people were cut in two, but Adam used too much force, and the blood slipped and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, the Huns did not dare to climb in, and the ** arrow was outside, and at the same time the rumbling sounded, and the new ram approached again.
Sima Dan knew that unless he regained the city, it would be a matter of time before the iron gate would be broken.
The momentum of the Huns in the city is also being suppressed, the arrows on both sides of the arrow tower on the city head from the beginning of the fear of hurting their own people into bold shots, and the reinforcements of the big moon are also coming, when Sima Dan rushed to the city wall with a team of big moon soldiers, saw Ma Ti lying on the ground, life and death are uncertain, he can't help but be sad and angry, he threw away the lance, pulled out the saber and rushed into the melee.
All the killing methods learned by the teenagers and accumulated on the battlefield entered Sima Dan's spiritual consciousness selflessly, the enemy's knife slowed down as if it was weak, and there was no threat in his eyes, he flashed in and out of the space where the weapons were intertwined, and the knife in both hands also avoided the weapons that the enemy resisted, and cut into the enemy's flesh and blood like a cloud.
A mace broke through the air, and he turned around, and the knife slashed into the opponent's forearm in a circle from right to back, and with a twist of the blade, the man was already in front of the next enemy when he cut open the man's lower abdomen.
Sima Dan picked a place with many enemies to kill, and when he came out, he had become a bloody man, his mask was put down, like a demon's face with a bloody smile, how could the Huns have ever seen such a fierce warrior, and they all screamed and retreated.
A giant axe slashed obliquely, Sima Dan saw a tall gray shadow from the afterglow, and for some reason he decided that Ma Ti was killing this person, he stepped forward and avoided this axe, but although the axe was huge, it was extremely flexible, and when it turned, it came straight in, Sima Dan turned around and slashed the axe handle with a horizontal knife, and pulled up a beam of sparks along the axe handle to slash the opponent's wrist.
The giant axe was thrown horizontally at Sima Dan, and the opponent kicked him in the chest, Sima Dan squatted sharply, and the horizontal knife slashed at the opponent's ankle. The opponent's foot hit the left shoulder, but Sima Dan's knife also slashed the enemy's ankle, Sima Dan's left shoulder was in sharp pain, and his hands suddenly felt weak, but he still cut off the opponent's foot from the ankle, and the man screamed and fell on his back.
Sima Dan staggered forward and inserted a knife into the big man, knowing that the Hun big man was tall and long, although he had broken a foot, but he was still calm-headed, he grabbed Sima Dan's wrist with both hands, the knife could not be inserted at once, but it was restrained in mid-air, and he had already seen a knife cut down at the same time at the same time, even if there was a divine armor, he couldn't stop such a wild split.
Sima Dan hurriedly turned over, but his hands were still grabbed by the big man, and this turn still could not be freed, turning into a sword with the middle door wide open and facing the enemy.
The shadow of death is pressed to the chest.
