283. The coalition forces attacked the city
PS: Ask for subscriptions and tips.
The allied troops and horses under the city once again stepped up their offensive, and there were trebuchets to open the way, and the pressure on the head-on charge was indeed much less, and then, more than a dozen crashing vehicles also braved the rain of arrows, slowly running over the moat.
The crash car was so heavy that the wooden planks on the moat were impassable, so it was a bloody road paved with his life that allowed the crash car to successfully approach the city gate.
War is so cruel, for the sake of the purpose, hundreds of thousands of lives, in an instant, silently taken away by God, although their death is not worthless, but the death is a little aggrieved.
On the moat, it was already full of the corpses of the coalition soldiers and horses, and a disgusting smell of blood permeated, and some wild small fish in the river were infected by this smell of blood.
Nearly 200,000 coalition troops, one after another, a cloud ladder are hung full of people, looking from afar, unusually spectacular, in addition to the stones thrown in the air, more beneficial to the state of the archers to help, a sharp arrow shuttled down, for suppressing the offensive on the city wall, also has a great effect.
The supreme commanders of the armies who supported the flag in the rear and looked at them were all solemn, and now, the siege battle has started for an hour, two hours, nearly 200,000 coalition troops and horses have been dispatched, but they have not even touched the head of the city, and the defense of Zhuo County is so strong that Yuan Tan, Zhang Renwen, and Yan Xing are frowning.
"Shoot these grandchildren."
The Golden Million let out a roar of rage, and despite the threat of the incessant trebuchet, the defenders on the towers still risked having their heads broken. Archery and log throwing continued. Especially the rolling logs. Hundreds of roots will have a great impact on the besieging coalition troops.
There was no shortage of arrows on the city tower, and after the defensive line was closed, the resources of each army and horse were integrated, and the armament was more than enough.
Waves of arrows rained down mercilessly, and the edge of the city wall was already full of stones, rolling logs, and corpses, and the ground was full of them. Among them, the proportion of corpses is the largest, overlapping, stacked, three or four meters high, as far as the eye can see, except for the scattered rolling wood and stones, there are only the soldiers of the coalition army who have been stuck with arrows or their heads have been smashed into flowers, of course, there are also a few defenders who have fallen off the city wall.
There were more than 20,000 people. For more than an hour, soldiers and horses on both sides. There were so many dead in the battle, and among them, the casualties of the besieging side were even heavier.
"It seems that it is difficult to climb the city wall in a short time by relying on the ladder alone, and the city is heavily guarded, so we still have to find other ways." Wen Ping frowned and said in a deep voice.
"How? What else can be done? Yuan Tan's eyes looked gloomily at the coalition soldiers and horses who were still blocked by the city wall, and his tone was a little condensed.
"There's a plan down there." At this time, Yan Xing, who was the youngest of the four, suddenly spoke.
When Yuan Tan, Zhang Ren, and Wenping heard this, they hurriedly looked at Yan Xing.
Seeing these three people coming and going, Yan Xing smiled and said: "Junior brother has observed, the sand and soil around here are easy to mine, it is better to transfer 10,000 troops to the vicinity to transport some soil, pile up on the side of the city wall into a hill, and our coalition soldiers and horses rush up along the sand mound to kill it, it must be much smoother than the ladder." ”
"Good idea."
Yuan Tan and Wenpin Zhang Ren's eyes were shining, but when they saw the nominal supreme commander Yuan Tan smiled and said, "In this way, we will attack the city according to Yanming's method." ”
Zhang Ren and Wen Ping also had no opinion, nodded slightly, Yuan Tan saw this, waved the command flag in his hand, the offensive of the coalition army slowed down, and rode out, carrying Yuan Tan's password, within a moment, the 10,000 soldiers and horses of the coalition army slowly retreated under the gaze of Jin Million.
After a short pause, the remaining 100,000 allied troops launched a fierce attack again, and the trebuchet's offensive had slowed down, not for anything else, just because the dozen or so cold bed crossbows on the head of the city were only two or three waves of offensives, and they shot the trebuchets dozens of paces away.
Without the threat of trebuchets, the tiger and wolf on the city tower were even more ferocious, and the vegetable oil was tumbling and pouring down, and the hissing oil smoke made the pores shrink.
The hundreds of thousands of allied troops besieging the city screamed again and again, the war was so ruthless, every second, there were bright red lives scattered, and on the ground, there were not only corpses and blood, but also the smell of scalded meat.
"Break through Zhuo County, everyone will be promoted to the next level, and a jar of fine wine will be awarded."
Seeing that their offensive had softened, the four soldiers and horses of the warlord team immediately shouted loudly, and Yuan Tan Zhang Renwen hired Yan Xing's brother-in-law to issue rewards, intending to arouse the enthusiasm of the soldiers.
"Capture a million gold alive, promote to the third level, reward a thousand taels of gold, and ten jars of fine wine."
In this era, one or two gold can make ordinary people live a nourishing life for several months, not to mention a thousand taels, that is, some wealthy businessmen who have accumulated for decades may not have so much money, not to mention that most of the soldiers in the army are from poor backgrounds, not to mention a thousand taels, I am afraid that they have never even had one or two taels.
The sound of breathing and panting, the so-called wealth can urge people to die, and a thousand taels of gold are enough to make this group of poor and frightened coalition soldiers crazy.
"Yuan Jizhou's shot is really generous, a thousand taels of gold, but even the next is a little red." Zhang Ren looked at Yuan Tan, who waved a thousand taels of gold without the slightest hesitation, and said with a light smile.
"Hehe" Yan Xing, the youngest, also smiled: "Jizhou is rich, and Yuan Jizhou is naturally generous." ”
When Yuan Tan heard this, he smiled indifferently and said: "This person is a fierce general under Yuan Shang, who was born and died, if he can be captured alive or killed, what about a thousand taels of gold?" It's 10,000 taels of gold, and Benshu doesn't say anything. ”
Wen Ping looked at the erect fat figure on the city wall from afar, and said indifferently: "Yuan Jizhou attaches so much importance to the golden million, that guy should feel glorious even if he dies." ”
"Ha Lu Ha." Yuan Tan smiled loudly.
Yuan Tan and the others laughed unscrupulously, but the golden million in Zhuoxian County was angry, and he kept scolding in his mouth, even Xu You, who gradually had blood on his face, couldn't stand it anymore.
"Grandson, that group of grandsons who have been stabbed by a thousand knives." The tone of the golden million seemed to be taken advantage of.
"Is Lao Tzu worth a thousand taels of gold?" The bronzing hammer in Jin Million's hand smashed the battlements.
"One thousand taels of gold, I'll circle your uncle, one thousand taels is not enough to please a good daughter-in-law, these bastards, they have to be shameless, they belittle me so much, it's really annoying to me." Jin Million screamed, the angry look on his face, the fat on his cheeks, shook and shook very cute.
Some lieutenant-level lieutenants around Jin Million couldn't cry or laugh, and the offensive under the city became more and more turbulent, but the boss was calculating the value, this mentality, compared to their group of lieutenant generals with heavy hearts, was definitely a lot stronger, and they were happy in the bitterness, which was such an exaggerated word by many lieutenant generals about Jin Million.
It's just that what they don't know is that the golden million is really angry this time, and they are angry by the value of one thousand taels, this guy is a local tyrant, a real local tyrant, more luxurious than Yuan Shang, the pair of bronzing double hammers in his hand are at least three or four thousand taels of gold, and the cost alone is far more than the value of one thousand taels, and the one thousand taels of gold given by Yuan Tan in his eyes can't even buy his fat body.
Suddenly, he saw Jin Million grab Xu You's shoulder, and said angrily: "Old Xu, you say, are these Yuan Tan people bullying, do you want to rush out of the gang to fight with him?" Bastard lamb, you are a poop, a thousand taels, and you dare to ask for Lao Tzu's life even a thousand taels, isn't this an insult? One thousand taels of gold, it's almost the same as buying yours, don't you say? ”
Jin Million's pair was like a vice, locking Xu You to death, Xu You struggled hard, but he couldn't break free, so he had to smile helplessly: "Lao Jin, are you belittling yourself or scolding me?" Will it be chatting? ”
When Jin Million heard this, he smiled and said: "Just kidding, I see that everyone is nervous, in the words of the lord, that is entertainment and entertainment, find some fun for everyone, you see, everyone's faces are much soothed, and the goal is achieved." ”
"." Xu Yu shouted angrily, ignoring the demeanor of the penchant and kicking the golden million.
More than 20 captain-level generals near Jin Million were embarrassed, and turned their heads helplessly, this look, it was really fatal, more than 10,000 coalition soldiers carrying sand and soil had already begun to pile sand piles on the side of the city wall.
Jin Million also saw it, his eyes froze, the hippie smile on his face dissipated, and he said in a deep voice: "Follow the emperor of the year? ”
"Let them come up, come one, kill one." Jin Million said with a murderous face.
Suddenly, more than 20,000 elite veterans on the city tower put down their bows and arrows, drew a handful of weapons, and the killing machine lingered, staring coldly at the coalition army who thought they had found a good opportunity to enter the city. (To be continued......)
