Chapter 416: Stalemate

The rain of arrows covered the sky again, as if covering the sky and the sun, and a large area of black pressure covered all the area in front of the city tower, and the sound of arrows breaking through the air was endless.

"Raise your shield!"

For this kind of counterattack, the officers and soldiers have long had rich experience, and as one of the generals led by them roared, the soldiers at the forefront raised the huge shields in their hands one after another, protecting their entire bodies in it, and thousands of shields formed an impregnable line of defense.

Hearing only a sound of "tuk tuk", those soldiers who raised their shields suddenly felt their arms sink, the impact of an arrow alone was already big enough, and now it was in such a dense situation, so those shield bearers, after advancing a few steps forward in the face of the rain of arrows, the arms holding the shields gradually became numb, but they were all trained, and they still gritted their teeth and continued to move forward, they knew very well that if they dared to stop and rest at this time, You will definitely be shot into a hedgehog by the all-pervasive arrows.

The arrows were constantly blocked by the shield on the ground, and soon, the ground around them was densely covered with arrows.

However, even if there are many shields, there are still gaps in the end, and under the intensive attacks of the thieves, there are still a few unlucky people, who are shot by arrows that rush into the gaps, and fall to the ground screaming, but these unlucky people, compared to the huge number of officials and soldiers, are really not worth mentioning.

Under the cover of the shield, the chariot and the three ladders continued to advance slowly, and soon advanced under the city gate.

A huge ladder leaned against the city walls. A road was built for the officers and soldiers under the city to reach the top of the tower.

After arriving in Daqi, in order to ensure the safety of the ladder pusher. The skilled craftsmen of Daqi learned from the improvement experience of the cloud ladder at the end of the Tang Dynasty. The bottom of the current ladder is designed as a shielded vehicle on all sides, and the outside is reinforced with raw cowhide, and the personnel push the cart in the shed, which can effectively resist the stones and bows thrown by the enemy from the city wall.

Therefore, even though the arrows on the top of the castle tower continued to fly down, they did not cause much casualties to the ladder and the soldiers inside, and the biggest role they could play was to temporarily hinder the speed of the ladder's advancement.

And when it comes to this. Fang Jie also saw that the bows and arrows could no longer cause much damage to the officers and soldiers, so he waved his hand to stop those archers from wasting precious bows and arrows needlessly, and let those officers and soldiers push huge and cumbersome siege equipment to the city.

In fact, Fang Jie didn't have a very good way, although this strong city, although it seemed to be a strong line of defense, blocking the attack from the official army for them, but on the other hand, this city was not a cage. Trapping them inside, they can't carry out an effective attack on the officers and troops in the distance, and they can only passively counterattack after the officers and troops are close.

It can only be said. There is nothing perfect in this world.

After coming to the city, the soldiers with shields ran to the city as fast as possible. Then the shield was raised high, and under their guard. The soldiers who are responsible for operating the truck control the wood on the truck. He slammed into the sturdy gate of Sui'an City.

Rao is city gate was closed tightly, and the city gate was also blocked with dense sandbags and stones, but at the moment when the sassalo wood collided with the city gate, everyone on the city tower still felt a violent vibration, coming from under their feet, making people almost unable to maintain their body shape when they were caught off guard.

Not only that, just as the rushing car began to storm the city gate, the high ladder finally leaned against the city wall, and the officials and soldiers below began to rush towards the city wall.

"Third uncle, I'll leave it to you over there!"

Fang Jie looked at Fang Qifo beside him and whispered to him, Fang Qifo nodded, and then shouted loudly to the sect members around him with a straight face: "Formation, hurry up!" ”

Under the order of Fang Qifo, some of the sect members on the city tower suddenly raised the spears in their hands one after another, in a semicircle, tightly around the three cloud ladders, staring at the soldiers who were constantly rushing up.

For Fang Qifo's ability, Fang Jie was naturally very relieved, and after Fang Qifo began to command, he set his eyes on the rushing car under the city, waved his hand, and then the sect members behind him lifted the wood and stones on the side, and smashed them against the shields under the city.

The huge stones and heavy sassagros, under the acceleration of free fall, burst out with much more terrifying destructive power than the actual weight, and fell on those shields without hindrance, those soldiers holding the shields high, just felt that their hands sank, and the arms that originally supported the shields could no longer be maintained under the huge weight, and the fragile ones broke like hemp rods, and the broken bone stubble pierced the flesh, which was terrifying to watch.

The shield could no longer hold up and slammed down.

The more fortunate ones were stoned to death before they even had time to wail, while the unlucky ones lay on the ground, their arms hanging softly on their bodies, constantly rolling and wailing, but it didn't take long for them to lose their protection and be directly stoned to death by the stones and sasswoods that fell again.

The original large shield defense line was torn apart in an instant, and without the protection of the shield, the soldiers who were manipulating the rushing car were directly exposed directly below, with a spoonful of hot oil or boiling water pouring down on their heads and faces, falling on their bodies, the exposed skin on the outside, became charred and cracked at a speed visible to the naked eye, emitting bursts of flesh fragrance, and the severe pain easily broke their will, and they collapsed to the ground, letting out bursts of miserable screams.

On the ladder, although the soldiers kept rushing up, but in the face of the dense gun forest, they were powerless at all, and soon they were stabbed into a sieve by spears from all directions, even if they counterattacked, they would happen to hurt one or two thieves, but more soldiers, just a little resistance, were stabbed to death, their corpses, like dumplings, continued to fall from the high ladder, falling to the ground, like a ball of abandoned rags.

However, even so, those soldiers were still rushing upwards with their heads, and the look in their eyes was extremely complicated.

In a war of this scale, they are insignificant, no one cares what they think, what thoughts they have in their hearts, whether they are afraid, they have only one mission, that is, Chong Chong!

Bai Qing sat on the horse, looking at everything that happened not far away, and he couldn't see what kind of look was in his eyes......
