927、Battle for the City Wall (II)

Soon, with Yang Wanchun's order, a group of more than a dozen Goguryeo archers immediately entered the steps below the city tower, and then wanted to shoot crossbows with the Tang army above the city tower. Because since the Tang army can use this kind of bow and crossbow, they can also use the bow and crossbow to suppress the Tang army, which is also Yang Wanchun's tactic. Therefore, Yang Wanchun is like this, wanting to suppress the enemy with a bow and crossbow, so as to regain an advantage for himself. Once the second batch of Tang troops climbed the city wall, I am afraid that the consequences for them will be very severe.

"It's not good, their archers are coming, get down for me right away!" Dugu Mou shouted.

Soon, the Tang army daredevils immediately lay down on the steps of the city wall, and the Goguryeo archers also came here.

"Whoosh ......"

Bows and crossbows began to be fired, but none of these bows and arrows killed the Tang army. Because this is like a matter of shooting angle, lying on the top of the stairs, and trying to shoot up below, the exposed angle is too small. With such a small angle, it was difficult to hit, so the Goguryeo people did not shoot at the Tang army.

"It's time for us to fight back!" Dugumou said.

"Repeater, shoot!" Dugumou said.

"Kaki Kaki ......"

"Woo Woo Woo Woo ......"

Goguryeo's crossbowmen were immediately shot, and Yang Wanchun was angry and anxious. Because he can also see that this reason why their bows and crossbows are actually used in different ways. For example, in the case of a large crossbow like the Goguryeo, the crossbowman had to stand before he could draw the bow. However, the Tang Army's Zhuge repeater crossbow can be used on its stomach, and the rate of fire is still very high.

If Yang Wanchun was born more than a thousand years ago, he would definitely know that this is actually the difference between a front-loading gun and a rear-loading gun. These large bows and crossbows, in fact, are equivalent to front-loading guns, and they must be pulled away by standing or squatting, otherwise there is no way to pull the bow while lying on their stomachs. And this small Zhuge repeater is like a rear-loading gun. It can be used completely on your stomach, and you can change the crossbow box while lying on your stomach, and then continue shooting.

The Goguryeo people stood and drew their bows, and the exposed area was too large, so it was easy to be shot. However, the Tang army on the top of the city tower not only shot arrows on their stomachs, but because of the angle of the city tower, they were completely in a dead angle state of crossbowmen shooting, and the Goguryeo crossbowmen could not shoot and hit. However, the Tang army above can shoot down very easily, and the Tang army's Zhuge crossbow firepower density is very large, which makes Goguryeo's crossbow soldiers suffer a big loss.

"Damn. How can this place be so narrow! Those who designed the city tower should all be killed! Yang Wanchun looked at the topography of the steps of this city tower, and immediately said angrily.

Under the steps of this tower, there is a turn, and when the Goguryeo people defended, they actually wanted to reduce the chance of enemy attacks. Originally, the purpose of shooting was to prevent the enemy from rushing down from the tower, so a turn was deliberately designed to be beneficial to the next defense of the Goguryeo people. But now this turn has only limited the Goguryeo counterattack, because they can't stand too many archers. Therefore, the firepower density cannot be increased in this case.

These are the Goguryeo people did not expect that the Tang army would have Zhuge Liang's crossbow, and this weapon is very helpful for this situation. Especially those who climb the ladder to the city wall, this kind of close-quarters combat, if there is a weapon with very ferocious firepower. That's certainly pretty good.

On the other side, Jingwen saw that the death squad led by Dugu Mou himself had occupied the city wall, and he knew that this opportunity had come.

"Infantry division, attack it now! Attack to support Dugumou. As long as you attack it, then we can say that it is victory. Jingwen shouted.

"Yes!" Lin Fei, the commander of the infantry division, said.

"Rush!" Lin Fei shouted.

This Lin Fei was also the deputy head of the baggage regiment when Jingwen was in the Snow Shame Army, and later became the division commander under Cheng Yanjin. He defeated Cheng Yanjin during the exercise. This time, he also followed the expedition, and he was still Dugumou's top boss. Now that Dugu Mou rushed up with the death squad and occupied the city wall, as a follow-up force, Lin Fei naturally had to hurry up to support the front and expand the results of the battle. As long as one city gate is captured, it means that the city gate can be opened and a large number of troops can rush into the city, so that the Goguryeo army can be completely destroyed.

"Go up the ladder!"

The rest of the infantry division immediately set up more ladders and began to climb up. Now it is actually similar to a beach landing, the first troops have already seized the city wall, and then the follow-up troops can continue to come up. The longer it drags on, the more advantageous it is for the attacking side. After all, the longer the time, the more soldiers can go up to the city wall to support, and the less advantageous it will be for the defenders. In ancient times, the means of defending the city were mainly based on the city wall to defend it, but once the city wall was breached, once it entered the street battle, it meant that the loss of the city had become inevitable, and they were just trapped in the beast fighting.

"Rush forward!" Yang Wanchun shouted to the soldiers beside him.

And Dugumou, who was on the top of the city tower, also immediately shouted: "Call me, you're welcome." Our reinforcements are coming in no time! ”

It's time for reinforcements to climb the ladder and it will only take a few minutes to get support. This was also the craziest time for the Goguryeo army, because they were facing the loss of the city wall, so they had to work hard to recapture the city wall.

"Don't be stingy with arrows and grenades, smash me! Go down, just hold on for a while! Dugumou shouted.

"Boom ............"

Zhuge began to shoot down hard, and the grenades were all thrown out unceremoniously. The Goguryeo soldiers suffered heavy losses, and although some tried to rely on shields to cover them, these were in vain, because the shield soldiers were no match for grenades. In this kind of small space, with grenades and Zhuge crossbows, this kind of battle has been created. The only pity is that the scope of this combat situation is too small, and it may not be able to use many other cities.

A few minutes later, the soldiers in the back climbed the ladder and began to occupy various parts of the tower.

"General Dugu, your task is complete, leave the rest to us!" Said a soldier of an infantry division.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, I'll go and rest first. It's tiring! Dugu Mou said.

Soon Dugumou began to retreat, and then prepared to take a break. The follow-up soldiers of the infantry division began to occupy the different steps, and then were ready to meet the troops behind to continue the attack. (To be continued......)
