**The news of the launch of the general offensive was reported to An Qingxu as soon as possible.

Hundreds of thousands of ** suddenly surrounded and killed from all directions, and were attacking the city gates and sluices in all directions of Luoyang.

"Can you see which gate the enemy's main force is attacking?" An Qingxu asked.

"The enemy's forces are very scattered, and there are a large number of men and horses gathered at the gates of each city, and it is difficult to see that the force is the main force. "Scout recital.

"Which city gate did Li Siye's Xuanjia army attack?" Cui Qianyou asked.

"Upper East Gate. ”

"Hahahaha, good, good, good, the time has come for the generals to make contributions. Fighting—"

"My emperor is mighty, leveling the Tang Dynasty, and the Great Yan is unified. ”

Everyone sang the slogan and immediately went to their respective stations to meet the **.

It turned out that as early as the night of the first two days, Guo Ziyi and Li Mi quietly mobilized all the ** stationed in Luoyang Quartet to the woods and villages within five miles outside the city.

In a moment, ** launched a general attack, and the overwhelming ** soldiers, pushing ladders, siege vehicles, wall-breaking vehicles, knife carts and other ordnance baggage, poured from all directions like a tide to the various city gates, sluices, and the topography of each section of the city wall.

The entire Luoyang City was suddenly drowned out by the shouts and killings of the Tang Dynasty's morale swallowing mountains and seas.

The rebels defending the city were all frightened, and after a while, they were scolded by the prison guards, and one by one they trembled and drew their bows and shot arrows.

Speaking of Li Siye alone, in the blink of an eye, he led 5,000 Xuanjia troops to rush to the upper east gate, holding high the shield to form a defensive formation, and constantly pushing the siege vehicles to hit the heavy city gate.

"Open-"

"Open-"

"Open-"

The arrogant soldiers shouted majestically.

"Boom-"

"Boom-"

"Boom-"

A ram made of thick logs smashed madly on the heavy city gate, making a roar that shattered the liver and gall.

With Zhang Jiwu's men and horses as the internal response, it didn't take long to capture the Upper East Gate, so the Xuanjia army came to kill in one go, without making half a reservation.

The sound of rushing and killing lasted for half an hour, and according to the plan, Zhang Jiwu's men and horses should have opened the city gate a long time ago.

However, instead of opening the city gates, the rebels stationed at the head of the city gathered more and more, becoming more and more fierce and fierce, and the hot oil of the rolling wood and stones and cauldrons continued to counterattack.

The archers stepped back and suppressed the rolling wood and oil pots at the head of the city. ”

Seeing that the soldiers couldn't support it, Li Siye hurriedly dispatched a team of sharpshooters, and bursts of dense arrows rained down on the city to cover the soldiers who broke the door.

"Scout, report back to the Shuai camp, there are changes in the city, Zhang Jiwu has not opened the city gate for a long time. ”

Li Siye was a little anxious, and once the army was frustrated, it must adjust its tactics in time, otherwise it would be easy to be countered by the enemy.

"Take back the siege engines. ”

"Set up a ladder. ”

The rest of the men and horses all stepped back, and the arrows rained down. ”

The 1,000 Xuanjia Army, who were good at climbing, immediately changed to the cloud ladder to kill the city, and the remaining 4,000 soldiers all changed to a squatting and shooting formation, and the arrow rain shot towards the city head in waves, intending to suppress the enemy's new force defending the city.

"Forcible taking. ”

In less than a stick of incense, the scout returned, and Guo Ziyi's answer was only two words - forcible taking.

Ha ha. Lao Li followed General Gao Xianzhi in the Western Regions for half his life, and fought in more than 100 battles, but there was no easy battle, but under the command of Marshal Guo, he never let go of his arms and fought for a long time.

Gao Xianzhi and Guo Ziyi are also good at strategy, but the difference is that Gao Xianzhi takes offense as defense and kills to seek peace. Guo Ziyi strives to maintain the best vitality, make full use of the time and place, and seek the greatest victory with the smallest sacrifice.

At this time, Guo Ziyi ordered a strong attack, which was a last resort.

Li Siye also knew in his heart that this time it was the general attack of the coalition forces of the Nine Roads Jiedu, and the Upper East Gate that he was responsible for was the key to this big battle, no matter what happened in the city, the Upper East Gate must be taken.

"Stone-thrower—"

Li Siye shouted, and suddenly a team of soldiers pushed three stone throwers.

"Tank preparation. ”

"Target Gate - Launch. ”

Dozens of specially made pots of earthenware with big bellies and small mouths, filled with fire oil, were thrown at the city gates.

The clay pot shattered, and the fire oil was suddenly spilled on the city gate, which was also very viscous after special refining, and in a few moments, the entire city gate was covered with thick fire oil.

"Rocket—"

Li Siye commanded Ruoding, and the whistling rocket ignited the huge city gate, and suddenly the fire was bursting, and the black smoke rising vigorously made the soldiers defending the city cry out in pain.

The hot oil dumped by the enemy on the city wall was also ignited by the fire at this time, and the fire continued to spread towards the city, and the two sides avoided the erupting tongues of fire while looking for opportunities to slash and kill, and the battle became more and more fierce.

The gates are so heavy that they can't be burned out in a moment.

Li Siye instructed the stone throwers to continue to smash the oil canisters at the city gate, fueling the fire, and at the same time smashed some huge stones over, intending to destroy the structure and texture of the wooden gate, so that the oil could penetrate the deep layers of the wooden gate and accelerate the combustion and carbonization.

The brutality of the battle makes one lose track of time.

Guo Ziyi's handsome order came again - the Upper East Gate must be conquered within half an hour.

"Damn-"

Li Siye immediately handed over the Mo knife to a guard, and let people carry over a door-breaking axe, which was cast by Li Siye in his early years, and the axe head and axe handle were integrated, weighing more than 300 catties.

"Hundred-man shield formation, cover me. ”

Immediately, a hundred Xuanjia soldiers raised their shields to form a tortoiseshell formation, covering Li Siye to kill under the city gate again.

Li Siye withstood the raging flames, held the iron axe high, and used the power of the mountain and the earth around his body, and slashed it on the city gate at once, shaking the front city gate with a roar, and the bricks and stones on his head fell.

After about 100 times, the three-inch-thick city gate was already mottled like a honeycomb, and more than a dozen holes appeared.

"Open-"

Li Siye clenched the iron axe, rounded his arm and suddenly pulled it out.

"Boom-"

"Ahh

The heavy city gate shattered with a loud bang, but due to the excessive force, the huge shock also caused Li Siye's old wounds from the battle against the Nine Dragons Soul Devouring Array to crack, and blood gushed out.

The medical officer hurriedly stepped forward and pounced on Li Siye with gold sore medicine and bandaged the wound.

Another Xuanjia sergeant used a Mo knife to pick open all the remaining pieces of wood in the city gate and clear the barricades.

"Shield-rush-" Li Siye shouted.

The 4,000 Xuanjia army was cut off to respond, and the 1,000 Xuanjia army immediately rushed in with Li Siye.

This is the urn city of the Upper East Gate.

The so-called urn city, the whole is like a pottery urn in general, it is in the city gate, and a city gate is repaired, the city wall is connected between the two city gates, forming an absolutely closed space, the city wall is surrounded by ambush archers, rolling wood and stones, whether it is the other party breaking through the city gate, or the defender deliberately opens the city gate to lure the enemy deep, once entering the urn city, it is difficult to live.

The Xuanjia army spread their shields and formed the strongest tortoiseshell formation to rush into the urn city, which blocked the rain of arrows and rolling wood and stones of the rebels.

As soon as the enemy's rolling wood and stones were exhausted, the Xuanjia archers continued to shoot arrows from inside the shield array to kill the soldiers defending the city on all sides.

The war drums outside the city rumbled, and Guo Ziyi ordered a second wave of general attack, which greatly contained the enemy, and the defenders on the urn city gradually collapsed, and there was no way to help.

A scout noticed that there was something wrong in the city, and immediately listened to the truth with his ear, "General, there is a sound of fighting in the city." ”

"What? The sound of fighting? Zhang Jiwu, that old boy, did you bring someone to answer now? Seeing that grandpa entered the city, he didn't spank him. ”

"Back to the general, there seems to be a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides of the fight, it seems, it seems-"

"What does it look like? The military plane matters, you look like a bird, say it quickly. ”

"It seems like there are only one or two people fighting the rebel brigade. ”

"What?"

Someone who responds alone, presumably at this time must be in great danger.

"The ladders, the rope ladders, all for me to attack the city. Li Siye commanded.

It took a certain amount of time to burn the city gate, and it was too late, although I didn't know what the situation was at the city gate, so I still stepped up the attack.

The urn city is not big, and a thousand Xuanjia troops rushed in, which has become narrow.

More than 100 ladders, plus rope ladders, the two city walls are almost covered with siege **, under the intensive attack, soon there are Xuanjia soldiers to kill the city.

Li Siye brandished the Mo knife, climbed the rope ladder, followed by the head of the city, the big knife danced wildly, cut down dozens of rebels one after another, and a bloody road went straight to the back of the city gate tower.

Below the city, hundreds of rebels were surrounding one person.

The man couldn't make out his appearance, his face was covered with blood, and the whole body was bloody, and the corpses of the rebels under his feet were piled higher and higher, and the rebels who surrounded him became more and more crazy.

It seems that the man planned to kill the city to help ** open the city gate.

What a bloody and brave man dares to fight alone with the strength of one person.

Li Siye couldn't help but admire it in his heart, and immediately went down the trail to kill the general and relieve the siege with that person.

"Hahahaha, little brother, hold on, my old Li Laiye-"

Li Siye's knife flew over, slashing horizontally and vertically, and the rebels who stood in the way fell one by one, with stumps and corpses all the way.

"General—look—" shouted the protective guard.

"Ahh

Li Siye exclaimed.

Attention has been paid to the hero who fought the rebels, but he did not find dozens of corpses hanging high not far away.

"Rebel Brother Shuhan"

"Traitor Zhang Jiwu"

"Traitor Zhang Haitang"

......

Each corpse was covered with a long white cloth with their names written in large black letters.

Depending on the situation, these people were killed and hung here.

Ge Shuhan, who was taken captive by his generals and took refuge in An Lushan after the loss of Tongguan, and more than a dozen people behind him, almost all of whom were captured by An Lushan when he captured Luoyang and Chang'an, were also killed at this moment.

And Zhang Jiwu, it seems that the news of his defection to ** has leaked, so he was killed.

Could it be—

Oh, the enemy is going to do it. I don't know what kind of intrigue lies behind it.

Did he betray him?

Anyway, kill—

Li Siye opened the Mo knife, like a big windmill stirring autumn leaves, a piece of corpses fell down with a sweep of the knife, and seven or eight rebels died with a backhand knife, and there were half-pulled heads, entire arms, and half-cut bodies everywhere, splashing blood mist all over the sky.

"General Lee, be careful. "The bloody man who fought the rebels alone, saw the Mo knife flying, and knew that it was Li Siye, the Tang Mo knife general, who was coming, and immediately shouted.

Female?

Li Siye continued to rush forward while slashing people, this voice is a woman, I can't imagine that there is such a bloody woman in the world, I really don't want our old Li.

"General Lee, be careful. The woman cried out again.

Li Siye knew that it was not good, and only then did he find that there were rebel crossbowmen in ambush around him, and he was eyeing them fiercely.
