Chapter 192: The Ancient Capital of Akanro
At this time, the Great King Cang Manglong was practicing martial arts, and he didn't seem to care about the 100,000 Cheng army outside.
It's just that the military reports that come from time to time still show that his attention is still on military affairs.
"Cheng Jun just blindly bombarded the city wall with boulders, and did not attack?" Putting aside the information that had been sent in, the reckless dragon strode around the study with his hands behind his back.
"Why don't you take the opportunity to attack, because you don't want the soldiers to be damaged?" This reason made Cang Mang Long smile coldly.
"Just hold out for a few more days, Akanro's reinforcements will arrive, and our army and Acanro's army will join forces inside and outside, and see who surrounds whom at this time." With such thoughts, Cang Mang Long naturally had the bottom in his heart.
He knows very well that Yang Qi is a heroic figure, very confident, and he will inevitably have a contemptuous and arrogant attitude.
Cang Manglong quickly ordered: "Pass my order, at this time, mobilize the people, further repair the city wall, and pile huge stones inside the city gate to prevent the enemy from breaking in." There are many bows and crossbows at the city wall, and if there is a place that is broken, more bows and crossbows are immediately sent to prevent the enemy from entering the city, and the people immediately repair them, and the patrol soldiers in the city pay more attention, and if they encounter those who disturb people's hearts, they will be caught in prison. ”
"Yes, my lord." The officers who got the order quickly went out to prepare.
At this time, there are not many pedestrians on the street, and there are still some people who have returned home from working in the liquor store.
And they saw a procession of soldiers going toward the gate.
"Now, when are you going to go back to your respective homes quickly? Don't hang out outside! Seeing that there were still people walking in the street, the general at the head immediately scolded him on his horse.
"We're going back right now, we're going back!" Suddenly there were no more people in the streets except soldiers.
Suddenly, there was a burst of drums, which startled the officer, and this was another signal to attack, and the army immediately became busy.
The man came to the city wall in three steps and two steps, and saw five great trebuchets to the north, and he was so experienced in battle that he immediately judged the signs, and wondered in his heart.
The attack of the Cheng army is very strange, maintaining a certain strength, but there is no real intention to attack, why is this?
The man looked at the haggard faces on the left and right, sighed secretly, and kept these words in his heart, and commanded to be on guard, and let the people who came come come and mend them.
The Cheng army was outside the city, using trebuchets to bombard the city walls again and again. Except for the bombardment of boulders, the attacking and defending sides are relatively immobile.
Almost at the same time, dark clouds hung over the city of Roya, the former capital of Akanro in the south. Under the suddenly cold light, He Beizheng led a large army and engaged in a fierce siege battle.
"Dashuai, this Luoya City is really not easy to fight, you see, the soldiers sent to climb the ladder to enter the city were all shot down with bows. In just this time, our army has lost several hundred people. If this continues, I am afraid that our army will lose too many manpower, which will hinder morale! ”
The military general beside He Bei said, and asked He Bei for his life: "The last general is willing to lead a team of men and horses, which will cover the iron collision machine across the bridge." I will definitely break the enemy door and make a gap for the marshal! Please allow the last general to go! ”
said, waiting for He Bei's order.
He Bei stared at the tragic scene in front of him, his hands tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Yes." ”
"No!" The general immediately took a team of soldiers to escort five iron-clad crashing planes, and with great difficulty, drove through the area where the corpses had accumulated, and headed towards the gate.
"Don't let the Iron Collider come closer! Give Ben will shoot them! The guard on the city wall saw the iron colliding machine that was getting closer and closer, and immediately ordered the archers beside him to gather at the city gate and fire arrows at the group.
"Cover!" Seeing the arrows flying swiftly, the general immediately shouted. Suddenly, the soldiers in the iron sheet of the cart and the rest of the people raised their shields in their hands and stood beside the cart, forming a circle to protect the cart and the people pushing the cart inside.
Under the protection of the shield, the iron collider slowly approached the gate.
And although the moat is wide and deep, it cannot stand the continuous filling of sand and mud into it. As early as the end of the siege, He Bei had already ordered people to fill in a few roads with sandbags.
Therefore, the army fought fiercely under the city.
At first, the city also sent a general to lead the army, but a few days later, the drawbridge was hung high, and no one in the city of Roya, the former capital of Acanro, came out to fight.
He Bei had no choice but to order people to continue the siege.
The county town of Luoya is a big city and the former capital of the Akanro people, and there are many old armies of Acanro, and there are many rolling stones and crossbows in the city, if you want to attack it, it is really not easy.
He Bei successively used a ladder and an arrow cart, which injured many enemies and caused a lot of self-inflicted damage.
The iron collider is covered with iron sheets, with an iron frame inside, which can drive the giant wood to hit the wall, and at this time it was pushed out, and it can be seen that He Bei also used all feasible means to knock out a gap in the city gate.
"Serve the pan!" The people above roared angrily, only to listen to an order, a pot of boiling oil flew out, "splashing", the iron collided with the machine below, and suddenly broke out with the same miserable howl as a beast, steaming all over the sky, and several people with burnt skin and rotten flesh struggled and rolled.
Seeing this scene, He Bei's eyelids jumped in the distance.
The army in the city, the tide generally recedes.
Speaking of which, the general of Luoya City can be regarded as a qualified general, although he retreated after the failure of the stealing camp, he did not mess up, but in the process of retreating, he gradually gathered the remnants of the army, and after leaving some corpses, he retreated to the city.
On the white horse, He Bei held a sharp horse knife in his hand, looked at the city that had closed the gate, and couldn't help but sigh lightly.
In the past seven days, the continuous siege of the city, his own side has been sleepy, but he still has not captured the city, which makes He Bei hold a fire in his heart.
"If I had the rumored megalithic machine to become the king, this city might have been breached long ago, right?" He Bei shook his head and sighed softly.
He Bei's subordinates, there are some generals with good force, but there are not many talented craftsmen, after learning some details of the siege of the Cheng army, He Bei did not think about concocting it according to the law.
But none of the craftsmen he found could make tools that were against the sky.
After cleaning up the battlefield, several generals returned to He Bei's side.
At this time, the generals had gloomy faces, annoyed by the sneak attack this time.
"What about the losses?" He Bei's face was calm, he glanced at his general, and asked calmly.
"Marshal, our casualties are five thousand and three." One of the generals replied, "Basically, it's all over in one guard." ”
"Where's Yishan?" It is the current general of the attacking Acanro.
"There were less than 100 dead and wounded." At the mention of this, the faces of several generals were a little ugly.
"The other party's sneak attack has some skills. Only from the fact that they came on horseback, and there was almost no sound, it can be seen that this man is a careful and prudent man, and that we have been busy for seven days to guard the city, and I have not been wronged. Laughing lightly, He Bei said.
Several generals were a little unconvinced when they heard He Bei praise Yidan, if it weren't for the fact that they had been attacking the city for seven days and resting more at night, they would not have been given a chance to sneak attack.
If you are good, won't you say that you are not as good as this rat?
