On June 5, the Mauryan army had a new movement.

The 700,000 army, leaving 500,000 to defend the position, the remaining 200,000 troops moved to the northernmost border city of the Hetao Province, Naiga City.

Three days later, the army had drained the siege of Naiga.

As soon as he arrived, the Peacock King did not hesitate at all, and immediately summoned 250,000 royal city forbidden troops to help in the battle, so that the entire 450,000 army was hunting a small border city.

The city defense of Naiga City is not as good as that of Pompin City, and it is the Fifth Army of the Longxiang Army that is stationed here. In view of the fact that the commander of the legion, Xiao Chaogui, was born in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the legion was also the first legion of the Longxiang Army to become a musketeer.

Even so, it can't stop the vast enemy army.

The military order given by Bai Qi was: "Hold on for two days, reinforcements will come!" ”

…………

Nega City, the head of the city.

Xiao Chaogui stood bravely at the head of the city, looking at the dense white tents outside the city, his expression was extremely solemn, the Fifth Army faced more than six times the enemy's army, with such a fragile city defense as Naiga City, it was not easy to hold it for two days.

But the military order has been issued, no matter how difficult it is, Xiao Chaogui must resolutely implement it.

"Ordered all the troops that there was no retreat option in this battle, only to defend to the end. If you can't hold it, you will live and die with Naga City. Xiao Chaogui's voice was calm, but the military orders issued were very solemn.

"No!"

The herald looked equally solemn and quickly turned away.

…………

Outside the city, in the camp tent of the Chinese army.

The Peacock King stood on a high ground, also looking at the city of Naiga not far away, and he noticed that the dragon army standing on the city wall was at its peak, and even in the face of the siege, there was still no fear at all.

"It is rumored that the Long Xiang Army under the rule of Bai Qi, the god of killing in Great Xia, is a group of hell butchers who kill people without blinking, and now it seems that what they said is indeed true." The Peacock King praised his enemies like this.

When the surrounding generals heard this, their expressions were obviously unconvinced, but they didn't dare to refute.

When it comes to the Peacock Dynasty, the most famous military branch must be the well-known war elephant troops, which are even stronger than the war elephant troops of the Shang Dynasty, and they are terrifying on the battlefield.

Unfortunately, in the siege battle, the war elephants could play a very small role, so the Peacock King only brought a small number of war elephants for the final attack on the city gates.

The Peacock King seemed to feel the mood of the generals behind him, and after a moment of conversation, he said with a smile: "Even if they are the butchers of hell, they will not be able to escape the punishment of Lord Shiva, and it is time for them to see the power of the Peacock army." ”

Speaking of this, the Peacock King suddenly turned around and said in a loud voice: "Who wants to be a pioneer? ”

"The last will go!"

The generals couldn't bear it for a long time, and they asked for battle one by one.

In the eyes of the generals, besieging a small border city with such a large army is not a battle, and acting as a vanguard means winning the first battle.

No general can resist such a temptation.

The Peacock King nodded in satisfaction, and his gaze finally rested on a young general at the front, "Kargil, it's up to you to fight!" ”

"Yes!"

Kargil looked up in surprise, this is also a famous Tianzhu historical general, known for his bravery.

When the other generals saw this, they were jealous.

The Peacock King was not appeased, turned around again, looked at the city in the distance, and was silently distracted.

When the generals saw this, they took their leave very interestingly, and they knew very well that the king had a strange temperament and liked to emulate the historical Ashoka.

Soon, Kargil led his troops out of the camp and lined up outside the city.

The drums of war were beating, and the yellow sand was all over the sky.

It was in such an unnamed border town that the first large-scale war of the National War broke out, and the Mauryan army, led by the young general Kargil, roared and slaughtered the city walls.

They saw not bloody killings, but great military exploits.

However, the idea is good, but the reality is very cruel, the first wave of counterattacks of the Fifth Legion of the Longxiang Army defeated the Mauryan army.

First round after round of artillery, then the roar of bed crossbows, and finally the crisp volley of muskets, each round of attack is harvesting countless lives.

The power of the firearms unit is really terrifying.

Because of the limitations of manufacturing technology, the armor of the Mauryan Dynasty army is inferior to that of the Great Xia Army, and it is even weaker in the face of such a firearm attack.

The army that charged at high speed fell in rows like wheat.

The army of the Mauryan Dynasty is also brave, and under such a fierce attack, it still rushes forward desperately, and it is very heroic to see death as home.

Finally rushed to the front, and killing weapons such as fire oil, rolling wood, and stones were waiting for them.

Seeing that the troops were frustrated, Kargil's expression in the rear did not fluctuate at all, the first wave of attack was a tentative attack, and all the people sent were cannon fodder, that is, the forbidden army of Wangcheng.

The purpose is to test the city's defense system.

"Hey, pretty well prepared." Kargil was indifferent on the surface, but he still subconsciously tightened it in his heart, he didn't expect that the Long Xiang Army, which was hurriedly stationed, would have such firepower.

Especially the salvo of muskets, which made Cargil very jealous.

"Go on!"

Fear is fear, but temptation continues.

The 250,000 forbidden troops of the Royal City who were summoned by the Peacock King this time are not the best cannon fodder.

Under Kargil's "heart of stone", one after another troops were sent to the front, not giving the defending troops any respite at all, and after a long time, the firepower network of the Longxiang army was somewhat unable to hold up.

Although the P1 gun has been improved, the barrel heating is still inevitable and cannot be fired for a long time; The same is true of muskets, the barrel of which is already hot and hot, and it is very difficult to even reload.

In addition, materials for defending the city, such as stones and rolling logs, are decreasing at a rate visible to the naked eye because of the short time and limited amount of hoarding, and it seems that they will not last long.

Xiao Chaogui didn't expect that the enemy army would be so fearless of death, regardless of casualties, "It's really a group of outlaws, but the commander has a problem for me." ”

"There's no way, I can only fight hard!"

Seeing that the situation was gradually deteriorating, Xiao Chaogui immediately ordered to stop throwing materials such as fire oil and stones, and leave them for reuse at the critical moment. The artillery and firearms units were also temporarily extinguished, allowing the second team to pick up.

At this moment, the firepower network suddenly weakened.

Cargil in the distance saw it, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I thought it was tough, it seems that it is nothing more than that, give the order, let the trebuchet follow." ”

"Yes!"

Seeing that the defenders at the head of the city were weak, Kargil decisively threw in the siege weapons, and one after another trebuchets were pushed to the front line, throwing huge stones at the head of the city.

Without artillery containment, trebuchets are simply siege weapons, pouring fire on the city with impunity. The walls, which were not very strong, were crumbling under the attack of a large number of trebuchets.

"The siege force keeps up!"

Kargil followed the order and sent out the real trump card, and he had already seen the hope of taking Naiga City in a battle, and his face inevitably turned a little flushed.

Elite troops rode the siege ladder and roared towards the city walls.

The real fight has just begun.

Under the fierce bombardment of the trebuchet, the face of the Long Xiang army did not change, and the enemy's seemingly fierce attack only caused damage to the city wall, but the damage to them was very limited.

Seeing the enemy army rushing towards the city, the soldiers of the Long Xiang Army showed a cruel smile one by one, pulled out the Tang knife that was polished on their waists, and their eyes were as cold as ice.

They want to show the enemy what a butcher of hell is.
