The Beichen army ravaged the northern territory of the Shalu Kingdom for several days, causing countless people of the Shalu Kingdom to flee to the capital. The Beichen army then covered up, and millions of troops instantly besieged the city. Because a large number of people gathered near the capital, and the Beichen army besieged the city, the monarch of Shalu had no choice but to put many people into the city.

In fact, the monarch of Shalu Kingdom was originally reluctant to let the people outside the city enter the city, because there was not much food and grass in the city, and it was impossible to feed so many people. There were originally a million soldiers and more than 400,000 inhabitants in the capital. But the grain and grass are only 1,230,000 stones, which can ensure that the inhabitants of the city can drink and the army can eat for three months. Now it's good, more than 100 people gathered outside the city have entered the city, and it would be good if the grain and grass in the city could be eaten for a month.

Previously, the monarch of the Shalu Kingdom had also discussed this matter with his ministers, and also made a plan not to let the people enter the city. It's just that the lower-ranking officers and millions of soldiers in the army are not happy. The big guys are all strong men recruited from this northern land, and their hometowns are all in Jiangbei. Now that the Beichen Army has come over and is wreaking havoc on his hometown, he can't go out of the city to fight, which is already sorry for the villagers.

Now that countless hometown people have fled to the capital, none of the soldiers in a group of soldiers are related to their families. The king's order that the people should not be allowed to enter the city immediately aroused the anger of millions of soldiers. In order to respond to your call, the king, let's join the army to protect the villagers and elders from the scourge of the Beichen army. Originally, when the Beichen Army ravaged the Northland, the big guy was holding back a breath of anger in his heart. Now the villagers fled to him, but he did not let them enter the city.

If they do this, the villagers outside the city will definitely be slaughtered by the Beichen Army. In the future, even if his side wins, after returning to his hometown, he will have to face countless cold eyebrows. It doesn't matter if that result is not to be fought, and it is better if this war is not fought.

As a result, there was a scene in the country that had not been seen in the world for a thousand years. Countless soldiers stayed in the barracks, and their weapons and armor were all in the open space outside the barracks. Then, many soldiers slept honestly in their tents, not asking about the world. This is true even for the soldiers who patrol and guard the walls and gates on a daily basis.

The army is on strike!

If someone told Xiao Chen that the army would also strike, Xiao Chen would definitely not believe it. How could those bastards strike, if they weren't happy, they would just rebel. Why are you still idle and have nothing to do to strike, see who is unhappy and just go over with a knife, simple and trouble-free.

But now this is the case, and the million-strong army stationed in the capital of Sharu has gone on strike. When he first heard the news, the monarch of Sharu thought that his subordinates were joking with him. But when he came to the barracks, he was completely convinced of the great act of the army and the strike.

Immediately, the monarch of Sharu immediately responded to the wishes of the soldiers and let hundreds of people outside the city enter the city. When a large number of people slowly entered the city through the city gates, the millions of soldiers began their work for a new day. Although the big guy's actions are very sorry for the king, everyone is happy. Especially when the people who knew each other thanked them for saving their lives, a sense of glory rose in their hearts, and then they found their biggest dream when they joined the army.

However, the monarch of Shalu is not happy, what is this doing? Are those soldiers stupid, there is not much food and grass in the city, and it could have lasted for three months. Now it is estimated that it will be two months, which is very good, and it may not even be able to bear it for a month. But when I think about it, if I don't let the people into the city, I may not be able to carry it for a few days.

After that, the monarch of the Sharu Kingdom began to think about the big problem of resources again. Now there is not only a shortage of food in the city, but also a shortage of dry firewood. Sharu City is located in the plains, and in addition to being the capital, there are no woods in the city at all. There are some outside the city, and in the past, the people in the city just had no firewood at home and went to cut some outside the city.

But now it's not going to work, now the millions of troops of the Beichen Army are already twenty miles outside the city. Because there was no timber around, some troops of the Beichen Army had already gone to the woods outside the city to cut wood. In addition, they also need a lot of firewood for heating and cooking, and it is estimated that in less than two days, the trees outside the city will be cut down by 10,000. You must know that the Beichen Army is 1 million people, and the firewood consumed every day is definitely not a few.

But this move of the Beichen Army can be regarded as worrying about the monarch of Shalu Kingdom, because the city also needs a lot of dry firewood for heating and cooking. It's winter, and there is no dry firewood, so it is estimated that many people can freeze to death. Now the Beichen army is cutting wood outside the city, and the troops in the city dare not go out, and the Beichen army can't wait to fight with themselves in the field.

Alas~ distressed!

In the majestic camp of the Beichen Army, Xiao Chen was also worried, with a sad face. Running outside the camp every day, looking at the giant beast lying in the distance, Xiao Chen had a headache. The walls are twenty meters high and nearly ten meters thick, and there are millions of troops stationed in the city. This Nima is completely a turtle shell, and he can't fight at all.

In such a tall city, the Beichen Army has only fought once so far. The previous three levels and the like are nothing in front of this city. At that time, it was also the capital of beating people, and the troops stationed in the city were also millions of troops.

That time, the Beichen army attacked the capital of the Uzi Kingdom, which can be described as a heavy loss. After fighting for more than ten days in a row, and finally breaking through the city, it was found that the soldiers of the Beichen Army who fell under the city had reached two or three hundred thousand. It was also the heaviest siege battle in the history of the Beichen Army.

Well, now there is another such city in front of him, but Xiao Chen is a little worried this time. The reason why they were able to capture the capital of the Uzi Kingdom was that the preparations of the Uzi State were not sufficient, and most of their garrison materials were gathered in the two cities in front. In the capital, there were not many Uzi at all, and two or three hundred thousand soldiers of the Beichen Army were killed and wounded.

Xiao Chen really didn't dare to imagine how many soldiers the Beichen Army needed to fill in in front of the well-prepared Shalu National City.

After the flood, the Beichen army has lost nearly three million troops. If there are heavy losses in the siege battle this time, the Beichen Kingdom will not mention the revenge of the Sun Never Setting Country.

What should I do now, there is no way to use the strategy. People can't live or die in the city, and it is clear that they want to defend the city. In this case, it is undoubtedly the worst news for the Beichen Army.

Yue Fei and the others also had no way at all, and in desperation, the Beichen army had no choice but to launch a tentative siege for the time being. After all, even if a million army is surrounded outside the city, doing nothing, and sleeping every day is not a solution. Beichen Kingdom doesn't have so much grain and grass now, so let the Beichen army waste it.

The tentative siege intensity was not high, and Xiao Chen only sent 200,000 troops to launch an attack. Although it is a tentative attack, it is necessary to do our best to force out the strength of the enemy. Therefore, the thousands of catapults of the Beichen Army still took the lead in attacking, as if they were starting to storm the city.

The commander of the army of Shalu Kingdom, after seeing the siege posture of the Beichen Army, thought that the Beichen Army wanted to take the city in one go. After all, it was not for nothing that the Beichen Army captured an enemy city in one go. In order to prevent the Beichen army from rushing directly to the city wall in one go, the commander carried out an all-out counterattack with great interest. Anyway, as long as he repels the attack of the Beichen Army, he will be able to get the praise of his own king.

As for whether it will reveal the full strength of the city, he doesn't care. It was the Beichen Army that was besieging the city in front of him, not an ordinary army of a small country. I don't know how much stronger the combat effectiveness of the people is than the troops under his command, and it is estimated that the siege battle can take advantage of the meaning, that is, God and his old man are taking care of themselves.

Nearly 1,000 catapults deployed in the city also began to counterattack under the orders of the commander-in-chief. So, before the real siege battle began, the two sides started a catapult battle. The catapults of the Beichen army began to aim at the city wall, in order to try to smash down part of the city wall and increase the advantage of the infantry attacking later. Thousands of boulders crashed into the city wall one after another, only causing a shaking of the city wall, and did not cause any major damage at all.

After that, the catapults in the city began to fight back. More than 1,000 boulders flew towards the location of the catapult of the Beichen Army. Suddenly, dozens of catapults were destroyed, and no small number of casualties were caused. In this way, the catapult troops also discovered the threat of the enemy's catapults, and then let them fall down like this, and before the Beichen army smashed down the city wall, the monuments catapult troops were wiped out.

Afterwards, nearly 3,000 catapults began to smash towards the place where the boulders flew in the city. However, because of the shelter of the tall city wall, the bombardment of the Beichen army did not get too good results. On the contrary, the catapults in the city, with the soldiers on the city walls specifying the coordinates, attacked very accurately. Almost every wave of stones will cause dozens of casualties to the Beichen army.

However, this did not break the will to fight of the catapults of the Beichen Army. You must know that there are 3,000 catapults on your side, and they cover an area of dozens of square kilometers just by arranging them together. If this is the case, they will be beaten away by a thousand catapults in the city, and then the catapult troops will not have to mix in the future.

Although there is no accurate coordinate guidance, the catapult unit of the Beichen Army has a wealth of experience. According to the position of the flying boulders in the enemy's city, the Beichen army still hit the catapult in the city many times. Shaluguo has set up more than a dozen catapult positions in the city, which can strike at the advancing Beichen army from all sides. But because of the fierce counterattack of the catapults of the Beichen army, three catapult positions have now been destroyed. Of course, in order to destroy these catapults, the Beichen Army also paid a lot of price.

More than 500 catapults were lost, and this is the result of the catapults shelling each other for dozens of minutes. Of course, the battle is not over yet, but the infantry of the Beichen Army who are preparing to attack the city are a little impatient. Originally, the big guy was arranged to carry out a tentative attack on the city, although it was only tentative, but the soldiers of the Beichen Army did not think so in their hearts. What they thought in their hearts was that if they could fight into the city, the king would reward them with something.

But as a result, now just watching the catapults on both sides beat each other, and it seems that their side has the upper hand. Thousands of boulders flew back and forth in the air, making the soldiers of the Beichen Army who were originally interested in attacking the city a little irritated. Some people even began to scold the catapults on their side, okay, no, let us infantry. With the thousands of catapult troops in the city, as long as the army enters the city, it will take less than ten minutes to get rid of all the catapults.

Such big words made the soldiers of the catapult unit very dissatisfied, so the catapult of the Beichen Army began to play extraordinarily.

The three-hour catapult bombardment ended with the loss of 1,200 catapults by the Beichen Army and 700 catapults in the city. This result made everyone very dissatisfied, Xiao Chen is gas catapult troops actually beat each other with the opposite catapult for nearly four hours. Originally, the troops were organized early in the morning to carry out a tentative attack, but the result was such a delay, and when the catapult battle was over, everyone went directly back to the camp for dinner.

In this way, the planned tentative offensive could only be postponed until the afternoon. The officers and men of the Beichen Army were also very dissatisfied, and their good opportunity for meritorious service was lost by a catapult battle. Moreover, the big guys have been freezing all morning outside, and no one will be in a good mood.

The monarch of the Sharu Kingdom was even more furious, and almost slashed the commander with a single sword. There are now more than 1,000 catapults in the city, and this thing is stupid to fight with the 3,000 catapults of the Beichen Army, and the result is a heavy loss. This makes people unbearable, we have fewer catapults, and there are not as many as the Beichen Army, so we can't afford you to waste it like this. Besides, what is the status of catapults in the period of cold weapons, it is equivalent to modern cannons.

Especially in siege warfare, the side with a large number of catapults will always be able to take advantage of it. It's good now, I originally had the ability to fight against the catapults of the Beichen Army, but now I have been directly crippled.

The people in the city were even more unhappy, and at this time there were nearly two million people gathered in the city of Sharu, as well as a million troops. The population density in the city is very large, and the Beichen Army does not know how many boulders have been thrown into the city in the past few hours. And most of the stones didn't hit the target, and it was naturally the people in the city who suffered.

In the afternoon, the Beichen Army reappeared outside the city of Sharu, and the remaining more than 1,800 catapults continued to bombard. It's just that this time, the army of the Shalu Kingdom, which only has three or four hundred catapults left, will no longer dare to fight back. For fear of fighting a catapult battle and causing huge losses to his side.

A tentative siege is simple and quick. After smashing for a while, the catapult troops found that it had no effect. So, they gave up on continuing the attack. The infantry then advanced as the catapults in the city suffered heavy losses. When the Beichen infantry was advancing, they were only attacked by very few boulders. However, such a small boulder was immediately suppressed by the catapult of the Beichen Army.

The siege battle lasted for more than an hour, and Xiao Chen ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops. It's really too difficult, in an hour, 200,000 Beichen Army warriors didn't even climb the city wall. After the siege cone slammed the city gate dozens of times, it did not achieve the slightest result. Under the large number of casualties, Xiao Chen had no choice but to withdraw his troops, planning to go back and think of a way.
