Chapter Ninety-Four: The Attack on Fukuoka Castle

After only one day's march, the army came to Fukuoka Castle, the nearest city to the west of Eyre Castle. This is a Japanese player's castle, and it looks very similar to a Chinese castle, but it is not as tall as the Chinese walls.

According to the information obtained in the past, the walls of this Japanese city are six meters high and have a circumference of twenty miles. There were 6,700 regular garrisons in the city, and 8,000 militia were temporarily recruited. The rest of the city's population numbered more than 30,000 people.

Li Zhaoliang recalled the information he had seen about Fukuoka Castle before, and his brows furrowed. What to say about this city, the number of regular troops in the city is extremely low, and there are almost no bows and arrows, and there are not many materials to defend the city. But the fact that there is such a large number of militia troops is really disgusting.

Although the combat effectiveness of those militias is indeed not good, they are also people. Throw a rock or something, it's still fine. He has 70,000 men and horses in his hands, but if he loses too much in Fukuoka Castle, then the strategy after that will not be easy.

How to fight?

Lure the enemy? The 70,000 horses under his command are estimated to be able to scare the other side to death, and they dare not come out if they are a tiger. Scam City? How deceitful, it seems that people don't know us. Is there any other way?

After thinking about it, he didn't think of any feasible way, so Li Zhaoliang had no choice but to attack!

The army had finished camping, and although it was only about four o'clock at the moment, they had eaten dinner early. Subsequently, under the orders of Li Zhaoliang, the army was all assembled under Fukuoka Castle.

The army of 60,000 people was all under Fukuoka Castle and lined up in a phalanx. With the arrival of Li Zhaoliang, Lin Hu, Eugene and others, the army cheered. After that, dozens of cowhide drums, under the blows of dozens of strong men, let out a roar.

The drums are beating, the flags are dancing, the swords are lined up, and the armor soldiers are gathered!

"Herald! The army was divided into four formations, each with a co-ordination and a standard, and the main attack was on one wall. Li Zhaoliang said loudly to the herald.

"No!" When the herald received the order, he turned on his horse and ran along the front of the army and roared.

"The handsome man has an order! The whole army is divided into four formations, each of which is responsible for attacking a city wall! ”

"The handsome man has an order! The whole army is divided into four formations, each of which is responsible for attacking a city wall! ”

"The handsome man has an order! The whole army is divided into four formations, each of which is responsible for attacking a city wall! ”

Soon, the army formation of 60,000 people, after only a short period of chaos, completed the assignment task under the leadership of the general manager. Subsequently, under the leadership of a co-president and a standard president, they each ran to a city wall.

After the 45,000 troops on the eastern, southern, and northern city walls were ready, Li Zhaoliang waved the order flag in his hand, and the army attacked the city!

As for the soldiers in charge of attacking the city wall in the west, they had to wait for them because of the distance. Let the army to the west decide when to attack, as long as it can contain the enemy's forces.

Fukuoka Castle had nearly 13,000 regular troops and militiamen, and after seeing the Hokushin Kingdom army divide its forces to attack the castle. Even under the orders of his lord, the army was similarly divided. The eastern city was guarded by 4,000 men, and the remaining three walls were each guarded by 3,000 men.

Twenty miles of square cities, on average, each wall is only more than 2,000 meters. Plus some of the supplies placed on the walls, weapons, and the buildings on the walls. Although a city wall is guarded by a minimum of 3,000 people, only 2,000 people can actually stay on the wall. The remaining thousand people can only wait for the death of the brother above and give up their places.

The army began to attack the city, and according to the custom of the Beichen* team, the first to attack was the catapult.

Twenty catapults, which had just been built from the workshop, had been assembled four hundred paces in advance of the city walls. With a few strong men, a small stone bullet of about 20 catties was put behind the launcher. The ropes pulled close by more than 20 people released their exertive hands, and several stones on the loaded leather basket flew directly towards the city wall.

Although there are not as many dozens of catties, nearly 100 catties of medium-sized stone bullets and heavy stone bullets are powerful. But so many small stone bullets are still very scary, after all, more than a hundred stone bullets, no matter how big or small, flying in the air are very terrifying.

Of course, although their power is not as good as those big ones, they are still not to be underestimated. There was no earth-shattering noise, and the stones that fell on the walls did not cause any harm to the thick body of the walls. But the defenders on the city walls, they don't have the thick bodies of the city walls.

The body of flesh and blood could not resist the ferocious stone with the leather armor it wore alone. Small stones hit people, there is no flesh, but they will definitely not survive. Just looked at the defender, who was pierced through the abdomen by a small stone. A large round hole appeared directly on the body, and standing in front of this hole, you can even see the female wall behind.

The large intestine, small intestine and various intestines that were smashed in the abdomen all ran out of the outside world along the hole. Even the shattered chest could no longer lock the heart, a red fluttering, still beating heart. He also slipped directly into the chest to the hole in his abdomen, and then slipped from that hole to the ground again, until he rolled at the feet of a militiaman, and then stopped moving.

The militiaman, who had seen the whole process of heart movement, stared at the heart that had fallen to the ground and was still beating. I stayed for a long time and didn't react until the next wave of stone rain came. A stone smashed against the female wall beside her, and the sound of the sound pulled the militia back from its sluggishness.

"Ah~~ I'm going home, I'm going home. I'm not a soldier anymore! The militiaman, who had just reacted, immediately burst into tears. Crying and shouting, he threw down his weapon and ran towards the stone staircase of the city wall. Several militias around were also affected by this person, and coupled with the shocking power of these two rounds of stone rain killing, the loyalty in their hearts was directly smashed to pieces.

"Go back! Give me all back! ”

The Overseer team accidentally let the militia who fled at the beginning run a distance of dozens of meters. Everywhere they passed, dozens of militiamen were affected by it and began to run with the militia.

However, these dozens of militiamen did not run far before they were stopped by a dozen or so veterans. The Warlords then rushed up. Raising the sharp blade in his hand, he pointed at the dozens of militiamen who had escaped from the battle, and shouted loudly: "Go back, go back!" Those who escaped from the battle will not be spared! ”

Those dozens were also afraid of the deterrence of the Warlords, and they didn't dare to take a step forward, but they didn't choose to retreat!

"Poof!" A member of the overseer team, looking at these dozens of people, none of them turned around. directly hacked a militiaman to death on the spot, and then said: "Give me all back, otherwise it will all end up like this!" ”

The rest of the dozen or so warlords and more than a dozen veterans also raised their knives in their hands, nervously on guard.

Look at the knife with a shining edge, and then look at the militia who fell to the ground, not yet dead. The appearance that he went in in one breath, but didn't get out of breath, and he would die sooner or later, made these militiamen a little frightened. Then, under the blade of the Warlord's team, he reluctantly turned around and turned back.

In one breath, more than 20 waves of stone bullets were attacked, and more than 2,000 stone bullets were almost thrown. But the casualties caused were a bit miserable, and they were not as good as those archers standing at one hundred and fifty paces. Of course, it is an indisputable fact that the number of archers is large and the rate of fire is fast.

On average, there were 5,000 archers on each wall, and the defenders on the walls were almost not tortured to death. Five thousand archers can shoot fifteen waves of arrows when the infantry advances one hundred and fifty paces. Seventy-five thousand arrows were fired at one wall, for a total of 300,000.

Almost all of the arrows that had been captured and forged had been scattered into the city. However, many of these arrows can be recycled. After all, as long as the arrow is not broken, it is impossible to dull the arrow when it hits the leather armor and the city wall.

300,000 arrows, if it is really a field battle, it can almost kill tens of thousands of people. However, it was a siege battle, but no less than three or four thousand people were still shot, and the catapults only killed a hundred or ten people.

The infantry had already approached the walls, and neither archers nor catapults were attacking, so as not to hurt their own men. The following is the performance of the Beichen Army's foot soldiers, a simple cloud ladder was set up on the city wall, and then one by one the sword and shield soldiers stared at the stones and trees thrown on the city wall without fear, climbed the cloud ladder, and rushed towards the city wall.

Changgebing is simple, and the city wall that is less than six meters high is like nothing in Changgebing's opinion. You must know that the cities that were attacked before, whether they were in China or Europe and the United States, all had walls at least seven or eight meters high. As for the current Donglin City, it has been increased to fifteen meters, and it is an insurmountable heaven at all.

The six-meter-high city wall is really insignificant, and the Changge in the hands of Changge soldiers has a length of more than six meters. In other words, Chang Ge stands on the ground, and the tips of Ge are more than the city wall, what kind of concept is this!

So, under Fukuoka Castle, you can see groups of Beichen Changge soldiers holding the tail of Changge and stabbing towards the city wall. For such a situation, Li Zhaoliang himself did not expect it. Nima, Changge soldiers standing on the ground, can attack each other with the enemy troops on the city wall, what kind of trouble is this!

Even if you don't have a dish, then you might as well raise the city wall. In such a situation, I see what else you have to say.

With the Changge soldiers standing on the ground to attack, harassing the defenders, the difficulty of the sword and shield soldiers to climb the city wall was greatly reduced. In this case, not to mention that the army of Beichen Kingdom was speechless, even the defenders above were all twitching the corners of their mouths.

Can such a siege war still be considered a siege war? The history of the whole world is added together, is there such a siege battle?

This is also a little bit of a pit daddy!

After being vigorously shocked by the catapult, the archers were brutally beaten. Faced with the shamelessness of the Changge soldiers, the sword and shield soldiers took advantage of the weakness. The defenders of Fukuoka Castle were soon unable to resist, and you must know that the Warlord had already killed many militiamen who participated in the defense of the city, which suppressed the state of the defenders' dispersion.

However, how can this situation be suppressed now? The enemy's sword and shield soldiers had already reached the city walls, and they had taken a lot of places. After the sword and shield soldiers went up, the Changge soldiers also began to rush towards the city wall. At this time, the regular army had already gone up to plug the gap, and even those overseers were pulled up.

As for those militiamen, it is better to count on them than to expect God to send thunder and kill the Beichen army.

Those militias who have not received formal training, who have not been on the battlefield. Going up to meet the battle is really useless except for sending meritorious services to the Beichen sergeants. Oh ~ That's right! Pull them up to plug the gap, and it may also allow the Beichen Army to expand the area of the city wall.

As a result, a huge number of militia troops were thrown directly on the city wall to fend for themselves. Until a few militiamen secretly threw down their weapons and ran towards the city, without being stopped by the Warlords. More militia members joined the ranks that fled.

The regular army in the defenders is fighting to the death to block the soldiers of Beichen and expand the area of the battle territory on the city wall. However, the casualties were simply too great. When the Beichen army had not yet climbed the city wall, it could still reach a one-to-one battle loss. But now the battle damage is as high as three to one, and more and more defenders are killed.

A defender who had just been helplessly pushed out shouted loudly behind him: "You militia, hurry up!" When the guard had finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to call for help.

But this time I turned my head and was dumbfounded. On the city wall, none of the militias without armor were gone. All that remained behind him were piles of weapons, and crooked battle flags. And farther away, there are defenders from the regular army who are also trying to resist the Beichen Army.

What a thing!

These seniors are dead in front, and the teammates behind are all running! That's how the big guy was sold! I'm really not afraid of god-like enemies, but I'm afraid of pig-like teammates!

How can this situation be fought now!

On the four city walls, all of them have Beichen soldiers on the city wall. Those defender troops from the regular army were also desperately resisting the Beichen Army. However, the number has become less and less.

One by one, the robes fell to the ground, and the defender brothers behind also hurriedly blocked it. However, the thickness of the defending units has gradually thinned. Without the support of the living forces behind you, failure is a matter of time!

Soon, after the militia, which made up a large proportion of the garrison troops of Fukuoka Castle, fled. There are fewer and fewer regular defenders. The battles on the four walls of the city gradually became scarce, and almost all the soldiers standing on the city walls were Beichen soldiers in red armor.

As for the defenders who are still resisting, they are already facing siege on both sides, and the only way to survive is to jump off the wall next to them. The six-meter-high wall is indeed not too high, and the worst jump of a man in the prime of life is just a cripple or a broken bone.

If you're in good health, if you jump down, you might pat your ass and leave!
