Dozens of rounds later, Chen Kui slashed General Gray's right arm with a knife, accompanied by a scream, a one-armed spear flew into the air, General Gray was frightened, and was about to drive the horse back to the city, but Chen Kui made a move back to the wind and willow, cut off his head, and after the horse ran out of a distance with General Gray, the body on his back fell to the ground, and the horse stopped and circled in place.

The soldiers on Yang Tian's side suddenly burst out with a loud voice that shook the sky, and their morale was greatly shaken.

Chen Kui was already blushing at the other party's war horse, and when he saw this scene, his body suddenly rushed out and grabbed the war horse. The raiders and soldiers of the city also rushed forward, aiming to recover the body of their general. But how can the speed of these soldiers be compared to Chen Kui? When Chen Kui grabbed the war horse and jumped on the horse, those soldiers were still dozens of meters away from here. Chen Kui picked up General Gray's head with a knife and rushed back to his own camp.

After the raiders recovered the headless body of General Gray, they did not dare to pursue it further, and quickly retreated to the city.

Chen Kui rode the opponent's war horse and walked around the battlefield a few times, which was at least a high-grade war horse, and it was unknown whether the bloodline was excellent or ordinary. However, Chen Kui felt that this war horse was much better than the wildebeest he had just ridden, and his bones were much stronger.

Chen Kui came to the city again and shouted, "Why did you send such a useless person over? Isn't there a stronger one? ā€

When the leader of the city saw Chen Kui holding the head of his military general on the knife, his face turned purple with anger, and he shouted, "Who will go down to fight?" ā€

"My subordinates are willing to go!" Another blonde and blue-eyed general stepped forward.

The chief looked at him, weighed it, and said, "Good! General Enroth couldn't be better on it! ā€

In a few moments, General Enroth rushed out of the city. Chen Kui doesn't talk nonsense. The big knife skirt uĆ n cherry badger is resistant to imitation of the mushroom

The weapon used by General Enros was a long-handled giant axe, and Chen Kui didn't dare to fight him hard, and began to fight with him.

This General Enroth was a cut above Gray, but now Chen Kui had a relatively comfortable war horse and quickly gained the upper hand.

The leader on the city wall looked anxious and hurriedly ordered the troops to be collected. But Chen Kui quickly cut through the mess with a knife, and pierced General Enlos's chest with a knife, killing him on the spot.

"General, now the morale of our army has plummeted, and it is not appropriate to fight again!" One of the advisors beside the leader persuaded.

The leader gritted his teeth in hatred. Now they dare not make a difference. There are only two or three of his subordinates who can be stronger than General Enlos, and if he is killed again, I am afraid that his military spirit will be weakened. After a while, the leader said: "Pass the order, close the city and refuse to fight!" If the enemy is attacking the city. Just give me a hard beating! ā€

After the order was given, the raiders under the city quickly rushed back into the city, and even the body of General Nnlos did not have time to recover it, and then closed the city gates. Chen Kui scolded under the city, but a cadre of generals on the city wall had already hidden behind, obviously not wanting to deal with him.

Da Niu said on the side: "These guys are too timid, right? Only two died, and they are going to be shrunken turtles! Lord, now that the marauders here are demoralized, let's attack the city immediately, right? ā€

In Yang Tian's heart. In fact, he was very reluctant to siege the city, because he didn't want to talk about his precious high-level soldiers wasted in the siege war. But at this moment, he was driven to the shelves, even if he was reluctant in his heart, the city still had to be attacked.

Yang Tiandao: "We must avoid the other party's ballista, otherwise we will suffer heavy losses." Yue Dan and Pei Yuanshao led the Qilin Legion and the Lion Legion to attack from a thousand meters away on both sides of the North City Gate. And each with a hundred catapults for remote pressing. The rest of the people, waiting, stood by in place. ā€

"Yes! Lord! Yue Dan and Pei Yuanshao immediately led the order to retreat.

After a while, Yue Dan and the two rushed out of the camp with their respective men and horses, and quickly pushed to both sides.

After the two legions of "...... Killing" arrived at their respective attack locations, they rushed directly towards the city wall. These two legions are mainly sword and shield soldiers, and the lion army is all sword and shield soldiers, and they are undoubtedly the most suitable characters for siege.

The ranks of each legion stretched for thousands of meters, and they rushed into the battlefield with solid steps with siege ladders, and as soon as they reached the attack distance of the catapults on the city wall, dozens of boulders flew up from the city wall, crossed an arc, and smashed into the formation of the two major legions. It's just that these seventh-order soldiers are not comparable to ordinary fourth-order soldiers after all, and they can already avoid the speed of the catapult, which is not very fast, on a certain range. Moreover, their battle formations were not very dense, so there were no casualties in the first round of boulders.

As the team continued to move forward, more catapults on the walls met the attack distance requirement, and they began to throw stones wildly.

The soldiers of the two legions finally suffered casualties, and these catapults were small catapults, which reached a distance of 500 meters after the bonus of the city walls, and the stones thrown were the size of a basin. After these seventh-order soldiers were hit, there was absolutely no life or death.

However, fortunately, the catapults on the side of Baiyun City finally pulled to a position about five hundred meters in front of the battlefield, and began to show their hideous fangs, and stones the size of grinding discs smashed into the eight-zhang high city wall under the action of huge leverage.

"Bang ......! Bang ......" Countless huge crashing sounds erupted at the moment when the boulder was lifted to the city wall. The boulder shattered instantly, but the stone strip of the city wall that was hit by the boulder also had cracks, and at most this crack seemed inconsequential, but when more cracks appeared, it was when the city wall collapsed.

There were also people on the city walls who saw the danger, and they did not expect that the enemy in front of them actually had medium-sized catapults. This medium-sized catapult can do much more damage to the city walls than a small one. The commander in charge of these two sections of the wall immediately ordered the catapult operator to aim at the opponent's catapult and attack. Due to the effect of the city wall, the distance of the catapults of the two sides is almost the same, so these generals are not worried that the boulders they throw will not hit the opponent's catapults.

So the catapults of both sides began to smash against each other......

Without the catapult suppression, the two armies rushed forward faster. After rushing to a distance of two hundred meters from the city wall, the archers on the city wall began to wield their might, and countless sharp arrows rained down.

The strength of these high-level archers is indeed strong, although the two major legions below are also elite generals, but the number of bows and arrows is large, and the power naturally increases greatly, and it is too late to dodge. The sharp arrows pierced through the gap of the round shield defense in the soldier's hand, piercing the fish scale armor he was wearing, and the sound of sharp weapons entering the flesh was terrifying.

The Kirin Legion had 4,000 heavy shield soldiers, which were placed in front of the defense, and the losses were relatively small. The losses of the Lion Legion were greater, and in a matter of moments, dozens of soldiers fell on the battlefield.

The two legions were still charging forward, and they were extremely fast, and after the archers on the walls had fired three rounds of arrows, the soldiers had already rushed under the walls, and began to erect siege ladders as high as nine feet, desperately climbing upwards, and raising the round shields in their hands to protect their heads.

The raiders on the ramparts began to lift the stones around them and slam them downward, but they were far less powerful than the boulders thrown by the catapults. The following Baiyun City soldiers who were climbing the siege ladder used the round shield in their hands to basically be able to deflect these boulders or unload the impact force. Unless some particularly unlucky soldiers can't exert their strength when they are hit, they are smashed down.

These raiders also seemed to find that the power of these stones was not great, so they began to pour fire oil downward, and now the soldiers of Baiyun City were unlucky, they had to be careful to deal with the boulders that fell on their heads, and now they had to deal with this pervasive fire oil, and suddenly many soldiers were burned by the hot fire oil or hit by the boulders, rolling down the ladder.

On such a battlefield, injuries are basically equal to death, and no one will go to the city to save the wounded with a rain of arrows, boulders, and fire oil. Soon after, they were killed by falling rocks and oil.

The dead are gone, the living are still fighting, and countless soldiers climbed the ladder and were ruthlessly beaten back. Many times these soldiers have already climbed to the top of the city, but the soldiers on the other side of the city wall are not weak, and in less than a moment, these people are cleared from the city wall, of course, their hard work is not without effect, and it also causes great damage to the raiders defending the city.

The catapults of the two sides continued to be thrown, but fortunately, the catapults on the side of Baiyun City were more powerful, and they had already smashed the five catapults of the other side to pieces, while only two of them had struck. However, Baiyun City's side is not without a price, and occasionally a boulder will even hit its own soldiers, which is also unavoidable.

The siege lasted for four or five hours, and Yang Tian saw that the other party did not move, so he withdrew his troops. The surviving soldiers of the two legions quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

Yue Dan walked over quickly and said, "Lord, we are about to attack the city wall, why did Ming Jin withdraw his troops?" ā€

Yang Tian glared at him angrily and said, "It's easy for you to attack the city wall!" It is estimated that by the time you attack the city wall, all the soldiers will be exhausted. ā€

Yue Shan snorted twice but didn't argue, Yang Tian asked, "What are the casualties of your legion?" ā€

Yue Dan said: "The number of dead is nearly 6,000, but we also killed more than 2,000 raiders on the other side. ā€

Pei Yuanshao also said: "My lion army also lost 5,000 people and killed more than 2,000 enemies. Lord, these defenders and raiders should also be official members of the legion, and their strength at the same level is not much different from that of our legion soldiers. ā€

Yang Tian could naturally think that the other party was a formal legion, but in this battle, the damage was so great, it made him a little difficult to accept. You must know that the two armies fought two battles alone, and after the raiders were defeated in a row, their morale was greatly damaged.

Although these more than 10,000 seventh-order soldiers can be resurrected with points, the points required are as high as nearly three million. Yang Tianzhen didn't know if he would have points to resurrect his fallen soldiers after he defeated the city. The brutality of siege warfare is extraordinary. (To be continued)
