Chapter 21: The Fall of Liucheng IV

"The catapult is ready! Tuco, you take five hundred marksmen to ambush outside the east gate, and Ula Simou, you take five hundred marksmen to ambush at the north gate. As soon as the catapult starts attacking, you two will immediately cooperate with the catapult to attack. "Somewhere in the Chengtian camp, Deputy Commander Curry is arranging the location of the catapult and arranging for his men to prepare for the attack. According to Harawi's deployment, most of the catapults were deployed at the east and north gates, while the rest were deployed in the other two directions. When the East Gate and the North Gate are plunged into darkness, Haraway himself will lead the troops to attack the East Gate, while Curry will lead the troops to attack the North Gate. Of course, there will also be attacks by the Chengtian army in the southwest and two directions. After Haravi and Curry attacked, two of his subordinates would command the troops, using the darkness as a cover, and piled up the excavated earth under the east and north gates at all costs to create conditions for the cavalry to attack the city.

In order to ensure that he could take the city in the shortest possible time, Haraway gathered all the map chiefs and ten figure chiefs in his hands, and brought half of them by himself and Curry to enhance the combat effectiveness of the siege troops.

After Zhang Suo and Zhao Leihu finished drinking, they returned to the city. He never thought that this meal with Zhao Leihu would become the last record between brothers.

Only one hour after nightfall, the Chengtian army resolutely launched a full-scale attack on Liucheng again, regardless of the unfavorable situation of the loss of troops in the afternoon and the expedition of the labor division. Zhang did not dare to slack off, and personally went to the West Gate to command the battle. And the Chengtian army also seemed to take the West Gate as the main direction of attack, and one after another of Chengtian soldiers rushed towards the Liucheng City Gate without their lives. The soldiers defending the city looked indifferently at the black-armored army under the city, and rockets were ruthlessly poured on the heads of these invaders like heavy rain. Countless Chengtian soldiers were shot by rockets and turned into large fireballs in human shapes, struggling and screaming.

Outside the West Gate, Harawi's expressionless face showed displeasure, and he motioned for a hundred Tu Chang beside him to step forward to supervise the battle. After half an hour of fierce fighting, Harawi's troops finally set up the ladder on the head of the city at the west gate, and the soldiers of Chengtian also overcame their initial fear of the North Sea rockets, and took off their bows and arrows one after another, and fired back at the North Sea soldiers on the city. The huge battering ram weighing thousands of pounds was pushed by more than a dozen heroes, constantly retreating and advancing, and the entire west gate was crumbling.

After the ladder was erected, the soldiers of Chengtian climbed down the ladder like a tide towards the head of the West Gate. Under the cover of their companions under the city, from time to time, scattered Chengtian soldiers climbed up to the city head with full moon scimitars, and slashed each other with the Beihai soldiers on the city head. Zhang Suo had already been hit by two arrows at this time, but he still fought hard to kill the enemy who attacked the city. Seeing that the situation was critical, Zhang Suo hurriedly ordered the four regiments belonging to the regular army of the Mulan Legion that remained in the city to immediately reinforce the West Gate.

About a stick of incense later, just when Ximen was in danger, a large group of Beihai soldiers dressed in white cloth armor suddenly rushed out. After the reinforcements arrived, they immediately fought with many Chengtian soldiers who attacked the city, and drove them off the city.

Seeing that his troops were driven down the city of Simon, Haraway finally showed a smile of victory.

"From the point of view of combat effectiveness, this batch of reinforcements should be the part of the regular army that Zhang Suo kept as a reserve. Curry, you and I immediately split up. Tonight, we got drunk in Liucheng. ”

"Haha, borrowing the general's auspicious words, later, we will reunite in Liucheng!" After speaking, Haravi and Curry quietly left the West Gate position, leaving only the Baitu Commander who supervised the battle to continue to command the large army to storm the West Gate.

After the reinforcements arrived, Zhang finally took the opportunity to take a breath, and hurriedly pulled out the bow and arrow on his body and received treatment. The deputy icesmith of the 117th Division temporarily replaced Zhang Suo's command of the city defense troops at the West Gate.

"Fuck. These bastards were scorched so much by Lao Tzu in the afternoon, and they still attacked so badly tonight. Are these guys on the other side still human? They are simply jackals, tigers, and leopards! In just a few moments, more than 3,000 people have been lost, and almost all of the 2,000 recruits guarding the west gate have been wiped out. It's only been one day, and the losses are so great, and when I carry it over tonight, I will immediately ask the commander of the Han Army to allow me to act with the camera. Zhang Suo was healing his wounds while scolding there.

As soon as Haraway and Curry reached their positions at the East Gate and North Gate, respectively, Haraway fired a signal arrow into the air. A green arrow pierced the black night sky. The battlefield that had been filled with murderous sounds suddenly became quiet for a moment.

"What's that?" Zhang Suo also saw the green arrow light, and felt inexplicably uneasy in his heart. A moment later, a huge water bag flew in from a distance, scattered over the city, and smashed right on Zhang Suo's body. Zhang Suo's whole body was soaked, and his head was smashed a little dizzy. Immediately afterwards, the torches on the west gate were extinguished one by one by the water bags flying from afar, and they fell into darkness.

Not only the West Gate, but also the torches on the other three city gates were all extinguished by the water bags thrown by the Chengtian army, and many bows and arrows also directly hit the Beihai soldiers defending the city. For a time, the entire Liucheng fell into chaos. Haraway and Curry led a death squad of officers to ride the night to the east and north gates...

The torches were extinguished, and the soldiers of the North Sea naturally wanted to rekindle the torches. Gradually, the west and south gates were lit up again, and the soldiers at the east and north gates were horrified to find that every time they set them on fire, the next moment a large wave of water bags accompanied by a rain of arrows completely doused them.

"Don't panic, calm down. The enemy will definitely take advantage of the chaos at this time. Grass!" At the head of the East Gate City, Zhao Leihu was calming the panicked recruits. Suddenly, he felt a cold scimitar in his left hand, and suddenly realized that the person in front of him must not be his subordinate, so he directly cut it in half with a sword. However, gradually, Zhao Leihu sensed that something was wrong, because the wolf howls began to grow more and more around him.

"It's over, the city is about to fall. I have to go to the city and organize troops to defend the city and defend the city gates. "Seeing that the situation is critical, we do not distinguish between friend and foe. Zhao Leihu had no choice but to take advantage of the bloody road of chaos and killing, came to the east gate, collected some scattered troops, and built a simple position under the city wall. At this time, there were less than four hundred people around Zhao Leihu.
