Chapter 49: The Battle of the Defending the City

On the way back, Yu Yan glanced at Lin Haotian beside him, and said with surprise: "Little brother, you are Lin Haotian?"

Lin Haotian nodded slightly, arched his hand and said, "My subordinates have seen the general!"

"Haha..."Yu Yan looked on his back, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "If you are really a young hero, when Shi Jiang told me about the two requirements you made, I was still a little hesitant, and now it seems that I am too worried!"

"The general has won the prize!"

"Your own brother, you don't have to be polite!" Yu Yan glanced at Lin Haotian deeply, and suddenly said meaningfully: "However, Du Yu is in control of ten central corps in his hands, and today you offended him, but you stabbed a lot of baskets!"

Lin Haotian sneered in his heart, how could he not hear Yu Yan's extraneous meaning, it was just that he was worried that Du Yu's shili was too big, so he used this to dispel his idea of remaining neutral.

But Lin Haotian is also a person who understands the general situation, since Yu Yan asked so, he also happened to indicate his position by the way, his face was straight, and he knelt down on one knee and said: "There is a general covered here, are you still afraid that he Du Yu will not succeed? In the future, we will be the head of the general!"

"Okay!" Yu Yan patted Lin Haotian on the shoulder, and said, "The little brother is really a sensible person, Shi Jiang, you take the little brother to the city gate to see ...... first"

Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden earth-shattering noise in the distance, and the sound was so loud that the eardrums of everyone present trembled a little.

"How... What's going on?" Lin Haotian's eyes widened and he looked at the source of the sound.

Yu Yan frowned and listened carefully, the sound seemed to come from the direction of the city gate, and vaguely, it seemed to be mixed with the sound of shouting and killing.

He has been in the army for many years, and his reaction is extremely fast, and at that moment, his face suddenly changed: "Not good! It may be that the Red Army has begun to attack the city again!"

"What?!"

Lin Haotian was stunned, today was only the first day he had just come to the barracks, and the Red Army would come to attack the city, which was too much to save face......

Yu Yan immediately ordered: "Shi Jiang, you go and inform Du Yu, and let him immediately bring people to the city gate to support! Haotian, you go to the city gate with me first!"

"Yes!" Shi Jiang replied, and hurriedly ran back.

Lin Haotian also realized the seriousness of the matter, although he was a little reluctant in his heart, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and lead the brothers behind him to follow Yu Yan to the direction of the city gate.

The gate of the Twin Peaks City is just sandwiched between two canyons, made of brass, weighing 100 tons, and the surrounding walls are also high and thick.

Prior to this, the Red Army had also attacked several times, but most of them ended in failure. Seeing that his ally Mu Jun had won one after another on the border of the Jin State, and his own side had not even captured a city so far, the commander of the Red Army could no longer sit still, and this time, he sent a team of 150,000 people to capture Shuangfeng City.

As the saying goes, there are more than 10,000 people, there is no boundary, and the army of 150,000 people can only be described as overwhelming, and when Lin Haotian and the others arrived at the city gate, the battle between the two sides had entered a white-hot state.

The city wall is densely packed with Jin soldiers holding rolling logs and stones, once an enemy army approaches the city wall, they will immediately smash the heavy objects in their hands on the heads of the comers, behind these soldiers, there are thousands of soldiers with longbows, one by one draw their bows and arrows, do not need to aim, that is, shoot at the crowd below like an ant colony.

The Red Army's offensive was based on corps units, with groups of 10,000 people, with five groups leading the front and the other ten groups pressing the rear. The momentum of 50,000 people is terrifying enough, but such a huge team is inevitably exposed to the arrow array of the Jin army on the city tower, accompanied by the rain of arrows flying from the air like raindrops, and the screams in the Red Army camp are one after another.

In this regard, the Red Army also responded in time, and after the first round of arrow rain of the Jin Army, the 100,000 people who remained in the rear to press the formation hurriedly launched hundreds of catapults from behind the team.

The boulders launched from the catapult were like powerful bombs, constantly smashing on the city wall, making bursts of earth-shattering loud noises, and some unlucky Jin soldiers couldn't dodge, and were directly smashed by the boulders falling from the sky, and were crushed into meat on the spot.

In this case, the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom did not dare to get too close to the city wall, so they could only hide behind the arrow stacks, and their faces were full of nervousness and fear.

"Don't mess around, listen to my command!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Yu Yan, who had already climbed the city wall at some point, hurriedly shouted to the surrounding soldiers: "Prepare to roll wood and stones, the archers are in the rear, cover for them!"

Yu Yan's shouting did have a lot of effect, and some soldiers who were originally hiding behind the arrow array gritted their teeth, and simply picked up a rolling stone or sassa wood next to him, and rushed to the front of the city wall again.

"Boom, boom—"

The boulder is still smashing the city wall, but the Jin soldiers on the city wall have begun to work in an orderly manner, and occasionally a few unlucky eggs will be hit by the flying boulder, but at present, the overall defense of the Jin army is gradually effective.

Finally, when the Red Army was less than 100 paces away from the city gate, hundreds of catapults finally stopped firing, but immediately after, the shouts of killing under the city became louder, and the Red soldiers accelerated their pace and began to attack the city with all their might.

"Shoot the arrows!" Looking at the approaching Red Country soldiers, Yu Yan shouted an order to the archers in the rear.

"Plop, pounce, pounce!"

Arrows flew out from the city wall, looking from afar, like dark clouds condensed in the sky, flying towards the Red Kingdom soldiers under the city.

Suddenly, the sound of metal clashing and heart-rending screams were connected under the city, and in a moment, hundreds of people in the Red Army formation fell to the ground with arrows.

But this did not affect the overall speed of the Red Army's advance, in this kind of battlefield where life is as fragile as ants, no one has a choice, even if there is a sea of swords and fires ahead, they can only charge forward.

"Shoot the arrows, keep the arrows!"

Amid the hoarse shouts of the flames, the Jin army launched a second volley, followed by a third, and a fourth......

But the large force of the Red Army was now like unconscious robots, without the slightest flinch, the people in front fell, and the soldiers in the rear stepped on their corpses and continued to push forward.

In the end, after paying thousands of casualties, the large force of the Red Army finally arrived at the foot of the Twin Peaks, and everyone set up the ladder that had been prepared for the city, and then began to climb the city wall in a swarm.

Seeing them kill under the city, the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom on the city wall all raised their hearts to their throats, and some people grabbed the rolling wood or stone next to them casually, and without looking at it, they threw it in the direction of the ladder on the city wall, and even worse, directly picked up a can of fire oil and poured it down the city wall.

Many of the Red Soldiers who were hanging in mid-air were caught off guard by the Jin Army's almost crazy move, and fell down the ladder screaming.

"Raise your shield, put your shield on your head!" among the Red Army, I don't know who was the first to shout.

Hearing this, the Red Country soldiers seemed to grasp the life-saving straw, hurriedly untied the shield tied to their bodies, held the shield in one hand, and held the ladder with the other hand, and continued to climb the city wall.

"Damn!" Looking at the obviously much less powerful rolling wood stone, Yu Yan slammed the wall and shouted: "Prepare a spear, don't let an enemy enter the city!"

Under the offensive of the Red Army in all directions, it did not take long for part of the city wall to be broken through by the Red Army, and a large number of Red Army troops climbed up the ladder and fought face-to-face close to the Jin defenders on the city wall.

At this moment, the top and bottom of the city wall were like a frying pan, and people shouted and neighed, and the shouts of killing, screaming, crashing, and the sound of bones shattering were connected on the city wall.
