The crossbowmen of the Wuping army carried a full quiver on their backs, the first round of arrows had just been shot, and the second row of crossbowmen stepped forward to shoot the next round, and the layers of successive exchange and rotation were almost uninterrupted, and the barbarians on the head of the city did not even have time to breathe, so they could only helplessly shrink their heads and hide behind the battlements, and their ears were full of the sound of the sharp blade breaking through the air, and they did not dare to move in fear under the shroud of countless arrows.

"Quick! Crossing the bridge! Zhu Kuang rang out loudly under the city wall from a rough voice. With the powerful bow and arrow suppression, the barbarians defending the city could not raise their heads, the Wuping infantry by the moat took advantage of this opportunity to start to cross the foot bridge quickly, rows of ladders across the two ends of the ravine, and in a short time, four or five thousand armor soldiers successfully broke through to the edge of the city wall.

Tian Hongbin, who was standing at the head of Xizhou City and commanding the battle, could not know what the Tang army below intended to do, and watched as thousands of Tang soldiers took the opportunity to cross the deep ravine and ravine, and hurriedly shouted at the barbarian soldiers who were cowering behind the battlements around them and gave orders, blocking the enemy's advance at any cost.

"Boom!" Seeing this, even if the barbarians were reluctant, they could only grit their teeth and brave the dense rain of arrows, desperately poking their heads out to shoot arrows under the city.

After barely staggering two or three rounds of arrows, although many Tang soldiers were killed, the casualties of the barbarians themselves were even heavier. The crossbowmen of the Tang Army calmly returned fire in rows, behind the battlement, it was originally a blind spot in the field of vision, once there was a half face that suddenly appeared, so conspicuous and naturally became the best target, the arrows used for suppression were instantly changed to control and kill the enemy, and after only a moment, hundreds of barbarian arrows were inserted into the face, and the eyes fell down and screamed and wailed, so the vital parts were hit, and the combat effectiveness was immediately lost.

Tian Hongbin was so angry that his eyes almost wanted to breathe fire, he was accustomed to the way of fighting in the mountains and fields in the past, and he felt helpless and humiliated in his heart as soon as he experienced the first city attack and defense. He also finally understood why others often said that the Han people were good at attacking cities, seeing is believing, and today's Tang army has shown all kinds of incredible means in the perception of barbarians since the beginning of the battle.

The destruction of trebuchets, the roaring and sweeping formation of cavalry, the ant-attached advance of infantry, and the suppression of fire with bows and arrows, these powerful means of attack were so cleverly combined by the Tang army that they put aside the hostility for the time being, Tian Hongbin had to admire the enemy commander Li Yuan at this time, and this admiration contained a little powerlessness, a sense of powerlessness about the huge difference between the barbarians.

Gong Langzhi, who was standing one step away from Tian Hongbin, also felt very powerless, everyone knew that the barbarians not only lost the Tang army with armor but also bows and crossbows, and the experience of defending the city was far inferior, although this battle was held with a desperate faith, but the barbarians defending the city could have five thousand soldiers of their own tribe, and at this moment they were all at the forefront, and the casualties were the most heavy, how could the heart not be as sad as a drop of blood?

As the most important defense facility in the southern city, it could originally accommodate at least seven or eight hundred crossbowmen, and there were secret openings on all sides for the arrows to pass through.

The two leaders sighed in their hearts at the head of the city, the pace of the siege of the Wuping army was not delayed in the slightest, the soldiers had carried thousands of ladders to the bottom of the city, and erected them against the wall neatly, and these ladders were subtly different from the system used by the Tang army in the past, and the top was actually installed with a hard iron hook, as long as the edge of the city wall was fastened, it was difficult to knock down for a while with the manpower of the barbarian soldiers.

But there is one thing that is beneficial to the barbarians defending the city, that is, when the Wuping army began to attack the city, in order to avoid accidentally injuring friendly troops, the bow and arrow suppression had to be stopped immediately, and the individual soldiers were used to shoot accurately. But today, some crossbowmen in the Wuping army simply carried their hard bows behind them, drew their swords and turned into infantry to attack the torrent, and climbed desperately along the erected ladder to the head of the city.

The truly tragic siege battle has finally begun. Because the Wuping army stopped the bow and arrow fire coverage, the barbarians on the head of the city finally dared to rest assured to lean out to resist the enemy, for a time all kinds of weapons, in addition to swords, guns and bows, flying axes, standard spears, blow arrows all greeted the Wuping army who flocked to the city.

Although there are still point-to-point snipers of the Wuping army bowmen under the city, the barbarians also have to withstand the danger of being sniped at any time, desperately preventing the siege of the Wuping army.

But even if there are casualties, the momentum of the Wuping army's offensive is becoming more and more fierce, Liu Jiangsheng, who is in charge of the siege equipment, has already made full preparations in the previous air, an order, a row of siege crossbows in front of the Wuping army is aimed at the drawbridge iron cable at the gate of the city, and begins to fire in unison, and the iron cable will be slightly loosened in less than a moment, until the "squeak" of the suspension bridge fell down, the giant crossbow completed its mission, and immediately withdrew to the formation.

The flag waved, hundreds of elite soldiers began to shout to push the rushing car to rumble towards the south city gate hole, frantically banging the city gate, and the Xizhou city gate since the day of casting, it has used a double-layer thick wooden plank, at this time the door has been blocked with huge heavy rocks, which can be called solid, and the carefully selected gatekeepers are also tigers and bears, holding the blade.

"Bang bang!" Three rushing cars with huge cones alternately hit violently, the city gate still inevitably appeared a few cracks, the surrounding barbarians were terrified to hear, and urgently shouted reinforcements in barbarians, but in the end it was a log that had been used for fifty years, not waiting for reinforcements to arrive, the city gate board was quickly smashed into several pieces, and the boulder supporting the city gate behind was also pushed by the soldiers of the Wuping Army to fight together, and began to loosen and move towards the city, the city gate was announced to be open, and in an instant, the Wuping army was like a flood like a levee, and frantically poured into the city.

Soon after the city gate was breached, Zhu Kuangcong had already led hundreds of Wuping soldiers to carry the battle flag to the city, Tian Hongbin and the surrounding barbarians immediately started a fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Wuping army, and the swords were quickly splashed with the blood of the enemy.

Gong Langzhi, who was also caught in a bitter battle, saw that the city gate had been broken and the city wall was lost, and after struggling to kill Tian Hongbin, he hurriedly suggested that the whole army retreat to the urn city, after all, there were still many barbarian crossbowmen on standby in the urn city, with the cramped terrain of the urn city, even if the Tang army had more soldiers and horses, it was difficult to spread out, but it could temporarily stifle the Tang army's offensive.

Tian Hongbin didn't know, he saw that he was just about to give an order, and when he turned around, he saw that thousands of soldiers of the Wuping Army who were pouring in from the city gate were under the cover of crossbowmen, along the two narrow walls connecting the inner walls of the urn city, and the friendly troops at the head of the city were attacking the urn city, and the barbarian crossbowmen hiding in the urn city were attacked by the enemy on their backs, and the arrows were missed on all sides, and there was no chance of stalemate at all, and most of them were shot and killed.

Seeing that the urn city was about to fall into the hands of the Tang army, Tian Hongbin stared and scolded dozens of steps away, looking at the corpses of the barbarians who were crooked into a hill in the east of the urn city, hating it but there was nothing to do.

Soon after, on the long southern city wall, this narrow strip has been densely packed with tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides, and the bright banner armor of the Wuping army obviously accounts for the majority, the brute soldiers gradually fell into the wind and can only fight and retreat, Tian Hongbin, who was in a desperate situation, just tried his best to cut down a few soldiers of the Wuping army, and was about to retreat towards the stone steps, but saw a shocking scene.

Tian Meng, the nephew who was supposed to guard the east city gate, appeared here with a pale face, the face that was originally called handsome was unrecognizable, and even the two ears were cut off by Qi Gen, and the wound was bleeding terribly...... Death! The east gate was taken away by Uncle Peng...... Madame, Madame......"

Before the words fell, Tian Meng had exhausted the last trace of strength, and his body fell backwards, like a puppet with a broken line, rolling down the stone steps without knowing whether he was alive or .....dead.
