This time, the siege of Jinguan City was larger than any previous siege of Sichuan and Shu, and from the very beginning, the official army showed its own strength to the defenders and horses, and the fierce side of the battle.

The whistling stones flew like hail and smashed down on all parts of the city, making the strong-entrenched walls tremble, and the great patches of the walls fell off for them, and the defenders everywhere turned pale and frightened.

But this is just an appetizer, after throwing dozens of boulders, causing considerable momentum, suddenly, the big stones thrown by the stone thrower were replaced by scattered small stones, such as a clumpen, like a fist-sized stone suddenly disintegrated from the air, scattered in all directions, and smashed into the general who was shrinking and retreating.

At this moment, many of the defending generals fell into bad luck, and many people were smashed by the stones falling from their heads and bleeding, screaming and falling; Some others resolutely hid in buildings such as the arrow tower, and only then did they survive.

Some of the generals who were already full of fear and reluctance even turned around and ran directly to the city, discarding the weapons in their hands and the armor on their bodies as they ran, and they planned to flee without a fight.

It's just that before they could run down a few steps, they were blocked by a few gloomy men of the prison army who had been waiting there earlier: "If you dare to escape from the battle, you will be killed!" ”

Before the words fell, the sword was already rising, and after a few clicks, the deserters could not even beg for mercy, and they had already fallen in a pool of blood.

This scene happened in front of everyone's eyes, and it scared many soldiers who had the same thoughts, but had not yet put them into action, and their bodies stiffened, and they did not dare to have any more thoughts of escape.

"You have all heard clearly, there is no way out of our whole city, as long as the city is broken, those barbarians will kill us and our families without mercy. You are not working hard for the Tang Gate, but defending the city for yourself and your family! ”

The leading general took the opportunity to shout loudly, encouraging the morale of the army, and said, and glanced at the prison army not far away from time to time, these words were taught to him by the latter, "Their stones are limited, and it is impossible to hit us all the time!" ”

As if to confirm the truth of what he said, soon, the shower of stone rain finally stopped, and in an instant, the sound of drums and trumpets outside became fierce again, and then the army from the south, east, west, and west rushed up, taking advantage of the panic of the defenders of the city to retreat, and quickly erected a ladder under the city.

At the same time, there were countless archers, aiming at the city above, and launched a wave of upward fire, pouring thousands of random arrows towards the city one after another, not seeking to kill or wound the enemy, but only to drive them out of the defensive positions and create better conditions for the soldiers who would ascend the city next.

That's not all, under several city walls, there are more than a dozen cowhide digging trucks are moving against the walls.

Covered by the curtains, dozens of sappers with pickaxes and shovels dug through the heels of the city walls, trying to destroy the defense line of Jinguan Castle from the foundation.

As long as they really dig out a large piece of space, and then stuff it with flammable materials such as grass and trees and burn it, the damage to the entire city wall will be huge.

Maybe when the time comes, as long as the collision car hits a few more times, the eight-zhang high, two-zhang thick city wall will collapse and collapse......

At this time, there were also more than a dozen crashed cars, driven and guarded by thousands of soldiers, coming at full speed towards the city gates.

The huge striking wood with two people around them and copper and iron on their heads slammed into the city gate, so that the defenders above the city gate felt a shock coming, making them all stagger.

As for the huge wooden pole that was originally used to stand against the back of the city gate, it quickly broke in a creaking sound.

But even so, the gates were far from being knocked open.

Because thousands of soldiers were gathering inside the city gate, they not only filled countless boulders and bricks behind the gate to stabilize the gate, but also prepared one after another knife carts to stop the gate.

As long as the officers and soldiers really bang on the door and enter, they will be greeted by these sharp knives.

What's more, the defenders above also began to counterattack, and bottles full of oil and spirits were dropped by them, smashed on top of the crash, and the liquid splashed in all directions, falling on each cart soldier.

Then, one by one, the torches that were lit, and even the handfuls of dry firewood, fell straight down, igniting the oil and spirits on the soldiers' bodies.

Screams rang out from the mouths of these soldiers, who threw themselves desperately and rolled to the ground, never caring to continue to pound the city gates.

More torches fell on the crash logs, setting both the car and the wood on fire......

Offensive and defensive battles have always been cruel, and you come and go, making moves to each other.

While the attack in front of the city gate was in trouble, the officers and troops in several other places were also caught in the challenge of setbacks.

At the base of the city wall, the generals who were relying on the curtains to block the excavation suddenly let out a series of screams, and countless fine needles popped out from the ground, sweeping the entire enclosed area at once.

This made many soldiers even have nowhere to hide, and all of them were firmly hit by the violent needle rain.

Then, a few moments later, all of them fell, all bleeding and dying on the spot.

At the head of the city, a huge pendulum-shaped giant axe was manipulated to cut sideways left and right, whistling and slashing at the ladder that had been attached to the human ants.

Under the action of centrifugal force, the sharp axe sank vigorously, and after a few blows, several ladders were cut off, and the people above them fell to the ground with a bang.

And without the protection of the barriers above and on the left and right, in the face of the rain of arrows at the head of the city, the remaining soldiers could only scream and fall to the ground.

All these changes came from the huge axe that suddenly appeared at the head of the city, which was carefully crafted by the inner hall of the Tang Gate and hidden from the real killing weapon.

It only took a few people to keep pulling and running behind the city, and they could mobilize the steel axe to reverberate throughout the edge of the city wall, cutting off everything that stood in the way.

The Tang Sect, perhaps there is not much threat in real combat, but the various weapons they have developed internally can still inflict great damage on the enemies who move troops against them.

This is also the fundamental reason why they can gain a foothold in northern Sichuan, which is full of barbarians, for a hundred years, and can still firmly grasp the entire Yizhou.

This is also the reason why Sun Ning did not move for a long time and did not launch a general offensive until today.

Because he knew very well that if he really wanted to storm Jinguan City, as long as the defenders were united, the price would be quite tragic......

But now, the arrow is off the string, so the only way to do it is to keep moving forward and fill it with more lives.
