Whew!

Huo Qiji gave an order, and the arrows contaminated with fire oil fell from the sky like a torrential downpour.

On the city walls, inside the outpost.

Murong Yan was resting, but was suddenly woken up by a burst of noise.

"Dashuai, it's not good!"

The herald ran over panting and knocked on the door.

During the campaign, Murong Yan had always slept very lightly, so he quickly woke up, opened his eyes, and opened the door: "What's wrong?" ”

"Just tonight, the brothers found signs that the tiles of the city wall had been pried again, so they chiseled them open, and it turned out that..."

"It's full of buckets of tung oil and bales of hay!"

Rumble!

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, falling in Murong Yan's mind.

Hit the trick!

He panicked instantly, thinking that the street battle was the ambush of the opposing commander, but he didn't think about it, it wasn't at all!

The real killer move of the other party is tung oil and hay under the city wall!

The other side has already calculated, they will be deflated in the street fighting, and then retreat to the city wall.

This... After Murong Yan thought clearly about the cause and effect, she was already cold all over her body for a while.

The other party could even predict this, such a terrible opponent, can he really win?

Syllable!

Murong Yan gave himself a big mouth and instantly came to his senses.

Now is not the time to doubt your own abilities, but to lead the army out of crisis!

"Go and check the gates to see if they can still be opened!"

"I've seen it, for some reason, the city gate is firmly locked, and it can't be opened from the inside, so it is estimated that it can only be opened by brute force."

Damn it!

This is also in the calculations of the other party!

Murong Yan only felt that he had fallen into the trap of the other party and was constrained everywhere.

He also understood why the other party did not give up the city gate after it was completely breached, but wanted to give up the city gate when it was not completely scrapped.

Because the other party has put a locking device similar to the Heavenly Machine Divine Craftsman in the city gate, even if they can manipulate the city gate from the inside after entering the city, they will not be able to open it for a while.

In this way, the dilapidated gate can temporarily trap them in the city for a while.

And this period of time, it is enough!

Murong Yan was cold all over his body, and shouted loudly: "Where are the siege warriors!" ”

"Call the siege wrestlers and fetch the battering ram!"

"Crash through the gates!"

Swish!

However, it was not the siege warriors who responded to him, but the rockets that fell from the sky.

Shout!

With a single sound, the herald in front of him was shot by an arrow and killed him.

This is nothing, the arrow seems to be stained with tung oil, causing the rocket to burn continuously after killing.

Fortunately, it was winter, the climate was cold, and even if the walls were full of tung oil and hay, it would take some time for the fire to burn.

Rumble!

Countless rockets fell from the sky, and for a while, the city walls were already full of sparks.

Seeing this, Murong Yan shouted while dodging: "Siege wrestlers, go and crash open the city gate!" ”

"The rest of the people threw out the tung oil and hay!"

For a time, the city wall was in chaos.

In the distance, Huo Qiji looked at the bodies that were constantly being consumed by the flames, his eyes were unwavering, without the slightest pity.

If he didn't do this, in a few days, the killing and torture suffered by the Great Qianren would be a hundred times greater.

"Five thousand archers, rush and kill with Ben Shuai!"

"Watch the distance, don't get consumed by the flames, we only put arrows on the edge! After the arrows are released, they will leave immediately, dare to stay, and be dealt with by military law. ”

As soon as these words were uttered, the five thousand archers immediately set out and came under the city walls.

The few remaining siege warriors in the Northern Yan Iron Cavalry were holding the battering ram and slamming the city gate like crazy.

Now, they are the hope of the 300,000 iron horsemen of Beiyan!

If they don't break through the gates today, I'm afraid more than half of them will be killed or wounded!

However, just as they were burying their heads in the collision, arrows suddenly fell from the sky.

Whew!

Someone panicked, and came out before he had time to put on heavy armor.

At this moment, he became a living target and was shot by arrows one by one.

"Where are the heavily armored guards? Obstruct! ”

Murong Yan was hysterical, looking like crazy.

If all the siege warriors were lost here, there would be no hope of opening the walls, and they would die a terrible death!

Seeing one half-human-high shield after another being erected and built into a shield wall, Huo Qiji sighed and said, "Collect the troops and return to the camp!" ”

Their bow tactics can then have some effect when the opponent does not react, and when the opponent reacts, with a shield in hand, the bow and arrow can cause little damage.

In that case, it is better to withdraw immediately, save the arrows, and leave everything to the fire.

Rumble!

Half an hour later, the raging flames climbed up the walls of Daqian, licking the dark night.

Bang!

In a loud roar, the siege warriors held the battering ram and took the lead in rushing out of the Qiandu City, which had turned into a sea of fire!

Then there was Murong Yan, and the elite of the 300,000 iron horsemen of Beiyan!

……

Early the next morning.

Outside the city of Qiandu, looking at the city wall of Qiandu that had been reduced to ruins, Murong Yan not only did not feel the slightest joy in his heart, but felt that his heart was dripping blood!

After counting the number of soldiers, he almost fainted.

There are only 150,000 people left!

In other words, last night's fire forcibly took away nearly 150,000 of their soldiers!

Of the remaining 150,000 people, there are about tens of thousands of wounded.

Manpower is also needed to care for the wounded.

After a full fight, now, the combatants that can be used in his hands have changed from 300,000 iron cavalry at the beginning to about 100,000!

This is undoubtedly a devastating blow to them.

"The Great Commander! Don't let me know who you are! ”

"Otherwise, I, Murong Yan, swear that I will crush your bones and scatter ashes!"

"The army listens to my orders, enters the city, and sets foot on the imperial capital!"

When the exhausted army heard this, they barely bothered to brace themselves.

That's the Great Emperor Capital!

In their statements of the Northern Yan dynasties, it is a great achievement that can be compared with the sealing of Zen in the Yayu Snow Mountain.

Unexpectedly, they would be witnesses to this feat today.

……

On the walls of the palace, Huo Qiji listened to the sound of horses' hooves coming slowly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

The time, place and people were all used by him.

But he still failed to destroy the other party's army, so I can only say that the destiny is not mine!

"The whole army listens to the order and prepares to defend the city!"

Huo Qiji gave an order, and a response suddenly sounded behind him.

In everyone's voice, it seems that they are looking at death as if they are at home!

This will be the final decisive battle between Daqian and Beiyan!

The future of these two countries will be decided.
