In the third year of Taiwu, on April 8, the Taishan army came to cover the sky.

The whole army was divided into four sides, with a total of 60,000 troops, and a total of 16 armies were defeated in positions less than half a mile away from each gate.

In this battle, the commanders of all armies lined up their flags in the front army, commanding the siege battles on all sides, and before the battle, these people spontaneously wrote military orders, not to break the city, and vowed not to return the army.

Zhang Chong was greatly moved and wrote a poem for this battle:

"The wind and rain in the north are yellow, and millions of heroes go to Luoyang."

"Zhaizi China is turning the world upside down and generous."

"It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord."

"If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old, and the right way in the world is the vicissitudes of life."

Write a poem about the three armies, the three armies are excited, and they exclaim:

"If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old, and the right way in the world is the vicissitudes of life."

And so the new historical psalm begins here.

Since He Jin's disappearance, the ministers outside the palace have jointly invited Liu Bian, but Liu Bian's mind will collapse and he can't be the master at all.

I saw that under the clear sky, there was no cloud, Liu Wei climbed high and looked at it, only to see the dense spears like a forest, more than ten miles wide, endless.

From April 8, the offensive of the Taishan army did not stop.

But although He Jin did not kill him, he kept him claustrophobic in the palace and was not allowed to touch him in any way. The long life of living alone has already destroyed Liu Wei's mind.

Even Liu Wei wouldn't have survived if it wasn't for the Queen Mother's bitter begging for He Jin.

This time, the Taishan army learned from the previous experience of attacking Kim Yong Cheng and believed that it should use both positive and odd means to attack the city.

He lamented to the little yellow door beside him:

"My Han family is going to die here today."

……

Stone-throwing carts and ballistas bombarded the city day and night, and then blocked the connection between Luoshui and the moat, and then moved forward with a brand car, and the people and the brave army filled the ditch with soil.

The Taishan army is all dressed in yellow, holding apricot flags fluttering, and the military formation is neat, so in Liu Wei's opinion, they are like patches of neat wheat fields.

This credit is due to Cai Yong, who said in the early years of Emperor Ling that this section of the city wall was rotten and needed to be built.

……

After the collapse of this section of the city wall, the Taishan army mobilized two armies in this direction, and then whenever the Han army wanted to repair the city wall, the Taishan army under the city would shoot with a strong crossbow.

The moat was empty.

Under the cover of the four armies of the Taishan Army, 100,000 people filled the Gyeonggi ravine in one day.

Although this news was blocked, it was too vigorous, and it soon circulated in the upper echelons of Kyoto.

There are also some people who suspected that the emperor was pretending to be crazy, and also quietly said that He Jin's party had been eliminated, and now the imperial court was waiting for His Majesty to come out and preside over the overall situation.

He asked what was going on left and right, but no one answered.

After the Han army suffered huge casualties, they saw that Mount Tai had no intention of attacking, so they gave up.

In the end, he was finally willing to come out of the room, and hurriedly climbed the tall building to look out of the city.

On April 10, the Taishan army raised 100,000 people from Gyeonggi, spending tens of millions of dollars a day, and mobilized people to fill the ravines.

That little yellow door actually entered the palace recently, and the individuals around Liu Wei had already been killed by He Jin.

There is a grapevine that when the ministers went to invite Liu Bian, Liu Bian actually sat on the pile of and played, and even when the ministers appeared, he threw at these people.

But at that time, the court was not moved at all, and it was not until the Yellow Turban Chaos that Liu Hong hurriedly asked the craftsman to resume the construction.

Because of the rush of time and insufficient allocation, the quality of this section of the city wall is far inferior to that of the old section.

That section is a section of the city wall on the east side of the valley gate, and the reason why it is so unbombed is because this section of the city wall was built later, and the Taishan army is targeted to attack this city wall.

Hearing this news, the four fields of Gyeonggi responded to the gathering, helping the old and the young, and carrying water and pulp to join the army.

One of the biggest siege battles in history has finally begun.

But this man ate a meal of and stopped fantasizing.

On April 9, Taishan Army dammed the Luo River and opened a canal in the east of the city. Within a day, the moat outside Kyoto was re-dredged to Rakusui.

At the beginning of the war, the drums outside the city were stirring, and even the countless imperial tombs on the northern mountain seemed to tremble.

Seeing this, Liu Wei's tears finally couldn't be suppressed.

First, on the 9th, artillery trucks bombarded the northeast corner of Kyoto.

It turns out that the anointed wheat field that has been nourishing the Han family will be all owned by others.

After that, the major events in Kyoto were almost discussed between the Minister and Zhu Jun, and even the Queen Mother rarely participated.

But this wheat field is also too big, and too sober.

So this war related to the future of the Han family has nothing to do with the Han family.

Everyone knew that the emperor was crazy.

He asked Xiao Huangmen, who served him, to take him to the tall building on the North Palace, and when he saw the purge of the thief army outside the city, he lamented this.

Liu Wei in the North Palace was sad and panicked.

Today, somehow, Liu Wei suddenly came to his senses.

At this point, the outer part of Kyoto City is a smooth road.

From this day on, the Tarzan army began to launch a direct attack on Kyoto.

Because the city of Kim Yong Castle occupied by the Tarzan army was located in the northwest corner of Kyoto, the west and north sides of Kyoto became the main attack areas of the Tarzan army in the first wave of attacks.

The first to be attacked was not the Sanmon Gate on the west side of Kyoto, but the Mizumon Gate on the side of the ditch.

This water gate used to be a ditch and moat in the suburbs, and it was used to pull up boats to transport supplies during the day and put it down at night. And generally speaking, the weakest point of the city's defense is these water gates.

The city gates on land are all designed with a composite design of urn city, while the water gate is an iron fence, and even the moat for defense is emptied.

What's worse is that the people who designed the water gate at that time must not have expected that the moat would be emptied one day, so the falling iron fence did not touch the ground at all, but left a gap between two waists.

As a result, this huge hole in the city defense was exposed to the eyes of the Taishan army.

The Taishan army in charge of this side will be Xie Bi, the commander of the Wei Bo army, who was overjoyed when he saw this loophole, and hurriedly ordered Xie Kun to lead 800 soldiers to attack.

When Xie Kun jumped down the ditch with a three-layer armor and an ironclad soldier holding a card, he realized that something was wrong.

It turned out that the people had only filled in the middle and front sections of the ditch, and the section near the city wall was not filled in because it was a gentle slope upward.

The location of the water gate is a separate dug waterway, and although the water has been emptied, the ditch land left behind is wet.

So, when Xie Kun and these trappers jumped down one after another, the heavy iron armor led them all the way down.

At this time, Xie Kun panicked and shouted:

"Get out of here."

The friendly troops on the slope hurriedly threw down their ropes to pull the ironclads up.

But at this time, a wave of Han archers poured out from both sides of the water gate and began to shoot wildly at the Taishan army on the mouth of the water gate ditch.

It turned out that Zhu Jun was aware of the weakness of the water gate when he was arranging the city defense of Kyoto, and he built two chest walls on both sides of the water gate to clamp the ditch and channel of the entire water gate.

As soon as the enemy army tries to attack from the water gate, the archers on both sides of the ditch can strike at the enemy army.

Therefore, when Xie Kun and the others attacked, the Han army defenders on this side of the city quickly dispatched a group of crossbowmen to ambush on both sides of the chest wall of the ditch.

At this time, there were many bows and arrows above, and the Taishan army on the ramp was holding up cards with difficulty to cover the retreat of friendly troops.

At this time, a huge boulder suddenly fell from the top of the city.

These are the rockeries in the former minister's house, and they were later requisitioned to the city by Zhu Jun, which will be used to deal with the Taishan army.

Previously, bows and arrows could hardly do damage to Xie Kun's trapped ironclad soldiers, and this caused the boulders on the city to fall, killing dozens of people instantly.

And the boulder blocked the entrance to the water gate by the way, so Xie Kun and the others could only withdraw if they were unwilling.

In this trial, more than 40 soldiers of Wei Bojun's trappers were killed and wounded, which can be regarded as a big loss.

However, Wei Bojun's temptation was slightly frustrated, and the Flying Tigers' attack in the north was unusually smooth.

The previous Kim Yong Fortress has been left to the Shooters, who control the commanding heights of the entire region and vent their firepower.

The Flying Tigers began to attack the Natsumon and Tanimon gates north of Kyoto.

Since the whole army had a hearty breakfast in the morning, the various departments began to assemble outside the two gates, among which because the Xia Gate was the closest to Kim Yong in the northwest corner, so it was taken care of by Xu Huang.

So not long after the war began, the Xiamen guards asked Zhu Jun for help.

At that time, Zhu Jun was lying on the Hu bed, knowing that Xiamen was tight, and immediately ordered Zhou Ang to take a team of military sharpshooters to support Xiamen, focusing on shooting the enemy's soldiers.

Zhou Ang didn't dare to slack off, and rushed to Xiamen with a hundred people, but fortunately, Xiamen was not far from the high-rise building where Zhu Jun was resting, so after walking more than a mile, the reinforcements had already arrived at Xiamen.

At this time, countless chariots were arranged under the city of Xiamen, and countless officials held cards or hit the city gate, or shot the Han army exposed at the head of the city.

Then more than a dozen ladders hung on the head of the city, and in the roar of the friendly army, a group of Flying Tiger Army infantry rushed to the head of the city.

Not far away, the shooting army on the city of Kim Yong also quietly shot the Han army on the city.

The Han army on the summer gate, on the one hand, had to carry the card to resist the arrows of the shooting army, and on the other hand, they had to use the long pole to push the cloud cart hanging on the head of the city.

The few brave ones who wanted to fall down the city were also shot by the Taishan army.

At this time, the city was full of the smell of dung and blood, and everyone was huddled together, helpless.

And when Zhou Ang rushed over, he heard the screams and wails on the summer gate, and his heart was nervous, and suddenly he saw a string of human heads thrown down from the city.

At first, Zhou Ang thought that he was killing the Taishan army on the head of the city, but when people recognized it, it was the Han army on the city tower who died.

At this time, Zhou Ang realized that something was wrong.

At this moment, there must have been great chaos in the city, and people began to kill indiscriminately, and at this stage, it was often a precursor to the collapse of an army.

At this time, Zhou Ang's mind changed rapidly, and finally thought of Zhu Jun lying on the Hu bed, suddenly pulled out the knife, and yelled at the robe behind him:

"Kill them all with me."

The people below have always watched how the people above do it, and at this moment, Zhou Ang took the lead in the charge, and these elite sharpshooters naturally doubled their courage, and they killed directly along the horse's face.

As soon as Zhou Ang came up, he shot and killed several crazy Han soldiers, and then shouted:

"I'm Sima Zhouang of Canglongmen, now it's up to me to take over the city wall, whoever dares to kill indiscriminately, cut it down."

Zhou Ang's name, these people have heard it.

In the past, everyone laughed at him for being slippery, but now when he hears this name, he feels very affectionate, and he really listens to the order.

So, under Zhou Ang's sitting, the morale of the Han army in the city was slightly boosted.

At the same time, the 100 people also climbed the watchtower on the city tower and the Taishan army on the northwest side of Kim Yong City to shoot at each other.

These people are all elite crossbowmen, warriors who have been drawn from tens of thousands of people, and they are all taught to shoot for the princes of the Han family on weekdays.

At this time, the two sides shot down, and the shooting force couldn't take advantage of it at all.

Without the bow and arrow suppression in the northwest, the Han army was able to free up their hands to knock down those ladders.

To the distant Taishan army, they shot with a rhubarb crossbow. Shoot at those who can be seen under the city, and shoot them with bows and crossbows, and those who have already run to the bottom of the city use sassalwood and fall stones.

As for the carriage downstairs in the city, the Han army also threw torches down one after another, burning more than a dozen one after another.

The battle lasted until the afternoon, and Xu Huang, who was arrayed outside the city, saw that there was really no possibility of going to the city, so he withdrew his troops.

This time, the actual death toll on both sides was not high.

But it was the most tiring day since the start of the war. After repelling the attack of the Taishan army, many people were tired and lay down at the head of the city.

It's just that they are tired, but everyone including Zhou Ang is happy.

Because they saw the confidence to hold Kyoto, the Tarzan army was not much invincible.

Immediately, Zhou Ang promised the guards on the valley gate that he would ask the marshal for a reward and let the brothers eat a good meal.

As a result, on the wall of the summer gate, there were cheers and high morale.

……

At a time when the city was being attacked on all sides.

The digging team, composed of the most capable craftsmen in the army, also began to dig in full force in the barracks in the northeast corner.

That's right, the Tarzan army decided to go to Kyoto.

After inspecting the topography of Kyoto Castle, the craftsmen of the previous craftsman camp decided that the northeastern part of Kyoto was compacted and there were no waterways nearby, so it was the most suitable place to attack the castle.

Therefore, Zhang Chong ordered them to dig three roads in the northeast, leading to the north, northeast corner, and east of Kyoto.

The person in charge of this siege is Ren Jun, who has been transferred to construction and field affairs since joining the Taishan Army, and has rich experience in civil engineering.

Ren Jun began digging on March 28, when the armies on all sides besieged the fortress group in the suburbs of Kyoto, and under the cover of the noisy battlefield, the first spade began in the Taishan military craftsman camp.

Thanks to the R&D and manufacturing of Wang Shang and a group of generals, the craftsmanship level of the Taishan Army is very high, the efficiency is very fast, and the passage in the camp is quickly dug through.

Moreover, Ren Jun determined that this area was suitable for operation, and although the low soil was still wet, as long as the moat outside the city was emptied, there would be no problem.

With Ren Jun's confirmation, Zhang Chong ordered Guo Mo, the commander in the northeast, to build a fortress near the tunnel and extend it to Kyoto.

In this way, the three tunnels move slowly and firmly towards Kyoto.

And Zheng Tai at the head of the city knew nothing about this crisis.

At this time, he was anxiously scolding the generals.
