"Siege!"

Yang Zhao passed the order.

Soldiers by your side, move fast.

However, Yang Zhao's siege was not a strong attack by building a ladder, but suppressed by firepower, and the thunderbolt car prepared the explosives and threw them on the city tower.

Call!

Dozens of explosives rushed up to the Xiapi City Tower, although the city tower is very high, but the height that the Thunderbolt can hit is not low.

"Let's go!"

Zang Ba snorted.

All the soldiers, including Tao Qian and others, quickly fled under the city tower at this time, but as soon as they walked around for a while, they only heard a deafening explosion.

Some of the soldiers, who were not walking fast, were blown up on the spot.

The sound of screams was heard after the explosion.

Those Xuzhou soldiers who escaped in time and dodged the explosives, looked back at this time, saw the scene of the explosion, and couldn't help but swallow saliva, and the scene of flesh and blood flying made them tremble.

Cao Bao was also hit hard by a soldier who was blown up, and almost rolled down the stairs of the city tower, looking back at this time, he was shocked: "That special weapon, it's really so terrifying!" ”

In fact, it was the first time they had seen with their own eyes how powerful explosives were.

In the past, Yang Zhao fought in Yanzhou, they didn't go to watch the battle, and when they invaded Langya, before the fight started, Zhuge Xuan surrendered directly, and the people in Xuzhou did not have the opportunity to see the power of explosives.

Most of the people were shocked today, and those soldiers who were shaken in their hearts wanted to surrender even more at this time.

"Hurry back, our walls are hard, and Yang Zhao can't break them!"

Tao Qian quickly came back to his senses in shock, and first ordered the soldiers to retreat from the city tower.

The soldiers heard this and hurriedly retreated.

But as soon as he retreated for a while, the deafening sound sounded in the city tower again, and the city walls were shaken, and the rubble was splashed, but the impact on the city tower was indeed not very big, and it did not hurt the roots.

"Come a few who are not afraid of death, go to the city tower, find a corner and stare down, prevent the enemy from using this weapon to cover, take the opportunity to set up a ladder to climb the city tower, and those who can come back alive will be rewarded!"

Zang Ba hid on the edge of the stairs and shouted: "If you can't come back, your relatives at home are my relatives!" ”

"I'll go!"

Immediately, a few soldiers who were not afraid of death responded, and under the heavy reward, there will be brave men.

When they had received their consent, they bent down and hid under the female wall, and walked quickly to both sides of the wall, came to a corner, and looked cautiously downward.

Then there were explosives, which were thrown up, and the deafening sound, echoed around them, and the ears were all buzzing.

"Xiapi City Tower, who designed and built it?"

Yang Zhao raised his head and looked at it from afar, sighed and said, "It's too strong!" ”

They blew up several rounds in a row, the effect was not very good, and the city wall could not be blown up, Tao Qian also led his troops to retreat, without direct defense, let them bomb, anyway, they couldn't blow up.

The explosives made are actually not powerful enough, after all, the level of this era is like this.

"Lord, cover with explosives and attack the city with a ladder!"

Jia Xu suggested.

Since you can't blow up the city tower, then use the ladder to climb it and kill into the city.

Yang Zhao thought for a while and said, "Go up the cloud ladder!" ”

Li Tong received the order, led 5,000 soldiers, carried more than 10 ladders, approached in the direction of the city tower, and quickly completed the erection of the ladders.

"General, the ladder is here!"

The soldiers who were staring in the corner, who were not blown up, shouted loudly when they saw this.

"It's really coming!"

Zang Ba secretly thought that his prediction was unprecedentedly accurate, and shouted: "All go out to fight, since the enemy wants to climb the tower, he must not dare to bombard again." ”

Facts have proved that Yang Zhao really didn't dare to bombard after Li Tong and their ladder were erected.

5,000 people ascended first as the vanguard, and 10,000 people pressed the formation, climbing up the ladder at any time.

Zang Ba and Sun Guan first led the troops to launch a counterattack, smashing the wood and stones used to defend the city against the ladders, and a large number of arrows rained down, shooting at the climbing soldiers from top to bottom.

Cao Bao and them soon joined the battlefield.

Tao Qian saw that his opportunity to counterattack had come, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and excitedly returned to the city tower to command, and suppressed the enemy who was going to enter the city.

"Shield!"

Li Tong shouted.

The soldiers besieging the city below raised their shields to resist the rain of arrows, but the wood and stones that fell down were not shields that could resist them, and the city towers in Xiapi were very high and not easy to climb.

Several strong attacks, thousands of people died, but they were not able to attack.

When Jia Xu saw this, he sighed: "Who designed this city tower in Xiapi?" ”

He also let out a sigh, similar to Yang Zhao's emotion, a simple strong attack, it is difficult to attack, no wonder Cao Cao and Lu Bu were in a stalemate outside Xiapi City for so long.

"Lord, Mingjin!"

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "If the stalemate continues, the losses will be more serious." ”

Yang Zhao said helplessly: "Mingjin! ”

Clang!

Hearing the order to collect the troops, Li Tong shouted: "Retreat!" ”

The besieging soldiers, having lost more than a thousand men, had to retreat.

"We held on!"

Tao Qian cheered excitedly: "We actually held it!" ”

The result of this battle was something he had never imagined, and the soldiers who were going to surrender before were suddenly invigorated, and their morale, which had fallen to zero, finally had an upward trend.

Yang Zhao, who couldn't even be stopped by the Yuan family, was blocked by them, and this battle could make them carnival.

"Lord, go back!" Zhao Yu reminded.

"Yes, get out!"

Tao Qian found that he had carried away too much, and they gathered on the city tower again, as long as they bombed again, they would definitely die.

They all retreated in the blink of an eye, and when they reached the bottom of the tower, they cheered excitedly again to celebrate the success of the battle.

Yang Zhao didn't continue the bombing, but he could hear the laughter of Tao Qian and the others, and said helplessly: "They seem to be very happy!" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "It's really worth being happy to be able to block our strong attack, but in this way, it will be more difficult for us to attack Xiapi, has the lord thought of any other way?" ”

"Flooding!"

Yang Zhao turned his head, looked at Surabaya next to him, shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the water flow in Surabaya is not much now, and it is not turbulent, otherwise it can be flooded to break the city." ”

Jia Xu agreed: "Flooding is feasible, but it will also cause some bad consequences, such as moving the villagers near Xiapi, otherwise the homes will be destroyed and the crops will be flooded, which is very inconsistent with the benevolence and righteousness of the lord in Xuzhou." ”

Yang Zhao said: "That's right! But before the flooding, let's try it with other methods, a three-bow bed crossbow, and bombard the city gates! ”

"Bed crossbow, push it up!"

Pan Feng followed Yang Zhao to fight for the first time, so he had to show himself well, commanded the soldiers who controlled the bed crossbow, aimed the arrow shaft in the direction of the city gate, and then gave an order, and the arrow shaft rushed out.
