Volume 1 Strife and Troubled Times Chapter 88 The Final War

Returning to the camp in the west of Guangmu City, the evening banquet was over. Zhang Songqi took Zhang Gengxiao and Zhang Pu back to the camp prepared for them by Wang Rong.

Zhang Songqi sat down and sent Zhang Pu out to prepare a decanting soup for him. His misty eyes instantly sharpened when he saw his daughter leave the tent.

Zhang Songqi asked his eldest son in a low voice: "Have you noticed the battle during the day?" The last canister of fire oil actually burst into flames?! ”

Yes, the explosion was blazing, of course Zhang Gengxiao saw the situation at that time, he really didn't think that the small oil tank would be so powerful.

"Yes, father, I've used this oil canister too, and it's rare that it's so powerful." Zhang Gengxiao looked puzzled.

Zhang Songqi smiled at the corner of his mouth and said: "This can only mean one thing, this kid Zhong Ming has found a new weapon, and it is very powerful. ”

Zhang Gengxiao was even more puzzled: "But I didn't see any new objects in him?" ”

Zhang Songqi's curiosity was aroused, and he said, "There will be a battle tomorrow, you send a few personal soldiers to carefully observe Zhong Ming's personal guards." Today's last attack was made by them. ”

Zhang Gengxiao nodded in understanding, and at this time, Zhang Pu had already walked in with a large bowl of decanting soup, and Zhang Songqi's eyes returned to confusion.

The night passed quickly, and when Wang Rong opened his eyes, he could clearly hear the rhythmic sound of war drums.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

Wang Rong quickly got up, his armor did not take off at all, he pressed the handle of his saber in his hand, and came to the wall under the escort of Wang Hao and his personal guards.

I saw that five miles outside the wall, 50,000 soldiers had already completed the formation. The 20,000 bear-running cavalry abandoned their horses, armed with short spears and shields, and transformed into hoplites. The remaining 3,000 bears marched to guard the camp and take care of the wounded.

The 30,000 tribal soldiers lined up neatly and murderously, Yu Sheshi and An did have some ability, and they trained the tribal soldiers in a few days.

And Wang Rong's eyes were full of worry, because more than a dozen behemoth-like siege tower vehicles were already standing five miles away. Although the workmanship is very rough, this is a siege tower after all, and it is a great threat to the wall.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the cold wind of early winter with a hint of chill rolled up a strong north wind, blowing the black and gold Yongzi banner on the head of the city to a crackling sound. After a while, tiny snowflakes fell from the sky.

With the sound of war drums, 30,000 tribal soldiers held swords, spears, shields, carried flying ladders, and pushed siege tower carts and ladder carts to approach the camp.

At this time, on the wall, there were 500 people in the Central Governor's Mansion who had changed into long-handled axes, which were the Jianyong Commanders under Zhang Songqi, each with big shoulders and round waists, burly figures, and great strength. They wore armor, iron helmets, and crossbows on their backs.

Wang Rong didn't understand Zhang Songqi's intention of sending this elite force. However, he didn't have time to pay attention to these, the 30,000 bearded soldiers in the distance were quickly divided into two parts, and the 10,000 people in the front of the bows and arrows on their bodies rushed to sixty paces away from the wall, and suddenly stopped under the officer's order, and then quickly raised their horned bows and fired arrows at the head of the city.

The 20,000 men in the rear continued to carry or push the siege equipment, and continued to move forward slowly.

"The arrows are coming, defend!"

Under the command of officers at all levels, the officers and soldiers of all units took measures to defend themselves against arrows, some raised shields, some withdrew under the wall, and some hid in the battlements.

10,000 Bearded Archers shot the arrows in their hands continuously, shooting five rounds in an instant, and 50,000 arrows were densely inserted all over the wall, and the Yong soldiers on the wall had no way to fight back.

"Bed crossbow ready to shoot!"

The bed crossbows erected throughout the walls began to wield power, and the bed crossbow operators forcibly pulled the crossbow strings and stone bullets at the risk of being hit by arrows.

With the "Bang! Boom! Boom! The sound sounded, and hundreds of stones came towards the face of the bearded archers, instantly setting off a bloody storm in the large array of tens of thousands of people.

Ashina Kuro looked at the soldiers around him who were knocked over by stones, and his heart beat wildly, but as the commander of these ten thousand archers, he couldn't be cowardly. He could only stubbornly hold on to the casualties, directing the remaining thousands of surviving archers to continue firing arrows.

Fortunately, the 20,000 siege troops behind arrived, and on the tall siege tower carts, the bearded archers on the top platform condescended and poured arrows at the head of the wall.

Wang Rong quickly commanded the bed crossbow to attack, and the scattered stones did no harm to the siege tower made of logs, preventing it from approaching the wall.

The siege troops quickly leaned the flying ladder and cloud ladder against the wall, and their attack made the wolfed archers under the wall useless. These archers put away their bows and arrows, and armed with scimitars, followed the besieging troops.

The head of the wall was not baptized by a large area of arrows, and the soldiers of the central Governor's Mansion on the wall quickly got up and lined up, launching various attacks at various ladders.

The soldiers of the Western Governor's Mansion were armed with bows and crossbows and launched attacks on the enemy under the walled walls, or fired at the mane-bearded archers on the siege carts.

The arrows arced through the air and fell quickly, taking away the lives of a wave of bearded men. The bolts were much more powerful, piercing through the thin leather robes of the mane-bearded archers on the cart, and the struck man-haired archers screamed and fell from the cart, smashing a puddle of blood-colored flesh on the ground.

Wang Rong soon noticed the movements of Zhang Songqi's Jianyong battalion, who were holding long axes, condescendingly, swinging them vigorously, and slashing them with a fierce axe.

"Click! Click! Click! The top two rungs of the siege ladder were easily cut off in an instant, and the besieging man was soon dumbfounded, he couldn't reach the wall, even if his hands could barely touch the wall, but his feet couldn't climb the wall.

The panicked Bearded Man who stopped there without getting up or down was quickly pushed down the ladder by a fork pole, making it go straight back to the original point, but there was no need to climb the ladder again.

Immediately afterwards, a heavy log fell down the ladder and smashed on the shield held high by the second soldier, and the shield was smashed to pieces, and the soldier was also unsteady on his feet, and rolled downward, rolling and colliding, and brought down five or six soldiers in a row.

The same scene took place on all the siege ladders, whether they were flying ladders or cloud ladders, playing out the same script, with the Warrior Battalion slashing with a long axe, breaking the first two or even three rungs of the ladder, and then rolling wood and stones falling down like hailstones.

The failure to attack for a long time had a great impact on morale, and the tribal soldiers on the ladder were timid in the face of one-sided slaughter. Seeing the cowardice of the soldiers under his command, Ashinas was instantly furious and roared angrily: "Attack me, whoever dares to take a step back, I will kill him!" ”

After roaring, he took the lead in climbing the ladder, and soon he encountered the problems encountered by the others, and his mind spun quickly, and he plunged the short spear in his hand into the wall of the first rung. With one arm exerting force, the scimitar in his hand waved on his head, and he instantly climbed the wall. But he didn't come to his aid, because not every Badbeard soldier had the strength of his arms.

Wang Rong saw that there were still people who could climb the city wall under such circumstances, and the combat effectiveness of the enemy generals was very strong, and four or five soldiers from the Central Governor's Mansion had already fallen at his feet.

With a "bang", Wang Rong pulled out the "10,000 enemies" and rushed quickly towards Ashinastong, who was exerting his might.

Ashinas Tong also saw Wang Rong in fine armor, and knew that he was a general, so he immediately rushed forward with a scimitar.

Wang Rong shouted, "Go and die!" The saber in his hand stabbed Ashinas Tong, this knife was as fast as thunder, and the power was swift.

Ashinas immediately pressed down the scimitar and held down Wang Rong's saber, and the force was also not small.

Seeing Ashinastong's response, Wang Rong sneered, instantly grasped the handle of the knife with his left hand, and raised his arms upward.

Under Ashnas's terrified eyes, Wang Rong picked up the scimitar in his hand, and then swung the knife and slashed.

"Bang!" The nails and leaves were flying, and Ashinas was chopped into two classes by Wang Rong with a knife. The blade entered from his left shoulder, and his right rib came out, and his internal organs flowed to the ground. Ashinas was killed instantly.

At this time, Ashina Kuro, who was under the wall, only saw his son disappear at the head of the ladder and climbed the wall. His heart instantly seemed to be grasped by a big hand, the pain was tense, and he cursed secretly: "This idiot! But he couldn't stop it, so he had to urge the soldiers to quickly enter the city.

The battle situation on the side of the siege ladder is very favorable, but the side of the siege tower is indeed full of dangers.

The building car stood up against the wall of the wall, erected the bridge plate and fell down with a bang, smashing heavily on the wall. The violent tremor shook the soldiers of the Central Governor's Mansion all around.

A group of Xiong Benjun soldiers wearing iron armor and iron helmets and holding short contradictory cards soon rushed out of the building, and there were at least twenty people in the black press, they were tall and strong, their faces were hideous, and their eyes were like wild wolves, revealing a terrifying light.

The Xiong Benjun soldiers ran and jumped on the wall, shouting wildly to kill the Yongjun soldiers. Zhang Gengxiao and the soldiers of the Central Governor's Mansion also roared to meet the battle, and the two sides fought fiercely together in an instant.

A steady stream of Xiong Ben soldiers poured out of the siege tower cars. Worthy of the elite of the Qiangqi Khanate, they were strong, their armor was strong, and they were not afraid of death, and the soldiers of the Central Governor's Mansion led by Zhang Genghuang soon fell into passivity.

There were more and more soldiers on both sides of the wall, coming and going with each other, spears and short spears stabbing each other, ring-headed knives and scimitars slashing at each other. The casualties on both sides became more and more heavy as time went on, and the wounded soldiers who fell to the ground had no chance to stand up at all, and could only be trampled to death.

Wang Rong saw that the situation on Zhang Gengmi's side was not good, and hurriedly brought his personal guards to support, and he shouted: "Captain Zhang! Fall back! ”

When Zhang Gengxiao heard Wang Rong's shout, he stabbed to death a Xiong Benjun soldier who was entanglement with him with a spear, and then retreated with his people and disengaged from the Xiong Benjun soldiers.

Wang Rong saw the opportunity and threw a clay pot in one hand into the crowd of Xiong Benjun who had gathered together. More than 200 clay pots flew over the heads of Zhang Genghuang and his gang and landed in the crowd of Xiong Benjun.

"Coax!" "Coax!" "Coax!"

A violent explosion resounded in Zhang Gengxiao's ears, and the scorching flames filled his vision.

The Xiong Benjun soldiers, who were still arrogant just now, were swept away by the blast wave like pieces of flesh cut by a sharp blade, and then fierce flames stuck to their bodies.

The agonized Kumamoto soldiers scurried around, and soon jumped off the wall. Some of them went back into the carts and set them on fire from the inside. There are also some ruthless ones, knowing that they will not escape death, and fiercely crashed into Zhang Gengxiao's side, but they hung on the spear and were stabbed to death by the spear.

Wang Rong couldn't care about the existence of hidden gunpowder, so he took the soldiers who guarded the capital and named the siege towers one by one.

"Coax!" "Coax!" "Coax!"

The shock wave from the violent explosion rushed the flames of the fire oil into all corners of the siege car, and the soldiers of the Xiong Ben Army inside the car, died under the explosion and flames before they could exert their combat effectiveness. The second and third siege tower vehicles, until the last siege tower vehicle, have ignited fires, forming huge torches, which are magnificent.

Ashina Kuro was more unlucky, he thought that the siege tower car was so strong, there should be no problem, so he stood next to the siege tower car and urged his soldiers to fight.

Then the siege tower car beside him "coax!" The sound fell apart, and the huge log was impartial, directly smashing him into a meat patty.

Ashina Siyuan, who was commanding the battle in the rear, stared blankly at this scene at the wall, he really couldn't imagine how these Yongjun troops managed to burn down such a huge siege tower vehicle.

When Yu Shotshi and An saw the scene in front of him, they closed their eyes unwillingly, he was really heartbroken. In order to paralyze the enemy, he put Xiong Ben's army in the siege tower cart and mixed it with the tribal army to attack the city, so that he could confuse the enemy and think that the siege tower cart was also a tribal soldier.

But the development of events was beyond his expectations, he did not expect that the siege tower car would be destroyed by the enemy, not sabotage, but destruction! The soldiers in the siege tower car couldn't even escape. 10,000 people, my heart hurts!

On the battlefield, the spirit of the Bearded Man was on the verge of collapse. At this moment, the gate of the wall, which had not been opened for a long time, was opened.

First, a person rode out on a high-headed horse, followed by a steady stream of Yongjun cavalry.

The first person was Wang Rong, and the colored war horse under his crotch was Chiyun. Holding a spear in his hand, Wang Rong took the lead and rushed into the crowd of thieves in the chaos. Behind him were the 2,000 township soldiers and cavalry soldiers who could still move in the Western Governor's Mansion.

The appearance of the 2,000 Yongjun cavalry directly made the Bearded people who were in a dilemma between attacking the city or retreating, and they began to flee with their lives.

Wang Rong didn't even look at these miscellaneous soldiers, he had only one goal, that is, the main general who was commanding the battle three miles away.

The two thousand Yongjun cavalry were like a cream knife, easily cutting the bearded man. Yu Sheshi He'an, who was hysterical on the watchtower car, saw the Yongjun cavalry rushing towards him, and suddenly burst into a rage. Except for the personal guards of more than a hundred people around him, there was no one to use.

Yu Shot Shi and An originally wanted to find Ashina Siyuan to lead the troops to block it, but they didn't find this Ashina puppy after looking for a long time. He had no choice but to get out of the watchtower car, take his horse, jump up, and run back with his guards.

But how could the prey that Wang Rong was aiming at let him leave easily, Wang Rong took two thousand cavalry and chased after Yu Sheshi and An. The chickens generally chased them and couldn't even go back to the camp, and in the end, Yu Sheshi and An were blocked by the big river.

Wang Rong surrounded him with soldiers and horses, Yu Shot Shi He'an's eyes were red, and he shouted viciously: "Yong thief, if there is a kind of duel, my grassland boy will never be afraid of you!" ”

Wang Rong was expressionless, took off the bow and arrow hanging on the hook, and the cavalry behind him raised their bows and arrows one after another.

"Buzz!" "Buzz!" "Buzz!" "Buzz!"

After four rounds of arrow rain, Yu shot Shi and An were hit by dozens of arrows and died straight by the river.
