Chapter 123: Attrition!

With a catapult and a ladder to the city, Amir is now full of confidence.

With the remaining 1,800 soldiers, pushing siege engines and carrying ladders, they came to the city of Mawu again.

As is customary, the two sides first exchanged harsh words, and then the siege began the next day.

First of all, there were catapults on the side of the poison, and ten huge catapults were neatly placed four hundred steps outside the city of Mawu County.

Nearly 60 pounds of stones were placed in the stone bags in the rear by the poisoned soldiers, and each of the ten catapults cooperated with 20 operators, a total of 200 people operated the ten huge catapults in the rear.

In front of the catapult, 1,200 poisoned soldiers were divided into four groups, each group of 300 people was a wave, carrying ten ladders to the city and ready to charge at any time!

Everything was ready, and seeing that the sun in the sky had risen, Emir did not delay any longer, and even gave the order to start attacking!

And on the side of Mawu County, as soon as Jia Ping saw the posture of the poisonous army, he knew that there was a fierce battle today, and with the catapult, I am afraid that today's side of the escort army would not be able to attack the enemy without injury by virtue of the advantage of defending the city as yesterday.

But the matter has come to this, I can only defend it head-on, and the soldiers who guarded the first wave yesterday are rotated into the second team today and begin to recuperate.

Yesterday as the second team today as the first team.

After all, the first team had already dealt with a wave of attacks yesterday, and they needed to be repaired.

The attack of the body poison army soon began, and after the body poison army began to attack, the guards on the city wall could only hear a few whirring sounds, and nearly ten stone balls were whirring towards the city wall of Mawu County.

It's just that the first round may not have been adjusted, and only one out of ten ten goals fell on the city wall, but there was no one there, but there were no casualties.

The other nine stone balls either missed the city wall or shot over their heads and fell directly into the city.

But it was useless to fall into the city, and everyone in the city near the city wall had been emptied by the guards, and naturally there were no casualties to the guards.

But Jia Ping and all the soldiers of the Guardian knew that this was just the beginning.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the second round of stone-throwing to come soon.

This time, I should have learned the experience of the first time, and the accuracy of throwing stones was much higher, and nearly half of the falling rocks fell on the city wall of Mawu County.

This time, everyone was prepared, but they avoided it, but at this moment, the body poison army infantry army also launched an attack at this moment!

"Kill! Kill all these wildlings! ”

"Kill!"

Groups of poisonous soldiers carrying the ladder to the city were densely packed like ants, swarming with the whistling sound of catapults.

Kaka!

The ladder with a wooden hook on top of the frame was stuck at the top of the city.

Some of the guards tried to cut down the ladders, but the rocks that whistled and fell overhead from time to time made the action extremely dangerous.

Since the third wave of falling rocks, there have been casualties among the soldiers of the escort army, and the sixty or seventy pounds of boulders that fell from the sky slammed into people, and the kind of attack force even if the soldiers of the escort army were already fully armored could not bear it.

As long as they touch each other, it will be a death or injury.

However, in order to defend the county town of Mawu, even the soldiers of the dangerous escort army can only bite the bullet!

When the poisonous soldiers didn't come up, they desperately threw down the rolling wood thunder stones, poured gold juice, and destroyed the ladder to the city.

As soon as the poisonous soldiers rushed up, the guards could only use knives to fight with others.

Fortunately, in terms of weapons and equipment, the guards still have an advantage, and in the face of the poisonous soldiers with bronze weapons in their hands, the guards can often cut off the opposite weapon with one sword, and if they are lucky, they will even give half of the weapons with them.

The most brutal battle on the battlefield began, and the entire city was reduced to a flesh mill, and soldiers on both sides lost their lives at every turn.

Although the weapons on the side of the escort are good, the number is always weak.

It's okay to go one-on-one, and the soldiers on the side of the guard can basically win easily, but if it's two against one, three against one, and four against one......

Under the four hands of two fists, the casualties of the guards are also rising.

The catapult projected for a whole hour, and the soldiers of the escort army also stood guard against the falling rocks of the catapult for a whole hour, and never let the poisonous soldiers gain a firm foothold in the city, so they withstood the opponent's siege with difficulty.

As soon as the catapult stopped, the guards who had just had some scruples no longer had any scruples, and all kinds of city defense equipment could be used.

It's not so easy for this city to come up again, and the rolling wood, thunder stones, and gold juice that come up frequently are enough to make the nearly thousand body poison soldiers below not come up half a step!

And in the rear of the poisonous army, at this moment, Amir, who is a poisonous army, is furious!

"Why didn't the trebuchet continue to attack! Keep attacking! It's not close! The warriors of the kingdom are almost ready to storm the city! ”

Just now seeing that his soldiers were about to rush up, the catapult suddenly stopped firing, and all the advantages that he had managed to fight at once were gone, which made Emir angry enough.

Adjutant General Maha Takar explained with a bitter face: "Lord Amir, we have no stones, and the catapult has already thrown all the stones found from the surrounding area. ”

"What?! There are no more stones! How is it possible, isn't this everywhere? Besides, why didn't you prepare enough stones before, and now that you are on the battlefield, you actually told me that there are no stones, are you kidding me! ”

Amir grabbed Maha Thakar by the collar and squirted at him.

Maha Thakar didn't dare to speak with a bitter face, he couldn't say that you were in too much of a hurry, and you didn't have time to collect too many stones?

I can only endure it by myself.

After spraying for a while, Amir's anger finally subsided, and he let go of Maha Takar's neck with a cold snort, and said coldly: "Let people collect enough stones immediately, next time!" The next time this happens, take your head back and explain it to the eldest prince! Hear no! ”

"Yes! Be! Be! Subordinates understood! ”

Maha Takar hurriedly nodded yes and went down to prepare the stones.

And the warring parties also took advantage of this gap to hurry up and recuperate.

At the head of Mawu City, Jia Ping was hurriedly counting the number of casualties.

Soon the specific number of casualties was counted, and in the attack just now, more than 60 of the 120 people in the first team died in the city.

Most of them were killed by falling rocks, and some were besieged by the enemies who rushed up.

And it is estimated that the number of poison soldiers who died at their hands just now was definitely no less than five hundred, and the battle loss ratio of close to ten to one was already very good.

But this made Jia Ping unhappy.

There are more than 200 people in the entire Mawu county, this time it is the other party's lack of preparation, so it is the past, and then the other party will definitely be ready to come again, and the offensive will be more fierce at that time.

But they had reduced their numbers to just over 180 men, of whom 50 or 60 were wounded.

The situation in Mawu County is now extremely serious.

This city is hard to defend!
