Chapter Twenty-Three: The Siege of the City

"Kill!"

Standing on the vast grassland in the north, a huge war is being set off, and at this moment that meadow is like a meat grinder, countless soldiers are pouring in here, but not a single person has ever been seen out of here, all of them are submerged, buried here silently, and turned into a pile of blood and mud.

Their death is not worthless, at least the opportunity they have created for the people behind them, the city wall above the grassland, constantly has cloud ladders rising and falling, from a distance it looks like one male dragon after another, about to erect, climbing towards that city wall, but every time they attack, those people above tried their best to push those cloud ladders down again.

Whenever they fell to the ground, those ladders would crush a large number of people, but in the face of the boundless army, they were quickly overwhelmed again.

Finally, I don't know where on the city wall there is a Hun finally boarded, as if it was a fish leaping dragon scales, after coming up, he directly killed the soldiers on the city wall, so that those behind did not stop at the first time, and the rest of the Huns approached.

There are constantly Huns pouring up the city wall and those soldiers on the city wall to fight, the battlefield has been introduced from the outside into the city, the soldiers of the Xuanwu army are stationed here, is to take advantage of the terrain here, to hold this place, but in this situation, these people have ignored the ferocity of these Huns, for them, this war is to survive, is to leave hope for their families behind them, not for themselves.

"Ahh

One of the defenders was cut in the back, and the Huns kicked him in the leg and cut off his head, and the headless body fell to the ground, and the blood was sprinkled on the attackers, but even then it did not stop them, and looking down from above, they were as formidable as demons crawling out of the abyss.

"Dashuai! The situation at the East City Gate is not optimistic, and some of the Huns have already climbed up, whether they want to release their weapons once. ”

Mr. Qin is in charge of the northwest two gates, and the marshal is in charge of the southeast two gates, and the two of them are like the brains of a giant, constantly filming instructions and tasks, but the army they face is also bad news one after another.

"Use fire oil!"

Bai Qi said, this is also what they have prepared for several days, after pouring all these things down, as long as those are ignited, then a fire dragon will be formed below, surrounding the city wall, so that those Huns can not attack for the time being, and the warriors can also slow down, in the case of last resort, they will not use their secret weapons, and in this case in front of them use some less, in the end no one knows what those Huns will go crazy.

But in this situation, the East City Gate is already very not optimistic, in case they break through the East City Gate, those secret weapons will become other people's trophies, and it will be even more unfavorable for him at that time, so he can only take advantage of this time has not been completely attacked, and quickly use secret weapons to block the advance of those Huns.

"Yes. ”

The man ran quickly to the wall and spoke loudly to the herald above.

"Set the oil on fire!"

I saw that one after another huge cylindrical containers on the city wall were pushed directly under the city wall, killing many Hun soldiers.

Suddenly the liquid spilled on the ground and poured on their bodies, and the herald took out a fire fold and struck it, only to see a fire dragon spread rapidly underneath it.

The Huns below, surrounded by the raging fire, roared miserably in the flames, turning into blackened corpses one after another.

"Ahh

Having already stormed the city walls, the vanities were furious at the sight of their compatriots being burned in this way, and they knew that in this situation, they would sooner or later be besieged and strangled by these soldiers without the follow-up soldiers.

Just like the fight of the trapped beasts, these people are completely a desperate way to fight this.

"Damn it!"

The Hun officers below saw the fire in the sky, and immediately pulled down a military flag, this action represents a temporary retreat, and the fire in front of him cannot attack again, which means that the battle of the East City Gate has been temporarily fallen, and if you want to take it again, you can only start again, and you need to fill it with human lives.

Soon after the withdrawal of the East City Gate, the remaining three directions were also withdrawing troops, because they also saw that the rollers on it were thought to be a kind of building at first, but they didn't expect those vicious Qin people to put fire oil inside, if they attacked again and poured down the fire oil on the city wall again, then their soldiers would lose very seriously.

"These Huns finally retreated. ”

I don't know what kind of magic this sentence has, after someone said this, those people on the city wall collapsed directly to the ground from exhaustion, regardless of the mutilated corpses on the city wall, they fell directly to the ground, this hard battle, they have basically used all their strength to resist.

If it weren't for this last resort, I'm afraid that their eastern city gate would have been breached, and then those Huns would be using this as a breakthrough point, then I'm afraid that this battle would really be very dangerous, and even give up the fertile plain behind.

"Old Qin, what's the situation on both sides of yours. ”

Bai Qi looked at the battle situation on their side, and after cleaning, he counted the number of people, and found that many people were injured, and when he saw the mountains of corpses under the city, those fire oil were still burning there, and those people had completely turned into charred corpses, like a Senluo hell.

"The situation on my side is not optimistic, the Huns' attack this time exceeded my estimates, and I haven't transferred an army yet, and I didn't expect those Huns to fight so fiercely. ”

After all, in the previous battles, the soldiers and horses were not moved, and the food and grass came first, but they had just received the news, and within a day, they had already launched an attack, as the main battlefield, their soldiers were all elite, but there were also a lot of wounds.

"There were many casualties among my men, especially the inhabitants of those towns, not only did they not help, but because the Huns almost climbed the city wall, they were in a big mess and did not help. ”

The two discussed the next battle plan in this way, after all, in this situation, it was even more fierce than they had estimated at the beginning, this kind of battle was completely regardless of casualties, taking the lives of those people to fill this, facing the number of those Hun soldiers, their Xuanwu army was far from enough, and it was easy to be completely annihilated if they fought head-on.

They now estimate what those Huns may do next, there is no doubt that they are a very difficult bone to gnaw here, these Huns want to take this city in a short period of time is simply not possible, and now as a better breakthrough, then the Cold Ice Gate will be a very good place.

Once the Cold Ice Gate is occupied, it can also be said to be a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus some reserve food in the Cold Ice Gate, it can also be called for them to hold on here for a while.

"I only hope that the soldiers we sent over can help them resist, otherwise this plan may not change badly. ”

Mr. Qin looked at the piece of paper in his hand, some arrows were drawn on it, this is what the scouts they sent found out during this period of time, the Huns temporarily divided into two routes, the army gathered here, but the vanguard team was at the Cold Ice Gate, if they felt that they could not take the city in a short time, I am afraid that they would gather troops to break through the garrison of the Cold Ice Gate in one fell swoop.
