The large array of the Hanoi army was as tough as a pecan, and no matter how much the Xiliang elite cavalry beat it, it couldn't smash out the gap. In addition, more than 100 hand crossbows with large yellow crossbows made their opponents fearful, like a fox wolf with sharp teeth and claws, unable to speak to a hedgehog curled up in a ball.

As time passed, the siege equipment assembled by the Hanoi army on the spot was dragged forward by dozens of horses, and the situation on both sides of the battle immediately changed.

The six-zhang tower-shaped arrow cart, almost level with the wall of the Tiger Prison, was full of archers who were good at shooting, and they hid behind the shield, and when they felt that the wind was in the right direction, they used the method of projectile to send the arrows into the sky, crossed the imperfect parabola, and landed on the Tiger Prison beyond the range.

At first, the sparse arrows hit the wall, but as the archers continued to make corrections and take advantage of the tailwind, they soon planted dense feathered arrows on the wall.

Niu Fu, the general guarding the pass, looked pale, just nodded lightly to the guards beside him, and this person immediately turned around and went down to give orders.

Immediately afterwards, the Qiang wizards in the Xiliang army were ordered, and they used the method of blood sacrifice to stimulate the witchcraft that was ambushed inside and outside the tiger prison pass, and the twelve heavenly ghosts and gods woke up from the lair, and scattered the blood-colored light that mortals could not see, and smeared a thin layer of red light on the weapons and armor of the soldiers of the Xiliang army.

At the same time, twelve maidens with disheveled heads, armed with thin-bladed horn knives, danced around a grassy python, and from time to time stepped forward to slash them.

The thatched python was soon cut to the ground by the girls dancing the war dance, and every time a wound appeared on its body, a large cloud of thick white smoke came out, gathering at the head of the tiger prison wall, and the color gradually turned gray and black!

The wind is blowing!

The wind blew out from inside the Tiger Prison Wall, and the arrows thrown by the archers of the Hanoi Army from a long distance were suddenly blown away by this strange wind. The situation reversed in a blink of an eye, and the sudden change in the direction of the wind began to favor the bow and arrow of the Xiliang army.

The situation is changing so fast, ordinary people still think that the power of nature, but Ye Zhiqiu, who is familiar with Taoism, witchcraft, and prohibition, can see through the advantages of the Xiliang Army at a glance, where does it come from.

"The witchcraft of changing the weather in some areas! Dong Zhongshu, a Confucian Taoist, took the stage to pray for rain and quell the drought. Could it be that this person who turned from Taoism to Confucianism has also dabbled in witchcraft?"

If you want to decide the victory or defeat of the siege battle with bows and arrows, the Hanoi army made a good demonstration, and on the other hand, it is impossible for the Xiliang army to use scattered arrows to defeat the large array of the Hanoi army.

When the trebuchet was in place, it began to use its long arm to throw the heavy rock into the sky, glide through the near-perfect parabola, and slammed into the wall of the tiger prison with a deafening roar.

In fact, with the strength and hardness of this majestic pass in the world, it is extremely difficult for an ordinary medium-sized trebuchet to break through without a frontal bombardment of several thousand rounds.

It's a pity that passive beating has never been the choice of the Xiliang Army, they are better at taking the initiative, perhaps related to the concept of army building in this border state: offense is the best defense!

More than 1,000 Xiliang elite horsemen used for the trial were assembled according to the instructions of the military flag on the wall. Immediately afterward, just as the Hanoi army was on alert for them to forcibly break into the formation, the closed door opened again, this time not in the middle, but with the small doors on the left and right.

Every breath, there were fifty heavily armed Xiliang soldiers, quickly rushing out of the Tiger Prison, covered in black armor and unique costumes, and the mounts under the crotch were mostly black horses, looking down from the sky, as if seeing a roaring black tide, frantically devouring the target.

The seemingly strong Hanoi army array, in the face of this arrogant and monstrous wave, still couldn't help but tremble. Even if the dual spear shield array is as solid as a rock, trying to stop the avalanche-like waves seems to be an impossible task.

"Spear formation, up!"

With a roar, the seemingly useless sword and shield soldiers and fighting soldiers squatted on the ground one after another, grabbed the three-zhang long heavy spear with both hands, and the end was against the ground, two or three people cooperated, carrying it with their shoulders and waists, and the tip of the three-foot-long spear went up obliquely, revealing its bloodthirsty fangs at the Xiliang Jingqi.

At the rear of the large array, the concentrated use of the big yellow crossbow and the condescending archers, three rounds of rapid fire, tried to cut off the frenzy set off by the Xiliang Jing cavalry, and temporarily created a separation belt.

It's a pity that the speed of the Xiliang army's charge is too fast, they are like righteous soldiers who calmly go to death on the execution ground, desperately riding their horses and rushing into the gun and shield array, using their mounts and their own bodies to open the passage of victory for their partners behind.

It is said that a half-ton war horse, once the speed is raised, its potential energy is so great that it is a boulder thrown by a heavy trebuchet, and it is as solid as a rock according to the will of man, and the facts must be respected on the battlefield.

"Whoa...... Whew"

The double spear and shield array was collapsed and collapsed by the Xiliang elite cavalry in an instant, and the large array of the Hanoi army seemed to have been gnawed by a hungry wolf in a blink of an eye, and it was full of bloody wounds.

However, the price paid was too heavy, and the two sides in the first round of contact, the main attacking Xiliang Jingcai was certainly killed by dense spears piercing through the body, regardless of their incomparably powerful potential energy, it also completely destroyed the formation of the Hanoi army.

The war horses that were gliding at high speed on the ground could not be stopped by ordinary means at all, and after killing seven or eight people in succession, they used their momentum to slow down and pause, and stopped in front of the thicker spear formation.

Wang Kuang silently ignored the casualties of his soldiers, after all, the two wings and the rear of the Hanoi army were still quite intact, not to mention the broken army that was receiving nearby, the tiger of Jiangdong who was determined to take revenge, and the desire for war was so strong that even he, a human spirit who had been up and down in the sea for many years, was terrified.

"Now the morale of the Xiliang Army is high, and their sharpness was broken in the first battle, and it will be much easier to do it in the future! Fighting a war of attrition, the Xiliang Army is a weak point, but it is the Kwantung heroes who can continuously recruit soldiers, grain and grass, and the longer the time is mopped, the more advantageous it is!"

Thinking of this, Wang Kuang couldn't help laughing at himself: "A remnant party of a foreign relative like me, who has been ostracized, can only and only serve as a rock to dull the soldiers of the Xiliang Army can win the approval of the heroes of the Kwantung region and completely change the camp!

At the same time, after crushing the double spear shield array, Xiliang Jing rode desperately towards the spear array, this time they did not do so, but suffered enough.

The thickness of a goose egg, the heavy spear three zhang long, arranged into a phalanx half a mile long, the dense steel spear forest was quietly erected, even the heavily armed Xiliang Jing cavalry, in front of this array, there was only a share of hatred and defeat.

Ye Zhiqiu saw that the Xiliang soldiers were hanging on their spears with their horses, not just riding alone, but several in a row, just like the skewers he usually likes to eat.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little bored and nauseated, but his current mentality was much stronger than at the beginning, and when he thought about it, he easily calmed down his restless mood.

"I really didn't expect that Wang Kuang is not only an official with high local governance skills, but also a general with old and spicy methods, and he did not encounter the unreasonable Fei General Lu Bu, and the county-level soldiers under his personal command could actually make the Xiliang Army suffer a huge dark loss! These characters who can leave a name in history are really not easy people!"

At the critical juncture, Xiliang Jingqi also seemed to be aware of the power of the spear array, and Niu Fu, the main general on the wall of the Tiger Prison, widened his bull's eyes, regardless of his own prestige, and hurriedly gave orders to the guards on the left and right.

After all, the side that was frustrated or even hit hard was his own brother who knew each other well, and he had to admit that Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi who dared to raise troops and knock on the pass, was indeed qualified to let the Xiliang army face it squarely.

When the signal of Mingjin's withdrawal came out, the Xiliang Jingcai, who was still in a fierce battle, although there was a lot of dissatisfaction, they still obediently retreated, leaving behind a bloody corpse, and ended the contact with the Hanoi army with the wounded soldiers, and returned to the Tiger Prison Pass along the same road.

Wang Kuang didn't care about the casualties of his soldiers, and under his command, more than a dozen medium-sized trebuchets roared again.

The screeching rocks were like meteors falling to the ground, sending up a wave of smoke and dust. The majestic Tiger Prison wall couldn't help but tremble, but it was a pity that the wall was ten zhang thick and the boulders were piled up, and not a few rocks the size of the hug could break through!

Niu Fu, the main general guarding the pass, snorted and said bluntly: "When will our trebuchet be in place? What? We have to wait until tomorrow to die!"

General Fei, who was "recuperating" from his wounds in the camp of Bingzhou, smiled disapprerovingly when he heard the roar coming from the wall: "The invincible Xiliang Army in the world has also suffered! This is really excellent!"
