For example, the besieging side of the city comes up along the ladder, and the narrow ladder can come up at most one person at a time, and the position on the head of the city is so much, basically one-to-one, and it is three to one, at this time, the side defending the city only needs to take a spear and stab it vigorously, and it is the same if there is no spear and a bamboo pole, as long as the besieger falls down from the ladder, he can also fall to death if he is not stabbed. [No pop-up novel network]

At this time, is it different whether the people defending the city are the elite of a hundred battles?

At most, the elite physical strength is better, the killing is more neat, and the persistence is longer, and the others really don't have much advantage.

This is precisely why when many foreign invaders, officials in some places can stop a group of ordinary people to keep some ferocious and amazing invaders out of the city for months or even half a year.

If there is no advantage in defending the city, then whoever is full has nothing to do to build the city wall.

And the advantage of the city is that it can be defended by ordinary people. But if this kind of work is handed over to the elite, it will definitely be overkill.

The consequence of overuse is not only a waste of resources, but also the abandonment of one's own strengths, thus invisibly giving up one's own advantages.

Song Li was happy when he saw this, and at the same time felt that Song Qiuming was a pity. Because from the moment he decided to stick to the lock demon pass, he was actually doomed to failure.

The reason why Song Li has such confidence is because he has a trump card in his hand, and at the same time, he also knows himself and his opponent, so he can win steadily. But Song Qiuming only knew himself and did not know the other, he didn't understand that Song Li's tactical ideas came from another world, and he was still using the means to deal with ordinary rebels to deal with Song Li, and the result could be imagined.

In war, if there is a generation gap in weapons, the result may be that they are completely abused by the other side, and if there is also a generation gap in strategic thinking and tactical thinking, the same is true.

It's a pity that Song Qiuming doesn't know this, he is still in full swing preparing for battle. While reinforcing the lock demon pass, he was training the elite in his hands, so that the sergeants who were used to field battles learned how to defend the city.

Two days later, the forward battalion of Song Li's army had already arrived outside the Lock Demon Pass.

This forward battalion has a total of 5,000 people, and the general is Lu Qian, who once followed Song Li to the Rambis Kingdom.

The last time he quelled the rebellion in the royal capital of the Rambis Kingdom, Song Li was very satisfied with Lu Qian's performance, so he asked him to come to his side when he left the imperial capital this time, and promoted him when he raised his army and ordered him to be the vanguard.

The pioneer battalion does not look at the number of people, but it is an indispensable part of the army, and the responsibilities are also very important, what is a small matter to open a road and build a bridge in the water, and it is also a small matter for the large army to get rid of some small-scale enemies in advance, not only the battle is much bigger, but the credit is also easy to get, so the promotion is also fast, and the person who can do the striker is not only the henchman of the commander, but also the strength is not bad.

Lu Qian was able to become the general of the forward battalion, so he was naturally quite happy, and he worked quite hard.

At this time, he led the team to the outside of the lock demon pass, and according to the custom, he first shot a letter to persuade him to surrender.

Although Song Li also knew that Song Qiuming would definitely not surrender, since it was a common practice, of course it was necessary to abide by it. At least when the fight starts, you can still say that you don't want to be unpredictable.

After shooting the letter of persuasion, Lu Qian did not organize people to start the siege of the city, but ordered his subordinates to camp on the spot in order to accommodate the follow-up large troops.

Of course, Song Qiuming didn't surrender, and he didn't even open the letter, but he didn't take the initiative to attack Lu Qian and the others, so he watched them build a military camp more than ten miles outside the lock demon pass.

At noon that day, Song Li arrived with a large army, and at this time the number of troops increased again, reaching a huge number of 400,000.

As the saying goes, there are no boundaries for a person. What's more, this is 400,000 people, and the tents that are camped alone seem to stretch to the horizon.

In order to prevent Song Qiuming from stealing the camp in the middle of the night, Song Li certainly had a careful arrangement here.

That night, Song Li gathered the generals of the various departments together and said: "Don't say it, I think you must have seen it, the Demon Lock Pass will be the biggest battle we have encountered since we started our army, whether it can be defeated is enough to determine whether we can enter the imperial capital smoothly, and finally change the world, so I order......"

Crash.

All the generals stood up together and said solemnly: "Wait for the commander to send you." ”

"Good. Song Li took the map, pointed to a few points marked on it and said: "Tomorrow morning, each battalion will organize good people to carry out an intensive attack on these points, I don't ask if you can fight it, I only need a result, at least let the defenders in the city know that our belief in taking this place is extremely firm, even if it is by relying on people, we will bury this place for him, understand?"

"Understood. The generals agreed loudly.

"Good. Song Li nodded and said, "Then go down, there will be a military commander to assign you a task later." ”

The generals were all dumbfounded, they originally thought that Song Li must have taught them some trick to break the city when he called them this time, but they didn't expect to send them away without saying a word after coming. Is this going to be a siege?

No one knew what Song Li was thinking, and no one dared to ask, so everyone retreated in confusion.

Early the next morning, after a full meal of battle, the battalions began to organize men to attack the city.

From Shigu City to here, Song Li is not only exercising the army, but also preparing all kinds of siege equipment, what is available in this world, he is ready, what is not in this world, he is also ready, and now when he starts fighting, the scene is quite spectacular.

Although there are many people on Song Li's side, it is impossible to send everyone out, but on the fifty-mile-long city wall of the Lock Demon Pass, he has found several points of main attack to make key breakthroughs, and there are also some places to fight, but the main purpose is to attract the attention of the defenders.

Siege warfare is very fierce to say, but in fact it is quite boring, basically there is no strategy at all, to put it bluntly, one side attacks and the other defends, relying on the willpower of both sides who is stronger.

In the process, casualties were inevitable, and the corpses were quickly piled up into a hill, and the blood stained the ground a blood-red color.

The casualties on Song Li's side were not small, and Song Qiuming's side, who was defending the city, did not take much advantage, and the battle losses on both sides were almost five to one.

The morning passed, although the offensive did not make any progress, but the battle did not stop, the generals of the battalions under Song Li's command carried out his orders well, took turns to fight, all of them fought and rushed violently, the momentum was extremely fierce, which made the defenders in the city suddenly feel a lot of pressure.

"Dashuai, will you continue to fight like this in the afternoon?" asked Lu Qian, who did not participate in the siege of the city, but stayed by Song Li's side.

"Of course not. Song Li shook his head and said: "I'm just letting our soldiers see blood, be tempered, and complete the sharp change as soon as possible, if we keep fighting like this, not to mention whether we will kill everyone, I can't afford to waste time alone, Lu Qian......"

"Commander, give the order. ”

"Gather your men, get ready, and storm the gates with all your might when you see my banner.

"Huh?" Lu Qian was stunned. The gate of the lock demon gate is not paper-paste, let alone wood, but made of fine iron, not to mention how big, just the thickness is nearly three feet, and at the same time there are various defensive runes engraved on it, not to mention relying on the flesh and blood to impact, even if you take the battering ram to hit it, you may not be able to hit it.

"Ah, what, do you want to disobey?" Song Li's face sank.

"Don't dare. "The military order is like a mountain, how dare Lu Qian disobey the order. This is not another place, there is no room for him to bargain, what Song Li said is a military order, even if he is asked to send him to death, he has to go.

Song Li turned around and stretched out his hand and waved.

In an instant, more than a thousand warriors dressed in gold-scale chain armor with hideous iron faces gathered beside Song Li.

These are the men of the Blade Commando. Along the way, he followed Song Li to pull out the city and plunder the land, and made a lot of military exploits, Song Li would use them every time he fought hard, and at the same time, he would also take the lead.

Song Li was very aware of the importance of locking the demon pass, and of course he didn't want to delay here, so from the beginning, he didn't plan to rely on conventional methods to attack the city. The ones in the morning are just paralyzing each other.

At this time, it is the real killer feature.

"Come with me. Song Li waved his hand, and then rushed out of the military formation, leading this thousand blade assault group towards the city gate of the lock demon pass.

As soon as he saw that someone was about to storm the city gate, without Song Qiuming's order, the archers above the city head began to draw their bows and release arrows, and at the same time, there were some eight-bull crossbows, divine arm crossbows and other long-range attack weapons that shot at Song Li and the others.

With Song Li's strength, whether it is a bow and arrow or a crossbow arrow, it is not enough to cause him any damage, and the more than 1,000 blade assault regiments he trained with his own hands are not vegetarians, in terms of strength, they may not be as good as Song Li, but when they form a battle formation and integrate the strength of all the people, then it will be different.

A thousand men lined up in battle, like a heavy tank roaring forward, and crushed in the direction of the city gate. As for the arrows that flew in, before they could get close, someone from that side slashed them down with a sword.

From the military formation on Song Li's side to the city gate of the Demon Pass, the straight-line distance was only less than five miles, and Song Li and the others had already completed such a section of the road in less than half a minute.

"Give it to me. ”

Before coming to the city gate, Song Li let out a loud shout, and at the same time, with a wave of his hand, he had already smashed a ball of imperial fire on the city gate.

The city gate of the lock demon pass is very strong and thick, and there are a lot of defensive runes on it, it is difficult to destroy it by ordinary means, but under the burning of the imperial fire, the city gate that is more than three feet thick has only been burned through a big hole after only holding on for a second or two, and this hole has expanded in an instant.

"Boom. ”

The emperor's fire burned, like a fire dragon, and rushed into the city gate cave at once
