Guo Wenhui was dumbfounded, as if he didn't believe his eyes, and rubbed them vigorously. After seeing clearly that it was indeed a genuine trebuchet in the Liao army's array, he said in a trembling voice: "This ...... This one...... I really didn't expect it...... Unexpectedly...... But...... The city wall of Jizhou City is two feet thick. The Khitans are making a small fuss, and they want to use such trebuchets to attack the city, which is simply a fool's dream!"

Chen Ao didn't believe his words at all, and while letting people pass the order, the whole army was on alert, and beware of the Liao army attacking the city, while asking a few people around him to pay attention to protection. Just after the arrangement, the Liao army had already pulled up the trebuchet, and with an order, several huge stones drew a parabola and slammed into the city wall.

The defenders at the head of the city only felt a violent shaking, like a landslide and the ground cracked. After a burst of smoke and dust, I saw that several openings had been blasted open in the city wall, and the green bricks fell to the ground, revealing the rammed earth layer inside. Guo Wenhui miscalculated again, and he couldn't imagine that the trebuchet of the Liao army was not only accurate, but also so powerful.

He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to comfort himself. Chen Ao couldn't help but shout: "Shut up for me, you crow's mouth!"

Guo Wenhui opened his mouth in a daze, and didn't say anything in the end. He is just a civilian official, and it is already difficult to become this general. The first time I saw such a formation today, I was even more frightened.

Chen Ao watched nervously as the Liao army moved the boulder and continued to transport it to the trebuchet. Yesterday was an encounter, today is a siege, and another opportunity to learn. Fortunately, the people brought by his subordinates are all generals who can attack and defend well, and they have fully taken over the defense of Jizhou City at this moment.

Yao Zhou commanded people to strengthen protection on the one hand, and counterattacked on the other. On the other side, Chu Dazhuang and others took their own people to carry out a bed crossbow from the warehouse under the city tower. This was originally a sharp weapon to defend the city, but because of the slackness of the Jizhou defenders, it is still in the warehouse.

The bed crossbow had just been moved to the castle tower, and the second round of stone throwing had arrived. There was another shaking of the mountains, and the walls of the city collapsed again. However, the city wall of Jizhou is indeed thick, although the bluestone city bricks on the surface have been blasted open, but the thick layer of rammed earth inside is comparable to the existence of reinforced concrete. Chen Ao wasn't worried that these trebuchets would directly blast the city wall open, but the green bricks had collapsed a lot, piling up in the corners. If the Liao army rushed to the bottom of the city, it was easy to climb from the pile of bricks to the top of the city.

Chu Dazhuang has already begun to direct the bed crossbow to be fired. The soldier turned his gear, tightened the string, and with a "buzz", several huge iron arrows flew past the trebuchets of the Liao army.

The Liao army was preparing to start the third round of stone throwing, and the huge arrow came and hit the trebuchet. The huge wooden machinery instantly cracked apart and scattered into a pile. The Liao army, which had no time to dodge, was smashed down.

The Liao army had no trebuchets, and could no longer bombard the city walls. Guo Wenhui finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his sweat, and said with a smile: "General Chen, don't worry, the trebuchet of the Liao army is over, and they will have no way!"

Chen Ao's heart jumped, and he secretly wanted to be bad. As long as this old guy opens his mouth, it will be fine!

Sure enough, as soon as Guo Wenhui's words fell, he saw several generals in the Liao army slowly coming to the front of the battle on horseback, as if they were inspecting the siege situation. Yao Zhou kept staring at the banner of the Liao Army, and couldn't help but gasp, and said, "It's Xiao Tzu Rin!"

"Xiao Tzu Rin?!" The others couldn't help but exclaim.

Chen Ao said blankly: "Who is Xiao Tzu Rin? Why do you all look like you've seen a ghost?"

Zhao Ling whispered: "Since the death of Brother Yelu Xiu, the most outstanding general of the Liao army is this King Xiao Tart!"

Chen Ao nodded silently, secretly surprised in his heart, he, a little-known boy, actually faced the most powerful person in the Liao Kingdom, I am obedient! Looking at the formation of the Liao army, I am afraid that there must be forty or fifty thousand people. This city...... Can you keep it......

Chen Ao had a trace of doubt in his heart, and began to compare the situation of the enemy and us. The Liao army fought several battles in a row, and its momentum was flourishing. Moreover, they occupied so much land and achieved brilliant results, which made the confidence of the Liao army swell to the extreme. And the Song army, in addition to the 20,000 people he brought with him, had a little combat effectiveness, and the tens of thousands of people in the Jizhou garrison were purely decorations. Maybe those soldiers are very brave, but it is really embarrassing to have such a group of mediocre generals.

Chen Ao's heart was clouded, and he only heard the sound of the horn in the Liao army. The formation of the front army has changed, and it is actually about to charge over. Chen Ao was taken aback, and said secretly, is this going to be attacked?

Guo Wenhui was even more shocked, but he didn't forget to comfort himself: "The Liao army ...... The Khitans are coming...... It doesn't matter...... It doesn't matter...... These people rushed over...... A burst of arrows was shot back......"

Chen Ao didn't dare to compliment him with such an idea. Sure enough, the Liao soldiers whipped their horsewhips and rushed towards the city. In addition to the scimitars hanging from their waists, these soldiers also had rope hooks. As long as you can rush to the bottom of the city, climb up along the stacked bricks, and hook the city wall with a hook, you can open up a path for the rear army. As long as the rear army keeps up, this city will be taken down!

Chen Ao had already thought of the plot that might happen in the future. This is a decent siege method, and there are no special tricks. The next thing is to keep taking people's lives to fill in the city. Whoever can hold on to the offensive and defensive sides will be able to achieve the final victory.

A thousand-strong squad of the Liao army scattered and rushed over, rushing to almost two hundred paces. Yao Zhou shouted: "Archer!

The archers, who had already stood next to the battlements and were ready, drew the bowstring into a full moon and aimed at the Liao army under the city. At this moment, the Liao army also reached out and took off the bow and arrow pinned to the saddle, bent the bow and drew the arrow, and shot towards the city. The Khitans are skilled in horsemanship, and all of them are proficient in riding and archery, and they can quickly aim and shoot even on fast horses.

The two sides shot each other in one round, and the Song army had a condescending advantage. The arrows of the Liao army only made the Song soldiers at the head of the city dodge for a while, and injured a few people. Nearly 100 people in the Liao army fell to the ground with arrows. Perhaps they were not killed by arrows, but in the midst of a thousand horsemen galloping wildly, they would be trampled to death by the hooves of the horses behind them when they fell to the ground.

Chen Ao looked at this bloody scene and almost wanted to gause. But instead of turning his head, he forced his eyes to be fixed on the battlefield. Now that he is a commander in command of operations, how can he not even dare to watch such a bloody scene?

The Liao army's thousand-man team was followed by a thousand-man team, constantly shooting arrows at the head of the city to cover the front army. Sure enough, arrows continued to come up from the city, seriously affecting the movement of the defenders. Dodging a rain of arrows, when Chen Ao looked down again, he saw that the cavalry in front of him had already rushed to the city. Some jumped off their horses and began to climb up the pile.

Chen Ao couldn't help but shout: "Stop them!"

The defenders, under the command of their respective leaders, picked up the stones and threw them downward. The Liao troops who rushed to the city had no cover at all, and they did not have the speed advantage when they charged, and they completely became live targets. Several boulders fell down, and many people's heads were bleeding and their brains were bursting. Their bodies fell to the ground, no one cared, and soon became a stepping stone for those who came after them.

The energy of the defenders was attracted by the people under the city, and the Liao army behind quickly rushed to the front. Xiao Tzu Rin continued to give orders, and the vanguard of the Liao army achieved good results, and the follow-up all-out charge also began!
