Da Peng turned around and walked down the city wall, and ordered the military at the head of the city to strengthen the defense, pay attention to the movements of the merchant army, and report to him as soon as he found an abnormality. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

For the siege of the merchant army, Dapeng did not attach much importance to it. Even though they temporarily possessed some momentum under the leadership of Wen Zhong, they still could not compare with the people's army. Now do not go-for-tat with them, this is called showing the enemy weakness, and using the solidity of the city wall to rub their sharpness first.

Moreover, this was the first time that the Shang army attacked the city, and most of it was a feint attack with a tentative nature, mainly to find out the arrangement of troops on the city wall. Don't say that across the city wall, even if the merchant army is put into the city, Dapeng is sure to use street fighting to kill them.

This Wen Zhong is a little resourceful, that is, young and vigorous and a little happy in his heart! The strength of the siege and the battle is the number of people, and there are not several times the number of troops, so it is better to honestly hide in the big camp and pretend to be a grandson. There are about the same number of people, and they still want to attack the city? There are not many people to die!

The army was more than 300 zhang away from the city wall, Lin Xing ordered the catapult to start launching, and more than 300 catapults were divided into three waves to continuously attack the city wall of Yicheng.

At the same time, the archers were ordered to prepare to complete the suppression of the human soldiers on the city walls during the idle period of the catapult attack.

Hundreds of stones, each weighing 100 pounds, were thrown high by the catapult, carrying the wind and whistling towards the city.

Where have the soldiers of the human side seen this kind of formation, one of them was unexpectedly smashed by a stone. The light ones had broken their heads and the bleeding flowed, and the heavy ones died directly, and occasionally two unlucky children were smashed into meat sauce.

"Archers fire!" As the catapult filled with stones, tens of thousands of longbowmen drew their strongbows and looked up forty-five degrees and began to shoot at the walls.

The rain of arrows that covered the sky and the sun harvested the lives of many defenders in the blink of an eye, and the battlements of the city wall were densely packed with arrows like hedgehogs.

With such a ferocious attack, the suppressed human defenders hid under cover one by one, and no one dared to risk their lives. For fear of being hit by a stray arrow, he accidentally lost his life.

"Raise the flag and order the siege troops to attack, and the first one to climb the city will be rewarded with a thousand taels of officials to worship the commander!" Although everyone understands that most of the first to climb the city will not escape the fate of death, but how many people can resist the temptation of high-ranking officials? What if they are the lucky ones and save their lives?

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men. Coupled with the fact that Lin Xingyuan's column was the first, no soldier doubted that this always unreliable Master Taishi would not keep his promise.

The big shield cart covered the besieging soldiers to come to the city wall, and they set up the ladder cart with all hands and feet, and climbed quickly towards the city wall one by one.

"Order the siege vehicle to crash the city gate!" Lin Xing saw from a distance that there were already merchant troops on the top of the city. Quickly order the catapults and archers to stop shooting, this thing doesn't have eyes, it's an indiscriminate attack that doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. Now that the enemy's attention is on the city walls, it is a good time to attack the city gates.

Dozens of people pushed the siege vehicle to approach the city gate under the cover of shield soldiers, and began to accelerate dozens of feet away from the city gate.

"Bang!" Yicheng is the capital of the country, and the city gate has still put a lot of effort into it. It is made of fine pine, with a thickness of one foot and then wrapped in iron sheets, and inlaid with ninety-nine eighty-one door nails.

It is difficult to damage the city gates by the force of the siege vehicle impact alone. Even if the latch is broken, there are still a large number of soldiers defending inside, and it will be difficult to break through for a while and a half.

Without the threat of arrows and stones, the surviving soldiers on the city began to jump out and fight the besieging merchant army. For a time, the sound of killing on the entire city wall shook the sky, and from time to time, the corpses that were killed by the enemy fell, and the blood flowed like a river.

"Hiss!" Lin Xing really couldn't stand it, whether it was the People's Army or the Merchant Army, this was a piece of fresh life, and it was estimated that there would be tens of thousands of casualties at this moment, right? The blood that flowed out of the crack in the wall had already stained half of the city wall red.

"Why don't you Mingjin withdraw the troops?" Lin Xing quietly discussed with Youhou Xi, he really couldn't bear to see so many people dying.

"No!" You Houxi hurriedly stopped Lin Xing, the battle had just been going on for less than an hour. Now that the two armies are in a stalemate, now that Mingjin has withdrawn his troops, the People's Army will definitely take advantage of the situation to cover up. In that case, the losses will be more severe and morale will also be affected.

"Then these people are sent to death in vain!" Lin Xing now began to regret underestimating the cruelty of the siege war, he had known that if he had built more ladder cars in this way, would the battle situation change if there were more soldiers on the city wall?

"Why don't I go up too!" Zixia saw that her blood was boiling, and she took the initiative to ask Lin Xing for battle.

"What's more!" You Houxi almost didn't get scared out of her heart attack by Zixia's suggestion: "There are also monks on the human side, and once the fairy makes a move, it will definitely attract the opposing monk to intercept him." The battle between the monks, even the slightest repercussions, was not something that ordinary soldiers could bear. ”

The most important point is that there are only a few monks in the business business, including Lin Xing. As a country, there are probably no less than dozens of people to be worshipped. In the event of a battle between monks, will the other side easily destroy the besieging troops?

"Senior sister, will you scatter beans into soldiers? Let them fight, wouldn't the casualties be much less?" Lin Xing vaguely remembered that Jiang Ziya had used this trick, and finally turned defeat into victory and killed Wen Taishi, so could he, the fake Wen Taishi, not use the same trick to destroy the human side?

"Idiot, are you?" Zixia was sullen because she couldn't get out of the station, and when she heard Lin Xing ask Bai He, who was not angry, she gave him a look: "It's daylight, is it useful to borrow Yin soldiers?"

Mingyue smiled and explained to Lin Xing, only then did she understand the truth. It turns out that this sprinkling of beans into soldiers is not to sow beans and become soldiers, but to use grain as a carrier to recruit Yin soldiers to appear in the world.

It is said that the Yin Spirit's favorite food is tofu, but the tofu cannot carry the aura, so it can only retreat to the second most important thing, and the Yin soldiers will grab the soybeans after appearing, and when they swallow the soybeans, they also swallow the aura carried on the soybeans, so they accept the control of the caster's divine consciousness, and the role of the soybeans is limited to this.

"Unless you have the ability to change the day and turn day into night!" Zixia spread her hands: "I'm sorry, I don't have this ability!"

Hey! Once the success will be achieved, the bones will wither, and war will be cruel in any era. Now Lin Xing can only sigh like this, no matter how unbearable he is, he will not let the soldiers who died before die in vain because of his kindness. Only by taking Yicheng is the best consolation for them.

"Order the siege troops to pause, and the archers will shoot with catapults!" After all, it is the home field of the human side, and it is much more convenient for them to go up and down the city wall than the merchant army.

Another rain of arrows passed, and there were huge stones in between, and the walls were full of ghosts and wolves, and the soldiers of the city were falling in pieces like crops in a field.

"This is not the way!" Da Peng's eyes turned red as he looked at the city wall with heavy casualties: it was a shame for him to lose more as a defender than the besieging party.

"Order! Gather all the men and horses! This king will go out of the city and fight to the death with Na Wen Zhong!"

"Nioh Hugh should be reckless!" A strategist next to him grabbed Dapeng, who was thunderous: "The merchant army relies on some mechanical power, and Nioh can send some capable people to destroy those weapons, why compare brute force with it?"

"Great goodness!" Someone next to him echoed him, agreeing with the opinion put forward by one of the strategists just now: these so-called capable people and strange people should indeed make a contribution to enjoying the royal worship every day.

"Well!good!" Da Peng nodded and said, "It's best to destroy them together with those archers!"
