A violent explosion came, and then Ding Jiang felt that his entire body was pushed backwards by a force, and he slammed into the battlements on the side before stopping. He immediately looked up, only to see that the ballista, which had just shown its might, had been hit by a ball of fire, and half of the crossbow body had been ignited, and it was blazing with flames. Several sergeants in charge of the ballista around were also affected by Fang Cai's fireballs, and were injured to varying degrees, and two of them were covered in flames and were rolling frantically on the ground.

Before he had time to think about it, Ding Jiang stepped forward, grabbed the sergeant who was rolling on the ground covered in fire, regardless of the hot armor that had been burned, and used all his strength to tear the armor on his body, throw it aside, and concoct it in the same way to save the two sergeants from the ignited armor. Although he suffered some burns, he did not have to worry about his life.

After saving people, Ding Jiang didn't have time to take a look at the ballista. At this moment, the ballista was completely engulfed in flames, the flames were burning, and several sergeants on the side were struggling to put it out, but it seemed that even if the fire was extinguished, the ballista could no longer be used.

"What a damn!" Seeing this, Ding Jiang scolded angrily, and no longer paid attention to the ballista, and walked straight to the city wall on the side.

In the castle, the production of simple trebuchets is proceeding rapidly, and the prototype of the equipment has already been developed.

In front of the city gate, three of the enemy's towers were destroyed by ballistas, and the remaining one was still advancing in the direction of the city wall.

At the side of the upcoming city wall of the Push City Tower, a team of elite soldiers had already gathered, just waiting for the other party to attack. The other enemy troops under the city were still in the phalanx, approaching the direction of the city wall, and the ladder hand in the phalanx looked a little dazzling.

There is no need for Ding Jiang to command, the defending sergeant knows what to do, there are countless bows and crossbows and arrows on the city wall, except for the sergeant who is responsible for defending the city tower and the city chariot, the remaining sergeant is holding a longbow and shooting arrows downward, although the enemy is equipped with a large shield in front, but it can not withstand the crazy pouring of many arrow rains, from time to time there are sergeants who fall to the ground with arrows and die unexpectedly.

However, the enemy phalanx is obviously deliberately protecting the ladder hand, and the number of enemy troops holding high shields near the ladder is obvious, and shooting arrows at the head of the city rarely really hurts the ladder.

Ding Jiang is not worried about this, the battle has reached this point, he already knows the combat effectiveness of the enemy army well, the two thousand soldiers who have newly entered the city wall to change their defense are waiting for work, and three of the four push towers have been destroyed, and now they want to easily climb the city wall, it is also impossible.

What Ding Jiang now needs to consider is that the ballista at the head of the city has been destroyed, and if the new enemy army attacks again, how to resist it.

On the city wall, it has been suffering from the fireball attack of the enemy trebuchet, every time the fireball hits the city wall, you can feel the city wall has a slight trembling, and there are more and more fine cracks on the wall, and the enemy's trebuchet must be solved as soon as possible.

He glanced back at the city, the order that had just been arranged was in progress, but it could not be formed in a short time, and in the face of the attack of the enemy army behind, there was only one way to resist for the time being.

The battle on the city wall was in full swing, and Ye Guan in the city gradually calmed down his emotions.

He didn't need to listen to any returns, he only needed to listen to the shouts of killing coming from the city, and he could know that even if the enemy army had been attacking, it was still far from a full-scale attack by the enemy army. These two attacks were only deliberate temptations by the enemy, and there were not many troops, and the attacks were not violent.

Compared with the tens of thousands of enemy troops, the tentative attack of a few thousand sergeants was insignificant.

This is just the first night, Ye Guan intends to continue the plan, to delay Huang Yongning to the greatest extent, so that he has time to arrange everything, although the situation is crisis, but he must not be anxious.

The only variable may be the mysterious black-robed man, but Ye Guan can't control this matter, so he can only let it develop. If the other party wants to come to him, he can do so at any time.

At the city wall, as the enemy phalanx continued to advance, the battle once again entered the white heat, and the enemy's only push tower advanced to the city wall, and the enemy immediately met the defenders in close combat. As Ding Jiang expected, among the enemy troops attacking this time, there were also several people with advanced cultivation, but this time they were on guard and would not be caught off guard.

The ladder in the enemy phalanx also came up with a dense number of arrows, and immediately several enemy sergeants climbed up and quickly came towards the city wall. However, the enemy troops on the ladder had no protection, and they were like moving targets in mid-air, and most of the enemy troops who climbed the ladder did not have a chance to climb the city wall, and even if a small number of those who climbed the city wall, they were quickly killed by the defenders.

The enemy's second attack was quickly extinguished, and without powerful siege equipment, ordinary sergeants, even if they were well equipped, could not do anything about the towering walls of Zhu'an Castle.

Despite this, the enemy did not withdraw his troops, and after the second phalanx touched the city wall, the third phalanx immediately opened out again, and the speed was obviously much faster than before, and quickly assembled in the direction of the city wall.

On the city wall, just after the battle was over, the last tower was destroyed, the ladder that was erected was cut off, and before he could catch his breath, the enemy attack came again.

General Ding Jiang gasped for breath and looked at the enemy phalanx that was rapidly advancing not far away, his eyes cold.

In this contact, the 2,000 defenders who had newly changed their defenses did not suffer much loss and could continue to fight, and Ding Jiang did not give an order to change their defenses, and the 2,000 defenders continued to defend the city wall.

In the city, the simple trebuchet finally has a prototype, and the machine is being installed, because of the simple structure, it does not take much effort to build, and it can be completed in a few moments.

The new enemy phalanx, obviously the same configuration as the previous team, four city pushing towers, city trucks and a large number of ladders, surrounded by a group of sergeants, is rapidly advancing in the direction of the city wall.

Without the strategy of the ballista, the trebuchet has not yet been arranged, and this time, I am afraid that there will be a bloody battle.

Ding Jiang stood up and looked at his own sergeants who were preparing to fight, each sergeant was engrossed, waiting for the enemy to enter the firing range, with the longbow and crossbow in hand, and none of them showed cowardice or fatigue. Seeing this, Ding Jiang was very pleased, the division of a hundred battles, there is no need to say anything, they have built an absolutely powerful defense line in their hearts, and it is not so easy to destroy.

As for the enemy troops under the city that have not been completely killed, a small number of defenders are taking care of them with bows and crossbows, and these enemy troops are holding high their big shields and rushing to the wall, shrinking in the corners of the wall, desperately resisting the arrows that may come at any angle, without siege equipment, they cannot climb the wall, they cannot retreat without the order to retreat, they can only resist there, life and death.

In the blink of an eye, the enemy phalanx entered range, and the arrow feathers poured down from the city's head, quickly harvesting life.

On the battlefield, the pungent smell of the smoke of war and the smell of blood in the sky all stimulated everyone's nerves and made the sergeants on both sides on the battlefield highly nervous.

Without any words, attacking and defending, unfolding quickly.

Above the head of the city, the defending Dongwangfu sergeants fought bravely to kill the enemy, killing and wounding the enemy to the greatest extent, and the vicinity of the advancing Tuicheng Tower became the target of the public, the enemy sergeants fell to the ground one after another, and the blood instantly rendered the earth, and the already red and blackened ground was soaked again.

The screams came and went, lingering in everyone's ears for a long time.

There were casualties along the way, but it did not stop the enemy's advance, except for the sergeant with a large shield in front of the tower, most of the remaining enemy troops had already entered the tower, and used the tower as a moving fortress, and fired back with arrows behind it.

Above the city, Ding Jiang had already prepared, and the middle-level generals of the Dongwang Mansion holding swords on the city wall waited without squinting for the enemy to push the city tower to the city.

Every time the phalanx pushed forward, it cost with their lives, but the enemy phalanx continued to advance without the slightest stagnation.

Finally, several towers reached the head of the city, and with a few sounds, the wooden fence on the towers was opened, and the enemy troops immediately swarmed up.

At the same time, Ding Jiang held a long knife in his hand, and with a flash of cold eyes, he killed the enemy army.

The battle for the city began again.

For a time, the swords and soldiers met each other, the sound of ping-pong was endless, and the sergeants died every moment.

The night is cold.

Under the moonlight, a scene that looks like a hell of Shura.

The sergeants on both sides are still attacking.
