Outside the city, trebuchets threw huge stones and smashed them on the city wall, and a boulder and a pit fell on the head of the city, and a stone killed a life. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Thirty-five steps back left!" Next to the gap in the city wall, Yu Wenjie waved the command flag in his hand and used the flag language to indicate the direction of the city.

Inside the city, heavy infantry lifted stones and placed them on long cantilevers, marking each test as they landed closer and closer to the target. In the sound of the trumpet, the heavy infantry pulled up the rope, and the stones that returned fire flew out, the flag in Yu Wenjie's hand was still green, indicating that he was six steps away from the target, Meng Yichuan roared angrily and picked up the stones, and the cantilever was raised again in the sound of the heavy infantry's trumpet.

The boulder drew an arc of death in the air and smashed on the trebuchet outside the city, and the sawdust flew in all directions with a click, hitting the target, and Yu Wenjie raised the red flag with his left hand.

"Change the fire pack!"

Meng Yichuan stared at the disc on the trebuchet, waited for the cantilever to be lifted to the previous mark, cut the rope with a knife, and threw the fire bag on the cantilever out, and the fire light rose from the roar outside the city. The tired heavy infantry could not see the results of the battle, and when moving the heavy trebuchet, they did not forget to peek at the order flag in Yu Wenjie's hand, and when they saw the red and green order flags waving crosswise, their steps were faster in the cheers.

"Disperse!" The heavy infantry tried firing several times, and when they destroyed the target, they also exposed their positions, and saw several trebuchets in the distance turning their directions, Yu Wenjie kept waving the Lingqi in his hand in the shout, Meng Yichuan looked at the Lingqi and looked at the trebuchet, and continued to shout the trumpet ruthlessly, ignoring the dodge alarm she issued. Yu Wenjie scolded the bastard and hurriedly ran to the outer wall to observe.

The stone smashed on the heavy shield that was hurriedly erected, and blood foamed from the corner of Meng Yichuan's mouth, but he didn't take half a step back, looking at the intact trebuchet beside him and laughing. A trebuchet with a precise scale is a sharp weapon against the besieging enemy, and it takes several days for the warsmith to repair it after it is broken, and after more than a month of continuous fighting, the speed of the warcraftman's manufacture and repair is far from catching up with the damage. It takes a heavy infantry patrol to make a trebuchet run easily, how can it be easily destroyed, and the heavy infantry would rather be killed or wounded under the boulders than give up the weapon of protecting the city.

The bed crossbow was broken, repaired, repaired, and finally all scrapped, the machine crossbow and trebuchet became less and less, the strength of the student soldiers to fight back weakened day by day, and the heavy weapons of the mercenaries attacking the city were almost exhausted, and the hand-to-hand combat made the soldiers red-eyed, and every city wall was fighting, and the student soldiers rushed out of the arrow tower, wielding swords and guns to kill the enemy with the soldiers, and there was no need for command and tactics on the city.

A team of 100 cavalry archers braved the rain of arrows at the head of the city to charge, the people and horses who were hit by the arrows fell on the road, and the corpses made the rear team trample into flesh and mud, and after approaching the city wall, they jumped off their horses, hid behind the war horses and kept pulling the bowstring, and shot at the students at the head of the city. The horse fell with an arrow, and the master stabbed the horse in the neck, knelt down behind the corpse and shot it on his back until he also lay down beside his companion, and the blood of man and horse mixed together stained the land red.

The archers rushed up, someone in the front row fell from an arrow, the people behind him stepped forward a few steps to fill the position, Tianming launched an attack, and the troops were collected and returned to the camp after dark, the number of centurians under the wall did not change, but they had already changed their faces, and there was a corpse several feet thick under their feet, which was the brother who had died in the previous battle. Shoot the enemy to death, and then let the new enemy shoot to death, the same mind on and off the city, the only difference is that the student soldiers who have lost their combat power in the city will let the female soldiers stand up and go to the wounded barracks for treatment, and the wounded soldiers outside the city can only wait for death in the struggle, making the eyes of the living people next to them redder.

The high ladder ran through the rain of arrows under the cover of the archers, the iron hooks on the ladder were fastened to the city wall, and the infantry bit a sharp blade in their mouths, holding a shield in one hand and a ladder in the other, and climbed up the ladder to the wall. The crossbowmen who guarded the arrow tower gave up shooting the enemy who climbed the city, and shot the crossbow arrows mercilessly at the enemy below the city, and one more crossbowman would make the light infantry at the battlement less threatening, and one more ladder would make the light infantry less brutal hand-to-hand combat. The light infantry is protecting the crossbowmen with their lives, and the crossbowmen cover the light infantry with arrows, and no one thinks it is unfair, if the light infantry is all killed, throw away the bow and crossbow and draw the long knife, and the crossbowmen will die faster when the crossbowmen are in close combat.

A shot stabbed the mercenary on the ladder, drew a gun and swept the corpse down, smashing the enemy behind, before he could turn around, several long arrows were shot in the chest, and the roar of the captain of the cadet was like a dying beast, and he jumped down with both hands supporting the green bricks at the battlement. The mercenary who had just climbed close to the battlements on the ladder, and before he could scream, he let the corpse of the captain of the cadet, no, the seriously injured body, fall down with a series of mercenaries behind him.

"Captain, spear!" cried the sentry commander as he led the men to the battlement, and several axes cut the iron buckles fastened on them, and the spears were propped up on the ladder, and the ladder was overturned with a roar, and several of the spear-wielding soldiers were shot by arrows. Another sentry rushed forward with his shield in hand, pulled away his crying partner, wiped away his tears and shouted, "Cry, change your bow, shoot!" The spear leaned against the battlements, and the longbow of the light infantry shot countless arrows of vengeance.

Several sections of the city wall, which had been badly destroyed by trebuchets, collapsed in the mercenaries' heads, and the soldiers on the wall and the enemies under the wall were buried together in the loess mound.

"Queue—"

The mercenary iron cavalry rushed to the gap like a tide, the cold light of the sabers was dazzling, and in the city, the heavy shields were like walls, the iron spears were like forests, and the phalanx of heavy infantry was dense enough to meet the enemy's horse team. Flesh and blood collided again and again, iron spears pierced countless war horses, people kept falling behind heavy shields, and the thundering heavy infantry phalanx, like a heavy iron wall blocking the gap, did not retreat an inch.

On the wall next to the gap, female soldiers carried dirt bags and stones and threw them down. Until now, the reserves have been pulled up the city wall, and the battalions have been reorganized several times. The west city wall is the target of the mercenaries' key attacks, and the two standard commanders of the garrison student battalion were killed and three were wounded.

"Thunder, stay where you are!"

The non-stop impact of the mercenaries made the heavy infantry phalanx seriously attrition, Lei Ming's hands holding guns were trembling, seeing that the formation of the standard team was about to collapse, the captain standing at the head of the wall and commanding jumped down with the personal guards, the spear was like a dragon waving in the enemy group, and the long knife cut down one mercenary after another with a hook, making the fox clear with tears, and hissing ordered the female soldiers to speed up the throwing of dirt bags and push stones, although it was very likely to kill the comrades of the personal guards, but she had no choice, she could not let the school captain and the personal guards make senseless sacrifices.

"Steady—"

In the gap, the captain's iron armor was shattered, and most of the guards had been killed, he and the wounded could not rush out, and he did not want to rush out when he jumped, and saw the gap increase in height by foot, and before falling, he used his last strength to warn, so that the thunder and heavy infantry, who were about to lose their minds, were nailed to the spot like iron stakes.

The captain and the guards blocked the gap with their lives, allowing the western wall to once again block the mercenary attack. The elders of the Hu Li Legion who rushed to reinforce were in tears, and every nail leaf on his body kept dripping with blood. Duan Na sent two martial arts sects to attack, and Hu Li, in order not to affect the students, was even more afraid of endangering Mei Ying's safety, so he designed to lead the two to fight outside the city. The contest between the martial arts sects, how can the mercenaries resist, I don't know how many people died tragically under the strength, which directly led to the inability of the mercenaries outside the west city wall to follow, so that the gap could be plugged as soon as possible.

The two martial arts sects let Hu Li kill one and seriously injure the other, and the mercenary generals were all frightened, seeing that the army's heart was shaken and the soldiers had no fighting spirit, Kantar ordered the troops to retire and fight again in the future.

"The instructor of the standard battalion and the captain of the empire are teaching us with their lives what it means to be loyal to the empire and fight bravely!

Hu Li's roar spread throughout the western city wall, and the student soldiers silently lowered their blades, helped the wounded brother, and with tears on their faces, they gave a military salute in the direction of the gap. As the future emperor's ** officer, the death of the captain and the personal guard has made everyone's soul undergo a baptism.

"Thunder!"

Lei Ming endured the pain and ran up the city wall, Hu Li wiped the tears from his face, straightened his clothes and armor, took the military flag in the hands of the guards, and handed it over with both hands.

"Lei Ming, temporary acting lieutenant, if Xicheng fails, military law will be ruthless!" Hu Li turned his head and left after giving the order, unwilling to stay for a moment longer. The instructor who served as the standard commander was either dead or seriously injured, and Lei Ming had to take on the heavy responsibility of commanding, and at this time, the responsibility was far heavier than the glory of promoting the military rank. Lei Ming raised the military flag with both hands, and a neat slogan came from behind Hu Li: "Loyal to the empire, fight bravely!"

Upstairs in Xicheng, Mei Ying heard the slogan, threw away the knife and pen and ran out, the women's guard team on duty stood in a few rows at the door to stop her, the captain could no longer hide it, and reported with tears: "County Lord, the captain died in battle." Mei Ying froze in place, and when she heard the slogan, she had a premonition that something was wrong, but the bad news was more difficult to accept than expected, the lord of the first battalion would die in battle, and how cruel the battle would be.

The mercenaries evacuated the southern city wall and launched a general attack from three sides, Mei Ying ignored Hu Li and the captains, and insisted on leading the women's guard team to guard the west city tower. The captain who defended the western wall stayed by the side of the building during the day, not allowing Mei Ying to take a step, and several times faced her long sword without retreating, Mei Ying could only give in and stay in the strong city tower to direct the defense. Fang Cai also quarreled with the captain for a few words not long after, and was annoyed that he prevented her from inspecting the city wall, but who knew that it was a farewell at this time.

"The county lord is at fault, and the guards are all killed!" The responsibility is on the body, the military law is ruthless, how can the women's guards not understand Mei Ying's mood, but they can't let the county lord take the risk - the corpses of the mercenaries piled up outside the city have hidden archers who are good at shooting before, and on the four city walls, there have been officers who have died under the hidden arrows. Before burning the body, Mei Ying could not appear on the city wall except for going out of the building to return to the county lord's account, and was not even allowed to approach the window, thinking of the captain's painstaking arrangement, Mei Ying could no longer suppress her emotions, and pulled out her sword to scold: "Dare to stop me again, kill!" The female guard called out to the county lord, but no one gave way out, the sword in Mei Ying's hand trembled, and after a stalemate for a while, she threw away the long sword, swept down the paperwork on the table and cried bitterly.

"The county lord is safe and sound, although the student soldier is still glorious in death, if there is the slightest mistake, the student soldier who died in battle is difficult to look at, and the living student soldier must be all martyred. Which is more important, please Your Highness weigh yourself, and no one will stop you. ”

Hu Li winked as he spoke, the female guards retreated and let go of the building, Mei Ying climbed on the table and cried even more sadly, Yan Ning wiped away her tears and walked in, helping Mei Ying to help her sort out her armor.

"The battle between the north and the south has been fought to this day, tens of thousands of students and guards have been killed, almost everyone is wounded, Mei Ying, the strength of the will to resist will determine the final success or failure, you must wipe away your tears and become strong, and bring the hope of victory to the students.
