Chapter 1286 Ending hastily (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)
What the enemy wants is a desperate Yu Wenxiong. Without a way out, he will naturally be loyal to them.
very good!
That will satisfy you!
Yu Wenxiong's eyes were sharp and calm, and he stared at the city.
When the enemy army is advancing, the shield bearers hold up their shields to protect the entire army. At this time, they cannot shoot them, so they can only wait.
This is an elite army. They have always protected themselves very well. The team was not in a hurry and was not disordered. There were no casualties in the process of arriving at the city.
When they were about to reach the bottom of the city, their speed suddenly increased. Up to this point, they were still calm. The soldiers at the front made way for a passage and quickly moved the ladder close to the city wall.
The rush vehicles needed for the city gate area are also delivered to the location.
"Fire the arrow!"
Yu Wenxiong shouted loudly and fired dense arrows at the enemy troops below the city. By this time, their formation had dispersed and lost the protection of their shields.
The condescending shooting caused the Wei army to finally suffer casualties, but they responded quickly, and the soldiers at the front had already begun to climb the ladder.
This is the first square matrix.
The city gate of Hun County is not large, and too many troops will cause crowding and increase casualties. The initial strength of 5,000 troops is enough.
The second phalanx at the rear did not reach the bottom of the city, but stopped halfway. After removing the shields, the soldiers knelt down in unison and drew the bows and arrows behind their backs!
They are all archers!
"Prepare!"
"Fire the arrow!"
A dense barrage of arrows shot towards the city wall.
The archery skills of these archers were very accurate. The arrows did not fall below the city, where they would hit their own people, but accurately landed on the Daning defenders on the city wall.
Obviously, their purpose was to cover the soldiers attacking the city.
Daning has the Zhenbei Army, Liang has Iron Buddha, and Wei has strong archers!
Wei State has its own unique way of training archers, and they are quite powerful troops.
Arrows rained down from the sky.
Yu Wenxiong looked calm. Fighting with archers was one of Wei's regular tactics, and he had been prepared for it.
"Raise your shield!"
The shield bearers who had been prepared on the city wall raised their shields to closely protect the soldiers.
The shield bearers stood apart and raised their shields very high. All the falling arrows were bounced away, and only a few people were shot.
Taking advantage of the gap in defense, other soldiers attacked and killed the enemy troops below the city.
"One or two, let go!"
A huge stone was pushed down by several people, and it suddenly fell. More than ten Wei soldiers were killed under it.
At this time, the enemy's arrow rain had not stopped, so the defense of the city was naturally affected. The fastest Wei soldier was almost on the ladder.
"splash!"
At this time, two soldiers guarding the city took a basin of hot oil and poured it directly.
"ah!"
Wei soldiers were poured in the face, and he let out a piercing scream under the severe pain. He was the first one. The entire Wei soldiers on the ladder were sprayed with oil, and more than ten people in the team fell down.
But this did not affect the Wei soldiers' attack on the city, and soon another group of people climbed up.
The ladder was filled with hot oil and was difficult to hold on to. They tore a piece of cloth from their clothes and wrapped it in their hands to continue climbing.
He really fought tooth and nail to defend his immortality.
That's it for siege, there is no other shortcut.
However, due to the enemy's long-range archery interference, our own city defense was greatly affected and we were unable to quickly stop the enemy.
The limited space on the city wall is also an important reason. We cannot put too many city defense materials on the city wall. One big stone takes up a lot of space.
The enemy could have set up three aerial ladders and ordinary long ladders to put up the city wall. There were too many people climbing at the same time.
"General, this won't work. The enemy's arrows are too dense."
Five thousand people changed Meng Ziang's expression. The interference from the arrow was too great, and he could not show his head at all.
Yu Wenxiong also knew that the enemy archers were so powerful that they could shoot right onto the city wall.
"Don't worry about it."
"When the enemy troops reach the city wall, they should shoot their own people."
"But the city gate cannot withstand long-term impact."
There was a constant muffled sound below the city, and the city gate kept shaking.
Although the city gate has been reinforced, it is not very solid.
"That doesn't matter, we have Wengcheng."
"But once the city gate is breached, the enemy will rush in in large numbers and it will inevitably fall."
"fine."
Yu Wenxiong remained calm, he knew that the enemy would not easily break the city.
If there were arrows interfering, I could only raise my shield to defend, and I couldn't successfully defend the city. Soon the enemy troops rushed to the city wall...
"How's it going? Is it going to be faster?"
Fan Rong started to show off again.
It has been at least a quarter of an hour since the war began, and soldiers have already stormed the city wall.
"It's very fast."
Zhu Zhen said: "But didn't you realize that Yu Wenxiong let it go on purpose? After attacking the city wall, you can't continue to shoot arrows to interfere."
"We have abundant troops. Once we occupy the city wall, we can quickly expand our advantage. Isn't it easy to capture Hun City?"
Zhu Zhen said no more.
Wei's archers are indeed worthy of admiration.
Just when the Wei soldiers attacked the city wall, the shooting stopped immediately.
"kill!"
Yu Wenxiong shouted a word.
There was no need to guard against being shot by arrows. The defenders on the city wall immediately started fighting with the Wei soldiers.
The soldiers under Yu Wenxiong's command were very powerful and worked together in groups to kill the Wei soldiers. The few Wei soldiers who rushed up were quickly killed, but there was still a steady stream of Wei soldiers climbing up the city wall.
The two sides began a tug of war!
You come and I go, each has his own injuries.
What is worthy of attention is that at the city gate, the city was trembling non-stop as enemy vehicles kept ramming into the city gate.
"Get out of the way!"
"Get out of the way!"
At this time, another large boulder was brought up and thrown down by several people. It happened to block the city gate. The enemy had to move the boulder first before they could continue to attack the city gate.
The city gate is temporarily safe.
One side attacks, the other blocks.
After another quarter of an hour like this, it was obvious that the number of Wei soldiers attacking the city was decreasing.
"Kill!"
As soon as one person rushed to the city wall, he was stabbed to death by three sharp spears. This Wei soldier was also very brave. He endured the pain and grabbed the spear shaft with force. Instead of retreating, he restrained the three people and set the stage for the subsequent charge.
The Wei soldiers gained time.
The battle was quite brutal.
The city walls were quickly filled with corpses, and there was almost no room to stand in the originally small space.
Although each suffered injuries, it was obvious that the casualties of the Wei soldiers were greater. It was naturally impossible to capture Hun County with such a force, but the Wei army's second phalanx had not yet moved.
So far, they have only invested 5,000 troops.
"How's it going? Do you still think it's easy?"
Zhu Zhen smiled lightly, thinking he had moved back to Yicheng.
"I didn't even think about actually attacking the city."
Fan Rong said: "Send the order and withdraw the troops."
"withdraw troops?"
Ling Bing thought he had heard wrongly. Shouldn't he get angry at this time?
"Retreat troops, do you hear me?"
Fan Rong raised his voice.
"yes!"
I heard it clearly this time.
The soldiers rushed to deliver the order, and soon the sound of war drums and horns stopped and turned into the sound of gold.
The Wei army obeyed the order, and the Wei army that was attacking quickly withdrew.
The first battle ended hastily.
Chapter completed!
