The siege went very poorly and was beyond Li Mengxi's expectations.

However, no matter what, once the siege begins, it cannot be stopped suddenly, otherwise so many people will be killed and injured, and their death will be in vain.

The two parts of the siege were the siege ladder and the siege gate. The siege ladder here was restricted by the protective trenches and the offensive was greatly frustrated.

Those who walk a hundred paces are half-ninety. Of course, before the siege, they were tied to high poles to explore the weak points, and they sharpened their guns before the battle and carefully practiced the offensive and defensive tactics of the soldiers. However, in addition to slightly reducing the

Apart from casualties, it is useless in siege warfare.

Because we can’t even get to the top of the city, so all the tactics of jumping over the city, only attacking but not defending, just thinking about advancing temporarily and not stopping for a moment, and avoiding the stairs when attacking the city to avoid being attacked from three sides are all useless.

.

These various tactics and arrangements can only be used until they reach the top of the city, and now, a mere deep trench has directly choked off the momentum of the siege.

When the siege of the city failed, the results of the past few days of training were most effective in the shield formation. One by one, the swordsmen and shield warriors who were trapped in the deep trench formed a relatively tight shield formation, which blocked many falling missiles from the city.

Many people were able to save themselves due to the rain of arrows.

On the messy battlefield, one small point stands out in particular.

The rescue team carried wooden umbrellas, two people carried umbrellas, and two people carried stretchers. They slowly shuttled around and carried back the injured on the wall one by one.

If the siege went smoothly, Li Mengxi would still be in the mood to see how the wounded soldiers rescued by the rescue team were doing, but now that the war was not going well, he had no energy to care about the rescue team.

The offensive against the city wall seemed to have failed.

Li Mengxi couldn't help but look at the city gate in the middle of the city wall. At the suspension bridge, the siege spine had been blocked in front of the city gate for a long time.

——

In front of the city gate, the fallen stones on the city tower had long fallen like raindrops. The ground in front of the city gate was covered with large and small stones. The big ones were as big as baskets and the small ones were as small as watermelons.

In the first siege truck in front of the city gate, the sergeants supported a suspended thick log and swung the log up. Boom. Boom. Boom. One after another, it hit the city gate. The thick and tall city gate

, the door panel has cracked and is dented in the middle. It seems that the door bolt behind the door is almost broken, and the door is about to be broken.

The number of siege trucks that followed were okay. The one that smashed the door first took the most hits. The roof of the shed was dented and cracked in several places, but it was still generally intact.

The Yellow Turbans on the city had probably finished throwing stones, and at this time only the arrows and golden juice were still attacking downwards.

The yellow scarf at the top of the city shouted and made people dodge, and another vat of golden juice was carried and fell from the city. With a splash, it was poured towards the siege spine, and the hot golden juice was poured onto the roof of the siege spine.

The gold juice fell on the roof of the shed and spattered in all directions, and a lot of it seeped into the cracked wood.

However, the roof of the shed was safe and sound, and the cowhide covering it blocked all the gold juice that penetrated.

Because the cowhide roof blocked all the light, it was dark and dark under the roof of the siege roof.

Zhang Fei was wearing an armor that looked like an iron barrel. He was also in the siege spine, still at the very front. He and another heavy armored soldier were on both sides of the siege spine, grabbing the wooden stakes and hammering hard.

The sound of the siege tower hitting the door was thump, thump, one after another, and the whole tower was trembling slightly.

The Yellow Turbans also used fire attacks on the city head. Rockets and torches were thrown at the siege spine. However, the Yellow Turbans' fire attack failed. The roof of the siege spine was covered with thick wet mud. The rockets were nailed into the mud.

It went out in a short while and couldn't burn at all.

Finally, there was a loud click, the city gate shook violently, and the door crack was knocked open a little. Zhang Fei under the roof saw this, his eyes widened, "Bump!" He roared, and everyone in the siege spine

He mustered up his strength and pushed the tree stump forward violently.

Click!

A louder noise was heard, and the city gate made an overwhelming creaking sound. After knocking on the city gate for probably more than a hundred times, the city gate finally burst open.

"Walk!"

Zhang Fei was overjoyed when he saw the city gate burst open.

Under the roof, everyone immediately let go of the tree stump and began to push the wooden poles in the cart, pushing forward with all their strength.

The siege spine was pushed by the one inside and started to move little by little.

The siege tower slowly pushed open the city gate, but suddenly the city gate stopped moving again.

Behind the city gate, there are many large stones, carts, wooden poles, tree trunks, and other messy things piled up to completely block the back of the gate.

Zhang Fei immediately felt unhappy, "Damn it!" he cursed angrily.

Before Zhang Fei could go out and clear the obstacles, the sword and shield warriors following him immediately bypassed both sides of the siege vertebra and moved forward beyond the siege vertebra.

The swordsmen and shield warriors filed in through the crack in the door, and then moved quickly and cooperatively to lift wood and stones, clearing the obstacles on both sides.

The yellow scarf on the city head exclaimed that the city gate was broken and it was a mess.

Suddenly there was the sound of flying arrows from the front, and then the screams of the sword and shield warriors sounded in the city gate.

In the middle of the siege, Zhang Fei looked deep into the city gate. He saw that after passing through the city gate, there was a city tower behind. On the tower, the yellow scarf thieves were shooting at the city gate with a crossbow.

The sword and shield warriors were carrying something, and their hands were all occupied. There was no shield to cover them, and they were completely exposed to the rain of arrows.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei immediately ordered, "Shielders move forward, form a shield formation, and block the front!"

After hearing the order, the swordsmen and shield warriors at the rear rushed in immediately, ignoring the stones and wooden piles on the ground, bypassing the obstacles, and hurried forward.

The corridor in the city gate was not long, and the sword and shield warriors quickly rushed to the other end. They had hurriedly trained the shield formation before the battle. The shield warriors gathered together one by one. The people in the front row crouched with their shields facing half up and half forward.

The second row of shieldmen are behind the first row of shieldmen, with their bodies slightly lowered. Their shields are placed forward on the shields of the first row of shieldmen. There is a third row behind them, and their shields are placed on the shields of the first two rows.

Three rows of people at the front and back, and three rows of shields from high to low, formed a shield wall stuck in the city gate.

The Yellow Turbans fired more arrows towards the city gate, but most of them were blocked by the shield wall. Now everyone in the city gate could concentrate on clearing the obstacles with a little peace of mind.

The changes that took place at the city gate fell into the eyes of Liu Bei and Li Mengxi who were watching the formation from a distance. It turned out that when they saw the siege spine smashing through the city gate and entering, the yellow scarf on the city head immediately became chaotic. Liu Bei and Li Mengxi felt light in their hearts.

, I thought the city was about to be broken, but after the first siege cone entered, the following siege cone stopped moving.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What happened again? Even if Li Mengxi stood on tiptoe and looked around, he could not see anything.

Fortunately, the siege convoy did not delay for long, and the subsequent siege convoys entered one after another.

He withdrew his gaze and glanced at other parts of the city wall. At this time, the teams attacking the city wall still had little success, and few people climbed up to the top of the city. Fortunately, the city gate was entered, otherwise the siege might have failed.

defeat.

The messy obstacles in the city gate have been cleared, and the way forward from the siege spine is clear.

Amidst the sound of wheels turning, the siege spine slowly moved forward.

The shield wall was still stuck in front, Zhang Fei shouted, "Go forward, don't block it!"

After hearing the order, the swordsmen and shield warriors immediately rushed out of the city gate with shouts of death, but they did not want to, which resulted in heavy casualties.

As soon as the sword and shield warriors rushed out of the city gate, rocks suddenly fell like rain on their heads. The shield array was no longer there, and the defense against the rain of arrows could not be tight. Under the falling rocks above their heads and the attack from the left and right bows and crossbows in front, all the sword and shield warriors who rushed out were stunned.

, he was knocked down and shot over in an instant.

The swordsman and shield warrior who had not yet rushed out of the city gate stopped immediately when he saw the person in front of him was hit hard.

At this moment, Zhang Fei realized that he had made a mistake in his order.

"Go behind! Don't block the way!" Zhang Fei shouted.

The sword and shield warriors who hesitated to step out swarmed back after hearing the order.

The siege vertebral column passed over the crowd, continued forward, and slowly drove out of the city gate hole.

The moment he walked out of the city gate, there was a falling stone. The falling stone hit the roof of the siege roof with a thumping sound.

In front of the siege spine, it is not completely tight. The blocked wooden planks have gaps and are hung with ropes. They are used to defend against arrows and facilitate entry and exit and observation of the front.

After leaving the city gate, the yellow turban crossbowman on the tower in front fired arrows. One of the arrows happened to hit the rope hanging the baffle in front of the siege wall under the roof. The rope was shot and the thick plank clanked.

dropped on the floor.

Without cover, arrows from the tower immediately found a gap and came whizzing at them.

Seeing the cold light coming, Zhang Fei had no shield in his hand, the left and right sides were narrow, and he had no place to hide, so he hurriedly raised his arms to protect his face.

The arrow directly hit Zhang Fei's arm and breastplate.

I felt the impact of more than one arrow on my body, but I didn't feel any severe pain.

Zhang Fei secretly thought, what a good armor!

At this moment, Zhang Fei finally figured out why the soldiers must stand at the front during pre-battle drills.

The space under the roof of the siege spine is narrow. Two heavy armored soldiers block it on the left and right. The two iron gates are like two iron gates, which tightly block the people behind. Otherwise, if the city head is full of fire, the people under the siege spine will die.

Eighty-eight.

"Shield me!" Zhang Fei asked the person behind him for a shield.

When he pushed the siege ladder before, he thought it was troublesome to hold a shield, so he gave the shield to the people behind him.

The person behind him handed over a shield, and Zhang Fei took it and held it in front of him. With the shield and the armor, even if a powerful crossbow was fired at close range, he would still be safe.

The siege vertebrae hurried forward, exited the city gate, and entered a circle of low city walls that was not much larger than a larger courtyard.

Wengcheng!

As soon as the siege vertebra came out, they were directly surrounded by the surrounding city walls. The Yellow Turban soldiers on the wall desperately picked up the stones and threw them at the siege vertebra. Because the city wall was close and surrounded by a small circle, the surrounding walls

All the stones thrown down can hit the siege tower.
