Chapter four hundred and nineteen fierce battle
Bian Zhang cursed for a while, and saw that the other party had no tendency to go out of the city to fight, he immediately ordered the army to start an attack...
Thousands of stone catapults were pushed forward, and several operators were filling stones next to each stone catapult. At the same time, countless Pu Dao soldiers were carrying the siege ladder to move towards the city wall under the cover of heavy shield soldiers.
What made Yang Tian even more confused was that Beigong Boyu's army actually had relatively unparalleled siege equipment such as the Siege Arrow Tower. Fortunately, these were just small siege Arrow Towers, with only a few hundred units in the number. Otherwise, the primary city wall of Hanxing City would be completely suppressed and beaten.
There are some of Yang Tian’s ghost rings in this thing, but the number is not very large, and now they belong to the city guarding place, so there is no need for such things.
Zhang Wen stood on the top of the city, looking at the siege arrow towers, his face looked a little bad, and said, "It seems that these guys are planning to take Hanxing City in one go. Brother Yang, you have to be more careful."
Yang Tian smiled coldly and said, "Brother Zhang, don't worry! With the things he shows now, it is impossible to seize the city wall from me."
"I'll feel relieved if this way!" Zhang Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
"Bandit driver! Go aim at the siege arrow tower and beat it down!" Yang Tian looked at the siege arrow tower that had already driven four hundred meters away and immediately ordered.
"Get on the crossbow arrow!" The general who was commanding the crossbow chariot roared.
"Aim!…attack!"
"Swoosh..." Only a neat voice was heard, and more than seventy crossbow arrows roared towards the siege arrow towers...
For this huge siege arrow tower, it is too easy to hit the siege arrow tower, and with the attack strength of the mountain-piercing crossbow, it is very simple to shoot through these siege arrow towers. However, it is not so easy to collapse these siege arrow towers. Over this crossbow arrow, a transparent hole appeared on all the siege arrow towers. Among them, three crossbow arrows penetrated the candied haws of several archers standing on the top of the archer tower. They did not expect until their death that the opponent's crossbow arrows could directly penetrate the solid baffle in front of them...
These crossbow arrows that penetrated the siege arrow tower did not stop. After firing hundreds of meters, they took away the lives of several soldiers behind the rebels before they were inserted into the soil.
Beigong Boyu looked behind him with shock. The crossbow arrows were flying directly above his head. The scream made him experience the threat of death in an instant. He didn't expect that the other party's crossbow arrows were so powerful that they could attack so far. You must know that before the rebellion, he also had some understanding of the imperial army. In the entire territory of the Han Dynasty, intermediate crossbows could be created at most, and the range could not be so far. But now it seems that his intelligence seems to be wrong...
"Start up!... Prepare for the catapult! Suppress the long-range attack units on the city wall." Beigong Boyu immediately changed his strategy.
The drumbeat behind him immediately changed, and the army that was advancing steadily immediately began to charge, and the row of hundreds of medium-sized stone thieves began to load into stones and were ready to throw them on the city wall.
"Aim!...attack!" The crossbow carriage general on the city wall issued an orderly order. He had only one task, that is, during the time when the enemy rushed over, he would destroy the opponent's siege arrow tower as much as possible, and at the same time kill the opponent's living power. He was very confident in this because he had the expertise of crossbow carriages. He could greatly improve the accuracy of the attack and destructive power of the crossbow carriages.
"Preparation for the catapult! Aim at the opponent's catapult to attack." Yang Tian immediately issued an order when he saw that the opponent's catapult was ready to start attacking.
Suddenly, countless huge rocks flew up in the sky and shot towards the opponent's position at a rapid speed. Occasionally, two huge rocks collided in the air, broke into pieces and fell on the ground, and the rebels below cried and shouted to their parents. More often they fell around the scattered fronts on both sides.
Then it was obvious that the gap between the catapult operators of both sides was clearly seen. In the first round of confrontation, five catapults in the rebel camp were scrapped, while only one of Baiyun City had broken one lever. As long as the carpenter repaired it, it could be used again. Although there is a factor in the city wall in this comparison, the strength of the operators of both sides could not be ignored.
The stone casting tool continues to throw, and the siege arrow tower continues to advance...
Beigong Boyu saw that two siege arrow towers were destroyed, and his heart was bleeding! Each siege arrow tower was not easy to obtain. It has been scrapped before it has been made. How could he not feel distressed? However, Beigong Boyu also knew the range of the opponent's crossbow cart. Even if he ordered the retreat, there were probably not many siege towers that could be removed intact. It would be better to rush forward and take a gamble.
The Park Daobing, who was carrying the siege ladder, finally arrived more than 200 meters away from the city wall. Although these soldiers were occasionally hit by a rock that was hit by a deviated one, they were not taken care of after all, so the losses were not large. At this time, they had already rushed to the range of the archers. If they were not careful to protect, they might have to be wiped out after one or two rounds of arrows. However, the heavy shield soldiers standing in front of them also gave them a lot of courage.
"Arrowman! Two hundred meters ahead! Shoot..." Yang Tian waved his hand and issued an attack order.
The war drums were ringing on the city wall, and all the fighters holding bows and arrows raised their bows and arrows in their hands and pulled the strings to shoot. Suddenly, the rain of arrows covered the positions ahead, and their sharp energy brought out a harsh sound of breaking the wind.
"ah……"
"My arm..."
"Ouch……"
The rebels rushing to the front immediately suffered a fatal blow. The chain mail or plate armor on their bodies could not stop the attack of these arrows. The soldiers fell down one by one like cutting wheat! What made these people most frightened was that few of the arrows shot into the robes were inserted, and they were basically lifted through them, which showed how powerful they were.
The sound of war drums behind the rebels became even more urgent! The strictly trained army would not turn around and run away because of this loss. They were still desperately rushing forward...
After all the troops in Baiyun City shot four wheels, the rebels below rushed to the city wall after paying nearly 100,000 lives. They quickly set up the siege ladder, and made the iron hook on the top of the ladder tightly fixed on the wall, and then climbed up quickly.
The archers on the city wall ignored the rebels who were climbing up. They continued to design the dense army below. The other party's dense formation basically did not need to aim, and more than 50% of the arrows could hit the target. Moreover, on such a battlefield, the chance of the wounded is very low! Basically, as long as you lose your combat effectiveness after being caught, even if you don't die immediately, you will be trampled to death by the army behind you.
The rebels crawling in the front had already emerged from the city wall, but almost instantly the Fire Dragon Salute Guard on the wall was pierced through the head with a long halberd.
These rebels were also very fierce. Some even took their weapons and slashed at the defenders on the city wall after being attacked. However, the gap in strength between the two sides made all their struggles in vain. The other party didn't spend much effort, so they made them fall off the city wall and fell to the ground to form a pile of meat paste.
This situation is constantly repeating on the entire city wall...
Beigong Boyu's face was as deep as water. Judging from this situation, it would be impossible for him to take down this city wall in a short time. Looking at the millions of troops standing behind him, he issued a crazy order to make the army launch a full-scale attack on Hanxing City. He didn't believe that the other party could arrange the four walls like an iron barrel.
...
"Brother Yang, it seems that there is no problem with you for the time being. I'll go to the other walls for a walk!" Zhang Wen saw that the war was stable and the Baiyun City army was brave enough to fight this situation completely, so he was ready to leave.
Yang Tian naturally would not stop him and said, "Brother Zhang just goes there. With our Baiyun City army here, these rebels can't make any big waves!"
Zhang Wen patted Yang Tian on the shoulder and left with a cold expression. After all, the opponent was coming in a fierce manner, and the number of people was several times that of his own. The advantage of Baiyun City did not mean that the other three walls could also defend the opponent's attack.
After Zhang Wen left, Guo Jia smiled faintly and said, "Lord, now we can let the army attack with all our might!"
"Attack with all your might!" Yang Tian said, "This opportunity to earn points must be grasped!"
If Zhang Wen heard Guo Jia's words, I don't know what he would think! The situation he saw just now was deliberately concealed by Baiyun City. Fortunately, Zhang Wen didn't stay here for too long, otherwise some people would have died in the Baiyun City army, but it would be really unreasonable. Although Zhang Wen seems to be good to Yang Tian now, he is also a member of the court. If the strength of Baiyun City is spread to the court, it will somewhat arouse some people's suspicion.
So these rebels were tragedy. They were basically in the fifth and sixth level strength, and they had no room for fighting back in front of these eighth level special troops. Moreover, the equipment of the troops in Baiyun City was several levels higher than these rebels, which made the gap infinitely widen. Not to mention that these rebels are still on the siege side now, so they can only be suppressed and beaten.
However, it is not that the rebel camp has made no achievements. After all, there are still many generals in the army that launched the charge. These people are able to pose a threat to the Baiyun City army on the city wall. Especially once, a general with king level strength climbed up along the siege ladder, then suddenly jumped up, killed two Flame Dragon Sword Guards, rushed into the army holding bows and arrows, and caught the Baiyun City army off guard. In an instant, seven or eight soldiers died. At the same time, a large number of rebels immediately rushed up below, and the defense of the city wall was in danger.
Fortunately, several leading generals in Baiyun City were always paying attention to the entire war. The wall that happened to be in trouble happened to be taken by Huang Zhong. He immediately took out the sunset divine bow and shot the general with an arrow, hitting his chest, making this guy die at the beginning. Without the support of this master, the rebels who rushed up could not make any waves at all, and were soon killed by the Baiyun City army...
