Chapter 455
The spear kept stabbing out of the city wall and stabbed the Liang army soldiers who were climbing on the ladder. Zhang Liao saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart.
If this wave cannot capture Fulousha City, it will not be said to waste time. Moreover, once the Liang army withdraws its troops, the Kushan defenders will get a chance to breathe and redeplousha City. In this way, the Liang army will waste a lot of tiny supplies consumed at Fulousha City this time.
In order to speed up the march, Zhang Liao did not bring much supplies this time. If he gave up this round of attack and launched another round of attack, the number of Liang's stone bombs and hot bombs might not be enough.
"Get on the ejection!" Zhang Liao shouted and ordered. Soon, more than a dozen specially made crossbows specially designed for ejection launchers lined up under the city. The short-sized Begemi ejection soldiers climbed onto the ejection seats.
He heard the general's order, and a Begemi man holding a double dagger was shot into the air by a crossbow shell. The reason why he was fired was that Liang's army still needed to estimate the accurate launch parameters. This time, the force of Liang's bow string pulling was obviously smaller. Before the ejection soldiers were bounced to the height of the city, they fell along the parabola and rushed towards the city wall.
With a puff, his whole body pounced on a Kushan spear that had not yet been retracted, and the spear penetrated him on the barrel like a candied haws.
The second ejector who tested the shooting was too high and was thrown behind the city wall. After falling down, there was no movement after hearing the sound of killing.
It was not until the third Beigemi man that he successfully climbed to the top of the city. On the top of the city, a few surviving defenders rushed towards him and fought with the Beigemi man holding double daggers. Faced with dozens or hundreds of people, the Beigemi ejectors could no longer play their agility and flexibility advantage, and were chopped into meat sauce by the opponent's guns and knives.
A defender soldier swung his scimitar and just cut off the head of the Begemi man with one knife. A wind blew up from behind his head. With a puff, a heavy arrow shot into his neck.
The Liang army under the city began a new round of coverage projections. Stone bombs, hot bombs, and longbow heavy arrows fell on the city wall in a bustling manner. The Kushan soldiers scattered again. Immediately afterwards, more than 20 Beigemi ejectors were ejected to the city wall almost at the same time. They fought with the Kushan soldiers in chaos on the city wall.
Soon, seven or eight Beigemi people fell in a pool of blood again, but a new group of Beigemi people were ejected to the top of the city. Within a quarter of the following hour, three more Beigemi people were ejected. More and more Beigemi people were ejected at the top of the city. Some of them found the entrance to the hollow mezzanine of the city wall and rushed inside.
The real entrance to the inner room of the city wall is actually at the base of the city wall, and it is impossible to enter without invading the city. The entrances found by the Beigemi people are actually just the air holes of the skylights at the top of the city wall. They are only one foot square and cannot be passed by ordinary adults at all. However, these small sizes of the Beigemi people can.
Shortly after Zhang Liao used the Beigemi projectile to shoot the soldiers, the Liang army's spear and shield soldiers began to climb up the ladder again. In the city wall, a Kushan soldier saw the Liang army soldier through the gap, and stabbed him hard with a spear in his hand, stabbing him in the middle of the eyebrows with a shot, stabbing the other party under the city. But he was in a daze and saw a white light flashing in front of him, and a dagger had stabbed into his left rib. He turned his head and did not see where the other party was. It was not until he slipped to the ground that he found a short figure in the dark corner.
More than a dozen Beigemi ejectors silently sneaked into the hollow of the city wall and launched a sneak attack on the Kushan soldiers there. In this narrow and dark space, they were short but flexible and had great advantages. The Kushan defenders kept losing their daggers.
Taking advantage of the chaos of the defenders in the city wall, some Liang soldiers who were climbing the ladder took the opportunity to climb to the top of the city. They waved their shields and swords to attack the Kushan soldiers. At this time, only the Kushan soldiers were left on the Kushan side on the city wall, and the civilians had already fled without a trace.
With the reinforcements of the Liang army's gun and shield soldiers, the pressure on the Beigemi people at the city top was greatly reduced, and more Beigemi ejectors jumped into the space inside the city wall from the skylight air holes of only one foot in radius, and attacked the Kushan soldiers hidden in it. This also led to the threat of Liang army soldiers climbing up the ladder, allowing more Liang army soldiers to successfully climb to the walls of Fulousha City Wall.
The Liang army's offensive thus formed a positive and virtuous cycle, and more and more Liang army soldiers climbed to the top of the city. Outside the city, the crossbow gunners had extended the landing point of the projectile into Fulousha City, and the same was true for the bomb-dropping Qiang Eagle in the air.
The huge stone bullets and fireballs drew parabolic trajectories in the air, crossing the city wall and smashing towards the depths of Fulousha City. From time to time, building pavilions were hit by stone bullets on the street. After the stone collapsed, the tiles were cracked and made a huge shattering sound, and sometimes it was accompanied by a terrifying cry from people. The Kushan Wang Botiao, who was hidden in the secret room of the royal palace, was already trembling, and he could already feel the aura of death approaching.
When the Liang army soldiers on the city wall gathered to a certain extent, they attacked the city. They lined up in small square formations and rushed down with shields as walls. The soldiers in the back row inserted the sword knife back into the scabbard and shot out a series of iron beads with the slingshot on the top of the shield. The dense iron beads with huge kinetic energy would block their Kushan soldiers on the ladder. The soldiers in the front row waved the sword steel knife and slashed and stabbed the enemy soldiers who blocked them.
How could the Kushan army, which was already in a mess, resist such an offensive? After a little contact with the Liang army, they fled to the city. The Liang army opened the north and east gates of Fulousha City one after another. The Liang army reserve team, who had been waiting outside the city, rushed in, and the iron armored giant ape warriors were still in front of them.
On Fulosha Street, the Liang army attacked from the city gate and the city walls gradually gathered into several streams of people and rushed towards the palace. There were also some scattered Liang soldiers, who rode to set up laid-off posts at the intersections of each street.
At this time, there were still many Kushan soldiers in the city, but the system had been completely disrupted. Both the generals and soldiers had no fighting spirit. They took off their armor and robbed and fled to the residential area in a panic. Some even quietly opened the gates of the west and south walls without the Liang army and ran out of the city, but were soon intercepted by the Liang army cavalry who were ambushing there.
The Liang army that poured into the city gathered in front of the palace gate and began to attack the palace city. Six giant ape soldiers used the giant trees in their hands as attacking rams, and knocked the palace gate open in a few strokes. The other six giant ape soldiers led the arrows shot by the Kushan Palace Guards and stabbed them with long swords in their hands, bringing down all the Kushan Guards blocked at the door. Thousands of Liang soldiers rushed into the palace...
