Chapter 150 Meat Grinder Siege
Chapter 150 Meat Grinder Siege
Nonsense, not to mention being out of energy, hungry and demoralized, anyone would be unable to bear being sent to attack the city walls every day.
As Ruan Weiba rushed forward, he greeted Lian Yong's mother, mother-in-law, grandmother and others warmly and cordially.
Who in the family understands?
Since arriving in ** City, he was sent to fight for three consecutive days when he was in the First Corps. After the night attack that night, the First Corps was almost wiped out and the general was killed, so he was assigned to the Third Corps.
The bad news is that the First and Second Corps have been reorganized, and the Third Corps has become the leading corps again.
You said you can take the lead, so we can take turns, right?
Today we have a regiment, tomorrow we will be replaced by another one, and the day after tomorrow by another one, so we can all take a break.
Fair, can you please be fair?
Why has it been our Third Corps that has been on the front lines for five consecutive days?
Do you know how many people died in the Third Corps in these five days?
Although Ruan Weiba was able to survive successfully every time with his superb "hiding" skills, if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet.
No matter how lucky a person is, he can't withstand such a beating.
Even if a bulletproof vest is bulletproof, you can’t keep shooting with a gun!
Ruan Weiba could only make a bitter face, holding a shield in his left hand and a big knife in his right hand, and move forward.
He used to be a spearman, but the goddess of luck always favored him. When all his comrades died, he picked up a shield and a sword on the battlefield, threw away his spear, and disguised himself as a shieldman.
It greatly increased his chances of survival.
Soon, he rushed into the enemy's attack range, and the arrows from the top of the city and the stones from the catapults came down like they were free.
Ruan Weiba used his snake-skin maneuvering to block arrows and dodge stone bullets, and finally reached the bottom of the city wall.
However, at this time, more intensive attacks such as stones, rolling logs and crossbows came from the top of the city.
Ruan Weiba kept his principles in mind, did not fight or compete, stayed away from the ladder, dodged and moved around, showed off his acting skills, and pretended to be very busy.
Then wait for the troops to retreat.
But as the fight went on, Ruan Weiba felt something was wrong.
The attacks on the city walls weren’t this strong before. What happened today? Are the enemies going crazy?
We are obviously just here to make a feint attack, but you still want to kill us?
Is it that serious?
However, just as he was considering running further away to hide, and even venturing to go under the city gate, suddenly, there was a loud sound of drums behind him.
This is the sound of a marching drum, but we are already attacking the city. So who are these marching drums for?
Ruan Weiba turned his head and saw that among the army that came out together, there were three more corps, roaring and charging forward.
I'm in a big trough!
what's the situation?
For several days in a row, we were the only ones here to die! Why are so many people here today?
Are you all here to supervise the battle?
Then, he saw a huge banner slowly coming towards him in the distance.
The coach is here?
It’s time for a general attack!
What Ruan Weiba felt was not surprise, but fear.
A siege battle where all efforts are made is like a Shura field.
Human life is the least valuable.
This battle will last at least from morning till dark.
On the top of the city wall, Shen Changgong saw the big flag in the distance and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Sure enough, on the last day, Yuhuatian could no longer hold back and launched a general attack.
Shen Changgong shouted angrily with a loud speaker,
"Brothers! We have no way to retreat. Behind us is His Majesty!
Swing your weapons, draw your bows and arrows, defend ** City, and protect His Majesty the Emperor!
I will fight the enemy with you and defend our country!
His Majesty is watching you!
Call me! "
The soldiers on the city wall looked at the enemy army rushing towards them like mad, roaring, raising stones and logs high, and smashing them down hard.
The burning kerosene poured down to the ladders below, burning the Kun army so much that their faces were covered with blisters and they rolled on the ground in severe pain.
Then a torch was thrown down, ending their suffering immediately.
But the enemy's offensive was too fierce. Even though there were catapults behind the city wall constantly throwing kerosene cans and burning a large area, the enemy still managed to bypass and charge in.
Seeing this, Shen Changgong frowned and turned around and walked from the wall of the city wall to the inner city wall.
The empress was standing on the city gate tower, watching the siege below.
She didn't have to do anything, just standing there was enough to inspire the soldiers' courage to fight to the death.
The idea of loyalty to the emperor and serving the country has long been deeply engraved in the soldiers' bones.
Shen Changgong did not speak to the empress. He came to the inner city wall and shouted to the commander of the baggage camp below,
"Don't throw them blindly. Stop all the catapults. Aim at a single distance and attack intensively. Form a line of fire on the outer battlefield to cut off the enemy's main force."
"As ordered!"
The commander of the baggage camp immediately rode back and forth on horseback, shouting for the catapults to stop, and then got everything ready and launched them out together.
A whole row of kerosene cans were fired out simultaneously.
A large sea of fire formed outside.
The sea of fire formed a line and burned fiercely, completely blocking the advance of the enemy's subsequent troops.
And in the open space under the city wall, there are more than 10,000 people attacking the city.
During the short time that Shen Changgong was away, while the supplies were being replenished on the top of the city wall, the Kun army below took the opportunity to climb up. The elite soldiers who had reached the camp first, after reaching the top of the city wall, immediately waved their swords and slashed at the people around them.
As soon as these advance guards arrived at the camp, the Yan army unconsciously lost their composure.
Shen Changgong immediately stepped forward, drew his two swords from his waist, and shouted,
"Follow me and kill them!"
When the soldiers saw Lanling King coming, they were all encouraged and attacked the enemy with spears and swords.
Shen Changgong dodged and moved quickly, charging into the crowd. He raised his sword and swung it wildly, like a pair of poisonous snakes, taking the lives of the enemy soldiers accurately and gracefully.
Shen Changgong's bravery greatly boosted morale.
As for the soldiers from the first camp who reached the top of the city wall, their number was small to begin with, and they only had knives in their hands. They were all quickly killed, and their bodies were used to smash the soldiers below.
After blocking this round of attack, Yu Huatian on the opposite side also ordered the withdrawal of the corps that had suffered heavy casualties on the front line, and replaced it with three more corps.
It was already noon, but Yuhuatian still refused to stop. It seemed that he was determined to break into the city in one go.
While the opponent was changing players, Shen Changgong immediately ordered his own defenders to change defense.
The soldiers on standby had already eaten in advance, and after receiving the order, they immediately rushed forward.
The Yan army, which had been fighting on the city wall for the whole morning, could now go down to rest, eat, and heal their wounds.
The army below, pushing siege vehicles, marched forward...
