Chapter 69 The Great War (2)

"How many people did Yue Fei take out!"

Ye Xiao, who had been watching the battle on the tower, asked. In the Yellow Turban camp below, the shield soldiers are advancing in a neat line.
The siege equipment in the rear was also continuously being carried out.

"General Yue took away 2000 people!"

Bai Qi said: "We now have 6000 soldiers participating in the defense of the city. Excluding the [-] cavalry and [-] sneak attack troops, there are also [-] soldiers guarding the city gates. The rest are here!"

"How many people participated?"

"About 1000 people!"

Ye Xiao nodded, looking at the Yellow Turbans who were constantly moving, his heart tensed up immediately.

Before the camp of the Yellow Turban Army, the soldiers who had just replenished their physical strength and food, each wearing a yellow scarf, were following the command flag and adjusting their formation.

The first ones to come out were the shield soldiers. Their role was to escort the siege soldiers below them safely into the bottom of the tower.

The archers followed behind, responsible for shooting against the archers on Ye Xiao's side, reducing the pressure on the shield soldiers.

Behind the archers was a tower about the same height as Yingchuan County. Below the tower, dozens of soldiers were fully armed, pushing the tower covered with an iron base and slowly advancing.

This scene is similar to when Niu Dashan attacked the city.

The only difference is that their formation is lined up in a long line, almost as long as the entire southern city wall of Yingchuan County.

"What are they planning to do!"

Ye Xiao asked: "Why are the troops so scattered!"

Bai Qi on the side didn't even think about it: "Ye Shuai, my subordinates guess that they should be preparing to attack the entire South City Gate!"

Ye Xiao immediately understood Bai Qi's words, but he was shocked.

The south city wall of Yingchuan County is almost 500 feet away. The battle line is so long, it will naturally be disadvantageous to the side with fewer people!
Here at Ye Xiao, including the common people, there are only 7000 people, and there are more than 4 people on the other side!
7000 people were scattered throughout the five-hundred-foot city tower, and the defense was very passive.

"Don't worry, Ye Shuai, they burned down a lot of their siege equipment last night. They just wanted to do that. Without the help of a ladder, they definitely can't go up!"

Ye Xiao nodded, commanding in front of the battle is not his forte, and the rest is for nothing.

Bai Qi then ordered that several parties should keep an eye on the positions of the opponent's ladders, and focus on deploying troops in positions with many ladders!

Soon, the shield soldiers protected the siege soldiers and advanced within the range of Ye Xiao's archers. Following Bai Qi's order, arrows rained in clusters, and began to shoot at the people below with a cold light. The Yellow Turbans smashed over!

Jingle!

Jingle!

The sound of metal arrows hitting the shield and clashing with weapons rang out one after another.

Under the city, the Yellow Turban Army continued to suffer to the end, and some were shot directly into a hornet's nest!

After three rounds of volleys, at the cost of hundreds of people lost, the archers of the Yellow Turban Army also advanced into the range.

This time, the pressure on Ye Xiao increased dramatically!Casualties are also rising!

The archers on both sides suppressed each other, and the Yellow Turban Army moved very quickly, and the ladder was immediately placed on the top of the city of Yingchuan County.

At the same time, the huge tower has advanced to the distance where it can shoot at the defenders!
Whoosh whoosh!
There are not many soldiers on the tower, but there are even fewer people here in Ye Xiao!

Under the double blow of the city and the tower, people began to fall down in pain!

"Rocket, rocket!"

When the archers heard this, they immediately wanted to ignite their arrows, and fired at the tower one after another!

The Yellow Turban Army has been prepared for a long time, and there is a soldier on the tower who is responsible for putting out the fire!
Before the rockets on Ye Xiao's side were ignited, the fire-fighting soldiers hiding behind the archers began to use the damp cloth they had prepared long ago to extinguish the rockets one by one!
Bai Qi was shocked when he saw it, the coach of the Yellow Turban Army arranged it very well!

"Aim at the upper middle part and shoot!"

The archer heard the words, and the speed of shooting slowed down.

It is not an easy task to shoot a wooden stake that is only as thick as a thigh at this distance.

But now that they have begun to attack the city, the archers on their side can retreat to a rear position to launch, ignoring the archers of the Yellow Turban Army below the city.

The ladder has been erected, and the siege soldiers have begun to climb.

The archers below will only fight back and suppress when Ye Xiao throws down the rolling wood and stone!
"Kill!"

"Rush, rush up!"

With a bloodthirsty look on their faces, the Yellow Turban Army bravely climbed up the ladder without fear of death!

Being attacked by someone at night, and being passed by the cavalry in the morning, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were all suffocating in their hearts!
Since the uprising, they have been in full swing wherever they go, and they are rarely attacked by surprise!
In addition, there are only 1000 people on the other side, how can their proud hearts bear it?

"Avenge my dead brother!"

"Kill these lackeys of the imperial court!"

Those soldiers climbing up the ladder, holding their shields, were constantly bombarded by boulders and rolling logs above!
Their morale is high, and the morale of the defenders is even higher!
They knew the Yellow Turban Army's bad deeds, and basically they would not accept surrender wherever they went. They always wanted to kill all the officers and soldiers in the city, and then ransacked the occupied land.

So at the mobilization meeting before the war, Ye Xiao told them.

No reinforcements!

No supplies!

Even if Yingchuan County uses up an arrow, it cannot be recreated.

If you want to survive, you have to defeat them!

This is the same as fighting with your back!
Everyone wants to live, and only with this belief can people burst out to their greatest potential!
"Kill, kill them all!"

"Never allow them to rush to the top of the city!"

"Swear to defend Yingchuan County to the death!"

The battle lasted for nearly two hours, and in the end, not a single Yellow Turban army rushed to the top of the city!
Before the evening came, the Yellow Turban Army finally remembered the sound of Mingjin.

Bo Fang's first siege was half-true and half-testing. After seeing the opponent's bravery, he finally decided to attack again under the persuasion of Bo Li, waiting for another group of soldiers to arrive.

Although there was an element of a feint in this battle to defend the city, the brutality of the battlefield far exceeded Ye Xiao and Bo Fang's expectations.

One side is suffocating, the other side is to survive!

Both sides have come up with the most powerful morale and offensive means!

According to post-war statistics, this two-hour attack actually caused the Polish side to lose nearly 5000 lives!

In addition to being attacked twice, they only had 4 people left at this time!
This is not counting the siege equipment. In this battle, 5 ladders were smashed, and [-] towers were shot into the tower and burned to the ground!

In the middle army of the Yellow Turban Army, Bo Fang listened coldly to the logistics officer's report, without saying a word!
