From Soldier To Emperor

　　 The attacks on the four walls were launched almost simultaneously. The counter-insurgency army easily placed wooden siege ladders on the walls in the first round of offensive. Richard’s deployment rate of the defenders’ bows and crossbows was too low...

　　 However, it is easy to get up on the wooden ladder frame, but it is difficult to get up to the city wall. Compared with Dashi Town, Richard's troops are definitely in a ‘full’ state, almost reaching the level of crowding!

　　 Therefore, the servant army of Semu people who climbed the wooden ladder had to face the stabbing of a spear several times above their head, like dumping dumplings, one by one...

　　 The proportion of crossbowmen in the Semu servant army is not very high. Not to mention the hit rate of the Semumen bowmen, it is simply not on the same level as the Han contingent of Datang.

　　 This is related to the fact that the Anxi Prefecture government did not pay much attention to the training of Semu people's bows and crossbows. The Datang Government did not want the Semu people's soldiers to master the art of manipulating bows and crossbows in large numbers.

　　 In the Tang Army’s foreign conquests, strong bows and crossbows were the most powerful capital in the hands of the Tang Army. Naturally, they did not want the conquered nations to absorb their war advantages.

　　 Therefore, in this siege battle, the two sides shot at each other completely, and the arrows were wiped. In fact, not many can hit the target...

　　 What really caused effective damage to the Sermen’s servant army was the fifth army battalion infantry who projected behind the dirt wall, but the fifth army battalion infantry did not stand on the narrow wall and could not see the target. The aim of the projectile was very average.

　　 In order to save energy, the fifth army battalion infantry used ordinary military bows and matching arrows seized in the official arsenal when projecting through the soil wall. This can save the fifth army battalion infantry's arm strength and the consumption of armor-piercing cone arrows.

　　 In the battle for the four walls, the Semu soldiers wearing red turbans were condescending and fighting with the Semu soldiers without the turban. What's interesting is that many of them were still colleagues a few days ago!

　　 However, on the battlefield, you can’t take into account the feelings of your colleagues. Otherwise, if you hesitate a little, you will come to the west with a spearhead...

　　 Standing on the high platform of the city, Richard watched the fierce fighting on the main gate, and felt that his recruitment and reorganization of the army was too wise. In this kind of battle, no matter how elite the army is, it cannot withstand such a tragic consumption!

There is a long platoon of supervising teams behind both sides of the siege. As long as they dare to turn and escape, the far away shoots directly with the arrow, the nearer simply picks up the knife and cuts it over. The deserters are unorganized and timid. Where there is the courage to follow Supervise the team desperately?

　　 So people who run away are often directly rectified on the spot...

　　 Whether it is the Ming army and the fifth army battalion under the command of Richard in Dashi Town, the infantry supervising team, or the Han supervising team outside the city, they are all merciless...

　　 The supervising teams of both sides carried the blood-stained sabers, and watched coldly at the fight between the people in front of them!

　　 This is the fate of the subjugated slave. Even if you become a citizen of another country, you will inevitably be sent to the battlefield and reduced to cannon fodder.

Fortunately, the Semu people have no concept of nationality. In this era, anyone's concept of nationality is equal to zero. People's cognition only stays at the national level, and the country is the emperor and king. For ordinary people, there is really nothing. Loyalty binding...

　　 There is no way to impress the hearts of ordinary people with slogans, and at most make ordinary people fearful.

　　 And the fear of ordinary civilians is actually caused by the local government. If you really want to say the emperor, ordinary civilians have no specific concept, at most they know that the emperor is the master of the government...

It is not so much a nation. In this world, ordinary people have a stronger regional concept, because there are local dialects in the same area, and communication is naturally more cordial. Even if Datang has been committed to promoting Mandarin, but the local dialects, as long as Without universal compulsory education, it will always dominate.

　　 This is also the fundamental reason why the Pioneer Battalion formed by the Semu soldiers in Gaoxiang County can bully the ordinary Semu civilians in Dashi Town without any psychological pressure.

There is no difference between the two groups of Semu people who are fighting at the top of the city in the eyes of the Han people, but they belong to different camps in their own eyes, and even many of the Semu soldiers in Gaoxiang County who are attacking continue to curse. The Semu people of the Dashi Town defenders are soil buns in the countryside...

　　 County people despise people in towns and villages, it’s a normal social phenomenon...

　　 Although the Semu Servant Army of Gaoxiang County, which was attacking the city, had the advantage in numbers, the city wall was so wide that even if they attacked from all sides, it was impossible to **** all the troops up, and the soldiers could not use it at all.

Therefore, in some areas, the Semu servants of the counterinsurgency army did not occupy much of the superiority. After the first wave was beaten back, the second wave quickly surged up, and the Han supervising team of the siege army also Instead of slashing and killing indiscriminately, after the battle damage of the current Semu servants exceeds the limit, they will also be allowed to retreat, and then top the new force of Semu.

　　 As for the Semu soldiers who have been withdrawn, they will undergo a simple reorganization, and then they will be ranked in the final offensive wave.

　　In this way, the Sermu servant army, which was divided into several offensive waves, repeatedly attacked the city wall.

However, the offensive counter-insurgency army can play this way, but Richard, who is at a disadvantage, can’t do it. The vanguard battalion has a total of more than 2,000 people. There are four walls and one wall has more than 500 people. Then subdivide several waves. How can you defend the city again?

　　 Therefore, Richard's Semu team has been forced to fight on the front line, fighting with waves of Semu attacking teams coming up!

The best situation is the battle of the city wall guard at the front gate, because there are more than 500 guilt camps. The strong men in the guilt camps have a spear in their hands. They are pushed in the front, and there are five thousand people behind. The barracks infantry was covered by arrows rain, even if there were more **** servants attacking outside the city wall at the main entrance, the waves were more frequent, and the attackers were not allowed to take the first step in the city!

　　 Looking back at the other three walls, in the mid-afternoon fighting, because the Semu soldiers of the Pioneer Battalion on the front of the city lost more than half of the battle, they had to rush into the front-line team of the Semu soldiers from the auxiliary army reserve.

　　 These are just simple reorganizations, and how much combat power can the civilians of Semu who have just picked up their weapons?

　　 As a result, although the first-line team of Semu people on the three walls did not decrease, they became weaker and weaker. In the afternoon, they were even attacked on the city head several times!

　　 If it weren’t for the Ming army camp that supervised the battle, rushed to close the gap in time, and drove off the attacking Semu servant army, the Semu soldiers on the front line had collapsed...

However, the Semu soldiers who defended the city suffered more losses, and the Semu servants who attacked the city suffered even more losses. Even if the attacker knew that the defensive force was declining, they still could not break the city. After the first day of the siege was over, the only result was It's just to leave pieces of corpses under the city...
