The boiling water caused a lot of casualties to the siege soldiers and dealt a great blow to morale, but the boiling water in the iron pots on the top of the city soon bottomed out.
"Cook the kerosene quickly!" Yilouji ordered loudly again, and the defenders poured buckets of kerosene into the iron pot, and the iron pot was blazing with fire.
In just one cup of tea, the kerosene in the iron pan was boiling and smoldering, constantly emitting thick smoke.
At this time, the siege archers on the well fence had already caused a large number of casualties to the defenders at the top of the city. Many defenders were suppressed and hid under the walls and did not dare to move. It has also been completely lost, and the city is full of corpses, weapons and arrows.
There are still a large number of soldiers on the siege ladder who are climbing tirelessly and fearing life and death.
"Drew fire oil!"
Following an order, the defenders scooped up the kerosene with water ladles and turned around and ran to the wall. Many people were shot and killed by arrows from the opposite well fence before they had time to pour the kerosene off.
The siege soldiers who were drenched in fire oil screamed and fell down and fell to death or injury. A large number of shouting and killing never stopped, whether they were soldiers on the city side or defending the city, screaming and killing had become their promotion. The necessary means of morale and of dispelling fear, with which they need to inspire their courage.
"Come here, replenish the archers on the well fence with arrows, pass on my order, and double the number of archers will go up, let them increase their shooting power, and further suppress the defenders at the top of the city!"
After observing the situation of the siege, Hua Mulan gave the order.
"As ordered!"
After another group of archers got the order, they climbed up the well curb one by one, and bundles of arrows were hoisted up the well curb by ropes.
The siege lasted for two hours, not only the soldiers on the attacking side were exhausted, but also the soldiers on the defending side were very tired, and the morale of both sides was declining.
When it was afternoon, Hua Mulan looked away from the city wall and turned to look at the reserve team and asked, "Have the reserve team finished their meal?"
"Return to the general, I finished eating two quarters ago, and everyone is resting!"
Hua Mulan immediately ordered: "Get them ready, they will take over the attack in a moment!"
"Yes, General!"
At this time, a big inner guard ran over on horseback and clasped his fists at Hua Mulan and said, "General Hua, Your Majesty has summoned you!"
Hua Mulan nodded when she heard the words, and galloped towards the emperor's direction.
"My minister Hua Mulan sees Your Majesty!"
"Pingshen!" Tuoba raised his hand, and asked: "General Hua, it's already afternoon time, and the battle has been going on for more than three hours, should we let the soldiers rest for a while before fighting?"
Hua Mulan clasped her fists and said, "Your Majesty, the Art of War says: If you give up your strength at one blow, then it will decline, and then it will be exhausted. If you order to retreat and rest at this time, the morale will be completely drained. At least we will not be able to fight again for today!"
Tuoba Jian frowned and asked: "Then are you sure to break the city within today?"
"This... I can't guarantee it, I can only do my best!"
He Duoluo, the general of the Habayashi Army next to him, has been at odds with Hua Mulan. Although he is a general of the Habayashi Army, the Habayashi Army was completely wiped out in the next battle at Qionglong Ridge. Now he is almost a bare general.
I saw him say aloud: "General Hua, the soldiers have been fighting for too long and are already very tired. If you continue to fight, it will only increase casualties. This general suggests that you retreat first and let the soldiers have a good rest. Tomorrow Fight again!"
Tuoba Fan, the new general of the Xiaocavalry Army, said coldly: "General Hua, these soldiers are all members of my Xiaocavalry Army. It is a mistake to use cavalry as infantry to attack the city. As long as you can break the city, killing more people is nothing. But those who died were all members of my Xiaocavalry Army, this king demands that the siege be stopped immediately, and we will fight again tomorrow!"
Hua Mulan got angry when she heard it, and retorted loudly: "You give me some infantry, you think I am willing to take over this mess? If you have the ability, you take command! Even if I haven't broken the city yet, at least until now, the soldiers and soldiers will continue to fight!" The number of casualties is far less than before, and the casualties caused to Ilouji are far higher than when you commanded the siege!"
"You..." Tuoba Fan was furious.
Cui Hao immediately said: "Okay, okay, King Le'an and General Hua don't say a few words! If the quarrel can break the city, what do you generals do?"
Tuoba Fan and Hua Mulan had no choice but to die down.
Cui Hao thought for a while and said to Tuobajian: "Your Majesty, our army has been blocked by this Wuzhou Pass for more than half a month. The time has dragged on for too long. There will be enough time for Pingcheng to dispatch troops, and there will be enough It’s time to win over the local governors and town generals! I’m worried that they may send partial divisions to attack our army from the north and the south, and it will be bad at that time!”
"As the saying goes, don't be suspicious of people, and don't be suspicious of people. Since Your Majesty has given the command of the siege to General Huwei, why not let her do whatever she wants!"
Tuobajian thought about it
, nodded and agreed with Cui Hao's suggestion, "Hua Aiqing, you can do whatever you want, I'm waiting for your good news!"
"Obey!" Hua Mulan clasped her fists and saluted, turned around and left.
When she returned to the siege army, a moment was up, and she immediately ordered: "Reserve team, attack—"
A large number of soldiers rushed towards the city wall with swords and guns. The siege soldiers who were originally under the city wall retreated one after another. Except for the soldiers who were climbing the ladder, the siege task was officially taken over by the reserve team. Under the leadership of its officers, they retreated slowly.
The arrival of this new force instantly increased the intensity of the siege, and Yilou Ji had no choice but to order soldiers to be dispatched to supplement the city wall.
At this time, the number of archers on the well fence outside the city gradually increased until it doubled. This suppressed the city head too much. The defenders became the living targets of these siege soldiers, and the city wall was almost untenable. , the defenders can only hide under the wall, but any soldier whose body is exposed has a high chance of being hit by an arrow.
This gave the attacking soldiers who climbed the ladder to attack the city another great opportunity. They finally seized this opportunity to climb the city wall one after another, and the battle for the city wall officially began.
More and more attacking soldiers jumped to the top of the city to participate in the battle, and the soldiers below the city climbed up the ladder one by one like a relay race and climbed up the city wall one by one.
Seeing the rare opportunity, Hua Mulan immediately ordered ten well fences to move closer to the top of the city, let the archers slowly withdraw, and let the sword and shield players and spearmen climb up one by one to prepare for the battle on the city.
A large number of soldiers below pushed the well fence forward vigorously, and finally a well fence leaned against the edge of the city wall, and the thick wooden springboard was smashed down and rested on the wall.
A general shouted loudly: "Go!"
The soldiers with swords and guns stepped on the springboard one by one and rushed to the top of the city and entered the defenders.
One after another, the well rails leaned against the city wall, and a steady stream of soldiers rushed from the well rails to the top of the city, and there were still densely packed soldiers climbing below.
As a large number of siege soldiers rushed to the top of the city, the siege ladder was unguarded, and the soldiers below the city climbed quickly one by one with confidence.
"It's time to launch a general offensive. The general ordered us to attack from all fronts. We promise not to withdraw our troops until we break the city today!" Hua Mulan gave the order.
Chapter 424
"As ordered, General!"
"Woo-woo-woo-" The horn of the full-line attack sounded.
Hua Mulan rushed to the city wall with a big knife and led her soldiers on horseback. She jumped off the horse, and with a big knife, she pushed aside the soldiers who stood in front of her: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
The soldiers turned their heads and saw that it was Hua Mulan, and they all backed away one after another, making way for a passage.
Hua Mulan quickly walked under a ladder, holding a big knife in one hand, and quickly climbed up the ladder with her feet in the other hand. The soldiers below saw that the commanding general went to the city to fight in person, and everyone was encouraged.
"General Wuwei—Wuwei—"
"Kill kill kill—"
The siege soldiers, densely packed like ants, climbed up the city wall behind Hua Mulan and went into battle.
Corpses, swords, and arrows were everywhere on the city wall. The screams and the sound of knives and guns clashed together. People died and were injured every moment, and every step was blood on their feet.
Hua Mulan jumped onto the city wall, and just took two steps when she encountered two defenders rushing towards her. She immediately swung her knife and cut it into four sections, approaching the tower all the way.
