"General, you are here, I can rest assured now!"

Chen Xian went back and hacked to death an Allied Army soldier, dragged the injured Wang Yue to the tower, and then quickly came out to command the battle.

At this time, a large number of Confederate troops had already rushed under the city wall, and some Confederate soldiers had already climbed up the city wall and were fighting the defenders.

"Concentrate our forces to kill all these people, and defend them all, and kill those who take a step back!"

Chen Xian roared and joined the battle group. Under his leadership, the soldiers who brought reinforcements quickly killed all the allied troops before they boarded the city.

Looking outside the city again, the dry army has already dispatched well rails and telescopic wheeled siege ladders, and a large number of infantry are still following. Once the dry army's well fences and telescopic wheeled siege ladders are pushed to the edge of the city wall, The dry army can deploy a large number of troops to climb the city wall, and then it will really be powerless.

"Get the tinder ready, get the torches ready!"

Just as Chen Xian finished deploying, the city wall cadres had already pushed the well fence and the wheeled telescopic siege ladder over. The dry army archers on the well fence began to shoot arrows at the city wall, and the defenders immediately blocked it with wooden boards.

The commander of the archers of the dry army saw that it was of little use, and he wasted arrows to support the enemy. He immediately ordered the well fence to be pushed to the edge of the city wall to release infantry, and the wheeled telescopic siege ladder behind was also pushed over.

"Get ready, fire oil tank ready"

Following Chen Xian's roar, the defenders held a fire oil tank and raised it up to aim at the well fence and siege ladder leaning against the city wall.

"Smash me!"

The soldiers smashed the fire oil cans on the siege ladders and well rails one after another, "Kang Dang, Bang Dang", the fire oil tanks were smashed one by one, and the kerosene was sprinkled on the siege ladders and well rails, as well as the allies who were about to climb up the city wall. soldiers.

"Throw the torch!"

The torches were thrown out one by one, and all the siege ladders and well rails were burned up. The fire was about to engulf the entire city wall, and many soldiers were also on fire.

Su Ji, who commanded the battle in the distance, stared blankly at this scene, "It's over, it's over!"

Chapter 1017

"Back, back!" a general shouted waving his arms under the city, ordering his soldiers to retreat quickly to get away from the burning well curb and the wheeled telescopic siege ladder.

Some soldiers of the Confederacy Army who were stepping on the siege ladder trying to rush up the city wall were engulfed by the fire, and all the well fences were also burning. The soldiers on the well fence screamed in horror, and some jumped before the fire spread to the top. If you go down, you will either die or be disabled. Some who dare not jump can only watch the fire devour themselves.

In order to make the fire burn faster and bigger, Chen Xian ordered his soldiers to throw a second wave of kerosene tanks. The kerosene used by the defenders was not easy to burn, but it was attached to wooden siege ladders and wells. It is easy to burn on the fence, and the burning siege ladder and well fence burn more vigorously after adding kerosene, and the fire is bigger.

Under the city wall, there are burning people screaming and rolling on the ground everywhere. Their heart-piercing screams make people feel like they are in hell.

"Fire the arrows" Chen Xian gave the order to attack with a cold face.

The archers of the defending army on the city wall drew their bows and shot arrows at the Allied Army below the city. Arrows rained down one after another. The Allied Army soldiers who were too late to get out of the range of the bows and arrows suffered heavy casualties, and many of them collapsed and retreated without orders.

In the Qianjun army formation, the lieutenant general said to Su Ji: "General, the siege equipment has been burned. It is better to withdraw the people at this time. The soldiers stayed under the city and were attacked by bows and arrows. They suffered losses in vain and hurt their morale. Now Only a few people turned around and fled, if there is a large-scale rout and retreat, it will have a great impact on military discipline!"

Su Ji came back to his senses, his face was a little gray and defeated, he raised his hand weakly: "Send Ming Jin to withdraw the troops!"

"promise!"

"Dangdangdang" A clear and crisp gong sounded, and the soldiers of the Allied Army under the city turned around and ran away as if they had received an amnesty.

The corpses of the soldiers who died in battle were no longer cared about. The burning siege equipment was still burning on the edge of the city wall. Many corpses were burned in the fire, emitting an unpleasant stench.

"Great victory!" Someone on the city wall raised a weapon and shouted suddenly, as if to vent the depression and anger of being passively beaten for so many days.

Other defenders also raised their weapons and shouted, "Big victory, big victory, big victory!"

In front of the army formation outside the city, half an hour later, the lieutenant came over to Su Ji in a low mood and reported: "General, more than [-] people have been lost, and they were all burned to death!"

Su Ji's eyes widened, and he shouted in pain, "Why are there so many?"

"General, there are fifty well fences and fifty siege ladders in total. There are as many as 15 people on each well fence, and as few as eight people. The risk of jumping down in time, but most of them broke their legs and feet, and the others failed to escape in time, all of them were buried in the sea of ​​fire, and some soldiers were burned to death on the siege ladder."

Su Ji suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of donated blood, before falling backwards.

This sudden situation shocked the lieutenant general and the soldiers around him, and they immediately supported him and shouted eagerly: "General, general!"

The lieutenant general and soldiers rushed to support Su Ji to lie down, and quickly called the military doctor for rescue.

This siege battle was planned by Su Ji for a long time, and he made a lot of preparations. He almost moved over [-]% of the heavy siege equipment. He didn't expect that the whole plan would be killed by the defenders just after the battle started. Well, the well rails and wheeled retractable siege ladders used for close-range siege and projecting troops were completely burned down by the defenders.

In addition, when Su Ji heard that there were 800 casualties, this made him anxious, and the blood rushed to the top of his head and passed out on the spot.

After some rescue by the military doctor, Su Ji was finally revived. He struggled to stand up and gave the order in frustration: "Send the troops back to the camp!"

The lieutenant general saw that it was less than an hour before the siege began, so now?How to explain to the emperor?Seeing that Su Ji seemed to have lost his fighting spirit, he hurriedly said: "Don't be discouraged, general. So what if the retractable wheeled siege ladder and the well fence were burned? Our army still has siege ladders and a large number of trebuchets. The last general This is to regroup the offensive and personally lead the troops to attack the city!"

Su Ji shook his head and sighed: "Now the morale of our army is completely gone and the morale of the defenders is high. Even if you smash down all the walls, our soldiers will be powerless to attack. Let's order the troops to return to the camp first, and we will make further calculations in the future!"

Seeing that Su Ji couldn't be persuaded, the deputy general hesitated and asked: "How can the general explain to His Majesty?"

"If you make a mistake, you will naturally have to pay the price. The rudeness in this battle is my fault alone, and it has nothing to do with you. I will plead guilty to Your Majesty and bear all the responsibility!"

The lieutenant general shook his head and said: "The general is too far-fetched to say this. This siege plan was discussed by the general, the last general and others. Now that the siege plan has failed, the general cannot be held responsible alone. It is better for us to share the responsibility." It is much better for the general to bear alone!"

At this time, the feint attack on the east wall was in full swing. Although the attacking allies were still at a disadvantage in terms of the overall situation, they had already fought a lot with the defenders on the wall.

In order to defend the city wall, the defender Ye Tongzhang had to increase his troops on the city wall to participate in the battle every half hour or so. The battle for the city wall lasted for an hour before it was considered to be able to suppress the offensive of the Allied Army, and the Allied Army who stayed on the wall to fight The number dropped sharply.

Some were pushed off the city wall, some were killed, and the accommodating defenders continued to invest in troops, and the number of allied troops on the city wall became less and less.

At this time, thick smoke rose from the sky towards the north city wall, and a lot of screams came faintly.

"Your Majesty, look at the north wall!" General Li Bao shouted, pointing to the northwest.

Zhao Junsheng had already seen it, and he frowned, feeling a bad premonition in his heart, and shouted: "Li Bao, quickly send someone to check what happened!"

"promise!"

A fast horse galloped towards the Qianjun formation outside the northern city wall.

Zhao Junsheng looked at the Concorde Army on the opposite east wall, and it seemed that they were about to be unable to hold on. The ability to project troops close to the siege ladder was too poor. If it hadn't been for the coordinated tactics of infantry and projectiles, they would have projected part of their troops to occupy some of them. In the area of ​​the city wall, it is impossible for the Xie Congjun to persist on the city wall until now, and it is even difficult to attack the city wall. Often, one by one dies when they go up.

Zhao Junsheng thought about it, and ordered: "Order the siege battalion to dispatch the wells!"

Li Baodao: "Your Majesty, there are only a dozen well curbs here, isn't the number too small?"

"It's okay, we can't watch the soldiers on the city wall being killed by the enemy, let's dispatch the well!"

"promise!"

After the order was issued, the soldiers left over a dozen well fences were pushed towards the city wall. Halfway through the journey, the knight who was sent to spy on the disappearance came back.
