Because he could see clearly that in order to resist Qi's offensive, Wei's soldiers all used shields to withstand it.

As a defensive battle, the lives of soldiers are extremely important.

There are only 3 soldiers available in Liang State. How many of their soldiers can withstand their own catapults.More importantly, holding up a shield to defend is equivalent to giving up defensive tools such as wood and rolling stones.

Only being beaten and not attacking, even if he can withstand it for a while, sooner or later he will be defeated by Qi's powerful offensive.

The most important thing is, if all the people are killed in battle, who will throw things to resist the advance of Qi's army?

Since receiving the imperial decree to attack Yanzhou, Li Ji was thinking about how to make it more perfect.

If a large number of soldiers were sacrificed, even if Liangdu was conquered, he would not be happy.Because of this, he mobilized so many Thunderbolt cars and Jinglan at one time, just to achieve the greatest victory with the least casualties.

"Kill, kill!" Under the city gate, Liu Yao shouted loudly, holding the rein in one hand and the spear in the other.

Victory is so close.

The soldiers under his command had already approached the city wall, a ladder had been set up, and countless soldiers climbed up the city wall with swords in their mouths.The city wall of more than ten feet is very high. Under normal circumstances, before the soldiers finish climbing, they will be carried down by the guards on the city with ladders. The result is naturally a tragedy.

But at this moment, the Wei army in the city was too busy to take care of themselves, and how could they have the time and energy to attack the invading Huns.Everyone hides behind the huge shield as a turtle, and the archers can only seek attack positions around the gaps in the shield.

Without a suitable attack angle, the attack is equivalent to having no effect.

At this time, Xu Huang and Xu Sheng were also hiding under the shield.

However, at this moment, they are faced with an important choice.

Otherwise, just hide under this shield and be a shrinking turtle.Or just give up the shield and attack the boulders and arrows above the head, but also stick to the city and withstand the opponent's attack.

This thought only took a few breaths to find the answer.At Xu Huang's order, the soldiers abandoned the shields in their hands and began to enter the defensive position.But the moment the shield was thrown down, dozens of soldiers died side by side with their brains either from being hit by flying stones.It was the arrows shot down from the well cart, and he was shot to death.

At this moment, they only felt extremely aggrieved in their hearts.

Siege warfare has always been that the attacking side has to pay several times the price of the defending side to break the city.

But what kind of siege battle is this? It's crushing and trampling.

The most elite soldiers of the Wei Dynasty have only killed hundreds of Qi troops since the beginning of the war, but they have paid thousands of deaths.

Xu Huang and the others hid under the shield. The defensive soldiers had to beware of the huge stones attacking from above, and at the same time beware of the Huns who were already pressing on.

Both morale and mobility have been greatly affected.

At this time, the Xiongnu soldiers took advantage of the momentum and climbed up the city wall.

A city wall more than ten feet high and a city guarded by [-] soldiers.The moat was filled up on the first day, and the city wall was attacked on the first day.

This feeling made Xu Huang cry.

"General Gongming, we are defeated, we are defeated." After all, Xu Sheng was young and had little experience in battle. When he saw the Huns climbing up the city wall, he felt that the land was torn apart and there was no way out.

But Xu Huang had a flash of inspiration and thought of a way.

"Let the brethren abandon the walls and enter the city, and let them climb up."

Chapter 782

In Liang Guocheng, Xu Sheng was stunned, barely calmed down, and asked just now: "If they climbed up, wouldn't we be completely finished?"

Xu Huang shook his head and said, "The Huns haven't come up now, so they can attack the city forcibly while attacking unscrupulously. If we retreat and hand over the city wall to them, they will not dare to do that. If the stone hits them The soldiers will greatly reduce morale. So, just let them come up. Let's organize a defense line on the city wall."

When Xu Sheng heard this, his eyes lit up.

Although this method is a bit helpless, even embarrassing.But it's not a perfect solution.

When they made a decisive decision, they immediately mobilized their troops and horses to give full play to their advantages.

The changes on the top of the city naturally did not escape Li Ji's eyes.Although they were separated by more than ten miles, the appearance of Xu Huang and Xu Sheng could be clearly seen with a telescope.

Seeing them voluntarily abandoning half of the city wall, Li Ji couldn't help but a little bit of surprise flashed in his eyes.

But the surprise is the surprise, but he doesn't care much.

However, Xu Huang's treacherous plan has also come true.In order to avoid excessive casualties of the Huns, it affected the fighting spirit.Li Ji could only order the Perak Che to stop the attack.

But this does not mean that the Qi army's advantage is lost in this way.On the contrary, after the defensive power of the city wall and the aggressiveness of the thunderbolt chariot offset each other, the next step is the quality of the soldiers of the two countries.

The Qi army did not have a thunderbolt car, but they still had Jinglan.

The soldiers above the well kept firing arrows. The closer they were, the more precise the Qi army's offensive would be.

Wei Jun had just avoided the stones, but Qi Jun's Jinglan had already reached the city gate, and after a fierce attack, all their advantages disappeared.

Seeing this, Li Ji's eyes flashed decisively, he got off his horse, came to the generals who were shot by arrows, looked at all the generals behind him and said: "The army is all pressing, I want to see Xu Huang's [-] soldiers and horses." How long can it resist."

"Promise!" The generals promised, and they commanded the various ministries to launch a general attack.

The soldiers of the Qi army rushed up like a tide, and with the help of Jing Lan's abnormal ability, the tall city wall in front of them was completely flat, without any threat at all.

Qin Qiong, who was at the forefront of the attack, gave an order and roared: "Rush!" With a loud roar, thousands of soldiers were ready to go, and went directly to the city to kill.

On the top of the city, there is an army of Qi State with extremely strict military discipline and aggressive offensive.On the other side is the Wei army who has already lost half of the city wall and is about to fight a bloody battle with the Qi army at the top of the city.

The two armies fought bloody battles on the head of Liang Guocheng.

In this battle, the world was colorless, and the sun and the moon had no light.

Starting from the early morning, a full hour was killed.Hot blood almost stained the entire city wall red.The shocking cry of killing made the people in the city hug their families and hide under the quilts trembling.

Even though Xu Huang kept retreating, he used his advantages to the peak.But in the end, Qi's army has the upper hand. No matter how powerful Wei's army is, Wei's soldiers are several times more than theirs.Even more fierce generals are like clouds. Under their leadership, the soldiers are also extremely brave, and the blood and courage they possess is the best in the world.

Amidst the sound of heavy war drums, more and more Qi troops were on the top of the city, and even the banner of the Qi army was planted on the city of Liang by the soldiers.

On the other hand, there are less than 2 people left in Wei's army. More than [-] soldiers were completely wiped out in this one-hour fierce battle.

These are not newly recruited soldiers, but the main force of Wei State, the elite of Cao Cao back then.

"General Gongming, let's retreat quickly!" Xu Sheng was stabbed three times, and all the guards around him were also damaged.

At this moment, it seems that the defeat has been decided.Xu Huang, as the general of Wei Guozhengdong, the main general of Yanzhou, if he was lost to Liang Guo, then the other counties of Yanzhou would be leaderless, and by then, the battle line would collapse.The Qi army will march thousands of miles, and the front of the army will reach the hinterland of Wei State.

"In today's battle, you and I guarded Liangdu with an army of [-], occupying an absolute advantage, but we were completely killed in the first battle. Even if we fled back to Chenliu and Luoyang at this moment, how could we face the emperor. "Xu Huang also looked extremely embarrassed, the armor on his body was also stained red with blood, and the golden helmet that Cao Ang personally rewarded on his head was also missing.

It's not that the Wei army did not fight to the death, but that Qi is too strong.Even though they tried their best to launch a counterattack and try to crush the Qi army down the city, it was a pity that they all returned in vain.

Xu Sheng smiled bitterly and said: "This battle is not the general's crime. It's because Qi is too strong. The flying stones on the head are like falling stars, and the soldiers are afraid. How can we fight? The general has no choice but to give up half of the city wall. .Now we are completely defeated, and we are still invincible. I believe that even if we lose Liangdu at this moment, His Majesty will not blame us. If we don’t leave and the performance collapses, it will be a failure of His Majesty’s trust!"

What Xu Sheng said was true.If there is no catapult, even if there is a well.It is impossible for Qi to break through the city wall so easily.
