Ten huge siege fortresses slowly moved towards the city. A little ahead were the two that Yunfeng and Xun Guanniang were personally stationed at. Due to their presence, these two had the strongest offensive and defensive power. But the defenders were unaware of this.

The crisis was coming, they were suppressed by the arrows being thrown, and no one dared to stand up straight.

Although they set off at the same time, the relatively fast-moving chariot array and wooden donkeys arrived 200 steps below the city first, covering 300 personal guards and 1,200 Qiang troops. The personal guards were specialized in shooting, and the Qiang troops were

They are responsible for filling arrows, and every four people serve one personal guard.

Just after the formation was set up, the trebuchet and bed crossbow were dragged by the horses to the predetermined fighting position. The bed crossbow was stuck in the gap of the ladder. Zhuge's crossbow fired at the gap to avoid accidentally injuring his own people. After everything was prepared, he then

With an order, crossbow bolts, stone bullets, and giant arrows weaved into a dense web of firepower, which was showered on the top of the city. Yao Yisheng's Qiang cavalry took the opportunity to retreat.

Giant arrows whizzed past the top of the head, and the city stampede was jingled by the dense crossbow arrows. Occasionally, a huge banging sound from a stone bullet hitting the city head fell into his ears, which made Deng Yue scream in endless pain. He had never

Have you ever seen an attacker with such a complete range?

The firepower suppressed from all directions, but there was nothing we could do. There was no way to probe. If you probed, you would be dead! The boiling oil, wood and falling rocks that were originally prepared seemed to be useless. If this continues, the city will be destroyed sooner or later.

thing.

The Yunfeng Army's siege status was reported to Su Jun every once in a while by a dedicated person, which made him extremely envious. Compared with the fierce and raging battle on his own side, their side was orderly and orderly. From the spies' reports, he could actually tell.

There was a feeling of ease and ease. If he hadn't been unable to move away, he would have wanted to see it with his own eyes.

In fact, Su Jun could also understand that the key role was played by the cavalry flying around the city. In the past, he had never thought that the cavalry could be used in this way. It was precisely because of the suppression of the cavalry's arrows that the defensive power of the city was exerted.

It did not work as it should have, and it bought valuable time for the arrival of siege equipment.

Comparing it with ourselves, we can see how difficult it is for our side's crossbows, trebuchets, rams, ladders and other siege equipment to move forward every step. We have to face the huge threat of stone bullets and dense arrows. It can be said that.

The roads were dug out with the corpses of soldiers.

"Cavalry!" Su Jun couldn't help but muttered. At this moment, he looked forward to having an elite cavalry unit in his hands.

Judging from this situation, there is no doubt that Yun can defeat Gushu. Once Gushu is defeated, Wang Dun is also just around the corner. Master once promised to let me, Su Jun, take charge of Liyang. Humph! I must ask for it then.

Master, please bring some war horses over, and your army cannot be without cavalry!" Su Jun secretly thought about it.

At the same time, Yunfeng saw that there were only about five feet left from the top of the city, and immediately shouted: "Stop shooting!"

For a moment, the large net woven by arrows seemed to be taken away by an invisible hand in the air, and only the sound of rumbling wheels was left in the world. Then, the sound of banging against the city gate was heard. Rushing cars

Has been pushed to the city.

Deng Yue knew that the critical moment had arrived, so he immediately stood up and shouted: "The whole army..." before he could speak, he was stunned! What kind of big guy is this! A siege equipment like a cross fortress

It has moved within a few feet of the city head, and the cold expressions on the faces of the soldiers on the opposite side can be seen clearly!

The defenders who stood up were also horrified. They could swear that they had never seen such a terrifying siege equipment in their lives, and they even forgot to fire their bows and arrows!

"Fire the arrow!" Yunfeng shouted loudly without giving the defenders any chance to recover!

A shower of arrows suddenly burst out from the fourth and fifth floors of the ten-level ladder. At the critical moment of life and death, Deng Yue fiercely shouted and quickly waved his sword to block, but the other sergeants did not react so keenly. The screams from the top of the city continued.

The film sounded.

Deng Yue crouched down quickly, knowing that the situation was extremely dangerous, and shouted repeatedly: "Hurry up, take cover with the crossbow and fire, and use the flying hook to see the opportunity and crash into the car!"

As the name suggests, the structure of the flying hook is very simple, that is, a large iron hook is tied to a thick rope. It is the favorite of the gentleman on the Liang Dynasty. It is mentioned in "Mozi Preparing the Ladder", "General Martial Arts", "Records of Military Training" and "Illustrated Weaponry".

According to records, flying hooks have a long history. Until the Liberation War, flying hooks were also used many times to attack cities and sneak attacks. At the same time,

At times, the flying hook can also play a necessary role in defense. Once the attacker uses a ladder to rush into the city, if the defenders are calm enough, accurate enough, powerful enough and agile enough, they can use the flying hook to pull down or pull down the city.

Bring down the ladder. Of course, on a battlefield where rocks are raining like rain, you have to be strong enough to throw a flying hook.

Under the dense rain of arrows, the defenders did not dare to stand up. They only stretched out their arms and threw hard. Based on their feeling, if the hook was hit, the next step was to pull with all their strength!

"Swing your sword!" Yunfeng shouted again, and the soldiers stretched out their long swords from behind their thick shields to block the oncoming flying hooks.

"Plop!" There was a muffled sound, and several flying hooks were lucky enough to hook onto the ladder. The defenders were immediately overjoyed. Dozens of them rolled to the ground and pulled desperately. However, the big guy on the opposite side was slowly approaching.

Still motionless! How could a siege fortress with such a heavy weight be pulled down by just a few ropes?

Just as the defenders were exerting all their strength, "Tang!" were heard several times in succession, and the rope suddenly broke. The huge rebound force caused them to crash to the rear. Some even bumped into a frying pan and were soaked on the spot.

He rolled to the ground and wailed endlessly! It turned out that although the rope was tough and strong, it was difficult to cut it with the sword. The soldiers used a long-handled heavy saw with thick saw teeth. After pulling it back and forth several times, the rope became stretched and broke!

The speed of this new type of ladder is indeed astonishingly slow. It took such a long time to move forward three feet, and it was still two feet away from the city head. At this time, more than ten ramming vehicles of the defenders had been pushed up.

, amidst the neat sound of chants, thick hitting rods with iron leaves on the front swung straight towards the ladder!

Yunfeng immediately shouted loudly: "Withdraw the shield and lie down! Don't stop firing arrows!" He quickly stretched out his hand to remove a thick shield in front of him and spread it flat in front of him, then pulled Yu Wenjun to lie behind, and Yu Wenjun's little

Her face was red and hot with excitement. Along the way, the only thing she did was to shoot with the Zhuge Crossbow. As for whether she hit the enemy, Yunfeng didn't see it anyway.

Under the cover of the crossbows, the warriors in each ladder immediately pulled out thick shields to form a pile, and then used them as cover, lying on the back and leveling forward, and saw the thick hitting rods passing by with the sound of the wind.

Overhead, swinging towards the empty space, the front and rear ends of the ladder were connected, but the fourth floor below was not affected at all, and they all raised their crossbows and shot upwards.

Deng Yue's heart sank to the bottom. He understood that at this point, it was inevitable that the opponent would attack the city. The next step would be to enter the stage of hand-to-hand combat. He took a deep breath, raised his fighting spirit, and shouted: "The whole army is listening to the order and preparing to fight."

, I swear to live and die with Gu Dun!"

"I swear to live and die together with you!" A burst of shouting suddenly broke out from the top of the city. Although the defenders were squatting on the ground or hiding behind various equipment, they unconsciously raised their swords and guns, and everyone was ignited with blood in their chests!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" A series of muffled sounds came. The ladder had reached the city wall. The soldiers all dropped their bows and arrows and prepared to climb the city for hand-to-hand combat. Yunfeng turned around and said hastily: "Miss Yu, follow me.

, don’t run around, or I won’t take you with me next time!”

"Well! Don't worry, General!" Yu Wenjun nodded solemnly and raised a spear beside him.

Yunfeng turned back and stepped on the city first. Suddenly, several spears came straight from behind the city. Yunfeng's leg movement changed and he stepped on the shafts of two spears. "Crack!"

!" There were two crisp sounds, and the spear shaft was broken on the spot! There was a spear in his hand.

The spears were swung at the same time, and all the spears that were stabbed were knocked away! Then he stepped onto the city and stamped, and swung the iron spear again. After a sound of broken muscles and bones, Yunfeng shouted fiercely: "The one who surrenders will not surrender."

Kill!" Then he rushed into the enemy's formation like a whirlwind!

Following Yunfeng, the warriors in the ladders jumped to the top of the city one after another. The other nine ladders were also roughly the same. Some of them lacked experts to guard them, so they relied on the combined efforts of everyone to break the first round of thorns from the defenders.

Not long after, the soldiers from the lower floors of the ladder climbed to the city one after another. The city quickly fell into a melee. Yunfeng protected Yu Wenjun and led more than ten people to rush left and right. Tu's eyes were fixed! He saw Deng Yue.

It was a gun that pierced the chest of a Qiang soldier!

"Deng Yue! Where to escape!" Yunfeng shouted, and immediately spread out his body, stabbing and picking with the spear in his hand, and the bodies fell out. In a few breaths, he came to Deng Yue and stabbed him with a single shot!

The overflowing evil spirit made all the hair on Deng Yue's body stand on end. He was horrified and tried his best to block it with his gun!

With a crisp sound of "Dang!", the spear in Deng Yue's hand was shaken and flew away. The gun coming from the opposite direction did not lose its momentum and burrowed straight towards his chest like a poisonous snake. Deng Yue knew that he was too far away from the opponent, so he closed his eyes in despair.

eyes.

Unexpectedly, the spear stopped when it was pressed against his heart. Deng Yue opened his eyes unconsciously, and saw Yun Feng looking at him with a smile, as if he had been greatly insulted. Deng Yue immediately said angrily: "You are so

What do you mean? Act quickly and don’t expect me to surrender to you!"

Yun Feng suddenly shouted: "Stop! Listen to the defenders in the city. Deng Yue has been captured. Quickly put down your weapons and surrender. After I count the number of people, I will allow you to escape through the south gate. I will never break my promise and hurry up."

stop!"

This sound was like a thunder exploding at the top of the city. Both warring parties, including the Qiang army, seemed to have been hit by a time stopper. They suddenly stopped and turned to look.

Yunfeng then fired back and said with a smile: "General Deng, please be aggrieved for a moment and wait until I return the food and grass before leading the army to leave."

Deng Yue said in disbelief: "You...you really let me go?" Although he had made plans to die rather than surrender to Yunfeng, release was another matter, and he couldn't let me go.

And then commit suicide with a knife?

Yunfeng said calmly: "You and I have no grudges. It is a foregone conclusion that our army will capture Gushu, so why bother taking your life?" He pointed at the defenders again: "They all have parents, wives and children, and they are the backbone of the family. If not

How can I have the heart to destroy their family and destroy their lives if they have no choice? Please give General Deng the order to open the city as soon as possible. I will never break my promise!" (To be continued...)
