"Boom, boom, boom..."
The cupping jars quickly fell to the ground under the attention of the soldiers of both armies. This time, the accuracy of the calibrated Chinese trebuchets was significantly improved, and nearly half of the cupping jars hit the city accurately. After landing on the ground, a large amount of viscous liquid splashed out, and then suddenly burned. Everything touched by the viscous liquid was burned fiercely, whether it was people or objects. In an instant, the entire city was burned. His head suddenly became a mess.
"Damn it, how could it be like this? Quick, put out the fire with water, water it, water it!"
Wan Tao was very lucky. Several of the guards who followed him were burned into flames, but he was not the only one who was fine. He could see many soldiers on fire as the flames on top of the city soared into the sky. Wailing and running around in the west, Wan Tao's face suddenly turned pale, and he started shouting in fear.
In a normal sense, water is the nemesis of fire. In order to guard against Youzhou's military attack, there were dozens of large water tanks filled with water on top of the city, and there were also many ladles. Following Wan Tao's order, Many panicked soldiers rushed to get ladles to fill with water to put out the fire, but something strange happened. A large ladle of water was poured on the soldiers who were on fire, but they failed to put out the fire. Not only that , the effect of pouring it on the city defense equipment was also the same. The defenders at the top of the city were all frightened by such strange things, and the soldiers who were on fire were wailing and rolling on the ground. The entire city was in a state of chaos. in the chaos.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Before the defenders at the top of the city could figure out why the water couldn't extinguish the fire, the hundreds of light trebuchets of the Youzhou Army that had finished loading opened fire again. In an instant, more than thirty groups of conflagrations were created on the top of the city. Many of the soldiers who were affected were burnt to ashes. Now all the garrison soldiers all over the city were frightened. Who dared to stay on the city head to wait for death? They all huffed and puffed along the stairs. Dao fled towards the city, and even Wan Tao, the general, was no exception. Soon, except for some seriously injured Pyro soldiers still wailing, the city was empty.
"Beat the drums and order the vanguard to attack the city immediately!"
Seeing that the garrison at the top of the city was really defeated by the homemade Molotov cocktail he made, Gongsun Ming couldn't help but reveal a smile of relief at the corner of his mouth. Gongsun Mingke spent a lot of money on the Lotov cocktail - whether it's the special thin-skinned ceramic jar, the half-full alcohol inside, or the maltose mixed with the alcohol as a thickener, it's all tinkling. In order to test this siege weapon and find the most accurate formula, the materials lost in the past few months are worth thousands of five baht at least. Now, finally, with this After scaring away the defenders, all the losses were obviously worth it.
"Dong, dong dong..."
Following Gongsun Ming's order, the dozens of drums lined up in the central military office rang loudly again, and the three thousand infantry soldiers who were already in front immediately shouted and ran out, rushing to the Dozens of ladders were placed on both sides of the moat, and the soldiers who followed quickly covered them with wooden planks. Nearly twenty simple pontoon bridges were formed. In addition to a thousand archers lining up beside the moat, they pressed down. Outside the position, the other two thousand soldiers carried the ladders and rushed across the moat at high speed. Soon they saw the ladders rising high and leaning heavily on the city head. At this time, the incendiary bombs on the city had already However, it burned until it was about to be destroyed.
"The thief army has robbed the city, the thief army has robbed the city..."
Just as the ladder of the Youzhou Army approached the top of the city, a soldier of the Liaodong Army who cautiously poked his head out from the entrance of the ladder suddenly realized that something was wrong and hurriedly shouted at the top of his voice.
"Go to the city, come to the city quickly, anyone who dares to delay will be killed without mercy!"
Hearing something wrong, Wan Tao, who had already organized his soldiers, immediately became red-eyed. He saw him waving the sword in his hand wildly, roaring at the top of his lungs, and urging his soldiers to rush to the top of the city.
Although Wan Tao's general issued the order in time, it was a pity that it was too late. This was because there was a suicide squad member standing at the top of the more than 20 ladders of the Youzhou Army, and among them was the commander of this vanguard force - - General Zhang Biao, when the ladder hit the city plate hard, Zhang Biao and the other 22 warriors used this momentum to climb over the city head, and all rushed towards the ladder entrance next to the city gate tower. He rushed over, just in time to block the Liaodong Army soldiers' move to the city. The two sides immediately fought fiercely. In the shadow of swords and swords, many soldiers from both sides fell to the ground howling miserably. When the superior strength could not be deployed, another Without the geographical advantage, even if the soldiers of the Liaodong Army were forced by Wan Tao to rush upward without fear of death, it was a pity that they could not break through the interception of the Youzhou Army's death squads for a while.
The way of war often strives for the first opportunity. Even if the Youzhou Army's suicide squad suffered heavy losses, more than half of them fell down in less than a cup of tea. Even the vanguard general Zhang Biao was already dead. He was hit twice in a row, but he succeeded in buying the most precious time for the follow-up troops to board. As more and more Youzhou Army soldiers rushed to the top of the city along the ladder, the defenders' attack gained momentum quickly. Not only that, but the soldiers of the Youzhou Army who had been killed rushed to the staircase in one breath, and the fierce battle had moved from the top of the city to near the city gate.
"Don't retreat, come on, kill me!"
Seeing that his soldiers were retreating steadily, Wan Tao immediately became furious. He raised his sword and killed several defeated soldiers who escaped from him, trying to control the situation that was about to collapse. Unfortunately, he was defeated like a mountain. , his efforts were of no use. Not only did he fail to stop his own defeat, but he attracted Zhang Biao's attention.
"Thieves, die!"
Zhang Biaoji killed nearly twenty Liaodong Army soldiers one after another, and he himself was hit three times in a row. His body was dripping with blood, as if he had been fished out of a sea of blood, but he still persisted. Fighting on the front line, he led his troops to continuously charge forward. When he discovered that an enemy general in the rear of the Liaodong Army was yelling at him, Zhang Biao immediately became energetic and led his personal guards to fight desperately. He charged forward wildly and quickly rushed in front of Wan Tao. Hearing his roar, he slashed out with a sharp slash and struck Wan Tao's neck with great force.
"Ahhhh..."
Seeing Zhang Biao rushing towards him like a devil from hell, Wan Tao was already frightened before he even started to fight, but he was not willing to sit back and wait for death. He took a big step forward to meet him, and with a strange scream, he also He also struck a brutal blow...
