The sun rose, and the morning wind blew from afar, with a faint smell of blood. This valley was lush with grass, and all kinds of animals gathered, and it was a very lively place. After a war yesterday, everything suddenly disappeared.

Many people Baoqing and Yeli Yuqi climbed to the top of the city, and saw that the Song army outside the city had already set up a formation and aimed at the two city gates north and south. After looking for a while, the Song army did not look like they were trying to attack the city, as if they were just to block the Dangxiang army and prevent them from rushing out of the city gate.

Many people Baoqing asked Yeli Yuqi in confusion: "King, what does the Song army mean? You came back last night and said that the Song army did not allow soldiers and soldiers in the city to leave, and they would not hesitate to blood flow into a river. But they set up this formation, which was not like they were going to attack the city!"

Yeli Yuqi looked at the Song army blocking the city gate, and then looked elsewhere. He saw a large group of Song army holding the curtain and slowly approaching the city wall, saying in a deep voice: "Maybe the Song army feels that the city gate is difficult to break and wants to climb the city from the city wall."

"That's really worrying! The walls of Zhuoluo City are low and are not a strong city at all. It's a bit difficult to prevent Song Junyi from attacking the city!"

Yeli Yuqi said coldly: "So what's the difficult thing? The civilized man on the opposite side has already said to death, as long as our heads. Now we can only fight to the death, hold on to the city, and wait for reinforcements elsewhere to come. Wuzhu went to Lingzhou, and there were large troops there, and they might come to save us."

Bao Qing broke his head and couldn't figure out why the Song army was not allowed to surrender. Most of the remaining supervisors in the city came from nearby Fanluo and had no deep hatred with the Song people. Now that Yuan Hao has gone, it is normal for the remaining Fanluo army to surrender. How could he not surrender? His status in Dangxiang is much lower than that in Yelihuiqi, he dared not ask questions, and he deeply doubted his words.

Dangxiang is mixed with various systems, which is quite chaotic. The military supervisor is integrated with military and political affairs, but its status is not as high as a vassal. If there is a place where Dangxiang formally establishes a prefecture nearby, the prefecture governor will not be under the jurisdiction of the military supervisor, but will be alongside the military supervisor. Simply put, it is not a place directly under the jurisdiction of the Central Committee of the Dangxiang, but under the jurisdiction of the Military Supervisor. Most people are only equivalent to an official in a state. Yeli meets the princes, prime ministers, and thousands of miles of land around them, regardless of military and civilians, they are under his jurisdiction.

Seeing the Song army's raised high curtain still within a hundred steps from the city, Ye Liyuqi hurriedly ordered the arrow to be fired. The curtain was a thick felt poured with water, and the ones that were guarding was a bow and crossbow. Where could it be shot through? Dangxiang Bing could only watch as he approached slowly.

The closer we get, the stronger the crampedness of the curtain. The more people, Baoqing couldn't help but feel panic and said to Yeliyu, "King, what kind of way is the Song army? In the past, there were also attacks in the city, and I have seen someone using this anti-bow crossbow, but it was so huge that it almost made our entire city build. I have never seen this kind of way."

Yeli had never seen him. Thinking about it, it was just that the Song army relied on its own large population and Zhuoluo City was small, so they forced themselves to press up with this method. But after all, they still had to climb the city and go through bloody battles on the city walls. They were just to defend against powerful crossbows that could shoot far away. What practical uses could it have? It could really cover Zhuoluo City and suffocate people to death?

Seeing the curtain, it was only thirty or fifty steps away from the city. The Dangxiang soldiers on the top of the city were busy preparing to boil oil, stones and other objects. When the Song army's ladder came up, they pushed the ladder away with a fork. Both the oil, stones and stones could prevent them from getting close to the city wall.

Yeli Yuqi looked around and couldn't help but sigh: "At this time, the most useful one is the stone cannon. No matter what is behind him, as long as the stone cannon hit him, the person holding the curtain would be smashed even if he was wearing iron armor. Unfortunately, the Song army came too quickly."

When the city was built, the Dangxiang people did not think of holding the city, otherwise they would not have been here, so they went to Lanzhou City dozens of miles south. This small city was just a place for garrisoning troops and conducting trade, and there was no weapon to defend the city. There were no weapons such as stone cannons and bed crossbows that could destroy the siege equipment, so they could only watch the Song army prepare calmly.

The city does not rely on the city's high and deep ditch for defense. To be more precise, in this era, the city was just a stronghold for counterattack. Therefore, the city walls do not need to be high, and the city gates must be opened more. There must be defensive facilities such as trenches and horse faces outside. Just a city has extremely limited defense power. If you cannot attack from the city, you will be dead.

Zhuoluo City is just a nearby stronghold where Dangxiang is, and has no defensive capabilities. Moreover, the terrain limit is that there are only two city gates in the north and south. They are blocked by the Song army at both ends, and they become a place to kill them. The city does not even have the ability to counterattack.

The curtain reached nearly ten steps from the city and stopped, just in time the long weapons of the Dangxiang soldiers on the top of the city were not reachable. The bows and arrows shot out from the city were unable to penetrate the wet thick felt, so they could only watch.

Yeli's face was gloomy and said to Ren Duo Baoqing: "Go to arrange the rockets, you must burn this curtain! Otherwise, let the Song army prepare calmly behind him. If they push it up and come, how can we be prepared?"

Many people promised to make promises, and turned around and arranged to set up charcoal fires at the top of the city to prepare rockets. The felt cloth was poured in water, and there were still times when it was dry. As long as there were enough rockets shot out, you would not be afraid of burning them.

At this moment, the tower was rising behind the huge screen of the Song army, and there was one in a few steps. After another moment, someone poured water on the tower to moisten the curtain again.

Yeli Yuqi saw that his forehead was exposed, and he said sternly: "This is an open bullying of me, there is no stone cannon in the city, which is unbearable!"

Renduo Baoqing arranged the rockets, and when he came back, he stood by Li Yuqi, stared at the curtain opposite, and said, "King, the Song army will not stop watering the curtain, the rockets will definitely be useless. What should we do?"

"Don't worry, let's see what the Song army is going to do first. After all, they will still climb to the top of the city!"

In a high ground outside the city, Shi Quanbin looked at Zhuoluo City not far away with relish, putting down the telescope. Looking at the army transporting firewood and grass to Zhuoluo City like an ants behind him, he said to Xu Ping: "Master, are you really going to burn Zhuoluo City like this? Aren't you sending soldiers to the city?"

Xu Ping nodded and said, "The army has been busy all day and night, so naturally it is to burn it! There are no trenches outside the city, the gates are narrow, and the thieves in the city cannot rush out, so we can control them. Where can we find such good things? The head of the pavilion, a city, can make the siege easily reach the city, and it will naturally swallow the meat in one bite!"

Shi Quanbin was stunned for a moment and said, "I have never heard of such a way to attack the city before. The strategy is really a wonderful idea!"

"A key area connected to several roads, which controls one or two thousand miles of land, is such a small city. There are no trenches, no passes around, only two narrow city gates, and never encountered such a thing! The size of this city is only comparable to the city built by the dynasty in the Tiandu Chuanli Gangu a few days ago, but we only care about a few villages. A small town with a radius of hundreds of steps, my 50,000 troops, one man and one handful of firewood, also piled up the surroundings of the city. At this time, if people are sent to the city, they will really not care about the soldiers."

In this kind of small city, at most, a few hundred people will be sent to attack in normal battles, and one or two thousand is very important. Now Xu Ping has a 50,000 army outside the city, so there is no need to follow the normal way. Whether it is to burn the city with fire or to draw water from the nearby Karo River, you can do anything. Using fire is just a little more shocking and let the surrounding foreign ministers have a memory.
