Chapter 1160 Offer the head with your own hands(1/2)
Outside Cangzhou City.
After the last crushing defeat, Yeon Gaisuwen absorbed his experience this time.
Fifty thousand troops gathered two hundred steps outside Cangzhou City.
Dozens of catapults were scattered on both sides of the army.
In the last battle, all the Eight-Nuo Crossbows were burned together.
There is no time to create it again.
Today, Yeon Gaisuwen is preparing to fight a siege to the Tang Dynasty's Cangzhou defenders with a catapult.
The only drawback is the turmeric oil they can't get.
"Master, the soldiers are all ready."
"I am willing to take the lead in siege." Huizhen rode a horse to Yoon Gasuwen and said respectfully.
Although Huizhen was pardoned by Yoon Gaisuwen last time, her miserable defeat was enough to make him unable to raise his head in the Goguryeo army.
Today, Huizhen thought about conquering Cangzhou City in one battle.
Sacrifice the shame of the day.
Yoon Gasuman looked at Hyema. Even if he knew Hyema's true thoughts, Yoon Gasuman would not let him take this risk.
In the battle of the city, the offense and defense noticed it too much.
It is undoubtedly the most dangerous to rush to the front.
Huizhen is a general under him, Gai Suwen. After conquering Cangzhou City, he still needs to be used in many places.
You can't let him die here!
"I have other uses for you, please step back." Yuan Gaisuwen said, then waved behind her.
A sturdy general came over and bowed to Yoon Gaisuwen: "Master."
"You will lead your army to break through the city in this battle." Yuan Gaisuwen said expressionlessly.
"Yes." The general took the order.
The war drums were ringing, and dozens of catapults drove to the Cangzhou city tower to shoot huge rocks.
The huge rocks hit the city tower, and the gravel splashed. The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty behind the battlements did not even dare to raise their heads.
The Tang Dynasty catapult on the city tower was smashed into a broken wood by the Goguryeo catapult.
There were too many catapults on the city tower, and it was caught by the Goguryeo catapult, so it was too late to play a role.
"Master, you can attack the city." said Goguryeo general and Yoon Gassuwen.
"Siege the city." Yuan Gassuwen ordered.
A team of tens of thousands of people pushed towards Cangzhou City with military formations.
The front was the shield soldiers, with arrows flying from the iron shield, and sparks were splashing everywhere.
But it did not cause much damage.
Obviously, in this battle, Gaisuwen put away his previous contempt.
Under the protection of the shield soldiers, the siege car slowly advanced towards the Cangzhou city gate.
In just half a quarter of an hour, we got close to Cangzhou City Gate.
"Master, the siege car has arrived at the city gate."
"Today's Tang army is a little strange, and there is not even effective defense of the city." Huizhen looked at the Tang army on the city tower and felt something was wrong.
The last time he sieges the city, the Tang army on the city tower fought back desperately.
Many people even fell down and died together in their arms, Goguryez who rushed up the city tower.
But today, except for a few strokes, the catapult cart was completely unresisted.
Yeon Gaisuwen also found the problem.
The Tang army had a big victory a few days ago, and it shouldn't be like this at this moment.
If they don’t resist, are they waiting for death?
"Don't worry, continue to attack the city and knock the city gate open." It's unclear, but this city still needs to be attacked.
The Goguryeo soldiers pushed the siege car to the Cangzhou city gate. Looking at the two-meter-high city gate, everyone was filled with joy.
Although the city gate is tall, under their siege cars, even the most solid city gate is like a layer of paper.
It's just how much time it took.
"Be careful that someone rushes out!" said the leader of the Goguryeo Captain.
The shield soldier picked up the shield to prevent the city gate from being opened and shot arrows.
The spearman held a spear and stared at the city gate with a fierce look.
The siege soldiers took five steps back and pushed the siege car hard to hit the city gate in front.
"clang--"
It is different from the usual sound of hitting the city gate.
This time it seemed to hit the iron stone.
Even if the city gate that could not be opened would at least shake slightly.
But the city gate in front of me was still motionless.
"Come again!" the captain shouted.
The Goguryeo soldiers pulled the siege cart and took ten steps back, and the rest of the soldiers also threw away the weapons in their hands.
Help the siege soldiers push the siege car together.
"clang--"
Another dull collision.
Many Goguryeo soldiers were shocked to their mouths and felt numb.
If it is a little weaker, I only feel that my arms are in unbearable.
"What's going on?" The captain was shocked.
When I ran to the front, I saw that the giant tree used by the siege car to siege the city had cracked from the middle at this moment.
Looking at the city gate again, it was obviously already sunk.
But the entire city gate was not moving at all.
"Look, General!" A soldier pointed to the ground.
When the captain looked, he saw a thick layer of brown stones on the ground. He stabbed the sword with the tip of his sword. Mars exploded from the tip of his sword and bent to the side.
The captain's face changed drastically, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
"What are they doing?"
"It has been pushed to the city gate, why not attack the city gate?"
Seeing the Goguryeo soldiers on the ladder being killed or injured, Yoon Gaisuwen was heartbroken and saw that the soldiers attacking the city gate did not move.
He was full of anger at that time.
"Master, they said that the Cangzhou city gate was blocked by a huge rock. No matter how they hit it, they did not move at all."
"And this huge rock seems to extend from the underground to the top of the city wall." The general in charge of the siege was shocked and said to Yoon Gassuwen.
Even Gaisuwen was stunned.
Is there a huge rock blocking the city gate behind Cangzhou City Gate, or is it extending from the ground to the top of the city wall?
Isn't this nonsense with him?
If they couldn't break the city gate, they kept sending people to climb?
God knows how many people will die!
