Chapter 159 The fierce battle outside the city that puts one's life on the line!
The tattooed archers under the city wall kept firing arrows at the city. Their shooting accuracy was far inferior to that of the Qi army who shot from above, and they also had to face attacks from flying rocks and kerosene, so even though the shield soldiers were
They took cover, but still suffered heavy casualties!
In addition to throwing down large rocks and kerosene, the Qi troops on the city wall also began to drop a large number of bundles of straw. When the dry straw met the burning kerosene on the ground, it immediately burned. Soon, a fire was formed under the city wall.
A belt of fire was created that was twenty paces wide, making it difficult for the 20,000 tattooed troops under the city to approach the city wall.
Some "wind" and "water" tattoo magicians cast spells to extinguish the fire, but their wind and water could only extinguish a small part of the flames, and the magicians were constantly hit by flying rocks and sharp arrows from the city.
Quite a few casualties soon occurred.
More than a dozen ladders only brought more than 200 tattooed soldiers up the city wall, but they were forced to use them no longer due to the fire on the ground and on the ladders.
The effect of the floor truck is much better than that of the ladder.
The two thousand tattooed swordsmen in the twenty carriages all jumped to the top of the city wall. More than a thousand of them had turned into corpses, and the other eight hundred were fighting to the death with the Qi army. In front of each carriage
A fierce battle group formed on the city wall, and soldiers from both sides continued to fall, becoming new corpses. In addition, a large number of tattooed infantry outside the city were constantly climbing up the ladder behind the carriage into the fireproof wooden house on the top, and then
Jump up to the top of the city tower and join these twenty battle groups.
Because the Tattoo Army was skilled in combat and climbed quickly, although they were constantly killed by the Qi army, the number of Tattoo Army able to fight on the top of the city tower was still increasing, and the territory they occupied was also getting larger and larger.
If this development continues, it will only be a matter of time before the entire city wall, the entire Julang Pass, and even the entire Qi Kingdom are lost!
The person directing the battle on the city wall was Jiang Yuan, the supreme commander of the Qi army. When he saw this situation, he decisively ordered: the new army rushed out of the city immediately and destroyed all the buildings and carriages of the Tai army at all costs!
Without beating the war drums, the three huge and thick stone gates facing the north were opened. Fifteen thousand soldiers of the new army, who had soaked their armor with water and covered their mouths and noses with wet towels, rushed out from the three large city gates.
, ran down the steep stone steps ten feet high, arrived at the foot of Julang Mountain, and immediately started a fierce bloody battle with the tattoo army outside the city!
Because the Tattoo Army was troubled by the fire and caught off guard, and was constantly attacked by the Qi Army on the city tower and inside the city wall, the soldiers of the New Army who rushed and killed quickly approached many huge carriages of the Tattoo Army, and then
Then he used a sharp ax to chop down the brackets of the car!
The well-trained Tattoo Army quickly came to their senses, and under the command of the generals, they frantically counterattacked the New Army soldiers who were destroying giant building trucks, regardless of life and death. Although the New Army's combat effectiveness was lower than that of the Tattoo Army, due to the
His clothes were damp and his mouth was covered with wet wipes, so he was less afraid of fire than the Tattoo Army. With the help of flying rocks and sharp arrows from the city, he was able to block the Tattoo Army's bloody counterattack and get closer to more trucks.
Under the desperate cover of his comrades, a tall and powerful soldier of the new army slashed wildly at a thick wooden pillar covered with bronze skin! After he continued to chop more than a hundred times with the axe, he finally finally
Cut it off, then replace the already dull ax in his hand, and use a new sharp ax to continue hacking at another pillar. After more than a hundred cuts, the second pillar was chopped off.
At this time, the other eight large pillars of the building cart were also cut off by other comrades of the New Army. Then more than a dozen Qi troops worked together to push the shaky building cart in one direction. Finally, then,
With a sound of "Grag, Grag, Grag...Bang!", the huge truck fell to the ground, with grass and soil splashing everywhere!
But at this time, the carriage was already empty. All the tattoo soldiers inside had jumped to the top of the city wall. However, the tattoo troops on the ground had never boarded the carriage since the new army surrounded it.
Tower car.
The infantry of the Tattoo Army continued to counterattack ferociously against the New Army, and soon after, more than 10,000 Tattoo Army cavalry galloped to join the battle group outside the city. The powerful Tattoo Army cavalry caused huge casualties to the New Army.
However, with the strong cooperation of the New Yan Army in the city, more than 10,000 warriors of the New Army were still able to barely withstand the crazy attacks of the Tattoo Army, and continued to cut down the huge building carts...
When the fifteenth giant truck crashed down, the Qi army saw: More than a dozen red and black dots appeared in the northern sky. Those were the figures of flying demons!
Jiang Yuan knew very well that once these flying monsters joined the battle, they could significantly change the combat effectiveness of the two sides. Therefore, Jiang Yuan immediately ordered that all new troops withdraw into the city! Wei Wushuang hurriedly advised: "Commander, it is better to wait until all the buildings are cleared."
Destroy all the vehicles and then withdraw." Jiang Yuan frowned and hesitated for a while, but in the end he still did not take back the order to withdraw.
Hearing the sound of retreat gongs, the soldiers of the New Army outside Julang Pass quickly retreated into the city under the cover of dense flying stones and sharp arrows on the city. Some brave and fearless soldiers of the New Army were trying to cut down two more people.
They wanted to retreat a little later... They did succeed in cutting down the two trucks, but the price they paid was the tragic sacrifice of themselves and the hundreds of comrades who covered them!
When the healed black-winged raptors and flaming peacocks reappeared over the battlefield, all the new troops outside the city had withdrawn into Julang Pass, except for the more than 3,000 war dead who remained outside the city.
All the Qi troops secretly rejoiced: If these flying combat monsters had joined the battlefield half an hour earlier, they would not have been able to cut down the seventeen tower carts. If this continues, it would be difficult to defend Julang Pass; and once Julang Pass is lost,
, Linzi City, the capital of Qi State, will soon be over!
The fierce battle on the city has been going on. Although the eighteen ferocious monsters in the sky can effectively kill a large number of Qi troops, the tattooed troops who jumped from the seventeen fallen siege engines are still
The wars became fewer and fewer, and the seventeen battle groups became smaller and smaller, and finally became silent.
Subsequently, all the flying monsters joined the battle group in front of the only three remaining trucks, and together with a large number of tattooed soldiers who jumped from the three giant trucks, they slaughtered the heroic Qi army soldiers!
Due to the terrifying lethality of the black and red monsters and the high combat skills of the tattoo soldiers, the Qi army not only suffered heavy casualties, but also found it difficult to kill a large number of tattoo soldiers who kept jumping down from the buildings and cars! The three regiments at the top of the city
There are more and more tattooed troops, and they continue to expand to both sides. Some have even begun to charge into the city, trying to open the city gate.
Everyone in the Qi army knew that if the city gate was opened by the Tattoo Army from inside the castle, it would not take long for the Tattoo Army outside the city to cooperate with the attack of the flying monsters to occupy the entire Julang Pass, thus making Linzi, the capital of the country, no longer able to
There is no barrier to hold on to…
Faced with such a severe situation, Jiang Yuan realized his mistake just now. He patted Wei Wushuang's broad shoulder and said, "General Wei was right just now!". Then he resolutely ordered: the new army will attack again, at all costs.
