Three hundred and seventieth chapters open the way
A young barbarian with a resolute face ran carefully through the rain and the old forest, and ran to Xu Mu.
"The General of the Central Plains, my mother said, has already dug his way under the city wall."
Listening, Xu Mu exhaled. Although the distance was not long, in more than three days, Mrs. Luan Yu was able to reach under the city wall, which shows the friendship between Pingman camp.
"Yu Wen, go and notify the armies. After an hour, with the wooden wall chariot as the first, and the heavy crossbow and ram chariot as the rear, 30,000 Shuzhou soldiers will enter the mountain road and attack Banan City!"
Yu Wen's face was shocked, he cupped his fists, turned around and walked out.
"Flag camp, wave the flag!"
Wei Xiaowu led more than a hundred people, raised the blood-stained Xu flag in the wind and rain, and kept waving it.
Thirty thousand soldiers raised their heads one after another and looked at the long, narrow and steep mountain road ahead.
"Siege the city!"
"General Xu has an order to attack Banan City immediately! Whoever gets there first will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and the general will be sealed!"
"Siege the city, march——"
Under the pouring rain, the outline of Banan City became increasingly blurry.
Leng Qiao stood in the urn well, waiting silently to hear Lei Ying's report.
This had been the case for the past two days. Worried that it was a tactic to lure the enemy, he never left the city and could only use the urn to listen to the military situation.
After all, for him, and for the entire Banan City, these urns have always been a weapon for city defense.
Captain Ting Leiying, who was listening to the urn, was still listening with his eyes closed, but suddenly he opened his eyes and his face turned pale again.
"Another tactic to exhaust the troops?"
"General Leng, a large group of troops are marching to Banan City!"
"What!"
Leng Qiao was startled, and after thinking about it, it made no sense. If he wanted to attack the city, he should have done it earlier, why wait until now.
"General Leng, the people of southern Sichuan are knocking at the gate——"
Without thinking too much, Leng Qiao hurriedly walked outside the Wengjing. He suddenly felt lucky that he had been setting up defenses at the top of the city for the past few days.
Even if the Shunan people came to attack, there should be no problem... But for some reason, Leng Qiao always felt that something was wrong.
"Defend the city! Blow the city trumpet immediately!"
"Damn Nanman!" Leng Qiao cursed and hurried towards the city. When he reached the city and raised his eyes, he suddenly lost his mind.
The mountain road extending outside Banan City is densely packed with marching figures. If the Shunan people attack the city, there will be at most more than 10,000 troops. But in front of us, at first glance, the number is not more than 10,000 people.
"General, Xu Ziqi!"
"Does the general camp in southern Shu have the surname Xu?" Leng Qiao paused and suddenly thought about something. No wonder, no wonder, the people of southern Shu were so cunning this time.
"Come here, light the beacon tower quickly! That Xu Mu from outside Shu has colluded with the barbarians from southern Shu to attack our nine counties in central Shu!"
"Damn it, how could these Xu Jiajun enter southern Shu!"
"General, the rain is too heavy and the beacon tower cannot produce smoke!"
"Send red feather scouts to report immediately!"
After taking a breath, Leng Qiao felt that his whole body was getting cold for no reason.
"Push the rolling log and smash these thieves to death!"
Sections of rolling logs were continuously hung from the wall of the urn, along the steep mountain path, grinding up patches of wet mud.
…
"Block, block!"
One after another, wooden wall trucks are arranged in a long wall formation on the long, narrow and steep mountain road.
More than a thousand Shunan soldiers roared to the sky, their hands firmly pressed against the partition behind the wooden wall.
Rumble.
Sections of rolling wood rolled down crazily from top to bottom.
Even if the wooden wall truck is thickened, even if it is muddy on a rainy day, relying on the mountainous terrain, the rolling log still plays a great advantage.
The first wooden wall truck that was smashed into pieces caused sawdust to fly instantly, and dozens of Shunan soldiers were immediately crushed into bloody corpses by the rolling logs.
From behind, a new wooden wall cart soon rolled up.
"Block, block!"
The faces of the more than a thousand Taoist soldiers were all flushed, and their footsteps left inch-deep footprints.
Not long after, another wooden wall cart broke into pieces, and hundreds of Shunan soldiers were crushed to death on the spot.
"Shunnan camp, why don't you dare to retreat!" A general raised his head and roared.
"As towering as a mountain, like my son!"
…
"Quickly, push all the rolling logs down!" Leng Qiao was horrified by what he saw at the top of Banan City. In the past, the Shunan people did not have this kind of spirit and strategy.
Under Leng Qiao's command, it was more like releasing his energy, and countless rolling logs were pushed down.
Bang bang bang.
Xu Mu stood behind the military formation with heavy eyes. The terrain of Banan City had already determined that this would be a hard battle.
I don't know how long it took for the rolling log to slowly stop.
"Shunnan camp, clear the way quickly." Dou Tong looked up and shouted with a firm face.
Afterwards, many soldiers began to quickly move away the rolling logs blocked by the wooden wall carts. After working for more than an hour, the army resumed its movement and continued to march towards Banan City.
"Lord, if not, do you want the Pingman camp to take action immediately?"
"Inappropriate." Xu Mu shook his head, "There are still 20,000 defenders in Banan City. Only by completely distracting the defenders' attention during the attack will the Pingman camp have a chance."
This time in the attack on Banan City, Madam Luan Yu's 5,000-square-meter barbarian camp was the main force to break the city, and there was only one chance. If used improperly, all efforts would be in vain.
Along the long and narrow mountain road, 30,000 soldiers began to press closer to the city gate. By this time, the wooden wall cart could no longer push through the ditch.
Fortunately, along the way up, the wooden wall truck not only blocked the rolling rocks, but also destroyed many traps laid by Leng Qiao along the way.
"Fengziying, Liedun——"
"call."
In order to facilitate the command, Xu Mu's army of less than 20,000 people has been divided into several battalions, such as Yu Wen's Fengzi Battalion, Chen Sheng's Logistics Battalion, Chai Zong's Shanzi Battalion, etc.
Now, at the forefront is Yu Wen's Fengzi camp, which has about three thousand people. After hearing the order, they all put up their shields.
Just as they approached the city gate, in the blink of an eye, there were flying arrows flying across the sky above the city walls of Banan City, whistling and falling down.
Even though the strength was weakened by the rain, it was still densely covered with the shield array of the Fengzi camp. After several rounds of flying arrows, at least seven or eight feather arrows were pierced on each side of the shield.
The soldiers of Fengziying whose shields were broken and whose bodies were shot to death were silently dragged back to the rear by Paoze.
"Leedun!"
Seeing that the infantry archers guarding the city changed camps, Yu Wen did not hesitate at all and continued to have his troops form a shield formation, slowly moving forward to cover the friendly troops behind and approach the city gate.
"Are you that first-grade commoner? A national traitor with a high reputation, who wants to seize our Shuchuan River! Can you attack this three-hundred-year-old fortified city?" Leng Qiao stood at the top of the city and pointed angrily.
Xu Mu didn't answer coldly. After calculating the distance accurately, he just raised his hand.
Behind them, a three-thousand-man crossbow battalion quickly formed a crossbow formation following the order of a general.
Before Leng Qiao could react, suddenly, the crossbowmen at the bottom of the city frantically fired crossbow bolts from the sky towards the top of the city.
One wave after another, endlessly.
The defenders at the top of the city who fought against them lost half of the camp within a short time.
Leng Qiao stared blankly, and suddenly, a trace of panic appeared on his face.
