Gui, Yu Sui and others stood in the square formation, surrounded by Qin soldiers.
"In which square do you think Yan will be?"
Zhuang Jing turned to look at Liang Lang and others and asked.
"have no idea."
Yu Sui stood on tiptoe and took a look around. He found that except for the countless Chang Ge and Qin Qi in front, he could not see anything else.
"The phalanx should be near us."
Liang Lang said.
Just as he finished speaking, Liang Lang quickly shut up when he saw the phalanx generals in the distance looking over.
Yu Sui, Zhuang Jing and others also quickly stood up straight.
Dong dong dong~!!!
Accompanied by the sound of drums.
Yu Sui and others listened to the sound of war drums and felt their hearts beating out of their chests. Looking at the city in the distance, they all knew the meaning of the drum beating.
We are preparing to attack the city!
Thinking of this, Yu Sui and the others, who were participating in the war for the first time, held their breaths and felt uncontrollable nervousness.
The front of the army.
Bai Yan also heard the war drums ringing at this moment.
Bai Yan naturally understood the meaning of this. He took a look at the vast Qin army behind him, and then a "gentleman" recruited from the front had already prepared the ladders for siege.
Bai Yan counted them, there were thirty in total.
Seeing such a number of ladders, Bai Yan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the huge city in the distance.
The more siege ladders there are, the safer it is.
A general and hundreds of guards quickly ran to the ladder carrying buckets of mud and water.
"Quick, quick!!"
At the general's urging, a "guard" poured buckets of muddy water on the ladder and the wooden frame of the canopy.
Bai Yan saw this scene and knew that the mud and water were used to prevent the ladder. Before he could get close to the city wall, he was burned down by the enemy.
After a while.
Bai Yan soon heard the drums beating faster and louder among the Qin army behind him.
Apparently several more war drums were beating.
Dong dong dong dong~!!!!
Bai Yan listened to the increasingly rapid beating of drums in his ears, and his breathing became a little rapid. Looking at the tower in the distance, he felt his heart beating very fast.
He knew that the sound of drums getting louder and louder meant that the city was ready to be attacked.
Recalling General Yu's previous instructions, Bai Yan distanced himself from the other early soldiers to ensure that he would not be crowded later.
A general was standing in front of Bai Yan and others, listening to the beating of drums, and looked up at the Qin army, as if he was waiting for something.
After a while, a messenger in the distance, holding a command flag, came here quickly on horseback.
"The general has an order. Attack the city!"
Accompanied by the words of the messenger.
Bai Yan looked at the city wall in the distance and listened to the words of the messenger. He couldn't help but feel his thoughts and tightened his grip on the Qin sword in his hand.
"Set off!!"
The general turned his head and shouted to Bai Yan and others.
Bai Yan listened to the general's order, looked at the towering towers in the distance, and took the lead in running towards the ladder.
DONG DONG DONG DONG!!
The sound of beating drums filled his ears. Bai Yan took the Qin sword and quickly ran to the back of a ladder in the middle among thousands of advanced soldiers.
Next to the ladder.
A general pulled out his Qin sword and shouted.
"push!!"
Follow the general's words.
In an instant, countless Qin soldiers standing beside the ladder began to push the ladder towards the city tower.
Bai Yan also pushed the ladder together.
Behind Bai Yan, among the Qin army, a phalanx of bows and crossbows and a phalanx of infantry gradually moved towards the city wall.
In the wilderness outside Yangcheng.
Bai Yan was pushing the ladder behind him, and looking through the gaps in the ladder, he watched the city wall in the distance getting closer and closer.
Ten steps, fifty steps, a hundred steps.
As we get closer and closer to the city wall, the figures on the city wall become clearer and clearer.
At a distance of four hundred steps.
Suddenly, Bai Yan saw countless black shadows flashing past on the city wall. Remembering General Yu's words, he quickly pressed his body against the wooden board of the ladder.
next moment.
Bai Yan saw thousands of arrows falling all around like rain almost instantly.
"ah!"
"Ah~save me!"
The screams kept coming, and countless soldiers fell to the ground after being hit by arrows.
As Bai Yan continued to push the ladder, he looked at the soldiers who were lying down and wailing. He saw that the soldiers' faces were pale, their eyes were full of despair, and they all had one or two arrows stuck in their bodies.
Bai Yan knew what it meant when an arrow fell to the ground on the battlefield.
But now, no one dares to save them from the enemy's arrows.
As the ladder got closer and closer to the city tower, an endless stream of arrows were fired from the city tower. Arrows flew around Bai Yan one after another, and then were inserted into the ground.
The ladder in front of Bai Yan was filled with dense arrows.
Some flaming arrows also began to appear at this time. When those flaming arrows were inserted into the ladder, the first thing that burned was not the ladder, but the arrows inserted into the ladder.
Not far behind Bai Yan, thousands of Qin soldiers, under the general's instructions, also raised their crossbows and fought back against the Korean soldiers on the tower.
Boo hoo hoo~!
In an instant, thousands of arrows were shot at the tower.
If the goal of the Korean soldiers on the tower is to destroy the ladder and the dragon, then in addition to shooting the Korean soldiers on the tower, the more important thing for the Qin soldiers is to cover the ladder as it approaches the tower.
Although the Qin soldiers holding crossbows all stopped to fire arrows, the infantry still followed Bai Yan and others towards the tower.
If those thousands of infantrymen rush to the city tower later, they will follow. And if the first soldiers who compete for the "first achievement" are all killed in battle, as long as the drums of retreat do not sound, they will follow.
Also attack the city.
However, these infantry are undoubtedly much less dangerous than those who compete for the first victory.
After all, they were not the enemy's main targets, and even when they climbed the city later, either the soldiers who climbed up first were already fighting on top, or all the soldiers who climbed up first were already dead, and the enemy troops on the towers were far from as fierce as before.
No matter which one it is, it is very beneficial to them.
Besides, if it's the latter, they might be able to get a bargain if they can pick up a 'first to the top'.
for a long time.
The flaming ladder finally came close to the tower under the rain of arrows.
Bai Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but he also understood.
The most difficult and dangerous thing about siege is not the rain of arrows, but the danger you face when climbing the ladder, and the countless enemy soldiers you have to face after climbing the tower.
"Siege the city!"
The general ordered.
Bai Yan took Qin Jian and came to the ladder.
Because there is only one first achievement, and the others are all secondary achievements.
Therefore, before Bai Yan, there were countless soldiers climbing up the ladder. They all wanted to be the first to rush to the tower.
Bang~!
Following a loud noise, Bai Yan soon saw a wooden board covered with sword blades falling from it.
Along with them, the soldiers who climbed up before were also lying beside the ladder in pain, covered in blood.
"ah!"
Bai Yan was looking at the soldier when he suddenly heard a tragic cry. Before he could even raise his head, he felt something small fall on his neck.
Bai Yan felt a twinge of pain on his neck, gritted his teeth, did not make a sound, and did not dare to raise his head.
These are fine sands that have been burnt by fire. Once these fine sands fall into your eyes, let alone what will happen in the future, even on this battlefield, being blind is almost equivalent to losing your life.
Hearing the screams of the soldier who climbed up the ladder, Bai Yan saw that the soldier fell heavily onto the ladder.
Bai Yan was a little lucky that he didn't let Liang Lang and others come. This siege was like risking one's life and narrowly escaped death.
now.
As time passed, I saw there were people in front of me.
Bai Yan was vaguely worried, even a little anxious.
There is only one person who can make the first climb, and with more than twenty ladders stuck together, sooner or later someone will rush up.
"superior!"
After waiting for a long time, he finally heard the general asking him to go up.
Bai Yan heard the general's words, pulled out the Qin sword in his hand, and climbed up the ladder.
