Chapter 825 Nonsensical

Wang Mian, who mainly attacked the South City Gate, took 10,000 soldiers dressed like Australian natives one by one. His body was full of weeds in the gaps, trying not to be found in disguise. Although it is night and there is no moonlight, the galaxy is brilliant and there is still some visibility.

Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses crawled on the cold ground at night, like a small turtle running out of the nest and running to the sea. Slowly moved on the ground. At a distance of seven or eight hundred steps, a cup of tea could be reached, but it took nearly half an hour to hide its whereabouts.

Until 300 steps away from the city wall, when it was about to enter the shining range of the city's headlights and could no longer hide, Wang Mian suddenly ordered a charge. Suddenly, people all over the ground stood up and ran desperately under the wall in shouting.

Of course, Wan Rui would not spare the defenders of Nancheng. There were still more than 4,000 soldiers guarding the wall. When the officers and soldiers appeared, the defenders bent their bows and arrows to shoot arrows at the attacking soldiers and horses entering the range without waiting for the orders of the officers. There were still more than a dozen artillery on the top of the city immediately opened fire in a hurry. In the blink of an eye, the originally quiet Nancheng immediately became the main battlefield.

The stealth distance of 700 or 800 steps made Wang Mian's soldiers and horses suffer less than a dozen rounds of shelling. The siege soldiers and horses who began to charge 300 steps rushed into the dead corner of artillery shooting with only 20 or 30 breaths; these big guys stood at the head of the city, but the angle of the pitching was difficult to solve, entering the moat within 70 or 80 steps. They can't exert their power. As soon as they fired three rounds of artillery fire, they could only watch the siege soldiers gathered on the other side of the moat.

At this time, the archer is much more useful than the cannon. He doesn't need to aim. He just needs to bend his bow and shoot at the dense shadow. If he doesn't hit Zhang San, he will always be hit by Li Si.

A round of feather arrows poured like pouring rain on the attacking soldiers and horses congested on the other side of the moat. The moat more than ten feet wide is not easy to cross, but before the attack, Wang Shouren and Wang Mian and others made a plan. In fact, it is very simple. Hundreds of soldiers with excellent water were ordered to carry ropes across the moat. The shore pulls more than 100 ropes that can be borrowed, so that whether you can water or not, you can always pull these thick ropes across the moat.

The only problem is that in the process of crossing, they have to suffer the baptism of dense feather arrows above. Even if they put a wooden shield on their heads and form a tortoise shell-like top cover, there is no guarantee that they will not be injured and die.

From time to time, the shield shattered into wood chips under the shooting of powerful arrows above, and the hollow place was instantly shot by feather arrows, shooting the soldiers waiting on the shore that lost their cover into hedgehogs. That's all. The most casualties are the soldiers who are crossing. They have to get out of the cover of the wooden shield and struggle to grab the rope and swim to the opposite shore. Once they reach the other side, the cat under the wall is the dead corner of bows and arrows, but this road to safety is a road to death.

Countless soldiers were shot and killed by bows and arrows during the crossing. The rumbling blood was clearly visible under the torches and wind lamps above the wall. Many bodies were upside down next to the soldiers. Occasionally, dead and living people came to meet their heads and mouths, or strange eyes between life and death were also common.

Wang Mian's heart is burning anxious. Roughly estimates that in a quarter of an hour, the soldiers around him have suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and 10,000 horses have removed 10,000 troops.

But the situation has slowly improved. More than 3,000 soldiers and horses that have crossed have begun to lean the ladder to the top of the city. The defenders on the city wall have to separate some of them to deal with the climbing officers and soldiers. In this way, the density of bows and arrows that obstruct crossing the moat has been greatly reduced, and the rear soldiers and horses quickly exerted their strength to continuously reinforce the city wall. Under.

Wan Rui wanted to order the soldiers and horses at the head of the east and the city to be reinforced by the south wall, but the shouts in the darkness in the east and west did not stop. Although he knew that the other party was just a homicide, how could he know that the homage would not turn into a real attack. Therefore, Wan Rui had to stay 2,000 people each to hold on to the east and west wall, and the remaining 5,000 people quickly ran from the wall to reinforce the south wall.

When the reinforcements rushed to the head of the south city wall, when more than 8,000 soldiers and horses who were already Wang Mian crossed the moat and were struggling to attack the city, more than 9,000 defenders on the top of the city immediately blocked it. The sandstones and trees fell like rain. The attacking soldiers and horses under the city suffered heavy losses, and the screams resounded through the night sky. At every moment, dozens of soldiers fell into the pool of blood. If the city wall of Nanchang had not stood at a right angle and tilted slightly in order to increase the difficulty of climbing, and other ordinary cities would have been narrow and wide, the casualties of the soldiers and horses below would have been more serious.

Even so, the wall can't be attacked. The defenders at the head of the city are more than the soldiers and horses attacking under the city, and it is absolutely condescending. The soldiers and horses below are completely beaten. Hundreds of ladders were built up. Before climbing a few steps, they were overturned from above, followed by a round of big stones and rolling wood. Cover your head.

Wang Mian frowned in the dead corner and thought about a good strategy. Suddenly, he saw dozens of soldiers shouting and rushing back to the moat. Wang Mian shouted loudly, "Wu Wending, what are you going to do?"

The general named Wu Wending was a thousand households under Wang Mian. Hearing the words, he turned around and shouted, "Lord Wang, withdraw. If you stay any longer, it will be a death. This city can't be conquered at all. Don't kill your brothers."

Wang Mian said angrily, "Do you dare to escape from the battle?"

Wu Wending said with a sad face, "Your Excellency, the humble position was afraid of death. This is completely useless. You can't attack it at all. Why wait to die here?"

Wang Mian pulled out his long sword and said, "Wu Wending, you dare to escape from the front of the battle. Don't blame me for engaging in military law before the battle."

Wu Wen definitely didn't answer and waved his hand and shouted, "Brothers, withdraw. This battle can't be fought. If you continue to fight, everyone will die here. All withdraw with me."

Wang Mian's eyes cracked and roared, "Wu Wending, you are looking for death." After saying that, he stepped forward and cut it with his sword. Wu Wending didn't expect Wang Mian to really do it. He was stunned and felt that his neck was cold, followed by a stream of blood spewing out of his neck and fell down.

The soldiers were stunned. Wu Wending was Wang Mian's favorite general and had an excellent relationship with Wang Mian's brothers. Unexpectedly, Wang Mian really killed him before the battle. For a moment, he stood still and forgot to avoid the boulder trees falling from time to time.

Wang Mian shouted, "Why are you standing there? Why are you not clean to attack the city? See? Lord Wang Shouren has led 10,000 soldiers and horses to follow up, and the wooden materials at the head of the city are about to run out. Take advantage of their supplies to run out, brothers to kill!"

The soldiers came to their senses and saw the sound of killing in the rear. It was the commander Wang Shouren who led the last 10,000 soldiers and horses who rushed over. The artillery at the head of the city had a place to use and also made a roar; and the stones and trees falling in the sky were also sparsely scattered. Obviously, the materials stored in the city head It has been almost consumed. These people abruptly used their heads and bodies to consume the materials of the city, which shows how much the sacrifice is.

Everyone knows when to wait if you don't attack at this time? So Yu Yong rose up and took the ladder to attack. There was a battle between the city and the city. When Wang Shouren's soldiers and horses also rushed to the city, more than 300 cloud ladders were added, and more than 300 climbing points were added, which suddenly became more chaotic.

A ladder on this side had just been overturned, and the soldiers on it fell into a rolling gourd. On the other side, there was a ladder on the head of the city. The attacking soldiers rushed up with hoarse throats, but soon after, they were overturned by a ladder, and the soldiers above fell and fractured.

After being so glued for half an hour, occasionally some soldiers and horses broke through the head of the city and attacked, but were immediately wiped out. Most of the time, the siege is climbing ladders, and the defenders of the city are lifting ladders. The soldiers on both sides of the attack and defense are half dead. The upper part is tired of running, and the lower part falls to the bottom. So much later, many siege soldiers already had the little cleverness on the battlefield. They dragged the body underneath as a meat cushion. When the ladder was overturned, it fell on the body. Although it was dizzy, it was intact, which can be said to be a quick and intelligent move.

The funny scene mentioned above appeared. A team of siege soldiers were forced to the dead corner of the gate by the rain of arrows above. The gate was the most closely defended. It was full of soldiers equipped with firearms and powerful arrows. Everyone knew that the first place to defend the city was the gate, so that many generals did not consider going when attacking the city. Attack the city gate.

Before attacking the city, Wang Shouren learned that the defenders had a large number of firearms, so he judged that these soldiers equipped with firearms must be placed on the gate tower, so he did not attack the tower. Anyway, even if he did not attack the tower, these firemen dared not defend the gate.

And the amazing scene was that a soldier among the officers and soldiers who were forced to the corner inadvertently reached out and pushed the heavy gate. With this gentle push, the gate slowly slid out a thumb-sized gap. The soldier himself was shocked and quickly told the flag officer beside him the discovery.

The flag official was hit by an arrow on his thigh and was painful. He slapped him and scolded, "Don't let your mother's turtle fart and be your mother's spring and autumn dream. This city gate must be three layers of iron bolts outside, and there are iron and horses in the rear to block it. Are you crazy."

The remaining soldiers were long-eyed and sneaked to the door and pushed them. The gate was slowly pushed. The gate was dark in the gate hole, but there was no obstruction such as horses. It turned out to be an unimped passage into the city.

Several soldiers looked at each other and didn't believe this fact in their hearts. It was like walking to pick up a golden doll, pooping out the golden kelp. After making trouble for a long time, the gate of Nanchang City was not closed at all.

Think about the busy attack on the city wall with the soldiers and horses outside. Thousands of people died, but he didn't know that the gate of Nanchang was open at all. He only needed to wave his army to attack and break it. If he knew, he was afraid that a mouthful of old blood spewed out several feet, and the deaths of those thousands of brothers were too unjust. This matter really makes people cry and laugh. Get it.
