Trapped in the army formation, it is impossible to send people to rescue the thousand cavalry. There are only a thousand cavalry in the whole city of Linzi. What can we do to save them?Sending infantry out of town is no different than sending them to their deaths.

More than half an hour passed, and all the thousand Liu Song cavalry trapped in the formation were there, none of them remained, and no one surrendered. Xue Tong's lieutenant, Lei Zhen, was beheaded by the Wei family.

Zhao Junsheng rode his horse and walked into the encirclement to look at the corpses and armored flags all over the ground. None of the Liu Song soldiers from the Southern Dynasty surrendered, and all of them died fighting hard.

Ancient and modern, all over the world, no matter which dynasty, no matter friend or foe, they all respect warriors, even the treacherous and vicious people are no exception.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng turned his head to look in the direction of the city wall, and ordered Gao Xu: "It's getting late, let's attack the city!"

"As ordered!"

After Gao Xu agreed, he began to issue orders to the catapult crew, and first fired stone bombs at the city wall with heavy stone bombs.

Heavy stone bombs flew into the sky and landed on the inside and outside of the city or on the top of the city with a thunderous force, making big holes, scaring the soldiers and civilians in the city to scream in horror, and the soldiers and civilians in the city screamed and fled to avoid stone bomb.

The outer wall of the city wall and the city wall were also visited by heavy stone bombs. The outer wall was smashed into pits and pits, and a large number of wall bricks were smashed into debris and fell to the ground.

On the top of the city, some soldiers were smashed into meatloaf, and the smashed gravel scattered and splashed, which still caught many soldiers. After the stone bomb attack the day before, the defenders had already adapted a little. Although these heavy stone bombs Terrible, the chance of being hit is very small, as long as it is not hit or impacted by the front, the possibility of death is very small, at most it will only be shot by gravel.

The defenders had been worried that the rain of stone bullets had finally arrived, densely packed stones fell from the sky, "bang bang bang..." The defenders put the door panels on top of their heads, making a lot of noise from being smashed by the dense stones.

The tougher and thicker wooden door panels can still withstand it, but if they are attacked many times, the door panels may not be smashed, and the soldiers below will also be shocked to death. The soldiers were killed and wounded.

635th Ballista of Liu Song Army

The stone rain is over, and the Liu Song defenders feel that they have come out of hell again, and they will survive for the rest of their lives!

Xue Tong covered his bleeding head and shouted: "Soldier, soldier, how many times did the stone rain just now? How many times?"

The soldiers were brought back to their senses by Xue Tong's yelling. Some said it was four times, some said it was five times, and some said it was six times, but most of them said it was five times.

"Five times? Are you sure it's five times? Are you sure?" Xue Tong asked loudly.

Most of the soldiers said in unison: "Yes, five times!"

"Yesterday was five times, today is also five times..." Xue Tong said to himself.

At this time, the sentinel shouted: "General, the army is ready to attack the city!"

Xue Tong looked up and saw that the dry army had really started to attack. He turned his head and shouted to everyone: "Send the order, let the soldiers on rest go up the city wall and carry the corpses of their comrades down, and the wounded also go down! Everyone else listens. Alright, get ready to fight!"

After the order was delivered, groups of soldiers on rest went up the city wall to carry away the corpses of their companions. It was inconvenient for these corpses to remain on the city wall, and the wounded soldiers quickly walked down the city wall one by one with their weapons, and their legs and feet were broken. You can only let your companions carry it down.

The iron pots for boiling water and hot oil on the city wall were all smashed by the stone rain of the dry army yesterday, and they could no longer be used. The city wall lacked two defensive methods. Now only rolling logs, bows and arrows, and stones can be used.

Xue Tong said to the newly promoted lieutenant general: "Go to the city and organize some people to gather the stones thrown by the army's catapults and pile them up at the foot of the city wall. Once the stones on the city wall are almost used up, let the people move them quickly. Stone on the wall!"

The lieutenant general said: "General, don't worry, the last general has already made arrangements, and the common people are collecting and carrying stones!"

Xue Tong was relieved, and the deputy general thought for a while and asked again: "General, the ladder that can be pushed and moved by the army is too powerful. It can rush up four soldiers at a time. It is too big a threat to our city defense. Our lifting hammer It was destroyed again, and now there is no weapon that can restrain the moving ladder, do you want to use this thing?" After speaking, he pointed to the tall tripod stand next to him.

Xue Tong raised his palm: "No, this thing cannot be used easily. If the army finds a way to destroy it or restrain it, we will no longer have the strength to defend the city. It cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary, unless soldiers They can't stand it any longer!"

The lieutenant nodded.

"Woo - woo - woo -" the horn sounded from outside the city.

The densely packed infantry rushed to the city wall with swords and shields from a stone's throw away, and the deafening shouts of killing spread all over the place.

The overwhelming sound of shouting and killing followed the ant-like generals to rush forward. Even though they had been fighting for several days, the defenders were still trembling nervously at the grand momentum and scene.

A ladder was erected on the city wall again, and the soldiers of the dry army bravely climbed to the first, one by one fearless, and there were people climbing everywhere on the ladder and the outer wall of the city wall.

A wheeled siege ladder was also pushed to the edge of the city wall, and the dry army soldiers rushed up with weapons and shields stepping on the pedals.

"Shoot me, shoot them!" Xue Tong yelled.

The archers of the defending army kept shooting arrows at the ladders and the soldiers on the city wall. Some arrows hit the soldiers, and some were blocked by the soldiers with shields.

In order to resist the fierce attack of the Gan army, the guard Xue Tong had to order to increase the number of defenders on the city wall. Within a unit area, the strength of the defenders on the city wall was doubled, which made the pressure on the defenders much less Doubled the pressure on the offensive army.

A row of well rails for the Qianjun was pushed close to the city wall, and the archers on the platform at the top of the well rails began to shoot arrows at the defenders on the city wall.

The defenders had to put their shields in front of them. Although it could reduce some casualties, it also increased the difficulty of defense, which was inconvenient for combat, and their attention was seriously distracted. There is an opportunity to take advantage of.

One

One after another, the dry army soldiers got the opportunity to rush up the city wall and fight with the defenders. The tragic hand-to-hand battle on the city wall began. The two sides fought desperately at the top of the city. Once the troops were invested, the corpses of both sides piled up on the top of the city built by the ladder.

"General, the well fence of the Qianjun is too much of a threat to us, and the brothers are about to be overwhelmed!" The lieutenant yelled at Xue Tong behind him while wielding his knife to fight.

Xue Tong, who was covered in blood, turned his head to look, and after hacking to death a soldier of the army, he ordered: "Order, push the stone cart under the city wall, and smash all the well rails outside the city to pieces for this general!"

"Obey!" A messenger agreed, and ran to the parapet wall behind him, waving the flag desperately.

When the commander of the stone cart in the city saw it, he immediately ordered the soldiers to push the stone cart to stop at a distance from the city wall, lined up, and a large number of people and soldiers carried the stones.

This catapult is different from the trebuchet, it is also called a catapult. To launch a catapult, the catapult must be fixed on the ground. The projected stone is heavy and has a long distance. It can launch, but the projection distance is short, the projectile is light in weight and small in size, and the power used by the two is different.

The stone cart also uses the lever principle to throw the stone, but instead of using gravity as the power, a large crossbow arm is installed on the cart, and the crossbow arm is chorded by manpower. projected out.

The advantage of the stone cart is that it has a fast firing speed and is easy to move. It can fire a stone bomb in a few seconds. enough.

"Crossbow arm chord—"

"Loading stone bombs—"

"put--"

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The stone bullets were thrown out one after another, and a few two or three hit the well fence outside the city that was quite high above the city wall. People fell to their deaths from high places, some people were stoned to death, and others were affected.

"Quickly step back, step back—" the archers on the well fence shouted to the soldiers below.

The curb is heavy, especially when there are people standing on it. If you want to push it and move it, you have to be careful. If you are not careful, the curb will overturn, resulting in non-combat loss of personnel.

When the soldiers below began to pile up the well curbs and retreat, the second wave of stones launched by the stone carts in the city had already smashed over. This time, several well curbs were hit, and the archers on the top platform suffered heavy losses.

The stone carts in the city fired ten rounds of stone bombs in a row. It only took two to three minutes, and nearly one-third of the curbs outside the city were lost. Fortunately, they retreated in time. All explained under the city.

Without the long-range support and containment of the well fence, the casualties of the siege soldiers suddenly increased. The defenders could deal with the soldiers climbing the ladder and the city wall with all their strength, but the wheeled siege ladders of the dry army The deployment of troops was really terrible. Liu Song's defenders dispatched reserves twice in a row for reinforcements to suppress the attacking momentum of the Qian army.

The battle lasted all day, and neither side took much advantage. Not only did the siege army lose a lot, but Liu Song's defenders also suffered heavy casualties.

At dusk, dry army camp.
