Chapter 470

"Damn it!"

Zheng Yuanyun firmly clenched his fist.

It has to be said that the quality of his soldiers is still higher than that of Ouyang. Even after a round of shelling, after he gave the order, the archers quickly opened their bows and arrows and frantically poured out their arrows towards the city.

However.

In the hundreds of packages, in addition to the small ladders that make up the ladder, there is also a huge shield.

The soldiers who assembled the ladder were only a small part, but more soldiers found the shield from the package. The shield was held high above their heads. You can see that next to each package, they were combined into huge steel flowers composed of shields in an instant!

The steel flower has just bloomed, and the arrow rain is coming. The two sides have practiced it like countless times, and the time is just right.

For a time, sparks splashed everywhere, and the pouring arrow rain hit the giant shield. The effect was just countless dense crisp sounds. In addition, countless sparks splashed.

Zheng Yuanyun regrets!

If he had known this, he should not have ordered the archers to launch an attack. Even if the damage of the catapult at the near end is insufficient, it is still no problem to smash several shields.

As a result, a round of arrow rain went down, and only a sound was heard.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the towering ladders were finally assembled. The vanguard soldiers shouted, one by one, put the ladders on the head of Juhe City, but they were desperate to climb up with their heads buried.

"Lift it, lift it all for me!"

Zheng Yuanyun roared angrily. Lianbi led the soldiers to lift the ladder.

But where is it so easy to lift?

The end of the ladder supporting the ground is a sharp steel nail, which is deeply inserted into the ground. However, at the end of the city head, there are two barbs. Once it is built at the city head, the barb is embedded into the crack of the city wall. In addition, the soldiers stepped on the ladder to increase the weight. It is not so easy to overturn the ladder.

A soldier clenched his teeth and lifted it twice, but he couldn't pull the barb out of the crack of the city wall. When he was sweating, Zheng Yuanyun roared again:

"If you can't lift it, cut it off!"

The barb is made of refined iron. It's not easy to break it, but the ladder itself is only wooden. It's still possible to cut it with a handful of strength.

The only difficulty is that the garrison at the head of the city needs to lean out of the wall to cut the wooden part. Leaning out half of the body means giving up the protection of the wall. The vanguard below does not come barehanded.

In addition to using the siege stone tower to throw siege equipment from a long distance, the vanguard troops carry bows and arrows on their backs. No, after resisting a wave of arrow rain at the head of the city, the vanguard troops under the city also shoot with bows and arrows.

The distance between the two sides has been very close. Even from the bottom up, Ouyang's strict execution of the arrow rain here also has a lot of power. At least, the other party can't easily lean out to cut off the ladder.

For a time, Zheng Yuanyun also opened his fire, and the rolling stones and wood prepared earlier were thrown wildly under the city. In addition, although he could not lean out to cut off the ladder, there was no problem pouring fire oil along the barb and igniting it.

In an instant, Juhe city suddenly rolled up countless fire snakes from top to bottom, but the length of the fire snake was long and short.

The first wave of soldiers who climbed the ladder were not unprepared. They all wore thick deerskin gloves. The fire snake burned down the ladder. When it burned to the first soldier, it was blocked by deerskin gloves. The thick deerskin gloves not only blocked the heat, but also prevented the spread of the fire.

Although the ladder is made of wood and easy to be ignited, it is not so fragile after all. Even if it is burned, it must be burned for a while. During this time, the soldiers climb frantically and see that they are about to climb the city

meanwhile.

"Attack!"

The iron heart wants to lay down Juhe city. Ouyang's strict implementation will not waste his advantages of large numbers of troops. When it is in full swing at the main gate of Juhe City, the city gates on the left and right sides also vibrate with blood boiling drums.

At the beginning, Ouyang did not take back the one million troops after he divided his troops to attack the city gates, but distributed them everywhere as a siege.

At the moment, the main gate has started to attack, and the other two are not idle. The same vanguard troops are taking the lead, almost copying the tactics of the main gate. The siege and stone throwing tower has also been transported to two battlefields. For a time, the pressure on the whole Juhe city has increased sharply.

Zheng Yuanyun had been informed of all this, but he could only listen.

There are so many troops. He divided his troops as early as the first battle. If he can defend it or not, there will only be so many troops.

However, Ouyang's aggressive siege tactics were still more conventional. Although the cloud ladder was set up at the head of the city in a short time, the battle really started at this time.

The ladder still insisted, but the soldiers who managed to climb to the top of the city were cleaned up in a very short time. After all, Zheng Yuanyun put all his troops at the top of the city regardless of the consumption and the playing method of the soldiers' fatigue. Although the total troops are much less than Ouyang's strict execution, if they are only compared with the soldiers on hundreds of ladder, they still have a big advantage.

Moreover, it was a long time since the last wave of fighting, and the last wave of fighting was just a few shots fired by the trellis troops. There was no loss of physical strength at all.

At the moment, everyone is fierce. Even if the other party boarded the city, everyone rushed up, chopped people over and kicked them with a few knives.

For a time, they screamed and screamed in pain. Under the wall of the city, there were a lot of corpses in a short time.

Outside, Ouyang gritted his teeth and watched. In addition to secretly pushing forward the siege stone throwing tower that no longer attracts fire for the time being and preparing for fire support at any time, he had no instructions for the hand to hand combat at the head of the city.

Although I don't want my brothers in Fengqi province to shed blood on Nantes Province, since I have decided to attack the city, there will always be necessary sacrifices.

He has made the best of what he can do. Through the arrangement of siege and stone throwing tower, he ensures that the vanguard is fast in the process of charging, avoids being hit by the stone throwing machine, and minimizes the sacrifice.

As for the hand to hand combat when attacking the city, this must be faced.

In order to fight lightly, heavy siege equipment such as impact hammer did not appear on the battlefield. Even now, he was taken to the head of the city by a cloud ladder, but Zheng Yuanyun was still paying attention to his movement and would not give Ouyang's heavy siege equipment a chance to play. However, he still retained a large part of the catapult.
