Xiaoshuai planned to build a railway on the west coast of the Caspian Sea and sightseeing monuments. At the same time, Muaweiye led a 40,000 reinforcements to Taixifeng.

Now Taixi has closed down the city and nearly 100,000 troops have gathered.

The Great Xia Army, including Xu Hao who arrived later, had a total of 40,000 troops. In addition to Muaweiye's 40,000 troops, Abu led 16,000 troops, Liao Hairong's 2,000 artillery soldiers, and Gordon's more than 1,500 musket team.

Thirty thousand Persian volunteers were sent to guard the place by Shao Shude, from Mosul to the vast grain-producing area in the Mesopotamian Basin in Basra.

As for the 20,000 logistics reserves sent by Mr. Luo, they are not considered soldiers.

After more than a month of bombardment, Taixifeng's originally solid city wall was covered with scars and cracks everywhere. The morale of the defenders in the city was extremely low, and it was finally time for the general attack.

Abu was arranged by Shao Shude to stay honestly on the east bank of the Tigris River to prevent the enemy from escaping from there.

The Great Xia army gathered under the semi-circular city wall on the east, which should be difficult to chew here, and gave a section of the fence on the south to Muaweiye's army to attack.

The war began with the bombardment of artillery soldiers, and 320 cannons were bombarded together, and the scene was spectacular. The shells were all flowering bullets, and the enemy did not dare to stand on the city wall, and cats were trembling behind the city wall.

By the end of the shelling, fifty ladder trucks had been pushed under the city wall.

Because there were no enemy bows and arrows on the city, the jumping soldiers who built bridges on the moat with wooden boards did not suffer any loss, which made them very unhappy. Without losses, there would be no contribution. Seeing that the war was over, the jumping soldiers who had no contribution would still go to the slaves to atone for the sins of that year.

When the time was closed, the tide of the tide was a little more logical. Because time was tight, it only created the simplest ladder, allowing the servants to carry it forward. The thing had no defensive function, and the cost of ants attacking the city was very high.

The Daxia army has been besieging the city for more than two months, so there is time to build a precise and sturdy ladder truck.

This thing has six wheels, and the square space for hiding soldiers underneath is a wooden shelf and an iron sheet. The ladder is foldable. If you untied the upper part of the ladder, you can erect the ladder without tying the rope at the back of the car.

This kind of cloud ladder is much stronger, and it is very difficult for those who guard the city to push down the cloud ladder by manpower.

As soon as the shelling stopped, defenders immediately emerged from the city. Raindrop-like grenades hit the cart. Most of the jumping troops who were pushing the cart were injured, while the ambushed troops in the cart were safe and sound.

The Jumping Army is composed of prisoners of the Great Food. They don’t care about losses, they just come to work hard. Only with the chance of fighting can one become civilians be liberated, which is better than being exhausted in mines and construction sites.

The ladder was immediately raised, and the army jumped and the back of the scimitar was reversing, and began to climb up. When they attacked Avas, they might have psychological barriers, and they were willing to attack Ali heresy.

The defenders reported it with bows and arrows, rolling wood stones, and boiled gold juice. The first army climbed out of the car and threw grenades into the city.

The jumping army on the ladder was constantly shot to death, smashed, burned, and fainted. The defenders on the city wanted to deal with the jumping suicide squad in Dengcheng. They had no energy to take care of the camp first, and were also killed by grenades.

There were shouts of killing in the city. Xu Hao replaced Zhang Zihuai, who had not yet recovered from his injuries, as the leader of the first army. A group of special troops under him took advantage of the suicide squad and the defending army to fight lively, and began to dig holes in the city wall with shovels, iron chisels, and hammers.

The city wall had been so badly bombarded by shelling. With one hammer down, a large piece of stone fell down, and the construction was going very quickly. Soon, black gunpowder and explosive packs were stuffed into the hole.

The Daxia army's siege was in an orderly manner, while the Umaya army attacking the fences were in trouble.

There is no city wall here, so it should be better to fight. The Umayyad pioneer fired against the defenders, suppressing the enemy's bows and arrows, and first climbed the troops with an axe to start chopping the fence.

At this time, the ambush of the Ali Army appeared. Large city-guarding crossbows shot out from inside again, and immediately knocked the Umayyad Pioneer back.

The city-guarding crossbow on the city and on the fence had long been knocked off by artillery soldiers. In this month, Ali mobilized the craftsmen in the city and quickly made dozens of city-guarding crossbows, placed them in a remote hidden position to strengthen the defense at the fence. The Umayas caught off guard and suffered a great loss for the first attack.

Muaweiye was about to send someone to continue rushing hard with the city crossbow, but he heard a loud noise from the other side of the city wall and a large piece of the city wall collapsed.

Mu Aweiye was not in a hurry. He rushed in from there, which was much better than charging with a giant crossbow here. Looking at the city wall over there, it was not good, the city wall collapsed, but there was actually a layer of city wall inside.

The city wall inside was not bombarded and was very strong, and the morale of the Daxia army was very depressed.

The walls of Taixifeng are very tall, and the collapsed part is not enough to form a slope to climb the second wall. It is much more difficult to dig holes and install explosives on the solid second wall. Shao Shude was also a little troubled, and hesitated whether to withdraw his troops first and then bombard them for a while.

At this time, Gordon, the leader of the Musketeers, who had not been on the court, asked for a fight, saying that there was a way to deal with the second city wall.

Gordon and Bai Qiwen were different. They performed very well during this period and repeatedly repelled the enemy's cavalry who went out of the city to attack artillery without any damage. They were praised by Shao Shude as the ever-winning army.

His words were still very credible, so Shao Shude believed him and asked Xu Hao to step up his attack and attract the attention of the defenders.

Gordon did not send the Musketeers to the field, and twenty Musketeers' reserve troops were sent out to make holes in the solid inner wall.

The guys in their hands are not better than those under Xu Hao. After working hard for a long time, the holes they made were very small, and then they took out more than a dozen small square packages with green appearances.

Shao Shude used a telescope to watch from a distance, and the small packages were made very precisely at first glance.

There is a small LCD screen on it and twelve white plastic buttons. It should be something that my fifth brother has found from the God of Light. This world is impossible to create. Shao Shude's heart was immediately full of hope.

The defending troops did not care about their people, and the comrades in the siege did not know what they were trying on.

The blasting hands pressed the button a few times, placed the package into the small hole, which was actually stuck to the stones of the city wall. Then they ran back frantically, lay down, and covered their ears with both hands.

Then a huge explosion broke out under the city wall, far exceeding the sound of black gunpowder just now. A mushroom cloud rose, and a piece of the city wall collapsed into the sky.

The Daxia Army's first-row troops and the Jumping Army were accidentally injured dozens of them. All the vanguards and the troops on the city were briefly deaf, and the world seemed to have quieted down.

Xu Hao first reacted, his ears were also buzzing, and he couldn't hear the sound. However, it was visible that he could not hear. Xu Hao waved his long-handed axe, and his subordinates followed closely, rushing into the gap in the city wall.
