The battering ram from below the city also arrived at the city gate. The top of a giant log as thick as an arm was sharpened, covered with iron sheets and hung on the wooden frame of the ram through iron chains. It could swing back and forth.

Dozens of soldiers with shields raised their shields high to defend their heads. From time to time, huge rocks would fall down, which made people's arms numb. Dozens of people held on to the giant hammers and shouted slogans while exerting force:

"One or two, hit!"

With a "Boom!" sound, the battering ram hit the city gate. The defenders behind the gate were stacked up in layers, pressing wooden staffs against the city gate. Every impact caused the defenders' bodies to shake.

, along with the huge counter-shock force, the defenders' feet had already dug a small hole in the ground.

"Nangong Yu!" Xiao Qiu shouted angrily when he saw this situation: "I will go to the city gate to take command, and I will leave it to you upstairs! King Fu has ordered that Lingzhou must be defended!"

Then he turned around and went down to the city, leaving Nangong Yu, who looked a little pale, alone at the top of the city.

In fact, Xiao Qiu also felt a little afraid. Those figures who were not afraid of death were beyond his imagination. He had never seen such a fierce offensive.

The corpses of the three hundred comrades who had sneaked into the city were still hanging on the city wall, constantly swaying in the wind. They were particularly conspicuous in the battlefield and were shocking. Everyone who saw the corpses who climbed the city became furious and roared angrily.

Hold on and try to climb up.

Ye Xiaoxiao, desperate for his own safety, finally climbed over the five-foot-high city wall to the top. He held onto the huge stone at the top of the city with both hands and pushed hard at the same time. He jumped onto the top of the city and stood on the ground before he could even breathe.

, he suddenly turned his head and narrowly avoided a spear thrust from the side. Without stopping for a moment, his right hand drew out his sword and slashed it across the chest of the enemy soldier, killing him with one blow.

As the first person jumped onto the top of the city, the fighting became more and more intense. The defenders' attention began to be distracted. More and more pioneer soldiers successfully climbed to the top. In an instant, the top of the city tower was shouting "kill the sky", and everyone began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

.

The two sides fought fiercely for several hours in the sun. As the sun set in the west and the sky gradually darkened, most of the 5,000 siege soldiers, excluding those who died in the battle, had already climbed onto the tower and started a bloody battle. The defenders had a total of 15,000 people. Even if they climbed onto the city

, and still kills every step of the way.

Seeing the rapid progress of the siege soldiers, Chenyue stood up and waved his hands violently. The sound of war drums behind him sounded again, which was the signal for the entire army to attack.

The infantry formation that stayed in place numbered tens of thousands, and they poured out like locusts. The army carried countless bamboo ladders to the city tower, and followed five thousand soldiers to attack the city.

In order to avoid accidentally killing their own people, the catapults and crossbow phalanx had stopped at this time, and the soldiers carrying crossbows rushed forward one after another and joined the siege.

Chi Ji chopped down one person with one blow, looked at the chaotic battlefield and roared: "Nangong Yu committed treason and committed patricide! Those who surrender will live, and those who help the tyrants will be killed!"

A large number of Nangong soldiers were already suspicious. After such a shout, some people began to flee from the city wall. Only the Fuzhou Army still stood firm at the top of the city.

The angry shouts reached Nangong Yu's ears, making him tremble with fear. Seeing more and more cold soldiers on the tower, Nangong Yu finally couldn't stand it anymore and led dozens of soldiers to run downstairs.

go.

With one impact after another, the gate collapsed suddenly in the frightened eyes of the defenders at the city gate. The soldiers who were holding the giant hammer a second ago drew their swords and started to kill into the city along the gap.

Xiao Qiu led more than a thousand elite soldiers and blocked the Liang soldiers at the city gate. A small slope made of corpses visible to the naked eye between the two sides began to rise gradually. There were corpses covered with wounds everywhere, and everyone was killed.

After a while, people crowded into the city.

Seeing that the city gate had been broken, Chen Yue was overjoyed. He stood up and was about to step down from the general platform. Chu Yucheng blocked Chen Yue's front with one step and said with a gloomy face: "I'll go, I want to give Yu Jin the three hundred yuan."

Soldiers take revenge!"

Looking at Chu Yucheng's determined eyes, Chen Yue nodded. Chu Yucheng rarely went to battle in person, and it seemed that Yu Jin's incident had greatly stimulated him.

Chu Yucheng quickly walked down from the general platform, jumped out on horseback, and shouted angrily: "Bu Wenshan, follow me!" The large group of cavalry followed the two men and ran towards the city gate.

"Dismount! Draw the knife!"

Chu Yucheng, who rushed to the city gate, silently dismounted from his horse and fought in from the city gate. Hundreds of soldiers were closely guarding him on the left and right. Bu Wenshan and other cavalrymen all dismounted and joined in the infantry battle.

"Old General!" Chenyue turned his head and looked at Yan Hongyi: "Seal the four gates and never allow one soldier to escape!"

"No!" Yan Hongyi took the order, and a large group of cavalry began to cruise at the city gate, blocking the city gate tightly.

Ye Xiaoxiao had already killed five or six enemy soldiers in a row at this time, and the knife edge was covered with blood. When he saw the army moving out, he knew that the city gate had been breached, and he felt happy in his heart.

Chu Yucheng and Bu Wenshan were at the forefront of the battle, fighting at close range with Xiao Qiu. Xiao Qiu looked at the two young Liangzhou generals and faced them angrily.

After a fierce battle for a long time, Xiao Qiu's soldiers were killed and injured. Looking at the battlefield where there was no way to save the day, Xiao Qiu gritted his teeth and finally ran towards the city.

After resisting the first wave of counterattack by the defenders, the first soldiers of the Liang army on the city tower finally waited for the soldiers who followed up to attack the city. With Ye Xiaoxiao and others charging in front, their climb to the city went much more smoothly.

Effortlessly walking up the bamboo ladder into the city tower, the defenders who originally had the upper hand finally began to fall into a disadvantage.

Nangong Yu ran back to the barracks in a panic and cursed angrily: "Chen Yue! One day I will cut off your head with my own hands!"

"General! Let's go quickly!" the soldiers urged urgently.

Nangong Yu was alert and quickly put on a set of civilian clothes and started to flee. The number of soldiers around him gradually decreased, some died in battle and some escaped. Slowly, Nangong Yu was left alone.

Hiding in the middle of the city.

Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the collapsed defenders on the city, strode up to the enemy general's flag, cut off the flagpole with a knife, and the general's flags with the characters "Nangong" or "Xiao" written on them were continuously thrown off the tower. This scene,

The defender's psychological defense finally collapsed.

Even the general's flag has been chopped off, how can we still fight this battle?

As Xiao Qiu left, the defenders at the city gate also gave up resistance and retreated into the city. A large number of Liangzhou infantry troops poured into the city, occupied the four gate towers, and began to clean up the remaining soldiers everywhere.

Groups of cavalry roared in, and the sound of horse hooves could be heard in the streets of the city.

The slogan "Those who resist will be killed, those who surrender will live." resounded throughout the city. Gradually, Nangong soldiers began to kneel down and surrender. Then this miserable mood spread among the Fuzhou defenders. One after another, the defenders put down their weapons and surrendered.

The fierce Liangzhou soldiers put their weapons against their necks.

The fighting continued until dark, and the fighting in the city finally stopped. Only a handful of stubborn resisters were still resisting, but they were soon strangled by a large number of Liang troops.
