Luo Ji's 3,000-strong army was pressing down on the border. At this moment, Luo Ji's superiority in military strength was almost obvious. The opponent's defense force was obviously less than 1,000 men. The previous ten rounds of bombing by five three-bow crossbows had already severely reduced their morale.

, and now they were suppressed by a large-scale rain of arrows from the archers. In this wave of siege battles, Luo Ji unexpectedly used the effect of morale flow. In this situation, during the siege battle, it was actually

Very rare.

Unless it is a crushing battle, otherwise, the soldiers defending the city will have the city wall as a support, and the overall morale will be relatively stable and not easy to decline.

It can only be said that Luo Ji's style of taking advantage of the three-bow crossbow and standing outside the opponent's attack range to bombard the city wall was really demoralizing.

Taking advantage of the opportunity for the archers to suppress the opponent, the shield and ax soldiers pushed the siege vehicle all the way and rushed outside the city gate. With a muffled sound of "bang", they were holding up a shield to resist the arrow rain above the defenders.

The city general Zhang Xijun's heart trembled, and then he shouted repeatedly, "The first group of shield and ax soldiers held up the city gate! The second group climbed up the city wall to push the rolling logs and rocks!"

After hearing the order, the soldiers of the first unit of [Biqudao www.biqudao.info] decisively pushed forward. After all, they also knew that once the city gate was completely knocked down, the enemy would attack.

But the demoralized soldiers of the second unit, all with stiff expressions on their faces, climbed up the city wall. Who couldn't see the overwhelming rain of arrows? They were shot over in sheets, crushing them.

The archers here didn't have a chance to fight back. The group of people who ran slowly before were shot into hedgehogs on the spot. Their bodies were still lying on the city wall before they could be dragged down! Now let them climb up and push the rolling logs and rocks.

?Isn’t that asking them to die? For a moment, none of them moved.

When Zhang Xijun saw that the soldiers of the second unit did not follow his orders, a look of violence suddenly flashed in his eyes as he was in a restless mood. Then he stabbed the soldier closest to him to death with a sword, and then

He shouted viciously, "Those who disobey military orders will be killed without mercy!!"

The soldiers were obviously frightened by Zhang Xijun's action of drawing his sword to kill, and all of them turned pale. At the same time, as the general who defended the city, Zhang Xijun obviously still had power, so these soldiers did not dare to resist him.

, if you climb the city wall, you may have a narrow escape, but if you disobey military orders, you will obviously die!

Thinking of this, the hesitant soldiers gritted their teeth, began to raise their shields, and rushed towards the city wall.

However, the cruel reality told them that mere determination would not make the archer troops outside the city show mercy to them.

The soldiers at the front holding large shields obviously wanted to rush to the city wall to find a bunker. This idea and train of thought were actually correct. The longer they lingered at this time, the more dangerous they became.

However, the correct idea does not mean success. After the large shield is raised, it is indeed effective in resisting attacks. However, it has a flaw, that is, it is too heavy. Carrying such a heavy shield, you still want to charge up.

?This approach is destined to ask for trouble.

I saw one of the soldiers holding a large shield rushing forward for two steps before his feet became unsteady. His whole body suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground. In the next moment, a hail of arrows shot him on the spot.

He turned into a hedgehog, and the soldiers following him felt chilled in their hearts when they saw the miserable death.

At this moment, a young man from behind who was also holding a large shield and dressed like an ordinary soldier suddenly shouted loudly, "The arrow rain from the opposite side cannot penetrate the defense of the large shield! Everyone, hold still and form a shield formation.

Go up step by step!!"

The young man's words obviously had an effect. The panicked soldiers on the city wall suddenly found their backbone and gradually stabilized their position.

Looking through the telescope, Luo Ji saw this scene with a flash of surprise in his eyes, but that was all. By now, the city gate was already crumbling. A few rolling logs and a few stones could not save it.

This city!

"Siege troops! Be careful to avoid the rolling logs and rocks that fall from the city wall! Attack the city with all your strength!!" The siege troops were already in high morale. They knew they were coming to counterattack the city in the southeast of Zhou Dynasty. Each and every one of them had experienced the previous experience in Xiyuan City.

The soldiers in the battle were all working hard! Under this premise, Luo Ji added fuel to their fire, throwing down the 'morale boosting' skill, and the morale of the entire army suddenly climbed to a new level.

height.

"The city gate, the city gate is going to collapse!!!"

The enemy soldiers screamed from inside the city gate. The city gate, which had been blasted with several holes by heavy crossbow arrows and then hit by siege vehicles, finally fell to the ground under the heavy load at this moment. The archers

The troops' offensive then stopped. Their mission had been completed, and now it was up to the infantry troops.

Without letting the infantry troops stop, Luo Ji waved his hand and "rushed in with the siege truck!!"

It was just a siege vehicle. As long as it could capture the city, it would be scrapped after that. Luo Ji didn't feel any pain at all. If the siege vehicle used to ram the city gate hit the formation of the shield and axe troops on the opposite side, it would be

You can imagine the effect, but it's a pity that you can only hit it once, after all, the opponent will not give you a second chance.

The collision of the siege vehicle bought them space at the city gate. The shield and axe soldiers who poured in later roared and charged in. The suppression of the force made the battle completely lose suspense the moment the city gate collapsed.

This couldn't help but make Luo Yong, who followed Luo Ji, feel a little depressed in his heart. He had been on the grassland for a long time, and it was rare to be transferred back. He originally wanted to show off, but how could he have thought that these enemies could not help but fight?

"Let go, let go! I am your Majesty's personally appointed General Zhendong! If you dare to attack our border with Great Zhou, have you ever thought about what will happen?!"

"Your Majesty, Dazhou..." Luo Ji couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard these two words. He really hadn't noticed before that Zhou Southeast had already proclaimed himself emperor at that time, but after thinking about it, it wasn't anything unusual.

thing.

At this moment, Zhang Xijun, the general who defended the city, was escorted all the way to Luo Ji by two shield and ax soldiers. Then, one of the soldiers kicked the opponent's knee and said, "Kneel down for me."

you!"

The kick was so fast and accurate that Zhang Xijun fell to his knees in front of Luo Ji with a thud. How had he, the majestic General Zhou Zhendong, ever suffered such humiliation?

He was about to shout something angrily, but unexpectedly when he raised his head, he saw a flash of sword light in front of his eyes, and a clean sword slashed directly on his neck!
