Chapter 4454 The situation is extremely critical
The sky above the city was filled with smoke. The Zhao army erected a high ladder. The officers and soldiers climbed upwards with their teeth, forming a long line, but were smashed by stones from above, causing the top sergeant to burst into blood and screaming and falling down.
At the same time, another group of Zhao soldiers took out the flying claws connected to the rope from the storage bag, swung them and made a buzzing sound, and then threw them up.
The flying claws landed on the battlements of the city walls, and the officers and soldiers crawled up quickly with the ropes. After all, there were many people and almost covered the entire wall.
Looking at the gate, the Zhao army's giant wood team had already run to the front, carrying logs and hitting the city gate fiercely, making a bang sound...
The city gate was trembling with great pressure, and there were no officers and soldiers guarding it, because the garrison soldiers all went to the city tower to fight against the enemy. Thousands of people appeared here, one by one, with their bodies facing the city gate so as not to be knocked open.
Almost all the people in the city were dispatched. The Yan State's official army and the people shared the same hatred of the enemy and tried their best to protect the city. However, the war must be cruel. The Zhao State's army not only had a large number of people, but also dispatched elite soldiers and generals. With the continuous attack, Kuyu City fell into a great crisis and could not last long.
The General Zhou Hongsheng of Zhao State in the distance always looked at him with sharp eyes, feeling that the time was almost done, and he even made a strange move. He shouted: "The stone thrower came over immediately and pretended to be someone..."
Dozens of stone throwers moved forward more than ten feet. This time, instead of throwing stones, living people stood in giant wooden spoons and were thrown out one after another.
These soldiers are considered suicide squadrons and have high strength. Under the influence of powerful force, they drew arcs in the air and flew up the city tower, and also faced the danger of being shot by sharp arrows. Fortunately, they all held shields to defend, which improved the safety factor.
Seeing that the Zhao soldiers were thrown by a stone thrower, Liu Xinwu, the guard of Kuyu City, roared angrily: "Hurry up and shoot these dogs and bastards to death..."
The few Yan soldiers on the city tower quickly pulled their bows and shot arrows. The sound of whizzing through the air was endless. The sharp arrows passed through the air, and most of them fell on the shields. A small number of them also shot the death squadrons' heads and even shoulders, causing their casualties and screaming and falling from the air.
There is no doubt that the soldiers who threw them are elites, at least at the level of spiritual surge, need to adjust their direction in the air, and even use spiritual power to use inertia to land on the city tower. Ordinary soldiers cannot do this at all, so they should not be underestimated.
Under the raging feather arrows, the Zhao army officers and soldiers who flew over for the first time lost more than ten people. About one-third of them flew to the city tower, and several people also hit the city wall and fell down.
These dozens of Zhao soldiers swung their swords and slashed at the Chu soldiers with extremely fierce swords. The two sides fought fiercely. Although they were fewer people, they were all fierce people who had been selected. They were desperate for battle and were even stronger, as if they were crazy monsters, not showing any weakness.
The defenders fought desperately with them, and the stone-throwing machine threw the second group of Zhao soldiers above the city tower. In this way, the defense of the Chu soldiers was inconsistent with each other, and many Zhao soldiers also climbed up from the ladder and joined the battle.
In just a moment, more than a thousand Zhao troops came to the city tower, waving weapons to kill the defenders. Below were the officers and soldiers of Zhao State climbing up the ladder. Obviously, the situation was too long and it would take to break through the city...
Zhou Hongsheng, the general of Zhao State in the distance, looked at it sincerely, raised his lips and showed a sneer. There was no doubt that the city was destined to be destroyed. He won the first battle and finally opened the door for the Chu-Zhao army to invade Yan State. His achievements will spread throughout the army, and he accumulated more and more capital, laying a solid foundation for becoming the commander in the future.
He was excited and suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked up to the southeast and saw some black spots appearing in the gloomy sky, moving quickly toward this side, which seemed extremely mysterious in the night.
When they noticed that the general's expression was different, the officers and soldiers around them turned their heads and looked at it. In an instant, the black spots became much bigger and they were obviously flying quickly.
One of the military officers said in wonder: "What is the flying monster? Does it look like a lot?"
Everyone stared at them with their eyes wide open, and they thought it made sense. However, reality quickly overturned this speculation. As the shadow gradually approached, it was possible to see clearly that the one flying in the head was a half-man and half-horse. It should be a woman, with golden hair fluttering in the wind and her fair skin was particularly eye-catching.
"Ah..." Someone said in surprise: "The one at the front is a female centaur, and there is a boy sitting on her back."
Another military officer frowned and said, "What the hell are those guys behind? Are the eagles?"
Someone who saw clearly said hurriedly: "No, that's the Eagleman..."
Flying in the air was the Centaur Queen Helen and more than a thousand eagle warriors. In the shortest time, they tried their best to come over and appeared above Kuyu City.
The young man sitting on the queen's back was naturally Qiu Yu. Looking around the world, no one was qualified to be treated like this by Helen. At this moment, he was already disguised, wearing a dragon ghost on his head, and a long and jade-standing body covered with a Linyun armor. It was a high-level defensive equipment stored in the ring. It was a special material and exquisite workmanship. It was obtained by Prince Yun's mansion that year, but it was kept privately before it was handed over to the treasury.
When he was on the road, Qiu Yu completed the dressing change on Helen's back. After all, this rescue of the crisis in Kuyucheng was equivalent to marching and fighting, and he restored his commander's style.
As the saying goes, Buddha relies on gold clothes, and people rely on clothes. With this outfit, Qiu Yu's temperament has changed greatly, less mediocre and more heroic spirit. He is really majestic, just like a young god descending to earth. Even Queen Helen turned her head and saw it. An admirable look appeared in her bright sky blue eyes, and the beauty has become a fanatic girl, and she praised her endlessly.
In addition, Qiu Yu held a strange dragon-shaped sword in his right hand, which was not an ordinary rank. It added a lot of aura to the top seven-level weapon and a rare treasure.
Deep in the night, there were burning flames everywhere inside and outside the city, with gunpowder smoke filled with thick smell of fishy smell around. Corpse on the city and under the city were everywhere, and the battlefield became like hell on earth, making people shudder.
A hint of green appeared in Qiuyu's starry eyes, and he looked down from a high point, and he became more and more real. He first glanced at the cavalry of Zhao State, Fangzheng, and countless siege officers and soldiers, and then looked at the hundreds of ladders on the city wall, as well as the dense soldiers climbing on it, and the city gates where the huge trees were knocked open to the gap...
On the city tower, the officers and soldiers on both sides waving weapons to kill each other. There were not many soldiers wearing gray Yan's uniforms, while the officers and soldiers of Zhao, dressed in black, appeared one after another, and the situation was extremely critical.
