Before Yunzhou City could catch its breath, it once again heard the horn sound of the Turkic attack outside the city.
Yun Chong, who comforted the wounded soldiers, had to replace his old man Yun Yang and climbed the city wall again to prepare for defense. Yun Yang's wound from the arrow was considered minor or serious.
However, it takes at least two days of training before he can do it. As a result, the heavy responsibility of defending the city once again falls on Yunchong's shoulders.
Lieutenant General Yan Gan was holding a telescope to survey the enemy forces outside the city. Only by seeing clearly how the Turks attacked the city could he deploy effective defensive measures.
Yan Gan, who was silently calculating the strength of the Turks' troops, changed his face in shock, and hurriedly handed the telescope in his hand to Yunchong.
"General, look, look, the Turks have fire... fire... artillery."
Yan Gan's tone couldn't help but tremble. It was difficult enough for him to face the Turkic Yunzhou with many soldiers and generals and insufficient siege equipment.
Now that the Turks had artillery as a powerful siege weapon in their hands, this situation made Yan Gan, a veteran general, panic.
Upon hearing this, Yun Chong hurriedly took the telescope and looked in the direction of Yan Gan's finger. He couldn't help but tremble when he saw the twenty artillery pieces protected behind him by Turkic sword and shield hands.
It was difficult for the Turks to make weapons, so how could they have such a powerful siege weapon as artillery?
Although the artillery in the hands of the Huben Army was distributed by the Ministry of War, Yun Chong, as a general guarding the border in Shuo, naturally understood the difficulty of building artillery.
It is obviously unreasonable for the Turks to have such a lethal thing in their hands.
Yun Chong put down the telescope in his hand blankly and frowned tightly.
"How come the Turks have these things? Is it true that God wants to destroy Yunzhou?"
"General, could it be the artillery that the Turks exchanged from the Jin Kingdom? After all, it is no secret that the Jin Kingdom cast artillery. Although they did not explicitly join forces this time when they went south, the four of them could tell that they had already
They are already colluding and hooking up together."
"If nothing goes wrong, these artillery pieces are most likely obtained from the Jin Kingdom. What should we do now? Once the Turks use artillery to bombard the city gate, it will only be a matter of time before Yunzhou falls!"
Yun Chong took a few deep breaths to calm down: "Don't be impatient now. We'll talk about it after we figure it out."
"Don't you find it strange? Since the Turks have these powerful siege weapons, why didn't they use them early, and instead let their infantry who were not good at siege attack the city by force?"
"Don't you think the timing of the appearance of these artillery pieces is a bit unreasonable?"
"this........"
Yan Gan also hesitated. According to what the general said, it was indeed unreasonable for the Turks to not use artillery even though they had it.
After thinking for a long time, Yan Gan considered various possibilities.
"Commander, we have discussed it before. The Turks gathered their troops to fight against me at Yunzhou City. Their purpose is to encircle us for reinforcements and surround us to force Ganzhou. The brothers from Suzhou came to rescue them and defeated them if they failed to attack the city.
Turn the disadvantage into the field battle they are good at."
"We have been attacking the city for several days in a row, but none of the brothers from Ganzhou's two guards came to support us. Are the Turks planning to change their plan and attack Yunzhou directly? They will drive straight into the hinterland of Dalong."
"For them, encircling a point for reinforcements and marching straight in are very impressive achievements. After all, the initiative is in their hands."
"In this case, it is not unreasonable to take out these artillery pieces at this time."
Yun Chong nodded hesitantly: "That makes sense, but these artillery pieces..."
Yun Chong subconsciously picked up the telescope and looked over again. When the artillery became more and more clear in the telescope, Yun Chong was startled.
He suddenly felt that the Turkic artillery looked familiar, as if it was somewhat similar to his own artillery.
Yun Chong planned to wait for the artillery to get closer and check carefully. Before he could raise the lens tube, the Turks outside the city accelerated their charge, and the sound of charging and killing went straight to the city wall.
"General, please make an idea quickly. Those artillery pieces are getting closer and closer to the city gate. There is still a chance for artillery bombardment before the enemy cannons are deployed."
The Turks attacked with such urgency that even Yunchong, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, could not help but feel a little panicked. The main reason was that he had no time to think. The Turks' attack was too fierce.
"Send the order, order the gunners to bombard those artillery pieces that have not yet begun to be deployed!"
"Got the order!"
As Huyan Yunyao said to Hu Yanyu, Yunchong neither dared to gamble nor could afford to gamble.
The current situation in Yunzhou City no longer has any chips to gamble on.
The artillery on the city wall focused its fire on the Turks' artillery, and the Turks' infantry and siege vehicles were all able to approach the bottom of the city wall without any damage.
Without the help of artillery, a powerful weapon, the Turks' attack put unprecedented pressure on the Yunzhou City defenders.
By the time more than a dozen of the Turks' artillery pieces were blown away, it was too late when Yun Chong realized that something was wrong with these artillery pieces.
Facing the rain of arrows on the city wall, the Turks who fought back with thundering rocks and rolling trees have begun to climb towards the city wall without fear of death.
Some old soldiers from northern Xinjiang who were unfortunately hit by arrows and still had some strength left wanted to imitate their old brothers and hold the fire oil and die together with the Turks. However, they had just picked up the oil jar and before they had time to climb up the city wall and light the fire oil, they were killed outside the city.
Rockets fired from the Turks' siege vehicles hit the oil altar.
With a bang, fire splashed over the city wall and engulfed the old soldier.
Except for the Turkic vulture shooters, no one can find such sharp archery skills.
The tragic fate of several old brothers attracted the attention of the surrounding soldiers. While facing the enemy troops who were about to climb the city wall, they quickly moved towards the siege vehicle.
Seeing the Turks on the siege vehicle who were wearing unique long bows with long bows and bows and arrows, these old soldiers could tell the identities of these people at a glance.
Turkic Condor Shooter.
In order to protect their siege equipment from being destroyed by the Northern Xinjiang veterans with fierce fire oil, these eagle shooters closely watched every move on the city wall and strangled the minds of the veterans in the cradle.
"Old brothers, be careful of the Turkic vulture shooters. If anyone doesn't survive later, let us know in advance. Brothers will use their shields to protect you. At worst, we old bones will die together."
"It's a deal."
"With the total death!"
Over a cup of tea, the veterans figured out how to deal with the Condor Shooter.
With the fierce offensive of the Turks, the first Turk finally stormed the city wall, but the fate of this Turk is needless to say, it can be imagined.
However, this man died in exchange for a way out, and the Turks who followed slowly began to climb up the city wall.
"General, Turks have already boarded the city in the west of the city. Let the auxiliary troops come up to defend the enemy! Many Turks have dismounted and acted as infantry to attack the city wall. Without reinforcements, Yunzhou will definitely fall today.
Under the iron cavalry of the Turks!"
Yun Chong covered the wound caused by the arrow on his arm and killed a Turk who had not had time to climb the city wall with one knife.
After glancing at the growing number of Turks on the city wall, he pulled out the command flag from his waist and handed it to Yan Gan.
"Call the order, all the soldiers in Yunzhou City, the main battle, the government soldiers, the auxiliary soldiers, the street guards, and the three squadrons of government officials, old and young, all come to the city to meet the enemy. The city is still alive, but the city is broken and people will die!"
"Yun Chong is willing to die together with all the brothers and seniors to serve the country..."
"Generalissimo Nangong Ye of the troops on the right led the Fuzhou Feiyingwei brothers to come to our aid."
"Generalissimo Nangong Ye of the troops on the right led the Fuzhou Feiyingwei brothers to come to our aid."
"Come on!"
"Generalissimo Liu Mingzhi of the middle route, Zhou Baoyu, led the Polu army brothers to come to our aid!"
"The lower section under the command of Generalissimo Liu Mingzhi on the middle route could not bear to lead the brothers of the pagoda cavalry to come to our aid!"
"Come on!"
Suddenly, deafening shouts came from the east of Yunzhou City, where the sound of killing was shaking.
Both the Turks and the Yunzhou guards subconsciously glanced outside the city.
I saw the flags in the east of the city covering the sky, and the smoke and dust billowing like clouds and dragons falling.
Liu Zi Shuai Ban and Nangong Shuai Ban, with two embroidered brocade flags fluttering in the wind, galloped towards Yunzhou. Their momentum was so huge that one could not see how many soldiers and horses were charging towards Yunzhou.
"Hahaha............."
"God will not destroy my Yunzhou City!"
"God will not destroy our Yunzhou City!"
"Brothers, reinforcements are coming, kill the enemy!"
In front of the Turkic Central Army's tent, Huyan Yunyao, who was looking at Yunzhou City as if he was sure of victory, changed his face when he heard the sound of a charge to the east of Yunzhou City. He stood up and looked towards the east.
Looking at the reinforcements in the east of the city whose actual strength could not be clearly seen, Huyan Yunyao'e's eyebrows knitted together tightly.
"Did the Jin Kingdom lose?"
Hu Yanyu's face was also a little solemn, and she walked closely to Hu Yanjunyao.
"We are sweating profusely and the sky is covered with smoke and dust. We still don't know how many soldiers and horses there are. I suggest that we withdraw our troops and let the infantry withdraw first to avoid being outflanked by the dragon's soldiers and horses."
Huyan Yunyao's beautiful eyes looked unwillingly at the Turkic soldiers and horses who had already stormed the city wall.
"Trash, are all the scouts who went to Jeju to conduct reconnaissance just for a living? Dalong's reinforcements have all arrived, but there's no news yet!"
"It's all rubbish, rubbish!"
"Great Khan, it's too late to say anything, withdraw your troops!"
"When our troops are mounted on war horses, they can fight no matter how many reinforcements there are. Now is not the time to get angry. Preserving our strength is the most important thing."
Huyan Yunyao sighed with a complicated expression.
"Ming Jin withdraws the troops, withdraws ten miles, and finds out the strength of the enemy's troops before engaging in battle!"
