The first thousand two hundred and forty-four chapters intense
Chapter 1,244 Fierce
"From now on, no collisions are allowed to approach the city. Trebuchets must be prevented in advance. They can block strong bows and crossbows, but they cannot block the heavy bullets of trebuchets. Even if they are really close to the city gate, they must use kerosene in advance.
Burn, do you understand?"
Now that we have determined that the enemy's car collision does pose a considerable threat to the city gate, we must nip this threat in the bud and deny them a chance to approach the city gate.
"General, the enemy's truck has arrived."
I can't take care of myself after the car crash just now, and now the enemy's car is also slowly moving towards here.

"Inform the trebuchet to change the heavy ammunition for me and destroy their truck."
Taishi Ci also saw the carts, and directly ordered the trebuchet troops to reload with heavy bombs and smash the carts. Collision would be very harmful to the city gate, and hugging the carts would be very harmful to the city wall. There is no need to try this, just kill them.
alright.
"promise."
Upon hearing Tai Shici's order, the trebuchet troops began to replace the scattered bombs with heavy bombs, and then carried out regional bombing based on the traveling speed and direction of the building trucks.
The 10-frame chariot carefully prepared by Kravan was still some distance away from the city wall when it was blown away and smashed into fragments all over the sky.
"General, there are only so many buildings and carriages, and the rest have not yet been renovated. It is obviously impossible to break through the city wall with ladders alone."
This is the third time that the partial general has come to Klavan's side. This time there is really no other way. If he persists, he will not let the soldiers attack the city, but die.
"We must attack even if we cannot attack. Even if the losses are greater, we must bring out the morale of the empire. We cannot let the Chinese look down upon us."
Krawan naturally knew that it was not the right time to continue the attack, but now this was the Kushan Empire's first attack, and it was just a facade. No matter what the situation was, he had to withstand it. At least he could not stop the attack until Hariwan ordered a retreat.
Without Klavan's order to retreat, his soldiers did not dare to hesitate and continued to move forward despite their casualties.
"What is Kelawan doing? Why do he continue to attack when his buildings and carriages have been smashed? This is irresponsible to our Kushan soldiers. I will withdraw my troops immediately and ask him to get back."
Hariwan, who was watching the battle from a distance, saw that Klavan's trucks were gone and he was still trying to fill the bottomless pit with his life. He immediately became angry and immediately sent people to call for gold to withdraw the troops, and at the same time asked Klawan to come over.
The golden sound resounded throughout the sky, and Klavan finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this sound.
"withdraw troops."
He turned the horse's head and left directly, running in the direction of Harrivan.
In this way, the first attack of the Kushan Empire ended in an anticlimactic manner. More than 40,000 soldiers abandoned their siege equipment, left the walls of Moon City, and returned to their own army.
"General."
Klavan jumped off his horse, knelt on one knee, and saluted Harrivan.
"waste."
Harrivan looked at Klavan with a flash of anger in his eyes.
"Please, General, punish me."
Although Hariwan scolded him, Klavan was not angry at all. After all, what he fought in this siege was really shit, and any scolding he received was light.
"Your punishment will be light. If it weren't for a war, I would really want to kill you right now. What do you think of Moon City's defense?"
Although Hariwan was angry, he also knew that the current situation did not allow killing on the spot.
"General, the defense of this Moon City is very strong. At least among the cities I have seen, except for the defense capabilities of the capital, there is no one that can compare with him. If you want to capture this place, you will have to attack with the whole army."
Do not think."
As the commander at the forefront of the siege, Klavan knows the most about Moon City's defense, and his words are also the most authoritative.
"I'm asking you if you have any countermeasures against Yue Cheng. I'm not asking you to praise the other person."
Harrivan frowned. When Kravan spoke like this, he was suspected of praising others and belittling himself.
"I haven't thought of a countermeasure yet. If it's difficult to attack from above, you can go below and dig tunnels to attack."
Since Hariwan wants to ask himself about countermeasures and solutions, the only strategy he can think of now is that if there is no way to go above, go below and attack the city wall by digging tunnels.
"General, the method of digging tunnels takes too long. We need to capture Yongchang and advance into Yizhou before the Chinese Empire can react. Therefore, I suggest that we attack by force. If Krawan is timid, my soldiers are willing to take the lead.
Responsibilities.”
After hearing Klavan's suggestion, General Zihart on one side directly clasped his fists at Hariwan, expressing his willingness to take on the main offensive task.
"Okay, Kelawan will rest for the time being. He will allocate 20,000 troops to Qihart's 30,000 troops to form a 50,000-strong army to attack the Moon City for me."
Hariwan also knew that what they lacked most now was time. Perhaps their original defeat made China think that the Kushan Empire was weak, so until its own army reinforced its troops, the Chinese Empire on the opposite side still did not move to increase its troops.
But now that his army has arrived, the Chinese Empire will definitely increase its troops, so he must capture this place before the Chinese Empire's reinforcements arrive.
"Your Majesty."
Hearing that Hariwan had assigned Krawan's 20,000 troops to him, Kirhart was also excited. He knew that Krawan did something bad this time, and Hariwan was angry, so he divided his troops.
"Don't let me down."
Harrivan patted Kirhart on the shoulder and directly signaled him to prepare to attack.
Although Kirhart wanted to fly with his army and attack the opposite city wall, he couldn't, because all the good things just now were wiped out by Klavan.
Although he had prepared a lot of siege equipment when he came, it was very difficult to come up with something suitable for Moon City. And since he was going to take over from Klawan, he had to be fully prepared.
He did a rough calculation of the building trucks, and found that they would need at least thirty, not to mention aerial ladders. These all took time, so the day passed like this, and it wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that Kirhart had all the things he needed.
Be prepared.
"General, everything is ready."
Kirhart sat astride his horse and looked at the city wall in front of him. A flash of light flashed in his eyes. This city was destined to become a stepping stone for his rise. He would step on Klavan's head to become the first-class general of Kushan.
Rise up.
"Order the entire army to attack. If anyone dares to retreat, military law will be dealt with."
Kirhart directly drew the long sword from his waist and ordered the soldiers to move forward to attack Moon City.
"kill."
"Go ahead."
"Capture the wall."
Kirhart's soldiers and horses were in good order, and they charged towards Moon City with neat steps.
"Trebuchet, release."
Seeing the enemy coming like this, Taishi Ci also smiled slightly and directly ordered the trebuchet to attack.
The overwhelming scattered bullets were like a dark cloud falling from the sky, directly covering Kirhart's troops below.
Countless soldiers were directly hit by shotguns and fell to the ground. Dark red blood and broken corpses were everywhere.
"General, when facing the enemy's trebuchets, the best way is to spread out the military formation and use skirmish lines to reduce the lethality of the shotguns."
Seeing that Kirhart's people were unable to take care of themselves after being smashed like this, General Drum, who was sent by Klavan to support him, couldn't stand it anymore, so he came directly to his side and told him about his own experience of being smashed out.
come out.
"Drum, are you teaching me how to do things?"
Hearing that a little general dared to teach him how to do things, Kirhart's temper suddenly rose, and he just sneered and spoke to him.
"Don't dare to humble yourself, it's just a rule of thumb."
Drum glanced at Kirhart, not wanting to argue with him.
"Let me speak from experience. My people don't need you to tell them what to do. Now lead your 20,000 people to attack immediately."
After looking at Drum, Zierhardt directly ordered him to lead his army to attack the city wall immediately.
"promise."
Drum glanced at Kirhart. He said what he said. If the other party didn't adopt it, he wouldn't be the one to blame.
"Follow me to attack."
Drum directly led the 20,000 soldiers under his command to form a skirmish line, carrying ladders and pushing carts, and began to attack the city wall.
Sure enough, the losses of Drum's side in the skirmish line were much smaller than those of Kirhart's men. Many scattered bullets flew and hit the open space. Even so, their losses were not small.
Seeing that the casualties of Drum's soldiers were smaller than his own, Kirhart's soldiers were not stupid either. They began to spread out their formation and attack the city wall.
"General, the soldiers' formation has been dispersed. Do you want to restrain them?"
Seeing that his own soldiers were beginning to imitate Drum's soldiers, the partial generals under Zierhardt also came to his side.
"No, that's it for now."
Kirhart shook his head, as long as the loss of his soldiers was smaller, that would be fine.
Fifty thousand soldiers seemed to be star-filled, attacking the city wall from all directions, but even so, they still experienced saturation attacks, trebuchets, crossbows, bows and arrows did not stop for a moment, like the god of death wielding a scythe, constantly harvesting the enemy's
life.
Soon the ladder rushed to the edge of the city wall first and was set up on the wall. The soldiers began to climb up the ladder.
A fierce battle broke out in an instant. One by one, the Kushan soldiers fell from the ladder and hit the ground and turned into pieces of rotten flesh.
"The crash car is coming, prepare for heavy bombing, smash it."
Taishi Ci looked at the iron king's car and directly ordered the soldier in charge of the trebuchet to direct the trebuchet to attack the car.
"boom."
"boom."
"boom."
A series of crashing sounds resounded throughout the sky, and heavy live bullets hit the crashing car hard. Although the crashing car was covered with iron armor and could not be hurt by swords, it was still somewhat unable to withstand the heavy bullets falling from the sky.
It was directly hit with a banging sound. Even if the car did not fall apart temporarily after the collision, the soldiers pushing the cart inside were also shaken to pieces and were killed and injured.
"Crash the car, continue to get on board, and keep moving forward."
Seeing that the crashed car was so damaged that it was difficult to move forward, and the soldiers suffered heavy losses, Zierhardt could only order the soldiers to replenish the troops and push the crashed car forward.
After hearing Kirhart's order, some soldiers quickly stepped in and pushed the crash cart forward. However, before taking two steps, they were smashed to death and injured again. With a final loud noise, they were completely paralyzed and fell to the ground.
Seeing the crash cars being destroyed one by one, Taishi Ci was relieved. The enemy's crash car was indeed better than his own. When the time comes, he must make it clear to Jia Xu to build some bigger crash cars and try to get rid of them all at once.
The kind where the city gate falls apart after being hit.
"The next step is to attack the enemy's truck."
After the car was destroyed by the collision, it was the turn of the building car next. After all, this is the best support for the siege party. After destroying them, it is simply impossible for the enemy to use the ladder to capture Moon City.
Although after receiving orders from Taishi Ci, the trebuchets began to attack the carriages, but this time Zierhardt was too well prepared. The tops of the thirty-story carriages were heavily bombarded and slowly moved forward. Finally, after more than half of them were damaged, the ten-story carriages
