Sharp arrows passed through the gaps in the shields and caused damage to the soldiers behind them, but these were still of little use to the Kushan army. The city-defending crossbows still fired crossbows non-stop, causing damage to the buildings and vehicles.
"General, the loss of soldiers is quite heavy. The Kushan army's defense is very tight. Even if the truck can kill them, at most there will only be ten or less left."
Alan Shanda, as the first king of the Western Regions to surrender to China, has always been fighting with the army. The first wave of charges were made by soldiers from the Western Regions, so naturally he also went out with the army.
"What are your Majesty's orders?"
Ju Yi glanced at Alan Shanda and did not answer him. Instead, he asked Yuan Shu for his order.
"Your Majesty ordered the army to attack the city wall."
Hearing Ju Yi's words, Alan Shanda was also stunned and didn't understand what he meant.
"That's good. His Majesty's order is to attack the city wall. Then we only need to act in accordance with your Majesty's order. As for how tight the enemy's defense is and how much our losses are, these are not things we have to consider. You
Understand?"
Ju Yi turned his head towards the city wall and ignored the other party.
"Alan Shanda understands."
Alan Shanda also understood what the other party meant now. Yuan Shu's words were an imperial edict. If he wanted the army to move forward, then they must move forward. No matter what was ahead, as a minister, he only needed to carry out it.
"Well, let's continue the attack."
"promise."
After receiving Ju Yi's order, the army continued to advance towards the city wall in front of them without delay.
Just as Alan Shanda guessed, under the enemy's wild bombing, one frame truck was destroyed by the enemy. In the end, only ten frame trucks arrived safely at the edge of the Gambilas city wall.
"Place the tie-board."
"Peng."
"Peng."
"Peng."
The ten-truck carriage opened its slats at the same time, and the Chinese army, which had been prepared for a long time, jumped over the slats and began to siege the city.
"kill."
The Chinese people actually had ten carriages coming to kill them. Mifulite was also prepared and directly ordered the soldiers who were already ready to start strangulating the Chinese side.
On the city wall, the Kushan army had a huge advantage. Facing the Chinese army, they kept attacking like a tide.
Yuan Shu chose the first wave of offensive forces to be soldiers from the Western Regions. On the one hand, it was to preserve the elites of the Chinese Empire, and on the other hand, it was also to test the strength of the Kushan Army and accumulate data and experience for the subsequent general offensive.
The Western Region soldiers faced far more Kushan soldiers than themselves. Although they fought tenaciously, the results were still not ideal. Not only did they not open up the situation, they were even pushed to the side of the building and cart by the Kushan soldiers in some places, and they were chopped with swords and axes.
The car was completely destroyed.
"We can't fight anymore, so retreat."
"Run away."
"I quit."
After all, miscellaneous cards are miscellaneous. Facing the fierce attack of the Kushan Army, these soldiers from the Western Regions finally couldn't resist and began to collapse and retreat.
"Instruct the second group of soldiers to board the city and continue the attack."
Seeing that the soldiers in the front row had collapsed, Ju Yi looked helpless and directly ordered the collapsed soldiers to retreat, while arranging for the second group of soldiers to continue climbing the city to fight.
"promise."
The second group of soldiers who had already been prepared did not hesitate and quickly climbed up the city wall through the stairs of the building cart, taking over from the collapsed first group of soldiers to continue the battle to capture the city.
The battle is still going on. Although the soldiers of the Western Regions are not strong in combat, they can still fight with the wind. Now they are the soldiers of the Chinese side, occupying the purest general trend, and they are also extraordinary in bravery.
But this bravery has its limits. Faced with huge casualties, they simply cannot fight with purpose and faith like the main force of China, nor can they fight to the death without retreating.
Not long after, the second wave of soldiers from the Western Regions who boarded the city collapsed again, and the number of Lou Ches dropped sharply to five after the two battles, and the remaining five were destroyed by the Kushan Army.
"The third wave of soldiers continues to ascend the city."
Ju Yi took one look at the current situation and directly ordered the third wave of Western Region soldiers to attack the city.
"promise."
After hearing Ju Yi's order, the third wave of Western Region soldiers launched directly and attacked the city wall through building carts.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers from the Western Regions seem to be unable to solve the situation."
Tian Feng watched the siege from behind. As the carriages were destroyed, fewer and fewer soldiers were able to board the city. It was difficult for such soldiers and horses to cause damage to the city wall.
"Well, Ming Jin, please withdraw your troops. Soldiers from the Western Regions are also human beings. Since we can't defeat them, we should retreat temporarily."
Yuan Shu nodded to Tian Feng. Since he couldn't attack, he would retreat temporarily.
"Your Majesty has an order to withdraw the troops with gold."
Dian Wei on the side directly conveyed Yuan Shu's order.
"Dang Dang Dang."
"Dang Dang Dang."
"Dang Dang Dang."
The clear ringing sound resounded throughout the sky and reached Ju Yi's ears directly.
"withdraw troops."
Since the sound of gold ringing came from the direction of the main army, it proved that the withdrawal was an order from Yuan Shu, and there was no need for Ju Yi to ask the soldiers from the Western Regions to make fearless sacrifices.
"The general has ordered the entire army to retreat."
After hearing Ju Yi's order, the Western Region soldiers who were fighting immediately took action and went directly down the city wall through the building carriage. The Western Region soldiers under the city also retreated backwards and broke away from the battle.
"Want to run?
The archers shoot for me and cause as much damage to the Chinese army as possible."
Seeing the Chinese army retreating, Mifret directly ordered the archers to shoot the enemies.
"In panic but not chaos, the rear army raised their shields to resist bows and arrows, and Scholar No. 2 trebuchet used shotguns to suppress the city wall, giving the troops an opportunity to retreat."
Seeing the enemy's arrows flying, Ju Yi immediately arranged for soldiers to resist the arrows, and at the same time ordered the trebuchets that followed the army to suppress the Kushan soldiers on the city wall.
Shields were raised one after another, and trebuchets fired shotguns to attack the Kushan soldiers on the wall.
"It's a trebuchet. The archers postponed the attack and the interceptor net was raised to resist the enemy's trebuchet."
Facing the Chinese trebuchets, Mifulet was also extremely depressed. Now he faced the situation of either continuing to let the archers shoot the Chinese army under huge casualties, or giving up the attack and using interception nets to resist the trebuchet attacks.
Obviously Mifulet chose the latter. After hearing his order, the archers stopped bending their bows and temporarily retreated. The interception net in the front row appeared again, blocking the shotguns fired by the Scholar No. 2 trebuchet.
Come down.
"Accelerate the evacuation."
Seeing that the enemy had given up the attack, Ju Yi had nothing to say and directly ordered the soldiers to retreat quickly.
"Your Majesty, Ju Yi is incompetent and failed to capture the city of Gambilas. I hope your Majesty will punish you."
Ju Yi knelt in front of Yuan Shu and begged him for punishment.
"Okay, it's just a battle. There's no need to worry so much. After all, the Kushan Army has more than 200,000 troops here. It's simply impossible to win the opponent's city with 100,000 soldiers from the Western Regions."
Yuan Shu shook his head. The soldiers from the Western Regions were just there to add to their strength. If they could win the city of Gambilas, which was heavily guarded by the Kushan Army, it would be a fantasy.
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty."
Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Ju Yi also breathed a sigh of relief. Although his coming to ask for punishment was just a formality, if Yuan Shu really wanted to use this to punish him for the disadvantage of attacking the city, he could only suffer in silence.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers of the Western Regions have just been defeated and their morale is a bit low. Moreover, it is difficult to break through the interception network on the wall of the Kushan Army. Why not do this today?"
Tian Feng glanced at the city wall in front of him, and then at the soldiers from the Western Regions who had just returned from the defeat. The morale of the Western Regions soldiers was now low. It would not be impossible to force them to attack again, but whether it would be effective was another matter.
"How do you feel?"
Yuan Shu glanced at the generals around him and asked them what they thought.
"Your Majesty, what Prime Minister Tian Feng said is right. The morale of the soldiers in the Western Regions is low now. If you want to continue fighting, you have to recruit other soldiers to attack. And the opponent's interception network is very powerful against our trebuchets. This will
Sending the main force to attack the city is very disadvantageous for us.
My suggestion is to ask the craftsmen accompanying the army to immediately develop weapons that can break through the opponent's interception network, and at the same time wait for the nightmare to come before launching a general attack on the enemy."
Zhao Yun glanced at Zhao Yun and reported his thoughts directly to him.
"I don't agree with Zilong's statement."
Yan Liang suddenly stood up at this time and raised objections to Zhao Yun's words.
"If you have anything to say, just say it and tell me what you think."
Yuan Shu looked at Yan Liang, the general who first defected to him, and wondered what he was thinking.
"Your Majesty, I think China relies too much on siege equipment such as trebuchets. Once the situation in front of us occurs, we don't know how to attack. This situation is not a good sign for us.
Forging iron requires one's own strength. Even without the help of trebuchets, we can capture the city in front of us. The Polu army is ready and can attack at any time to help China capture the city of Gambilas."
Yan Liang also expressed his thoughts, and the Polu army under his command was also ready to attack at any time to help the Chinese Empire capture the city of Gambilas.
"Your Majesty, Wen Chou's mighty army is also well prepared and can attack at any time to capture the city of Gambilas."
Wen Chou was also the first to stand up and support his elder brother.
"Although the Winged Tiger Army is a new force, as long as His Majesty wants to capture Gambilas City, we are also willing to act as the vanguard and attack."
Ji Ling also stood up, knelt on one knee in front of Yuan Shu, and asked for a fight for the Yihu Army.
"Ju Yizhi is always ready to attack the city first. As long as His Majesty gives the order, the army will attack the city of Gambilas first for China."
Ju Yi also stood up and knelt down on one knee to challenge Yuan Shu.
"Your Majesty, I know that all the generals are brave and the Chinese elite are not afraid of the Kushan soldiers, but now the attack is obviously not good for us. I hope your Majesty will understand clearly."
Zhao Yun clasped his fists at Yuan Shu again. What he just said was not that his soldiers were not brave, but that the attack would be detrimental to his side and had no other meaning.
"Okay, I understand. What everyone said makes sense. The entire army retreats and sets up camp temporarily. Let's rest for a while before talking."
After considering the current situation, Yuan Shu directly issued an order for the army to temporarily retreat and camp.
