Chapter 8: Siege for days (2)

The army of the Western Regions will indeed attack the city for days.

After Li Chao came back, he learned that Zangba had launched an attack on the city, but it was in vain and suffered heavy casualties. This made Li Chao extremely depressed. Moreover, according to the patrol report, although the east side of Fengxiang City was left unencircled, there were no defenders and

The people fled the city for their lives.

Li Chao understood that the Fengxiang defenders were preparing to defend Fengxiang City to the death.

So Li Chao and Zang Ba discussed changing their strategies.

Surround the east side of Fengxiang as well. In this way, Fengxiang City will be completely surrounded.

Then they planned to attack the city in several days.

At dawn, Li Chao ordered to surround the east side of Fengxiang City first, and then prepared to attack the city.

After the troops from the Western Regions formed their formation, Li Chao and Zang Ba fought in front of the formation.

Li Chao now knew that the unknown general standing next to Shangguan Minghong with a face of resentment was Lin Yi.

Li Chao knew it but didn't point it out.

Li Chao pointed his horsewhip at Shangguan Minghong and said: "General Shangguan, I will give you and the soldiers and civilians in the city a way to survive, but you will not leave! I will give you one last chance. If you dedicate the city, I will commit no crime. If you still persist in your stubbornness, I will break the law."

After the city, I will slaughter the city for three days!"

Shangguan Minghong said: "Child Li Chao, you have been defeated in consecutive battles. You, the defeated general, should take these remaining defeated generals and flee for your life, instead of shouting here!"

Lin Yi made a gesture of contempt towards Li Chao.

Li Chao suppressed his anger and said to Zang Ba: "General Zang, prepare to attack the city. Attack for two hours and withdraw your troops. After lunch, it will cool down before attacking again. Attack twice a day. Attack once every other day at night. Non-stop.

Consume them. Also, when they are not attacking at night, they will have people shout gold and drums in all directions, and then shoot rockets into the city, disturbing the city and making the chickens and dogs restless. It will make it difficult for them to fall asleep. Let’s see how long they can last!”

Zang Ba said: "Yes!"

Then General Zangba waved his hand, and dozens of enemy war drums beat simultaneously.

The sound of the drums was earth-shattering.

So the eight artillery pieces fired "roaringly" first, hitting a spot on the city wall. Stone debris flew off the city wall.

More than a dozen catapults also began to throw stones. The huge stones flew towards Fengxiang City with destructive force.

Some smashed on the city wall, causing the city wall to tremble. Some smashed on the battlements, and the battlements were smashed to pieces. The flesh and blood of the soldiers on the city flew everywhere. Some flew into the city and destroyed the houses close to the city wall.



Two huge rocks flying towards Lin Yi and others.

When the boulder was two feet away from the city wall, Zuo Chaoyang struck out two air dragons and destroyed one of the boulders. Lin Yi swung his sword several times, and the powerful sword energy shattered the other boulder.

At this time, thousands of enemy archers fired rockets at the city head and the city.

Some shot at the soldiers on top of the city, and some shot into the city.

But Su Jin'er and the others had organized the people in the city. So when the rocket fell in the city, Su Jin'er and the people put it out in time.

So the rocket is not very effective.

The defenders on the city also began to fight back with artillery and arrows.

Suddenly, artillery roared below the city and thousands of arrows fired.

Enemy soldiers were also constantly bombarded with blood and flesh by the defenders' artillery fire.

Soldiers from both sides were constantly hit by arrows and died in the dense rain of arrows. Some soldiers guarding the city were hit by arrows and fell from the top of the city screaming from all over the city.

The cannon fire shook the world, and the arrows covered the sky!

The two sides exchanged fire and bombardment for about a while, and the Tibetan Ba ​​waved his flag again. Dozens of enemy trumpeters raised their necks and blew their attack horns. Then the enemy held up their shields and ran towards the city wall with shouts of killing.

The enemy troops launched a massive siege from the front and east sides of the city at the same time. There were 30,000 enemy troops on each side taking turns to attack the city.

Lin Yi, Zuo Chaoyang and Shangguan Minghong led people to guard the front, while Tian Ying, Miaoxue, Zeng Tengyun and the others guarded the east side.

The enemy rushed to the moat one after another. They put wooden planks on the moat to pave the way. Then they pushed rams, ladders and other siege equipment to the bottom of the city.

Then the enemy team after team climbed up the ladder to strengthen the city...

The defenders on the city stoned the enemy troops and poured kerosene on them. The enemies howled miserably and kept rolling down the ladder. One group died after another, and they continued to attack the city head like crazy...

The two sides launched a brutal offensive and defensive battle, and the scene was extremely tragic.

In order to injure and kill more enemies, Lin Yi used "All Things Return to the Clan" many times. The swords flew down like a torrential rain on the enemy group, and the enemy's flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The enemies who were killed directly were left with corpses and rivers of blood.

This also greatly boosted the morale of the defenders.

The enemy was stunned to death.

Some enemies turned around and tried to escape, but died under the sword of the supervising team.

The enemy had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to attack the city at the risk of their lives.

At this moment, life is like a piece of grass in the brutal war.

The enemy's attack lasted for two hours before calling for gold and retreating.

The city was filled with smoke.

The enemy's bodies below the city were piled up like mountains, and dozens of siege vehicles and ladders were either in pieces or emitting fireworks.

Finally defeated the enemy's fierce attack on the city, the defenders will burst into cheers.

But Shangguan Minghong was not happy.

Judging from his experience, this is just the beginning.

Shangguan Minghong's face was bloody and there were two arrow wounds on his body. He took off his helmet, spat bloody saliva on the ground and said to Lin Yi: "I estimate that the enemy will attack the city in the afternoon. Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or even at night,

The enemy army will continue to attack the city, killing ten thousand enemies and losing three thousand. We simply cannot withstand such consumption. Perhaps, we cannot hold it even for ten days..."

Lin Yi looked at him with firm eyes and said: "Brother, it is useless to think too much now. Now, if the enemy attacks once, we will defend with all our strength. If we can defend for one more day, we will have hope!"

Shangguan Minghong said: "Brother, is there really hope?"

Lin Yi said: "It's true!"

Shangguan Minghong said: "Even if there is no place, I will live and die with the city!"

Sure enough, it was as expected by Shangguan Minghong. At Shenshi, the enemy launched an attack on the city from the front and east again. They still used artillery and arrows first, and then a large number of enemy troops took turns attacking the city.

Lin Yi and the city defenders will once again fight hard to defend themselves against the enemy.

The battle continued until dusk, and the enemy was finally driven back again.

Although countless enemy troops were killed and injured, the defenders also suffered more than 2,000 casualties a day.

This made everyone feel heavy.

More than 2,000 people were killed or injured in one day. The total number of defenders in Fengxiang City is only 14,500. The enemy is attacking the city continuously at all costs. How many days can they hold on?

After the enemy troops retreated, Lin Yi stood at the top of the city.

He glanced at the piles of enemy corpses under the city, and then cast his gaze toward the setting sun on the horizon.

The setting sun is like blood.

It adds a bloody atmosphere.

Lin Yi said in his heart: "Yulang, Peiling, where are you now? How many of the eighteen blood letters have you sent? I hope you will hurry up, and faster. Otherwise, Fengxiang will not be able to hold on for long..."

After repelling the enemy's massive siege twice in one day, the people were exhausted.

I wanted to take advantage of the night to rest and recuperate, but unexpectedly, after dark, drums suddenly sounded loudly from all directions in the city.

People thought that the enemy was going to attack the city at night.

Everyone rushed to the top of the city and realized that it was the enemy troops who were harassing them.

People can only plug their ears with things.

But the beasts in the city were so frightened that they screamed all night long.

It was a wild night, and most people didn't sleep well.

After breakfast the next morning, the enemy began to attack the city again!
