Outside the city of Tokyo, Lu Junyi and Guan Sheng divided their forces into two groups. They fought with overwhelming momentum and finally met victoriously at the boundary of Tokyo.
Suddenly, flags were fluttering outside the city of Tokyo, and the sky was filled with dust. Looking around, the dark army of the Daqian Kingdom was everywhere. Counting the servants, there were more than 500,000 troops, and the city of Tokyo was completely surrounded.
More than 500,000 troops were as dense as ant colonies, and the camps they set up stretched for dozens of miles from north to south. Thanks to the flat plain outside Tokyo, there was enough flat land for the Daqian army to set up camp.
After the two armies met, Lu Junyi did not directly order the storming of Tokyo City, but sent servant troops to continuously prepare various siege equipment.
At the same time, on the extremely wide moat, the servant army would hold up their shields every day and continuously build wooden bridges amidst the exchanges between Daqian's army and the Tokyo City defenders.
It was not until five days later, when everything was ready, that Lu Junyi gave the order to attack the city.
Lin Nuo attached great importance to this national war with the Song Dynasty. The five tiger generals included Lu Junyi, Guan Sheng, and Qin Ming. As for the seven good generals and the nine brave generals, they basically all went with the army.
In addition, almost all the former commanders of Liang Shanbo and those with moderate combat prowess were sent to this battlefield by Lin Nuo. It can be said that in the capital of Daqian Kingdom, except for Hu Yanzhuo, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, almost all the powerful people were All the generals went out with the army.
This time, after Lu Junyi and Guan Sheng discussed it, they decided to implement the previous strategy of attacking the capital.
The army of 500,000 people was divided into ten military formations, each with 50,000 people. Generals such as Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Hua Rong, Xu Ning, Yang Zhi, and Suo Chao served as army commanders and took turns attacking the city.
Each military formation is only allowed to attack for one and a half hours. If no breakthrough progress can be made, they will retreat from the front line and change to the next square formation to attack fiercely.
In short, we cannot give the Tokyo City defenders a chance to breathe. One day and one night is not enough, so we need three days and three nights to keep the entire Tokyo City defenders in a high-intensity state of pressure.
"Siege the city!"
After everything was arranged, Lu Junyi pointed his spear in his hand and issued an siege order towards the largest city in the world.
"Soldiers, charge with me!"
Whining horns and majestic war drums sounded one after another. Wu Song, dressed in black armor and holding two swords, took the lead on horseback and rushed forward.
Beside him, Sai Rengui, Guo Sheng and Xiao Wenhou Lu Fang, each holding a shield and a weapon, led an army of fifty thousand shield-wielding servants to pour out of the camp like a tide and rush away like a long dragon.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
Arrows rained down from the top of the city. The moment Wu Song and others crossed the moat, they were attacked by an extremely dense arrow rain from the Song army.
At the same time, outside the moat, the troops of Daqian State also raised their bows and arrows, and also launched a counterattack with a rain of arrows. For a while, they suppressed the Song army's arrow rain offensive.
But the Song army seemed to know the power of the crossbows of Daqian's army. Not long after being suppressed, rows of shield soldiers appeared on the city wall, setting up shield defense formations, supporting their own crossbowmen, and continued to attack the city. The Daqian army started shooting.
It has to be said that the defensive capabilities of the Song Army were not a bit stronger than that of the Liao Army. Before they even got close to the city wall, the first army formation led by Wu Song lost thousands of people, and the casualties were heavy.
"Put up a ladder and attack the city!"
The army finally rushed to the city wall. Wu Song roared, his muscles bulging like steel, and one person directly carried a more than 30-meter-long ladder and set it up on the city wall.
"rush!"
The next moment, he threw away one of the knives and bit the other in his mouth. Holding a shield he had picked up at some point, he rushed towards the city wall first.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
Nearly a hundred arrows shot out instantly, almost filling the shield above Wu Song's head, but even so, they still couldn't stop him from climbing.
"Roll the log, roll the log!"
A captain's shout rang out from the city wall. The next moment, a rolling log weighing hundreds of kilograms fell directly from the city wall and arrived in front of Wu Song in an instant.
"Get out of my way!"
Wu Song roared angrily, and the long knife in his hand suddenly slashed out. The violent internal force attached to the blade, directly cutting the rolling log falling from the sky into two pieces.
The rolling log was cut off, but the huge impact attached to it still caused Wu Song to become unstable, slipping from the ladder and falling to the ground.
"Oh shit!"
Wu Song rolled on the ground, relieved of the impact, cursed angrily, glanced at the Daqian soldiers who were setting up ladders one after another and began to attack the city, and then without any hesitation, climbed up the ladder again.
"Fire oil, pour the fire oil!"
Seeing Wu Song, a fierce man, charging up again, the defenders on the city wall were extremely nervous. The next moment, basins of scalding kerosene fell from the sky and poured down on Wu Song's head.
"Fuck!"
Wu Song turned sideways and quickly fell down from the ladder. After all, he was also a top expert. Facing the kerosene, he could rely on his internal strength to resist, but the war had just begun. If he consumed a lot of his internal strength now, the rest of the war would be difficult.
It's going to be dangerous.
After landing on the ground, his body flashed rapidly to avoid the pouring fire oil. Wu Song climbed up the ladder again without believing in evil.
Only this time, the captain on the city wall didn't even speak, and some soldiers spontaneously attacked him.
What greeted him this time were pots of biochemical weapons exuding a strong smell, the scientific name is golden juice!
"Fuck you!"
Looking at the special liquid that exuded a strong odor and shone with yellow light, Wu Song's face swelled with veins. For the third time, he took the initiative to fall down and quickly avoided it.
After being kicked off the ladder three times in a row, Wu Song felt a little afraid of the majestic city of Tokyo for the first time.
Looking around, dozens of ladders have been erected on the walls of Tokyo, but not a single soldier from the Qian Kingdom could climb up the walls, and they were all knocked down.
When they first attacked the capital, although the opponent also had various defensive materials, perhaps the Liao army lacked experience in defending the city and felt panicked during the defense. The cooperation between the soldiers was not skilled, and they could always find the Daqian soldiers.
Chance.
But the Song army defending the city this time was different. The cooperation between the various arms was extremely skilled. It was obviously a big battle, but there was a sense of orderliness, busy but not chaotic, and the cooperation was extremely skillful.
Even in the distance, the trebuchets of the Daqian army had been set up and began to drop huge rocks into Tokyo. The Song troops just shrank subconsciously, and then continued to do what they should do, not letting any Daqian
Soldiers storm the city wall!
It seems that these soldiers have developed an instinct for defending the city!
