I’m The King Chapter 841: : Sunrise East (66)

Tian Fucheng looked at the city wall that was finally cleared, and let out a long breath in his heart. This is already the eighth day since he arrived in Langya. Today, he can finally attack the city wall head-on and meet the enemy hand-to-hand. Langya is a piece of flour pancake, if you bite down casually, your mouth will be full of powder, if you don't want to bite down, you will almost break your own teeth

Fortunately, the envoys from Jicheng arrived early this morning, announcing that the main force of the Qi army has captured Jicheng. Zhensuo led the expedition to the Eastern Army, but the other one was rushing to Langya day and night. This news boosted the morale of the Qi army, and also gave Tian Fucheng countless confidence.

Father has succeeded, now it's up to me

"Siege the city!" He sternly said, "The brave man wins when we meet on a narrow road. The first person to climb the city wall will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold and be promoted to three levels!"

Under the heavy reward, there will naturally be brave men, and the Qi army, whose morale is already high, is encouraged by this reward and madly rushes towards Langya City

The moat has long been filled and the barbed wire fence has been pulled out. Looking at the countless siege vehicles slowly approaching, and the Qi army swarming in with their ladders, Zheng Xiaoyang stood up from the top of the city tower and pulled out all these. God, he never took out his waist knife

"Dinner is here!" He said in a low voice

Accompanied by the sound of bang bang, a ladder was put up on the city wall, and the soldiers shouted ants to attach to it, and in a little distance, under the cover of a shield formation composed of shields, the archers of the Qi army They were shooting at the top of the city, and shields were erected on the siege vehicles, and bed crossbows were erected on half of them. The cover suppressed the firepower at the top of the city, but the other part concealed countless soldiers. These siege vehicles were so huge that they were almost at the same height as the city wall. If you let it get close, the soldiers on the siege vehicle can jump directly onto the city wall and start fighting with the defenders

Compared with the siege skills of the Donghu people, the Qi people are indeed several grades higher. Once they exert their full strength, they will be like a thunder.

The bed crossbow in the city no longer shoots at the city, but concentrates its strength. To deal with those siege vehicles, dozens of bed crossbows often gather together to shoot a siege vehicle, and only one round of shooting will knock down the siege vehicle, regardless of whether there are people or crossbows in the vehicle. They all crashed down with the collapsed siege engine

There are many opponents, it is impossible for Zheng Xiaoyang to launch a long-range attack in every direction to shoot at the opponent. He gathered 500 crossbowmen, each equipped with three crossbows, 300 people shoot, and 200 people equip crossbows. It can keep shooting continuously, and the strong force of the crossbow makes its killing distance far exceed that of the archers under the city. And what they dealt with was precisely those Qi army archers hidden behind the shield array

From the standard position of the old crossbowman, he gave an order. Countless crossbow arrows were shot into the air in the form of projectiles. Just after these crossbow arrows passed the shield formation, they suddenly turned around and swarmed towards the enemy behind the shield formation. The army shot down a large area. After several rounds, the shield formations were forced to retreat once, secondly and thirdly. Finally, when the bow and arrow could not threaten the city, the crossbowmen ignored them. Turn around and start another round of shooting

Compared with bows and arrows, the crossbow saves the arm strength of the soldiers and enables the soldiers to shoot without restriction. This advantage cannot be compared with the Qi army. The Qi army also has crossbows, but its range is not as good as Bows and arrows cannot be compared with crossbows at all

Without the threat of the Qi army's bows and arrows below the city, the defenders unscrupulously exposed half of their bodies from the city wall, throwing stones and shovels down like soldiers, until the ghosts below were crying and howling

A ladder is either pushed away by a push rod, or it is re-shot by a nail racket in the city. The sharp spear blades weighed several kilograms on each side. The soldiers of the Conquered Eastern Army put them down, and with a heavy rumbling sound, they snapped the ladder in two. The soldiers attached to the ladder died as soon as they touched them. The most miserable thing is being pierced into the body by these sharp spear blades but not dying for a while. The howling sound is horrific. The soldiers of the Qi army who are desperately struggling to die are heartbreaking to see

The dead fell to the ground, but the living followed one after another

With a bang, a siege vehicle finally leaned against the city wall, and with a bang, the shield array blocking the front exploded, hundreds of soldiers from the Qi army rushed out and jumped off the siege vehicle The city wall, slashing at the defenders of the city wall

The Zhengdong soldiers guarding this section retreated suddenly, leaving a blank space, and actually retreated these Qi troops to the city wall calmly. There was a loud sound, and a large number of crossbow arrows completely enveloped the area

The siege engine is so huge, how can people not notice it when it is close to the city wall? , and wiped out all the Qi troops on this siege vehicle

After the crossbow arrows passed, on this section of the city wall, the corpses of the Qi army were piled up one after another. The corpses of the Qi army were lifted and thrown down the city wall, regardless of whether some people were still alive, they grabbed their legs and threw them down. The city car turned into a huge torch. Under the city, the Qi army who was climbing up the siege car immediately scattered and fled. Those who escaped a little slower immediately turned themselves into burning men.

In the distance, Tian Fucheng saw a siege engine leaning against the city wall. Before he had time to be happy, he saw the corpses of Qi soldiers being thrown from the city, and the siege engine was also on fire Into nothing

One day of fierce fighting, the Qi army climbed up the city wall several times, but all of them were traps set by the Zhengdong army. Souls under the sword of the Eastern Army

The Eastern Expeditionary Army is not afraid of melee combat. Unlike the general defenders who are afraid that the attackers will climb up the city wall to occupy the bridgehead, they even deliberately loosen a certain distance to allow the enemy to climb up the city wall, and then the siege generals are still mobilizing under the city. When the soldiers and horses were about to focus on attacking this area, the Qi army who had climbed up the city had already been completely killed by those who chopped melons and vegetables

This style of play is based on the absolute confidence of the Zhengdong Army in its own combat power. In the early stage of the siege, a large number of vital forces of the enemy army were killed, which caused a huge shock to the enemy's psychology

Tian Fucheng finally learned what it means to conquer the East Army. Donghu's tens of thousands of East Conquest troops couldn't help feeling a sense of fear

From the contempt at the beginning, to the emphasis on the way, to the slightest fear now, perhaps Tian Fucheng himself has not noticed it, but he has quietly planted a seed in his heart, and he does not know when Will take root and sprout, blossom and bear fruit

Father's army is already on their way to Langya. If I haven't captured Langya before he arrives, I'm afraid that my image of courage and strategy will be greatly reduced in my father's heart. A gentle and smiling face floated in his heart. If Tian Dan is both civil and military, then his two sons have inherited his two sides respectively. The eldest son is wise and the second son is brave.

"Regardless of casualties, regardless of day and night, I will trade my life for my life and take Langya!" Tian Fucheng burst out these words from between his teeth. No matter how many casualties there are, it is worth it, because it will set the tone for the future battle, and Ye Jinger and Gao Xing will become their most important bargaining chips

Ding Wei has finally set foot on the land of Langya. At this time, he is still nearly two hundred miles away from Langya City. To march with all his strength, it will take at least five or six days for his subordinates who are almost all infantry. Fortunately, until now, he has not heard the news of Langya being destroyed. As long as he sets foot on this land, he will be able to share some of the pressure for Langya City

Ding Wei's troops were originally resting and reorganizing in western Liaoning. When they attacked Xiaoshan Pass, their troops suffered heavy casualties. Nearly one-third of the ten thousand troops were killed or injured. Now only six of them are accompanying him to rescue Langya. There are more than a thousand people, and among them, there are only more than five hundred cavalrymen, and what they have to face is as many as five or sixty thousand Qi troops, or even more. But Ding Wei has no fear at all. Knowing that foreign affairs are different, he already knew during the march that Zhang Hongyu's new first army did not participate in the final battle with Lin, but was ordered by Ye Zhong to rush to fight after receiving the urgent report from Langya. Returning, when they set foot on Langya, they may have already returned to the West of Liaoxi, and the emergency mobilization of Liaoxi, Jishi, Hejian and other places also allowed Zhengdong Mansion to recruit tens of thousands of troops in a short period of time Although these volunteer troops composed of retired veterans are not strong enough to confront the Qi army head-on, they can ensure that all parts of western Liaoning will not be invaded by the Qi army. If the Qi army can fight to the west of Liaoning

"Master Ding!" Chen Wei rode his horse from the front ~IndoMTL.com~ He got in front of Ding Wei and flew off his horse, "Just now the scouts came to report that our army was twenty miles ahead and found enemy cavalry sentry cavalry. Fang scouts fought with them, killed three people, captured one alive, and the rest fled"

"What's the situation?" Ding Wei's heart sank

"It's not that the city of Langya was broken, but that the enemy's cavalry with as many as 20,000 people is rushing towards us. It seems that the Qi army sent this cavalry when they saw that they couldn't take down the city of Langya County in a hurry. Chen Weidao who wants to make a surprise attack on Western Liaoning

"Liaoxi doesn't seem to be going on for a while, but I'm a bit unlucky!" Ding Wei exhaled fiercely, "Is there any terrain or city that can be used around here?"

"Ten miles away from our left wing is Guangping County in Langya County"

"The whole army turned around, marched in a hurry, went to Guangping County, Chen Wei, gathered all our cavalry and scouts, confused the enemy, bought time for the main force to transfer, told them, if you delay for an hour, they can run away , find a way out by yourself, and find an opportunity to meet us later"

"Understood!" Chen Wei turned around and rushed away (to be continued)
