Chapter 229
The next day, it was not until noon that the millions of troops completed all the siege equipment.
When the old man and the player saw that all the siege equipment had been assembled, they were eager to carry a lot of siege equipment towards Anci City.
Just as they walked dozens of miles away from Anci County, only ten miles away from them, Yang Tao held the Princess of Yiyang Liu Ming in his arms and rode a white horse, and took the 1oo Duowei to Anci County.
The horses of the personal guards were given by Ji Yuan, the subordinate of Fangcun, and they were originally the horses of the personal guards.
After getting the horses, Yang Tao couldn't wait to lead his men to Anci County early in the morning, so that he could go out early to collect food.
Unfortunately, Yang Tao missed the opportunity to appear in the enemy immediately, which also made him face a tough battle next.
Yang Tao rode his horse back to Anci City, returned to the mighty city lord's mansion, helped Liu Ming off the horse, and then took Liu Ming and a group of personal guards into the city lord's mansion, and sent someone to inform Gao Shun and others of the humanitarian city lord's mansion to discuss matters.
But before Yang Tao sat down to rest, he was entangled by someone.
After Kou Xuan, wearing a navy blue dress, met Liu Ming, he said a few words, blocked Yang Tao's way, and asked bluntly: "Ship Jiang Qu, you don't keep your word. I promised not to make things difficult for my mother, but you took my mother to the battlefield. What should you do?"
Faced with the questioning, Yang Tao couldn't be angry.
Looking at Kou Xuan who looked at her like a proud princess in front of her, looking up at her with a melon-shaped face with wide eyes, Yang Tao had nothing else except thinking she was cute.
Seeing Yang Tao staring at her, a look of disgust flashed in Kou Xuan's eyes and said, "What are you looking at..."
Liu Ming, who was beside him, saw his daughter scolding Yang Tao without hesitation, hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her, stopping Kou Xuan from continuing to speak before looking at Yang Tao. Ruyu's face showed a embarrassed expression, and her two delicate red lips slightly opened, saying, "Jiang Qu Shuai, my daughter..."
Before she could finish speaking, a rapid drum sounded, which shocked Yang Tao, who was about to come forward to say something, and looked to the east where the drum sound came.
When Yang Tao thought of something, his face changed. Before he could talk to Liu Ming and the others, he led his guards to the east of the city.
At the same time, the generals who also heard the drums in the city rushed to gather some people, and some brought their troops to the city walls they were responsible for to support them, most of them heading towards the East City.
"Dongdongdongdongdong..." The rapid drum sound spread around. Not only did the drum sound appear in the east, but there were drum sounds in the other three directions, alarming the Yellow Turbans in Anci City.
The drum sound was the alarm of the enemy. After Gao Shun captured Anci City, he arranged some big drums on the four walls. As long as the enemy appeared, the soldiers would beat the big drums, and the people in the city knew that the enemy had appeared. Yang Tao didn't care much about this arrangement before. It seemed that no troops in Youzhou would attack Anci County, but he didn't expect it to be used at this time.
Yang Tao and others rode their horses out of the inner city and headed straight for the east city wall.
Hearing the rapid drum sounds on all sides, Yang Tao burst into cold sweat. Even though he had not reached the city wall, he knew that there were a lot of troops in the enemy. He couldn't help but secretly glad that Gao Shun had made careful arrangements. If there were no such drum sounds, only a few thousand troops on the city wall could not support the reinforcements in the city, the enemy would break through the outer city. At that time, facing the enemy with an absolute advantage in the number of enemies, Yang Tao and others could only withdraw from Anci City.
There are many people in the outer city. Along the way, Yang Tao and others met a lot. Now they don’t have time to open up the road, so they can only shout and let passers-by make way. After gathering a battalion of people supporting the east wall, they took them to the gate of the east city.
When Yang Tao came to the city wall, he saw that the city wall was already in a mess. Obviously, during the period when they came to help, the enemy troops attacked the city wall. The Yellow Turban soldiers on the city wall could no longer support it, and the enemy began to attack the city. And there were also muffled sounds coming from the city gate. It must be that the enemy outside the city was hitting the city gate with siege cars.
Without thinking too much, Yang Tao took out the painting halberd and got off the war horse. While instructing people to hold the city gate, he and the generals of the troops of a battalion brought most of the remaining troops to the support roads on both sides of the city gate.
As soon as I walked a few steps, a group of enemy troops rushed down with weapons.
As soon as Yang Tao saw it, he knew that the guards on the city wall had almost died. Now he could only kill the city wall to regain the outer city wall. Otherwise, Yang Tao and others might rush out of the city, but the Yellow Turban family in the city was extremely dangerous.
The two major camps of the Yellow Turbans and the Eastern Han Dynasty are originally hostile, and they will also get points if they kill the Yellow Turban family. Even if most of the players in the Eastern Han Dynasty will not attack the old and the weak, as long as a small part of them can kill millions of Yellow Turban families in the city.
Yang Tao must not let this happen. A trace of madness flashed in his eyes. He rushed forward with a loud shout, and when he came to the enemy soldiers, he jumped up and slashed down with an axe to slash Huashan.
"Clink..."
"Sir..."
The sound of weapons breaking and the sound of flesh and blood being cut sounded at the same time. Yang Tao cut off the weapons in the hands of several enemy soldiers with a painting, and slashed on the enemy's body without diminishing force. A large piece of blood spurted out, splashing Yang Tao all over, while the enemy troops flew away from the support road and landed on the blue brick floor below, making dull sounds.
"Bang bang bang..."
As the continuous sound of heavy objects falling to the ground sounded, Yang Tao, who was covered in blood, flew away the painted halberd in his hand, knocked the enemy soldiers on the support road one by one, fell down the support road, and fell into a bloody ball.
In just over a dozen seconds, Yang Tao rushed through the dozens of meters long road and went up to the city wall. The soldiers following him began to enter the city wall and started fighting with the enemy soldiers.
I stood firmly on the city wall, and it was very difficult for the soldiers to gradually advance along both sides. The walls of Anci City were only 6 meters wide, and at this time, the city walls were filled with people from the Eastern Han camp. The 3ooo Yellow Turban soldiers who had originally guarded the city had all been killed.
Yang Tao waved his weapons and rushed left and right to make the soldiers behind him rush out less than a few dozen meters away. At this time, Yang Tao waved his halberd to kill several enemy soldiers, and his arms were painful without realizing it. A heart-wrenching tingling pain came, which made Yang Tao's mouth twitch. He glanced at his arm and saw that the white cloth wrapped around his left little arm was blood red.
"It seems that it was exerting too much force and tearing the wound apart." Yang Tao thought in his heart, frowned, but his right hand did not stop, and kept waving the halberd to kill the enemy soldiers who rushed up.
Taking advantage of the gap, Yang Tao looked at the situation around him, but his face became even more serious.
Outside the East City, more than 30,000 enemy soldiers were constantly rushing towards the city wall. In addition to Yang Tao's battalion, there was also a battalion of troops on another city gate on the east city wall. However, the two battalions had only more than 50,000 people, and they were not the opponent of the enemy's more than 30,000 people. Originally, Yang Tao thought that he could take back the city wall by taking advantage of the narrow wall, which was not conducive to the action of the large group of troops and horses, and then he saw the siege equipment outside the city, Yang Tao's eyes shrank and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
Not only were there countless primary siege ladders from the enemy's troops on the entire East City Wall, but what Yang Tao couldn't believe was that there were several giants outside the city, three primary well railings and a primary bridge craft.
The primary well railing is more than ten meters high and the function of the arrow tower. It has two upper and lower layers, each with dozens of square meters, and dozens of archers can stand. The upper layer can provide archers with enough heights as the primary city wall, so that the archers on the city wall lose their height advantages, and at the same time, it can expose other people on the city wall to the archers' sight. It is a powerful tool to suppress enemy soldiers on the city wall when siegeing.
The primary well railing is nothing, and the biggest trouble for Yang Tao is the primary bridge car.
A primary bridge craft can build a wooden bridge on the primary city wall, which is equivalent to opening a road for the enemy. If this is the case, the more than 30,000 troops under the city will go directly to the city wall, and it will be difficult for Yang Tao and others to have the opportunity to regain control of the city wall. Fortunately, the bridge craft is extremely bulky and requires many strong men to operate at the same time to build a wooden bridge. It is only half completed at this time. Yang Tao still has the opportunity to stop the bridge craft from erecting the bridge. However, there is no powerful general around Yang Tao at present, and his left hand is injured and cannot use too much force.
Yang Tao, who had been attacking the bridge car that had been unable to get close to dozens of meters away for a while, saw that the bridge car could build the bridge soon, was anxious and kept patrolling around, hoping that a powerful general could take action.
However, Yang Tao was destined to not be able to wait, because at this time, there were a large number of people sieges on all sides of the city walls. Although the other three sides were not the main attack direction, there were 20,000 people, and all the generals were too busy to take care of themselves. Who could solve the crisis in Dongcheng?
"It seems that you have to do it yourself!" Yang Tao said intimately, and then used the chaotic formation schema skill. Now the chaotic formation schema has reached the second level, with a coverage range of 30 meters, which is enough to cover the bridge-building trucks dozens of meters away.
Yang Tao took advantage of the chaos around him, endured the pain of tearing his left hand, held the halberd in both hands and rushed forward with strength.
The knife handle on a well railing outside the city saw a general under the name Yang Da rushing around, splitting the chaotic crowd and rushing towards the bridge car, and hurriedly letting the archers attack Yang Tao.
Yang Tao had just rushed out more than ten meters, and a rain of arrows hit him, blocking his pace of progress. Looking at the bridge-building car not far away, he was about to build the wooden bridge on the city wall, and it would take soon to build the wooden bridge. He was extremely annoyed, but with the rain of arrows blocking him, Yang Tao moved forward very slowly, so he would definitely not be able to stop it before the wooden bridge was built.
Once the wooden bridge is built, it is difficult to destroy it. Not to mention that the wooden bridge itself has a great durability, even if the people coming from the continuous impact will make Yang Tao unable to get close to the wooden bridge half a step, he will be surrounded by the people coming from the impact. At that time, even if Yang Tao is an intermediate general, he will not be able to jump to death by random swords.
"Since you want to die, I will do it for you!" Yang Tao's angrily blow cleared the surrounding soldiers, took out the deer-antorn bow and moved the generals' and technicians' and pearl arrows, and quickly shot the arrows. A series of dim light disappeared like lightning and appeared again, hitting the archers on the well railing, for example. In less than 5 seconds, Yang Tao, who was angry, shot dozens of arrows, and then killed all the archers on the well railing, and then shot another arrow at the only surviving person, the Axe Gang's leader.
Dao Barzi was originally very proud to watch Yang Tao being blocked by the archers, but unexpectedly, Yang Tao killed dozens of archers around him in 5 seconds. He was the only one left. He quickly realized that it was too late to dodge when he was dodging. A feather arrow penetrated the sky and shot the knife handle's neck, piercing it through. A damage number of critical strikes and fatal blows appeared. Dao Barzi, a full-blooded 4-star junior general, was killed by Yang Tao in seconds before he could fight.
He shot everyone on the top floor of the well railing. Yang Tao no longer delayed it. He put away his bow and arrow and immediately rushed away the riots on the road. When the wooden bridge was about to be built on the city wall, he jumped out. At the critical moment, a lonely halberd flashed across the painted halberd and hit the wooden bridge.
"boom!"
"Click!"
Two huge sounds sounded one after another. After Yang Tao's hand hit the bridge rig, he successfully touched the knockout characteristics of the rafting rig. The knockout rig was pushed several inches away in the vibration. The craftsmen on it were also knocked out, and the wooden board fell on the city wall, tilted obliquely, more than 5 meters away from the city head, and the bridge was declared a failure.
The bridge cart also suffered damage during the vibration just now and was no longer usable.
After solving the biggest crisis, Yang Tao breathed a sigh of relief and began to fight against the enemy step by step, gradually gaining a foothold on the city wall.
Until sunset, people outside the city heard that they could not conquer the city and then yelled to withdraw their troops.
Seeing the enemy troops outside the city retreating like a tide, Yang Tao, who was like a bloody man, sat on the ground, leaning against the female wall, gasping violently.
