Chapter 69 Bloody City Head (2)

The soldiers of the Nanping Army rushed across the moat in the rain of arrows and smashed the shield in their hands to the ground. The soldiers who rushed over immediately stacked the shields on the shields of the previous soldiers, forming a small cover, revealing only a small window for shooting.

The Nanping Army archers who were catching up quickly ran into the bunker and began to shoot suppressively at the battlements. The Yingzhou Army archers on the city immediately counterattacked, but the arrows often stuck to the enemy shield near the window.

At the command of Liu Fu, the soldiers who had already prepared set out immediately. They took the bamboo brought from Jiangling and divided into many groups to run down the city. One soldier in each group ran in his head with the bamboo, and the remaining four soldiers ran behind him. The bamboo was carefully selected, with all the roots seven or eight meters long. The bamboo pole has a certain toughness, ensuring that it will not bend and not deform after bearing the weight.

The archers of the Nanping Army concentrated their arrows to suppress more than ten of the battlements, providing cover for the soldiers. The archers of the Yingzhou Army tried their best to fight back, but the archers of the Nanping Army would rather be injured themselves than give up their attack on the battlements. Anyway, their subsequent strength was continuous, enough to suppress the archers on the top of the city.

At this time, there were more than twenty groups of Nanping Army who launched the charge at the same time. The soldier holding the bamboo ran faster and faster. Relying on the support of the bamboo, he rushed up the city wall. The remaining four soldiers held the bamboo poles tightly, providing strong support for the charging soldiers.

The soldiers of Yingzhou soldiers on guard on the top of the city were blocked by arrow rain and did not dare to observe them at all. Anyway, they did not hear the movement of the ladder hitting the cliff. The enemy probably could not have rushed up.

Just as they comforted themselves, the soldiers of the Nanping Army under the city had already rushed to the marching point. They pulled out their knives and jumped towards the horse path from the marching point.

At this time, the people near the battlements were all the civilians who were preparing to throw stones. They were suppressed by the archers of the Nanping Army and were hiding behind the battlements, trembling, and there were no weapons in their hands. When they saw the Nanping Army rushing to the city, their first reaction was not to resist, but to turn around and run away, and then they were chopped to death by the Nanping Army from behind!

Yin Zhiping quickly ordered the soldiers on the city to come forward, but the archers of the Nanping Army kept shooting archery rain around with their own breakthrough as the center. Although the soldiers in Yingzhou were brave, the enemy's arrow rain was very dense and they were unable to rush past for a while, and even less able to clear the enemy soldiers running up to the city.

At this time, five or six ladders were leaning against the battlement controlled by the Nanping Army. The soldiers of the Nanping Army began to climb up the city from the ladder. Seeing that there were more and more enemy troops on the city wall, Dong Zunhui, who was watching the battle on the city tower, shouted loudly: "Archester, shoot at the top of the city!"

Hearing his orders, the archers on the city tower subconsciously obeyed the orders and no longer shot in vain at the enemy archers under the city under the shield protection, but turned to the top of the city.

There were 150 archers on the city tower, and 150 arrows were shot out at the same time. Even the guys in the Matrix who could dodge bullets could not stand it. More than 20 Nanping light infantry who rushed up earlier were shot to death. The soldiers who climbed up from the ladder held shields, but under the concentrated attack of the archers, they had no ability to expand the breakthrough and could only fight hard on the battlements.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the soldiers of Yingzhou Army rushed up immediately and fought with the enemy. The archers of the Nanping Army under the city were worried and did not dare to shoot into the crowd anymore, so they could only suppress them in the distance. There were many soldiers of Yingzhou Army on the top of the city, and they were approaching the battlements little by little, and were about to force them down the city wall. At this moment, Fan Tong rushed up.

Fan Tong is the Du Yuhou, and under normal circumstances there is no need to participate in the charge at all. However, the old boss Liu Fu said it very clearly that someone must take responsibility for the battle of Shuanghe Town. If Gao Baozheng wants to be charged with incompetent command, then Fan Tong must perform well. His performance must make those who support Gao Baozheng have nothing to say. What is the greatest military achievement at present? It is to take Yingzhou City!

So today Fan Tong not only contributed his 100 elite soldiers, but also personally took the lead and rushed to the top of the city.

When he rushed to the top of the city, he found that his personal soldiers were retreating step by step, and the space was getting smaller and smaller. Fan Tong shouted: "Defend on the spot, don't retreat!"

While shouting, Fan Tong led his own soldiers to rush forward. Fan Tong's soldiers were all fighting men who were proficient in martial arts, and were well-equipped. They were all wearing leather armor and holding fine iron swords. They formed a small circular formation and continued to expand outward. Everyone was always training together and cooperated with each other. In addition, the space on the city was limited, so the soldiers of Yingzhou were beaten to retreat continuously by them!

The soldiers of the Nanping Army kept climbing up from the squad behind them, and some archers rushed to the top of the city and shot at the Yingzhou Army soldiers on the city.

At this time, the archers on the top of Yingzhou City shot twelve and three rounds, and had long lost their strength and could not suppress the enemy's attack. When Yin Zhiping saw that the situation was not good, he did not care about commanding in the city tower. He hurriedly led his personal soldiers to fight with Fan Tong's troops in person, and then the general's face stabilized.

Dong Zunhui, An Shouzhong, and Wang Xichang quickly ordered their men to gather under the city to prepare for reinforcements. Fortunately, the alarm bell had sounded, and the troops resting under the city had already arrived under the city wall and went up to the city to fight in turn. An Shouzhong and Wang Xichang were still going to charge with their personal soldiers, but were stopped by Dong Zunhui.

Dong Zunhui said loudly: "The horse road on the city is so wide, it can only accommodate such a few troops. No matter how many people in the city, we are just watching them fight and cheering the Yingzhou army. We cannot join the battle at all. If the enemy loses one, we will add one from the bottom of the city. If this continues, it will become a war of attrition, and the number of enemies is the dominant!"

Wang Xichang nodded repeatedly and asked quickly: "I don't know what Brother An can do?"

Dong Zunhui sneered: "There is no good way? Just open the city and work hard. Let's go down to the city immediately, open the city gate, rush out of the city, cut off the bamboo poles and ladders under the city, and cut off their retreat!"

An Shouzhong asked in surprise: "When the city gate is opened, what if the enemy rushes in?"

"The brave ones win when we meet on a narrow road!" Dong Zunhui said loudly: "As long as we act decisively, the enemy will not have time to react. Besides, with a moat blocking there, how many people and horses will come to the enemy through the floating bridge, and they are not our opponents at all! Xinchen (the word An Shouzhong) and Huaxuan (the word Wang Xichang), dare to go out of the city with me to kill the enemy?!"
