Chapter 1724: Spring tide comes with rain at night, arrow tide covers the sky, blood splatters like rain

At this time, the army of Monk Wanyan Chen behind them was less than half a day away from Jinan.

Monk Wanyan Chen has already lost the driving force he brought along the way. Everyone in the army has a war horse. Therefore, although the Red Coat Army marched desperately this day and night, the distance between them is inevitably getting closer and closer!

At this time, on the top of Jinan City, Wanyan Xielie was on the tall city tower, looking at the enemy troops charging towards him below. At this time, he had already received news from his younger brother Wanyan Chen.

As long as he withstands for this half day, his brother's army would arrive immediately. At that time, the Red Coat Army was attacked by two troops inside and outside under the absolute disadvantage of military strength. They would all be destroyed without a night!

"Half a day...hum!"

At this time, Wanyan Xielie looked at the Red Jacket Army below and couldn't help but snorted coldly.

With these 20,000 people, I want to attack my Jinan City?

...

Just when Wanyan Xielie felt that he personally led his troops to defend Jinan, and under the defense of 30,000 soldiers in his hands, Jinan City would never be lost.

This made Wanyan Xielie suddenly widen his eyes!

Just in front of him, one hundred steps away from the Jinan city wall. Seven thousand people came out in a row, staying behind the soldiers carrying the ladder and rushing towards the city wall.

The seven square formations stopped far away from the two arrows of the city wall defenders, and then they saw the soldiers kneeling on one knee, not knowing what the purpose was.

These seven neat square formations made Wanyan Xielie feel a little confused, and then a strange feeling of inexplicable strangeness emanated from his heart.

After that, when the attacking troops under the city rushed up all the way, Wanyan Xielie took a breath of cold air again in surprise!

I saw that under the Jinan city wall, the other party sent only a two thousand troops to attack the city. However, this army was calm and powerful in carrying the ladder, and was calm and powerful.

When they got close, Wanyan Xielie clearly saw that their bodies were actually wrapped in extremely thick armor!

These soldiers were like the Jin Dynasty's Iron Pagoda, with two layers of armor wrapped around them!

Wanyan Xielie saw this army with neat uniforms and distinctive armor. They were moving with a steady aura as fast as a mountain, slowly approaching the city wall. At this time, a cloud of doubt suddenly appeared in his heart.

Is such a unit really the legendary ragged and hungry thief--the Red Coat Army?

...

Seeing this scene, Wanyan Xielie instinctively felt that something seemed wrong.

This Red Coat Army was very different from what he imagined, and the way the other party attacked the city was not like ordinary thieves, swarming like a tide, and the overall situation was chaotic and lacking command and dispatch.

The army in front of him was obviously well-trained and well-equipped. Not only did they not have a trace of the peasant army, but they were even more stern than most of the Jin army!

What's even more terrifying is that the momentum they emit...

When Wanyan series thought of this, he immediately became secretly alert.

Then, he saw the ladder of the infantry opposite, which had entered the range of forty feet below the city!

As long as they move forward a little further, they enter the range of arrow shooting on the city wall. Wanyan Xielie immediately let the archers waiting for the city wall be prepared to shoot arrows!

...

In ancient wars, the defending city always had a huge advantage. They were often able to firmly defend the city by less than one-fifth of the opponent's number of soldiers.

This is also the reason why all towns and towns of all dynasties were willing to spend huge manpower and material resources to build city walls before the invention of artillery.

Because on the high city wall, the stones thrown at will generate huge kinetic energy due to the height difference. Also, when the bows and arrows are shooting, the archers are above the city wall, their field of vision is wider and the shooting distance is much further than when shooting from low to high under the city wall.

It is precisely because of this that bows and arrows and rolling wooden stones have always been essential magic weapons for defending the city.

Today, Wanyan Xielie faced the Red Jacket Army attacking the city walls south of Jinan. He gathered a large number of elite archers in the city, just to give them a fierce head-on blow when the siege troops approached the city walls!

...

At this moment, the distance below the Jinan city wall.

Generals and officers Shen Mo and Yang Miaozhen in the Red Coat Army's original formation looked at the large number of Red Coat Army soldiers in front of them, slowly approaching towards the city wall.

This time, Military Commander Chen listed a dignified formation and decisively used the most powerful force of their army to attack Jinan, the most powerful city in Shandong!

All the seven thousand steel-arm crossbows in the entire army arranged seven neatly square formations of thousands of people under the city wall.

At this moment, the troops siege forward were the two thousand heavy armored infantry troops led by Yue Laosan!

The result of months of hard planning and hard training of the Red Coat Army, at this moment, exploded violently under the city of Jinan. This was the roar from the peasant army, and it was an unprecedented powerful siege by the Shandong uprising army!

...

Just as the heavy armored infantry under the city approached within thirty feet, Wanyan Xielie on the city immediately raised his right hand.

Beside him, a row of trolleyers also picked up the long horns in his hand.

They just waited for the time when the General Manager Du's hand fell, and the defenders on the city would fire thousands of arrows at the same time!

At that time, even if the opponent's heavy armored soldiers were wearing several layers of armor, they would not be able to approach the city wall in the rain of arrows that was hitting their faces!

However, at this moment, a scene suddenly happened in front of Wanyan Xielie's eyes that shocked him!

In the seven square formations at a distance under the city, it instantly looked like black veil, and the seven-faced huge shadows rose into the air!

I saw the shadow burst into the air quickly, like a dark cloud that was approaching rapidly.

Then, in Wanyan Xielie's eyes, they rushed towards the Jinan city wall at an extremely high speed in the air and rushed down from a high point!

When the crossbow arrows of the steel-arm crossbow began to fall in the air. When the tips of seven thousand sharp arrows all turned towards the direction of the Jinan city wall, Wanyan Xielie's eyes seemed to have strangely paused in the air.

Then, they rushed down at the city wall below with extremely strong force!

...

At this moment, Wanyan Xielie's face was shocked, and he thought in disbelief:

"What is this? How can I shoot so far? And it looks so powerful?"
