Chapter 991 I can't wait to abandon the city and flee

Such a battle is really wretched and aggrieved.

The officers and men of the three armies attacked the city with high walls and thick walls, but they still suffered heavy casualties and could not get the slightest benefit.

Seeing that more and more soldiers died in the aisle, the vicissitudes of Zuo Xianwang's cheeks were full of melancholy.

One by one, the lives were gone in the blink of an eye, and he couldn't wait to personally lead the army out of the city, and cut off Lin Kaiyue's head with a knife to vent his hatred.

How could he tell him rationally that of the three Tang armies outside the city, only the Tang army under Lin Kaiyue began to attack, and the real bitter battle was still to come.

If they acted recklessly regardless of casualties, no matter how many Turkic defenders in the city were, it would still be difficult for them to hold the surrendered city under the continuous onslaught of the Tang army.

Regardless of the lives and deaths of the soldiers will only increase the casualties and make the situation of the defenders in the city more and more dangerous.

Hold on!

They can only lead the defenders, fight desperately with the help of the strong city walls, and consume the living strength of the Tang army through time, and perhaps it will be possible to change the passive situation in front of them.

The three armies were ordered.

Under the dense rain of arrows of the Tang army, the defenders risked their lives, emerged from under the shields and quickly drew their bows and shots, and a rain of arrows shot out, suppressing the edge of the blocking Tang army.

The long-shot and short arrows of the crossbows and longbows of both sides crisscrossed the sky, clanging and falling on each other's shields and piercing into the armor.

The Tang army's catapult threw boulders, shook the sky and thundered, and fell on the wall battlements and in the walkway.

The Turkic defenders under the shield smashed by the boulder fell to the ground and were covered in blood and flesh, the earth-shattering thunder exploded, and the iron splashed into the defenders' bodies, which was even more miserable, blood flowed from the wounds, and the wounded lay on the ground convulsive, wailing and trembling.

The spears fired from the bed crossbows of the Turks pierced the shield of the Tang army, and the huge impact pierced the shield and pierced into the body of the Tang army, often causing two or three people to be injured on the spot and lose their combat effectiveness.

However, the Tang army's catapults, crossbows, and earth-shattering thunder caused significantly greater power and more lethality.

In a few moments, the walls of Wuwei were cracked by boulders, the battlements were destroyed by earth-shattering thunder, and the corpses of the Turks in the aisles increased more and more.

The blurred appearance of flesh and blood is simply miserable.

"Lord Wang, the defenders have suffered too many casualties, too fast, it's not a way to go on like this!"

Su Li's left arm was stabbed by the iron block blasted by the earth-shattering thunder, and the blood stained his armor red, forcibly enduring the great pain Su Li approached King Zuo Xian and reminded anxiously.

The firearms and catapults of the Tang army are too powerful, and the resulting power of the defenders cannot be resisted, and if they do not make changes, the more casualties the defenders will have, and the remaining soldiers of Zuo Xianwang's department may all die in the city.

King Zuo Xian was also in a very bad situation, he was hit by a flying stone in his lower leg, and he limped and limped as he walked forward, and he was extremely embarrassed.

In the face of the frenzied attack of the Tang army, he had no strategy to break the enemy.

The three Tang armies outside the city were eyeing each other, but only Lin Kaiyue led the army to fight, Zhang Shaoming and Guo Xiaocai led the troops to be vigilant in all directions.

The other party did not go out to attack the city, but was monitoring the four directions, and King Zuo Xian knew what they wanted?

Clutching his scimitar tightly, glaring angrily at the Tang army advancing in unison, King Zuo Xian commanded in a low voice: "Su Li, order the three armies to strengthen and follow, don't take the liberty of returning fire, wait for the Tang army to break into the range of the longbow, and shoot in waves of arrows!" ”

The armaments of the two parties are not in the agreed grade, his bed crossbow, and the longbow are too weak.

King Zuo Xian planned to first use the bed crossbow to fight back from a distance and kill the besieging Tang army, once the Tang army was two hundred steps away from the city wall, the longbow shot out a downpour and shot the Tang army with all his might.

No one will be spared!

Su Li heard the sound and whispered an order to the three armies, and the defenders at the head of the city passed the word of mouth, and gradually, the speed of the longbow shooting slowed down, and the spears flying out of the bed crossbow became more and more dense.

The spears were like flying dragons, flying from the top of the city to the thunderbolts, piercing into the shields of the Tang army, causing the miserable situation of people turning over on their backs.

For a while, the casualties of the Tang army surged, and there was a gap in the charging arrow array, and the attack power was virtually weakened.

Lin Kaiyue noticed the casualties of the Tang army, and waved the command flag to signal the elite of the arrow array to retreat.

The military order was like a mountain, and the imposing Tang army witnessed the fluttering order flags, and the shield soldiers protected the archers and retreated in an orderly manner.

Soon, shield men, archers retreated behind the catapults, taking the opportunity to quickly rest.

"The catapult is filled with earth-shattering thunder, and then launch another wave of attacks, and the whole army will retreat!"

Lin Kaiyue turned around and glanced at the resting archers, raised his iron whip to give orders to the three armies, and gave orders to the three armies.

"The boulder has been replaced by earth-shattering thunder!"

Next to the catapult, a general in charge of the command repeated Lin Kaiyue's military orders.

In an instant, thousands of slingers quickly reported a thunderstorm from the carriage in the rear, lit the fuse and placed it on the catapult.

When the lead hissed, there was a bang, and the catapult shot out suddenly, and a huge earth-shattering thunder shuttled through the air, heading towards the south gate of the city.

After rigorous training, Lin Kaiyue's soldiers have rich combat experience.

The earth-shattering thunder thrown by the catapult smashed into the city with almost no mistake, and in the corridor, the rumbling explosion sounded above the south gate.

This wave of momentum like a rainbow attack, even if King Zuo Xian and his soldiers were prepared, in this explosion one after another, the defenders at the head of the city still suffered countless casualties.

Only one wave of attacks, causing more casualties than before.

While the defenders suffered casualties, the shields were torn apart, and the scattered bed crossbows were scattered in the center of the corpses.

The defenders at the head of the city who were lucky to save their lives, but fortunately, still did not dare to relax at all.

The Tang army's offensive has not yet stopped, and they don't know when a sky-shattering thunder falls, it will take their lives.

At this moment, the aisle, including Zuo Xianwang and Su Li, became more and more demoralized the more they fought, and they almost lost their fighting spirit.

The power generated by the explosion of the earth-shattering thunder was too great, and the iron pieces that flew out of the explosion increased the power several times, and each explosion-shaking thunder seemed to be harvesting the lives of the defenders.

They defended the head of the city to the death, and the rain of arrows they shot could barely consume the Tang army's vital strength, but their own casualties far exceeded the Tang army, and if they continued like this, the defenders would be consumed by the Tang army sooner or later.

"Lord Wang, keep going, we can't stop the offensive of the Tang Army!" Su Li reported in a panic, looking at the stump and broken arm in the corridor, he couldn't help but have the idea of leading the army to flee in his heart.

The Tang Army, the Tang Army carrying the earth-shattering thunder, is like a group of demons who kill people without blinking, and any army that confronts them will pay the price of extinction.

He really didn't want to stay in the city if he could!

Hearing this, King Zuo Xian did not hesitate, turned around and said: "You stay in the city, this king returns to the city to discuss the military situation with the king of Khan, the facts change the tactics, we can no longer consume the lives of the three armies!" ”

As he spoke, King Zuo Xian motioned to a few pro-soldiers next to him and helped him go down the aisle

Seeing that King Zuo Xian was greedy for life and afraid of death, Su Li couldn't wait to abandon the city and flee.
