Tushi Khan had a smug smile on his face, the power of the stone-throwing cart really opened his eyes, continuous attacks, the city wall on the back of Wuping Mansion has collapsed in many places, the surface of the originally flat city wall, there are holes one after another, and even a lot of stones fell on the head of the city, killing and injuring many defenders at the head of the city.

What made Tushi Khan even more excited was that the range of the catapult was far above that of the bow and arrow, and although the city walls were scarred and many defenders were killed, the barbarians did not hurt a single person.

Such results made Thushi Khan very excited.

He had some regrets in his heart at this time, although more than 30 stone-throwing vehicles lined up and launched a continuous attack on the city, but for the long Wuping Mansion city wall, the number of more than 30 stone-throwing vehicles was still too small, and it did not completely destroy the city wall, he thought that if there were one or two hundred stone-throwing vehicles, its power would be amazing, maybe there was no need for soldiers to charge, and the entire city wall could be completely destroyed by relying on the stone-throwing trucks alone.

He regretted it, but soon something upset him.

Although the power of the stone-throwing car is amazing, but these stone-throwing cars are made in a hurry, and the material is simple, after a few rounds, there are several stone-throwing cars have been damaged, and then each round of boulders throws, there are always a few stone-throwing cars that fail, and so on after half of the stone-throwing cars fail, the power is greatly weakened, and the boulder thrown is not as spectacular as before.

He was very angry, these more than 30 stone-throwing trucks, but hundreds of people worked day and night, it took several days to make successfully, although the power is not weak, but the speed of wear and tear is too fast, according to this, it will not take long, all the stone-throwing vehicles are afraid of being destroyed, so that the biggest reliance on the siege of the city will disappear.

He didn't have much time to wait.

Seeing that the city wall collapsed in many places, the stone-throwing vehicles continued to be used, and even the last small part of the stone-throwing vehicles had to be damaged, so he ordered to stop throwing corpses, and then ordered to wave the order flag.

Their method was still to use cavalry archers to charge the front first, suppressing the defenders at the head of the city with a rain of arrows, followed by soldiers carrying ladders, and at the rear, soldiers pushing siege engines slowly forward.

The number of ladders is not much, a total of hundreds of ladders, divided into three parts, although the back is the main direction of attack, but after keeping almost all the stone throwers, naturally the ladders can not be left.

The soldiers of the Turish Khan tribe were the main force of the siege in the north, and they left the catapults in order to concentrate their forces on the devastating attack on the city walls, but also to minimize the casualties of their own tribesmen.

With the roar of the mountains roaring like a tsunami, countless barbarian soldiers rushed towards the city wall.

Tushi Khan stared into the distance, and the hand holding the horsewhip also trembled slightly, which was naturally not because of nervousness, but because of excitement, once he attacked Wuping Mansion City this time, he became the first leader of the Yiman tribe to conquer Hexi Mansion City, and he will surely become a hero praised by generations on the grassland.

It was already dark, but the shouts and killings around Wuping Mansion City were one after another.

Tushi Khan saw the army attacking the city, saw the cloud ladder at the head of the city, and saw the brave soldiers under his command climbing to the head of the city, and there were holes in many places in the city wall, and the hook rope was easy to hang, and the city of Wuping was crumbling, and Tushi Khan was also in a mood.

Soon, he saw a raging fire on the edge of the city, and heard heart-rending screams coming from the front.

Tushi Khan leaned forward, his eyes widened, and the soldiers around him were all terrified, and in the night, the fire was extremely conspicuous, and the raging fire spread under the city, at first it was only one place, but soon, the entire city wall was covered by the flames.

"Cunning Qin people." Tushi Khan shook his horsewhip, and a look of annoyance appeared on his face, "Blow the horn, tonight, you must break through the city, Ben Khan will kill all the Qin people in the city!" With a fierce glint in his eyes, he heard the screams coming from ahead and knew that a large number of soldiers were dying under the city.

The barbarians were indeed fierce, and in the sound of low horns, the barbarian soldiers did not stop attacking because of the fire, and every place on the city wall became the direction of the barbarians' attack.

The soldiers defending the city were also very resilient, and their troops were obviously at an absolute disadvantage, but they still resisted desperately.

The collapsed and dilapidated city wall made it easier for the barbarians to climb the city, but in fact, under the darkness of the night, there were also a large number of barbarians who climbed to the top of the city, and above the city, there was a sound of fighting, and the defenders not only had to prevent more barbarians from climbing the city, but also had to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the barbarians who had already climbed the city.

The fighting never stopped, and the winter night was cold, but Tushhan felt as if his whole body was burning, and he kept riding on his horse, and he didn't even know how long it had been.

The siege vehicles had already rushed under the city gates.

He looked into the distance, hoping for cheers in front of him, and time passed quietly, but there was no cheer in front of him that exhilarated Tushi Khan, but the continuous screams kept in his ears.

The defenders always smashed stones and logs down from the city, and from time to time poured fuel from the city, as long as the fire under the city weakened, new fuel poured down from above, they seemed to keep the city into a sea of fire, although Tushi Khan did not come close, but he knew very well that in the midst of the flames, he was afraid that the corpses of countless barbarian soldiers would be burned to ashes.

The offensive launched at dusk did not stop until midnight, and not only did there be no news from the north of the main attack that would make Thurshi Khan happy, but there was no good news from the other two sides.

At this time, there was a trace of doubt in his heart.

He was skeptical that there were really only a few thousand defenders in this city?

Thousands of defenders defended three walls, and the combined length of the three walls was enough to completely disperse the defenders.

Of course, the Thu Shi Khan knew the bravery of the barbarian soldiers, as long as one place could climb to the top of the city and gain a firm foothold, then the supporting soldiers could continue to climb through this gap, and the entire city could be submerged in no time.

But none of this happened.

There is no doubt that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers defending the city is really amazing, and if there are really only a few thousand soldiers and horses, then their willpower is even more terrifying.

It was naturally impossible for Tushi Khan to think that at this moment, the emperor of the Great Qin Empire, Dingwu, was already dressed in armor and took the lead, not only personally commanding and defending the city, but also holding the sword of the Son of Heaven in his hand, and personally facing the barbarian soldiers attacking the city at the head of the city.

Although the fuel at the head of the city has been exhausted, the previous fire attack has brought fatal damage to the barbarians besieging the city, not only physically, but also psychologically to countless barbarian soldiers.

Relying on their fierce will to fight, although from time to time there were soldiers who forcibly climbed the city, they often did not stand still, and someone had already come forward with spears.

There are less than 3,000 elite guards under Dingwu's command, and it is naturally impossible to defend all the city walls, but the strong men recruited from the city have also been trained into a brave team under the continuous attacks of the barbarians in the recent period.

Almost all of them are from Hexi, located in the north of the empire, and their temperament is already brave, and most of them are young and strong, they are hot-blooded men, compared to southerners, they know more about the cruelty of the barbarians, and understand what will happen to them once the city is broken, and their parents and children will fall into purgatory, so they are ready to resist to the end from the beginning.

The tyranny of the Qin State certainly made the people of the world resentful, but at the last critical moment, Emperor Dingwu arranged his troops, took the lead, and showed the belief in confronting the enemy to the end, but it also greatly convinced the whole city.

Led by the emperor himself, tens of thousands of strong men have already saved their hearts of death and vowed to live and die with the city.

A fierce fight is more effective than training, and it will train a person into a warrior as quickly as possible.

The strong men scattered at the head of the city were also given equipment from the armory, wearing armor and holding spears and swords, as if they were real warriors.

Although the barbarians have climbed the city many times, they have not been able to gain a foothold in the city at all, and Dingwu even personally rushed to the money to fight with the barbarians who climbed to the top of the city.

He was so good at martial arts that if the barbarian soldier happened to bump into him, he didn't even see Dingwu's face clearly, and his head was separated in an instant.

There are a lot of dart bureaus and martial arts halls in the city of Wuping Mansion, and even some scattered Jianghu righteous soldiers, if the siege of the city is replaced by someone else, maybe many people are cold bystanders, but when faced with the barbarians, these people have stood up without hesitation, climbed to the top of the city, and fought hand in hand with the defenders.

If the barbarians form a strong cavalry corps on horseback, there are really few enemies today, but when it comes to individual combat, they are often not the opponents of the defenders.

The four or five hundred people, composed of the dart board, the martial arts hall and the scattered rangers, became an important force in defending the city.

Ding Wu actually knew very well in his heart that these people were desperately guarding, not necessarily for him, the emperor, nor necessarily for the Great Qin Empire, but at extraordinary times, as long as it could be used to resist the barbarian power, he would not refuse.

From the high spirits of the attack, to the nervousness and anger that followed, in the middle of the night, there was no momentum to take the city, and he was even a little desperate.

He really didn't understand, the elite barbarian iron cavalry was already amazing in combat effectiveness, and this time tens of thousands of elite horsemen were gathered, which could be said to be the most powerful and powerful in the history of the barbarians, but why couldn't he defeat a weakly guarded city for a long time?

"Tushi Khan, I can't fight anymore!" Just as the corners of Tu Shi Khan's eyes twitched, a general next to him couldn't help but say: "If we continue to fight like this, I'm afraid that if the city is not taken, more than half of our people will die!" ”

Tushi Khan turned his head, his eyes were like knives, and glanced at the man, who was stared at by Tushi Khan, shivered, and immediately lowered his head.

Although Tushi Khan was angry, he also understood that if he continued to fight like this, the casualties would only get worse.

In the previous few sieges, the people of the Turish Khan headquarters did not serve as the main force, but this time the attack, the Turish Khan was thoughtful, thinking that he was nine out of ten, and he had the intention to let the men and horses of the headquarters take the lead in attacking the city, so most of the thousands of soldiers and horses under his command rushed into battle, from dusk to this time, the battle was extremely fierce, and he actually knew very well that his own people and horses must have suffered heavy losses.

He came to lead his troops to gain something, but if he continued to fight, he could only continue to lose more.

These thousands of soldiers and horses, but they will devour the trump card and confidence of the various departments of the grassland in the future, if this army is lost here because of the attack on Wuping Mansion City, it will be more than worth the loss.

When more than 2,000 people from the Jochitai headquarters came to the Central Plains, the entire army had been wiped out, and everyone knew that the tribes of Jochitai were already close to destruction, and Tushi Khan did not want to fall into the same situation as Jochitai.

Compared to tonight's attack on the city and preserve the strength, of course, the latter is the most important, if the headquarters of the soldiers and horses suffer heavy losses, even if the Wuping Mansion City is defeated and there is a fart, maybe it is for others to make wedding clothes, cheaper than other tribes, he really wants to hold on for a while, fought for most of the night, although he knows that the barbarian soldiers have suffered heavy losses, but he also knows that the Qin army defending the city is probably also the end of the crossbow, maybe if you hold on for a while, it is possible to break the city, but this idea is still overwhelmed by the preservation of strength after all, although the heart is unwillingAfter all, Tushi Khan still ordered the whole army to withdraw its troops.

After a fierce battle, the barbarians finally retreated, and they once felt that Wuping Mansion City was about to be trampled underfoot, but it was always a little bit closer.

The little hope in their hearts made them grit their teeth and want to persevere, but the continuous deaths and injuries of their companions made their hearts still shaken, and when the order of Tushi Khan to withdraw was issued, they finally did not have to sway from side to side, and the barbarian soldiers finally retreated like a tide, of course, they could not care about the corpses of their comrades who died in battle, and the city was full of mountains of corpses, some of which had been scorched by the fire, and there was a scorching smell that made people vomit everywhere under the city.

After the barbarians retreated, the officers and soldiers defending the city had a feeling of being separated from the world, many people thought that the barbarians would hold out to the end, if the barbarians continued to fight, they were afraid that they would not survive until dawn, and the city would really be breached, and many people were ready to die in battle.

The barbarians don't know, but they themselves know that the balance of strength between the two sides is too great, a night of bloody battles, the barbarians have suffered heavy losses, and the defenders have suffered a lot of losses, although the city is full of corpses, but there are also countless corpses lying on the city, the attack of the barbarians is fierce and sharp, if such an offensive continues continuously, no one can guarantee that it can be defended.

Seeing the barbarians go away, many of the defenders were exhausted, and they couldn't care about the corpses on the ground, so they sat down with their butts.
