After the troops and horses suppressed the position, following an order from King Zuo Xian, the remaining 260,000 Western Turkic troops divided into three groups and attacked the three walls of Dingxiang City.
Afterwards, there were groups of cavalry urging the Western Turks soldiers in front to rush forward. This was arranged by King Zuo Xian, just like the method used when facing foreigners.
If anyone dares to fight, these cavalrymen will teach him a lesson, unlike when they face foreigners, they just kill them without saying anything.
Facing his own tribe, he still gave him some leeway and only punished, not killed.
The soldiers of the Western Turks also knew that today would be the last battle, and they had no way to turn back. King Zuo Xian said that if Dingxiang City could not be captured, everyone would die, including himself.
With these words, everyone, like King Zuo Xian, was determined to die and rushed towards Dingxiang City.
Of course, King Zuo Xian just said that he would not die. If he was defeated, he would return to the Western Turks and hand over his rights in exchange for peace for the rest of his life.
Seeing the soldiers moving forward bravely, King Zuo Xian nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself, even though these people are cheap, they still have to force them. If they don't force them, they won't try their best!
However, before King Zuo Xian could be happy for a while, he heard a loud noise on the walls of Dingxiang City, and then shells were fired from the artillery, blazing towards the attacking Western Turk soldiers.
It fell among the Western Turkic soldiers, and then a bigger explosion sounded, leaving a huge hole in the place. The Western Turkic soldiers around it were knocked over by the explosion and screamed again and again.
Those who were lucky were thrown far away and managed to survive, while those who were unlucky were bombed and died on the spot, but this was considered good. What was even more tragic was that their arms and legs were broken by the explosion, and they were unable to die for a while, leaving them wailing in pain on the ground. .
King Zuo Xian's smile froze, and then became extremely gloomy. If he remembered correctly, there should not be so many artillery in Dingxiang City. He could see clearly that there were a lot of cannonballs fired from the city wall just now. .
Could it be that Li Jing concentrated all his artillery on the northern city wall?
"Let me see if there are artillery on the east city wall and the west city wall!" King Zuo Xian said coldly to the messenger.
The messengers were ordered to disperse and ride towards the east and west walls to check for news about the artillery.
The attack on the northern city wall was blocked due to the suppression of artillery. Even if you try your best to avoid the artillery attack and reach the bottom of the city wall with a ladder, you will be bombarded by wooden lumps at the first time, resulting in all these efforts. The Western Turkic soldiers who came to the city wall after many hardships died tragically under the city wall.
Seeing this scene, King Zuo Xian almost went crazy, but he was powerless. It was impossible for him to rush forward personally.
However, he also had some hope in his heart. If Li Jingzhen mobilized all the artillery to the North City Wall, which means that there will be no artillery on the East City Wall and the West City Wall, then the attack there will be much better than that on the North City Wall. Without the suppression of artillery, That will be the breakthrough point of Dingxiang City. Maybe the hope of breaking through the city wall lies on those two walls!
After a while, several messengers came back on their horses and came to pay homage to King Zuo Xian.
"Tell me, how is the situation?" King Zuo Xian asked eagerly.
"Your Majesty, the east city wall was hit by artillery fire just like the north city wall, and the attack was blocked!"
"Your Majesty, the same is true for the west city wall. It was bombarded by artillery and the attack was blocked!"
"What? We were all attacked by artillery? How is this possible? Impossible, did you see it wrong?" King Zuo Xian exclaimed.
"Your Majesty, several of us have seen it, and we are sure we saw it correctly!" the messenger said truthfully.
"Impossible, where did they get so many artillery pieces? If they really had so many artillery pieces, why didn't they use them a few days ago? If they had used them, so many people wouldn't have died in Dingxiang City. What's going on? What's going on?"
No one could answer King Zuo Xian's question, and they all bowed their heads and remained silent. Talking at this time is like bringing bad luck. Only you have a solution, so you can start the class. If there is no way, just shut up.
