On the city wall, Cheng Pu saw the catapult on its frame and hurriedly asked some archers to shoot the catapult and operate the Yuan army soldiers.
Feather arrows shot over one after another.
The catapult immediately retreated, widening the distance beyond the reach of the arrows.
Cheng Pu could only order all the archers again to continue shooting at the Yuan soldiers who rushed up the ladder and crossed the moat.
At this time, the catapult operator Yuan Jun's soldiers had loaded a stone as big as a man's head.
There was a clicking sound.
Catapults scooped up stones.
Stones whizzed across the sky.
Some jumped directly over the city wall and fell into the city.
Some fell outside the city walls.
However, many stones fell directly onto the city wall.
Any stone that fell on the city wall would knock over several Jiangdong soldiers and smash them into a pulp!
The addition of catapults instantly alleviated the pressure of archers on the city wall.
Ji Ling immediately asked people to beat the war drum.
With the war drums shaking the earth, two square formations of Yuan Jun soldiers once again rushed up the ladder of the moat and rushed to the bottom of the city wall.
Siege ladders began to be erected on the city wall.
On the city wall, Jiangdong soldiers used the wooden frames that had been prepared to push away the siege ladder that had not yet climbed many people.
However, more and more siege ladders were put up.
More and more Yuan Jun soldiers climbed up the siege ladder.
The heavy siege ladder was impossible to push.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Pu immediately ordered the archers to retreat while other Jiangdong soldiers stepped forward.
Pieces of stones that had already been moved up the city wall were thrown down towards the Yuan Jun soldiers on the siege ladder.
The screams came one after another.
At every moment, dozens of Yuan Jun soldiers fell down from the siege ladder with their teeth and claws open, vomiting blood.
Before they woke up, another Yuan Jun soldier fell down and fell on them.
The war drums became more and more intensive.
More Yuan Jun soldiers bravely climbed up the siege ladder.
The stone is no longer enough to suppress them.
Buckets of steaming golden juice with a pungent smell were carried up from under the city wall.
The stones kept being thrown.
Hot and pungent golden juice.
Mix both.
Countless Yuan Jun soldiers who had just rushed to the city wall along the siege ladder, and were about to rush to the city wall, screamed and fell down one by one.
Under the city wall, densely packed corpses piled up like mountains.
The strong smell of blood and pungent stench combined to make people sick to their stomach.
The sky gradually darkened.
Ji Ling gritted his teeth as he looked at the countless corpses piled up under the city.
As he swung his sword vigorously.
Yuan Jun soldiers from the fifth and sixth phalanx also roared and charged forward.
The stone on the city wall is already stretched thin.
The gold juice refined under the city wall has bottomed out.
Jiangdong soldiers climbed up the fortifications one after another and launched an attack on the Yuan Army soldiers who rushed towards the city wall outside the city.
Crossbows and arrows kept killing those Yuan Jun soldiers.
However, more Yuan Jun soldiers began to climb up the city wall along the siege ladder.
Cheng Pu ordered the Jiangdong soldiers to give up throwing stones and gold juice.
Each Jiangdong soldier carried a weapon, rushed to the siege ladder, and launched a close-range fight against the Yuan Army soldiers who climbed up the siege ladder.
A soldier from the Yuan Army climbed up the city wall, but before he had time to rejoice, he was chopped into pieces by Jiangdong soldiers on the wall.
On the city wall, a Jiangdong soldier had just killed a Yuan Jun soldier who had climbed up the city wall. When he was about to turn around, he was chopped down to the ground by a Yuan Jun soldier who had climbed up the city wall.
The wash of blood and fire spread across every corner of the city wall.
Angry fighting and mournful screams intertwined.
Lu Yi looked at the fighting in every corner of the city wall, and his heart was bleeding.
Every Jiangdong soldier who died was the son, husband and father of many people.
How many families have disappeared before their eyes.
Outside the city, Ji Ling saw that his soldiers had already attacked the city wall, but they were at a disadvantage.
Without any hesitation, Ji Ling ordered the flag bearer to launch a general attack!
Suddenly, the remaining four phalanx soldiers rushed towards the city wall like a tide.
The momentum of the Jiangdong soldiers on the city wall was instantly suppressed.
Many soldiers began to retreat.
Seeing this, Lu Yi quickly ordered Nangong Yan, Shi Huan and fifty Danyang elites who were guarding him to help everywhere.
Nangong Yan shook his head firmly and said, "No! What if something happens to you once I leave?"
Lu Yi pulled out the ring-headed sword from his waist, rushed out, beheaded a Yuan Jun soldier, and roared: "If the city wall is lost, you will not be able to protect my safety even if you are by my side!"
After hearing what Lu Yi said, Nangong Yan hesitated slightly, pulled out the sword from his waist, and rushed out.
Lu Yi roared at Shi Huan again: "Can't you understand people?"
Shi Huan gritted his teeth before taking fifty Danyang elites to join the battle to defend the city.
Zhang Hong and other civil servants followed Lu Yi hurriedly.
Seeing Yuan Jun soldiers coming towards him, Zhang Hong drew his sword, but his legs and feet were shaking with fear.
While Lu Yi killed the Yuan Jun soldiers who were rushing over, he said to the dozens of young men such as Lu Xun, Lu Ji, Zhu Ran, Zhou Fang, etc. who were following him: "From the moment you go to the battlefield, you are no longer Children! Let Mr. Zhang and the others be protected by you, use their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, and if they can’t be defeated, use bows and arrows!”
Lu Ji huddled behind Lu Xun, almost crying.
Although he has suffered a lot over the years, where has he experienced such a bloody and cruel situation?
While Lu Xun was protecting Lu Ji behind him, he said to Zhu Ran, Zhou Fang, Ling Tong and others: "Keep Zhang Gong and Mr. Zhuge inside, and keep the martial arts students outside."
"Don't stand still."
"Let's move to where there's less fighting!"
Zhu Ran, Zhou Fang, Ling Tong and other dozen young men followed Lu Xun's words and surrounded Zhang Hong, Zhuge Jin, Wei Jing and other civil servants behind them.
Under the leadership of Lu Xun, everyone kept moving.
With the joint efforts of Zhu Ran, Zhou Fang, Ling Tong and other young martial arts students, the Yuan Army soldiers who rushed over fell into a pool of blood one after another.
Seeing that all the civil servants were safe, Lu Yi felt relieved and rushed to the front of the city wall.
Although he now has hope in his heart and doesn't want to die early.
However, the current situation no longer allowed him to think too much.
He thought about the scene where he had just traveled through a mirage and was being hunted because he was wearing "fancy clothes" and had to fight back.
His mind was empty.
The only thought is to kill!
Either you die or I die!
Seeing a Yuan Army general climbing up the siege ladder and piercing a Yuan Army soldier in front of him with a spear, Lu Yi roared and took a step forward, completely burying the gun head into his shoulder. within.
While General Yuan Jun was in shock, Lu Yi slashed the opponent's neck with a knife and cut off the opponent's head!
More and more Yuan Jun soldiers are attacking the city wall!
Yuan Jun swarmed in, trampling on the mountains of corpses, and roared excitedly.
They saw the dawn of victory!
When Ji Ling saw this, he screamed with excitement.
it's time!
Ji Ling ordered the siege vehicles that were still guarding the place to cross the moat and attack the city gate!
At the foot of the city wall, Zhou Yu looked at the hell-like fighting on the wall, took a deep breath, and walked up quickly with his long sword in hand.
Although he doesn't like this Lu Yi.
However, in this situation, he could not remain indifferent and helplessly watch the soldiers of Bo Fu die here one by one!
If this was the case, he was afraid of falling into hell and not being able to see Bo Fu.
The fighting became more and more intense.
The city gate let out a mournful scream under the impact of the siege engines.
Behind the city gate, Jiangdong soldiers blushed and blocked the door with their bodies, only to be knocked out again and again.
Many surrendered soldiers in Lujiang looked at this scene and began to retreat.
Seeing the situation in danger.
At this moment, a roar suddenly occurred to the south outside the city.
The sky was filled with firelight that lit up half of the sky!
Hundreds of cattle, dragging the flames, rushed towards them and rushed into the Yuan army who were still on the other side of the moat.
Chaos arose instantly!
Countless Yuan Jun were knocked out by the fire bull, and they all wailed incessantly!
More Yuan Jun hurriedly fled.
Yuan Jun on the other side of the moat was in chaos.
Ji Ling obviously didn't come back to his senses.
He is preparing to attack the city with his entire army!
When he saw the fire ox, and behind it, fire shot into the sky, and an unknown number of Jiangdong soldiers rushed towards them. Ji Ling gritted his teeth and ignored them.
He ordered the flag bearers to attack the city quickly!
The drumbeat of the attack is getting louder and louder!
Siege engines kept attacking.
The city gate kept making clapping sounds, which seemed to announce the end of life.
"kill!!!"
As the fire ox was raging behind Yuan's army, the deafening sound of fighting sounded again.
On the north side of Yuan's army, an army suddenly appeared and dived straight into the rear of Yuan's army.
I saw Taishi Ci and Xu Shu, escorted by the personal guards, riding war horses and rushing into Yuan's army first.
Yuan Jun, who was originally charged by the fire bull, instantly became a mess!
Next to Ji Ling, the deputy general said in horror: "General, there are at least tens of thousands of Jiangdong reinforcements! Our retreat is blocked. Stop the attack quickly and fight out to prevent being surrounded!"
Ji Ling roared: "The current situation is such that if you retreat, you will be defeated. There is still a glimmer of hope for a strong attack!"
After saying that, he first rode up the ladder, crossed the moat, and was ready to rush into the city and seize the city as soon as the siege vehicle broke through the city gate!
On the city wall, Zhou Yu also came up to kill him.
Seeing that Taishi Ci's reinforcements and the Fire Bull Formation had been launched outside the city, Zhou Yu moved quickly in the direction of Lu Yi and kept shouting: "Open the city gate, fight out, and attack from both front and back!"
Although Lu Yi was red-eyed, he had always remained vigilant about his surroundings.
Suddenly hearing the voice of "Open the city gate, fight out", and then looking at the reinforcements outside the city, Lu Yi rushed to the handsome flag not far away, snatched it from the flag bearer, rushed to the city wall and said: "Kill out !”
When the Jiangdong soldiers who were fighting on the city wall saw this, they followed Shuai Qi and rushed down.
When Nangong Yan, Shi Huan, Xu Sheng, Ling Cao, Zhou Tai and others saw that Lu Yi was actually rushing down carrying the handsome flag, their expressions changed suddenly and they all rushed over.
Just as the siege engines were about to crash through the city gate, the city gate suddenly opened.
Led by Lu Yi, countless Jiangdong soldiers, covered in blood, rushed like ghosts into the formation of Yuan's army waiting to enter the city.
Ji Ling obviously did not expect that the defenders in the city would dare to open the door and attack.
He led his soldiers and charged directly to kill them.
However, facing the Jiangdong defenders who rushed out and had no other way out, he obviously underestimated the opponent's strength.
The two sides collided together.
Screams filled the entire Shu County.
Ji Ling's army was blocked at the gate of the city by the Jiangdong defenders who rushed out, and could not go any further!
From the rear, Taishi Ci's army came up and completely killed him!
Tian Yu led a thousand soldiers, gave up dragging burning branches, and rushed into the formation!
Three parties encircled!
Yuan Jun was unable to advance or retreat, and everything was in chaos!
"Let go of the east side!" Seeing this, Lu Yi thought of Zhou Yu's plan and kept waving his flag to signal the three encircling armies to open the gap to the east side.
Ji Ling's brain was already turned into a mush with fear.
This kind of situation was something he never expected.
Seeing the encirclement shrinking, Ji Ling hurriedly followed Yuan Jun and fled eastward.
Although if you escape this time, you will inevitably be severely punished.
However, bringing back some soldiers can reduce some punishments.
If the entire army is annihilated, death is certain!
This is an army of 40,000!
