The soldiers of the Alliance Army continued to climb up after the previous one. Even though many people had died, their footsteps never stopped.
At this point, the competition is actually about who can hold on.
It was to compare the amount of supplies stored in Nanzhao and the speed of Peter and the alliance army.
Are they throwing stones faster, or is the army crawling faster?
Do they have more stones, or do they have more brave men who are not afraid of death?
City offensive and defensive battles are often so direct and cruel. There is no need for extraneous skills and skills, and the attack is done.
At this time, the Alliance archers were finally within shooting range.
Xue Rengui shouted, "Fire the arrow!!"
In an instant, overwhelming arrows flew out.
He immediately rushed towards the city wall.
Some Nanzhao soldiers who were carrying stones were immediately pierced by arrows and fell directly towards the city wall.
"defense!!"
At this time, Xin Tianji was still issuing orders in an orderly manner.
The shields were raised one by one by the Nanzhao soldiers to resist the arrows that were like a rain of arrows.
The Alliance army is not only large in numbers, but also abundant in supplies.
After all, this is combat material supported by 90 countries, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
As for Nanzhao, it was not a very powerful country, and its supplies were limited.
So at this moment, the pros and cons are compared.
They were struck head-on with arrows.
Xue Rengui seemed not to regard arrows as money, and never ordered to stop.
The continuous shooting of these arrows also caused the Nanzhao soldiers to hold up their shields to defend. However, holding up their shields would affect their speed of carrying stones.
For a time, the soldiers on the ladder were much faster.
Soon we will be rushing to the city wall.
Xin Tianji frowned and looked at the coalition forces under the city wall.
Although he could clearly feel that these coalition forces were unfamiliar with each other and did not have much cooperation and understanding, they were very obedient.
There was no hesitation about Xue Rengui's orders.
This led to the fact that even though the alliance army did not have a tacit understanding, in this kind of repressive battle that did not require high tacit understanding, the alliance army did not feel separated at all.
This was somewhat beyond Xin Tianji's expectations.
He frowned and drank, "Pour hot oil!!"
Soon, the soldiers of Nanzhao turned over the hot oil pan.
Pots of hot oil were poured down, and the soldiers on the suddenly hot ladder screamed and fell down.
Seeing this scene, Xue Rengui waved his hand and shouted, "Get ready for the catapult!!"
Huge siege equipment was prepared one by one.
The soldiers quickly loaded the stones.
Xue Rengui waved his hand and said, "Let go!!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! ! !
Huge stones fell from the sky and quickly hit the walls of Xin'an City, knocking over the soldiers instantly.
The terrifying weapon of a great power shows its fangs at this time.
When Shen Lian saw this scene, he knew that even the slings were used. It seemed that Xue Rengui was not ready to withdraw his troops.
This Xin'an City is going to be destroyed.
Xin Tianji, do you have any other methods?
It’s time to show off your abilities, right?
In ancient times, thermal weapons had not been invented yet.
A super-large instrument like a catapult can be regarded as a synonym for a terrifying weapon.
The huge stones were thrown onto the city wall of Xin'an City, and the power they unleashed was definitely not weaker than some ordinary cannonballs.
Just listen to the roaring sound.
One by one, the soldiers of Nanzhao were smashed into pulp.
And the city wall, under the bombardment of catapults, began to gradually crack, and it felt a little shaky.
Huge rocks kept falling from the sky, as if they were the wrath of the gods.
At this moment, the entire city wall of Xin'an City was covered.
Full of panic and confusion.
The soldiers of the Alliance army were encouraged by this and attacked even more quickly.
The balance of the battle has begun to tilt.
At this time, if Xin'an City does not take any effective measures, then it will be really in danger next.
Tianji looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh, "This is a powerful weapon for a great country. With such a powerful weapon, why worry about not destroying the enemy!"
Shen Lian smiled and said, "The catapult is indeed powerful."
"But the effect is just that. I can't say it's great, but it's not bad either. It's said to be a valuable weapon of the country, but it's actually a bit worse."
Tianji glanced at Shen Lian and said, "Master Shen, your vision is too high!?"
"Does Mr. Shen think that there is a more important weapon of the country than a catapult?"
Shen Lian smiled softly, nodded and said, "Yes, I think there is more."
"and……"
He squinted his eyes, looked at Tianji with a smile, and said, "Besides, I brought it here, but it's not time to use it yet."
"You can't see it even if you want to."
real or fake! ?
Tianji looked suspicious...
There are even more powerful weapons than catapults, are you kidding me? ?
She had never heard of it in all her years in Datang.
Shen Lian must have lied to himself again.
Tianji is very sure!
Shen Lian also said that there was not a single truth in his mouth, as if everything in Shen Lian's mouth was the truth.
In her opinion, Shen Lian never told the truth.
It’s so funny to lie to myself at this time, I really thought I would believe it! ?
Tianji chuckled and did not respond to Shen Lian.
Shen Lian glanced at Tianji and took Tianji's expression into his eyes.
He smiled slightly and shook his head slightly.
Why! He felt that his reputation had been harmed!
I am really different from Tianji. Tianji is too cunning and doesn't really tell the truth.
But what he said was all the truth, he didn't lie to Tianji! !
It's a pity that no one believes the truth these days, and he is helpless.
Cleverness is misled by cleverness.
Shen Lian laughed, continued to look at the city wall, and said, "What do you think Xin Tianji will do next?"
Tianji frowned and said, "In this case, what else can we do besides holding on?"
"Even if Zhuge Liang is alive, there is no other way to face this situation."
"Defend!? I don't think so."
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and said, "I feel that Xin Tianji will definitely find a way to restrict the use of catapults..."
"Constraint!? What can he do? Is he still in the alliance army and arranging his people?"
Tianji didn't believe it, "Even if there are people from the Beidou Society in the alliance army, don't you think it's stupid if they are exposed at this time!?"
"This is just the beginning. If there is really an inside job, wouldn't it be better to hide it until the most critical moment and take action!?"
Shen Lian smiled and said, "Whether there is an insider is another matter. Even if there is, he will definitely not use it now."
"A fool would only use such an important chassis from the beginning."
"Then why did you..."
Tianji was puzzled. Just as he opened his mouth, he suddenly froze.
Because at this time, there was movement on the walls of Xin'an City.
Xin Tianji, who had been motionless, suddenly gave an order, and everyone stopped guarding the city. They retreated directly and pushed to the stairs of the city wall.
They are no longer blocking the Alliance army!
"This...this is!?"
Tianji's eyes widened.
It turned out that because the soldiers of Nanzhao no longer blocked it, the alliance army could easily climb the city wall.
And because they reached the city wall and used catapults again, they would harm their own soldiers.
Therefore, the catapult was indeed stopped by Xue Rengui.
"this……"
Tianji widened his eyes and said, "What kind of tactic is this? Just to prevent catapults from attacking, they abandoned the city wall. Are they crazy?"
"Crazy!?"
Shen Lian said with a faint smile, "I think even if you are crazy, they will not be crazy."
"What's the meaning?"
Tianji frowned.
I really don’t understand something.
In her opinion, Xin Tianji's approach really makes no sense.
In this way, the soldiers were pushed up the stairs and directly gave way to the city wall.
In this case, it will indeed stop the catapult.
But the city wall of Xin'an City was also occupied by the alliance army!
For the defenders, the loss of the city wall basically means that the city is about to be breached.
What is this new Tianji doing?
She felt that Xin Tianji was being stupid.
These are her words, and she will never use this stupid trick.
However, Shen Lian felt that Xin Tianji was not crazy for this method, which he thought was very stupid.
what on earth is it?
Even Tianji.
I also found that I went together with these guys who were not normal.
Shen Lian glanced at Tianji, who looked puzzled, and smiled softly.
He touched the reins slightly with his fingers and said, "I have told you before, but you forgot!?"
"What!?"
"For Xin Tianji, guarding Xin'an City is not his purpose at all."
"His purpose is to test the situation of the Alliance army, so after knowing the powerful siege capabilities of the Alliance army, there is no point in continuing to defend the city, right?"
Shen Lian said lightly.
Tianji's eyes moved.
When Shen Lian said this, her heart suddenly moved.
Could it be that……
She looked at Shen Lian suddenly and said: "Xin Tianji's next step is to test the capabilities of the alliance army in other aspects. He does not take the life and death of Xin'an City and the life and death of these soldiers seriously at all."
Snapped!
Shen Lian snapped his fingers and said with a smile, "Smart."
"It's easy to talk to smart people."
He looked at Tianji and said, "Xin Tianji is not a fool. On the contrary, I feel that he has a shrewdness that is not commensurate with his burly figure."
"Although he is big, he has a great mind."
"We cut it off immediately, without hesitation at all. Even though we knew that if we retreat, Xin'an City would be completely destroyed, we still didn't hesitate at all."
He smiled at Tianji and said, "It seems that your successor is really good. In my opinion, he is qualified for the time being."
Tianji frowned.
At this time, on the city wall of Xin'an City, the alliance army that climbed up on the city wall was already in close combat with the soldiers of Xin'an City.
The battle started immediately.
That Xin Tianji did not participate in the battle, but stood behind the crowd and directed the soldiers to fight.
She said, "Is Xin Tianji going to test the direct combat power of the alliance army now?"
"Roughly the same."
Shen Lian nodded slightly, "As long as his mind is smart enough and his brain capacity is big enough, he can even judge the strength of the armies of various countries."
"In this case, passing the information back to Tiandi Pavilion will definitely play a very important role for Tiandi Pavilion to target us."
"Aren't you worried!?"
Tianji said, "Aren't you worried that Beidou will really know about the situation of the Alliance army and let him test it!?"
"What do you think!?"
Shen Lian blinked at Tianji and asked with a smile.
Tianji frowned and was confused about Shen Lian's thoughts for a moment.
She always felt that Shen Lian seemed to be planning something, but she couldn't guess what Shen Lian was thinking.
But she knew that Shen Lian must have a plan, and Shen Lianyuan was definitely not the kind of person who would let others succeed.
For a bad guy like Shen Lian, making his enemies collapse is what he likes to do the most.
"I always feel like you are slandering me in your mind."
Shen Lian touched his chin and looked at Tianji and said.
Tianji's face changed slightly, and she turned her head and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I have so much free time!?"
"hehe."
Shen Lian laughed inexplicably and ignored Tianji.
He watched the battle on the walls of Xin'an City. As more and more alliance soldiers climbed up, the Xin'an City army was already at a disadvantage.
The battlefield gradually moved from the city wall to the stairs, and soon it would reach the ground inside the city.
Once it reaches the ground, the city will be opened instantly.
At that time, the army will march straight in, and Xin'an City will change hands in an instant.
Xin'an City will be destroyed!
However, Xin Tianji’s goal should have been achieved.
When attacking a city, the siege strength of the alliance army can be judged.
Even based on the clothes of the army, it can be judged which countries' soldiers are braver and which soldiers are timid.
The direct battles on the city wall can judge the ability of these soldiers to fight head-on.
Later, when the city gate is opened, it is estimated that the alliance army's street fighting capabilities can be tested.
During the entire battle, by observing the conditions of the various armies, we can also judge their coordination.
It can be said that he can use the lives of the soldiers of Xin'an City to test the strength of the alliance army at the fastest speed.
Then, next, Xin Tianji should consider retreating.
It's time for you to take action and have some fun!
The battle continues.
"superior!!"
After Xue Rengui saw that the alliance army on the city wall had gained an absolute advantage, he ordered again for the next wave of soldiers to attack the city.
The number of soldiers attacking the city this time was 200,000.
There are 200,000 troops. 100,000 people are like climbing up the city wall.
The remaining 100,000 were waiting in front of the city gate.
It is clear.
Xue Rengui believed that these armies were enough to open the gates of Xin'an City.
Once the city gate is opened, these 100,000 troops can directly enter Xin'an City from the city gate.
The battle will suddenly change from siege fighting to street fighting.
Everything is developing according to Shen Lian's prediction.
With the arrival of this wave of soldiers, it was obvious that the soldiers of Xin'an City could no longer resist.
The battle on the stairs was losing ground.
Finally, the next moment, the soldiers of the alliance army rushed down the stairs and officially entered Xin'an City.
"Open the city gate!"
There are soldiers from the alliance army coaxing you!
The city gate suddenly creaked and opened slowly.
As the city gate was opened, Xin'an City's defense battle was considered a complete failure. (End of chapter)
