Tuo Tuohaer saw Jin's soldiers attacking the section of the city wall that was hit hard by artillery stones.
Due to the continuous attacks, most of the wall stacks and defensive facilities on the city were destroyed, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. The entire city wall defense was very empty.
At this time, the main force of the Jin army, holding their shields and braving the sporadic rain of arrows from the city, had arrived in front of the moat.
The soldiers of Jin who rushed ahead and carried the flying bridge quickly laid the flying bridge on the moat. Several flying bridges were lined up side by side to allow large siege equipment to pass.
The Jin army was extremely fast. As soon as the flying bridge was laid, siege towers and ladders followed one after another, and they rushed directly to the bottom of the city.
"Fire the arrows! Fire the arrows!" Tuotuoha'er waved his sword and roared loudly, "Young friend Yang, lead your troops to reinforce immediately!"
The Mongolian troops on the city kept firing arrows at the Jin soldiers below the city.
However, Zhao Tai and Wuxian only attacked a section of the city wall, so the Jin soldiers who were far away could only watch the show and be anxious, unable to stop the Jin soldiers from attacking the city.
After Yang You got the military order, he quickly led his men and horses to reinforce the stormed city wall. But when they were about to approach, arrows from the city shot up like raindrops, knocking over a large number of Sergeant Li's soldiers.
According to Zhao Tai's wishes, Wuxian arranged a large number of archers under the two ends of the attacked city wall to block the enemy reinforcements coming from both sides.
The Jin Army archers did not attack the city, but hid behind their shields, bent their bows and nocked arrows, and fired waves of arrows at the city wall.
The number of archers who can stand on the city wall is limited. The number of golden archers standing outside the city wall is several times that of the city head. The arrow rain completely suppresses the city head.
At this time, the Mongolian archers on the city wall were suppressed and squatted behind the wall stacks, firing back from the shooting holes from time to time. Several Mongolian soldiers running in front wanted to rush through the area covered by arrow rain, but were knocked down by the hanging arrows. .
Seeing this, Yang You quickly stopped, and a large number of reinforcements were blocked by the continuous rain of arrows.
He saw the city walls covered with dense arrows and the bodies of the soldiers who had been shot dead. The Mongolian soldiers who were still alive were either hiding behind the wall or squatting on top of the wall with shields filled with arrows. They were completely suppressed by the dense rain of arrows, and he felt in his heart. I couldn't help but be extremely anxious.
At this time, he saw that the Mongolian army rushing in front was knocked down by the rain of arrows, and the attacking Jin soldiers were approaching the city wall with their siege equipment. He couldn't help but become anxious in his heart, and hurriedly waved his sword and roared, "Quickly, take the shield and charge with the shield. past!"
The Mongolian soldiers at the top of the city carried their shields and passed through the area where the Jin army's bows and arrows were fired, and came to the section of the city wall that was attacked by the Jin army.
With a "bang" sound, the Jin Army's siege tower hit the city wall, and the baffle pulled up at the top was immediately lowered and placed on the city wall.
As soon as the baffle was released, the Jin army inside swarmed out and fought with the Mongolian army.
In the first round of attack, the Jin army rushed to the top of the city, which made Wuxian and Zhao Tai who were in the middle army happy. However, although the Jin soldiers rushed to the top of the city, once they were in close combat, the disadvantage of having many new soldiers became apparent.
The Jin army rushed to the top of the city, and the Mongolian army held up shields and door panels and passed through the city wall covered with arrows. Reinforcements continued to come, making it impossible for the Jin soldiers to open up the situation.
This was the first time Zhao Tai planned to attack the city. When he saw this, he turned around and said: "Brother, it seems that we only attack a section of the city wall, not the city gate, or launch a feint attack from other directions to contain the defenders in the city. It will be difficult to attack the city by force." !”
Wu Xian nodded slightly, "This attack is mainly a test. If we can rush forward, it is already good. If we continue to prepare, we should be able to capture Pi County within three to five days!"
Zhao Tai immediately said: "Then call for gold and withdraw the troops!"
Wu Xian did not hesitate, "Ming Jin!"
The golden sound of the Jin army rang out, and the attacking troops immediately retreated across the wilderness.
The Mongolian army drove the Jin army off the city. Tuotuohaer couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha~"
Before he could stop laughing, the cannons adjusted their strength, and with a flick of the pole, more than a dozen boulders hit the city head again.
"Fuck you, squat down!" an officer roared, and several soldiers threw Totuo Ha'er down and pinned him directly underneath him.
Almost at the same time, stone bullets fell with a roar, hitting the dense crowd at the top of the city. The scene was horrific.
The Mongolian troops who came to help were attacked by artillery and rocks before they had time to cheer, and suffered heavy losses.
Tuotuohaer got up, looked at the chaotic city head, twitched the corner of his mouth, and shouted loudly: "Don't panic!"
Having said that, he hurriedly left this section of the city wall, and the garrison on the city immediately evacuated, leaving only a small number of soldiers hiding shivering behind the wall stacks.
Yang You came up and said, "Qianhu, this is not good! The enemy's artillery vehicles are bombarding concentratedly, making it impossible to defend that section of the city wall! And with this method of smashing, I'm afraid the city wall won't be able to withstand it and will be smashed down!"
Tuo Tuoha'er looked at the Jin Army's artillery array. The artillery carts kept stopping, and the gunners took turns to operate, throwing pieces of artillery stones into the air and slamming them into the city.
He watched the wall stacks being thrown away and the wall being dented, feeling the vibrations of the city wall, and said with a dark face: "Don't be afraid! Tonight I will lead the cavalry out of the camp, rob the enemy camp, and destroy all their artillery vehicles." Burned."
Outside the city, the Jin soldiers who attacked the city retreated, and hot dishes and meals were prepared in the camp.
Although this attack did not break the city, the morale of the soldiers was high.
Because Zhao Tai arranged it properly, this group of new soldiers suffered little loss, and they also attacked the city. Overall, they suppressed the Mongolian army.
This gave them a good war experience and made them confident.
At this time, smoke was curling up in the military camp, and the retired soldiers were eating big cakes and drinking broth. More than ten of them gathered around, talking about the battle just now, and bragging about how brave they were just now.
Xu Erzhu and others have been spectators for a day today. Listening to the Wuxian Department boasting about their boasts, they felt uncomfortable and felt that the cakes in their hands no longer tasted good.
At this time, Zhao Tai came over to inspect. Xu Erzhu quickly stuffed the big cake in several mouthfuls, drank the broth, then touched his mouth and came to Zhao Tai, "Ms. sir!"
Zhao Tai glanced at him, "Is something wrong?"
Xu Erzhu scratched his head and said, "Ms. sir, why are the soldiers and horses of Lord Hengshang today? Why don't you assign a task to the brothers?"
Zhao Tai smiled when he heard this: "Didn't I arrange for you to cheer for me?"
Xu Erzhu was anxious, "Mr. sir! If the brothers of the Wuwei Army can charge to the top of the city, so can our loyal army! Let others do the shouting and cheering! The subordinates don't want our brothers to be called showy by the people of the Wuwei Army!"
This time Zhao Tai brought a thousand people, 500 elite soldiers, and 500 auxiliary soldiers. All of the elite soldiers were wearing infantry armor given by the Song Dynasty. Compared with Wuxian's army, they were armed to the teeth.
However, although Zhao Tai's subordinates were well equipped, they did not show their due strength, so Xu Erzhu and others were often laughed at by their brothers in the armed guards.
Seeing this, Zhao Tai smiled and said: "You are wearing heavy armor and it is inconvenient to attack the city! Let's do this! Now let the brothers have a good rest. I will give you a task tonight!"
When Xu Erzhu heard this, he immediately clasped his fists with joy, then returned to the team and happily told his subordinates.
