Chapter 794 (1/2)
Yan Yan angrily scolded for a while, and yelled: ”the whole military affairs must guard Fuling City. I will swear to live with Fuling City!”
Seeing the old general vowing not to surrender, thousands of Yizhou soldiers in the city were also excited by Yan Yan's spirit, and they all raised their arms and cried out, expressing their will to defend the city to the end.
”It's a pity that mantis can't understand the current situation.”
Zhang jaw shakes his head, the expression is full of firmness, word by word.
”Whole, army, attack, city!”
”Attack the city!”
Since the Liangzhou army set out, it was not willing to go back without success. In the array, they launched well bars, siege vehicles, ladder cars and other siege equipment. Surrounded by tens of thousands of Liangzhou troops, they slowly moved forward and surrounded Fuling City. The guards on the top of the city knew that they had to fight a tough battle today, and they all had a good psychological standard Preparation.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Naturally, the archers of the two armies are the first to launch attacks. As long-range attack arms, both Liangzhou army and Yizhou army's archers pour their own arrows at each other. According to the principle, the Liangzhou army should occupy a disadvantage as the siege side, but the siege equipment is to make up for the deficiency.
One by one, the archers of the Liangzhou Army stood on the wooden platform above the well bars and poured down the rain of arrows at the head of Fuling City. Yizhou soldiers on the top of the city raised their shields and hid behind the women's wall. Anyone who dares to run out must be shot into a hedgehog by the enemy.
After the Liangzhou army's arrow rain suppressed the Yizhou army on the head of the city, the ladder cars were slowly moving forward under the heavy armored soldiers, leaning against the wall of Fuling.
Many Liangzhou soldiers climbed the ladder to advance upward. Naturally, the guards on the top of the city could not easily get them up and throw down rolling wood and stone. Many Liangzhou soldiers were hit by the falling rolling wood and stone, and fell to the ground with a howl, while more Liangzhou soldiers were silent.
After paying a part of the casualties, the first batch of Liangzhou soldiers finally attacked the city and started a fierce battle with the garrison. Yan Yan personally supervised the troops in the front line. Naturally, Yizhou soldiers refused to retreat and rushed forward to fight with Liangzhou soldiers. The short distance between the wall and the top of the wall seemed to turn into a flesh and blood quagmire for a moment. The two soldiers with ferocious faces fought each other in this small world and did not give in.
More and more Liangzhou troops boarded the city. Fuling City was on the verge of falling for a moment. Yan Yan even had to fight in person in case of crisis. It was not easy to contain the attack of Liangzhou army.
Although Wu Lan's 3000 soldiers were completely annihilated, there were still more than 4000 Yizhou soldiers left in the city. Even if Liangzhou soldiers were powerful and powerful, they could not take them down for a while. After all, there was only a little distance above the head of the city, so tens of thousands of Liangzhou army could not be spread out on the plain, so they failed to win Fuling City on the first day.
However, Zhang jaw was never discouraged. Instead, he changed his posture of encircling without attacking. Instead, he personally went to the front line to supervise the battle every day and ordered the tens of thousands of Liangzhou troops under his command to launch a fierce attack on Fuling City. After all, Wu Lan's 3000 troops and horses had been completely wiped out, and the number of troops in the city was suddenly reduced by nearly half, making it much easier to attack the city.
Since Yan Yan refused to surrender, there was nothing to say. First, he concentrated his forces to capture Fuling City, and then to attack Jiangzhou city!
Zhang jaw led the army to attack fiercely for two days, and the garrison in the city suffered more than 1000 casualties. He was about to hold on. Fortunately, the Yizhou army in the Wagang stronghold was in a great hurry after learning about it, and quickly sent troops to attack the Liangzhou army in order to alleviate the crisis of Fuling City.
