I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 248 Chen Liu's Attack
Sure enough, when Li Shimin saw the enemy's Perak chariot was dispatched, he immediately ordered to destroy the enemy's Perak chariot, pulled out the nail, and removed the obstacles to the siege.Destroying the enemy's catapult means that the tiger has pulled out its fangs, the threat of siege is greatly reduced, and the casualties are naturally much smaller.

Immediately, the operator of the catapult readjusted the elevation angle, and added weight to the power storage device of the catapult, adding two huge stones, which is equivalent to strengthening the force of the lever, and the hit will naturally go further.

"Shhhhhhh..." The catapult artillery fire continued to extend towards Chenliu City, hitting the position of the enemy's thunderbolt chariot, but this is not like the artillery of later generations who can accurately calculate the position of the enemy's artillery positions through ballistics. I can make an estimate.

The shooters like Li Shimin were lucky, and the shelling accurately destroyed more than half of the thunder chariots. Yu Jin was completely dumbfounded when he saw that his own thunder chariots not only failed to defeat the enemy effectively, but more than half of them were destroyed, so he hurriedly ordered to withdraw the thunder chariots.

Yu Jin was completely bewildered, not only failed to blow up the enemy's catapult, but also lost his ace weapon in vain, which was really useless.

Li Shimin's catapults continued to output intensively for an hour, and Chen Liucheng was riddled with holes. Fortunately, Chen Liucheng was tall and thick, so it did not collapse.

After the bombardment was over, under the command of Zhao Yunling Banner, five thousand dead soldiers of the former army pushed the ladder cart, and under the strict protection of many shield soldiers, they attacked Chenliucheng aggressively.

While besieging the soldiers in front of the city, a huge crossbow was pushed to the forefront, and the powerful crossbows fired again, aiming at the top of the city like a long-range missile, about to cover the attack of the dead .

Yu Jin hid under a solid low wall, paying close attention to the enemy's situation all the time. When he saw the enemy's catapult fire ceased, and saw a group of soldiers pushing a huge ladder cart up, he knew it was the enemy. The attack began, and he quickly shouted: "The whole army is going to the city, ready to defend the city, hurry up..."

The defenders, who had been smashed to pieces, staggered up to the top of the city. Thousands of crossbowmen drew their bows and set arrows, and their sharp arrows pointed directly at the densely packed enemies rushing from the bottom of the city.

Seeing that the enemy troops under the city had already rushed within range, all the crossbowmen straightened up, and the bows and arrows were ready to fire. The captain of the city guard, who had just drawn out his sword, was about to shout smartly: "Fire the arrow..." Unexpectedly, the huge crossbow arrow fired by the enemy's bed crossbow flew over with a whistling step, as if the god of death was beckoning, chilling and frightening.

"咻...咻...咻..." The huge arrow pierced through the void, and under the huge friction with the air, it made a terrifying sound, "Puff..." It hit the top of the city, hit On the defenders.

This sudden blow really disrupted the rhythm of the enemy's defense, and caused huge damage to the enemy all at once.

Thousands of huge crossbow arrows easily reimbursed more than 1000 crossbowmen of the enemy. Some of them were directly nailed to the top of the city by the huge impact force, and died of excessive blood loss.

Under the suppression of long-range firepower, the siege soldiers directly attacked the city with minimal losses, and climbed up the top of the city along the ladder made of cloud ladders.

Until this time, Li Shimin's bed crossbow was afraid of hurting his own people, so he stopped the terrifying power of the bed crossbow.

Under two consecutive blows, the defenders were beaten dizzy, and the fear of the Bingzhou army had begun to spread in the army. After all, the damage of this terrifying weapon was really terrifying to him. Who wouldn't be afraid?

In the panic, the soldiers at the top of the city were scolded by the captain of the city guard, and they took up their weapons one after another, ready to start fighting. It also began to show its power, and the cruel siege battle was about to break out.

Facing the enemy's sparse arrow rain and thunderstones, the siege soldiers rushed to the top of the city shouting, and immediately began a bloody battle.

Yu Jin saw that the momentum of the defenders at the south gate was a little weak, and they were defeated by Bingzhou. He immediately mobilized [-] defenders from the west gate and east gate to support him, and he himself led [-] guards to rush forward.

The soldiers of Bingzhou were indeed brave and fearless. With continuous efforts, they finally rushed to the top of the city, and immediately fought fiercely with the defenders. At first, they fought against the enemy, but as the enemy's follow-up reinforcements arrived, The fierce offensive momentum was still contained.

Li Shimin saw that the offensive momentum of Nancheng was contained and attracted the enemy's firepower and attention. He immediately ordered to increase the offensive at the South Gate, and sent [-] fierce soldiers to join the siege army.

The Bingzhou Army who rushed over later, holding their shields, followed the ladder car and continued to fight towards the top of the city. The two sides started a stalemate at the top of the city. There are more and more, constantly squeezing the enemy's defense line, and no one can do anything to each other.

Li Shimin has been paying close attention to the changes in the battle situation. Seeing that it will be difficult to break through the storming of the South Gate in a short time, Li Shimin immediately launched a backup plan to give full play to his superiority in strength.

Immediately, the army divided into three groups, of which [-] infantry from the left and right armies, led by Gao Lan and Qu Yi, rushed towards the west gate and east gate.

The army spread out in a fan shape, like three sharp blades slashing at the enemy without hesitation, "Ho Ho Ho..." Under the dense and compact shouts, the tens of thousands of troops moved quickly in a uniform manner, and quickly adjusted to the offensive at a unified pace. Location.

Immediately, Gao Lan and Qu Yi commanded the soldiers under their command to launch a charge. Ten thousand vanguard troops took the lead, and more than a dozen ladder vehicles rushed towards the city wall against the enemy's sparse arrows.

At this time, because Li Shimin's offensive force on the front has reached [-], and the enemy army is overwhelmed, half of the manpower has been transferred from the west gate and the east gate to support, so the strength of the west gate and the east gate is somewhat small. Stretched.

At this time, it is too late to mobilize, and if we divert the troops from the south gate to the other two gates at this time, then this place will inevitably fall.

Yu Jin couldn't care about anything else, and the last reserve team was ready to stay, and the last reserve team of more than 8000 was about to be sent out to help the west gate and east gate.

The defenders of the west gate and east gate were also suppressed by several crossbows that were brought in. The power of the crossbows was extraordinary, causing huge casualties to the enemy.

Seeing the suppression of the siege weapon, the Bingzhou army rushed to the bottom of the city smoothly, and Dang even rushed to the top of the city in an orderly manner along the ladder car.

Thanks to the suppression of long-range firepower, the Bingzhou Army basically climbed up to the top of the city smoothly, and started hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. Power.
