But as soon as he showed his head, he was shot by the archers of the Xiangyang Army.

The Xiangyang Army on the ground took the opportunity to climb up the ladder. Just when they rushed halfway, they saw a huge rock falling down.

They screamed and fell down from the ladder, and there were many casualties.

General Guo looked calm and sent another 10,000 troops to attack from the other side of the city wall.

The city wall was tall and solid, but not wide.

Although General Guo had more than 100,000 troops, he could not press on it all at once, and the city wall could not be deployed.

Forcing a rush would only result in their own people trampling on their own people.

Now send the vanguard to test and consume some of the opponent's city defense equipment, and then increase the troops when the opportunity arises.

At this time, the Tianjin Kingdom army defending the city had sufficient physical strength and fully prepared equipment.

The more people attack the city, the greater the casualties.

Although the strength of the Xiangyang army is more than ten times that of Caizhou City, it meets the military principle of "ten times of siege" in the art of war.

However, attacking a city is never an easy task.

Many strong cities are often not broken, but they are finally captured after the enemy's equipment is exhausted, food and grass are exhausted, and they are unable to fight again.

If Zhang Tian had not accompanied the army, General Guo would definitely not have the confidence to capture Caizhou City.

This city alone would take ten days and a half months. Once the reinforcements arrived and the food supply was cut off, the army would have to retreat.

In history, Caizhou City was besieged for as long as 5 months.

The Jin army defending the city still held on without any support and running out of ammunition and food.

In the end, they killed the old, young, women and children in the city and mixed them with mud as military rations. The Song army outside the city used food as bait and finally captured it.

Zhang Tian looked through these historical materials and frowned slightly.

If I don't take action, I'm afraid I'll have to spend months on a city.

No wonder General Guo looked calm and didn't worry about his soldiers dying in vain. I'm afraid he had expected it.

The first wave of attempts ended quickly, and General Guo called back his troops.

Prepare to switch to the second wave of troops to attack.

Zhang Tian said: "Tiedong, you will be mixed in the army and attack the south wall. There are only stones and no hot oil over there."

"Your armor should be fine."

Tiedong grinned and said: "Yes, sir."

As he said that, he was still carrying the long column on his back, holding a steel knife, and mixed in with the shield.

"Kill... Brothers... Come on..."

The second wave of siege began.

Tiedong approached the wall, but did not climb up immediately.

He saw the opportunity and saw that there was a gap in the stones thrown above. It is estimated that the stones in this gap have been thrown and are being moved from the side.

Tiedong made a prompt decision.

Hanging a steel knife on his waist, holding the ladder with one hand, he shouted: "Brothers, send me up."

"Huh!!"

The team below was well prepared, and they worked together, and the whole ladder was immediately lifted high from the ground and rose towards the city wall.

"Pah!"

The ladder hit the city wall hard, and Tiedong's body shook, but he did not fall down.

At this time, he was only one or two meters away from the top of the wall, almost within reach.

The Caizhou defenders saw it and shouted: "Someone is coming up, hurry up, spear!"

Suddenly, several spears stabbed at Tiedong.

Tiedong turned around quickly and dodged several of them, but there was still a spear stabbing at his body.

If it were an ordinary soldier, without heavy armor to protect him, I'm afraid this would be able to pierce his body.

Tiedong only felt a slight tightening of his body, but did not feel any pain.

But there was a force trying to push him off the ladder, so he quickly twisted his body to resist the force of the spear.

Taking advantage of the gap before the spears were retracted, Tiedong took a few steps and jumped high from the gap in the city wall.

The Tianjin Kingdom defenders on the wall had a flash of thought: What kind of fool would die like this?

I saw several spears stabbing at Tiedong.

It’s not that there were no soldiers climbing up the city wall before, but ordinary armor couldn’t withstand it, and they were easily picked off the city wall by the spears.

Niu Er, General Guo and others who were wearing heavy armor might be able to withstand the first wave of attacks.

But the heavy armor was too heavy, and it was impossible to climb the city wall flexibly.

Only Tiedong’s sealed cotton shield was as light as nothing, and it was elastic to absorb the impact.

Seeing several spears stabbing in the air, Tiedong did not dodge or avoid.

He pulled his hand to his waist and the big knife was immediately in his hand.

At this moment, the spear had stabbed Tiedong.

The Tianjin soldier only felt the spear bounce, but his body was not pierced, but the opponent was picked up to the other side.

As soon as Tiedong landed, he was immediately full of heroic spirit.

"Hahahahaha... look at my immortal swordsmanship!"

As soon as the voice fell, he used his feet to gain strength from the ground, and suddenly crashed into the group of Tianjin soldiers like a dragon.

A pair of steel knives flew up and down, slashing the nearby soldiers.However, the crowd was dense, and Tiedong was stabbed more than a dozen times.

If it was an ordinary Xiangyang soldier's shield, even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured.

Even if he didn't hit the vital part, the force of the big knife on his body was enough to shock his body.

But Tiedong was not injured. Instead, he took advantage of the enemy's force and used the essence of the one-armed sword technique to constantly shift his center of gravity.

His whole body changed, and he moved and attacked. Every time he attacked, the angle was beyond the expectations of ordinary people.

Many Tianjin soldiers instinctively slashed at Tiedong, but Tiedong turned to the other side at the critical point.

Wherever he passed, only corpses were left.

After a while, a more than ten-meter-long open space was cleared on the top of the city.

The morale of the Xiangyang army attacking the city on the ground suddenly soared, and they shouted: "Hurry up... Brother Tie is clearing the way for us... Hurry!!"

Several ladders were set up here.

The soldiers rushed to climb up the ladder.

The Caizhou garrison commander in the distance saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly shouted: "Spear formation, hurry up and attack the spear formation!"

"Ho! Ho! Ho!"

On both sides of the city wall, two teams came at the same time, holding spears and approaching Tiedong.

The spears were like the thorns on a hedgehog, densely packed, leaving no room for Tiedong to perform his one-armed swordsmanship.

Tiedong secretly thought it was not good.

If he was attacked from both sides at the same time, even if the spears could not pierce the "divine armor" given by the immortals, he would probably be picked off the city wall.

Falling from a few feet high city wall is also dangerous.

Tiedong shouted: "Come on!"

He picked up the body of a Tianjin soldier with one hand, took a few steps, and threw it towards the nearest spear formation.

"Stab!"

The spear formation instinctively blocked the body, and several spears picked up the body in the air.

Tiedong waited for this opportunity.

Ignoring the spear attack next to him, he squeezed into the spear formation.

As the saying goes, "An inch longer, an inch stronger", the most typical example is the spear.

Before the breakthrough, the spear was almost a sharp weapon in the cold weapon legion.

However, there are two sides to a story, and it is impossible to take all the advantages.

As the saying goes, "An inch shorter, an inch more dangerous".

This is what Tiedong is like.

Beyond the killing range of the spear tip, the spear is not as good as a long stick.

Long sticks are generally not too long, and they can be swung to block.

Spears are too long and are not suitable for use as sticks at all.

Suddenly, the spear formation was in chaos.

The leader shouted anxiously: "Retreat quickly and keep your distance."

But Tiedong would never give them another chance. He flashed in human form and rushed up to the spear.

"Quick... use the knife, use the knife!"

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

The Tianjin soldiers threw away their spears, drew their swords, and turned into a knife net to cover Tiedong.
