Subsequently, Qin Qiong arranged for five thousand soldiers to go down to the city, and drew tens of thousands of strong labor force from the people of Goguryeo City to drive the catapult wooden female sword and the Saimen knife cart.

All these equipments were rolled out of the city, ready for battle.

They also asked them to move up the rocks and logs and fasten them to the city wall with ropes.

These equipments are very heavy, Qin Qiong and Li Xiuning will naturally not let their soldiers consume unnecessary physical strength for such things.

Although the ordinary people in Dandong City didn't want to help the Sui army deal with their own people, they were still ordinary people after all. If they didn't obey orders, they would be slaughtered.

Although they hated the Sui army very much, what can they do?

This is how the world is.

Goguryeo's army invaded the cities of the Great Sui country, and they all did this, even more than the Great Sui army.

at the same time.

Outside the city, the Ulchi Mundeok Department is also ready to attack the city.

Crash cars, pontoon bridges, and heavy crossbows are also ready.

A big battle is about to break out, and the air seems to be filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

"Heavy crossbow strikes—"

Suddenly, a series of warning sounds sounded on the walls of Dandong City.

The soldiers who heard the sound fell down one after another.

bang bang bang-

In just a few seconds, the heavy and powerful heavy crossbow bolt hit the thick wall of Dandong City, sending out violent vibrations.

Because the city wall of Dandong was built with giant stones stacked on top of each other, and the thickness reached an astonishing ten meters, the heavy crossbow could not penetrate it at all.

But such a thick city wall always has its weaknesses.

Although the heavy crossbow arrows were not densely packed, they were extremely powerful. Qin Qiong and Li Xiuning led the soldiers and dared not show their heads at all.

Immediately after the Ulchi Wendeok heavy crossbow troops fired their bows, the siege troops also rushed around the moat, connecting floating bridges to build the moat with a width of [-] meters. They didn't have enough floating bridges, so they made two into one.

The torrential water washed away some soldiers from time to time, but the soldiers behind continued to rush forward without stopping.

Finally, after two hours of construction of the pontoon bridge, the heavy crossbow troops finally stopped firing.

"Come on, take Dandong City!!"

Some of the generals drew out their swords and charged forward with a roar.

Thousands of soldiers crossed hundreds of pontoon bridges at the same time, rushed to the bottom of the city wall, and were shot by Sui soldiers behind Mu Nudao with their own bows and arrows.

shhhhh--

Hundreds of bows and arrows fired in volley, and the row of soldiers rushing to the front fell down in unison in an instant.

Soldiers of the Sui army shot frantically through the perforations on the wooden board of the Munv knife, but even so, it still didn't help.

Chapter 233 The Terrible Goguryeo Army

A large number of Goguryeo soldiers were too fierce. After a few rounds of shooting, they rushed over and blocked those perforations.

They actually blocked it with their bodies!

This scene shocked Qin Qiong and Li Xiuning deeply.

This is where Goguryeo soldiers are different from Western Turkic soldiers. Ye Fan said that this defense battle was much more brutal than in Western Turkic, and it seems that he was right.

Goguryeo soldiers are so crazy, and their fighting will is much stronger than that of Western Turkic soldiers.

Afterwards, Goguryeo soldiers began to build a ladder, and then climbed up crazily.

"Sister Xiuning, they're climbing up! Why don't we use the catapult?"

Dou Xianniang asked anxiously.

"The catapults are used to smash the pontoon bridge. Wait for their soldiers to come over and then smash their pontoon bridge, so that they will never come back!"

Li Xiuning explained calmly.

Seeing Li Xiuning so calm, Dou Xianniang suddenly felt relieved.

Although I haven't known Li Xiuning for long, Dou Xianniang knows her very well. As long as Li Xiuning is calm, it means she must have confidence.

At this time, Ye Fan suddenly led the Eighteen Guards of Yuntian to come.

He also lost his composure when he learned that the Ulji Mundeok Division had started to attack the city violently.

He had to command the army himself to be at ease.

Seeing Ye Fan coming, Li Xiuning and Qin Qiong both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, you commanded very well."

Seeing the current situation, Ye Fan couldn't help sighing from the bottom of his heart.

Qin Qiong and Li Xiuning are indeed veterans who have experienced many battles. Although they are young, their military command skills are really not covered.

"Although your command is good, there are still many loopholes. Xiuning, you lead a thousand soldiers to supervise the construction of the dam in the north of the city for me."
