    Although the Qinghe army gradually became regularized from a group of mobs, in fact they have not fought a decent battle, and they lack the weapons to attack the city.

    When encountering a low county town, they can go down in one go with a large number of people. Facing the provincial capital with a high city and thick walls, rushing up in a mess will only increase casualties.

    Facing the strong bow at the head of the city, the 5,000 soldiers of the first offensive echelon suffered heavy casualties before they even got close to the city wall, and had to retreat.

    Seeing the Qinghe Army soldiers receding like a tide, the dynasty defenders at the top of the city couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.

    Luo Dagang, the deputy general in charge of commanding the siege, stared at the retreating soldiers with a gloomy and terrifying expression.

    Luo Dagang still wanted to add a lot of color to his military achievements by capturing the provincial capital, but who knew he kicked the iron plate.

    "Who told you to withdraw?!"

    Seeing the first battalion general whose arm was pierced by the heavy arrow of the wolf tooth, Luo Dagang asked loudly with a dark face.

    "Master Lieutenant General, those bastard's broken arrows are too powerful, and the brothers have suffered too many casualties." The general of the first battalion replied panting.

    "Retreat without authorization against our military order, pull down and hit with fifty army sticks!"

    Luo Da didn't want to listen to the explanation of the first battalion general just now. If it wasn't for the fact that he was also the commander's confidant, he really wanted to cut him down with one knife as a warning to others.

    Several soldiers who were like wolves and tigers rushed up and knocked the battalion general to the ground, and he hit him directly with heavy military sticks.

    "Luo Dagang, if you have the guts, go up and try, what kind of hero is it to beat me!"

    This battalion general is also a rebellious leader, and at the same time, the confidant of Marshal Zhang Dayuan.

    Now being beaten by Luo Dagang in public with a military stick, his face is lost, and he is also angrily yelling at him.

    "Another fifty army sticks!"

    Although he didn't dare to kill the opponent, it was okay to hit him with a military stick, Luo Dagang immediately roared with a dark face.

    Soon, the battalion general's angry scolding turned into a painful wail, and everyone around looked at each other in blank dismay.

    "Listen to me. He is the first offender. I have the right to spare him once. He is just serving him with a military stick. If anyone dares to retreat without authorization, I will kill him immediately!"

    Luo Dagang knew that his subordinates were a group of arrogant soldiers, so he had to warn them sharply.

    "Attack again!"

    "No!"

    Soon, the second battalion will personally lead 5,000 people, and the soldiers of the first battalion gathered together, once again rushed towards the capital with a murderous look.

    "Damn, these thieves really don't give up."

    Seeing the soldiers of the Qinghe Army rushing over again in a dense crowd with shouts, the general of the third battalion defending the city couldn't help cursing inwardly.

    "Archers are ready!"

    Soon, soldiers with swords and wooden shields quickly arrived at the city, and quickly passed the moat along the paved road.

    And those concentrated archers also quickly drew their bows and shot arrows, and clusters of arrows poured towards the city.

    "Pfft!"

    As soon as a city archer emerged from behind the battlements, sharp arrow clusters pierced his throat.

    With a "Hehe" sound out of his mouth, he fell on his back and the longbow in his hand fell to the ground.

    "Master Protection Supervisor!"

    Facing the arrows raining down from the city, the inspector Yang Fang's bodyguards had no choice but to hold shields in front of him.

    "shoot!"

    "Quickly shoot the arrow!"

    Seeing more and more soldiers of the Qinghe Army reach the root of the city wall through the moat, the garrison officers at the top of the city were anxious, shouting one after another.

    "superior!"

    "Press it up!"

    A series of ladders were quickly erected on the city wall. Many of the ladders were not fixed, and the soldiers of the Qinghe Army with swords in their mouths quickly climbed up.

    Those who charged in the front were veterans with strong fighting power. They were not afraid of the arrows at the top of the city, and they climbed up to the top of the city like apes.

    "Quick, the log! Smash 'em down!"

    Seeing these menacing faces, soldiers of the Qinghe Army quickly climbed up the ladder with sabers in their mouths, causing brief chaos at the top of the city.

    The stones and crossbars piled up behind the battlements came in handy, and they were thrown down from the battlements one after another.

    "Boom!"

    A crossbar just hit itThe soldiers of the Qinghe Army who climbed up, and the soldiers of the Qinghe Army who climbed the city rolled down heavily amidst screams.

    Most of these soldiers of the Qinghe Army who were thrown down by the crossbars and stones either fell to their deaths or were seriously injured.

    "kill!"

    "Keep going!"

    Although soldiers were constantly being thrown down, under the stern urging of the officers, a steady stream of soldiers continued to climb up.

    In just a moment, dozens of ladders leaned against the city wall. From a distance, it was covered with densely packed soldiers.

    "Hot water! Pour it down!"

    Amidst the urging of the officer at the top of the city, a large pot of boiling hot water was poured down the ladder.

    "ah!"

    The scalding hot water poured over the bodies of several soldiers of the Qinghe Army, cooling them down.

    They screamed and fell on their backs and fell off the city wall. Wherever the skin was stained with boiling water, their skin was torn apart and looked horrible.

    In addition to these scalding hot water, there are also several pots of scalding hot oil, which are also poured down together.

    The hot oil stained the soldier's body, and there was a sizzling sound immediately, directly scalding the skin and flesh.

    And these soldiers of the Qinghe Army who were scalded screamed like ghosts and wolves, and many who fell to the ground rolled all over the ground in pain, and everyone around them was terrified.

    A torch was thrown down from the top of the city, and the soldiers who were drenched in hot oil were instantly enveloped in flames, and became a running living person. People around them couldn't dodge in time, and many of them were knocked into the moat.

    The siege has reached a fever pitch. When the first battalion and the second battalion suffered heavy losses, the soldiers of the third battalion also rushed up quickly and joined the ranks of the attack.

    Although the defenders at the top of the city resorted to frequent means, causing serious casualties to the attacking Qinghe Army soldiers, in just a moment, the city was already covered with a thick layer of corpses.

    However, the attacking soldiers of the Qinghe Army had no way out. Lieutenant General Luo Dagang's personal troops had already stepped forward to supervise the battle. Several soldiers who tried to retreat were beheaded by knives in their hands.

    Now, if you risk your life and charge forward, you can still get a piece of military exploits. If you retreat, you will die in the hands of your own people.

    These soldiers of the Qinghe army who had been killed in a hurry also had red eyes, like bloodthirsty beasts, attacking the top of the city desperately.

    Although many ladders were overturned, and even many Qinghe Army soldiers on them were smashed into meat sauce, more ladders were put on the city wall again.

    Soon the first veteran broke through numerous obstacles and finally climbed to the top of the ladder.

    "kill!"

    A dynasty soldier guarding here stabbed fiercely with a stabbing spear, trying to stab the veteran of the Qinghe Army.

    Unexpectedly, the veteran dodged the stabbing spear, and the veteran grabbed the stabbing gun and yanked it.

    The soldiers of the Dynasty, clutching their stabbing guns, could not stand still. In panic, they were dragged away from the city wall and fell towards the bottom of the city.

    The veteran supported the edge of the city wall with one hand, and jumped into the city wall with one leap.

    He has a lot of experience. After landing, he rolled a few times and avoided several stabbing guns.

    "Puff¡ª¡ª"

    The veteran who escaped from the stabbing gun slashed clockwise horizontally with the saber in his hand, and three huge heads flew out high.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
