"Woo~Woo~"
Before dawn, a sharp horn sounded through the sky, outside the towering city walls of the capital, Yingzhou's army set up a formation, a piece of black and black, ready to attack the city at any time.
Donglan's capital is built according to the river, the rushing river has become a natural barrier, and the city wall is designed and built by the master builder invited from Zhongzhou, the whole city is like an iron barrel, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Yingzhou's army has been here for two days, and has attacked the city before, but because it is only the vanguard force, it is just trying to feint, and there is no large-scale attack, and today, Yingzhou's army has been assembled, and they are not willing to wait any longer, a huge offensive and defensive battle officially began.
The 200,000 army doesn't seem to be much, but it's still very shocking to really see it, standing on the city wall and looking at the black oppression, there is no end in sight, and it is very oppressive.
Yingzhou is a phalanx with 500 soldiers, the front phalanx is a mixed formation composed of the lowest-level ashigaru, the front row is a strong ashigaru holding a large shield made of bamboo and wood vines larger than a person as a guard, followed by dozens of people carrying bamboo ladders, these ashigaru wear long bamboo spears, short rib inserts, wearing a hat hanging from a circle of linen cloth, and the armor on the body only protects the key parts, they are all recruited by fishermen and farmers, with low social status and low-level infantry.
And behind these ashigaru is the samurai regiment, they are the elite of the Yingzhou army, these samurai themselves are even the aristocratic class, not only equipped with a stainless steel sword that sharpens iron like mud, but also wears gorgeous and strong samurai armor, protecting themselves tightly, Yingzhou is prevalent in the way of samurai, these samurai have practiced martial arts since childhood, although the number is small, but all of them are vigorous, strong in force, not to be underestimated.
In the majestic military formation, a general wearing black iron armor and a half-moon horn warrior helmet was mobilizing before the war: "Ladies and gentlemen, we Yingzhou people are talented and full of martial virtues, but we can only cower on the islands of the land of four projectiles, and the people on these continents are obviously weak but can enjoy endless resources, this is an injustice from God!" Now, the general has unified the four islands and is our hero, and today, we will imitate him as a hero, expand the territory, and kill whoever dares to be our enemy!" The
general raised the fan-like iron army in his hand and waved it forward and shouted: "Warriors, raise your arms and shout, raise the banner of the general! We will stand under the banner and let the enemy feel the taste of facing Shura!
The soldiers in charge of the front row were excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood under the encouragement of the general, and they shouted and carried the bamboo ladder and ran forward. In this first attack, Yingzhou sent a full ten square array of soldiers, including three siege cloud vehicles and a city breaker.
Yingzhou's siege cloud chariot and city breaker are all wooden frames, covered with a layer of iron sheet for protection, and equipped with wheels underneath, which can be pushed forward by soldiers, among which the city breaker is like a low small house, the center is only a stout large wooden stake with a rope hanging with iron sheets, and the soldiers are hiding in it to push the cart, and the siege cloud cart is more like a huge tower that can be moved, the center of the cloud cart is empty, only a narrow staircase can be crawled by one or two soldiers, and the soldiers climb to the upper floor through the stairs, compared to the unobstructed bamboo ladder, the cloud cart is safer, and the top of the cloud cart is a small attic-like hutThe periphery of the house is wrapped with a layer of iron sheets, and there are arrow holes in front of it, so that the soldiers can shoot arrows inside the house, and when the cloud chariot is close to the city wall, they can use a ladder to build on the city wall, and the soldiers can directly rush to the city wall.
Yingzhou is not as rich in materials as the mainland, and there are not so many skilled craftsmen who can make such exquisite siege equipment, which seems to be inevitable for Donglan.
Liu Xinghe and Huang Fu Lie stood at the head of the city, looking at the dense enemy army, his scalp was also a little numb, Liu Xinghe was okay, after all, he had already experienced the battle of defending the city when he was in Jiang Chu State, but Huang Fu Lie was the first time to command the battle, after all, it was under his father's wing before.
"Don't be nervous, just do what I teach you. Liu Xinghe nodded at Huang Fulie and let him relax.
Huang Fu Lie took a deep breath, took a step forward, and when the enemy army reached the attack range, he drew out the long sword on his waist and shouted: "Release the arrow!" With Huang Fu
Lie's order, the archers at the head of the city drew their bows like a full moon, and shot at the rushing Yingzhou soldiers all over the head, and the rain of arrows poured down from the city wall, although the soldiers of Yingzhou hid in the front row of the big shield and the cloud car, under the battering ram, but it was still to no avail, and the screams were everywhere for a while, and many soldiers were shot into hedgehogs.
In the face of the rain of arrows like flying locusts, the soldiers of Yingzhou advanced with difficulty, and finally came to the city wall after leaving a corpse, those ashigaru immediately set up a bamboo ladder to climb the wall, but before they could go up the ladder, they saw countless wooden rolling stones falling on the city wall, and Yingzhou's ashigaru was either directly knocked down from the ladder and fell into flesh, or was smashed to the point of splattering brains.
After losing hundreds of people, the cloud car finally reached the city wall, a heavy wooden ladder set up the city wall, the Yingzhou Ashigaru in the cloud car jumped out excitedly, he was proud of attacking the city, suddenly looked down, only to see countless armored swordsmen lying on the side of the city wall, that Ashigaru just wanted to run was pulled down from the city head and sealed his throat with a sword.
Yingzhou's ashigaru jumped from the cloud car to the city wall one by one, they all became the souls of those armored swordsmen, these armored swordsmen are not ordinary soldiers, they are all transferred from the national protection army and the royal forest army, they are the elite of the elite, which is what these miscellaneous soldiers can fight against, in less than half an hour, three cloud chariots, three phalanx ashigaru were killed completely, and no armor remained.
Liu Xinghe ordered to throw all the corpses of the Yingzhou soldiers on the city wall to the city, looking at the corpses in one place, the morale of those Yingzhou foot light immediately collapsed, and they all threw away their armor and fled in all directions, all of them hated why their parents didn't give them two more legs, they ran too fast, causing the city-breaking hammer to be burned by Liu Xinghe with tar.
"Baga Yalu, don't retreat!" Looking
at the fleeing soldiers, General Yingzhou was so angry that his muscles burst out, and he immediately killed a few fast ashigaru with his horizontal knife, which barely suppressed them.
At this time, a general in blue-black armor came behind the general and said, "General Shimazu Teru, please don't be angry, sure enough, it's not appropriate to attack rashly." Shimazu
Hui turned his head and looked at the other party and said angrily: "Then what should I do, is it possible not to attack the city?" "
General Shimazu doesn't have to worry, the siege will be handed over to me Nagazong and my department." Changzong and my department turned around confidently and said to the soldiers behind him: "Let's go, let the group of soldiers of Donglan Kingdom learn the archery technique of my Changzong and my department."
"Phalanx transformation!" A
warrior came to the front with an arrow in his hand to deliver the order, only to see the phalanx at the front of the Yingzhou soldiers begin to retreat in an orderly manner, and then several phalanxes behind began to advance.
These phalanxes were lined up in two columns, the first column was a group of ashigaru, about four or five hundred people, divided into three rows, they were armed with short bows, wearing bamboo armor, although the equipment was much better than those ashigaru, but it was only an extra layer of iron on the bamboo armor.
Liu Xinghe looked at the approaching Yingzhou archer, frowned, he waved his hand at Huang Fu Lie, Huang Fu Lie immediately let the soldiers on the city wall who had a huge physical exhaustion retreat, and then from the city tower, many energetic soldiers poured up to make up for it.
When Yingzhou's bowfoot light was about fifty or sixty meters away from the city tower, they immediately opened their bows and arrows and began to shoot at the top of the city wall, but the Donglan defenders were not to be outdone, and fought back, relying on the towering city wall, plus heavy armor and strong bows, those bows and feet were not the enemy of the defenders' archers at all, just a few rounds of arrow rain, those bows and feet lost most of them, and then hugged their heads and ran away.
Nagamune's Ibu Yaichi frowned as he looked at the scattered and fleeing bow-foot, but he didn't expect these low-level archers to be able to deal with the well-trained and well-equipped guards of the capital in the first place, his purpose was to let these bow-shots attract the attention of the archers on the city walls, so that the longbow warriors behind him could enter the range of fire without damage.
Yingzhou longbow warriors, this is Yingzhou's elite archers, they are wearing heavy armor, holding half-man-long lacquer bows, the range is extremely long, can reach one hundred and sixty to one hundred and eighty meters, and they also use heavy arrows, and the armor-piercing ability is extremely strong.
In addition, the Changzong family is the strongest bow and arrow family in Yingzhou, and the Changzong family is the best at bow and arrow skills, and their warriors have to train their bows and arrows for up to five hours every day.
"Come on, warriors, let these cowards who can only cower on the walls of the city take a look at the marksmanship of our Changzong and my department. "
As soon as Changzong Yayi pulled out the longbow in his hand and shot at the city wall, he only heard the sound of the 'bell', and a military flag on the city wall was broken.
"Hahaha, release the arrow!" Changzong
and my arrows gave an order one by one, and the Yingzhou longbow warriors lined up in two rows, opened their longbows and shot at the city wall.
"Damn, the other party's attack is too fierce, what should I do?"
Huang Fulie suddenly ran out of ideas, so he had to let the soldiers hide under the wall.
"Hmph, that's it, you're afraid?" Liu
Xinghe shouted, snatching a bow from a shooter and walking to the fallen city wall.
'Huh'.
A feather arrow flew in, Liu Xinghe grabbed it, and then opened his bow and said to the surrounding soldiers: "Watch me
shoot the team leader on the opposite side!" I saw Liu Xinghe shoot an arrow, impartially hitting the team leader in one of the opponent's phalanxes, and even the feather arrow also shot the person behind through the opponent's body, and then pierced through and shot one person, a string of three, directly scaring the people next to him.
