The Human Emperor

"The whole army follows the order and retreat!"

With the help of this wave of cover, the remaining heavy infantry of less than 30,000 immediately maintained the formation and retreated in an orderly manner.

Although the formation is faltering and may be shattered at any time, all the heavily armored soldiers maintain a high degree of discipline.

"boom!"

Along with the roar of steel, the huge gate of the steel fortress opened again, and the formation was shattered. All the remaining heavy infantry lined up in a neat line and safely evacuated into the steel fortress.

Boom, when the huge steel city gate was lowered again, there was a burst of noise and winch sounds. Outside the steel city pool, there was no longer any Datang army.

When all the troops retreated, the roar of steel sounded, and the entire battlefield fell silent.

"Send the army, postpone the attack!"

Behind the army, Cui Ganyou was dressed in iron armor, his eyes flashed, and he ordered without hesitation.

The 40,000 heavy infantry has retreated, and there is no point in chasing after them. There are still many things to deal with, including the reorganization of the army and the subsequent siege.

Following Cui Ganyou's orders, the marching speed of the army slowed down significantly.

...

"Next is the real offensive and defensive battle!"

In the cold wind, Prince Shaobao stood on the head of the city, looking at the corpses and all kinds of heavy debris outside the city, and said with emotion.

War is always cruel. In this battle, the nations have added more than 200,000 corpses, and the Tang Dynasty also left nearly 10,000 soldiers.

This is the cruelty of war.

Even the side that occupies an overwhelming victory has a price to pay.

However, Wang Zhongsi soon had no time to care about this. The battle just now was just a "warm-up", and the next battle will be more cruel, and as the commander-in-chief of the army, he has to prepare.

Wang Zhongsi quickly turned and left. On the wall, Wang Chong only nodded slightly, his eyes quickly focused on the battlefield outside the city.

There was no plan to withdraw troops on the other side of the countries. After such a short time, new changes occurred on the battlefield.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by the sound of wheels rolling, the crowds separated from the dense and vast army of nations outside the city, and cars rushed to the front with huge rocks piled on top.

"boom!"

Pushing and lifting the car, the huge rock on the car immediately rolled down and plunged into the tunnel in front of the steel fortress, which was densely covered with long steel spikes.

Bang bang bang!

In a short period of time, thousands of huge rocks have fallen into the potholes.

"It's the catapult at the back! They pushed the rocks there to the front!"

General Tong Luo's expression condensed, and he suddenly spoke.

The catapult does not act alone, but is equipped with a large number of trolleys to help transport the rocks used for throwing.

The League of Nations has clearly found that the use of catapults to throw can easily be intercepted by the archers on the front of the city. As a result, the plan of filling the tunnels with catapults cannot be realized at all, or the efficiency is greatly reduced.

Therefore, the trolleys that transported rocks were directly pushed to the front line and sent directly into the tunnel.

"Xi Yuyu!"

However, everything is far from over. Albus has just finished saying this sentence, and a burst of fierce horses neighs from the army of the opposing countries. In the eyes of everyone, several East Turkic horses marched together. , They dragged a huge iron rope, fell with a rock in the middle, dragging hard, immediately pushed a large number of corpses in front of the battlefield into the pit through the force of the horse.

There was only a loud impact, but in the blink of an eye these tunnels filled up a half. Seeing this scene, even Albus was moved.

Filling the tunnel with corpses is indeed an efficient method, but it is a bit too cruel, and most of the corpses in the field are their own.

"Do you want to stop it?"

Albus turned his head and looked at Wang Chong beside him.

The opponent's commander was far colder than imagined, and he did nothing to achieve his goal. If this continues, I am afraid that the tunnel will soon cease to exist.

"No need!"

Wang Chong shook his head with an extremely cold voice:

"From the moment the pit is exposed, it is destined to be filled, let them come!"

Most of the corpses of the heavy infantry were brought back during the retreat. The corpses left outside the city were the corpses of various countries. They had to use this method to fill the pit, even Wang Chong could not stop it.

And it makes no sense.

"The order continues, the siege is about to begin, and all the troops are ready to fight!"

Wang Chong said lightly.

In the distance, as a large number of corpses were pushed into the pit, the entire long tunnel was filled at an astonishing speed.

"grown ups!"

In another part of the army, a general of the East Turkic Khanate was faintly unbearable, and subconsciously looked at the general Tieqi Suleli beside him.

Among the countries, the East Turkic Khanate has the most troops and the bow horse is the most skilled. They are also the ones who do this work. More importantly, there are also many East Turkic soldiers.

"Let him go!"

Tiqilili's eyes flickered, and he quickly recovered his composure, his steely face, without the slightest waves:

"I just received the news that more than 500 miles south of Chita, the largest pasture in the entire Khanate has been frozen, and we can no longer graze. Now the Khanate is beheading excess cattle and sheep. It will not be long before we will There will be no more live cattle and sheep, and the East Turkic steppes can no longer go back."

"The top priority is that we can only survive by destroying Datang and occupying their land! In contrast, corpses are nothing."

As a nomad, the East Turkic Khanate has its own understanding and noble rituals. Such random landfill is an insult, but now and then, it is no longer time to care about these things.

"General, all the tunnels have been filled!"

A moment later, a voice rang in his ears, and a Turkic iron riding hoof splashed into a rolling blizzard, and soon appeared in front of Tiqi Seleli.

Tiqi Lili blinked his eyes, and quickly turned back:

"Pass the order, prepare to attack the city!"

"Woo!—"

A desolate horn sounded, and along with the drums of war, the armies of the countries moved slowly from slow to fast, preparing to attack the city again.

In the previous battle, even though a ghost cavalry was damaged, it was far from hurting the nations.

The only troublesome thing was that in the previous battle, 40,000 Datang heavy infantry bypassed the line of defense and destroyed at least 10,000 shield vehicles.

This is the biggest loss of the nations in the previous battle.

However, in this war, the preparations made by the various countries were far more adequate than expected, and what the 40,000 Datang heavy infantrymen destroyed was only the wheels and axles of the shield cart. As for the front, there were a lot of solid inscriptions and defensive formations. The thick steel plate is not so easy to damage.

"Boom!"

The earth roared, just more than three hundred meters away from the steel fortress, and the snow and fog were rolling. The countries regrouped and rebuilt the defense line. With tens of thousands of shield carts as the front line, the shield soldiers holding large shields and the tower carts were behind. To assist in defense, including the Golden Wolf Army, Maruto Army and other top arms are in the rear, and the generals and brigadier generals such as Tian Qianzhen, Tiqi Lili, and Gao Zao are organized and plundered, and all the troops advance forward.

"kill!"

The sound of shouts and killings shook the sky, and this time, the nations quickly crossed the long pit.

This time, despite the fact that there is no obstacle, the countries are much more cautious.

"Hoof!"

Hearing only a rush of horseshoes, I saw all directions. At the same time, almost five or six hundred horses were draped in thick armor, protecting every inch except the eyes, and there was a rein dragging a heavy boulder behind. , Rushing towards the steel fortress ahead at an alarming speed.

"Huh, learn smart!"

Above the high steel fortress, Wang Chong just sneered and said nothing more.

The nations have suffered, and this time they are obviously smarter.

The war horse first explores the way and puts armor on the war horse to prevent arrows, and the boulders dragging behind can also trigger and detect the potential organs one by one.

Shoo!

Waves of arrows pierced through the sky, one wave, two waves, three waves..., after a few waves of arrow rain, even though these horses were draped in thick armor, they were finally shot and killed on the battlefield, only a few. The horse rushed to the steel fort, but was still shot.

"no problem!"

From the rear of the army, Cui Ganyou had been watching the front. Seeing this scene, his eyes flashed, his palm waved down, and he gave the order to continue advancing again.

Although the war horse was shot, he had already got the information he wanted.

——At least for now, there are no more traps other than the trap.

"boom!"

Following Cui Ganyou's order, the armies of the nations changed their previous caution this time, roaring one by one, and advanced at full speed.

Two hundred and sixty feet!

One hundred and twenty feet!

Forty feet!

...

The distance was getting closer and closer. At this time, there was no retreat. All the soldiers rushed forward frantically. The soldier in the front had already figured out the rope for climbing the city wall from his waist.

As soon as the battle started, all the soldiers had their hearts hanging up, and a large number of shield soldiers raised their heavy shields aloft, forming a huge “shield” covering the warriors of all countries from below.

As for the locomotives, Cui Ganyou temporarily put these precious siege vehicles to the end.

——The threat of the giant crossbow is still too great.

However, amidst the screams of killing, one siege ladder, one after another, approaching tens of thousands, was carried by many soldiers, coming towards the steel fortress at an astonishing speed.

At this moment, the siege intention of the various countries has been revealed.

Defend with shield carts and shield soldiers, and use a large number of climbing ropes and siege ladders to attack the city head. When the battle is together, the upstairs carts will move forward and send more soldiers directly into the city head through the internal passages. The offensive and pressure of the steel fortress, and then find a way to open the city gate, invade it in one fell swoop, and then there will be a decisive battle between the nations and Datang to determine the fate of each other!

All of this has been deduced many times before, and the loss is definitely within the controllable range.
