Chapter 199: Fight to the Death

"Kill!"

The shouts like a tsunami penetrated the night and rushed towards the top of Yanguan City. Read М

It spread far and far in the quiet air.

The Yanguan soldiers were tense at this moment, and their hands holding the weapons could not help but exert force.

Mo Yu stood behind the battlements of the city wall and commanded the soldiers.

The broken stones, rolling logs, and kerosene were all brought up.

Although the walls of the South City are much weaker than those of the North City.

But its height and thickness are almost the same as those of the walls of Yan County.

As long as the command is proper, he believes that he can hold on until the arrival of the Wangfu army.

"Shoot!"

The shouts of killing are getting closer and closer, and Mo Yu ordered.

More than 2,000 archers on the city wall immediately bent their bows and shot arrows.

Based on the loudness of the Yuan family soldiers' voices, they judged the distance between the Yuan family soldiers and themselves.

"Swoosh..." The sound of arrows breaking through the air sounded on the top of the city.

Then they heard a shrill scream in the darkness.

The Yanguan soldiers were about to shoot the second arrow, when they also heard the sound of arrows breaking through the air.

"Shield bearers." Mo Yu shouted.

At the same time, other generals conveyed orders.

The shield bearers on the city wall immediately raised their shields and protected themselves and the archers under the shields.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang..." A burst of arrows fell like raindrops.

Compared with the number of archers in Yanguan, the number of archers in the Yuan family's army was obviously greater.

The arrows lasted for dozens of breaths before stopping.

In the dense rain of arrows, many Yanguan soldiers were hit by arrows, and they lay on the ground of the city wall and wailed.

Although there were many casualties, the generals were still in order due to repeated drills.

They continued to order, "Shoot!"

The shield bearers put down their shields, and the archers fired another wave of arrows.

At the same time, Mo Yu was directing the soldiers to pour kerosene from the city wall.

The shouts of the Yuan family soldiers were getting closer and closer.

Just as they finished, they saw Yuan's soldiers carrying ladders to the foot of the city and leaning them against the city wall.

Yuan's soldiers began to climb up along the ladders.

"Torches!" The generals shouted one by one and passed on the order.

Torches were thrown under the city wall.

Immediately, a flame ditch along the base of the city wall burned.

"Ah..."

The Yuan soldiers who rushed to the foot of the city were stained with kerosene and immediately burned, screaming in the flames.

The ladders were also ignited by gunpowder, but the Yuan soldiers behind them continued to climb the ladders and kill towards the top of the city.

"Freely shoot arrows."

"Throw stones."

"Aim at them with muskets."

"..."

Orders were passed down one after another, and suddenly the broken stones, arrows, and stone bullets on the city wall poured down like raindrops.

"Ah..."

Yuan's soldiers kept screaming, and under the intensive attack, the first wave of siege suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

But at this moment.

The soldiers suddenly found a fire in the darkness.

Then there were muffled sounds, from the Yuan family's muskets.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Stone bullets kept falling on the city wall, hitting the ground, the parapets, and the soldiers of Yanguan.

Because it was dark, they couldn't see the trajectory of the stone bullets at all, so they couldn't dodge.

"Clang, bang, bang..." Another muffled hum came, and the Yuan family's muskets continued to fire.

Stone bullets continued to cause casualties to the soldiers of Yanguan.

Mo Yu was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

They caused a large number of casualties to the Yuan family soldiers, and the Yuan family soldiers also caused casualties to the Yanguan soldiers.

War is a bloody battle.

Outside the city wall.

Guo Tu watched the battle on the top of the city in the dark.

The second wave of Yuan family soldiers suffered heavy casualties and were quickly repelled.

He immediately organized a second wave of charge, and such charges would continue in waves until he took down the Yanguan city wall.

"Yuan Xiu, tell the soldiers that whoever climbs the city wall first will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver and promoted five levels." Guo Tu said in a deep voice.

This time, the Yuan family is desperate and has no way out.

The only way is to break through Yanguan.

So, no matter what the cost, he must take Yanguan.

"Yes, sir." Yuan Xiu turned and left, conveying Guo Tu's order to the generals, and the generals conveyed it to the soldiers.

There must be brave men under heavy rewards. Some Yuan family soldiers immediately screamed and wanted to rush to the top of the city immediately.

"Where is the death camp?" After giving Yuan Xiu the order, Guo Tu shouted loudly.

A general came forward and knelt in front of Guo Tu, "Sir, I am here."

"Blow up the city wall." Guo Tu shouted.

"Yes." The general turned and left after hearing this.

Back in the camp, he immediately led his soldiers to follow the third wave of charging soldiers to approach the city wall.

But these soldiers are different from other soldiers.

They were not holding swords, but tools such as pickaxes and mattocks.

When they approached the city wall, they did not climb ladders, but dug the soil and covered it with burning kerosene.

To pave a path, they used pickaxes and mattocks to dig on the city wall.

Mo Yu discovered this situation at the first time, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his body.

He said to a lieutenant general, "The generals of your camp are specifically responsible for dealing with them. We must not let them dig big holes in the city wall. They want to blow up the city wall with gunpowder barrels."

"Yes, General." The general left immediately.

Immediately, some Yanguan soldiers were organized, and they raised stones to throw at the soldiers who were chiseling the city wall.

The battle was fierce.

At this time, a general came hurriedly from the north.

When he came to Mo Yu, the general panted, "General, the Beidi army has arrived at the city."
