C428 Attacking the City
"Wuuuuu ~"
A bugle horn sounded outside the imperial city of Great Zhou Dynasty. All the people in the city were restless, as if they were afraid that the imperial city would be breached.
The soldiers standing on the city wall all had a solemn expression as they looked at the bottom of the city wall.
Below the city wall was a huge army. The soldiers standing on top of the city wall looked down from top to bottom, and they could not see the end of the army.
Beneath the solemn expression was a fearful heart.
"Don't panic, everyone!" The general standing on the city wall shouted at everyone, hoping to ignite their fighting spirit.
However, it was useless because there were too many enemies. There were at least a few hundred thousand, and the Great Zhou Dynasty army only had a few hundred thousand!
This was the difference!
In the army below, there were a few people riding tall horses. They raised their heads and looked at the situation above the city. After a while, they looked at each other.
The person in front was the commander of this army. Behind him was a figure that Lin Rann was familiar with, and that figure was Guo Chen.
After the commander finished looking at the city, he said to the few people around him, "How is it? Can you see anything?"
"Ah?" The others were a little confused by the leader's words. What happened?
Guo Chen cupped his fists and said, "This city was built according to the mountain, so the city is bigger. And judging from the current terrain, our current location is very unfavorable to us. As long as we start attacking the city, it will be easy for them to defend and hard to attack while we will be in a lot of trouble. "
"That's right." The leader sighed. "We also know that this city is easy to defend and hard to attack. The current situation is very unfavorable to us, but Your Majesty still let us. Forcibly launch an attack and let us take over the city in the shortest time possible! But this is easier said than done! "
The surrounding generals were all silent, not saying a word.
They also knew that this city was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but this was Your Majesty's order, and they had to carry it out.
"This is Your Majesty's idea after all. We will carry it out." The leading general said with a helpless tone. He had more or less guessed what Your Majesty was thinking. It was to use the death of the female emperor of Great Zhou Dynasty to make the other cities surrender!
But how could this be possible?
In the eyes of this general, even if the Empress Su Xin of Great Zhou Dynasty was killed by his men and the imperial city was contributed by them, those cities that had already been occupied would still not surrender.
Those who guarded those cities were all generals of Great Zhou Dynasty. All of them had military power in their hands, and if they surrendered, they would lose their military power. This was something that none of the generals were allowed to see.
If Empress Su Xin of Great Zhou Dynasty was killed, not only would the world not become peaceful, it would also be possible that the flames of war would continue to burn, and it would become even more chaotic.
The generals of Great Zhou Dynasty who were guarding the cities would all rebel, turning into a force of rebellion.
Although their forces had been divided and became smaller, they were still unable to withstand the number of rebels.
However, there was nothing they could do. This was Your Majesty's decree. They couldn't disobey it. They could only continue to carry it out!
The leader drew the sword from his waist. He raised the sword high and shouted, "All lecturers have it!"
Among the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, the leader's voice was very low. Maybe the soldiers behind could not hear him.
But there was no need to be afraid. They had a special messenger!
After the leader shouted, the messenger soldiers continuously passed his orders to the back.
The leader swung the sword in his hand down fiercely, bringing along a strong wind. The tip of the sword was pointed at the Great Zhou Dynasty Imperial City, and he shouted loudly, "Attack the city!"
Those who stood at the front started to attack after hearing the command of the leader.
Each of them held a shield in their hands, and they charged forward with all their might. Moreover, two or three of them carried scaling ladders on their backs.2
The suicide squad that they were all attacking the city held a shield in one hand and raised it high to protect their heads. Their other hand carried a scaling ladder as they desperately charged forward.
Most of these suicide squads were willing to join without any relatives or relatives, or even death row criminals. They joined the suicide squad because they were similarly afraid of death.
They had to charge at the front, but it was very easy for them to be attacked. Especially when they were attacking the city, those arrows could easily injure the members of the suicide squad.
As for why they joined the suicide squad, there was no other reason. It was for money, as long as they didn't die on the battlefield. They would be able to get rich money, and everyone knew that joining the suicide squad... It was very easy to die, but they still had the mentality of being lucky.
And those condemned prisoners were trying to survive, because as long as they joined the suicide squad and charged forward on the battlefield, and if you survive, then you can become a free body. No matter what mistakes you commit, you will be caught!
"Ah!"
The members of the suicide squad rushed forward desperately with siege weapons in their hands, as if they didn't care about their lives.
Three members of the suicide squad carrying a huge wooden stake rushed to the bottom of the city in the blink of an eye and used the huge wooden stake in their hands to ram into the city's gate.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! One, two, and three!
Many of the soldiers standing on the city wall were scared silly. They had never seen such a scene before.
Most of the soldiers on the city walls were new soldiers.
When they took down this city, many soldiers of Great Zhou Dynasty were killed or injured, so they trained many new soldiers. This batch on the city wall was the first to be trained.
The generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty had never thought that the enemy would attack them so quickly.
These soldiers who had never been on the battlefield were instantly scared silly.
They did not even shoot arrows when faced with the assault of the suicide squad.
"What are you doing!?" The general immediately kicked a stunned recruit to the ground and scolded loudly, "What are you standing there for? Didn't you see that the enemy has already attacked the city? Hurry up and shoot the arrows! Don't tell me you want to let them in! "
"Yes!" The soldiers roared and drew their bows!
