Just as the battle became more and more bloody and the Khitan army was about to gain the upper hand, a rapid sound of gold withdrawal suddenly sounded from the Khitan camp, "Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!" The bell was very harsh. The Khitan soldiers didn't know what happened, and looked at Sun Aocao. The first thought of Sun Aocao was that the Sui army's reinforcements had arrived. He stomped his feet in hatred and shouted "Retreat!"

The Khitan army retreated quickly, and the Sui army soldiers took the opportunity to counterattack and chased the enemy who were unable to retreat. More than a thousand Khitan soldiers could not escape and died tragically on the city and under the city. More than 10,000 Khitan soldiers retreated like a tide.◇↓↓ Novel.￥f

Yang Shanhui wiped away the cold sweat from his forehead, and felt a sense of fear. Liucheng almost lost. Seeing that dozens of enemy troops and ladders had no time to take them back, he immediately made a decision: "Go down to the city to destroy all the siege weapons!"

More than a thousand soldiers climbed the soft ladder and went down the city, ignited dozens of cloud ladders and nest cars, and stabbed the undead wounded soldiers to death one by one, and then returned to the top of the city.

Yang Shanhui held the battlement and pointed to a collapsed nest cart and shouted to the Sui soldiers under the city: "There is a young general wearing a golden helmet below, dig him out!"

Several soldiers quickly found Okhayou's body and carried him to the top of the city.

The order to withdraw the troops was issued by Dahe Duluo. The reason was that his son was missing. It was Dahe Duluo's beloved youngest son. Someone saw Dahe boarding a nest car. The news immediately made Dahe Duluo go crazy. The youngest son was only sixteen years old. Seeing that both sides were killing bloodier and bloodier, could his son fight with the strong Sui soldiers?

In Dahe Duluo's mind, the youngest son is more important than anything else. Compared with his own son, the life and death of the soldier is nothing, and the gains and losses of Liaodong are nothing. No matter what the situation of the attack, he immediately ordered the withdrawal of the troops.

When the soldiers retreated like a tide, Dahe Duro was anxious and immediately urged him to come forward and shout among the retreating soldiers: "Where is my son?"

His voice was hoarse, but he could not hear his son's response. At this moment, a soldier whispered: "The little chief was shot to death by arrows and pressed under the collapsed nest cart."

Dahe Duro's heart suddenly felt a sharp pain like a torn split, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his eyes turned black and he fell from the horse.

A bloody siege was over. The Khitan army was killed 6,000 people, and the Sui army soldiers were killed nearly 2,000. The militia was killed and injured, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. However, due to the large base of the Khitan army, the casualties were severely affected, and the Sui army was no longer able to do so. Only more than 5,000 soldiers were left, while only 12,000 people were left in the uninjured militia, with a total of more than 7,000 people killed in battle, and countless wounded soldiers were numerous. The situation was not good for the Sui army defending the city.

On the top of the city, soldiers were busy repairing the catapults and stone cannons. Li Chun walked to the battlements and stared at the Khitan army camp in the distance. At this time, Yang Shanhui limped to him and whispered: "There are less than 30% of the catapults that can be used, and the situation is very unfavorable to us."

Li Chun smiled slightly, "I think the situation is not good for the Khitans."

"Why?" Yang Shanhui asked in confusion.

"Didn't the prefect find that the Khitans' siege weapons are almost exhausted?"

Yang Shanhui's heart moved and he hurriedly looked at the Khitan camp. Sure enough, he didn't see those giant nest cars and ladders, only a few scattered machines left.

He pondered, "These siege weapons should be temporarily assembled by them, and they will not be transported in the whole."

"Of course it was temporary assembly, but they had already assembled them all, using as much as they were used, and sending out as much as they were used. In this battle, they used up all the nest car and the ladder. I guess they only had some siege ladders left, but their siege ladders were only two or five feet tall, and our city was three or three feet tall, which poses no threat to us."

"But they can tie two pairs of ladders together. This is how they used the last time they siege the city, and it is still very effective."

"I asked the blacksmith to create two weapons that specialize in dealing with siege ladders, which I guess will be completed in two days today and tomorrow."

Yang Shanhui finally showed a rare smile on his face, and he said happily: "Liucheng can be saved by all means relying on the achievements of the Minister."

"Where! Just do your best."

At this time, Yang Shanhui pointed to a corpse in the corner of the wall not far away and said, "I have confirmed that the young general who died is the youngest son of the Khitan chief, named Daheyou. Can we use this corpse to talk to the Khitan people?"

Li Chun thought for a while and said, "It may be possible to talk, but I think it is not the time yet."

The Khitan was divided into eight tribes, and the Dahe tribe was the strongest tribe. Its chief Dahe Duluo became the chief elected by the Khitan tribes. Dahe Duluo called himself Songmo Khan.

This time, the chiefs of each tribe led their troops to follow Dahe Duluo to conquer Liaodong. Sun Aocao was the chief of the second largest tribe of the Khitan. His status in the Khitan was actually on par with Dahe Duluo. His name was subordinate, but he actually led his own army. He followed Dahe Duluo to conquer Liaodong. He just wanted to share his own interests.

But today's battle, his army suffered more than 3,000 people, which made Sun Aocao heartbroken. But what made him even more unacceptable was that he was about to capture Liucheng, but Dahe Duluo was worried about his son's life and retreated, which made them lose all their efforts. Sun Aocao was extremely annoyed. He no longer wanted to continue to fight, but only wanted to lead the soldiers of his tribe back to Songmo.

Sun Aocao sat alone in the tent drinking a slut. At this time, a soldier from Dahe Duluo reported at the door of the tent, "Chief Sun, Khan is welcome."

"He has returned to normal?" Sun Aocao asked coldly.

"Khan has come out of his grief."

"Hmph! What's the point of getting out?"

Sun Aocao snorted heavily, got up and walked towards the tent.

The tent was full of money, and everyone was whispering and talking about something. Dahe Duluo sat in the upper position without saying a word, his face was as gloomy as water. Although the death of his youngest son was unbearable, he was the chief of the Khitan after all, and he needed to maintain the dominance of the Dahe family in the Khitan.

Sun Aocao walked into the tent and bowed, "I'm not going to see Khan!"

Dahe Duluo waved his hand, "Just wait for the left governor, please sit down!"

Sun Aocao sat down in his seat, Dahe Duluo slowly looked at everyone, coughed gently, and the tent immediately became quiet.

"We have been besieging Liucheng for seven days. Although we have suffered heavy losses, the other party also suffers a lot of casualties. As long as we continue to attack the city, I believe we will capture it soon."

Seeing that everyone lowered their heads and said nothing, Dahe Duluo was displeased and his eyes fell on Gao Kaidao, "I think General Gao is eager to try it out. Today I will be ready to give the opportunity to attack the city to General Gao."

Gao Kaidao's face changed and he hurriedly said, "I am willing to serve, but I am too few troops. I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to capture the city alone."

"I know that General Su's army will also fight side by side with you."

Dahe Duluo knew the mistake he had made, so he was embarrassed to let other Khitan tribes attack the city. Of course, his own Dahe army did not want to use it, so he turned to force Gao Kaidao and Suzhi's army to attack the city.

Su Zhi's face suddenly became gloomy and he said coldly: "I'm afraid there are not enough weapons to attack the city."

"Of course I know that the number of siege weapons is insufficient, but did General Su use siege ladders when he first siege the city? He also attacked the top of the city, so we have enough siege ladders."

"We tied the two sieges together at that time, but the Liucheng wall was arc-shaped, and the front hook was difficult to hook, which was very dangerous."

Dahe Duro interrupted him impatiently, "Of course there is danger in war, don't explain it anymore. Today, General Su and General Gao will attack the city. I will beat the drums in person to cheer for you."

Su Zhi had no choice but to say again: "We will attack the city, but please give us the attacking hammer."

"Yes!" Dahe Duluo agreed happily. As long as the Xi people were willing to work hard, he would not worry about a few attacks on the city rams.
