Chapter 30 Three Conditions

Just two hours after the camp was captured, the Turkic army launched its first large-scale attack. Fifty thousand troops rolled towards Dali City like black tides, with one hundred ladders and fifty nesting vehicles mixed in. This time, the attack on the Turks did not go all out, and neither the ladder nor the siege rams were put into battle.

The Turkic soldiers held their shields high, and 20,000 soldiers in the city held spears and swords in their hands. Their morale was high. Behind were 30,000 archers, who were responsible for covering them. Amid the shocking drums of the "dong!dong!dong!dong!', they lined up toward the city of Li in a dark line.

The ladders and nest cars were pulled by the strongest horses and slowly walked among the crowd, followed by hundreds of people behind each ladder and nest car. The drums seemed to hit the huge wooden wheel, accompanied by waves of shouting and killing, the Turkic army rose and fell like waves, with great momentum.

The Sui army dug three trenches in one meter wide two miles away from Dali, but these three trenches could not stop the Turks. They put thick wooden boards on the trenches, which immediately lost their function.

Still one and a half miles away from the city wall, the drums suddenly became dense. The 50,000 Turkic troops rushed towards the city wall. The defenders on the city wall watched the Turkic troops nervously and expectantly, as if waiting for something to happen.

One hundred and eighty heavy trenchers on the front of the city began to squeak and twist the thick cables, and the long propeller bent backwards, and the accumulated potential energy reached the extreme.

Outside the city was a piece of weed, with people at their knees. The Turkic army rushed forward. Thousands of people rushing in front suddenly wailed and fell to the ground. They stepped on the caltrops scattered in the grass. There were four inches long spikes on this caltrop. When scattered on the ground, there was always a spike facing upwards. The caltrops were refined in a highly poisonous way. Once they were stabbed, they were disabled at the least, and at worst, they were fatal.

In addition to the caltrops, there are countless caves of horses. A three-inch-long poisonous iron thorn was inserted into the hole. Many Turkic soldiers stepped into the hole, and the long spikes pierced the insteps. The attack on the Turkic army was caught off guard. More than a thousand people fell down and howled. The mourn was everywhere, and even more terrifying was that their legs began to turn black and swollen, and the pain was unbearable. Many people rolled and howled for a moment. Then they died of poisonousness.

"Cut off their legs!"

Amutai shouted loudly, his bloody thighs were cut off, and the injured Turkic soldiers were dragged back one after another. At this moment, a strange sound came from the sky, as if it was the sound of a flock of pigeons circling in the sky.

The Turkic soldiers looked up at the sky, and saw small black dots appearing in the sky, roaring towards their heads, getting closer and closer. A terrifying shout suddenly broke out from the Turkic army, which were actually huge rocks. They ran around with their heads and flew down, and a huge rock weighing thousands of pounds was smashed down. They rolled and bumped into the crowd, screaming, blood plasma splattered everywhere, and several people were hit into flesh mud. The huge rocks knocked over dozens of people in a row, and the worst was seriously injured, and nearly two hundred huge rocks rolled in the crowd. The Turkic army suffered heavy casualties. Immediately afterwards, the second wave of huge rock groups roared again.

A huge rock on his head pressed against the top, and there was a hidden murderous intent on the ground. The Turkic army was one mile away from the city, and more than 3,000 people were killed or injured. Amutai was extremely heartbroken, and he shouted, "Retreat!"

Tens of thousands of Turkic troops retreated like a tide, and the Sui army on the city cheered...

"Get it down!"

With Duji's order, dozens of guards rushed forward and dragged Amutai, who had just rushed back to the camp, and fell to the ground.

Duji's eyes flashed with murderous intent, staring at him and said coldly: "I have not ordered the withdrawal of troops. How dare you withdraw without authorization to shake our morale? Are you impatient in your life?"

Amutai raised his head and shouted: "Khan! The Sui army had poisonous stings on the ground. We were not prepared enough, and thousands of people were killed or injured."

"The dead and wounded can be used as the prelude to the army behind. You dare to retreat without authorization, shake the morale of the army, and push it down and chop it down for me."

The soldier dragged Amutai down. Amutai saw Duji's cold gaze. He suddenly understood and shouted, "Duji, you killed me on an excuse. My tribe members will not spare you!"

Before he finished speaking, a big man chopped off his head with a knife, chopped off his head. Duji sneered and said to everyone behind him: "The news of blocking Amutai's death is not allowed to spread it."

He said to the ten thousand men's commander Mengda again: "Tata's 30,000 troops will be handed over to your commander. I will attack the city again. I will send another 30,000 troops to cooperate with you!"

"As for the order!"

Mengda turned over the horse and pointed a spear at the city wall, "Beat the drum to attack!"

The Turkic army's attack drum sounded again. Driven by tens of thousands of guards, the 30,000 troops of the Tata team were forced to turn around and kill towards the city. Shibi Khan sent another 30,000 troops to join the attacking team, turning into a 60,000 army to attack Dali City. The ladders, nest cars, and stone catapults mixed in the army. The 60,000 troops were as dense as an ant colony, and they were vast and covered with the wilderness outside Dali City.

This time, the Turkic army became smart. They paved the road with wooden boards and paved dozens of boards, so that the Turkic army could escape the assassination on the ground, but they could not escape the stonehenge above their heads. Hundreds of huge rocks roared from the sky, rolling among the Turkic crowd, blood and flesh flying, screams resounded throughout the field. A nest car was concentrated by huge rocks. The nest car blossomed in the air, giant trees flew around, and the bodies flew in the air. The nest car scattered, and another cloud ladder was hit, the ladder was broken, the wooden platform was pierced, and the two wooden wheels fell off. The huge body of the cloud ladder was tilted and could no longer move on the ground.

One after another, huge rocks hit the crowd, and shrill screams kept coming. The huge fear caused the morale of the Turkic army to decline. Many Turkic soldiers turned around and wanted to run. Duji was prepared. Three thousand guards held swords and pressed the formation behind them. Nearly a hundred Turkic soldiers who escaped from the formation were chopped to the ground.

The Turkic army had no choice but to bite the bullet and charge forward. As the Turkic army advanced forward, the archery battle between the two sides broke out. Ten thousand Sui troops fired arrows down on both sides of the battlements. There were archery outlets on the wall of Dali City, which could be used to cover them. The crossbows shot arrows at an elevation angle behind them. The Turkic army had the advantage of the dense number of people. The arrows on both sides were like rain, woven into a black net of arrows in the sky. The Turkic casualties were heavy, and the Sui army also suffered casualties, and people kept screaming and being shot at arrows.

In the dense rain of arrows, the Turkic army began to cross the moat and approach the city wall. To the Turks' surprise, the moat had no water, just a large trench two meters deep and five meters wide. However, whether there is water in the moat is no longer meaningful to the Turkic army. They put on wooden boards that were as long as three meters long, causing the moat to lose its defensive effect.

At this time, dozens of large siege ladders and nest chariots rumbling. One nest chariot was loaded with fifty Turkic soldiers, each holding a spear and a shield, and more than two hundred people were shooting arrows upwards.

The nest car slowly approached the city wall, less than fifty steps away from the city wall. At this time, the forty stone cannons of the Sui army began to exert their power. The stone cannon was actually a super-large bed crossbow. The stone cannon was one meter long and the bow arm was one meter long. It was made of beef tendon or hemp rope and placed on a specially built turret. It was manipulated by ten militia soldiers and was wound with a winch.

The stone cannon fires a polished and smooth stone bullet, weighing about fifty or sixty kilograms and a range of up to seventy steps. There are special soldiers responsible for range measurement and aiming.

"Here is here! Here!"

A fire chief pointed at a slowly approaching nest car and shouted: "Win the strings and aim them!"

Eight soldiers pushed the long winch rod like a mill, and the huge bowstring was creaking and squeaked open. He pressed on the string hook, and a soldier fed a stone bullet into the shooting trough. The fire chief was also aiming his hand. He lay on the crossbow, staring at Wangshan, and shouted: "Twist the east half a moment!"

There is a scale on the ground behind the stone cannon, and the soldiers lifted the stone cannon and moved east for half a moment.

"Okay!" Huo Chang shouted.

He jumped off the stone cannon, stared at the nest car for a moment, and shouted, "Flame!"

The two soldiers pulled out the string hook suddenly, and with a loud "click!", a stone bullet flew out strongly from the shooting trough, roaring towards the nest car fifty steps away.

‘Boom!’ There was a loud bang in the ground, and the nest car was hit by a stone bullet. A pillar and beam broke. The nest car shook violently and continued to move forward.

"Damn it, come back!"

Huo Chang cursed, and ten soldiers were stolen again, but the direction did not need to be adjusted. Another stone bullet shot out strongly, hitting the nest car again. He was shot twice in a row. A belt tied to the beam of the nest car was finally released. The nest car instantly tilted and collapsed, and fifty soldiers screamed and fell down.

The soldiers below cheered and praised the power of the stone cannon. The long-bolt scratched the back of his head and cursed with a smile: "His grandma, he actually needs to do it twice!"

.........

Although the Sui army's stone cannons were powerful, they could not destroy all the ladders and nest cars. Several nest cars finally arrived on the city wall. The iron plate fell and smashed on the top of the city. The gravel flew around. Behind the iron plate, fifty Turkic soldiers rushed out of the nest cars with their spears, and hundreds of Sui soldiers killed from both sides and fought fiercely with the enemy.

The nest car is actually a closed city ladder, with a steady stream of Turkic soldiers rushing out of the nest car and killing towards the top of the city.

Seven or eight cloud ladders were set up on the city wall in a row. Turkic soldiers climbed the cloud ladder soldiers rushed up frantically. Sui soldiers waved their swords and spears to fight against the enemy troops rushing up. On the horse wall, dozens of Sui soldiers took crossbows and shot Turkic soldiers on the stairs from behind. The powerful crossbow arrows shot through the wooden shields, and Turkic soldiers kept screaming and falling down from the city.

The battle gradually became bloody and tragic.

Yang Yuanqing stood on the high viewing tower and watched the offensive and defensive battles of Dali City. He had experienced many battles and saw the battle in front of him. Although there were constant enemy siege weapons on the top of the city and Turkic soldiers began to kill the city, Yang Yuanqing knew very well that the current situation was not out of control, and the situation was still within his control. It was normal for the Sui army to suffer casualties, and there was no war without casualties.

A lieutenant rushed to the viewing platform and knelt down on one knee to report: "Report to the general manager, the brothers have suffered more than a thousand casualties. General Yang requested more troops to support!"

Yang Yuanqing said coldly: "Tell Yang Sien that there will be no more soldiers in my country. If he can't stand it, then he can come down and let Ma Shao be the main general."

"Abide by the order!"

The captain agreed and ran down. Yang Yuanqing's eyes turned to the Turkic camp in the distance. He was the commander of the entire battle and was in charge of the overall situation. He did not interfere in the specific battle on the city. He just stared at the main force of the Turkic forces. There were only ten ladders left on the battlefield, and less than twenty ladders were left. However, Shibi Khan did not increase their number, and the attacking rams and ladders did not appear. This means that this Turkic attack was just a temptation, and he would never increase his troops.
