Chapter 208 Battle for the City Wall

Chen Qingzhi's order was delivered, and Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing selected the five hundred most elite soldiers and prepared to climb up from the crossbow arrows nailed to the city wall.

Zhending County is just a small city, with a height of only two or three meters. For experts like Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing, climbing the city wall is not a very difficult task.

Now that these crossbow arrows penetrate deep into the walls are helpful, it is even more difficult to climb the city wall.

"Preparation of catapults."

"Eight ox crossbow preparation."

"Boardman ready."

Chen Qingzhi was always observing the situation on the battlefield. At the most intense time on the battlefield, Chen Qingzhi gave an order.

"put."

Chen Qingzhi looked solemn and waved his hand. On the battlefield, he saw the catapults, the eight-ox crossbow, and the crossbowman shot instantly.

In an instant, I saw huge rocks, crossbow arrows, and arrows stolen from the city wall like dense locusts.

Stones as big as human heads, arrows as thick as arms, and sharp arrows rage on the city walls.

In terms of long-range attacks, the Qin army can be said to have completely crushed Cao's army. A long-range attack instantly caused heavy casualties and injuries to the Cao army on the top of the city.

The Qin army's long-range attack poured down like heavy rain, suppressing the Cao army on the city wall under the battlements. At this time, Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing had already quietly touched the base of the city wall with 500 soldiers.

The five hundred soldiers brought by Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing were the most capable soldiers under the Qin army. At this moment, including Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing, they were all shirtless and crawling towards the city with a steel knife in their mouths.

These soldiers are different from those who climb the ladders on the front. The climbing surface of the ladders is oblique and can be used to leverage force. But these soldiers are different. Their climbing surface is straight and relatively difficult to climb.

If you are wearing armor, the climbing movement will definitely be affected. Moreover, when you climb, the armor will inevitably make sounds.

It was in the evening when the Qin army officially started the general attack. After this attack, the sky was completely dark.

On the one hand, it was because of the problem of vision, and on the other hand, it was because Cao's attention was attracted by the soldiers attacking head-on. It was precisely because of this that Yuwen Chengdu and others were not discovered by Cao's army on the city wall.

At this time, just as the Cao army on the top of the city was suppressed by its own long-range firepower, Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing, with five hundred soldiers, climbed up to the city wall one left and one right. At first glance, it looked like there were many geckos hanging on the city wall.

Not long after, Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing led to the city wall, and then it was time to fight against each other.

Near the city wall where Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing and others climbed, there was a team of dozens of archers. When Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing climbed over the wall, they happened to bump into the group of people head-on.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

A shout sounded, and Yuwen Chengdu and others held steel knives and rushed towards the crowd. The sharp steel knives flashed with a cold light, harvesting life like the sickle of the god of death.

How could these Cao's archers be able to defeat these elite soldiers and powerful opponents? They were all chopped to the ground in almost a moment.

"The Qin army is coming to the city!"

"The Qin army is coming to the city!"

"The Qin army is coming to the city!"

The Qin army suddenly attacked Cao's army and caught him off guard. With Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing, two enemies of thousands, there were a group of Cao's army falling down on the city wall in an instant.

Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing got into the crowd, and it was like tigers entering the flock of sheep. These ordinary Cao army soldiers couldn't even hold on to each other. Many Cao army soldiers didn't even react to how they died.

Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing, with 500 elite Qin soldiers, raging on the city walls, soon causing chaos on the city walls.

In this case, if you want to deal with these people, you can only shoot arrows. However, at this time, the five hundred people in Yuwen Chengdu had already mixed up with their Cao army several times. If you shoot arrows, the Cao army would definitely die the most.

After Yuwen Chengdu and others came up to the city wall, chaos broke out in the Cao army on the city wall. The Cao army, who could have suppressed the Qin army on the ladder and prevented them from climbing up, could no longer suppress it.

When the first Qin army soldier climbed the wall from the ladder, it meant that Zhending County had fallen.

First, the soldiers on the first ladder climbed up the city wall, and then more than ten soldiers on the ladder climbed up smoothly. The Qin army continued to climb up the city wall and began to firmly occupy the position.

Not long after this close war, the Qin army soldiers on the city wall had begun to steadily suppress the Cao army's soldiers.

The most test of this kind of close combat is the combat quality of the soldiers, physical strength, etc. In terms of the comprehensive quality of the soldiers, the Qin army has a crushing advantage over the Cao army.

At most, it was only about half an hour. At this time, the Qin army had completely gained the upper hand on the entire city wall. On the city wall, under the command of the commander Cao Ren, Cao's army could only stubbornly guard a small section of the city wall. Moreover, seeing that this small section of the city wall was about to be unable to defend.

As the battle was delayed, more and more Qin troops were on the city walls, and the disadvantages of Cao's army became increasingly greater. Even with Cao Ren stabilizing the morale of the army, it seemed that it was difficult to restrain the Cao's soldiers. Cao's soldiers were about to collapse.

In the battles during the cold weapon era, morale is the most important thing, and morale is contagious. If a person collapses, it will soon be contagious and the people around him collapse, and the final result is a complete defeat.

"General Cao, brothers can't stand it anymore, let's retreat quickly?" At this time, a Cao army general came to Cao Ren and said.

Giving up Zhending County means that all Cao Cao's military purposes are wasted, so Cao Ren is unwilling to give up Zhending County unless he has no choice.

"Is there no way to support the North City?" Cao Ren asked.

Previously, Cao Ren sent 10,000 soldiers to the northern city wall to defend the Black Mountain Army, but at this time he didn't care about the other side, so he could only demolish the east wall and repair the west wall first, and take back the city wall here first.

"General Cao Ren, the Heishan Army is attacking Beicheng fiercely, and the defense of Beicheng is too tight to support." The sage general replied.

At this time, the Cao army on the front had already reached the Jedi, and the North City could not support it. With their ability to regain the city wall, they could only watch their soldiers fall down one by one and finally be completely driven off the city wall.
