The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 154
"Blow the trumpet!"
As Zhou Cheng issued the order, the strong men took a deep breath and blew the horns.
Woo - along with the low and suppressed horn sound, rows of trebuchets began to throw stone bombs at Wandu Mountain City. They weighed several Ten kilograms of stone bullets fell from the air and fell, causing considerable casualties to the Goguryeo defenders on the top of the city.
Then, the fire oil cans began to be thrown towards the top of the city.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Fire oil cans. The moment it exploded, fire oil was poured out and a fire ignited.
The top of the city instantly turned into a sea of flames.
Zhou Cheng ordered:"The trebuchets continue to hit, day and night."
In Wandu Mountain City, a large number of Goguryeo soldiers and civilians have gathered, and Gao Bogu is in the city. It seems that he wants to defend to the end.
If he attacks by force, it may be difficult to capture.
Therefore, Zhou Cheng plans to use trebuchets first, day and night. The bombardment.
As for stones, Goguryeo has no shortage of stones and there is an inexhaustible supply of them.
Under the continuous bombardment of trebuchets, Zhou Cheng did not believe that there were still Goguryeo people who dared to stay on top of the city.
……
In May 188 AD, a large number of stone bullets and kerosene bombarded the Maruto Mountain Castle every day.
The Goguryeo soldiers and civilians on the city wall suffered heavy casualties.
Gao Bogu knew that Zhou Cheng's trebuchet was very powerful, and he also wanted to organize a counterattack. It would be best to burn the trebuchet.
However, three consecutive attempts to organize the dead soldiers to leave the city failed.
The moth thief's combat effectiveness was stronger than Gao Bogu had imagined.
It is much stronger than Xianbei, Dingling, Rouran and Fuyu.
Moreover, Zhou Cheng's troops and horses are proficient in attacking trebuchets. Although they cannot say that they are always successful, their hit rate is constantly increasing.
Gao Bogu put on his battle armor and came to the city in person to watch the battle.
He is protected by a large number of guards.
Now Gao Bogu is the spiritual pillar of the Goguryeo people. If he dies or shows signs of cowardice, Wandu Mountain City will be breached.
Therefore, even if he risked his life and went to the top of the city to show off, Gao Bogu had to bravely come forward.
The king has come up to the city, so how can the Goguryeo soldiers and people not come up?
At the same time, a few days ago, under Zhou Cheng's order, a large number of Goguryeo prisoners began to pack earth and rocks in bags.
Now all these earth and stones are ready, and there are more than 100,000 bags.
At this time night falls.
Only a few Goguryeo people were left to garrison on the top of the city.
Most of the Goguryeo people were waiting under the city tower to reduce unnecessary casualties.
Zhou Cheng had already driven the Gaogulu and Fuyu prisoners to the front of the battle.
Tian Chou asked:"My lord, do you want to pave the city with earth and stones?"
Zhou Cheng replied:"The reason why a mountain city is easy to defend but difficult to attack is that large siege equipment is not easy to climb up the mountain. Since you can't use machines, then use people."
Zhou Cheng Cheng wanted to build a slope with earth and rocks on one side of the city wall to facilitate the infantry to rush to the top of the city.
The trebuchets left the walls of Wandu Mountain City in ruins, and the top of the city was scorched black. Every day, a large number of soldiers and civilians who could not be identified were carried down the mountain.
Zhou Cheng shouted:"Beat the drum."
Dong-dong-dong!!!
The drum beats fell quickly like raindrops.
At this time, the Panshi Battalion and Panshi Battalion infantry, holding shields, began to advance forward.
The Rouran and Xianbei people began to press forward and fired arrows at the top of the city.
A Goguryeo general shouted:"The Han are about to attack!"
Although rocks continued to fly from the top of the city, the Goguryeo archers could only bite the bullet and reach the top of the city.
At the same time, Goguryeo trebuchets, bed crossbows and other defensive equipment were slowly pushed up to the top of the city.
In order to defend Wandu Mountain City, Gao Bogu has concentrated all the resources from across the country.
Unlike other intruders.
The group of Han people in front of them are even more bloodthirsty. If the city is broken, the entire army will be massacred.
Therefore, Gao Bogu must stay for a while.
Even if he can't hold on, he still has to give his son a chance to escape.
Whoosh!!!
Both sides fired arrows.
At this time, the Goguryeo people on the top of the city also began to use projectiles.
It's dark, so you can only give up accuracy and rely on luck to shoot the enemy.
The arrow passed over the shield and hit the soldier behind the shield.
Zhou Cheng ordered:"Catch up the Goguryeo and Buyeo people."
Soon, the moth thieves waved their swords and spears, driving the Goguryeo and Buyeo people away and ran toward the city wall with bags filled with earth and rocks.
During this process, Goguryeo and Buyeo people continued to fall to the ground after being hit by arrows.
Seeing the locust-like enemy troops entering the city, the Goguryeo general on top of the city shouted:"Get ready for fire oil!"
"put!"
The trebuchet threw the fire oil can into the crowd.
It hit the shield and the ground, causing a fire.
Looking at the soldiers wrapped in the fire, Zhou Cheng had no expression on his face.
War is not just playing tricks, it is so ruthless and cruel.
At this time, some Goguryeo prisoners wanted to drop the bags in their hands and turn around to escape.
However, they were killed by the soldiers supervising the battle behind them.
Finally, the first Goguryeo prisoner dropped the bag in his hands at the bottom of the city.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, , was shot to death by an arrow by the compatriots on the tower.
One person's life and death are insignificant in a war.
However, the contribution of thousands of people in the war can determine the outcome of the war.
Goguryeo and Buyeo people , one after another, threw the bags in their hands at the bottom of the city. The sand gathered into a tower.
More and more bags of earth and stone, tens of thousands, piled up a slope under the city wall!
"The king is in trouble, the Han people want to……"
The generals on the tower were just about to report, when the shouts of killing below the tower shook the sky.
On the top of the city illuminated by torches, Han people were already seen jumping directly onto the top of the city.
