The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 598 Crisis in the City
Under Shaoyao's instructions, many people were summoned to dismantle door panels everywhere.

Send them to the front together.

This kind of door is made of wood and is very thick.

Can be used to block crossbow arrows.

At least it can help reduce soldier casualties.

Shaoyao has a big belly and it is very inconvenient to move. This is what she can do to the best of her ability.

When the Turkic people in the city heard the news that these door panels were useful, they all helped by removing their own door panels and delivering them to the city gate.

Leave it to the soldiers to cover the flying arrows.

The soldiers led by the Turkic Khan finally got used to the enemy's offensive, and relied on the lethality of gunpowder to finally stabilize the situation.

Defeat the first wave of enemies.

The Turkic Khan still did not dare to relax, because the enemy's offensive was too fierce.

In particular, the lethality of the heavy crossbow arrows was so powerful that the people on the city wall had to risk huge casualties to fight the rebels.

So we must quickly prepare for the next round.

With so many casualties in the first round, there is not enough confidence that the Turkic Khan can be defended in the next round.

If it hadn't been for Shaoyao mobilizing the people in the city to send a lot of door planks to block arrows.

I'm afraid there will be more casualties.

Based on the last experience, I thought of many defensive methods.

It must be prepared in advance in order to continue to block the rebel attacks.

After this battle, the Turkic Khan's confidence was almost shattered.

Mo Han's performance was really outstanding, he had accumulated so many troops without showing any signs of it.

Especially the creation of thousands of heavy-duty crossbows is really a big deal.

Coupled with the secret alliance between the Jin Kingdom and the Khitan, the strategies were linked together, leaving the Turkic Khan unable to fight back.

The Turkic Khan did not dare to be careless and fought with all his strength.

Never dare to look down on the rebels again.

Shaoyao felt a little relieved after hearing that he had finally withstood the first round of attacks.

If Mo Han had no other means, he should be able to securely defend the city.

After all, there are tens of thousands of troops and some civilians in the city. With the fierceness of the Turkic civilians, they can help defend the city at critical moments.

You only need to persist for ten or eight days. When Daxia learns about the situation here, they will definitely send troops to intervene.

Shaoyao knew Lin Hai very well. Now that she knew she was pregnant with his child, she would never leave Lin Hai alone.

After the rebels retreated, doctors immediately went to treat the wounded.

Mo Han seemed not to hear the screams of his men, and still stared at the city in front of him.

"Sir, I think the next attack must be more violent.

If we send more people, maybe we can break the city! " said his general.

"Haha, there's no need for that! This time it's just to mobilize the city's troops and let them focus all their attention on our side.

The next time they attack, all their forces must be used for defense.

At that time, the situation inside the city will no longer be taken care of. "

Will the corners of Mo Han's lips curl up into a successful smile?

The generals under his command looked confused, not knowing what Mo Han meant.

"Everyone listen to the order and continue the attack in a quarter of an hour!"

Mo Han ignored his generals at all and turned away after giving his instructions.

After resting for a while, the rebels quickly organized their troops and blew the horns.

The Turkic Khan knew that the second round of attack was coming, and quickly called everyone to get ready.

This time it was exactly the same as last time. First, they used heavy crossbows to shoot arrows to suppress the defenders on the city wall.

Then they started to attack the city with all their strength.This time the defenders were well prepared and all hid under several layers of thick planks.

Can block the penetration of heavy crossbows.

And you can also take the opportunity to shoot the rebels with bows and arrows to stop the rebels' attack speed.

When the rebels approached, someone took kerosene and poured it down.

Others lifted rocks and rolled logs to throw them down.

The two sides fought fiercely again.

They are all desperately fighting for control of the city wall.

When the enemy attacked, someone immediately lit explosives and threw them down, causing huge casualties to the rebels.

This time the defenders fought steadily and were not as panicked as last time.

The rebels were almost unable to attack the city wall, but suffered heavy casualties.

More and more people died under the city wall.

Looking at the huge casualties of his own people, Mo Han still looked ahead expressionlessly, as if the life and death of these people had nothing to do with him.

The generals under his command couldn't stand it anymore.

"I didn't expect them to react so quickly. Our heavy crossbows no longer have much of a deterrent effect on them.

It's better to send more people to press up. As long as we capture the city wall in one fell swoop, we can rush in! "

The generals under his command expressed their opinions.

Mo Han stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing.

"Wait a moment, you just need to be ready to attack.

As soon as there is chaos in the city, we must attack it in one fell swoop. "

The rebel general looked confused and confused after hearing his words.

How could the people in the city get into chaos on their own?
But Mo Han stopped talking, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

I had to wait anxiously.

……

When Shaoyao heard the news that the rebels were attacking the city again, he immediately sent someone to check the situation.

After all, the rebels' crossbows had caused too much damage to them, and Shaoyao was really afraid that his soldiers could not withstand them.

After a while, the person who inquired about the news returned.

She said happily: "Your Highness, don't worry, with the wooden door panels we sent, our soldiers can use them to block crossbow arrows.

Now it is very easy to defend the city, and the enemy cannot attack at all! "

"That's good. The rebels are fully prepared this time. Although we can regain the advantage, we must not take it lightly.

You go back to the front to check for news, and report back if there is any news! Shaoyao ordered.

"Yes, my subordinate will go over right away. Make sure the princess knows everything about the front line."

Shaoyao felt much more relaxed at the moment and sat down again, waiting for the news to come.

I thought there would be no problem in defending this city.

But Shaoyao never expected that at this time, a team of people quietly came to the warehouse where the gunpowder was stored.

These people were soldiers selected from the tribes that had surrendered to the Turkic Khan.

Originally, these soldiers were supposed to protect the granary, but they came to Gunpowder without any orders.

The man guarding the gunpowder was a direct descendant of the Turkic Khan. When he saw someone coming, he immediately stretched out his hand to tell them to stop.

"What are you doing here?"

The leading general said with a smile: "The princess sent us here to help guard together.

The rebels are attacking the city with all their strength. Princess Peony is worried about the safety of the gunpowder, so she sends us here! "

The general guarding the gunpowder frowned: "Since it is the order of Her Royal Highness the Princess, take out the order!"
