Take charge of Ascension

Chapter 353
On the four walls of Guangyang County, bright torches were lit, illuminating the dark night sky brightly.

The [-] troops of the Shu Kingdom were divided into four waves. Under the command of Marquis Mighty, they attacked Guangyang County fiercely, and the shouts of killing were shocking.

The army of the Military Discipline Battalion went to the top of the city and resisted the fierce offensive of the Shu army. After a while, the command of the mighty Marquis became even more fierce.

The soldiers who ascended the city, in addition to the soldiers of the acquired warrior level, also mixed with the strong warriors of the innate warrior level, they suddenly shot and beat the Taiping army by surprise.

Of the [-] troops of the Shu Kingdom, the strongest army was the Fen Yong Army, which was composed of [-] innate warriors, but they all perished in Guangyang County.

Although the death of the [-] brave soldiers does not mean that there are no more innate warriors in the army of the Kingdom of Shu, it is just that they are not so concentrated.

In the dark night, although there were torches to illuminate, the visibility was still not that high. The siege engines under the city and the catapults above the city were launched together, and it was impossible to aim at anything, just attack randomly.

Although even in the daytime, the launch of the siege vehicles and trebuchets is difficult to be accurate, but there will be a rough range at last, and they will not miss.

And at night, the distance between the top and bottom of the city was ten or twenty feet, and the top couldn't see the bottom clearly, and the bottom couldn't see the top. The roar of siege engines and trebuchets was naturally random firing.

On the contrary, it was the innate masters of the Shu army who rushed up, which produced great lethality, and once beat the Taiping army on the city wall into chaos.

Under Zhao Ji's command, the innate masters in the military discipline battalion were evenly distributed on the city wall. Once the innate warriors attacked from below the city, those innate warriors from the Taiping Army immediately went up to help.

"what……"

A series of screams sounded one after another, and at a place not far ahead, another innate warrior came up from a siege ladder.

A warrior's cultivation base has reached the innate level, and his lightness kung fu can reach an extremely high level. Although it is not enough to jump up the city wall, with the help of a rope, he can already climb up the city wall.

Siege ladders are much stronger than ropes, and innate warriors can climb on them, and they can fly up to the city wall. If it is during the day, it is easier to be found, but at night, it is difficult to find.

As soon as a middle-aged man got on the city wall, he started killing. The big knife in his hand swung into a light, covering all the Taiping army on the city wall.

With a wave of the broadsword, under the brilliance of the sword, the head of a Taiping soldier flew up.

"Die."

At this time, Zhao Ji rushed forward, and the ancient long sword swung a dim sword light. When the sword struck the long knife in the middle-aged Xiantian's hand, with a sound of "ding", the long knife was sent flying out.

The ancient long sword and the long knife collided together, and with a crisp sound, the long knife flew out of his hand, Zhao Ji stabbed with his sword, and his head flew away.

In Zhao Ji's hands, a martial artist at the early stage of Xiantian couldn't even take one move, and even a Xiantian at the middle stage couldn't take two moves.

After beheading the middle-aged Xiantian, Zhao Jifei kicked on the siege ladder, kicked the ladder flying, and fell down, screams came up from below.

Fighting hard all night, the battle was fierce, and the mighty Marquis's use of troops was really accomplished. At the beginning, the attack on the four walls was equally fierce. Get up fiercely.

After Zhao Ji led his troops to guard this wall, no one in the city came to support it, only [-] Taiping troops guarded this wall, under normal circumstances it would be fine, if there is an accident, there will still be fewer soldiers.

Sure enough, when Mighty Marquis focused on attacking this side of the city wall, the military discipline battalion was dwarfed by comparison. It was a bit difficult for 1 people to defend the front city wall.

The [-] troops of the Shu Kingdom are all elite soldiers. When using soldiers, they appear to be relatively large in number. Moreover, it is more convenient to transfer troops under the city.

It's different in the city. Being on the defensive side, in fact, can be regarded as the passive side, and it must change with the opponent's tactics.

When Mighty Marquis mobilized his army to attack fiercely, the Taiping army was really struggling. Fortunately, under the command of Zhao Ji, they managed to hold on.

After holding on for a quarter of an hour, Liu Xiao finally reacted and sent reinforcements to completely repel the tide-like offensive of the Shu army.

The night's battle was not over until dawn. The Shu army retreated with gold, and when they retreated from Guangyang County with a large force, looking at the city wall behind, Mighty Marquis sighed: "It's a pity! , just a little bit, but I will definitely take down Guangyang County."

"But the general who guarded the city last night was really good. He used troops very well. If it wasn't for him, Guangyang County would have been broken by now."

After all, Marquis Mighty is an experienced soldier, and he could feel that the defense of this city wall was very difficult for a certain period of time last night, from a quarter to two quarters, obviously due to insufficient troops.

At that time, Marquis Mighty Wu stepped up his attack, poured in a steady stream of troops, and launched a frenzied attack on the city wall, but unfortunately, he still failed to break through it.

In the first night battle, the Taiping Army defended Guangyang County. However, this was just the beginning. Mighty Marquis was not dejected by the defeat on the first day. In the next half month, countless attacks were launched.

The city wall of Guangyang County is tall and the Taiping army is very dangerous to defend. However, the army of Shu Kingdom has more soldiers and more generals, and the siege equipment is even more sophisticated.

In the first few days, it was just conventional siege vehicles and siege ladders. Later, even powerful equipment such as thunderbolts and explosive crossbows were used.

Although the national strength of the Shu Kingdom is very strong, it is impossible to equip too many things like thunderbolts and bursting crossbows. However, only a small part of them is already devastating to Guangyang County. .

Once again standing on the top of the city of Guangyang County, looking at the round black balls coming up from below, Zhao Ji shouted loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way."

"Boom!"

As soon as those black spheres were thrown onto the top of the city, there was a strong roar immediately, and the energy like a storm scattered in all directions, and some Taiping soldiers who were too slow to evade were immediately killed.

Watching the balls blooming everywhere, Zhao Ji thought of the modern hand grenade, the explosive power must not be inferior to the hand grenade.

Fortunately, Guangyang County is not a tofu project, the city wall is very solid, with the strength of Thunderbolt and Fire Pearl, only a few stone chips collapsed.
