Chapter 864
Things backfired, Zasang underestimated Dalong's ability as a skilled craftsman after all.

Although the Gumo defenders on the Shacheng immediately obeyed the order and hid their bodies behind the battlements and protected their bodies with shields, there were only 1 defenders on the east wall at most.

There are only about 3000 soldiers who can have shields, and the eight-ox crossbow with a range of seven or eight hundred steps can easily shoot the crossbow arrows into the city wall at a distance of only three hundred steps.

The city walls of Shacheng are not those of Dalong built with blue bricks, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are built with clay blocks.

The crossbow arrows of the eight-ox crossbow shot on the battlements and directly covered the position of the battlements with cracks. With a little force, the battlements would immediately roll down under the city wall!
Zasang stood on the tower and listened to the continuous screams of his brothers on the wall, his expression darkened. He wanted to order the archers to fight back, but he looked at the distance of the dragon army outside the city and immediately gave up this unrealistic idea. !
"General be careful!"

A soldier pushed Zhasang away and rolled behind the gate of the tower. Just as the two of them landed on the tower, there was a loud noise, rubble scattered and dust rolled.

Zasang looked at the huge hole above the tower and the huge stones rolling down on the ground with lingering fear and shuddered.

If it wasn't for the soldiers who pushed him away, I'm afraid he would have been turned into flesh!

"Order our catapults to immediately fight back against Dalong's army who is loading stones in the second wave!"

"Yes!"

However, what Zasang didn't expect was that the stones flying out from the city wall did not even fly half the distance, and fell to the ground and rolled down, stopping at the position more than 50 steps ahead of the dragon army and lost power!

Zhasang looked at Dalong's catapult square with an ugly expression. The soldiers under his command used the catapults condescendingly and even couldn't reach the edge of Dalong!

Ye Baotong asked the shield guards in front of the eight-ox crossbowmen to withdraw. He was so nervous just now, but he didn't expect that the stones in Shacheng didn't even fly to him!
Glancing at the loaded eight-ox crossbow and the catapult, Ye Baotong sent another order: "Let's go, shoot ten rounds in three stages without interruption, and don't let the enemy troops in Shacheng poke their heads out!"

"Order!"

Liu Mingzhi looked at the guards in Shacheng who were suppressed by the catapult and eight cattle crossbows in the binoculars and put down the binoculars in their hands.

The reason why Liu Mingzhi attacked the city with the whole army was because he understood that the 15 defenders of Shacheng could not gather at the east gate. The whole army had an advantage over attacking the city separately. On the other hand, I can command the army to take down the East City Gate with all my strength!

"Jiang Lei, the guards on the sand city are so suppressed that they can't stand up and resist, the city gate is up to you!"

"Yes!"

Jiang Lei held the command flag and rushed towards the team of ramming vehicles. The commander and soldiers pushed the catapults, which were all wrapped in iron armor except for one and a half feet in size, which were all wrapped in iron armor, and quickly approached the east gate!

When Zasang saw the door-ramming car approaching, he immediately ordered the catapult to turn around and attack the door-ramming car with all its strength.

Liu Mingzhi sneered: "Xiao Jin, order Cheng Kaifeng to command swords, shields, archers and archers to cross cover and approach Shacheng, covering 16 arrows with four bursts of four bursts!"

"Order!"

Liu Mingzhi continued to look at the situation on the city wall of the sand city. Liu Mingzhi was very relieved that the soldiers on the sand city kept screaming, but not even a single hair was hurt.

There was a loud bang and Liu Mingzhi hurriedly looked towards the northeast corner of Shacheng, not knowing what was going on.

When the dust cleared, Liu Mingzhi found in the mirror that the crenel in the northeast corner of Shacheng had been smashed down by a stone from a catapult.

Liu Mingzhi thought for a while: "Deputy General Song!"

"exist!"

"Order Ye Baotong to turn half of the catapults to attack the collapsed battlements of Shacheng!"

"Order!"

"Du Yu!"

"exist!"

"Order Ning Chao to do everything possible to lead 15 auxiliary soldiers to fill soil in sacks and hand it over to Duan Canren to lead [-] cavalry to fill in a road under the sand city so that the cavalry can rush up to the city wall."

"Marshal, the city gate is broken!"

Before Liu Mingzhi could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the scouts, and stared in the direction of the city gate in a daze, so at a loss what to do.

The tough battle plan I made for three days and three nights without sleep and food, I broke even half of the city gate?

"Marshal, order the whole army to attack the city!"

Young Master Liu suddenly came to his senses: "Deputy General Song is ordered to lead the [-] Modao Squad to assist the sword, shield, archer and archer into the city and kill the city wall!"

"Order!"

The sound of attacking drums came as the heavy cavalry cleared their way and entered the east gate of Shacheng, and then the infantry rushed in towards the city in a swarm but assisted each other.

Surrounded by hundreds of guards, Young Master Liu scratched his head in a daze and embarrassment, looking at the city walls of Shacheng, looking a little at a loss!

"Du Yu!"

"Master?"

"How long have we been fighting? You told me that the war passed quickly, but I didn't notice it, right?"

Du Yu tucked his nose and pointed to the sundial car not far away: "It's only half an hour away!"

"Isn't it that the 15 defenders are all idiots? If they can't resist him for half an hour, how can they have the courage to confront me head-on?"

"Marshal, didn't you see it yourself in the binoculars? Covered by rain of arrows, no one dared to show their heads on the city wall suppressed by eight-ox crossbow catapults. Isn't it reasonable to break through the city?"

Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at the helpless faces of the [-] auxiliary soldiers carrying the siege ladder not far away, and rubbed his face involuntarily. When did the siege battle become so easy!
The sound of fighting on the city wall brought Young Master Liu back to his senses.

"Order the three armies to disarm and not kill, not to plunder the people's property, not to rape women, and those who violate the order will be served by the military law!"

"Order!"

Although Liu Mingzhi repeatedly warned the army not to do anything that violated his military status, he was afraid that some soldiers would be as red-eyed as a runaway wild horse and forget the rules!
"Put down your weapons, disarm and don't kill!"

"Put down your weapons, disarm and don't kill!"

"Put down your weapons, disarm and don't kill!"

Three shocking sounds resounded from the city wall through the sky.

Zha Sang looked at the scimitar in the hands of the soldiers of the Dragon Kingdom who attacked the city wall and surrounded him and his brothers, and fell to the ground powerlessly. Facing the waves of attacks by the soldiers of the Dragon Kingdom, fifty thousand soldiers unexpectedly After half an hour, the city was broken without holding on.

In Zasang's mind, he couldn't help thinking of what His Royal Highness Gumo Rongrong told him, that his foolish loyalty would lead Gumo Kingdom into the abyss.

Earlier Zasang thought that waiting for Wusun Kingdom's 20 reinforcements would lead to an evenly matched battle. Only now did he realize how ridiculous his thinking was.

"General Zasang, Dalong is not as weak as you think, Brother Wang's one-sided words will ruin Gumo Kingdom!"

Thinking back to Gu Mo Rongrong's words in his mind, Zha Sang laughed miserably: "Your Highness, the general regrets not listening to your advice!"

Zhasang looked at the densely packed dragon soldiers standing inside and outside the city with complicated expressions, and watched as the flags on the city wall were replaced by the dragon banners and the banners of the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

"Commander, our flag is up!"

Young Master Liu clasped the hilt of his sword with a complex expression on his waist!
"What about the tough battle you said?"
