At this moment, some Xianbei soldiers with hooks on their hands and feet appeared below the city wall. They jumped onto the city wall and used the hooks to jump up!
That's right, these were the Xianbei soldiers that Yu Chen had encountered when she first entered the game!
And Hao Zhao had encountered much more than that! They were all over the city walls!
They had to defend against the Xianbei soldiers who were setting up the scaling ladders and also prevent the soldiers who could climb up.
However, Hao Zhao was already prepared. After coming to Ping Cheng, Hao Zhao asked Zhang Liao about the situation when the Xianbei attacked Yin Mansion. Naturally, he knew that there were such soldiers in the Xianbei.
Seeing that the soldiers had climbed halfway up the wall, Hao Zhao gave an order to the soldiers who were already prepared behind the parapet with rolling logs.
After receiving the order, the soldiers immediately pushed the rolling wood to the wall and pushed it down!
The rolling wood that Hao Zhao had prepared wasn't just one or two. Basically, the area of this wall could barely cover it.
The Xianbei soldiers who were climbing the wall looked up and saw rolling logs filled with nails falling down. They quickly jumped to the other side to avoid them, but there were also rolling logs falling in the direction they jumped.
Most of these Xianbei soldiers were either killed by rolling logs or fell from the city walls.
Of course, some of them managed to avoid the attack of the rolling logs and climbed up the place where the rolling logs couldn't hit.
But did he think he could go up like this?
Although the archers were no longer the main force of the defense, it didn't mean that they were completely useless. The Xianbei soldiers who hadn't been hit were now their living targets.
At such a close distance, it was basically one arrow per person.
Furthermore, there were some soldiers guarding the top of the walls. If these Xianbei soldiers dared to reach this height, they would instantly stab out with their spears. They wouldn't even know how they died.
Even though they were actively defending, someone still put up the ladder.
The real hand-to-hand battle was about to begin!
The Xianbei soldiers quickly climbed up the ladder. The Han army threw the boulders that they had prepared earlier down the ladder. The Wolf Fang was also moved to the place where the ladder was set up. As long as someone climbed up the ladder, they would put the Wolf Fang down and push everyone down!
Just like that, they attacked Ping City again and again for a day. However, only three or four Xianbei soldiers managed to climb up the walls. However, they were killed by the soldiers on the walls.
Even at night, the Xianbei still did not stop attacking. They were planning to take down Ping City in one go!
However, Kui Tou had underestimated Hao Zhao.
Under Hao Zhao's command, the Han army in Ping Cheng had been in high spirits from morning to night. Although their morale had dropped a little due to fatigue, they had never let down their guard.
The next morning, the Xianbei soldiers were still unable to take down a single wall and even suffered heavy casualties.
After fighting for a day and a night, the Xianbei soldiers were exhausted.
However, once the siege began, if they stopped, their previous efforts would be in vain!
The Xianbei had brought 600,000 soldiers with them. Once they were tired from this wave, they would continue to attack!
This was undoubtedly a huge challenge for the soldiers in Hao Zhao and Ping City.
Even so, the two sides fought for three days and three nights!
In the end, the Xianbei army could not take it down for a long time, their morale was low, and they had no choice but to retreat.
On the other hand, Hao Zhao wasn't having it easy either. He hadn't closed his eyes for a second for the past three days and three nights.
He did not dare to relax at all. If he was careless and the Xianbei army took advantage of the gap, the entire Ping City would be finished!
Seeing the Xianbei finally retreat, he heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he still didn't go to rest. After observing for a while and seeing that the Xianbei army had completely returned to camp, he felt a little more at ease. He let his guards keep an eye on the Xianbei army before finding a place to lie down and rest.
After that, the Xianbei did not continue to attack. They were tired!
The battle lasted for three days and three nights. Not only did they fail to attack the city walls of Ping City, but they also lost 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers.
Morale was completely gone. The soldiers vomited when they heard the word 'attack'. How could they fight?
For the next day, both sides were at peace and rested.
In the next two days, the Xianbei no longer attacked forcefully because they knew that they would not be able to take down Ping City.
Thus, he began to use some other methods.
Sneak attacks at night, digging tunnels, noise interference…
However, Hao Zhao had countermeasures long ago. These messy methods did not have much effect.
At this moment, a fast horse came from the north and rushed into the Xianbei camp…
In the camp, the leaders of the Xianbei tribes were discussing how to take down Ping City.
After all, they had made a solemn promise to the Xiongnu that they would take down Yanmen within ten days. However, it had already been four to five days, and they had not even taken down a small Ping City…
At this moment, a soldier barged in.""Chanyu! Chanyu! Not good! Something happened!"
This sudden shout made all the leaders stop their discussion and focus their attention on this soldier.
"What happened? Why are you so flustered?" Kui asked.”
The soldier replied," Reporting to Chanyu…Qian Man secretly colluded with Kubineng and Suli. Tuoba's tribe captured Chanyu's court and proclaimed themselves Chanyu! They were preparing to head south and fight to the death with the Chief!”
" What?!"
Hearing this news, everyone in the tent was shocked!
Qian Man actually made a move at this time…
Chief Kui had always known that Qian Man had the intention to compete with him for the Chanyu position, but the other party was just a little brat now and could not achieve anything.
However, this little wimp that he thought would not be able to achieve anything actually joined forces with the Xianbei tribes to occupy his Chanyu Court, cutting off his path of retreat, and even sending troops to attack him…
"Chanyu! Let's retreat quickly! If Qian Man cuts off our escape route, we will be trapped here and unable to return to the grasslands!”
"That's right! Chanyu, we can't take down Ping City anyway. If we don't go back, our tribe will be annexed by Qian Man!”
"Big brother, don't hesitate! I think it was a trap for the Xiongnu to send us south to attack the Han Dynasty. Now, we haven't gained any benefits, but we've been rebuffed! I'm going to lead my troops back to the plains anyway!”Fu Luohan had a bad temper. When he heard Qian Man causing such a huge commotion behind him, he could not sit still.
He was the leader of a large tribe that had millions of people. If his tribe was annexed by Qian Man, he even had the heart to die!
Looking at the various leaders who were persuading him to retreat, Kui sighed unwillingly,""Retreat! Go back to the grassland and teach this restless brat Qian Man a lesson!”
At this moment, Hao Zhao, who was observing the Xianbei army from the city tower, saw that the Xianbei army was moving. He thought that the Xianbei army was going to continue attacking. He had already ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle, but he realized that the Xianbei army had retreated!!
Hao Zhao finally revealed a smile that he had not seen for a long time. The retreat of the Xianbei troops also indicated that his good friend Jin Xiang had succeeded…
Fierce battle for five days!
The Battle of Ping Cheng!
It ended!
