Every time the curtain of arrows hit, dozens of refugees would fall. When the curtain of arrows hit more than 20 times, the number of refugees had obviously decreased by half.
"Rolling wood, prepare the stone…"
A hundred meters was neither too long nor too short.
By the time the 100 infantrymen and 100 spearmen had pushed the rolling logs and stones to the edge of the city wall, the enemy had already reached the city gate.
Earlier, Qin Yue had people use heavy objects to block the city gate. The Xianbei troops did not have siege weapons, so it was difficult for them to attack the city in a short period of time.
The only thing they could do was to rush up the city wall and take down the city tower.
When Qin Yue gave the order again, the infantry and spearmen, who were also divided into two teams, had already begun to push the rolling logs and stones down the city wall.
Rumble!
Accompanied by the rumbling sound of collision, logs and boulders fell from high above and ruthlessly smashed into bodies!
If the arrow hadn't hit a vital part of his body, he might have had a chance to get up and continue forward.
However, if they were hit by logs or boulders that were pushed down from high above, even if they did not die on the spot, they would fall to the ground with a bang. They would either lose their combat ability or be trampled into meat paste by the troops that followed closely behind.
The archers continued to attack.
The rolling wood and the stone had already begun their attacks.
Almost every second, more than ten enemies would die under the city wall.
However…
The enemy's charge did not stop!
In fact, it was getting more and more ferocious!
The refugees who had been kidnapped wanted to turn around and escape, but the Xianbei troops behind them were not like that.
The reason why they were forced to become cannon fodder was not only because they were forced, but also because their families were detained behind the Xianbei.
Charge.
They would only have a chance of survival if they charged up the city walls and killed their way into the city.
It was under this kind of physical and psychological coercion that these refugees would obediently use their lives to attack the city walls of Pingkuo County.
Even if they would be buried in this seamless curtain of arrows and rumbling rolling wood and stones, they could do nothing about it.
"Charge!"
"Charge!"
"The Xianbei will release the family of the first person to charge up the city walls.”
Looking at the city wall that was close at hand, a Xianbei general roared and waved the saber in his hand, cutting a timid refugee into two.
To these Xianbei people, the easiest thing the Han people could use was their kinship.
As long as they used their parents and children as bait, these refugees would willingly become their stepping stones!
That's right!
That's right!
From the start, the Xianbei tribe had no intention of attacking the city gates.
Even if it was just the city gate of a small city like Pingkuo County, without siege weapons, it would be impossible to break through in a short period of time.
The biggest taboo in a siege was time consumption. This was common knowledge that even the Xianbei race knew.
Therefore, from the very beginning, their goal was to charge up the city wall!
The city walls of a small county like Pingkuo County were only four to five meters tall.
For ordinary people, it might be a height that was difficult to cross.
However, for the elite Xianbei soldiers in the game, or even the more powerful Xianbei generals, this was not an insurmountable height!
Even if they jumped up, they couldn't do it.
However, with a stepping stone, it would be easy.
The refugees who had been brought here were human shields when they charged. When they reached the city wall, they were stepping stones for the siege!
The refugees kept attacking the city walls.
He was quickly beaten down again.
There were piles of corpses under the city wall, almost as high as a mountain.
There were already enemies who tried to climb the wall by stepping on the corpses.
At this moment.
Qin Yue finally realized what the Xianbei people were thinking.
It was clear that they wanted to use the corpses of the refugees to build a ladder and forcefully pile them up onto the city wall.
Although it sounded ridiculous, the city wall of a small county like Pingkuo County was completely possible with thousands of refugees.
As long as they piled up a corpse ladder and let some of the refugees act as stepping stones, it would be easy for them to jump up and launch a surprise attack when they reached more than half the distance.
This was a very crude and cruel way of attacking a city.
Even if Qin Yue could guess the Xianbei Race's plan, he would not be able to stop them.
After all, the enemy was using corpses to build a ladder. Could he stop killing?
The answer was, of course, no.
Once they stopped killing and attacking, it would be like opening a city and letting the enemy in.
Soon…
When less than one-third of the refugees were left.
A Xianbei general who was holding the line at the back roared and rode his horse over the corpses of the refugees. He rose into the air and rushed towards the city wall.
As he was falling down, he stepped on the horse's back and leaped up into the air again, heading straight for the city wall!
He hasn't arrived yet.
He raised a bone sword in his hand and slashed at a few elite spearmen who were preparing logs at the edge of the city wall.
Elite troops?
A four to five-meter-tall city wall?
To these Xianbei generals who had over 30 points in strength, they were all jokes. As long as they could climb up the walls, no one would be able to stop their attacks.
Everything in this county, be it women or food, would become their spoils of war!
