The Zhao army was on the walls and the brave Tang soldiers jumped onto the ladder carts one after another. At this time, the sound of rumbled drums sounded in the center of the Tang army, and the central army also cheered for the siege soldiers.

The crossbowmen in the Tang army also began to shoot arrows on the top of the city, suppressing the crossbowmen hiding behind the cliff.

The Tang soldiers used shield grids to drive arrows flying from the arrows. The arrows on the head of the Zhao army were fast and dense, and cross-fire attacks were also formed on the protruding horse-faced walls on both sides. The Tang soldiers could not use shields to protect their bodies. They only climbed half of the ladder and were shot down by four or five people by arrows.

However, the soldiers of the Tang army first climbed the city with the intention of dying. Although their robes were shot down one after another, they were still ants.

The first Tang army soldier to climb the city wall had five or six arrowheads inserted into the cowhide armor. He stepped onto the squad and was then hit by a dozen Zhao soldiers with spears.

But with the precedent of this first person, the subsequent soldiers of the Tang army continued to climb the city. Beside the ladder truck, the Tang army also carried the bamboo ladder, and more than a dozen bamboo ladders were placed on the city wall at the same time. The Tang army soldiers bit the knife and held the bamboo ladder with both hands to climb up the top, but the Zhao army soldiers took the long hook and hooked the bamboo ladder that had just climbed up the city wall, and then pushed it out hard.

The bamboo ladder fell backwards, and then he heard screams of screams running around the bamboo ladder. The Tang soldiers climbed on the bamboo ladder rolled down directly like beans.

People also kept rolling down from the top of the city screaming and smashing heavily on the half-piece of the ship covering the poachers under the city wall.

With a bang, the Tang soldiers who were poaching the wall looked back and saw a bloody forehead on half of the robe and their eyes were protruding. This tragic scene caused a dozen Tang soldiers who were poaching the walls with shovels to pause at their hands, swallowed their saliva, and turned around to continue poaching.

With the continuous efforts of the Tang army soldiers, some of the city walls were already three feet deep. The strongest wall embryo in the city wall was exposed, and the difficulty of digging here was greatly increased. With a shovel, only a white mark was drawn. The Tang army soldiers continued to dig the wall with shovels and iron sticks.

At the city gate, the Tang army's crash hit the Gange board with a bang. The Gange board was strongly offset, and the impact of the crash on the city gate caused the Tang army to greatly reduce the effect of the collision on the city gate. Several brave Tang soldiers jumped on the Gange board and tried hard to cut the iron chains hanging on the iron plate, but the iron chains were all as thick as bowls, so how could they be cut open in just a few seconds?

When several Tang soldiers struggled to cut the iron chains of the Gange board, several iron hooks suddenly stretched out from the top of the city. The Tang soldiers hooked them into the air. Some Tang soldiers were directly inserted into the abdomen by the iron hooks and killed them immediately. Some were pulled on their waists and hooked their stomachs, and they would not die for a while. They were hung in the air and struggled to death.

Liu Dewei, who was supervising the battle, saw that in just one hour, the Tang army siege the city had been killed more than 300 people. In addition to losing a pile of arrows and throwing stones, the Zhao army in the city suffered very little casualties.

Liu Dewei knew that it was not that his soldiers were not brave, but that the siege weapons he had built were too simple. Moreover, the Zhao army had been preparing for war in Heyang City for so long that it had long been operating the city into an iron bucket. It is a taboo for military strategists to calculate less but not win more.

When Liu Dewei saw that his soldiers were exhausted, he was about to order to temporarily withdraw his troops, suddenly the Zhao army's arrows stopped on the top of the city.

The Tang soldiers, who were suppressed by the Zhao army's arrows, were stunned and were immediately overjoyed, thinking that the Zhao army must have used up all the arrows. This is also the case. From the beginning of the war, the arrows on the Zhao army's city were shooting down like money. I have never seen any guard general so generous. You must know that in the battle of defending the city, bows and arrows are the most important weapons, and generals will not use them so casually, causing waste of arrows.

In the past, when a general defended the city, the arrows were shot, and then at night, the grass man pretended to go down to the city, and mistakenly made the attacking side think that the defenders were attacking and shooting arrows at the top of the city. Then the defenses used the straw man to borrow arrows.

Seeing that Zhao's army had exhausted arrows and Tang's army was excited, Liu Dewei clearly saw more than a dozen large oil barrels coming out from the battlements at the top of the city, and the oil barrels were filled with burnt hot oil.

"Not good!" Liu Dewei said in disbelief.

He saw the soldiers of the Zhao army on the top of the city fall down the city with their own eyes, and there was a wailing sound below. All the soldiers of the Tang army who climbed the city wall were poured with hot oil and fell from the ladder.

Then the Zhao soldiers on the top of the city replaced the arrows, and the arrows were wrapped with oil cloth, and the fire lit on the oil cloth. The Zhao soldiers stood directly on the squadron and shot directly under the city wall with their bows.

The hot oil was poured over, and the rocket shot again, and then a raging fire broke out under the city.

The Tang soldiers who were digging the wall under the half-throw of the ship discarded the shovel and shovel, ran up loudly and rolled under the mud, and the sharp roar was chilling. The half-throw of the ship, cloud ladder, car crash and other siege equipment were also trapped in the raging fire.

Seeing this scene, Li Jiancheng changed his color slightly and said, "Zhao Jun has this trick."

Li Yuanji said to Li Jiancheng: "Don't worry, your prince, the turbulent stone and arrows can be thrown into the sky, how many can a mere Heyang city be? The Zhao army has used this time. When the next attack, there will be very little left. At that time, our army can directly break the city."

After hearing what Li Yuanji said, Li Jiancheng nodded and said, "Yes, if the defenders are useful to throw arrows and sulphurs, then this city will be difficult to attack."

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were slapped in the face as soon as they finished speaking.

It turned out that on the Heyang floating bridge, hundreds of civil servants were carrying piles of arrows and rolling wooden stones, and were continuously transporting from the Yellow River to the north central city. After the civil servants, hundreds of new forces rushed from the south bank, and were following the civil servants to enter Heyang City. In the city, the wounded soldiers were transported from the floating bridge to Henan on stretchers.

Seeing this scene, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were both stunned.

"Damn it, how do we fight?" Li Yuanji couldn't help but curse.

Li Jiancheng also said in disgrace: "I finally know why Chen Qingzhi can compete with Erzhu Rong with a 300,000 white robe army in Beizhong City. With this Heyang floating bridge, our army will not be able to cut off the back road of Heyang City, so this city will be really difficult to attack. What strategies can the generals have to break this city?"

When Li Jiancheng said this, the generals of Li Tang all showed helpless expressions. Lian Qu Tutong, Chai Shao, Liu Hongji and other famous generals also looked helpless.

Just when Li Jiancheng was at a loss, a gentle and gentle scholar appeared on the side and said, "Your Highness, don't panic, I have a plan to break Heyang City!"
