expression on his face, and the tip of the knife less than an inch from the center of his eyebrow. He let out a third deafening scream, his legs trembled, a stream of yellow liquid trickled out, wet...Chapter 1249 War

the siege ladders were plunged into the pile of corpses, and the Liao army climbed up the siege ladder one after another, but most of them could not climb high enough to be immediately smashed down by stones.

the stones specially reserved for guarding the city are often dozens of jin, falling from the city wall. As long as they are hit on the head by stones, they will definitely be smashed to pieces with helmets and heads.

and smash down the ladder together, often not one person will fall, but several people under him will be smashed down.

those who had better luck could save their lives by lying on the pile of dead people as a buffer, but those who were almost lucky were directly killed by the bodies of their comrades-in-arms.

if those soldiers with both luck and strength, after avoiding the first wave of stone attacks, will then be sprinkled with a large basin of boiling hot oil from the city wall.

above the city wall, every ten meters away there is a bonfire with a huge black iron pot filled with hot oil, which is heated to smoke, and then soldiers pour hot oil out of buckets and pour it down.

Hot oil at this temperature, not to mention being spilled on the body, is a big bubble with every drop, and the pain of heart and bone erosion is simply not something that normal people can bear.

Hot oil is followed by a torch.

A torch is thrown on a soldier who is spilled by hot oil, and in the blink of an eye the soldier becomes a fiery man who is constantly wailing and screaming.

out of instinct, they will struggle crazily and run to their nearest comrades-in-arms, but as long as they touch them, they will immediately set themselves on fire, so in the face of such soldiers, Liao soldiers will not hesitate to give them a pleasure and send them on their way.

the siege ladder is constantly burned, pushed open, and constantly re-erected.

every time the ladder is set up, countless Liao soldiers will bite their weapons madly, use their hands and feet to suck milk, and pray in their hearts that God will bless them so that they can survive safely, and then they will be beaten down again and again by the army of the Qin Dynasty.

if you look at the entire battlefield that stretches for miles, you can see that the soldiers of the Liao army are like making dumplings, and people are beaten down from the siege ladder all the time.

those who fall are either dead or injured, and those who are injured are seriously injured.

in the face of backward medical technology and a large number of casualties, there is no difference between serious injury and death in the extremely cruel war of cold weapons.

is even worse.

after all, death is only a matter of the moment, but seriously injured, you have to endure great pain and be slowly tortured to death.

since ancient times, siege has been the cruelest war, and it is a fact recognized by every commander who studies the art of war that the forces of the siege must be several times larger than those of defending the city in order to succeed.

siege is the resources of the siege side to defend the city with human life.

either the siege side was dragged down by huge casualties, or the defender ran out of ammunition, and then was attacked to the head of the city and slaughtered.

in the face of the death of a comrade-in-arms, the siege side will have a large backlog of grievances and fears, which must be vented, which is why most of the victors will slaughter the city after most of the hard battles in history.

even if you know that you will be reviled by the rest of the world, it is better than putting pressure on the soldiers and mutiny.

the siege side is under great psychological pressure, and the defender is not necessarily any better.not want to put on airs as the prince, so Guan Zhiwei did not tell his family his identity, but this did not prevent the Guan family from being in awe of the young man who was treated respectfully and...
