The siege ladders were pierced into the pile of corpses. The Liao army went forward and climbed up the siege ladders, but most of them could not climb very high and would be immediately hit by stones.

The stones specially reserved for defending the city can often be dozens of kilograms and smashed from the city wall. As long as the stones hit the head, the helmet and head will definitely be smashed to pieces.

And if you smash down along the ladder, it is often not a person who falls down, but several people under you will be smashed down.

Those who are lucky can save their lives by lying on the pile of dead people as buffers, but those who are less lucky are directly hit by their comrades' body.

If those warriors with both luck and strength avoided the first wave of stone attacks, they would be sprinkled with a large pot of hot oil from the city wall.

Above the city wall, a bonfire will be set up every ten meters away. The iron pan is filled with boiling oil. The oil is heated until it smokes, and then soldiers will pour hot oil in buckets and pour it down.

This kind of hot oil, not to mention being splashed on the body, even if it is touched, it will make a big bubble. The pain that is piercing and bone-eroding is not something that normal people can tolerate.

After the hot oil is the torch.

Torches were thrown onto the soldier who was splashed with hot oil, and in the blink of an eye the soldier would become a fireman who kept wailing and screaming.

Out of instinct, they would struggle wildly and run towards their closest comrades, but as long as they were touched, they would immediately get burned. So when faced with such soldiers, the Liao soldiers would give them a pleasure and send them on their way without hesitation.

The siege ladder was constantly burned, pushed open, and was constantly re-established.

Every time the stairs were erected, countless Liao soldiers would bite their weapons like crazy, use their hands and feet to use their strength to suck their hearts, praying in their hearts that God could bless them so that they could survive safely, and then be knocked down by the Qin army again and again.

If you look at the entire battlefield that stretches for miles, you can see that the Liao soldiers are like dumplings, and people are beaten down from the siege ladder at every moment.

Those who fall off will either die or be injured, and those who are injured will be seriously injured.

In the face of backward medical technology and huge casualties, in this extremely cruel cold weapon war, there is no difference between serious injuries and death.

Even worse.

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

Since ancient times, siege wars have been the most brutal war. The siege's troops must be several times more than the defending city before they can succeed. This is a fact recognized by every commander who studies military tactics.

Siege battles are the siege's resources to use human lives to fight for the city's defense.

Either the siege was dragged down by huge casualties, or the defender had no ammunition and food, and was then attacked onto the top of the city and was slaughtered.

Faced with the death of comrades, the siege will accumulate a lot of resentment and fear, and this emotion must be vented. This is also the reason why most of the winners will massacre the city after the victory of the arduous siege in history.

Even though you know you will be scolded by the people of the world, it is better than suppressing the soldiers and mutiny will come.
