Seeing that the Buyeo defenders were running out of strength, the Goguryeo soldiers shouted excitedly and climbed up the ladder.
From a distance, the attacking Goguryeo soldiers looked like a dense swarm of ants climbing a wall, rapidly scaling the top of the wooden palisade.
Seeing this, the Buyeo defenders also abandoned their bows and arrows, and instead began to pick up logs and roll stones to smash the Goguryeo soldiers on the ladder. If one person did not move, then two or three people would work together.
The tenacity of the Buyeo defenders caused some casualties to the attacking Goguryeo soldiers, but the damage was extremely limited. Moreover, the fact that three people working together to move a rolling stone created a gap in the defense.

"Waaaaah!"
Just as the fighting was at its most intense, a bugle call signaling retreat suddenly sounded from the rear of the Goguryeo army.
The Goguryeo soldiers retreated from the walls of the wooden fortress like a receding tide.
Looking at the corpses scattered all over the city wall and the retreating Goguryeo soldiers, the wounded Yu Choutai leaned against the battlements, panting heavily.
Although the attack by Goguryeo was repelled, there was no sign of excitement on Yuchoutai's face.
