witch chaotic country

Chapter 74

In the early morning of the second day, Hu Xia's first attack began.

When Hu Xia's war drum sounded, He Lu, who was nestled in the corner of the city wall and had been in a daze, jumped up excitedly!He stayed up all night last night with his eyelids open. As soon as he closed his eyes, the enemy attacked the door!Angrily, he snorted, turned around and picked up a hammer.

He doesn't know martial arts, and the small steel crossbow used for body protection is as brittle as a toothpick under this kind of fighting.Fortunately, he still has the strength to forge iron with his father since he was a child, so he took a hammer from the blacksmith's shop, and it was quite easy to shake it in his hand.I thought to myself that instead of smashing the iron today, I would just smash my head, and if I smashed one to return the capital, I would earn money if I smashed two!

Hu Xiajun was not in a hurry to attack, and first threw stones with a trebuchet a hundred meters away.

When He Lu saw the huge boulder flying towards him, he was in despair!Judging by the size of the stone, the city wall of Wudu might not even be able to withstand it.But after waiting for a long time, it turned out that there was a "boom" from behind.

He Lu looked back into the city inexplicably, and sure enough a large rock fell into the city, leaving a foot-deep crater on the ground, injuring several soldiers.

He Lu was wondering, when he heard a "Hoo--" from above, which made him shrink back in fright.Another boulder flew in from above his head, and it slammed into the city with a "boom!", causing the city walls to shake.

He Lu frowned, what kind of play is this?He squeezed away the soldiers guarding the city, found a gap to look at the catapult in the distance, and suddenly realized.

Hu Xia's catapult is indeed bigger than those of other countries. Its throwing arm is thick and long. In order to throw the stone ball higher and farther, and the thrown stone ball is bigger, they specially transported a thousand-year-old fir tree from Hu Xia.The other parts of the catapult are all made from local materials, but the throwing arm is made of the trunk of the giant cedar tree they brought!It's just a pity that they made a mistake in their calculations. This is Wudu, not Hanyang, let alone Tongwancheng.

Wudu is just a small town. Although there is a city wall built, the wall is only eight feet high, which is far shorter than the height of the city in Hanyang County.Dealing with Wudu with the trebuchet used to deal with Hanyang County is like hacking an ant with an axe.
Just as He Lu was about to discuss with Du Wenze, he heard the soldiers next to him say that they pushed the catapult away!
Du Wen hurriedly turned his head and yelled at the soldiers on top of the giant logs in the wall, "I'm holding you tight! If one falls, your heads will be cut off!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud "bang", a stone ball just hit the city wall under his feet, and immediately left a big white spot on the wall!Although it looked powerful, it was not as powerful as the two moving stars that fell into the city.It seems that the trebuchet has been pulled away, its height has dropped, and its strength has also dropped.

Du Wen saw it, his eyes flashed, and he slapped the wall hard, "There is a show!" He immediately commanded, "Quick! The archers are ready! The trebuchet can't use its power, they are going to attack hard!"

Perhaps seeing the hope of victory, Du Wen seemed to be a different person in a blink of an eye, and the original negativity faded away completely!

While directing, he muttered, "Damn, could it be that the Fairy Fairy has manifested? Such evil things can happen!"

He Lu was a little dazed when he heard him muttering. Although he believed in Yao Yu, he still felt that she shouldn't have manifested like this...

He Lu opened his mouth to say something, but closed his mouth again.For a military general like Du Wenze, who has been on too many battlefields, when the good and the bad, and the good and the bad, are all dead on the battlefield, the law of heaven does not make sense.

Although they also respect the gods and Buddhas, they all know in their hearts that when the knife is cut down, the blessings of any Buddha will not be of much use.On the contrary, it is their creed that "gods block and kill gods, and Buddhas block and destroy Buddhas".But now this person, by accident, attributed the good thing to Yao Yu, so it is hard to guarantee that it is not a good omen.

Sure enough, the catapult was not strong enough, and Hu Xiajun began to drive the death camp into the city.

According to Master Meng's suggestion, everyone shot more than a dozen steamed buns with bows and arrows in front of each square of death row prisoners.

When the captives in Hanyang saw the steamed buns, they went crazy to grab the steamed buns regardless of the Hu Xia soldiers who drove them away.Hu Xiajun's formation suddenly fell into chaos.

The Hu Xia soldiers who had been driving the death camp from far behind were afraid of being punished by military law, so they rushed up to control the prisoners, but who would have thought that they would be hit by a rain of arrows as soon as they approached the city gate.An hour passed, and after repeating this several times to no avail, the coach Hu Xia finally ordered to pull out the death camp and attack the city directly.

Soon, Hu Xiabing hugged the ramming tree and rushed over under the protection of the shield hand, but when he rushed to a place half a foot away from the city gate, he threw the ramming tree, turned around and ran back.He Lu's nail road looks inconspicuous, but it will work in a short time.

The soldiers guarding the city didn't care to watch them jump around, and a row of arrows shot at them.The few who were originally rushing to the front were nailed to the ground in an instant.

Seeing Hu Xiajun, the drumbeat changed and the formation changed.On the opposite side of the city, a row of black lines rushed over, two rows of shield hands were in front to protect, and the sword hands behind were all rushing forward with climbing hooks!In the blink of an eye, the black line was under the city wall!

Although there are iron nails at the base of the wall, they are not so dense and not so wide after all, so it is easy to go over.Two shield hands protect a knife hand, throwing a hook against the rain of arrows!As long as one is hooked, the knife hand will follow behind, climbing up like crazy!

Du Wenze was already red-eyed at this time, and kept yelling, "Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! Shoot again! Shoot these bastards to death for me!"

He Lu followed another team of swordsmen, taking advantage of the gap between the front and rear rows of the archers team, rushed up to cut the ropes of the grappling hooks, and chopped off a string!Watching him relieve hatred!

Hu Xiajun quickly dispatched Yuan Bow and Arrow Array, and Jian Yu rushed towards the top of the city wall row by row.

In a blink of an eye, the archers and swordsmen on the wall of Wudu City fell down!He Lu only felt his face heat up, and an archer standing in front of him lay down straight back.A long arrow shot through his left eye, and then shot out from the back of his head obliquely. With a "poof", the man's blood mixed with his brain splashed He Lu's face, dragging him down as well.

Before He Lu pushed the corpse away, he felt that the top sank again, and then one after another the corpses pressed up, burying him tightly inside.

"Change the shield!" Du Wen yelled, and then he tilted his body, and was shot in the shoulder by an arrow.He retreated with his right leg, resisting himself and not falling, "Shieldman!" He roared while waving the command flag.

The soldiers on the city wall were well-trained, and as soon as they retreated and entered, they changed their formation in a blink of an eye.A bronze pointed shield with a cloud pattern of beast's mouth slanted on the city wall. After Hu Xiajun's round of arrow rain, the archer found time to return to Hu Xiajun before the second round of arrow rain arrived.

Hu Xiajun took advantage of this round of delay in the Wudu arrow formation and mobilized two groups of troops to attack.This group of Hu Xiajun quickly rushed to the bottom of the city wall, and all the people who carried them were ladders.

Although the middle section of the city wall of Wudu was suppressed, the flanks were under the cover of the city tower, and the rain of arrows never stopped.Hu Xia's soldiers who were in charge of erecting the ladder fell down one by one, but five of them stood up.The erected ladder was immediately resisted by the Hu Xia people, and they couldn't even push it!
　Thank you Tiantian Xuexue and Xiaohuge for your rewards!Happy Chinese New Year everyone!

　　In this chapter, I specially searched for some expansion packs to read. Ancient wars were quite cruel... Especially in the period of ritual and music, it was basically a competition, who would be trampled to death first!It is as frightening as gossip relatives in the Spring Festival!
