The devil is coming

Chapter 525 Bloody Battle ([-])
The blind man and Gou Moli rode back to the main village together. On the way, Gou Moli said:
"Mr. Bei, do you know the biggest difference between you and me?"
"Where?" the blind man responded.
"That's what you seek, learn and know. It's a commonality among people. I, on the other hand, like to see the specific characteristics of a single group of people. If, Mr. Bei, you regard savages as human beings."
"You mean, I'm more metaphysical?"
"I don't understand this word, but I can probably guess what it means. In fact, it's almost the same. It's a candle. No matter how bright and hot it is, it still needs a dark candlestick to hold it and attach to it.
Even if you plate this candlestick with gold and silver, its luster cannot be as good as the flame of a candle, but if it is really missing, and it is missing its accessories, it won't work.
You think about commonality in the general direction, but I just tinker in small corners. "
"Haha, I remember that the Lord should have told you that he doesn't like your habit of being too modest. You always think of yourself as a fool and a fool. You said, we don't believe it. Well, you are always jumping around like this, if we believe it, wouldn’t we become fools ourselves?”
"Yes, I understand. Then I will try my best to speak well in the future, but... there is nothing I can do. Some habits have been developed for too long, and it is difficult to change them back."
"Take your time, don't rush."
"But I'm curious, Mr. Bei, to what extent do you think I should change it? Although I don't know what it is, I think the relationship between you, Mr. Bei, Mr. Feng, including General Liang, and your uncle is very strange. , I may never achieve it.”
"You don't have to have extravagant expectations about our relationship with the Lord."
You can't imitate this thing even if you want to, it's innate.
Even the devils themselves can't change it.
Regardless of whether it was the previous life or this life, it was always like this.
"Then what should I try to show? Oh no, according to what Mr. Bei said in your lecture to the soldiers and civilians of Xueguan Customs, in which direction should I make progress?"
"progress?"
"Yes, how far should I progress?"
"It has progressed to the point that if our master and I plan to open an inn in the future, and we think we can keep you as a waiter in the inn, then that's fine."
"Interesting." Gou Moli smacked his lips and continued, "Very interesting. Uncle and you are both a very interesting group of people."
"Our goal is to make this life more interesting."
"I must understand this sentence with my heart. In fact, I have always been a little confused, because after the collapse of the great cause, I should have wiped my neck and died.
But I have never died. I am still thinking of ways to wait for opportunities and pursue them.
Perhaps, in my future journey, I can follow the example of Mr. Bei and Uncle, and get closer to those two words. "
"Take your time, don't rush."
"Yes, but there is one more thing. I can see it, but I still don't know if I should say it." Gou Moli said.
"Go ahead."
"My Lord and you are Yan people, but I have always felt that you don't actually look like Yan people."
"You Gou Moli, how can you be like those ignorant and stupid savages?"
"No, Mr. Bei, what I mean is that both uncle and you have different attitudes towards the Yan people..."
"What's the matter?"
"There was an oversight. This oversight is still related to the relationship between the candlestick and the candle flame. Just as I understand the savages, in fact, there are people who understand the Yan people just like me."
"What do you mean, His Majesty Emperor Yan?"
"Yes, it is him, he is a hero."
"It's natural."
"Perhaps, many people thought that his launching a war against Chu at this time was a kind of militarism, but he himself should be able to clearly sense the limit of what the Yan people could endure.
He thought there was no problem, so he did it like this. He knew how much power the Yan State and the Yan people could squeeze out. If one generation was not enough, it would take two or even three generations to do it in one day. "
"what do you want to say in the end."
"I just want to ask Mr. Bei, have you considered what happens after this war against Chu?"
Hear this question,
A smile appeared on the blind man's lips.
In the past, the only one among the Demon King who was really eager for rebellion was Blind Bei. Now it seems that there needs to be one more.
Because for the Savage King, the higher the master's status, as a dog under the master's feet, his status, as well as the status of the snowfield he represents, will also rise.
"Step by step."
The blind man gave this answer.
In fact, many people are preparing for the future, such as Gongsun Zhi, Gong Wang, and even, older ones, King Jingnan and Emperor Yan.
Although the attack on Chu is still the first, this does not prevent everyone from making some plans and arrangements for the future.
However, it is a pity that although Xueguan is now a place and a force that cannot be ignored in East Shanxi, it still does not have the qualifications to place stones in advance on the chessboard.
Not having such qualifications is not a big problem, because throughout the ages, there is a type of person who will not make a move in advance, because what he is good at is seizing chestnuts from the fire.
What Xue Customs is waiting for now is actually an opportunity, an opportunity to untie the shackles on his neck.
The blind man knew that the Lord understood these words, but he could not discuss them in detail with the Lord, because the biggest shackle currently tied around Xueguan Guan's neck was named Tian.
Seeing that the blind man was deep in thought, Gou Moli stopped talking.
a long time,
The blind man breathed out,
Road:
"We will talk about the future things later. Do the current things well first, otherwise we will be too ambitious and everything will be empty talk."
"Sir said yes."
"The Lord will probably agree to your request, but it's up to you to make it happen. You are just a dead person, too slow and too cheap."
"Yes, I understand that while dying a lot, you must also die as valuable as possible."
A smile appeared on the blind man's lips,
Gou Moli also smiled,
This is a knowing smile from two old silver coins.
.........
"This bow feels good."
In handsome tent,
Uncle Zheng touched the bow that was used by Chu assassins to shoot him during the day and admired.
In this life, Uncle Zheng has practiced two weapons, one is a knife, and the other is an arrow.
Moreover, Uncle Zheng's archery skills are not bad. In this regard, A Ming has made great contributions.
This purple bow should be made of a special material. The bow string is made of the sinew of an unknown monster. Unfortunately, there are no runes on it.
But what to say,
As soon as I looked at Lafeng,
Secondly, I looked at Lafeng,
Three still looked at Lafeng;
On the premise that the quality is also excellent, the better it looks, the more people will like it.
After playing with it for a long time, Uncle Zheng put the bow aside. In fact, when he actually charged, he would carry a bow on his back. Although as his status continued to improve, he had to draw the bow by himself. The opportunities for arrows are getting less and less, but every time you go to the battlefield, bringing an extra weapon can always give you an extra sense of security.
It's a pity that the color of this bow is so good. I'll find a way to dye it, it's too conspicuous.
While Uncle Zheng was playing with the bow, Liang Cheng reported today's battle damage. Uncle Zheng just listened to the figures. To make up for the damage after the battle, one way was to ask the king's account to make up for it, and the other was to ask Snow from his hometown to make up for it. Delivery to customs.
The army was under great logistical pressure, and Uncle Zheng was too embarrassed to open his mouth to the lion of Laotian. It was already very interesting that Laotian did not allow him to provide food and ordnance to support the army.
But, how should I put it, the country’s advantages should not be taken away, but should be taken. Anyway, in your own hands, you can at least ensure a stable effect.
In addition, with the official start of siege battles in various places, the second batch of civilians coming from the Yan and Jin lands have also passed Wangjiang, and some of them will be selected as auxiliary soldiers.
National war, to put it bluntly, is about national power, which can be divided into human and material resources.
"A Cheng, tell me, we will officially attack the city tomorrow. At today's pace, how long will it take?"
Liang Cheng shook his head and said:
"Lord, I apologize for my inability to answer this question. In this kind of war, we can do our best, and the rest can only be left to the other side.
They may remain resilient, or they may suddenly collapse.
In extreme terms, we may fight to the last soldier, or we may have one of our trebuchets directly kill the opponent's general tomorrow. "
"..." Uncle Zheng.
Liang Cheng realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.
Uncle Zheng applied some essential oil on his eyebrows, rubbed it gently, and said:
"So, this kind of battle is actually not interesting."
If it's a field battle, I can take care of everything.
"My lord, if this kind of battle could be fought in an interesting way, then the Yan State would have gone south and officially attacked it."
"That's right. Anyway, let's take a look first. What are the arrangements for tomorrow?"
"The share of arrow towers and trebuchets has doubled from today's. Today, my subordinates only asked people to fill in the trenches and moat ditches. I did not ask anyone to knock down the wall standing at the city gate. I also deliberately I ordered the trebuchet not to hit it there."
Uncle Zheng nodded and said, "Well, leave them a thought, otherwise the city gate will be blocked."
"My lord is wise."
"Just talk, mixed with flattery, and the effect is not good."
Uncle Zheng can be considered "battle-hardened". With two famous masters at his head, his ability to "talk on paper" is certainly true.
"Yes, Lord, judging from the fact that the Chu people sent heavy-armored soldiers out of the city to attack today and sent assassins, the Chu people's mentality is actually not bad.
This mentality is based on the past impression that the Yan army is not good at attacking cities.
Today, there may be greater pressure on them, but people, in their hearts, it is inevitable that there will be some luck.We will not push down the wall today. When we officially attack the city tomorrow, the effect of the battering ram will be at its best.
In fact, if the Chu people's trenches and moat ditches were not so cleverly laid out and designed, the effect would have been the best if they had just attacked them in one fell swoop today. "
That wall was a thought left to the Chu people to prevent them from completely blocking the city gate from the beginning.
Give them a way out and give yourself a way in.
"Tomorrow Gongsun Zhi wants to lead his own bodyguard to charge into the city." Uncle Zheng reminded.
"I heard from the blind man that he is in a very difficult situation now. After all, among the Yan people, he is actually a traitor to Li Bao's group. Therefore, he is more eager for military exploits and contributions.
However, it is quite cheap to hire him. "
"Then tomorrow will be a real fight to the death?" Uncle Zheng continued to rub his eyebrows.
"Yes, Lord, if we fail to achieve miraculous results tomorrow, then there will probably be a period of fierce fighting between the offensive and defensive sides."
"Ah."
At this time,
The guard at the door reported:
"Uncle, Mr. Bei and Mr. Ye would like to see you."
Mr. Ye is naturally Gou Moli.
Gou Moli is called Mr. Ye by people around Zheng Fan. Among Uncle Zheng, except for Liang Cheng, who has a temporary position in the army and is called General by his subordinates, everyone else is called Sir.
"Let them in."
quickly,
The blind man and Gou Moli walked into the handsome tent.
After entering, the blind man stood directly to the side, indicating that he was just accompanying him.
Gou Moli knelt down directly in front of Uncle Zheng.
shouted;
"Uncle, tomorrow's battle will be extremely critical. If you win, Dongshan Fort can be defeated once and for all. If you lose, it will be a long-term struggle.
Therefore,
I ask my uncle to give me another chance.
Tomorrow, my subordinates, please send me the first batch of savage warriors to the city! "
These words proved that it was not only Liang Cheng but also Gou Moli who had a clear understanding of the battle situation at hand.
In fact, there is no doubt about Gou Moli's strategic vision and tactical ability. Otherwise, it would be impossible to win consecutive battles against the Situ family outside Xuehaiguan.
Uncle Zheng put down the small bottle of Fengyoujing, took out his iron box, took out two cigarettes, and threw one to the blind man standing far away.
The cigarette floated in the air, and finally fell steadily into the blind man's lips.
Uncle Zheng smiled "haha" and took a cigarette himself. Immediately, the burning candle on the table floated and came in front of him. The flame was exactly the same, and he helped light the cigarette.
Liang Cheng pretended not to see it.
If Fan Li were here, he would probably say:
Things are pressing.
Breathe out a smoke ring,
Uncle Zheng held a cigarette, turned sideways, and looked at the Savage King kneeling below.
said slowly;
"If we charge the city, many people will die."
Gou Moli raised his head, grinned, and smiled.
Road:
"Uncle please, please give me a chance to kill someone. Someone must be the first to go up. I don't ask for skillful cooperation or personal force.
Just want one,
Brave and not afraid of death. "
Uncle Zheng narrowed his eyes, shook the ashes from his cigarette, and said:
"to make."
"Thank you uncle for making it happen!"
.........
The handsome chariot was pulled out of the stronghold again, but it stayed not far outside the military stronghold.
Uncle Zheng, dressed in golden armor, stood on top. Behind him, on the left side, stood A Ming, and on the right side stood the Sword Master.
Below the handsome chariot were a group of personal guards led by Gao Yi himself.
On the side of the handsome chariot, there is a railing with a flag with the word "Zheng" hanging on it. At the same time, a purple long bow is tied there.
In wars since ancient times, unless the strong and weak are crushed and pushed equally, most of the time, the battle is about morale.
To reduce the opponent's morale as much as possible is a reflection of the general's level, but at the same time, how to ensure and improve one's own morale is the basic responsibility of the general.
Uncle Zheng doesn't like wearing this set of gold armor.
Uncle Zheng also doesn’t like this long bow that is too brightly colored.
But in order to appease the morale of the military,
He must stand here carelessly today, letting his soldiers, auxiliary soldiers and civilians see him.
Sure enough, when the first batch of regular troops came out of the stronghold and passed in front of the handsome chariot, the soldiers' spirits were lifted.
The auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands who followed were even more so.
Because no matter what, he, Zheng Fan, is the backbone and mascot of this army. It sounds a bit like a "plaything", but it evolved from another modern time and space. In this era, the chief general of an army, It is the soul of the whole army.
Gongsun Zhi led his army. After he dismounted, he led a group of personal guards and took the initiative to come to the handsome chariot and knelt down on one knee.
Hundreds of personal guards behind him also knelt down.
"Last general, please see me, uncle, uncle, I am blessed!"
Standing on the handsome chariot, Uncle Zheng held a knife in his left hand and raised his right hand slightly, saying:
"General Gongsun, please rise."
"Uncle Xie!"
Gongsun Zhi stood up, and the guards behind him also stood up. Only a young man leaning against Gongsun Zhi, who was also wearing armor but looked to be in his early ten years, did not stand up and remained kneeling.
In fact, Uncle Zheng had noticed him before. Without him, this figure would have been too conspicuous among the wolf-like bodyguards.
Gongsun Zhi pointed to the young man who was still kneeling on the ground and said:
"Uncle, this is the dog's son, Gongsun Zhen."
"Gongsun Zhuan, I have met Uncle Pingye. Uncle Pingye is Fukang."
After saying that, the young man kowtowed three more times.
This meaning is different.
He has broken away from the courtesy of superiors and subordinates, and at the same time, he has also broken away from the courtesy of ordinary uncles.
Gongsun Huan, formerly known as Li Huan.
Six of the seven general soldiers under Zhenbeihou in Zhenbeihou Mansion are the adopted sons of Zhenbeihou. All of them are named Li, including Li Fusheng.
Li Fusheng, originally named Guo.
This adopted son system had a profound and widespread influence in Yan State, especially in the military.
But similar to Li Fusheng, his child can be named Hui Guo, because as an adopted son in the military, he has the attitude and meaning of being a family member in the military.
But Li Bao is different. Li Bao was born as an orphan. He doesn't have his own surname at all, so his surname is Li.
Gongsun Zhi, who was originally his adopted son, changed his surname to Li Zhi and later recruited him as his son-in-law. Therefore, Gongsun Zhi's son's original name was Li Zhi.
The reason why Gongsun Zhi finally chose to part ways with Li Bao's son and separate with his own troops was because he wanted to change his surname back to Gongsun to Xiao, and he wanted his son to change his surname back to Da.
"Uncle, I'm a rough man. I think I can't teach children well. My baby has a good brain, but I'm afraid that I'll delay him if he stays with me. So, please help me train him if he's bothered.
Gongsun Zhi is here, kowtowing to his uncle! "
finished,
Gongsun Zhi knelt down again and kowtowed three times.
In fact, this is what Tuogu means.
Since ancient times, entrusting an orphan has been a big deal, because you have to ask others to help you continue your bloodline. What you owe others is a huge kindness. Three rings is a matter of course.
The Savage King once told Uncle Zheng that because Uncle Zheng was only used to looking upward, he felt that there were very few things that were like flies and dogs.
This is because the people above Uncle Zheng who can really get into Uncle Zheng's eyes are only a few people such as the Second Marquis of the North and the South and Emperor Yan.
Any place with few people will naturally be quiet.
But if you look down, looking at the intricate branches under you, it's like watching ants digging holes in the soil. They are densely packed, with nine turns and eighteen turns, and there is a unique cave.
Gongsun Zhi asked Gu not because he wanted to lead his troops to attack the city today.
In fact, with Gongsun Zhi's strength and the personal guards around him who would fight to the death to protect him, unless he was very unlucky or refused to retreat even if he was beaten to death, it would be quite difficult to die in battle today.
When he entrusts an orphan, he is actually giving protons.
Just like those small countries took the initiative to send their princes to the four major countries, just to make them hostages.
This also shows an attitude, if I mess with you, my son will stay with you!
Uncle Zheng helped King Jingnan raise his son. Since then, Uncle Zheng has been regarded by the world as a person sitting on the boat of King Jingnan, and he cannot be cleaned no matter how hard he washes himself.
Gongsun Zhi's move was the same.
The friendship between Tuogu and Tuogu cannot be broken off easily, whether it is him as the father or the young man beside him, Gongsun Yan.
In addition, Gongsun Zhi originally separated from the Li Bao lineage and had a bad reputation. If he broke away from the Ping Yebo lineage, it would be difficult for him to stay in the officialdom or the army.
At this time,
Gong Wang also led his guards over and happened to see this scene.
In fact, at this time, everyone knew that the two of them, including their subordinates, would rely on Uncle Hirano from now on.
There are a total of three groups of soldiers and horses at the top of a mountain.
Naturally, there is no need to say more about Hirano Bo's own route, but who is the second route is very particular, as it involves the distribution of benefits after the victory over Chu.
Gongsun Zhi's recruitment of Tuogu fell into the eyes of Gong Wang and the lieutenants around him, and it was a straightforward competition for favor.
Yes,
You, Gongsun Zhi, just asked for a battle yesterday to lead an army into the city, but are you bound to die in battle?
Since you are bound to die in battle, how about I make you a coffin and pull out some pieces of white cloth to hang it up today?
Gongwangzhi Gonglin asked at this time:
"Dad, how about your son also kowtow?"
When Gong Wang heard this, he was so angry that he laughed.
However, he had been with Situ Lei after all, and he had a stronger aura of Confucian general, so he immediately said:
“How old are you and how old is he?
Even among the people, when marrying a widow, you have to pay attention to whether the child the widow brings is a boy or a girl, and how old the widow must be before the child can be married. Forget it if the child is a daughter, but if the child is older, it is really like raising a son for someone else. .
What's more, raising a son who is only a year or two younger than himself? "
Uncle Hirano is young, but Gong Wang is older. Therefore, Gong Wang’s Gong Lin is really only a little younger than Uncle Hirano in terms of age.
Gong Lin was scolded and did not dare to speak.
Gong Wang frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "It's Jia'er..."
"Dad, do you want to marry your daughter to Uncle Hirano?"
Gong Lin has a very good relationship with her sister. Any older brother will be extremely sad on the day his sister gets married.
What's more, this is still a very clear and obvious political marriage.
If Gong Sunzhi sends a son over, your Gong family will immediately send a daughter over. Well, Uncle Hirano, who is still childless, will suddenly have both a son and a daughter.
"Dad, Uncle Hirano's family has a princess."
This princess is a real Princess of Chu. At the same time, she was canonized by Emperor Yan himself when she went to Yanjing last time.
If my sister enters the Zheng family, how can she compete with the princess?Doesn’t it mean that we have to stay down and be small all the time?
Originally, the father and son Gong Wang and Gong Lin had discussed their daughter's life-long affairs. The father and son had the same view, that is, to find a family with a lower status than their own. In this way, after the son gets married, she will also have her father and brother around. You can't afford to suffer, and you can be tough at your husband's house.
But Mr. Hirano’s family background...
With a princess as the first wife, how can my sister (daughter) be so tough?
What Gong Lin didn't know was that even the princess was the youngest one in the Prince's Mansion.
"That's all, I'll go down with my father to see my uncle first."
Gong Wang led his son and a group of generals to dismount and walk over, paying homage together:
"I have finally met Uncle Hirano, and he is blessed!"
"Get up."
"Uncle Xie!"
Gong Wang pointed to Gong Lin beside him and introduced:
"Uncle, this is Quanzi."
"Gong Lin has met Uncle Pingye, who has always been a high-altitude role model in the hearts of generals."
This is not meant to flatter,
Although there is not much age difference between the two, Hirano Bo's achievements and deeds are enough for Gong Lin to look up to.
"Since the two generals have arrived, I think our troops should also be here, right?" Uncle Zheng asked.
"Replying to my uncle, among the last generals, starting from the last general, they are all at my uncle's disposal!" Gong Wang replied seriously.
Gongsun Zhi also said: "Uncle, I am the same!"
Uncle Zheng nodded. In fact, it didn't take much effort to conquer these two generals, because everyone had their own needs.
Uncle Zheng needs to build his own mountaintop so that he can take the initiative when the cake is divided in the future.
Both of them wanted to find a backer, and Uncle Zheng was a perfect fit, so they all hit it off.
"Okay, let's make the Chu people in Dongshan Castle look good today."
After all,
Uncle Zheng untied the barbarian sword hanging from his waist and threw it away.
Gongsun Huan immediately stretched out his hand to catch it.
immediately,
Gongsun Zhen climbed up the chariot from one side of the stairs and stood beside Uncle Zheng. This entrustment was finally done.
Uncle Zheng reached out and knocked the small helmet on Gongsun Tuan's head, and it made two crisp sounds.
laughed:
"In the beginning, this uncle also stood beside the prince like this."
Gongsun Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this.
Gong Wang was a little bit a bit dissatisfied.
The sword master on the side turned his face slightly, feeling that these words were extremely shameless. How old were you when you were standing next to Tian Wujing?
"Pass this order."
Seeing that it was almost time, Uncle Zheng began to give formal orders.
For a moment, everyone under the handsome chariot knelt down.
"I am planning to attack the city today. I intend to complete my victory in one battle. I hope you will fight to the death. Whether it is the prince or your majesty, I will personally ask for credit!"
"The last will obey!"
"The last will obey!"
.........
"Ohh Ohh ohh!!!!!!!!!!"
The horn sounded.
Soldiers and horses from all walks of life began to quickly gather and take positions, and today's siege was about to begin.
Different from yesterday's test, which mainly focused on filling trenches, today is the highlight.
In the queue of auxiliary soldiers, Guo Dong whispered to Xu An beside him: "Did you see that there are nearly twice as many trebuchets and arrow towers today as there were yesterday."
Xu An nodded and said, "Today, I'm afraid I'm going to get serious."
"Tell me, do we have a chance to rush up together later?"
"It's so scary that if we have a chance, we'll pick up a knife on the ground." Xu An said.
Guo Dong nodded.
But he also knew that this opportunity was difficult, because each branch of the army had its own duties. Their job as an auxiliary soldier was to raise the shield.
Finally, with a round of bombardment by trebuchets, the Yan army's siege queue began to move forward.
With yesterday's actual combat, today, the cooperation between various departments and departments has become very tacit.
Guo Dong and Xu An still covered and pushed an arrow tower forward. After moving forward to a certain distance, Chu people's arrows also attacked.
The quality of the auxiliary soldiers is much higher than that of the militia. Moreover, after a period of training, after going to the battlefield yesterday and losing their youthfulness, everyone today seems more calm.
This is a change in temperament. There is a fundamental difference between veterans who have seen blood and recruits who have never been on the battlefield.
Guo Dong and Xu An even knew when they needed to be vigilant and when they could take a break.
Wait until the distance is closer,
Xu An reminded: "The Chu people's giant crossbow is about to shoot. Be careful and move closer to the arrow tower."
"Buzz!"
A giant crossbow arrow shot over, and the two shields in front of Guo Dong were penetrated, and one of them's arm was directly smashed. But fortunately, the giant crossbow arrow sank into the ground in front of Guo Dong, just half a step away. , Guo Dong's soles may be nailed to the ground.
"Ahhh!!!"
Paoze, who had broken his arm, was confused at first and didn't react. After a while, he realized what happened and started shouting.
But Guo Dong and Xu An could only bypass him and move on.
At this time, it was impossible for someone to come out to treat and protect Pao Ze, otherwise the warriors pushing the arrow tower behind him would be completely unprotected and fall under the arrows of the Chu people on the city wall.
However, soon, two savages came up from behind. They immediately rushed over, one on his back and the other on his back, and took the injured auxiliary soldier away from the battlefield.
There are many savages like this, and they serve as transporters for the wounded on the battlefield.
They have no armor or protection, so it is very dangerous when they rush to the battlefield. But as long as they can save a living wounded, they can get a bamboo stick. If they don't find the wounded, there is no problem. They can bring weapons and arrows back. Bamboo sticks can also be purchased by piece.
Often, pulling down a wounded person would cost one or two savages casualties, but they had no other choice.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Within the city wall, the Chu people's trebuchets began to counterattack, and the main target was still the arrow tower.
The number of trebuchets in Chu people's city today is obviously more than yesterday. Obviously, Chu people also saved some tricks yesterday.
But the trebuchets on the Yan army's side were doubled compared to yesterday!
After several rounds of projectiles, the momentum of the trebuchets in Churen City was quickly suppressed.
Snow Customs is really not that far from here, and Uncle Zheng's plan to research siege warfare with heavy ordnance was already in place last year, oh no, actually when he was in Shengle City.
It's just that there has been no chance to use it. Therefore, during the war against Chu, not only was there a craftsman's workshop in the military camp that continued to produce, but the family's capital was also completely pulled out.
Some instruments have even had their parts rusted due to being stored for too long. Fortunately, they can continue to be used after being replaced.
It is unrealistic to say that so many of them can be made from local materials outside the city in a short period of time.
For this war against Chu, Yingdu collected a large number of craftsmen and sent them to the front line, but King Jingnan did not allocate one to Uncle Zheng. Of course, Uncle Zheng himself was embarrassed to ask for one. , after all, King Jingnan had given the people of Tianji Pavilion to himself long ago.
On the battlefield,
On the city wall, under the city wall,
Boulders were smashed randomly, arrows were flying, and the scene was extremely intense.
Uncle Zheng's handsome chariot was still parked relatively far back this time, but he was looking at the battle ahead seriously.
Today, if the city wall can be taken down in one go, the Dongshan Fort will be taken down. But if we return without success today, we will inevitably fall into a protracted and fierce battle.
Although there is little hope of winning it today, you always have to have dreams, right?
The frontline team has successfully pushed up. Just like yesterday, the Yan army's crossbowmen on the arrow tower can even out the height disadvantage to shoot at the Chu army on the wall, and the Chu people's trebuchets are still defeated by the Yan people in terms of momentum. After the trebuchet is pressed down;
The balance of the battle was once again forcibly leveled by the siege party.
It is estimated that the Chu general guarding the city will also be very depressed. What kind of weird Yan army is he facing!
Uncle Zheng stretched out his hand,
Gongsun Mao put the barbarian sword in Uncle Zheng's hand.
"..." Uncle Zheng.
Gongsun Huan looked at Uncle Zheng with some doubts.
A Ming handed over the water bag.
Uncle Zheng shook his head, because this guy likes to use water bags to hold blood.
Last time when he was in Chongyang Village, Uncle Zheng was still wondering why the water in A Ming's wine bottle had a special taste. After realizing it later, Uncle Zheng was not disgusted to death.
The sword master handed over his water bag. Uncle Zheng threw the barbarian sword back to Gongsun Zhuan, took the water bag and took a sip, saying:
"It's time to storm the city."
The sword master said: "Can you defeat me today?"
Uncle Zheng pursed his lips,
Road:
"Look."
Whether we can win the battle depends on this wave.
Because when the arrow tower reaches a certain distance, the pins below will be pulled out, making the arrow tower the thickest siege ladder, leaning against the city wall.
If this battle cannot be won, the arrow towers will definitely be burned down by the Chu people after they retreat today. Even just building these arrow towers will take a lot of effort.
……
Before the battle,
The Savage King glanced at the clansmen wearing rattan armor behind him and shouted:
"Look up and open your mouth!"
All the savages sitting on the ground raised their heads and opened their mouths.
The Savage King waved his hand, and each of his men walked over with a bottle of kumiss and poured wine into their open mouths.
Someone drank and wiped his mouth with a fierce look in his eyes.
Someone drank it and tears appeared in their eyes.
The Savage King raised his hands,
shouted:
“If you want to eat meat, sleep with women, and don’t want to live like an animal, you have to risk your life!
I guarantee you that after today's battle and victory, those who survive will become like those Yan people, enjoying the hot food and drinking spicy food.
Countless women, endless food!
The stars gave us this opportunity, and the stars did not abandon us when we were in the most difficult time!
It still cares for its people, and it still gives us a ladder leading to glory.
just in front,
When those arrow towers fell against the city wall,
This is the beginning of our journey towards a better tomorrow!
Touch your armor,
Cleaning the knives in your hands,
same as me,
Together with this king,
For the stars,
For myself, for my family, for the snowfield,
Painful and happy,
Go forward indomitably,
Again,
Let's fight! "
finished,
The Savage King punched himself in the chest,
"The stars, favor our holy clan!"
"call!"
The Savage King waved his royal flag, and the snow wolf skin shone brightly in the sunshine.
With the waving of the royal flag,
There was also a wolf howl coming from the Savage King's mouth, which was the last pride of the Wolf King.
.........
Gongsun Zhi squatted there, looking at the guards under his command in front, and shouted:
"Many people say that we are white-eyed wolves, that we are ungrateful, and that we are... not a thing.
What this general wants to say is,
We cannot ignore what others say to us;
Because when people live this life, they just live for the sake of themselves in the eyes of others and for the sake of themselves in the mouths of others.
We are not saints,
We are human beings too.
But look at it, our prince committed suicide and destroyed his whole family. This is such a treasonous thing, but now who dares to say it, who dares to mention it!
what does this mean,
This shows that as long as our military achievements and status are high, no one will dare to expose your shortcomings!
Therefore,
today,
My Gongsun Zhi,
Please help me wash away my shame! "
"I would like to die for the general!"
"I would like to die for the general!"
.........
Rushing into the city, climbing first, saying that you will survive a narrow escape is a bit exaggerated, but most of the people are unlikely to come back alive. Facing a group of dying people, there is really nothing to be taboo about.
Especially as the first batch of soldiers to board the city, they had already put life and death aside. Now what the leading general needs is to ignite their blood a little more, a little more, and a little more!
Because many times, all we have to fight for is this breath!
If you hold on to this tone for a little longer, Chu Ren may be the one who collapses first!
As for the Snow Customs Department, which was also among the first batch of people ascending the city, the commander was Fan Li.
Dressed in a large iron can, he was sitting on the ground, but he was still much taller than the soldiers in front of him.
I heard that many generals next door were cheering up their soldiers.
Looking at the soldiers in front of him looking at him expectantly,
obviously,
Everyone’s expectations are very simple. They want what others have.
Soldiers just don't admit defeat, so they have to have this spirit of not admitting defeat!
Fan Li continued to sit there,
To be honest,
It was really too difficult for Fan Li to give a speech and do pre-war mobilization.
but,
Under the eager eyes of everyone in front of me,
Fan Li still raised his axe,
shouted:
"Ula!"
in front of
A group of Snow Customs soldiers immediately raised their weapons,
Shouting:
"Ula! Ula! Ula! Ula!!!!!!!"
