PreviousBack to directoryNext
The more than 10,000 people who were originally stagnant or even retreating slightly, received such a roar and saw the hundreds of corpses covered with arrows behind them. They were frightened and immediately turned around and rushed forward. They were four feet away from the city wall. They took five hundred steps, like a surging crowd, rushing toward the base of the wall. The few hundred people at the front rushed to the moat about thirty steps away from the city wall before they realized something was wrong and wanted to stop. However, the people running behind them couldn't see the situation in front of them at all. They were still rushing forward in a crowded way. In just an instant, the four to five hundred people at the front were squeezed out of the protective wall. ditch.

Yuan Song's eyes turned red when he saw it, and he roared: "What are you waiting for? Send me a crossbow, shoot an arrow, and kill these inhuman beasts!"

As Yuan Song's order was issued, the crossbow machine at the top of the city began to fire, and the sound of the crossbow gun was endless. When the trebuchet below the city was ejected, the sound of the falling arm and the shouts of the operating sergeants became one. Regiment, this is the roar of Hudu City, carrying the anger of Yuan Song and the entire city's soldiers and civilians, turning into flying stones and crossbows all over the sky, towards the Tianshi Dao siege army two hundred steps away, following the people. In the middle of the battle, vent to your heart’s content.

The three or four foot long crossbow gun hit the Tianshi Dao disciples who were attacking the city fiercely. Among the dense crowd, one shot was often able to penetrate two or three people, and those flying stones that filled the sky were only the size of watermelons. , but after hitting someone, not only can the unlucky guy be beaten to a bloody pulp, but it can also hit several people around him with a beating, and the stone will fall to the ground, with blood splattering everywhere, and broken limbs flying everywhere. , immediately caused hundreds of casualties among the dense siege teams.

But these Tianshi Dao disciples are not afraid of death. Even if their companions who are close at hand turn into blood and mud, they can't shake their stopped steps at all. After the sergeants carrying the ladder were killed, the nearest The walking companions will immediately step forward to fill the gap. The believers behind them step on the corpses in front of them. The feet of many people are covered with blood, mud and internal organs, but they keep chanting those days in their mouths. Teacher's slogan, keep moving forward.

The archers at the top of the city also began to fire arrows, shooting at the Tianshi Dao siege army formation a hundred steps away. Outside the city wall, in the ditch about thirty steps away, thousands of people had been shot. It was filled with corpses, and the ground was almost flat. Some poor guys still fell into the ditch, waving their hands to ask for help, but they were immediately stepped on by countless feet on their hands and heads. Gradually, there was no movement, and they kept stopping. Someone tripped, fell into a pit, and was quickly trampled by people behind him. He couldn't even make a sound and died.

Tianshi Dao's military formation stopped about seventy steps away from the city. More than a thousand sergeants holding shields rushed out of the military formation, blocking the two thousand archers at the front. In front of them, they waved the shields in their hands to resist the arrows flying like locusts, while these archers all bent their bows and nocked arrows, standing there, shooting arrows at the city head. They were all muscular. , has thick upper limbs, and the accuracy and power of the bows and arrows fired are far stronger than those of the defenders on Hudu City. Even if they shoot under the city, the height is disadvantageous, and they can still compete with the arrow attacks from the top of the city. Favorably.

"Whoosh" and "whoosh", two long arrows flew past Yuan Song's head at a distance of less than a foot. He was so frightened that he shrank his head. He only heard two "ding" and "ding" sounds, and the two arrows shot He hit the tower behind him and stared at the pillar, still shaking slightly.

Wei Shunzhi waved the shield in his hand, came to Yuan Song's side, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yuan, these monster thieves are extremely elite, and their archers are well-trained. It is difficult for us to suppress them at the top of the city. Now we need to mobilize our crossbows and slingers." The striking distance of the car depends on the archers in the front row."

Yuan Song opened his mouth wide: "This, this can't work, adjust the distance, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it will hurt the people below the city!"

Wei Shunzhi stamped his feet anxiously: "Mr. Yuan, what time is it! Do you still care about these people? They..."

Before he finished speaking, suddenly, more than a hundred yellow dumplings flew from the bottom of the city to the top of the city, smoking and emitting a pungent and choking smell. Wei Shunzhi's face changed and he shouted: "No Okay, it's poisonous sulfur smoke. Hurry, cover your nose." He said, tearing off a corner of his clothes and covering his mouth and nose. But in just a moment, poisonous smoke filled the city. At least hundreds of archers fell limply, and most of the remaining ones were bent over and coughing violently. The number of people who could continue to shoot arrows was less than one-third.

The guards around Yuan Song quickly pulled off their clothes and covered his nose. Yuan Song shouted: "These, these poisonous smokes, cough cough cough, where did they come from?"

Chen Yi leaned out, looked outside the city, and shouted: "It's a demon thief. It's a demon thief who mingled among the people and threw poisonous smoke at the top of the city!"

Yuan Song took advantage of the situation and saw that among the crowd of people below the city, people kept throwing yellow poisonous smoke onto the city. The city was only more than ten feet high. As long as you stood within ten steps of the city wall, , almost raised their hands, and some people even started to throw the rope hooks up to the city, hooked them on the battlements, and started to climb up the city!

Wei Shunzhi flew up and kicked off the burning poisonous sulfur smoke that was two steps in front of Yuan Song. He yelled: "Throw all the sulfur down the city. Rolling logs and stones towards the city to say hello, no!" Anyone approaching the walls!"

Yuan Song finally came to his senses at this moment and shouted: "Fire your arrows, fire your arrows quickly. Anyone who approaches the city walls and gates will be killed without mercy!"

And at this moment, suddenly, a wave of heat hit his face. Wei Shunzhi quickly waved his shield again and blocked Yuan Song. More than a dozen guards also drew their swords and blocked them one after another. It turned out that it was this wave. The rain of siege arrows was replaced by rockets, like hundreds of firebirds, rushing towards the city head filled with yellow smoke. Many rockets hit the sulfur blocks that were still on the ground and had not had time to be thrown to the city. A fire soared into the sky, igniting everything within a foot of the surrounding area. The launching crossbows, the archery sergeants, the arrow towers at the top of the city, the oars and oars, including the towers at the back, were all plunged into ashes. In the sea of ​​fire.

Most of the thousands of archers and sergeants at the top of the city were ignited by these flames. Some people just picked up the sulfur on the ground and wanted to throw it to the city, but they were ignited by these rockets. Suddenly, The whole person turned into a burning fireball, struggling and twisting, or igniting the people around him, or simply jumping off the city wall in pain and falling into the crowd outside the city.

Wei Yongzhi grabbed Yuan Song, who was stunned, and shouted sternly: "Mr. Yuan, retreat to the inner city quickly, we can't defend here!"
