As the dwarf Hu Jiujiu's wild laughter went underground and turned into a strange noise, the originally opened hole returned to normal, except that it was no longer blocked by the turf, and it still looked like it had just been turned over.
However, for the current situation where the entrance of the cave is within the long wall, there is no need to worry about leaking any information, because according to what Hu Jiujiu said, this crypt is almost close to the city wall.
Helan Harimu's voice came from the top of the city: "How about it, General Zhuge, should we continue to fight, or should we make a truce temporarily and collect the corpses?"
Zhuge Changmin stood up and said in a deep voice to Helan Harimu: "Since you said this, you just want to buy time to reorganize the city defense. I shouldn't give you this opportunity, but I, Zhuge Changmin, have always looked down upon me.
Brothers are like brothers, and we can’t bear to have their corpses buried under the city and be destroyed by arrows and stones again, so let’s have a truce for half an hour, let’s sort out the corpses, and then fight again!”
Helan Harimu smiled and said: "He is indeed General Zhuge, who loves his soldiers as much as his sons. Well, it's up to you. It won't be too late for us to fight again in an hour!"
As he spoke, he turned around and walked back. From this direction, you could clearly see him walking into a wooden box that had just been raised. There was a sound of a mechanism, and soon no one was seen, and a large number of Yan Army soldiers
, also disappeared at the top of the city, leaving only a few hundred civilians visible to the naked eye, wearing thin clothes, still busy going back and forth, carrying stones and corpses at the top of the city.
There was a sound of horse hoofbeats, but it was Liu Huaishen who came riding his horse. When he was under the long siege, he looked at Zhuge Changmin with an angry look on his face and said loudly: "Changmin, why did you stop attacking the city and make such an alliance with the enemy?
?”
Zhuge Changmin looked at the army in front of him. When he arrived, there were three thousand, well-equipped, and armored troops. Now there were more than one-third less, but the sergeants still gritted their teeth and stood firm.
Like the barrels of guns, the archers still nocked their bows and nocked arrows, pointing directly at the city. Obviously, they did not want to retreat and were still waiting for the order to continue fighting. If Zhuge Changmin hadn't paid the money to withdraw his troops just now, I'm afraid they would have continued to attack the city.
Already.
Zhuge Changmin sighed softly and said: "Huaishen, how many more brothers do you want to lose? This is the Chinese army, the elite guards of the slaves, and they are all good young men from Jingkou. Is it possible?
Are you so hard-hearted that you can't bear them to make unnecessary sacrifices?"
Liu Huaishen's eyes sparkled with tears. As the son of his aunt who had been fostered by Liu Yu since he was a child, he had given Liu Yu more than half of his mother's milk since he was a child, and his own milk was insufficient. Not only compared with the brave and invincible Liu Yu, but also compared with Liu Yu.
Comparatively, his compatriot brother Liu Huaisu is inferior in many ways, even a little reckless, and his intelligence is not as good as ordinary people. Even his son Liu Deyuan, who is only fifteen years old, is like a five-year-old child. He doesn't know how much he has given behind his back.
People have laughed at it.
Even some of the children of aristocratic families in the court expressed to Liu Yu explicitly or covertly that Liu Huaishen was of low intelligence and was not qualified to serve as an official or a general. However, Liu Yu still insisted on giving him the positions of county guard and general, and even more so.
The army guards were given to him, and he was also asked to independently lead the attack on Dongcheng this time. Obviously, he wanted to give this clan brother a chance to make meritorious deeds. Now he saw that the siege failed and suffered heavy casualties. Even the famous warrior Tang Fang
Death on the battlefield, why couldn't Liu Huai's heart be as sharp as a knife and he wanted to fight to the end?
However, no matter how stupid Liu Huaishen was, he knew that his side had no chance of victory. This time, he actually wanted Zhuge Changmin to send reinforcements and reorganize a second offensive.
He said in a deep voice: "Brother Changmin, although we suffered a lot of losses, the Yan army also lost a lot of troops. They just relied on the wooden box that can quickly go to the city to move their troops up and down the city. I
When Fang Fashi hid below, we went up to the city to fight. This time, as long as we increase our manpower and use dozens of more ladders to rush up, we can even use ropes and claw hooks to put as many troops as possible into the city.
The head can definitely be taken off."
Zhuge Changmin shook his head gently: "Your men and horses are all heavily armored warriors. I'm afraid these ropes and claw hooks are of no use."
Liu Huaishen gritted his teeth: "Many of your subordinates are swordsmen and rangers who are agile and can fly over walls and walls. This style of fighting is the most suitable for them. After entering the city, both sides cannot form formations to fight with long weapons. The swordsmen's
Swords and close combat are where you can show off your skills. Brother Changmin, don’t conserve your strength now. Come with us and charge again. Don’t let Lord Tang and others sacrifice their lives in vain!”
When he said this, tears were about to flow.
Zhuge Changmin sighed: "Huaishen, Tang Fang is also my brother. He enlisted in the army with many of my subordinates. I also took him with me back then. You are not the only one who has feelings for him, but now is not the time to be emotional. We only have
We must first clear away the rubble and corpses under the city wall before we have a chance to attack the city again."
Liu Huaishen opened his eyes wide: "Is it true that we have only temporarily cleared the passage to attack the city? Will we organize another attack?"
Zhuge Changmin nodded seriously, turned to Zhuge Limin beside him and said: "Second brother, you will lead the team yourself, and the three thousand elite soldiers of Beiqingzhou will be left to you."
Zhuge Limin's face flashed with joy, and he suddenly thought of something: "Ah, brother, you are not..."
Zhuge Changmin quickly winked and said in a deep voice: "What is not this and not that? Didn't I say it before? We want to avenge brother Tang Fang and the soldiers who died. When we finish clearing the city wall, that's
When the time comes for the big kill, you have to be more flexible and don't fall behind others!"
Zhuge Limin was very clear-minded. Zhuge Changmin wanted him to rush in front when the city wall collapsed and not let others take the credit. But at this moment, Zhuge Changmin didn't want to tell Liu Huaishen about this underground strategy.
This rough guy may be afraid that he will leak the news and alert the enemy. Zhuge Limin nodded: "Brother, just take good care of my performance."
As he said this, he turned around and jumped from the top of the long wall. When he landed, the huge momentum made the long wall shake slightly. He took out a pear from his arms and took a few bites.
, while chewing, he said solemnly to the three thousand light-armored sword players who had already lined up behind the long circle: "Brothers, get ready to work, follow me!"
Liu Huaishen listened to the cheers from the crowd and nodded excitedly: "Okay, thank you, Brother Changmin. Thank you, Brother Changmin. I want to thank you for Tang Fang!"
Xie Ge Changmin smiled slightly: "This is what I should do, Huaishen, don't worry, now I will send people to clear the city wall. When the battle starts later, you and the people of Li will charge first, and I will lead the army to follow. Don't break the east city. I, Zhuge
Changmin is unworthy of being a man!"
