Chapter 141 The sword points to the curtain city!(1/2)
Three days later.
Outside the city, flags roared and drums were loud.
The Shang army attacked again!
The leader was Youhouxi. This time he brought two divisions to challenge the battle.
Youhouxi stood on the chariot.
Looking at the walls several feet ahead, my eyes were filled with coldness and caution.
He raised his sword.
Pointing to the Mucheng Tower!
Today, the order given to him was very clear: to siege the city, siege at any cost, even if the army of 6,000 people was sacrificed, it would be spared!
but......
Youhouxi did not hesitate at all.
Reply directly!
He did not take the lives of these soldiers to heart at all. In his eyes, these soldiers were not living lives, but piles of mustards that could be abandoned at any time!
As long as you can complete the king's order!
These sacrifices are worth it!
He lowered his head and looked at the soldiers below who were wearing Shang army armor and holding Shang army weapons, with a thrilling expression, his eyes full of coldness and disdain.
None of these soldiers are Shang soldiers!
But a slave!
This is an army formed by slaves!
More than ten days ago, after the king decided to attack Mucheng again, he privately ordered him to draw the young and strong army among the slaves who accompanied the army to form a new army and a death-sleeping squad!
Of course it's not for them to really die.
But let them lose!
These slaves were captured by Emperor Xin conquered other countries and tribes. Many people have participated in the confrontation with the Shang army and have a lot of experience in losing and running away.
This group of experienced "soldiers" went up to fight.
Di Xin is very relieved!
Of course, if you want these slaves to fight with the enemy, you naturally need other means, and what Emperor Xin chose was to give them a chance.
An opportunity to become a businessman!
The states they were in had all been destroyed and became part of the Shang Dynasty.
Emperor Xin promised that as long as they entered the army, they would become merchants no matter what the result of the siege, and those with excellent performance could become merchants!
As soon as this news came out.
All the slaves came to vote.
Many of them have been slaves for a long time and are already insensitive to the status quo, but they still attach great importance to their families. This decree of Emperor Xin undoubtedly touched their hearts.
The two divisions, six thousand people were recorded as the best.
During these ten days, these 6,000 people trained extremely hard. They did not fight for Di Xin, but for themselves and for their families.
They want to live!
They don't want to be slaves anymore!
......
When the two armies were facing each other across the city, Ju Qi, the leader of the Renfang tribe, stood at the top of the city, looking at the sudden attack on the Shang army, frowned, and felt extremely alert.
He fought with the Shang army for many years.
I know the power of the Shang Dynasty.
Although he didn't understand why the Shang army was defeated and dared to take risks to attack, he did not dare to be careless at all.
Although others won the previous few times, they all won miserably.
The casualties were also heavy.
At this time, the scout who was out returned from sending a message.
"Report!"
"The leader, according to the letter from the scout, the soldiers outside the city were the vanguard of the Shang army, with about five or six thousand people, and tens of thousands of troops stationed several miles behind."
"The enemy's entire army attacked again!"
Juqi nodded.
Looking at the army outside the city, my heart was calm.
Respond to changes with the same change.
He wanted to see what other tricks could the Shang army have?
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
At this moment, the Shang army began to beat the drums.
but.
This time, unlike usual, the Shang Dynasty army did not attack directly, but instead divided a wide road from it, which was more than one meter wide.
Ju Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Look closely.
Enjoy the eyes.
It is a long-tailed pheasant.
It is extremely huge and lifelike, especially its pupils, which are domineering and domineering.
Just one glance.
Ju Qi was stunned.
That is clearly the totem of their tribe!
Seeing that the Shang Dynasty army was about to move, Ju Qi's face suddenly turned dark and he cursed angrily.
"Shameless! Shameless!!"
This was the first time he saw the Shang army so shameless, and he used their totem to threaten them, forcing them not to fight back. The key is that the Shang army could really succeed.
At least.
Now the soldiers guarding the city no longer dare to shoot arrows.
That's their totem.
The totem they have always believed in since they were born.
The soldiers guarding the city did not dare to make any moves.
But You Houxi had no scruples. With a wave of his hand, the drums suddenly sounded loudly. The sound of dong dong spread throughout the battlefield, and the Shang army attacked!
Rows of soldiers rushed towards the city gate one after another.
And at the front is the pheasant!
Up the city tower.
The soldiers holding bows and arrows looked at Juqi blankly.
Asked tremblingly:
"Chief, will this arrow be shot?"
"That is the totem of our tribe and our patron saint!"
Juqi had a gloomy face.
The face is so gloomy that it can drip out of water!
He has no choice!
Do not shoot!
But seeing Shang Jun move forward step by step, Ju Qi gritted his teeth, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and he said with a cold voice:
"shoot!"
"The Shang army must be prevented from approaching the city wall!"
"After these battles, the power in the city has been greatly lost. If the Shang army is not consuming with the high walls and fighting with the Shang army for a few more times, the people in the city will be wiped out."
"Now the coalition forces of various tribes are rushing here, we must delay time as much as possible."
