Chapter 4 Choices (Six Parts) The moment when more than twenty armored infantry climbed up the city wall, in order to avoid accidental damage, the archers immediately shifted the focus of their attack elsewhere. With the shrill sound of horns, more infantry went crazy.
They rushed forward on the Weirang Avenue, following the route that the armored infantry had walked out with their corpses, and rushed forward quickly. However, their forward speed slowed down. The Weirang Avenue was too narrow, and everyone could only move forward one by one. The armored infantry was the first to board the city.
However, the infantry were unable to expand their foothold. After calming down from their excitement, they suddenly discovered that except for the short section of the city wall facing the Weirang Road, they could not go anywhere!
There is no road ahead. Wearing dozens of kilograms of heavy armor and jumping from the top of the city more than two feet high, even a god would have to fall to his death. There are sandbags as high as a person on the right side. The passages to other sections of the city have been blocked. The sandbags
On the other side, countless spears flashed with cold light, and on the left side of the watchtower, there was a scene that the armored infantrymen least wanted to believe. Five or six rows, with more than a hundred enemy elites, were rushing out there. Almost everyone
Both hands hold a thick spear.
"Kill!" Yu Wenshi and his family generals stepped forward in person and stabbed an armored infantryman with a bewildered face with his long sword. He raised his forearm and pressed down on his back arm. With a sudden force, he killed the enemy.
The corpse was picked up high and thrown far away to the fish beam road.
"Kill!" Several generals of the Yuwen clan shouted in unison, thrusting their spears sharply, knocking over the enemy soldiers closest to them. Their skills were far better than ordinary soldiers. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty armored soldiers were the first to board the city.
Half of the infantry had fallen, and the remaining half were driven back with spears by veterans of the Xiongwu Camp.
Two armored infantrymen who were close to the city wall climbed up the battlements, swung their swords at Yu Wenshi and the flankers. Li Xu led his soldiers to meet them. He swung his black sword quickly, cutting open the opponent's weakest neck armor, and tore the two headless bodies into pieces.
The corpses of the armored soldiers were pushed down the city wall. The armored soldiers approaching the city were suddenly startled. They pushed each other and rushed back. The soldiers who came up from behind did not know what was going on. They pushed forward with all their strength and shouted, pushing the armored soldiers towards the city wall again.
"Fuck your grandma!" Seeing the advantage, Zhou Daniu stabbed a rebel armored soldier against the battlements with the spear in his hand. He was being squeezed against the city wall by the people behind him. His chest was flush with the battlements. Seeing Zhou Daniu's spear stabbing him, he hurriedly
To dodge Naihe, the people behind him were crowded too tightly, leaving no room for him to dodge. The spear in Zhou Daniu's hand penetrated through the gap between the two armor leaves. He poked out the enemy's back and thrust it hard
As soon as the spear was pulled out, a pillar of blood spurted out, splashing all over the bodies of several armored infantrymen around.
"One!" Zhou Daniu shouted, and he stretched out his spear to stab the next enemy soldier. There was not much chance. Before rushing out from the enemy tower, Captain Zhang Xiu told him that if he wanted to avenge Qian Xiaoliu, he must grab the armored infantry at the top of the city.
Action before being killed. Once the two adults, Yu Wenshiji and Li Xu, cooperate to kill all the armored infantry on the top of the city, the enemy's arrows will definitely cover them again.
The two newly recruited soldiers raised their spears and followed Zhou Daniu's example to stab the enemy troops who were climbing the city. They heard a "click" sound and the spear shafts were cut off by the enemy soldiers with their swords. The two men were unable to retreat.
, directly pressed the broken spear on the enemy's chest. The armored infantry who was stabbed groaned in pain, and strode back. The soldiers who rushed up from behind pushed forward hard, and pushed their bodies firmly towards the city wall.
"Ah!" The rebel soldier with half of the spear shaft on his chest screamed in pain and swung his sword with all his strength, cutting the spear shaft that had been broken once again. The two new soldiers of the Xiongwu camp turned around and tried to escape, but suddenly their heart stopped.
As soon as they got cold, their whole body lost all intuition. When they turned around, they saw two other enemy soldiers who had arrived at the city at some unknown time and rushed towards them with a smile. The broad blade was drawn out on their backs, and then they struck again.
Before they fell, they saw General Li and his personal soldiers returning to help and slashing their enemies. General Li and his personal guards forced him to the edge of the other side of the city wall. Then, the two recruits felt that their vision was gradually blurring, and they fell into darkness forever.
In front of them, they were pleased to see the enemy troops kicked off the city by General Lang.
"Ah!" The injured armored infantry was kicked directly from the inside of the city wall by Li Xu. Xu Zi no longer had to worry about his life and death. Xu Zi turned around and took over the opponent who was facing Zhang Xiufang.
First, knock off the opponent's ring-headed sword with one knife, and then chop the opponent's armor with another knife.
The area at the top of the city where the enemy and we were fighting was very small. The more than 20 armored infantry who climbed up to the top of the city were quickly killed by Xuzi, Yuwenshi and their men before the enemy archers made any move.
Before they could react correctly, the two men and their soldiers rushed to the edge of the city wall. Some rebel soldiers were trying to climb the city wall. They grabbed the city wall with their arms and pushed their upper bodies up. Li Xu, Yu Wenshi and others pounced on them, one on the left.
Right, send these cheap targets that can't be beaten to Huangquan Road
The illusion that the city wall opposite Yuliang Road had been breached deceived many enemy troops. With victory in sight, they focused all their attention on the breach, and even forgot to provide more support to the ladder climbers to seize the opportunity. Li Anyuan organized a vicious wave of
The enemy soldiers who were trying to climb up the ladder fell to the ground like ripe rotten pears.
"Spill oil on the ladder!" Li Anyuan loudly reminded his brothers. This was the experience gained by Xiaoguo in the Sui Dynasty in exchange for blood under the Liaodong City. It was particularly easy to deal with the city climbers, so several loyal and brave veterans used knives to cut the oil.
Bucket, lift up the bucket and pour the whole bucket of vegetable oil onto the ladder. The enemy soldiers holding the ladder could not escape and were immediately bathed in oil. Several enemy warriors who were still working hard on the ladder felt their feet slippery, and their climbing speed increased immediately.
The brothers from Dajiaxiong Military Camp put their torches out of the city wall and lit the ladder directly.
More than forty fire dragons jumped up one after another beside the city wall. From a distance, the scenery was very spectacular. "Fight the fire, put out the fire, you idiot! Without the ladder, I will tear your bones apart!" Li Mi, who was supervising the battle two hundred steps away, was very angry.
All were lost, and they shouted and cursed loudly, reminding the soldiers to bring down the hard-earned ladders and use the wet mud on the ground to put out the fire. "Fight the fire, put out the fire first!" Li Mi's soldiers shouted in unison, conveying the general's order to the bottom of the city and the ladders were poured down one after another.
As it went on, the attack pressure on the city head was greatly reduced. More stones and rolling logs were smashed down, sending the rebels near the base of the city wall flying.
"Archers, archers, shoot, shoot!" Han Shihe pointed at the top of the city with his horse, and loudly ordered the archers who had woken up to quickly bend their bows, and suppressed the suddenly arrogant defenders again to the vicinity of the fish beam road behind the crenel.
They didn't dare to cover it with arrows. The enemy and we were too close there, and they couldn't guarantee not to hurt their brothers.
"It's almost time, prepare to retreat to the enemy tower!" Yu Wenshiji used his spear to force away the enemy soldiers closest to the city wall, turned to Li Xu and shouted
"Brothers, retreat to the enemy tower!" Li Xu used a black knife to sweep off the other half of the head near the city head, and then issued the retreat order.
The brothers in the Xiongwu Camp covered each other and retreated into the enemy tower, leaving the small section of the city wall covered with corpses to the rebels again. Seeing the incredible behavior of the defending side, several rebels finally rushed to the wall.
He actually lost the courage to climb up and stood on the weirway, stunned.
"Yirang Road, Yuliang Road!" Li Mi was so angry that he dropped his feather fan, grabbed the flag and waved it with all his strength.
Seeing the general's instructions, the archers turned their horn bows again and covered the empty bloody city wall opposite the Weirang Road with white feathers.
"Beat the drum for me. Whoever is first in the city will be promoted to the third level, and he can take the wealth in the city!" Li Mi saw that the resistance on the top of the city disappeared again and shouted to the messengers around him.
The messenger mounted his horse and quickly sent out the latest instructions from the military advisor.
The sound of the war drums was as fast as thunder, urging the soldiers who rushed to the fish beam road to speed up and die. Under the coercion of military orders and the temptation of the desire to get rich, the few armored infantry at the front hesitated, put their left hands on the city wall, and moved to the city wall.
The defender's reaction once again surprised them. The soldiers in the enemy tower may have been too tired and did not immediately launch a counterattack.
"Brothers, come on!" A soldier in brigade uniform shouted and struggled to climb over the city wall. He was smart and did not try to seize the watchtower. Instead, under the cover of his companions, he quickly ran to the other side of the city wall.
"They're scared, come on!" On the fish beam road, when they saw the loose rebels in front, they clambered up to the top of the city one after another with loud noises and rushed towards the crenellations on the inside of the city wall.
"I will lead the charge, you will manage here!" Li Xu shouted to Yu Wenshi and waved his hand, and led his bodyguard to jump out of the enemy building again.
His soldiers are all the strongest men in a hundred, and the weapons in their hands and the armor on their bodies are also of the highest quality in the Xiongwu camp. With a large local numerical advantage, the enemy troops on the city wall are no match at all. The people who climbed up the city wall are very fast.
The rebel soldiers were killed and dispersed, and the foothold they finally gained returned to the feet of the defenders.
"Seal the outer wall, seal the outer wall!" Li Xu chopped down his opponent, turned around and ordered loudly
"Brothers, close the door and beat the dogs!" Zhang Xiu led more than 20 guards and rushed to the edge of the city wall. Through the battlements, they tried their best to push away the incoming enemy soldiers one by one with their spears.
Li Xu led Zhou Daniu and others to turn around and attack the few rebels who had slipped through the wall and were unable to resist, so they were knocked down one after another.
"Jump off the city!" Seeing that the momentum was not good, the enemy brigade shouted loudly, grabbing the rope with both hands, exerting force with their feet, and fell down along the crenellations of the city wall. This position is close to the city gate. If there are enough brothers to slide down together, everyone will have it.
Opportunity opened the city gate and let in more brothers. As he pulled the rope and slid down quickly, he was excitedly looking forward to the moment when he would achieve unparalleled feats. He didn't even notice that the defenders above him ignored his actions, as if
He has become a dead man
The brave Lu Lulu finally stepped on the ground, threw off the rope, and rushed towards the city gate. After a few steps, he and a dozen equally brave brothers were stunned by the sandbags. The dense sandbags were pushed from the ground to the top.
Not to mention a dozen warriors descended from the top of the city gate cave, but three thousand elites jumped down after them. For a while, there was nothing they could do with these sandbags.
Hundreds of spears surrounded them from all directions. Qin Gang, who joined the army in Mingfa, led his reserve team brothers and looked mockingly at the guy who had thrown himself into the trap. Without saying a word, "Dang Cang!" the rebel brigade leader heard someone behind him.
The sound of the weapon falling to the ground was, "Cang!" and soon there was another "Ah--" He let out a long roar in despair, turned the knife head, and broke his own neck.
After harvesting more than fifty lives, Li Xu withdrew again. There were not many armored soldiers on the Yuliang Road of the enemy tower. He and Yu Wenshiji's plan was to quickly consume and kill all the elite rebels. The rebels
The attack power of the army will be greatly reduced. As the core of Xiongwu Camp, Yuwen Shiji and him can more easily dispatch manpower to deal with abnormal situations elsewhere on the city wall.
"I'll handle the next round of attacks. You siege the formation in the enemy tower!" Yu Wenshi quickly greeted Li Xu and discussed with him in a low voice that there were still several hours before dark, and the task of defense was still very arduous. It was not an easy task for Li Mi.
The guys who admit defeat, Yuwenshiji and Xuzi must take turns fighting to save their energy.
"Okay!" Li Xu nodded and responded with one word. The fighting was too hard. The wounds he suffered yesterday were pulled again. The sweat penetrated the cloth belt, making the wounds painful and itchy.
Yu Wenshiji gently patted Xu Zi's shoulder, turned around and walked to the junction of the watchtower and the city wall to prepare. The archers under Li Mi once again covered this section of the city wall with feather arrows. After the shooting was over, a new round of killing began.
will start
"I wonder what the situation is like with Lieutenant Li?" Yuwen Shiji raised his head and looked towards the city in the distance. He saw that the enemy's ladder was erected again. Countless rebel soldiers were clinging to the city wall and climbed up the ladder like ants, slowly.
Slowly move upwards, and the defenders' cold arrows and rocks will continue to hit them, knocking down the person who climbs the fastest.
"What are they fighting for?" Yu Wenshiji suddenly felt that the enemy's behavior was very ridiculous, as if they were rushing towards a dead end. It is said that the same is true for ants moving. As long as the leading ant crawls forward, even if there is an oil pan in front, other ants will not care.
Fear of the absurd thoughts that surged up at that moment distracted him, and he was almost cut off by a stream of arrows bouncing off the ground.
"No matter what he is fighting for, it is still about fighting for the word!" Yu Wenshi muttered angrily, and flattened the long stick in his hand with force. This long stick has been soaked in his hard work for more than twenty years. Since he was eight years old,
I kept practicing hard under the supervision of my father and brother.
"You are the son of the Yuwen family, and you do everything for the family!" He was taught this way as he was less than one-tenth of his height.
"Shiji, do you remember your last name?" After the eunuch who conveyed the emperor's marriage decree left, his father shouted to Yuwen Shiji, who was still in excitement.
"Boys from the Yuwen family, follow me!" Yuwen Shiji sneered and pointed his long spear straight ahead.
