Chapter 4 Choice (six hits) Feather arrows fell from the sky like hailstones, smashing into pieces of blood mist on the city wall opposite the Yuliang Avenue. White hairs sprouted on the corpses like hedgehogs, regardless of whether they were guards.
The army and the rebels were still together, and Yujian didn't have the eyes or mind to tell the difference. There was an armored infantryman who was obviously not completely exhausted. He raised his head with difficulty in the "hail" from hell and crawled inch by inch into the enemy building.
, a long blood-stained feather arrow was dragged out from behind and fell down in waves, hitting his armor, until finally one penetrated the fine armor leaves!
"Li Mi is crazy!" Xuzi wiped the blood on his face and cursed in a low voice. He had a few more injuries on his body, one of which was particularly serious on his right arm. Although the black armor presented by Tang Gong Li Yuan was of excellent quality, it was not
Less than invulnerable, at this moment, the red muscles and broken armor were opened together, like a baby's mouth. Zhou Daniu and Zhang Xiu held medicine gourds and tried their best to sprinkle medicinal powder and gold sore medicine on the wound, but they were quickly covered by it.
The blood washes away and has no effect
"It's okay! Use a strip of cloth to tie it here!" Sun Jin, the doctor of the Sui army, tapped the wound with his finger and ordered indifferently. He had seen too many deaths in this day, and this small injury in front of him could no longer arouse his surprise.
"Your Majesty General, Your Majesty General's..." Zhou Daniu pointed at Li Xu's blood-gourd-like head and hesitated to speak.
"That's other people's blood!" Sun Jin rolled his eyelids, turned around and walked towards the other injured. This cold action aroused the anger of many personal guards. Some of the angry ones rushed forward and took the unscrupulous doctor back and beat him up.
, Li Xu stopped their reckless behavior with his left hand.
"It's indeed someone else's!" He explained in a low voice that the blood on his face was someone else's. In the round of fighting just now, at least three more enemy warriors were beheaded by him, one of whom was half a head taller than him.
, after being struck by the black knife, the blood burst out like a fountain, dyeing the sky and the earth red.
The sun in the sky had already turned to the west. For most of the day, except for the occasional climb up the city wall and being driven down by the brothers from the Xiongwu Camp, the rebels achieved nothing. Li Mi tried to use the Yuliang Avenue to make achievements.
It became a gate of hell. Countless rebels rushed up from here, but no one could turn back.
"Son of a bitch, you still don't want to be black!" Yuwen Shiji panted and walked forward, complaining loudly. At this moment, he felt like he had just been washed from a pool of blood, and there was another light streak on his left forehead, which was wet all over his body.
The scar was drawn from the tip of the eyebrow to just below the earlobe, adding a bit of sharpness to the originally elegant appearance. I have to say that this boy is becoming more and more masculine. The feminine feeling on his body has been replaced by masculinity. The whole person stands there.
, like an unsheathed steel knife
"I estimate that after dark, they will stay up late to fight at night, and their morale will get lower and lower. They will have to be on guard against our reinforcements at all times!" Li Xu thought about it from the other side's perspective and answered.
According to his calculations with Yu Wenshi and two other people, after receiving the news that Liyang City was captured, other counter-rebellion armies will definitely march towards the bank of the Yellow River at starry and night hours, at the marching speed of the soldiers, as early as tomorrow night, and as late as
At sunset the day after tomorrow, there must be a new force belonging to one's own side that can arrive. There is indeed not much time left for Li Mi and Han Shihe, so it is no wonder that the other side fights with them regardless of casualties.
The battle for attacking a city is consumption! I don’t know which military strategist summed up such a wise saying. It was just more than three hours of fighting. There were at least more than 7,000 corpses on the city and below. Xuzi and Yuwenshi had been mobilized several times to prepare.
Soldiers and horses were replenished to various critical parts of the city. The teams responsible for attacking the city under Han Shihe and Li Mi also changed several times.
The defense method formulated by the generals of the Xiongwu Camp based on the Goguryeo people's method of defending Liaodong was very effective. A large number of enemy troops were consumed in futile attacks at this rate. Even if Liyang was finally captured, the rebels who attacked the city
The army also became a remnant.
The experience of never returning has severely damaged the morale of the attackers. When they heard the order to attack, they no longer risked their lives as they did in the morning. Some people were still unable to work, shouting loudly and came forward, and were attacked by the defenders.
After blocking the attack, they quickly escaped. Li Mi's team of supervisors executed many such "smart people", but after the next attack began, there were still a large number of soldiers who used deceit to deceive the eyes of the team.
"Gululu——"
"Woo--wow--wow!"
The sound of war drums under the city wall is getting duller and duller, and the sound of horns is also like the cicadas in late autumn. Every sound is weaker than the last, and the urging drums are weaker than the last. The attacking teams do not speed up immediately, but crawl forward like ants. As they walk, some people keep shouting.
look back
When this happened in the past, the rebel leader immediately sent people forward to urge the battle. But this time, the war supervisor did not rush up in time. Xuzi and Yuwenshi, who were observing the enemy's movements, looked into the distance in surprise.
I just happened to see the strange scenery in the enemy's main formation.
Li Mi and Han Shihe were arguing! Xuzi and Yuwenshi, who were standing on the enemy tower, could not hear what the enemy general more than 200 steps away was discussing, but they could see that Han Shihe was very angry and kept waving his arms while talking.
Li Mi dropped his feather fan and held a long spear in his hand. He kept pointing at the Yuliang Road. After a moment, Han Shihe kicked away a giant shield beside him and walked away bitterly. Li Mi used the long spear in his hand with all his strength.
He smashed the soil, then waved the command flag and ordered his soldiers to continue the attack.
"Han Shihe couldn't bear to leave his soldiers, but Li Mi didn't want today's battle to end!" Yu Wenshi pointed at the densely packed corpses under the city wall and analyzed in a low voice the reason for the dispute between the two core generals of the other side.
"Han Shihe's objections at this time will not help the matter!" Li Xu thought for a while and answered from the perspective of the rebels. As the commander-in-chief of the army, he understood Han Shihe's feelings at this time, but the commander-in-chief and the military advisor lost their temper in front of the entire army.
And, it was a very unreasonable behavior. Thinking of this, he secretly glanced at Yuwen Shiji beside him. By chance, Yuwen Shiji's eyes also secretly glanced over. The two people's eyes met and they quickly avoided it.
A smile immediately appeared on his face
"It seems that Li Mi, the military advisor, has the final say than the general Han Shihe!" Zhang Xiu pointed at the enemy troops under the city and loudly announced his new discovery.
"Han Shihe is a rebel general, and Li Mi is Yang Xuangan's trusted rebel. Naturally, the military advisor has more power than the general!" Yu Wenshi shrugged his shoulders and turned the topic elsewhere with contempt on his face. "If Yang Xuangan really knows how to use people, he shouldn't
Putting these two guys together, Li Mi can only be used to win over heroes. With his famous reputation, he can really deceive a lot of people and use him to lead troops in war..." He stopped commenting.
He grabbed the long stick and walked to the junction between the city wall and the watchtower. This time it was his turn to lead the team to meet the enemy. No matter whether Li Mi was in vain or not, only those who could defend Liyang City were qualified to judge.
"Send an order to Qin Canjun and ask him to send one hundred and fifty of his strongest men to climb directly into the enemy tower from the long rope!" Li Xu turned around and told Zhou Daniu. With his accumulated experience, he judged that the enemy's
The attack would not be too strong. He could just distract himself and add some manpower to key parts of the city wall. He pointed with the tip of his knife to the south-central section of the city wall and several battlements near the corners. "There, next to Governor Li."
, and Lieutenant Sun who is in charge of the area, they all added a team and told Qin Canjun to pick the ones with strong bodies and bones to go up first!"
"Yes!" Zhou Daniu stood in awe with his fists clasped, then turned around and ran towards the long rope tied to the inside of the enemy building. He had climbed up and down from here three times for a whole day, and his hands and feet could no longer feel anything. After a few tightenings, he fell down.
When he got to the ground, he pushed his legs hard and ran like a wild horse towards the residence of the Tibetan soldiers.
As soon as the brothers of the reserve team who were on standby in the residence below the city saw Zhou Daniu, they immediately gathered around him and asked, "How is it?" "Have the enemy retreated?" "How is General Li's injury?" Everyone ignored Qin Gang's face, who joined the army.
Asking questions
"General Li's order!" Zhou Daniu held his knees with his left hand, pointed with his right hand at the west wall of Liyang where the shouts of killing were heard, and breathlessly issued the order, "Take the three strongest teams to the enemy tower, take advantage of the moment, and take the rope ladder.
Climb up to the city wall and recruit three more brothers: Captain Li Anyuan, Lieutenant Sun Xiang, and Captain Zhang Jiang are in charge of that section. Each of them should fill up a team and go up there, the strongest!"
The reserve team took action quickly. After a few breaths, more than 300 skilled players walked out of the residence and followed Li Xu's general order and climbed up the city wall where manpower support was most needed. When they rushed to the designated location along the long ropes and horse paths,
This round of killing was coming to an end, and the rebels, whose morale was greatly reduced, were driven away by the brothers who defended the city without even holding on for half a stick of incense. Li Mi, who was so angry, naturally sent out archers to retaliate, but the archers had been busy for nearly four hours.
I also lost my energy, and the density and strength of the arrows were greatly weakened.
Li Mi called Jin and withdrew everyone except the shield bearers and archers who were covering the formation to the city wall. The defenders, led by Li Anyuan, Yu Wenshi and two others, gave out cheers with ulterior motives.
"Oh - oh - oh, retreat. If you don't leave, you won't have a chance!"
"Let's go, brothers, only arrest the mastermind, and never ask questions about the association!"
The cheers on the top of the city got louder and louder, which made the attackers very angry. After a while, several low-level generals in the rebel army who were disadvantaged in the battle were dragged out of the team as scapegoats. Some generals were dissatisfied and surrounded Li Mi and shouted loudly.
Called Han Shihe, he folded his arms and watched the fun from a distance, refusing to help the military advisor to relieve the siege. Suddenly, Li Mi grabbed the long stick that was standing on the ground and swept it across, forcing the generals surrounding him back a few steps. Then he flipped his wrist and raised the long stick.
He pointed at the captain closest to him.
Everyone, including the garrison officers standing in the enemy tower watching the excitement, were stunned. No one expected that Li Mi, who was wearing a Confucian robe, could be so good at martial arts. In the astonished eyes of Xuzi and Yuwenshi, the governor
He dodged left and right, but still couldn't avoid Li Mi's penis. Finally he couldn't bear the humiliation. He pressed his chest against the penis and stopped dodging. Li Mi seemed to have asked something, and the lieutenant kept shaking his head. Li Mi asked again, then,
The people were still shaking their heads. Suddenly, the rebel soldiers retreated one after another. Li Mi used his long spear to pick up the lieutenant who dared to question him and threw him far away to the battlefield.
"Hoola!" Dozens of generals surrounded him. Then, dozens of generals rushed out from behind Li Mi. The two sides confronted each other, shouting and tense. For a long time, they didn't even realize that someone on the wall was watching a joke.
Intermittent laughter resounded from the city walls. Regardless of the veterans who had participated in the Liaodong Campaign or the new recruits who had just been coerced into joining the army, everyone had contempt for the rebels. After nearly a day of hard fighting, the relationship between the new recruits and the veterans quickly heated up.
, under the pressure of the rebels, they quickly recognized each other's identity as family members. Now that they saw the rebels making a fool of themselves, their confidence suddenly increased.
Han Shihe finally couldn't bear it any longer and came over, shouting loudly. Both sides of the conflict backed away angrily. Several scapegoats who were tied to the outside of the team also escaped death. Li Mi and Han Shihe started arguing again. After a while, Li Mi inserted the long stick into the soil again.
, walked to the central army and personally beat the war drum.
"Gululu--" The sound of war drums was once again aroused by the shrill sound of horns, which was like the cry of a dying beast.
Han Shihe got on his horse, and with the support of his guards, he ran towards Liyang City. He shouted while shouting, and his armor was illuminated by the setting sun, shining like a god.
Tens of thousands of rebel soldiers followed Han Shihe's horses, setting off a wave of people. The peak pointed at Li Yang.
"Gululu--" The war drums beat continuously. Another team separated from the crowd and rushed towards the Yuliang Avenue. At the front were a dozen or so remaining armored soldiers. Behind them were a dozen strong men carrying the armored soldiers.
Behind several long wooden poles, there are about three hundred guys with different weapons and armors. Each one is tall and has a murderous look on his face. Then, there are thousands of warriors without armor and wearing blue cloth-covered heads.
neat, firm eyes
"This is Li Mi's blood!" Yuwen Shizhi slowly covered the smoke and dust of the Weirang Road with his fingers and whispered. In that moment, there was a trace of nervousness in his words.
"Let the archers prepare!" Li Xu responded with an order. He grabbed the bow at his feet again and put the arrow on the bow arm. He saw two more acquaintances at the end of the enemy team that he least wanted to see.
, two enemy generals who commanded soldiers to attack the city.
One of them has a very ordinary figure and looks like a charlatan, but instead of holding a tiger stick in his hand, he holds a thick-backed long-handled broadsword (Note 1). The other one looks like a salesman, with a philistine look on his face.
Note 1: "Tiger support" is a sign held by medical practitioners in the old days. It is also called "string bell". Legend has it that it was invented by Sun Simiao, the king of medicine. It actually appeared earlier than the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
