It has to be said that Li Shushi did underestimate the resilience of the grassland peoples.
The reason why Shi Kele withdrew his troops early yesterday was not only because of Shi Le's disastrous defeat, but also because of the shining walls of Lishi City. This was a problem for the Jie people who were always accustomed to climbing the uneven rammed earth walls as their means of attack.
It is definitely a huge difficulty. If you are not prepared, you are likely to lose a large number of soldiers due to the lack of siege means.
Originally, Shi Kele planned to learn the habits of the Han people and make some long ladders, but Li Shushi's trebuchet made him very afraid. After all, although that kind of thing is now loaded with shotguns, it was originally used to launch large stone bullets. That kind of thing
After hitting the ladder, Shi Kele felt his scalp numb just thinking about it, so the idea just ran through his mind before he decided to give up.
So he waited patiently for another day.
When they attacked the city today, the Jie soldiers began their countermeasures under the cover of the bows and arrows of their comrades behind them.
So, an hour after the Jie people rushed to the bottom of the city, some of them, who were quite good at climbing walls, began to climb to the top of the city. Although the soldiers behind Peng Pai soon took advantage of the gap that the other party had just climbed to the top of the city,
But this was enough to attract the attention of the generals who defended the city. Gao Shun, who was personally taking command at the top of the city, immediately sent people to investigate.
The results of the investigation surprised Li Shushi. The Jie people were able to successfully climb to the top of the city from the slippery ice.
"I'm afraid it's because we didn't continue to reinforce the ice wall with water after pouring it. As a result, although the temperature has been low these past few days, the sun has not been blocked during the day, so the ice layer may not be as strong as we thought, so the ice wall is not as strong as we thought.
People can take advantage of this opportunity. Although the Jie people lack iron tools, I think it should be no problem to make a few chisels for opening roads."
Cheng Yu saw Li Shushi with a puzzled face and had to speak out his guess. For such an explanation, Li Shushi could only make a helpless expression. After all, it is still difficult to get water in winter, and it suddenly
Withdrawing the garrison outside the city into the city, such population changes will inevitably have a considerable impact on the distribution of supplies within the city.
As for Jia Xu, he hoped that the Jie people would be able to attack the city. Otherwise, this battle would be too boring, and at the same time, it would lose the value of training troops as expected before - after all, the Xianbei people were not only in terms of the number of cannon fodder but also the ability to attack the city.
Number of high-end combat troops
Shangdu is far superior to the Jie people, and if the weather gets warmer by then, it’s hard to say whether Li Shushi’s little tricks can be used. Therefore, the melee troops must be the main force in that battle, but the current troops obviously cannot bear that kind of
Intense fighting.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter if the Jie people climb up. There are only a few roads they can open up in such a short period of time. We can gradually adapt to the enemy's attack. It's not a bad thing for us. You
Tell me what I said is right, Wen He."
"My lord, your words are not bad. However, the intensity of the battle may become more and more intense, so the generals must be prepared."
Jia Xu still had that calm expression, and it was obvious that the current situation was basically within his expectation.
After hearing Jia Xu's words, Li Shushi, who had been hiding in a safe place behind for a while after Peng Pai stood up, no longer hid, and completely handed over the decision-making power of commanding the city to Gao Shun and Cheng Yu, taking Su Xiaoluo with him.
Li, the two guard captains and their own guards rushed to the city wall and began to fight fiercely with the Jie people who rushed to the top of the city.
The first Jieren who died in the hands of Li Shushi was really unjust. Just as his hand reached the slippery city wall, Li Shushi cut off his finger with the Heavenly Sword that was comparable to a door panel. As a result, Li Shushi only heard a sound
After a long scream, the owner of the finger disappeared on top of the city. The piercing scream made
Li Shushi trembled in his heart, but soon recovered and began to continue looking for other Jie people who showed up on the city wall. But soon, Li Shushi, who had a bad taste, discovered the fun of smashing his fingers with the "door panel" and fell in love with it.
He made a sneak attack and killed five or six Jie people who came up like this.
Under his leadership, in addition to Su Xiaoluoli, who acted as a doctor, and the two guards who played live darts with stones and halberds, other guards also started the finger chopping movement. Because they could climb the "ice road" on the city wall and
Not much, so for a while because of Li
The addition of Shushi gave the Jie people no chance to board the city. Even those Jie people who were smashed down became the "weapons" of the defenders. If the Jie people under the city could not escape in time, it would be very likely to cause damage.
The result of "one corpse, two lives".
But the Jie people are not all fools. They are also looking for various ways to break through to the top of the city. Climbing up under the battlements will face the big rocks and rocks thrown by the defenders.
It's boiling oil. There are very few people going up from there.
Rushed. Many Jie people began to choose a slightly circuitous route. They found the gap between the two battlements and climbed up from this place. Although it was a little higher than the battlements, there were fewer direct faces.
threaten.
Perhaps the "notoriety" of Li Shushi and others chopping off their fingers at the top of the city has spread to the bottom of the city, so when the Jie people who climb the city are about to reach the top of the city, they will try their best to rush upward or diagonally upward. Through this kind of
Ways to avoid the nightmare of chopping your hands.
It's just that he had a good plan, and I had a wall ladder. Li Shushi, who discovered that the Jie people adopted a new fighting method, immediately took advantage of their habit and slashed people directly in the air. Of course, if there is a person standing next to him in this way,
The time traveler would definitely complain loudly: "Are you hacking people or playing baseball?"
Yes, Li Shushi said that he should find some happy things to adjust his mood in the cruel war. Anyway, as the boss, he has a group of younger brothers to block the sword for him, and there is also a powerful nanny Su Xiaololi behind him.
So just like several caravan trips, no one in Li Shushi's personal bodyguard team has died in battle so far, and Su Xiaololi is indispensable.
Of course, Li Shushi's side wasn't the most eye-catching. The most stunned soldiers were the soldiers holding Peng Pai. Regarding the Jie people's jumping method of climbing the city, they all almost subconsciously pushed Peng Pai diagonally upward.
, with a "Li's Heavy Equipment Olive"
The standard shield defensive action in "Rugby Football" pushed the opponent away. The skillful movements and quick reactions made Dianwei children's shoes who were rampant in the entire rugby field feel a little cold between their legs, that is, a
It feels like a slight pain in the balls.
But this situation changed as the Jie people continued to invest in fresh troops and even ordinary herdsmen and women. After all, there were still too many Jie people, and this time the siege seemed to be very determined, so the investment
There are a lot of troops, and as time goes by, there are more and more roads on the city wall that can be controlled by the opponent, which finally gives the Jie people a place to put their numerical advantage to use.
Slowly, more and more people climbed up the city wall, almost to the point where they could no longer be chopped down. And the most troublesome thing was that several Jie people had already taken advantage of the opportunity when their companions were attacked by Xihe County soldiers to rush up.
City head.
This result directly unleashed the fighting power of the Jie people who had been unable to exert their individual advantages due to the siege of the city. They took the opportunity to cut down many soldiers holding Peng Pai or spears, and the originally tightly guarded area was completely released.
Several large and small gaps were opened in the Lishi City wall. As a result, the war entered the most brutal hand-to-hand battle at the city head.
Fortunately, the weapons of the Jie people are really not flattering, and they are mostly made of wood. They often have the top of the wood sharpened to use as spears, or simply a big thick and long wooden stick, which is really not good.
I don't know how they climbed to the top of the city with such cumbersome and heavy weapons. However, this also shows that they have very few iron weapons.
In addition, it can be seen that they are all hunters or herdsmen. The clothes they wear are either animal skins or sheepskins, and they are all worn backwards, with all their long hair exposed, which looks very attractive. But let
What Li Shushi didn't expect was that this
The wearing method actually has another effect. Due to the cushioning and deflection effects of the thick, smooth and shiny fur, the lethality of cutting with a knife is often not great, and it is almost impossible to cut through the outer layer of leather clothing, and a point impact
The force obviously cannot cause fatal damage.
This way of dressing made Li Shushi suddenly think of many Tibetans who seemed to be wearing this way during the Japanese rebellion in his previous life. This gave the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army a headache, because unless they were shot with bullets or stabbed with bayonets, other knives could only be used to chop.
It's almost impossible to cut in. Perhaps this was also a headache that the Huns and Mongols gave Europeans back then.
Although the Xihe County soldiers who did not have much experience in fighting against the Hu people were a little confused for a while, it was not difficult for Gao Shun, Qu Yi and others who had rich experience in fighting the enemy. Since cutting the area protected by the leather clothes had no effect,
Then we still have a lot of tricks. If we can't cut him to pieces, we can chop off his head, chop off his neck, or use the sword as the tip of a spear to stab him straight.
There are also guys like Zhao Yun who are good at using their brains. Although they cannot fully display their strength because they are light cavalry without riding horses, they also organize soldiers with spears to gather together and launch small gun formations against places where there are more enemies.
They cooperate with each other to effectively kill the enemy. And because they can cause more local attacks, the casualties are not high.
And Li Shushi also relied on the protection of Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others to start a battle with the Jie people who climbed to the top of the city to hone his fighting skills. And because he secretly changed himself into dragon scale armor, Li Shushi believed that with the help of
With the combination of his Dragon Scale Armor + Taiping Essential Technique and the help of several powerful bodyguards, his life is still very safe.
You must know that the function of the dragon scale armor is to exchange MP for HP loss. No matter how great the damage is, as long as there is still MP on the body, it is absolutely foolproof, just like the egg shell of the Western Fantasy Mage.
Therefore, you can often see such a scene: a Jie man just fell in front of Li Shushi, and felt a bad wind blowing behind him. Li Shushi had to duck down quickly, and heard a "woo" and a strong wind.
It blew over his head. Li Shushi
He quickly turned around and saw a Jie man who looked as strong as a bear standing right behind him. The Jie man was holding a very huge wooden stick in his hand. The head of the stick was gnarled and bleeding.
It seemed that someone had already folded it in his hand just now.
The biggest weakness of long weapons is that you must not let the enemy get close to your body in close combat. Li Shushi, who was holding the Heavenly Sword in his hand, knew this very well. He immediately stood up and rushed towards the Jie warrior. The Jie man seemed to be a master too.
One look at Li Shushi's posture and knew what he was going to do. He actually made another sweeping move and immediately forced Li Shushi, who was out of strength, to retreat.
Li Shushi held the "door panel" and bowed, preparing to look for an opportunity to attack again. Suddenly, he felt a red light flash in front of his eyes, and the Jie man's head flew up, and the fiery red blood spurted out under the afterglow of the setting sun, showing off a dazzling brilliance.
It was all over Li Shushi. And the bear-like body fell down, revealing the figure of Xu Chu.
Yes, this method of using Li Shushi as bait and giving him enough opportunities to practice his skills made Li Shushi and his guards the biggest meat grinder on the city wall, and no Jie people could survive wherever they passed.
And these are just a microcosm of the battle at the top of the city. A steady stream of Jie soldiers and even women rushed to the top of the city to fight fiercely with their enemies. Now the entire city top is filled with a sticky smell.
The feeling is overwhelming, and limbs and arms are everywhere. This is a cruel war...
