Anyone who has been on the battlefield or attacked a city knows that it is not easy to defend a city, but it is even more difficult to attack a city. Unless the disparity between the two sides is huge, it is completely unrealistic for the attacking party to quickly attack the city, and no matter when, it wants to
Besieging a city requires paying a huge price.
The rebels only have more than 20,000 troops, and the disparity in strength between the two sides is not huge. It is almost impossible to break through the city. Their only advantage is the experts provided by the Sky Castle, so when they attack the city, all the forwards are from the Sky Castle.
people.
When attacking the city, the advantage of these people came to light. Under the cover of ordinary soldiers, these people rushed to the city wall immediately. Some of them were extremely skillful and even stepped directly on the city wall and rushed up...
Although these people may not be able to break the city, and martial arts masters will not be arrogant for long in front of a large army, the battle damage will be serious, which the Qing king does not want to see.
"It's your turn to take action." King Qing said to a row of men in black behind him.
After spending a lot of money, they naturally want to exploit him as much as they can. When he is not taking action, they serve as bodyguards for him. When there is a fight, these people are the first to fight. To follow Feng Qingchen's words, the Qing King is using the Killer Alliance as mercenaries.
It is the rule to kill with money. When the killers heard what King Qing said, they did not hesitate for a moment. The flying tiger claws provided by Zuoan shot out immediately. Six black shadows suddenly flew down from the top of the city and fell on the wall, letting the attackers
People have to stop.
"You guys, go and deal with these people." Upon seeing this, the masters of Sky Castle immediately directed their firepower at the six killers, preparing to deal with these six people first.
Without saying a word, the killers swung out the long knives in their hands immediately, and struck the opponent's outstretched hand with one strike.
Broken palms and blood flew out at the same time...
The first key to killing people is not to talk nonsense with the target. Rather than talking, they are more willing to do it directly. They are killers and not charlatans, so there is no need to leave a name.
"Who are these people? They are deadly with swords. They are not afraid of death." Although there are not many killers, they can't stop them from being ruthless. When the people in Tianqiong Castle were screaming, they had already taken a position and blocked their way.
die.
"Looks like a killer." The people in the Sky Castle are also people in the world, so they still have some experience.
"Why would a killer work for the court? Killer never accepts requests from court officials." The people in the Sky Castle were puzzled. The killers who had been silent finally spoke their first words: "The scum of the world.
, the court's running dog, everyone can find it and kill it."
Although there are few words, the meaning is very obvious. The people in Tianqiong Castle almost jumped up. His uncle, you are obviously ordered by the court to kill us, why do you call us the lackeys of the court, but...
They didn't have time to talk, and the gleaming sword came right in front of them again.
There were people from the Killer Alliance holding back the people from Sky Castle, and the rebels were unable to attack for a moment. The ladder to the city was cut down as soon as it was hung up. The giant tree that hit the city gate was not even carried to the city gate.
People were hit by random arrows...
The defenders of the city took advantage of the geographical location, and the Qing king got the news first and deployed his troops in advance. It was absolutely impossible for the rebels to capture the city in one day.
At this time, there were no thermal weapons and equipment, and there were no airdrop planes. If you wanted to attack the city, you had to use human lives and flesh and blood to climb the city wall...
Wave after wave of people rushed forward, and another wave of people rushed forward, stepping on the corpses of their companions. Some of them were very skilled, and finally climbed up the ladder. When they saw that they were about to reach the top of the city, the defenders lifted the ladder.
The man and the ladder fell straight down, causing his head to explode.
There were also a few who climbed up using ladders and hooks, but were knocked down by a heavy bag of sand. They survived the fall, but were crushed by the straight falling sandbags and were unable to stand up. Not to mention rockets and kerosene.
The lethality...
Sieges have always resulted in heavy casualties, and this time it was especially obvious. Jiangnan City was so well prepared, with arrows, kerosene, and sandbags in abundance, as if they had been informed in advance.
In fact, the King of Jiangnan and the King of Qing did know about it in advance, otherwise they would not be so calm.
When the rebel leader saw this situation, he wanted to retreat first and then make plans. But if he just retreated, they had no food and grass. How could they let the soldiers fight again?
At this moment, the rebel leader regretted. He didn't regret betraying the King of Qing. His talents and military exploits were not inferior to the King of Qing. If the King of Qing hadn't been from a better background than him, where would it be that yellow-haired boy's turn to be the prince? Otherwise, he
If you betray the King of Qing, you will only be the King of Qing's dog for the rest of your life, and if you perform meritorious service, you will become the King of Qing.
What he regretted was that he insisted on going his own way and used up all the food and grass, cutting off the soldiers' retreat, making it impossible for him to order a retreat, leaving his soldiers and himself with no way out.
"I hope the King of Qing will not come out to ask for surrender." He was really afraid of what would happen. As soon as the rebel leader opened his mouth, the King of Qing walked to the top of the city and said loudly: "Surrender before the opportunity is available. Those who surrender first will not be killed... The first person to surrender will be killed."
, the official is promoted to one level; the second to 1000th person will not be blamed; the 1001st to 2000th person will have a major demerit; the 2001st to 3000th generation will be in military service; the 3001th to 4000th person will be a slave for three generations; the 4001th to 5000th person will be a slave for generations.
.After 5000, no more surrender will be accepted, kill them all!"
Are there levels for surrender?
As soon as the King of Qing said this, everyone was stunned. The rebels who were preparing to attack the city were also stunned. They looked at the city head blankly one by one, thinking that they heard wrongly, but the King of Qing ordered people to repeat it again and again.
Repeat it loudly, and every time it is repeated, a special reminder will be given: "I advise you to surrender as early as possible, the later it will be, the more miserable it will be. Those who want to surrender, put down their weapons, hold their heads with both hands, and squat down along the left city gate.
Take the gate of the city as a line. The first one to surrender will be promoted. The second to a thousand will be forgotten. When surrendering, everyone please line up consciously. If anyone cuts in the line and causes trouble, he will be beaten into a group of 5,000 people and killed!"
"You must surrender as early as possible. There are so many rules for surrender?" Not to mention that the soldiers on the battlefield were confused. Even Yun Xiao and Wang Qi in the rear couldn't help but raise their eyebrows when they heard a louder call to surrender from the front.
ear.
In their whole lives, they have never seen anyone persuade them to surrender like this.
"King Qing's method of persuading surrender is really ingenious." Yun Xiao nodded in praise, his eyes drifting to Feng Qingchen. He always felt that such a weird method was not something that the honest prick of Prince Qing could have come up with. Feng Qingchen was just about the same.
Sure enough, Feng Qingchen did not hide anything and admitted generously: "The number of rebels is small, but it is impossible for them all to surrender. After most of the casualties, if we can recruit 5,000 people to surrender, the rebels will be insignificant."
"In order to get them to voluntarily surrender, we naturally have to give benefits. To become famous, we must surrender as early as possible. Of course, we must surrender as early as possible. The earlier we surrender, the more benefits we will get. Only in this way can we stimulate them to surrender one by one, so as to avoid being robbed of the good thing.
.”
The world loves comparison. If one person surrenders, and those behind see that the other person has taken advantage of it, they will definitely follow suit, for fear that they will be a step too late and the best will be snatched away...
