According to the information given by Nie Zifeng before, there are more than a dozen tomb robber gangs forming the alliance army this time, with a number of more than 2,000. Although there are a lot of rabble among them, there are also some masters whose power cannot be underestimated; and we, Doumen,
Besides, plus the new ones who joined today, the number of people is less than four to five hundred, including some wounded people.
Four to five hundred versus nearly two thousand, with such a huge gap in numbers, the balance of victory had already tilted towards the other side, but I still didn't give up. I still had a trump card in my hand that was useless.
As the night grew darker, the shouts of killing coming from not far ahead gradually subsided, and instead, Zhao Heng and the others began to retreat back to Doucheng.
I stood on the city wall, with Wu Dayong and others beside me who had been preparing for a long time.
We didn't have any weapons of mass destruction, so we simply used primitive weapons. We prepared a lot of rolling logs on the walls of the fighting city and waited for those people to come up.
"Open the city gate!" I shouted towards Lou Yulan below.
As soon as I finished speaking, Lou Yulan, shirtless, pushed open the lead-filled iron door alone. Don't look at this kid's usual grin, but his strength is really no less than that. Niu Jianguo may not have such strength.
strength.
The iron door opened, and Zhao Heng led a group of people in, followed closely by Qin Shisan and Qin Shisi. They completed the previously arranged tasks, but I also found that Qin Shishi was obviously injured, his face was pale, and his body was covered with blood.
The clothes were stained with blood.
Qin Shishi's face was calm. After going up the city wall, I immediately asked Bai Yu to bandage his wound. I found that his wound was shocking. If he hadn't been in good health, he probably wouldn't have been able to come back.
"Shopkeeper, I didn't fight well. Twenty-three brothers didn't come back. I just let the shopkeeper do what he did." Qin Shisan said.
"No, it's my problem. Even if you have to punish me, you will punish me." Qin Shishi also said.
I raised my eyebrows and said, "I don't blame you. How could you be so seriously injured, Fourteenth?"
"My skills are inferior to those of others, so injuries are inevitable." Qin Shishi laughed at himself.
I shook my head, thinking that it was impossible for Qin Shishi to be unable to defeat him. I knew that his skills were among the best in the entire Doumen.
"Shut up!" Qin Shishi shouted coldly, and then said to me: "My injury is fine, the shopkeeper doesn't need to worry."
After saying this, Qin Shisi limped to the side. I quickly glanced at Bai Yu and asked her to take care of Qin Shisi.
This is the first time I heard that Qin Shishi had such an experience. I know about Xunlongmen, a quite large tomb-robber gang. As for He Bailong, he has been famous for a long time.
"Thirteen, I will leave the brothers in the escort to you. You go down and rest. Wu Dayong, take your people and prepare to fight."
The escort lost more than twenty brothers in the first round of fighting. As for Zhao Heng, the losses were relatively minor. Now that they have all returned to Doucheng, it is now time for Wu Dayong and his men to take action.
On the wall of Doucheng, Wu Dayong stood ready, with a glint in his eyes. Before joining Doumen, he was also a figure in Pirate County, but after coming to Doumen, he was diligent and never arrogant.
Standing among the crowd, he looked determined.
"Everyone from Yongzitang has opened his eyes for me. Behind us are our injured brothers. Whoever dares to take a step back tonight will have his head chopped off by me!"
Wu Dayong gave a cold shout, and everyone around him suddenly agreed. In the night, the momentum was amazing!
A few seconds later, there was a loud shout of killing coming from under the Doucheng. I looked closely and saw that it was the Allied Army of the tomb robber gang coming up.
"Get ready to roll!" Wu Dayong shouted.
The walls of Doucheng are not high, only about five meters. This temporary earth wall is our biggest support, but even I am not sure how long it can hold us back.
"Master, they are coming..." Lou Yulan, who was responsible for blocking the door, shouted from below.
As soon as Lou Yulan finished speaking, there was a violent crashing sound. It was the Allied Army of the tomb robber gang approaching the city gate. A group of more than a dozen of them were carrying huge logs and crashing into the city gate.
"Let me go!"
i
Wu Dayong's order sounded at the right time, and the Doumen brothers on the city wall dropped the stones in their hands. In the night, screams and wails could be heard endlessly. These rolling stones fell, and many alliance soldiers of the tomb robber gang were smashed to pieces.
, but they also quickly launched a counterattack, and a burst of intensive gunfire suddenly sounded.
"They actually have guns?"
Zhao Heng beside me was surprised. This was supposed to be a battle involving primitive weapons and strength. Unexpectedly, the opponent who had the numerical advantage actually used guns and cannons.
We also have guns, but most of them are scattered old pistols. As for explosives and shells, there is no way to talk about them.
"Damn it, they actually used the guns and guns they used against Zongzi to deal with us, these bastards!"
Zhao Heng yelled, "Yes, we were already at an absolute disadvantage in this battle, and now the other side has used guns and cannons. For the Doumen brothers, this will undoubtedly be a fierce battle."
"They are climbing the wall, they are coming up." Brother You Doumen exclaimed.
Wu Dayong said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, let me hit the stone accurately. Go and get some boiling water quickly. You can also boil oil."
We have no guns or cannons, so we can only use our most primitive methods to deal with them. The city walls are covered with iron hooks. The allied forces of the tomb robber gangs are hitting the city gate while grabbing the iron hooks like ants.
Climb up little by little.
"Zhao Heng, go get some kerosene, the more the better." I ordered.
Zhao Heng immediately took people away to collect kerosene, but the situation of the guards at the city gate was already not good. Lou Yulan and a dozen of the strongest brothers were desperately blocking the gate, but they were blocking it with their bodies.
, but the people outside the door used huge wood. Every time they hit, Doumen's brothers would be shaken by the huge impact and vomit blood, but even so, no one took a step back.
As for the city wall, gunshots were fired one after another. Although the night enveloped everyone, once any of the brothers on the city wall popped up, a dense barrage of bullets was waiting for them. I saw with my own eyes several Doumen brothers. In order to kill them,
A rolling stone was thrown, and as soon as the stone fell, almost instantly, their bodies were smashed into sieves.
Wu Dayong was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He also couldn't understand how the allied army of the tomb-robber gangs below obtained such a large number of firearms and ammunition, a forbidden weapon.
Zhao Heng collected a small amount of old-fashioned pistols and even shotguns, but the quantity was too small and it was of no use at all.
"Shopkeeper, the kerosene is here."
Several Doumen brothers were about to carry the kerosene up to the city gate, but a bullet hit them, and all four or five people fell in a pool of blood. Seeing this, the other Doumen brothers wanted to go over and pick up the kerosene, but as soon as they showed up,
, bullets were inevitably fired, and within a short time, more than a dozen brothers had been injured or killed.
The kerosene is leaking on the city wall. If this continues and a spark appears, it will be us who will be burned.
My eyes were bloodshot and I shouted, "Zhao Heng, follow me."
I stepped forward in person, followed closely by Zhao Heng. The two of us first crawled close to the ground, and then each picked up a bucket of kerosene. Amidst the bullets flying past our heads and ears, we grabbed the kerosene and grabbed it.
Beside the city wall.
"Shopkeeper, Zhao Heng, continue."
Wu Dayong grabbed two torches and threw them over. Zhao Heng and I each grabbed one and ignited the kerosene in an instant. I saw a large bucket of kerosene flowing down the city wall, igniting a raging fire.
The Union troops who were climbing the city wall were burned to death.
