Chapter 13: The Wolves
If Zhi Yanchong and the others rushed out, it might not be impossible to kill Xiao Tienu, but they didn't do it, Yang Yingqi knew that they were moved by Xiao Tienu's righteousness and courage after seeing Xiao Tienu's courage riding alone, and they all felt pity in their hearts. But after this battle, Xiao Tienu was afraid that he would not dare to attack for a long time - and he was unable to do so.
Pack up the battlefield, it's night. Orihiko said, "Take a rest and leave for the road tomorrow." "Two of the captains left behind have been to Daxianbei Mountain, so although Di Yu is not there, he is not afraid of not having a guide.
I slept until midnight and was suddenly woken up by a few wolf howls. Cao Guangbi said: "Could it be that the wolves are attacking? Several leaders hurriedly climbed to the top of the earthen city wall and looked at it, and they couldn't help but be surprised: under the moonlight, there were indeed wolves coming like a tide.
Yang Yingqi exclaimed: "Doesn't it be said in the popular science books that the wolves are generally about ten? This...... That's hundreds of headsβno! Thousands! β
Yang Kaiyuan said strangely: "Popular science books? What is the book? Why haven't I heard of it? β
Cao Guangbi shouted: "Now is not the time to talk about this!" Go and block the front and back gates! Also, take the torches! Everyone take torches and don't let them get close! β
Fortunately, in the Taihang Mountains, there was a special batch of torches for night walking, basically one or two of the five hundred people. After more than 100 torches were lit around the city, everyone felt a lot more relieved.
Zhi Yanchong suddenly said: "Huh! Look! There's someone in the pack! β
Everyone looked together, and sure enough, they saw wolves surrounding more than 20 people and constantly attacking, and those people gathered back to back, slowly approaching the fire-shining earth city. Getting closer, Zhi Yanchong shouted, "Xiao Tienu! It's him! β
Xiao Tienu was already covered in blood, and the arrow on his left shoulder had been pulled out and wrapped in a cloth belt, but at this time half of his body was dyed red, and he didn't know if it was his own blood, his partner's blood, or the blood of the wolves.
Xiao Tienu and the others had a grudge against Zhe Yanchong and his gang, but when life and death were in place, they naturally leaned over here. Orihiko looked at it for a while and said, "No! They can't resist it, they can't hold it up here. I'm going out to save him, and which of you will go with me? β
Yang Yingqi said: "Wait! This person has come to this point, and it has a lot to do with us. It's okay to save him, but you have to make him promise not to embarrass us in the future. β
Zhi Yan said: "In the face of a group of beasts, the same human beings should naturally watch and help each other, and what conditions should be discussed. β
Yang Yingqi's face turned red, Zhi Yanchong had already rushed out, Cao Guangbi and Ouyang Shi each led a dozen people to follow left and right, rushed into the wolves, and took Xiao Tienu and his gang into the city. As soon as they entered the city, Yang Kaiyuan immediately ordered people to close the door, release arrows, and burn some things that could be ignited and threw them down, forcing the wolves back.
Ouyang Shi looked at Xiao Tienu and said, "What about your horses?" β
Xiao Tienu snorted and didn't answer, and suddenly asked, "Who shot me this evening?" β
Orihiko rushed: "It's me!" β
Xiao Tienu snorted and said, "Good arrow!" And he said, "Why did you save me?" β
Orihiko rushed: "We are human, and there are wolves outside!" You have suffered from wolves, and we will naturally come to the rescue, what is there to say! β
Xiao Tienu said: "Don't forget that we are enemies!" β
"Enemies are also people!" Orihiko rushed: "What's more, how can there be an eternal enemy in this world!" β
Xiao Tienu was thoughtful, and then heard Yang Yingqi shout: "Not good! The wolves are coming! With our manpower, we may not be able to defend this city to the fullest! You'll have to figure it out quickly! β
Ouyang Shi said: "I have a way to delay them." He drove more than twenty horses out, and immediately the mournful roar of horses was heard outside the city.
Xiao Tienu said unhappily: "You guy is not a horse lover!" β
Ouyang Shi said: "Compared with Malai, it is naturally more important to have a small life. β
Yang Yingqi said: "Take advantage of now, hurry up and get on the horse and escape from the West Gate." Don't wait here to cook a good meal for the wolf! β
Zhi Yan Chong said: "This wolf pack is so large, it is unusual. We'll have to find a way to destroy them. Otherwise, even if we escape, the nearby soldiers and civilians will suffer greatly! β
Yang Yingqi said: "The nearby soldiers and civilians are either Khitan or Mongolia, what does it matter to us!" β
Zhi Yanchong frowned and said, "Everyone is human!" That's the relationship! β
Yang Yingqi said: "Even so, but we only have about a hundred people, we can really kill all these wolves, but I am afraid that we will also be greatly damaged." Unless ......"
Orihiko rushed: "Unless what? Do you have any plans again? β
Yang Yingqi said: "Unless you attack with fire!" β
Yang Kaiyuan said: "Fire attack? Fire and water are sharp weapons, but these wolves are scattered outside the city, and it is difficult to kill them all with rockets. β
Yang Yingqi said: "On that day, Zhou Lang burned Chibi, and the first step was to connect Cao Cao's warships, so there was Pang Tong's serial plan......"
Yang Kaiyuan said strangely: "Pang Tong's serial record? β
Yang Yingqi said: "It was Pang Tong who coaxed Cao Cao to connect all the warships. β
Yang Kaiyuan said: "Cao Cao connected the warships, what is the matter with Guan Pangtong?" β
Yang Yingqi was stunned, secretly broke out in a cold sweat, and shouted in his heart: "Oops! Most of this serial plan is made up by "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"! He hurriedly said, "It's my mistake." In short, if Cao Cao did not connect the warships, the fire on the red cliff would not be able to burn clean. So our first step is to gather these wolves. But how do you get together? β
Cao Guangbi groaned: "Bait! β
Yang Yingqi said: "Not bad! It's to use Ouyang's method just now, with bait! Use horses as bait! β
Ouyang Shi said: "What about the fire? β
Yang Yingqi said: "Do you remember the black fire water? β
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and smiled. Xiao Tienu had been watching coldly, and then suddenly said, "I know why I lost to you." β
Orihiko said, "Why? β
Xiao Tienu said: "There are many of you, but I only have one, this is the reason!" β
Zhi Yanchong and the others all knew that there were many people in him, not in terms of the comparison between the number of 500 and 100 thieves, but that there was no one with equal intelligence in the group of thieves who could really help him in decision-making, and even could only drag him back.
Orihiko said: "Let's put aside the win-loss grievances between us for the time being, and now it's important to deal with the wolves." β
At this time, the horses that Ouyang Shi drove out had already been eaten by the wolves, and Yang Yingqi stepped up the arrangement: Ouyang Shi put some more horses out for the wolves to enjoy, delaying the progress of their siege; Cao Guangbi led the people to repel the wolves that rushed up one by one; Yang Kaiyuan led people to pour black fire water on the city walls, roof beams, etc.; Yang Yingqi, Zhang Laoyu and others were busy making some coal ash, seeping black fire water as a trigger for the fire, leading to the Tucheng Gate in the east.
