Chapter 24 Lizhou is in an emergency
The battle between Heggis and the Honglie Empire is to do their best to pour out the nest, Hejis has invested 2 million in the early stage, and the Honglie Army has concentrated the whole country's troops on the border, and the number of warrings between the two sides has reached an alarming 3 million people in the early stage.
In the Gobi War, the Hong Liejun took advantage of the geographical advantage, but in the eyes of Hegis, this loss can almost be ignored, and then the Hong Liejun entered the city to garrison, although to put it bluntly, it was a defeat, but the two sides fought in the frontal battlefield for a short time, and they did not hurt their muscles and bones, just like two billionaires made an appointment to gamble in Las Vegas, and the first time they met, one person threw 20 yuan at the bottom of the pot and broke up, this gamble wants to continue, the main battlefield is nothing more than between attacking and defending the city, So I can understand the intensity of Haggis's attack - the one with more chips in his hand always wants to overwhelm the opponent in momentum, but I was still surprised by such a frequency.
Before I had time to take a sip of a cup of tea, I heard that the war outside the city had started again, so I had no choice but to put down the teacup and say to the visitor: "You go first, I'll come later." ”
At this moment, my sword qi has retreated, even if I go to the city, it will not help Hong Liejun's surname, but I know that the soldiers in the city may need more than a sword god with superior combat power, and skilled acrobats will tie a safety rope around their waists when performing in the air, although they don't need one in a thousand performances, but without it, the actors will go crazy, and I, I am the rope.
Sure enough, when I landed in the city again, the soldiers who were already tired of fighting were once again full of courage, and although the attack of Hagis was fierce, it was always like a pile of flames barely burning in the wetland, and it was crushed and beaten badly. Pu Qixiong is right, the siege war is actually fought by the hearts of the people, as long as you can find the weak point of a city, then you will get twice the result with half the effort, this weak point is not that the west wall is a little shorter and thinner than the east wall, but the state of the defenders on the city. The side on the city will always have the advantage, but most of the time the advantages are disadvantages, when the first soldier of the attacking side rushes to the head of the city, then the mentality of the defenders will change - in such a favorable terrain are rushed up by the other side, are we going to lose? Therefore, the defending army is almost all focused on how to block the enemy under the city, once the attacking soldiers rush to the city to start a fierce battle, then the protective role of a city wall is also ignored, which is often the key to success, as long as one step forward is equal to the success of the city, the attacker will never let go of this opportunity.
Although I didn't have to do anything but wander back and forth at the head of the city, my participation in the battle undoubtedly boosted morale, making the soldiers think that the city was safe no matter what, because with such blind optimism, Fuzhou City is as impregnable as a copper wall, we are not short of soldiers and materials, 150,000 people are stationed here, as long as confidence is not lost, the only possibility of Hegis breaking the city is to knock down the city wall or crash open the city gate, and the probability of that is very small!
After an hour of fierce fighting, Haggis's attack gradually weakened, and finally left thousands of corpses behind and died down.
The equally exhausted soldiers of the Hung Lie rested their crooked armor, transported the wounded, replenished their feathered arrows, and did not have the energy to cheer anymore, but every time I walked past them, everyone would cast respectful glances at me.
I glanced down at the city, not bothering to think about the purpose of the enemy's rash attack, and it only took two days for Hagis to transform me from a fuss novice to a nervous Reaper, but at a cost to both sides...... This lasted for another two days, and the soldiers of the Honglie Empire seemed to be accustomed to the other side's rambling attacks, and I only made one move in two days, and that was because Hegis dispatched a death squad of 2,000 people, and they did not have any protection, pushing a huge block towards the gate of Fuzhou City, and the pulley was tied to a giant tree that could not be hugged by four people, and these people were divided into two teams and lined up behind the pulley, and then pushed one back and ran through the behemoth, straight stakes, sharpened tops, coupled with the circle formed by these two teams, made the thing look both offensive and insulting, and I decisively took action to remove its eunuch...... During this time, the battle reports of Xinzhou also came from time to time, and Shi Cundao was not idle when we were busy defending the city, and the frequency of the attack of Yutai Lang was surprisingly consistent with that of Wu Sizhong, I couldn't get out of the way to help Xinzhou again, what makes me strange is that there has been no news from Lizhou, maybe because most of Qin Yiwu's troops are cavalry, so they are not good at attacking the city?
But early on the third day, my conjecture was broken, and a dusty signal soldier brought me a message from Shi Dong from Lizhou, with only four words: Lizhou is in a hurry!
At that time, Wu Sizhong's troops were launching the nth attack on Fuzhou City, and I stood on the top of the city to watch the battle, and I handed a bowl of water to the messenger, telling him not to worry, while asking: "My third uncle can't stand it so quickly?" ”
The man drank a big sip of water, shook his head and said: "Don't complain about General Shi, he and the brothers have done their best, General Shi wants you to rush to Lizhou as soon as possible, otherwise the people of the whole city will suffer, this is his original words." ”
I looked at the enemy army under the city and looked at Pu Qixiong, I was very embarrassed, if I would go away, it would definitely have a negative effect on morale, in case Fuzhou lost, wouldn't it be a loss of one thing?
Pu Qixiong saw my concerns and said to me, "Di Zai, you can go, there is an old man here staring at the drying in a short time, and there will be no leakage." ”
The soldier who sent the letter also said: "General Sword God, hurry up, General Shi didn't want to ask you for help until he had to, once the city of Lizhou is broken, we soldiers can still retreat, and the people in the city will be finished!" ”
I didn't dare to hesitate any longer, found a secluded corner and drummed out the sword qi and flew to the north of Lizhou City, passing through Shinshu in the middle, the two armies were fighting, I lowered my body and threw the two ladders that had just been erected on the head of the city and the ladders in my hands, and continued to ...... north without stopping When the city wall of Lizhou City appeared in front of me, I felt very surprised, the signal soldier kept saying that Lizhou was in an emergency, but at a glance, there was no enemy army under Lizhou City, or rather, Hegis had not yet begun to attack, less than 200 meters away from the city gate, Qin Yiwu's cavalry corps was neatly lined up in several phalanxes, and no one stepped forward to knock on the city.
I was so surprised that I couldn't help but look closer, and it didn't matter what I saw, and I was shocked into a cold sweat.
The reason why Haggis didn't attack was because he was about to win! Although there are no of them under the city, but the fighting on the city wall is shocking, about 200 people in special uniforms are holding various weapons like tigers entering the flock to drive and slaughter the defenders, these people are not wearing the military uniform of Hegis, but the martial arts are all strong, each of them has at least dozens of corpses of Hong martyrs around them, although there are many defenders in the city, but the terrain is too narrow to rescue each other, these masters are one as ten, with endless killing opportunities, every knife and every sword are smeared with the shadow of death. At the foot of the city, there are a bunch of ropes hanging down, and there are some masters who are going up along the ropes, and their bodies are neat, only a few of them climb up to the head of the city, and join the team in front of the head, obviously these people are jumping up by ropes, and several of them don't even use ropes, and the 10-meter-high wall is like a low stool mound in their eyes, and the legs are crossed, which shows that at least several of these masters are swordsmen!
What surprised me the most was not this, but the row of archers in front of the Heggis army, some of these people wore military uniforms and some did not wear, there were about four or five hundred people, each with a giant iron-tire bow, standing 200 meters away from the head of the city and not stopping to draw the bow and release arrows, such a long distance, and shooting from the back, it is difficult to achieve with ordinary bows on the mainland, but the bows and arrows used by these people are all special, and the second is very powerful, and the arrows are not missing 200 steps away, both accurate and strong, and all the Hong martyrs in the city who show their heads are all shot, The masters of Hegis fought with the defenders face to face, and the arrows under the city were able to open the way and cover without mistake, one or two such shooters were nothing, and it was rare that Qin Yiwu actually had a battalion under him!
It is conceivable that the defenders of Lizhou City have been dwarfed by the more than 200 masters, and they have to guard against the arrows shot by Leng Buding, the situation is gradually deteriorating, several of the masters of Hegis have already killed at the staircase, their intentions are obvious, the people in the city are responsible for putting the drawbridge, killing the city gate under the city, as long as the city gate is opened, Qin Yiwu's cavalry will rush in, and Lizhou will be broken!
I was full of anxiety, like a gust of wind swept towards the city, a fierce little soldier pointed to the sky in surprise and said: "Look, the sword ......" Speaking of this, his expression suddenly twitched, a long sword pierced from the back of his head, the tip of the sword came out of his cheek, seeing that he was no more than 18 years old, he was still a child, just because he found me, he forgot to pay attention in the excitement, and the god word behind him was never able to be spoken.
My heart ached, and I almost didn't think about slapping the person behind the soldier who was plotting against him, this person was not very proud after the successful sneak attack, obviously he had long been accustomed to killing and snatching other people's lives, he drew his long sword and kicked the corpse of the soldier down, a pair of eyes wandered around coldly, it was because he had a premonition of danger - the sword qi from me, and the murderous energy! But by the time he realized this, it was too late, and when he looked up, nothing but a flash of fear flashed in his eyes, and then he turned into a meat mound.
Xiaoxiaohua's official name was set on the number of Zhang, which was given to him by his mother, his mother said that this word color is excellent, both rice and women, as well as Wencai, I didn't agree at first, because I wanted to go to the household registration so I had to start from, and then Xiaoxiaohua's nickname was given by his grandmother, called Shuai Shuai, I think it's a little dirty, but the old man looks at the child very hard, embarrassed not to let her into a share, the result is: I have no equity in the name, so I had to privately give Zhang Shu a lot of ugly nicknames to vent his anger, there are stinky beans, Zhang Xiaofart, Dou Ermao and so on......
