"Straight ahead, one hundred and twenty steps, release the arrow!"

"Whoosh-"

On the South Street, more than 100 rebel crossbowmen lined up neatly, and across the line of their own infantry, they launched a salvo at the position of the Kunyang pawns on the opposite side.

Qu general Cao Wu stood in front of the position, staring ahead, watching the group of Kunyang soldiers on the opposite side raise their shields unhurriedly to block the invading rain of arrows.

"Kunyang people are getting more and more experienced......

Cao Wu thought worriedly.

In his impression, the Kunyang pawns were very weak at the beginning, except for the three thousand Nanyang troops, there were only about a thousand black turban pawns who were strong and could take charge on their own.

But now? Even the guys in the yellow scarves were able to withstand the onslaught of his righteous soldiers.

These people wearing yellow turbans, that's just Kunyang's militia!

Cao Wu had a feeling that his righteous soldiers were constantly dying, while the other party's militia was constantly getting stronger.

In the long run...... Cao Wu didn't dare to imagine it anymore.

"Qu Jiang, do you want to attack again?" Or an uncle asked Cao Wu.

Cao Wu looked at the Kunyang pawn positions on the opposite side, which were only ten zhang apart, and then turned his head to look at the wounded and tired soldiers around him, and thought, "Wait...... Zhou Hou and Wang Mao took down the buildings on both sides. ”

As he spoke, his gaze turned to the buildings lining the streets.

After breaking through the two earthen walls of Kunyang on the opposite side, Cao Wu gradually summed up some experience in street fighting.

One of the key points is that when the commanding heights are still in the hands of the enemy, try not to take a strong attack.

And this 'commanding height' here refers to the buildings on both sides of the street.

It is no exaggeration to say that the group of Kunyang bastards who fired arrows in the buildings on both sides of the street, the damage they caused was much more than the group of Kunyang bastards under Ju Sheng on the opposite side, because it was difficult for his righteous soldiers to prevent attacks from both sides when they attacked forward, especially when the other party was still condescending.

At the same time, only ten zhang away from Cao Wu, Ju Sheng was crouching behind the earthen wall, holding his shield and peeking at the opposite side.

Cao Wu's pawns, Ju Sheng didn't care very much.

Because the attack and defense throughout the day has fully demonstrated that a certain black tiger thief leader is correct in his guess: in such a narrow terrain, they can indeed resist several times or even ten times the rebels with a small number of troops.

At this moment, the only thing that worried Ju Sheng was the 'battlefield' in the buildings on both sides of the street, and the other was the crossbowman on the opposite side.

"The Righteous Master is starting to use the crossbowmen in small groups, which will become a great threat."

Similar to Cao Wu, after nearly a day of attack and defense, Ju Sheng gradually found some experience in street fighting.

That's right, now Ju Sheng, who is on the Kunyang side, actually doesn't know how to fight in the streets, and all the arrangements he made today were instructed by a certain black tiger thief leader.

But even so, Ju Sheng still lost two lines of defense and was forced to retreat nearly twenty zhang.

Fortunately, there were more than a dozen lines of defense behind him, and fortunately, instead of blaming him, Zhou Hu sent someone to praise him.

『…… Victory or defeat on the main street depends largely on the battlefield in the buildings on both sides."

Like Cao Wu, Ju Sheng also keenly grasped this point.

Unfortunately, it was difficult for him to help his own soldiers who were fighting in the buildings on both sides of the street.

After all, the people who fought there were the elites of the Black Tiger Thieves, and the militia team led by his subordinates was the militia of the Black Tiger Thieves and the Brotherhood, so it would be good to be able to defend the line, and there was really no need to cause trouble for those Black Tiger Thieves elites.

"It's almost night, but don't let me lose another line of defense......

Glancing at the buildings on both sides of the street illuminated by the afterglow of the setting sun, Ju Sheng prayed secretly.

At this time, in a building on both sides of the street, Bai Xu Bai, the wolf governor, led the black tiger thieves under his command, and fought fiercely with the soldiers led by the rebel commander Zhou Hou.

Xu Bai and Zhou Hou can be said to be old acquaintances today, because in this daytime, the two of them fought more than a dozen times, and Zhou Hou stubbornly seized eight or nine buildings from Xu Bai.

Compared with the initial confusion, Zhou Hou gradually mastered the essentials of seizing these buildings: demolition!

Don't think about the stairs or anything, the enemy will tear down the floor slab if he guards the second floor, and the enemy will tear down the wall if he guards the wall, in short, the black turban thief on the opposite side has no cover to hold, as for whether this move will be reprimanded by the above, Zhou Hou is not worried, after all, as long as the frame of the house is still there, to be repaired after repelling the black turban thief, they can still live and spend this winter.

The only problem is that this method is progressing very slowly, and his own casualties are large, which is why Zhou Hou is holding back a fire.

However, Xu Bai's anger on the other side is not small, after all, Xu Bai lost eight or nine buildings in a row, although the retreat was to avoid confrontation with the rebels and reduce his own casualties, but he lost eight or nine buildings in a row, and his face was also gloomy.

After all, he's the Governor of the Brigade!

The biggest official of the brigade wolf is the governor of the hundred!

He didn't want to be ridiculed or ridiculed by Hao Shun, Xu Rao, Le Xing and others.

"I'm going to kill this guy this time!"

With the same thought, Xu Bai and Zhou Hou killed together, and the black tiger thieves and rebels they led also started a melee in this narrow and ruined building.

"Bell!"

"Bang bang!"

I saw that in this narrow room, the knives were shining, and the bottles and cans were all shattered in the melee, leaving fragments everywhere.

Suddenly, a black tiger thief shouted, "Dubai, there are more and more rebels......12

Xu Bai glanced at the melee, and suddenly saw a rebel soldier pouring in from the hole in the wall, he cursed in his heart, and ordered: "Withdraw!" Remove! ”

Under his orders, the Black Tiger Thief fought and withdrew, and finally withdrew from the wall on the other side, through the hole in it, and stepped on the ladder that served as a bridge, and withdrew to another building.

Seeing this, Zhou Hou hurriedly urged the soldiers: "Chase!" Catch up! ”

Hearing Zhou Hou's order, several rebel soldiers followed closely behind the black tiger thief, but what they didn't expect was that after Xu Bai and the others withdrew into the wall hole of the building, several crossbowmen with crossbows suddenly appeared behind the wall hole.

"Whoosh-"

Before the rebel soldiers could react, the crossbowmen pulled the trigger.

But after hearing a few screams, the rebel soldiers standing on the ladder bridge fell in response, and the black tiger thieves on the opposite side also took the opportunity to pull the ladder back, cutting off the way for Zhou Hou and others to pursue.

“……”

Zhou Hou stood in annoyance at the hole in the wall, looking at the opposite side that was only a few feet apart, and watched Xu Bai make a threatening gesture of cutting his throat at him.

"Huh."

Gritting his teeth, he laughed angrily.

At this time, one of his soldiers came to report the casualties: "Uncle, fourteen brothers have died and seven ...... wounded."

Zhou Hou glanced back, glanced at the corpse lying on the floor, and sighed secretly.

Just as he had guessed before, robbing the building with the group of black turban thieves who were familiar with the nearby environment on the opposite side was simply piling up victory with the lives of the soldiers, although his achievements today were really not small, but the price was ......

The price is too heavy, not to mention anything else, just say that the hundred-man team under his command has completely changed twice, so that few of the soldiers standing in front of him at this moment can be named.

After pondering for a moment, Zhou Hou instructed one of the soldiers: "Immediately tell General Cao Qu that we have occupied this building, but the soldiers are very tired and can no longer fight......

"Yes!"

A soldier hurriedly returned the same way, came to the Qu general Cao Wu, and conveyed Zhou Hou's original words.

"Did you take it?"

Cao Wu's spirits were so high that he didn't even care about the 'huge casualties' conveyed by Zhou Hou.

Because Cao Wu has become numb, you must know that in Kunyang City at this moment, there are constantly soldiers of his righteous division dying, although it is only a few or dozens of small injuries, but the problem is that there are many battlefields.

As far as he knew, in the entire south of the city, there were as many as 20 points where they fought with Kunyang, and the total number of casualties could be imagined.

As far as Zhou Hou's loss of more than 200 people today is concerned, it is really not enough for Cao Wu to react.

No, Cao Wu nodded and said: "Go back and tell Zhou Hou, you did a good job, I will allow him to rest on the spot, in addition, I will immediately replenish his lost manpower, tell him to raise enough energy, and continue to fight with the black scarf soldiers tomorrow." ”

Then he turned to the other soldier and said, "Go and urge the king to take the building as soon as possible." ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!" The two heralds responded.

At the same time, Ju Sheng also received a signal from Xu Bai and others, realizing that the buildings on both sides of the front had been occupied by the rebels.

"Ugh."

Sighing helplessly, Ju Sheng ordered in a low voice: "Everyone, withdraw to the next line of defense." ”

In order to avoid being chased and killed by Cao Wu on the opposite side, Ju Sheng was quite cautious, but unfortunately, the retreat of those crossbowmen under his command still attracted Cao Wu's attention.

He immediately ordered: "The Kunyang pawn on the opposite side is going to retreat, kill it!" ”

After a scuffle, Ju Sheng lost seven or eight soldiers and retreated into the next line of defense in disarray.

And Cao Wu was also able to advance ten zhang.

Yes, those who heard it were sad, those who saw it shed tears, and the rebels paid the price of more than a hundred soldiers, just advancing the battle line ten zhang away, and then returning to the situation where they initially confronted Ju Sheng's two armies.

Turning his head to look at the setting sun, Cao Wu refocused his gaze on the Kunyang pawn position on the opposite side, which was ten zhang away.

After staring at him for a few breaths, he gave the order wistfully: "Prepare to defend." ”

Under his orders, his soldiers began to improve the earthen wall, they broke into the buildings on both sides of the street, took out all kinds of miscellaneous materials and filled the ditch on the south side of the earthen wall, and took out some heavy wooden cabinets, stacked them next to the earthen wall as shelters, and changed the line of defense to face the north, facing the Kunyang soldiers who were ten feet away from them.

Why did Cao Wu suddenly switch from offense to defense?

The reason is very simple, because once it is night, the battlefield in Kunyang City will become a completely different battlefield.

"Woo-"

At the moment when the sun went down, a wolf howl sounded somewhere in Kunyang City.

Immediately, wolf howls rang out in all directions to the west of the city.

“……”

Rao is Cao Wu, and he didn't feel vigilant and nervous, and glanced at the nearby buildings and rooftops.

In the county, there are naturally no wolves.

Those artificial wolf howls represent a message.

From now on, it is the home of the Black Tiger Thief Brigade Wolf.
