I don't know how long it took, the surrounding black seemed to have turned into a sticky black substance, which made the people on the city wall feel a little suffocated.
I don't know who it is, but suddenly shouted:
"Look! What is that? ”
The people who were napping just now suddenly woke up and got up one after another to look out.
I saw that in the darkness, some bright light floated in the fluttering light.
Someone swallowed and trembled and said:
"Yes, is it a ghost fire?"
When everyone heard this, they felt that the sticky feeling around them was even stronger, and it seemed to be solidified.
Thorn Shi looked at it and said:
"What a hell of a fire! The Kunyu National Army is here, it's a torch! ”
If everyone looked closely, it wasn't a torch, the ghost fire was blue and white, and it would be warm orange-red.
The feeling of solidification was gone, and they all moved, ready to attack and be attacked.
But, gradually, the people on the city wall were a little confused, it seemed that there were not many torches, didn't they say that there were tens of thousands of people? It feels like there are only about 10,000 people.
Thorn Shi was also very puzzled, turned to look at a few scouts, the scouts didn't have anything to say, they were obviously spying on tens of thousands of people.
The general said to the assassin:
"Could it be a trick to deliberately make us think that there are not many people and want to lure us out of the city? It's night, and we can only judge the number by the torches, but we can't see it really. ”
Suddenly, the scouts also breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed to the general in their hearts.
When the distance was about the same, the general ordered to use rockets to ignite the large bonfire under the city, and a circle of bonfires was instantly lit under the city wall to prevent the Kun Yu national army from touching the city wall while it was dark.
Among the marching Kun Yu national army, Ningxu and Ninghui have long been gone, and the leader is Lei Heng, and the number of troops is also a lot less, and the two people who are responsible for escorting the baggage are only Hou Mo Chen Chong.
When he was about to arrive at the city, Lei Heng ordered to disperse, and the generals led their teams to leave according to what had been agreed before.
The thorn and the general on the city wall, seeing the torches scattered, there were fewer torches left, and then looking at the direction of the scattered torches, the general slapped his thigh:
"They want to besiege the city! Do you want to surround us here? ”
Before the fight started, he died, didn't he increase the morale of the enemy and destroy his own prestige!
Thorn Shi glared at the general:
"There aren't many of them in the first place, and if they are separated like this, each city gate will have fewer troops, and they still want to besiege us?! Although Kun Yuguo is a little stronger, he is so immeasurable, no matter how strong he is, he will lose! It seems that the one who led the troops this time was not a veteran of Kun Yuguo, and he sneered, "This is a novice in our Yinping country!" They look down on us too much! ”
When everyone heard this, and thought about it again, it seemed that this was indeed the case, and they were immediately filled with righteous indignation, and their morale was mobilized.
The general wiped his cold sweat at this time, his gaffe just now almost made a big mistake, and he gratefully glanced at the assassin who glared at him angrily.
Although Thorn Shi said this, he was not at ease at all, the veterans of Kun Yuguo were certainly powerful, and they were all well-known existences, but the newly grown generals were not vegetarians, and they repeatedly pondered in their hearts what they were going to do.
Lei Heng had been waiting for time, and Hou Mo Chen Chong looked at the sky and said to him:
"The appointed time is almost up."
Lei Heng looked up at the sky, and nodded at Mo Chen Chong.
When the time came, Lei Heng gave the order to the heralds, and the fast and passionate sound of the military drum quickly resounded in the sky, and the shouts of killing sounded everywhere outside the city, and the hearts of the soldiers in the city trembled.
Thorn Shi also ordered to prepare to fight back, where can he fight back? The crossbow of the Kun Yu Kingdom has a longer range than the bow and arrow, even if the bow and arrow can be bent, but, if the Kun Yu army does not enter the range, even if the bow and arrow can be X-shot, it is useless, so he has to order to pay attention to protect himself and not expose it to the enemy.
The Kun Yu army did not enter the range of bows and arrows, stood in a safe place, and shot fireballs at the city walls, as was the case at each city gate, and the soldiers were not busy fighting, but were busy fighting fires.
I thought that Kun Yuguo would have to fight hard before it stopped, but after a few waves of fireballs, it was quiet, and everyone looked cautiously outside the city, and the outside of the city returned to the previous blackness, if it weren't for the unextinguished fire on the city wall, and the big bonfire crackling under the city wall, everyone really thought that they had just seen the illusion.
The general wiped his blackened face, this time he had a memory, leaned over to the assassin's side, and asked quietly:
"My lord, what is Kun Yuguo going to do?"
Thorn Shi also hoped that someone would answer his question, but unfortunately, no one knew what Kun Yuguo was going to do.
After waiting for a long time, the capital of Kun Yuguo was quiet, and everyone hurried to sleep.
After dawn, everyone went out to look, only to see that the tents on the opposite side were lined up, and the water around the city could not be drained, and the assassin was glad at this time, and he did not rush out last night because he saw a lack of torches, and if he rushed out last night, then the city was also broken today.
Soldiers fighting...... No, no, after putting out the fire for a long time at night, it will be dawn, and they will all get up one after another, preparing for today's hard battle, but they just don't see any movement on the side of Kun Yuguo, if it weren't for the patrols, everyone would think that those tents were empty.
The general and the assassin are really a little crazy now, what is Kun Yuguo going to do? In the middle of the night, I fought a fight, and it will be three poles a day, and it is quiet, is it possible to make up for sleep?
That's right, Kun Yuguo is really making up for sleep, anyway, the city is besieged, those who come out can't get out, those who enter can't get in, and the rest are not in a hurry, since it's not in a hurry, why do you want to fight with two panda eyes? It's good to sleep peacefully.
At noon, there was finally movement in the camp of Kun Yuguo, everyone rubbed their sleepy eyes, came out to wash and eat, and the soldiers on the city wall also pulled rice into their mouths with rice bowls, but, they did not eat leisurely at all, and the army of Kun Yuguo finally woke up, so is it going to fight again?
The general shouted as he ate:
"Don't eat too much, it will affect you when you fight!"
The soldiers poured their rice into their stomachs, grabbed their weapons and guarded the battlements, nervously observing the movements of the camp of Kun Yuguo.
Looking at the Kun Yuguo army again, they washed up very leisurely, chewed and ate slowly, and then stood outside the city wall, not knowing what they were talking about.
The general felt that he was about to vomit blood, did the army of Kun Yuguo treat them as monkeys?! It's the first time I've fought a war to such a wretched state!
The army of Kun Yuguo saw the "monkey", and then dispersed separately, maintaining the weapons of the maintenance of weapons, and those who continued to rest went back to the tent to continue to rest, chatting and chatting together, the soldiers on the city wall looked stupid, did the Kun Yuguo come to fight, or did they come to walk and see the scenery? ! Hey, there's a vote of people waiting to fight you here!
Thorn Shi also felt helpless, Zhuo Ye didn't come, but, with this abnormal combat style, how did it feel like Zhuo Ye was in the camp opposite.
Thorn Shi stared at the other side with round eyes, wanting to see if Zhuo Ye was there, but after watching it for a long time, only his eyes were blown by the wind.
Helplessly, it was consumed until dark, and the soldiers planned to eat and go to bed early.
Coming together in twos and threes, chatting about today's worries while eating.
The general and the assassin also talked about the Kun Yu army, but they were not as optimistic as the soldiers, and the two were worried about whether there would be a night attack.
The big bonfire under the city had long since burned out, and it was impossible for them to go out of the city to set it up, and there was not much firewood in the city, so they had to save some money.
The general took a bite of steamed bread and said:
"Kun Yuguo doesn't plan to attack at night, attacking at night, for them, there are some benefits."
Thorn Shi looked outside the city worriedly, and saw that the army of the Kun Yu Kingdom was also eating, but the atmosphere of the people eating was obviously better than theirs, and it was happy, not like a war at all.
sighed secretly and pushed a dish in front of the general:
"Don't think about it so much, eat yourself first, we're nervous enough to go hungry anymore, otherwise, we won't be able to survive for long."
The general sighed and silently ate with Thorn Shi.
After two bites, the general said:
"We shouldn't be in the city, we should go out and fight them! They are only tens of thousands of people, divided in various city gates, there are not many city gates, with our troops, concentrate a little to kill first, and when their reinforcements come, we will also kill it, as long as the Kunyu national army in other places moves, we can come to a front and back attack, first clean up a batch, the pressure can be less. ”
Thorn Shi shook his head:
"The war of Kun Yuguo has never been won by numbers, they are using weapons, those strange weapons, they have repeatedly created a record of almost zero deaths, not only zero deaths, but also almost zero deaths of the army fighting against them, we are now relying on the protection of the city wall, and we can carry them for a while, and wait for the reinforcements in front of the city to transfer, and then we will attack back and forth, but, now we must not go out of the city, and going out of the city is equivalent to defeat."
The general waved his hand disappreciably:
"You are too cautious, Kun Yuguo surrounded us for a day and didn't do anything, it means that they have shortcomings, I think, this must be a lack of troops, why don't we take this opportunity to drive Kun Yuguo back? If we don't, we'll be able to break their gates. ”
Thorn Shi disagreed with him.
The two were arguing, and suddenly heard a few bangs, and a question popped up in their minds at the same time: What's going on? But before this question was fully formed in my mind, I saw that several holes were smashed into the roof of the city tower on the city wall, and the soldiers in the room fled one after another, one by one, in a panic.
The first reaction of the assassin Shi and the general was to climb to the battlement to look at the camp of Kun Yuguo, what they thought was that such a destructive power could not be caused by the bullet crossbow, could it be that they were spending this day in order to wait for the siege machine!
But I looked at the battlement for a long time, and now the sky is a little dark, but it has not yet reached the point where I can't see anything clearly, and it can be determined in the dimness that there is no siege machine in the camp of Kun Yuguo, so where does such a great destructive power come from?
The two turned their heads to look at the smashed and leaky tower, and looked at each other again, neither of them could explain anything to the other.
