Volume 3 Two Capital Storms Chapter 71 Digging a Well on the Edge of Thirst

The rumbling sound of thunder resounded throughout the field, and hundreds of large siege machines of different forms and functions appeared on the horizon like hundreds of huge war beasts, showing their hideous fangs to Luoyang, which was like an isolated island.

Han Sui rode alone to meet the ironclad knight galloping from afar, and laughed happily: "With Miss Lao in person, the foolish brother is grateful!" ”

The ironclad knight grabbed the reins of the horse, slowly pushed up the face protection, revealing that shocking jade face, and said with a smile: "Finally, it is worthy of Brother Han's trust!" Xiaomei brought nearly 500 pieces of equipment and a large number of grain and grass quilts this time, as well as 17,000 foot soldiers, but the cavalry was only 500! ”

"Okay!" Even Han Sui was moved and said: "It is commendable that a brother can gather 10,000 people as a virtuous sister, but how do you know that there are 17,000!" Then the total strength of our army will reach 80,000, of which in addition to the cavalry 25,000, there are still 55,000 infantry troops that can be used to attack the city, and the chances of victory will increase! Ha ha! The odds are even higher! ”

"In this way, the little sister can be said to have worked hard this time?" The beautiful knight smiled: "Then how does Brother Han plan to praise the little sister?" ”

Her smile is like a blooming flower and a bright morning star, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the country is overwhelmed.

Even Han Sui looked at it a little straight, he was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help shaking his head and said, "Little sister, you are getting more and more beautiful!" After this battle, you can disarm and return home, and your brother and I will definitely say that a peerless gentleman will be a matchmaker with you, and from now on, you will be married and taught children, and the house will be full of gold and jade, which is better than your sword and blood all day long! ”

"Speaking of which, we can't stop you!" He said a little gloomily: "If it weren't for the shortage of talents, how could we ruthlessly let you do so many dangerous things with a female streamer?" ”

"You're here again!" The beautiful woman sneered, "Don't try to escape the problem! How the hell do you thank me? ”

"I really want your lifelong happiness......" Han Sui looked at the faint scar on the side of the woman's pretty face, and felt a pain in his heart.

He saw the woman's phoenix eyes glaring at her viciously, and hurriedly raised her hand to surrender and said, "Okay!" Didn't you say it for your brother? How about picking a wishful husband for you? ”

"What wishful thinking?" The woman said proudly, "Is there any man in the world who can be worthy of me?" ”

She thought about it sideways and said, "I heard that the one who is now in charge of guarding Luoyang is the Eagle Yang Zhonglang General?" ”

"Yes, that's the person!" Han Sui's eyes lit up and said, "I heard that Sister Xian has acted several times, but this person has been the obstruction?" Good! After breaking the city for my brother, how about cutting this person with a thousand knives and relieving your anger? ”

"Don't kill him!" The woman said lightly, she saw Han Sui's suspicious gaze, and said angrily: "This person has ruined my big things several times, wouldn't it be too cheap to kill him?" You must be captured alive and handed over to me to dispose of with my own hands! ”

"You're trying to recruit him, aren't you? By you, by you! Han Sui said helplessly: "But this person is very powerful, you don't want to raise a tiger, but be injured by a tiger!" ”

"You don't have to worry about it!" The woman suddenly sighed and said, "Since you also said that our talent is extremely short, you should understand my deep meaning!" ”

Han Sui smiled bitterly and was silent.

"You have surrounded Luoyang, and all actions are carried out according to plan! So, have you ever thought about it? The woman's beautiful eyes flashed eagerly: "When will my eldest brother be able to reveal his identity?" ”

"It's coming! Now is not the time! Han Sui looked into the distance and said leisurely: "This time, the main force of our army is still confronting the main force of the Han army on the front line, and most of the troops left in Liangzhou have been transferred here by me, and the rear is empty. It is conceivable that no matter whether this battle is successful or not, the Liangzhou region, which has been controlled by our side for six or seven out of ten, will be taken advantage of by the Han army to seize most of it. And your eldest brother, he is the last secret move, and the day he openly appears in front of the world will be the time when we fully control Liangzhou! ”

"I said, how dare you surround Luoyang with such a desperate army, completely ignoring our lair!" The woman suddenly realized: "It turns out that she has already left her back hand, but she kept me in the dark!" ”

"Virtuous sister forgiveness!" Han Sui let out a smug chuckle, raised his hand and pointed to Luoyang not far away, and said proudly: "If you can break through Luoyang, Brother Fool can guarantee that the name of the virtuous sister will be enough to go down in history!" ”

"Good fellows! So much! Nanying also vaguely saw the dense siege equipment in the distance at the head of the city, and couldn't help but gasp.

"General, judging by the Eagle Dance of the Eye of the Sky! The enemy troops responsible for escorting this batch of equipment are close to 20,000! Gao Feng darkened his face and whispered behind Nanying.

"Well, the enemy is at least four times as large as mine!" Nan Ying muttered: "These are not the rabble of the Yellow Turban Army, but the elite of Liangzhou whose combat power is no less than our army or even surpasses our army!" This is not a good battle! Gao Feng, you go around again and be sure to fill all the loopholes that may appear! ”

"Ma Jun!" He turned his head and looked around, shouting.

"The last general!" Ma Jun trotted all the way over. His forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and there was a trace of tiredness on his face that was difficult to hide.

"How's the city defense?" Nan Ying pointed to the enemy army cluster in the distance: "To choose the key point, Ben General only wants to know if with our army's current city defense, can it withstand such a large-scale heavy siege equipment of the enemy army!" ”

"Yes, General!" Ma Jun said without hesitation: "If the enemy army mainly attacks the West Gate, the last general thinks that short-term defense is not a problem. However, if the enemy attacks for a long time or shifts the direction of the attack, our army will be very passive! ”

He pointed not far away, where several Han soldiers were testing a crossbow lane that had just been installed: "There are a total of 300 ballistae of various types in Luoyang City, and most of them have been dismantled and relocated to the western front. At the same time, we also have a hundred Eagle's Nest ballistae that were originally hidden in the Xu Mansion, and the installation will basically be completed! ”

"Of course, in order to prevent the enemy from attacking him!" He smiled and said, "These ballistas can be disassembled and moved at any time, and at the same time, the last general will ......."

"What about catapults?" Nanying interrupted, "I didn't see a catapult in the city, what's going on?" ”

"General, you're laughing!" Ma Jun showed a wry smile, he leaned closer and lowered his voice and said: "The Eagle's Nest can place catapults on the city wall, because we have taken into account enough space when building the city wall, this Luoyang City Wall is not as good as our Eagle's Nest, where to find a place to put it?" ”

"What's more! There is not a catapult in the huge Luoyang City! He spread his hands and said, "After three days of full effort, the last general has made three of them, and is building an earthen platform along the inner side of the city wall, let's see if we can put them on them!" ”

"Tell the truth!" Ma Jun looked at Nanying's increasingly ugly face, and hurriedly argued: "General, it's not that the last general shirks his responsibility, but that the city defense of Luoyang City is in name only, the defense is lax, and the facilities are old, and many equipment generals have to be renovated so that they can continue to be used."

"!" Nanying finally couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth: "Didn't you say that Luoyang City is the first male city in the world?" It's all Mengren, it's better to have our eagle's nest! ”

"And you, aren't you very good?" Nanying was a little angry and said, "I gave you so many manpower, why did you make three catapults in three days?" ”

"Back to the general! There's something big going on at the end! Ma Jun said aggrievedly: "You didn't let me ...... before"

"Shut up! Give you half a day! Nan Ying's finger poked at Ma Jun's little head one by one: "I must set up the only three catapults for me to ensure that they can be launched smoothly, otherwise I will cut ......."

When he saw Ma Jun looking at him without fear, he was even more furious in his heart, and shouted: "Don't cut off your head, cut off your heir to the next generation, let you follow Zhang Rang to be a little yellow gate!" ”

"Mom!" Ma Jun finally changed color, turned around and ran away with his head in his arms.

"General!" Pei Yuanshao came to Nanying and said: "The last general is fortunate not to be dishonored, all the fire oil and cooking oil in Luoyang City have been collected within three days, and they have now been transported to the city!" ”

"Well done!" Nanying finally heard some good news, and he said casually: "There was no disturbance to the people during the collection, right?" ”

"Disturbing the people?" Pei Yuanshao said with a complicated expression: "How much oil does the common people have in their homes?" They even use stoves for lighting. These oils are basically snatched from those wealthy families by virtue of your Emperor's decree! Please forgive the General! ”

"Your grandma's! What sins are forgiven? Nanying grinned when he heard this, and slapped Pei Yuanshao on the shoulder: "Good grab!" Grab it well! It's best to grab all the beams in their house and the rocks in the courtyard to Lao Tzu, and they can all be used to defend the city! ”

"This last general doesn't dare, and there is no time!" Pei Yuanshao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Because, there will be other big things to do in the end!" ”

"Do you have something big too? What's the big deal? Nanying was stunned.

"A few houses not far from the city wall have been quietly requisitioned by the last general!" Pei Yuanshao whispered to Nanying ghostly: "Four hundred barrels of oil were also transported in unknowingly last night. Ma Jun sent fifty people, and they are filling there with all their might! ”

"Filling oil?" Nanying lost his voice and said, "No wonder I didn't see those big barrels in the city, what are you doing?" ”

"Why don't you know?" Pei Yuanshao was a little surprised: "Ma Jun discussed with the last general that day, and prepared to use thousands of clay pots to pack and seal the oil, so that not only can we reduce waste, but also not be afraid of our own fire ignition by mistake, and can also carry out long-range launch against the enemy's large-scale siege equipment!" ”

"I see! I wronged that kid! Nan Ying was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said abruptly: "No wonder this kid also said that he was doing big things, but I was in a hurry and scolded him indiscriminately!" ”

"Dangdang" The sound of the alarm bell suddenly rang continuously.

"General! And voila! One of the Han soldiers shouted, "The enemy is coming!" ”

"Is it finally here?" Nan Ying turned his wrist and held his two knives in his hand, and he smiled and said, "If I don't die this time, the first thing I will do is to apologize to Xiao Ma Jun!" ”

He slowly walked to the edge of the city, stared at the endless siege army array in the distance, and slowly raised his sword above his head, and suddenly, he roared with all his strength: "The whole army is ready, I am invincible!" ”

"I'm invincible!" Suddenly, on the city wall, the majestic shouts of the Han army were like a shock, straight to the clouds.

When the Han army's oath to fight to the death broke through the Han Dynasty, it seemed to be a coincidence in the dark, and hundreds of thousands of kilometers above their heads also produced amazing anomalies.

In the vastness of outer space, a black hole suddenly appeared in a certain space without warning, and a huge interstellar battleship suddenly jumped out, and the silver light flowed on the hull of the ship with a milky white soft light, and invisible energy fluctuations shot out in all directions at a speed far exceeding the speed of light, detecting all the stars in the solar system.

Most of the detection rays came straight to the earth, and one of them soon silently enveloped Luoyang, the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty.
