Chapter 496: Steamed Cake with Blood
The sky gradually darkened, and there was a strong bloody atmosphere in the cloud building, and the corpses of Yan Jun in the corridor were piled up more than one person high, and they were about to block the corridor.
Chang Kun stood on the main city wall with a blood-dripping sword and looked at the towering cloud tower on Yun Mountain, and his side and behind him were full of Yan soldiers with swords in their hands.
A team officer walked up to Chang Kun and reminded: "Master, it's getting dark!" ”
The dim light and the smell of blood from the corpses attracted many mosquitoes and flies flying above and around the heads of the Yan soldiers, and from time to time someone waved their hands and slapped the mosquitoes that bited their faces.
Chang Kun raised his arm and wiped the blood stains on his face, and said in a deep voice: "The last attack before dark, you personally lead the team, give me a breath to rush to the top of the building, and I will let the archers cover you!" ”
"Yes!" The officers of the first team hugged their fists, turned around and waved to the soldiers behind them: "Brothers, follow me, attack the cloud tower before dark and kill those Wei troops!" ”
"Roar!" The Yan generals shouted in unison.
Although this team officer was only a team officer, he was carrying a three-pointed two-edged knife, and with a wave of his big hand, he took the lead in rushing towards Yunlou with a three-pointed and two-edged knife.
The slope of the auxiliary wall is not too steep, and there are stone ladders, the Yan generals just rushed halfway to attract the bows and arrows of the Wei army on the cloud tower, and the Yan soldiers fell down and never got up, and the other Yan troops still rushed with their heads down.
The archers of the Yan army in the back rushed up and released arrows on the cloud tower, wanting to suppress them from a distance, and the number of archers of the Yan army and the number of arrows shot had an advantage, which also suppressed the Wei archers on the cloud tower to a certain extent.
The first team officer quickly rushed to the cloud tower with the Wei soldiers, some of the soldiers hid on both sides of the entrance in two groups, and the team officer waved his hand and shouted to the soldiers around him: "Rush me!" ”
"Kill—" The Yan soldiers who had received the order rushed into the entrance.
"Puff, puff······" The sound of a sharp blade piercing into the human body sounded in the corridor, and then there was the sound of weapons clashing, and the sound of the human body falling to the ground.
A Yan soldier rushed in, and there was no movement in less than a moment.
The face of the first team officer changed, and he pointed to the other chief: "You guys up!" ”
Shi Chang had to tighten the long knife in his hand, turned his head and waved to the soldiers behind him: "Follow me!" After speaking, he took the lead and rushed into the cloud building.
"Kill, give me death—" The shouts of the Yan soldiers sounded in the corridor.
The officers and other soldiers on the city wall could not see the specific scene of the battle in the corridor, they could only see the constant flickering of figures, the splashing of blood, and the constant sound of weapons striking and slashing.
The sound in the cloud building soon stopped again, and it returned to calm.
The first team officer slowly turned his head to look at the third chief and waved his hand: "You guys up!" ”
The third chief hurriedly retreated, "Team officer, there is a Wei general in it who is too powerful, our minions are not opponents at all, if you go in, you will be sent to death, it's not that your subordinates are afraid of death, it's really that there are eighty old mothers in the family, if your subordinates die, the old mother will have no one to support the team officer······
"Your uncle!" The officers of the first team were so angry that they wanted to kill this Shi Chang Liwei, but when he saw that the soldiers around him were all frightened, and the eyes that looked at him were not so friendly, he understood that these soldiers were blaming him for not taking the lead in the attack, and only let these small soldiers go to death.
The officer of the first team gritted his teeth and shouted to all the soldiers: "Rush with me, if anyone is afraid of the enemy, the officer of this team will not spare and kill—" After shouting, he rushed in with a three-pointed two-edged knife.
Other soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, one of them shouted: "Look at what, do you want to be beheaded?" Rush in with me to support the officer! ”
The soldiers also rushed into the Cloud Tower under the leadership of Shi Chang, and at this time, there was already a fierce confrontation in the corridor of the Cloud Tower.
The first team officer suffered a big loss, when he rushed up the stairs, Hua Mulan took a fancy to the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand at a glance, although this thing is different from the big knife she used, but they are all knives, although the usage is different, but it is not very big, she did not bring this operation because she wanted to minimize the load, but after climbing the city wall, in the face of a large number of Yan army's long weapons to attack in turn, the disadvantages of the sword in her hand being too short were highlighted.
The first team officer only supported five confluences before his neck was cut off by Mulan's sword, and his three-pointed and two-edged knife could not be used at all in this narrow environment, and he had no power to fight back in the face of Mulan's attack.
"Ding-ding-ding-······" After a series of weapons resonating, more than a dozen Yan soldiers were killed in the cloud tower, and the Yan soldiers behind were forced to retreat in amazement.
Hua Mulan inserted the sword back into the scabbard, she rushed out of the cloud tower with a three-pointed two-edged knife, swept with one move, and the four Yan soldiers who had no time to push away were stopped and cut into two pieces on the spot.
The two soldiers took advantage of her move to quickly stab at her, and with a swing of the three-pointed two-edged knife in her hand, the two spears were knocked open, and the three-pointed two-edged knife stabbed twice in succession, stabbing the two Wei soldiers to death.
Some of the dead soldiers of the Wei army in the cloud tower rushed out and rushed out behind Hua Mulan and on both sides to rush and kill together, and the Yan army was killed one after another, retreating one after another, and suffered heavy losses.
"Whoosh ······" A rain of arrows came.
Hua Mulan's face changed, and she swung the three-pointed two-edged knife impenetrable, and the arrows that came one after another kept being knocked away, but there were dead soldiers of the Wei army who were shot dead behind her.
"Go back!" Mulan backs away as she blocks the arrows she fires.
The dead soldiers of the Wei army were forced to retreat to the cloud tower by bows and arrows, and after Hua Mulan retreated to the cloud tower, she immediately kicked the door shut, and the sound of tinkling and dingling came, and a rain of arrows shot at the door.
"Come and help!" Hua Mulan pressed against the gate and shouted to the dead soldiers of the Wei army in the corridor, "Quickly block the corpse door!" ”
The dead soldiers of the Wei army ran down to carry the corpses to block the door, and the Yan soldiers outside kept slashing the wooden door with their swords, and before they could cut the wooden door, Hua Mulan and others finally blocked the door with the corpse.
Chang Kun came over with a large group of people, and a chief stepped forward to report: "Lord, the officer was killed by the Wei army, the brothers suffered heavy losses, the Wei army blocked the door in the cloud building, and the corpses were piled up all over the corridor, and the brothers couldn't rush up no matter what!" ”
Chang Kun looked at the sky, it was already dark, and he had been killed for a whole day, the soldiers were tired and hungry, and their morale was a little low, he knew that he couldn't fight anymore, even if he forcibly attacked, it would have no effect, so he had to order: "The second team will guard the city wall over there, first, to prevent the Wei army in the cloud tower from escaping, and second, to prevent the Wei army from climbing up from the mountains and forests, all give Lao Tzu some vigilance, if something goes wrong, Lao Tzu will kill him, do you understand?" ”
"Yes, General!"
Chang Kun also transferred a team of archers to surround the city walls on both sides of the Cloud Tower, and as long as Hua Mulan and the others came out of the Cloud Tower, they would shoot arrows indiscriminately.
The cloud tower and the city wall quieted down, and Hua Mulan left four people to serve as guards in the corridor, and she returned to the top of the cloud tower with the others.
After a day of fighting, everyone was tired, thirsty and hungry, and Hua Mulan and the dead soldiers of the Wei army sat down against the female wall one by one, without water or food.
The Yan soldiers on the city wall below the cloud tower had already brought them food and water, while Mulan and her dead soldiers could only stare dryly, they had no food, no water, and had to feed the mosquitoes.
It's nothing if you don't eat a meal, but after this battle has been fought for so long, everyone sweats a lot, the body loses water seriously, and the body is extremely dehydrated, Hua Mulan has already felt very tired, unable to lift her strength, and has serious thirst, she knows that this is because of the lack of water in the body, but there is no water here!
Hua Mulan thought for a while and ordered Hua Hai: "Hua Hai, you take a few people to the corridor to take off the armor from the corpse and bring it up!" ”
"Oh!" Hanahai agreed, and took a few people to collect armor.
After the armor was collected, Mulan asked Huahai and the others to spread the armor on the roof of the building, hoping to see some dew on the armor when the temperature dropped at night.
"General, can we go back alive?" Hua Hai sat down next to Mulan and asked.
Hua Mulan swallowed her throat that was about to smoke and soothed: "I must be able to!" We only have to stay here, maybe the army will break through Luronse tomorrow, and then we will be saved!" ”
Hua Hai sat up and asked, "General, can we escape at night while those Yan soldiers are asleep?" ”
Hua Mulan said: "This cloud tower is built on the outer side of the fortress, if we want to escape, we must get out of the cloud tower and reach the other side of the city wall, but there are Yan troops everywhere but there are so many of us who can't not alarm them, if everyone works together, plus if you're lucky, you should be able to escape a few, but most of the others will definitely not be able to escape."
"So can we just stay here forever? We don't have food, we don't have water, we can't last long! Hua Hai voiced her concerns.
Hua Mulan got up and stretched out her head to look at the city wall below, then sat back and said in a low voice: "I plan to wait for the night to be late, and when those Yan soldiers below fall asleep, they will suddenly lead people out to grab some food and water!" ”
Huahai was silent for a while, got up and walked over to a few soldiers and led them down to the roof.
It didn't take long for Hua Hai to walk up with a cloth bag, followed by a few soldiers, he walked to Hua Mulan with the cloth bag and handed it over: "General, give it to you, eat something!" ”
Hua Mulan suspiciously took the cloth bag and opened it, only to see that there were more than a dozen steamed cakes inside, all of them with blood, and looked up and asked, "Where did it come from?" ”
Hua Hai touched his neck, "Yes······ It was found from the corpse of Yan Jun! ”
Hua Mulan was silent for a moment, took out a steamed cake from the cloth bag, broke off a quarter, returned the rest to the cloth bag, and then handed the cloth bag to Hua Hai: "Go and divide it among the brothers, now there is no taboo or taboo in this situation!" ”
"Eh, I'll go!" Hua Hai agreed, carrying a cloth bag and began to distribute food to everyone.
