Chapter 106: Chengdu Crackdown on Thieves (7)

After more than ten rounds of staggered ballista fired, the city wall in the north of Chengdu Mansion has become full of holes, the stone wall was hit by the ballista and exploded into a black pothole, and the gap opened by the explosion is still occasionally emitting a wisp of black smoke at this time, rising along the wall, floating up the city, floating to the sky above everyone's heads.

In just half an hour, the entire north of the city is like a meteorite rain falling from the sky, the originally smooth bluestone road was smashed out of a deep foot, diameter of nearly a meter and different sizes of the pit, because of the high temperature burned by the iron thistle terrestris can no longer emit a shining cold light, black and cold scattered everywhere.

The defenders of the city were also embarrassed by the debris raised by the explosion, and they had been feeling fast for half an hour, but just now it was as if they had endured a whole day's torment, and the reserve soldiers poured up to the city, lifting the wounded or dead companions and sending them down the city. The latest new force to take up the post continues to carry the shield and stick to their posts, but their eyes always reveal a look of horror.

In fact, the "bombardment" of this half hour did not cause much damage to the defenders, and after a quick count, the results soon came out, and less than 100 soldiers died on the spot, and most of these unlucky ghosts who died directly were hit by a ballista or very close to the explosion point, and suffered direct trauma. There were only a few dozen seriously injured soldiers, and in terms of luck, they were only slightly luckier than the former, some were blocked by the shield, and some avoided their own vital points to not let the thistle succeed.

As for minor injuries, there are more than 1,000 people. However, most of them were hit by sharp thistles or pierced parts that were not fatal, and a small number of unlucky ones were affected by the explosion, but they were not fatal enough, as long as they were bandaged and treated in time, they could continue to return to the battlefield in a short time.

Chen Jingxuan is relatively lucky, he can generally climb to such a high position in the festival, and naturally he can't lack the frequent arrival of the lucky god and even follow him all the time. This is true not only for the main characters in telenovela, but also in reality. Chen Jingxuan also had a thrilling experience just now, a ballista falling from the sky fell a few meters beside him, and in a panic, he was still thrown to the ground by Gongsun Yun, who was quick and quick-eyed, and covered the entire shield in his hand.

But even more fortunately, the arrow turned out to be "dumb", that is, it did not explode at all after landing. In this way, not only Chen Jingxuan under the shield did not suffer any damage, but even Gongsun Yun, who had no time to roll to the side, was unharmed. But even so, after the two of them got up, they also had palpitations, after all, both of them had also seen the power of the explosion of artillery arrows, especially seeing a soldier who was pushed six or seven meters away by the shock wave of the explosion and floated across the city to the city, and the thought of that experience was terrifying.

When the rhythm of the attack under the city paused slightly, Chen Jingxuan also sorted out his thoughts a little, quickly swept through everyone, and decisively issued various orders. Under such an offensive, even those generals who usually boasted of being brave and good at fighting on weekdays mostly shrank behind their own guards and henchmen to become shrinking turtles. On weekdays, they often boast that they want to say that they are going to descend to the gods, if they are asked to say who has the greatest ability at this moment, these people will definitely not have a word of boasting in their mouths, but will "modestly" recommend their opponents, and then they will be a miscellaneous person who is not even as good as an ordinary soldier.

In the face of such a group of subordinates, although Chen Jingxuan was extremely annoyed, he really had no good way, after all, this was a desperate job, not a paper talk on weekdays, but a down-to-earth battle with real guns and real guns. However, there are still a few high-ranking generals who are more competitive, and they have always commanded the resistance in an orderly manner regardless of their own safety under the offensive just now, including a group of men headed by General Wang.

General Wang also had a small calculation in his heart when he did this, after all, this situation was the only opportunity to show loyalty to his superiors and show his prestige to his subordinates. In addition, General Wang's current status is indeed fought out on the battlefield with a knife and a gun, although it is a little difficult to control the current scene, but the blood in the body and the strength of not admitting defeat in the bones also burst out, and no matter whether several cronies under his command are afraid of death or not, just carry their swords and always meet the front line, and whenever they encounter a soldier who is injured and falls to the ground, they will pull it to the rear, raise the shield with one hand, and then wait until there are men to replace him, and then turn around to fill other exits. Within half an hour, it can be said that the city is full of non-stop rushing, and the damage can be reduced to such a low level, General Wang is indeed indispensable.

In contrast, Gongsun Yun is much easier, nothing more than leading a cadre of personal guards to protect Chen Jingxuan from harm, and by the way, he will occasionally fill the vacancy and command the defense. This also made the busy General Wang take the time to catch a few glances, and he was also very proud in his heart.

Hum! I haven't really been on the battlefield, but I'm still very tender! Just this ability, your Gongsun Yun is beyond the reach of the dust! For half an hour, General Wang didn't know how many times he had despised Gongsun Yun, who had been by Chen Jingxuan's side from beginning to end.

"General Wang! Great work! After General Wang stood in front of Chen Jingxuan sweating profusely and reported the approximate battle damage just counted, Chen Jingxuan nodded approvingly, stretched out his hand and pulled out an iron thistle that was still hanging on the armor on General Wang's chest, and praised with a look of appreciation: "Thanks to General Wang just now, he was at the forefront!" This can minimize our losses! ”

"The last general will not dare to take credit! This is all the result of the adults being able to advance and retreat with the soldiers in a critical moment! General Wang hurriedly responded modestly with his fists clenched. Being praised in front of so many generals, General Wang was also happy in his heart for a while, and then he didn't forget to secretly cast a smug look at Gongsun Yun, who was slightly injured next to Chen Jingxuan, the meaning is very obvious, on the battlefield, your kid is still a little tender, hide behind and learn a little!

"My lord, the Feng family army under the city has only just stopped the first round of offensive, presumably the second round of offensive will come soon. The last general suggested that the adults should go down to the city for the time being, and leave it to the last general for the time being! Defend the city, and not let an enemy army come up! As soon as he was appreciative, General Wang's ambition and desire to seize military power were unabashedly displayed. In fact, up to now, General Wang's ambition has been transformed into an obsession year by year, he is just unwilling, he is unwilling to make great achievements under Chen Jingxuan, but in the end he has not had a chance to take charge of the three armies.

"General Wang doesn't need to persuade anymore, this section has just made an oath at the head of the city, vowing to advance and retreat with the whole army!" Chen Jingxuan didn't think much about it at this time, just waved his arm vigorously, and a sky-high arrogance rose all over his body, and he shouted in a tone that no one could say more and question: "As the chief general of the three armies in this section, how can you leave the soldiers and go down to the city alone to hide at this time!" Don't persuade anymore! Unless the enemy army is repelled today, even if this section dies on this road, he will never go down the city! ”

Hearing Chen Jingxuan's words so firmly, everyone couldn't flatter them indiscriminately, so they had to nod their heads and clench their fists to receive their orders, and each went to defend the defense of the section of the city wall that was assigned.
