The night quietly fell on the bitter cold land here, because it is located in the northwest, so the night temperature at this time of year had to be wrapped in a coat.

Temutel once again slowly walked up to the command platform, flanked by Humeng soldiers who were waiting for battle, holding torches and standing solemnly, illuminating the entire Humeng camp.

After a few hours of military rectification, the morale of the soldiers has gradually stabilized, but it is still much weaker than before, after all, this kind of foolish frustration, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even Temutel himself has an urge to pull out a knife and wipe his neck.

Therefore, as a last resort, he gathered the southern and northern tribes that were still resting, and let them fight a hearty battle in front of the eastern and western soldiers, and stimulate their already depleted morale.

There weren't many words, and Temutel himself wasn't a very good general, so he only said one sentence while holding his broadsword on the podium.

"Kill all those swallow dogs!"

......Yan Wuji looked at the brightly lit Humeng camp in the distance, and his eyes were locked on the burly Humeng general on the command platform of the camp, he knew that that person was Temuter, the commander of the Humeng army outside the city, and the culprit who tortured and killed Liu Debiao.

Yan Wuji is very calm now, so calm that there is only one thought in his mind, and that is when he will be able to slash that guy with a knife.

No, it's Ling Chi!

The Humeng soldiers who came out didn't give Yan Wuji much time to imagine the scene of Ling Chi Temuter, Humeng's next attack was about to come again, and he swept the neat Yan soldiers on the city wall left and right, so that he gained some confidence, after all, in the first two attacks, the combat power of the Northern Guard can be said to be zero loss.

Again, the familiar horn sounded, and Hu Meng's military formation moved again, although the sky was dark, but with the illumination of the torches, Yan Wuji could clearly see the commander in front of the other party's formation.

Replaced, replaced by a fat man.

"Knock knock ......" is different from the previous two times, rows of earth-shattering war drums sounded from in front of the Humeng army formation, followed by the Humeng army formation roaring in unison, an unstoppable power towards the Yan soldiers standing at the head of the wall of Xiema Town.

Not to be outdone, Yan Shuyi also pulled out his long sword at this time, pointed obliquely at the sky, and shouted: "The Yan army will win." ”

This roar was like a boulder falling into the water, one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and aroused the high fighting spirit that soared into the sky in the calm city of Shema Town.

"The Yan army will win! The Yan army will win! The Yan army will win! The collective shout of thousands of people was no weaker than the momentum of the Humeng army outside the city, at first it was just the Northern Guard shouting, and then this fearless momentum quickly spread to every corner of Xiema Town, even those wandering merchants who did not have time to retreat into the hinterland were also infected by this momentum, and shouted passionately along with the rhythm of the Yan army.

Humon, who had suffered a loss, had completely abandoned the big shield that had brought them almost humiliation, and instead used the original round shield, and as soon as the drums behind them fell, these Humeng soldiers were like wild horses on the loose, rumbling like ten thousand beasts galloping, and once again rushed towards the town of Shema.

Familiar with the road, with the experience of the first two battles, Yan Wuji skillfully issued a combat order, twenty crossbow beds quickly operated again, with a roar that pierced the sky, the Hu Meng soldiers who were charging at high speed under the city fell in groups of three or five, and the gradual wailing was quickly drowned out by the crazy rush and killing, although the crossbow arrows were powerful, but this time it did not seem to have much of a deterrent effect on these Hu Meng soldiers.

Closer, closer, the longbowmen began their attack under Yan Wuji's orders, bending their bows and arrows.

"Buzz!"

A hundred longbows were fired in unison at a time under the command of the commander, and in the face of such a dense charge, they did not need to deliberately aim at all.

As soon as the 100 longbowmen in the front row fired, they took a step back, gave up their position to the other 100 longbowmen behind them, and at the same time took out the arrows placed in the quiver next to them and wound them! Draw the bow!

At this time, it happened that the hundred arrows in front of him came out of their hands from the longbow, giving up their place to the back row that was already ready, and so on wave after wave, forming a dense rain of arrows that would not stop.

The high-speed arrows of "puff puff" mercilessly pierced the bodies of the Humeng soldiers below, and with their inertia, they made the Humeng soldiers who were running at a rapid speed fly upside down.

In this short distance of dozens of zhang, it was already full of wailing Hu Meng's soldiers, but no one cared about their life or death, and even some of the Hu Meng's soldiers who hindered the advance of the troops behind were mercilessly trampled under their feet in the next moment, and one after another crazy soldiers stepped on the previous road that had been opened up, and they didn't care whether they were stepping on dirt or flesh under their feet.

"Boom, boom, boom" A few sparse arrows flew past Yan Wuji's side, this is the archers of Humeng under the city began to counterattack, from sparse to dense, more and more, at this time, there is no longer the ease on the wall of Xiema Town, and the sudden increase in pressure has brought more and more intense death here.

"Poof!" Before he could make a sound, a longbowman was shot in the left eye by a stray arrow, which then pierced through the back of the right head.

He still held the longbow in his hand tightly, and turned his head to look at his comrades around him with a blink of his right eye, and then slowly fell down in the silence of the other party.

The Grim Reaper has already begun his harvest on the Yan Army's side.

The arrows on both sides began to pour back and forth at will, and the Yan army's arrow array at this time had been disrupted, or it was at the deliberate request of the commanding generals that they began to shoot in the gaps, after all, at this stage, saving life is the first priority.

The siege ladder once again set up the wall of Shema Town, and groups of Humeng soldiers who were not afraid of death climbed up the ladder one by one, and their fierce eyes pierced the Yan army on the city wall, like hungry wolves.

At this time, there is no need for Yan Wuji to give any more attack orders, what is needed now is only one goal, that is, to prevent the enemy from climbing the city wall, and in order to achieve this result, there are no restrictions, and even dying with the other party is allowed at this time.

The fierce shouts of killing continued to sound at the head of Xiema Town, making Temuter, who was watching the battle from a distance, nervously hold the big knife in his hand, and leaned forward to rush to the wall immediately, slashing the Yan army that dared to hinder his advance.

"Almost, almost, fast! Keep up! He muttered to himself in a low voice, like a mantra recited during a prayer service, and in his eyes, the town of Shema never seemed to be so close to him, ignoring the Humont soldiers who fell like flaming ants from the ladder, and in his eyes, they were all pawns sprinkled for the purpose of achieving their purpose, lifeless chess pieces.

Time passed little by little in his eyes, but there was still no progress in the distance he was from Shema Town, and this feeling of not being able to go up and down, and gradually smoothing out Temutel's already extremely limited patience.

"Go tell the fat man, rush up harder, if he can't run, just wait for him to come back, and I'll help him lose all his fat." Some frantically gave orders, but without the look of a madman, Temutel kept his face calm as always, but if you looked closely, there was endless madness in those eyes.

Hurried footsteps sounded behind Yan Wuji, and Liu Zhilan came behind Yan Wuji with an unsheathed sword, and the blade was still stained with dazzling blood, although it was not much, but it was not a good sign.

"Whew...... After ......taking two deep breaths to make himself no longer feel breathless, Liu Zhilan spoke: "Mr. Qian, Hu Meng's offensive is very fierce, and someone has already rushed to the city wall just now, but fortunately, the soldiers worked together and killed them back. ”

Yan Wuji's scalp tingled as he looked at the ant-like Humeng soldiers under the city, and a sense of powerlessness quietly rose from the bottom of his heart, but in the next moment, he was pressed into a corner and buried deeply.

"It's not a way to go on like this, according to the current Humeng people's lifeless fighting style, we will definitely not hold out until dawn." Liu Zhilan spoke again, talking about the worries in his heart.

"Do you have any good ideas?" Yan Wuji opened his mouth, but this opening made him want to slap himself hard, what an incompetent question.

"The last general believes that there are many Humeng people, and it is absolutely not feasible for soldiers to come and cover them here, and we need to create psychological pressure on them to retreat."

Yan Wuji let out a sigh, "Let the other party retreat, either to make the other party fear of death, or to crush the other party with absolute strength and make the other party desperate."

In our current situation, it is impossible to make these Humeng soldiers despair, so we can only use the fear of death in their hearts. ”

"Exactly" Liu Zhilan whispered, Yan Wuji does have admirable talents, he can accurately keep up with other people's ideas, and give a more accurate analysis than that, Liu Zhilan did not continue to say his thoughts, in comparison, he would prefer to hear Yan Wuji's point of view.

Facing Liu Zhilan's somewhat eager gaze, Yan Wuji was slightly grateful in his heart, he understood that this was the other party's point to him, so he continued to express his opinion: "At present, the most frightening way is to use fire attack. ”

Liu Zhilan nodded approvingly, "What Mr. Qian said is very true, there is not much else in Xiema Town, but the material reserves are absolutely sufficient, we will put tung oil in a tank and seal it, let the soldiers all throw it off the city wall, and then ignite it with rockets, it will definitely have an excellent effect." ”

"Mr. Liu's plan is very second!" In the past, Yan Wuji always called Liu Zhilan's name directly, or was commensurate with his official position, but at this time, he admired this scheming scholar from the bottom of his heart, so his title was changed to Mr.

Such a respectful and unfamiliar title made Liu Zhilan slightly flustered, and then said with a smile: "In this way, please report to Qiu Yingshuai as soon as possible, the time is urgent, and this matter needs to be done as soon as possible." ”

Yan Wuji knew what Liu Zhilan was thinking, and he still said that sentence, not to compete with Shangguan, if he did it before, Yan Wuji would naturally not bother to say anything, but now he wanted to talk openly and honestly with Liu Zhilan about this point of view:

"Mr. Liu doesn't need to be like this, although there are many taboos in the ranks, but I don't need to worry about these here, to put it very realistically, even if Mr. Liu, you take all the credit, and after a hundred years of my father, the supreme commander of the Northwest Army can only be me, so it is natural for Mr. Liu to pay attention to the superiority and respect, but here in Yan Wuji, you can be a little less cautious, so that I can feel that you are a comrade-in-arms that I can rely on."

The corners of Liu Zhilan's mouth twitched twice, but after all, he didn't say anything, he hugged his fist to Yan Wuji in front of him, and then turned around and quickly went down the city wall, looking for Qiu Xin in the city.
