Chapter Ninety-Six: The Great War Resumes 2

Three poles on the sun, south city.

The drums of war sounded again, and this time in the Allied camp were rows of strong poles, all without the frustration of the dead and wounded in yesterday's battle, and all of them had a look of determination and victory on their faces.

The large array was lined up, standing on the roof of the house without mud, waving the small flag in his hand, and immediately there was a pole under the house to ride the herald to hold the big flag, beating the horse in the tens of thousands of elite formations to gallop back and forth, conveying the order not to stick to the mud.

The first order was to transfer the five hundred longbows supported by Woniu Mountain to the front of the formation, lined up, standing outside the city wall with an arrow, and at the same time not touching the mud and being ruthless, and then conveyed his order again, ordering all the archers in the allied army to be dispatched, integrating more than 2,000 archers, and then collecting all the shield soldiers to protect them, and to give Mizhi Dingding a devastating blow.

Those archers had just entered the land of a stone's throw and were close to the moat, and the signing of the city found an opportunity, and under the command of the deputy Qianhu Xue boss, he immediately began to fight back. For a time, thousands of arrows were fired at once, and the momentum shook the sky.

In the non-muddy arrow array, those shield players who were on standby at any time immediately stepped forward to protect the archers' heads and faces, and after a while, the shields were densely chopped with feather arrows, and the ordinary archers' arrays continued to wail and scream, and one by one the archers kept falling to the ground.

But at this time, he gave the longbow a chance, and the longbow stood outside the range of ordinary bows and arrows, and immediately ten thousand arrows were fired in unison, and for a time the huge long arrows flew into the city wall with a screech.

The sign-and-shield bearers hurriedly stepped forward to protect the archers, but the long arrows were so powerful that those shields were like papier-mΓ’chΓ© in front of them, and they immediately pierced through the shields with undiminished momentum, and they were not spared the arrows behind the shields.

The long dragon of archers and shield-bearers on the walls immediately collapsed, wailing and screaming into the sky.

Taking advantage of this moment, the ordinary archers of the Allied army strode up, opened their bows and released arrows one after another, and there was an overwhelming rain of arrows, and the signs on the suppressed city walls could not raise their heads.

Immediately, the attack and defense of the south gate became one-sided, and the Allied army resounded with cheers one after another.

Standing on the roof without mud, he was secretly happy in his heart, or this Lu Shi's method was strong, only this time. The ones who were beaten were caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties. If these rounds come down, the rice fat will have no successor, there is no defense, when the sign is lost, do not stick to the mud to launch a strong bury ditch, one fell swoop siege, that is really twice the result with half the effort, this rice fat is in their own pocket, the mountain of money and grain will be at their own discretion.

With last night's turmoil, I almost made a camp roar, and I regretted my method of driving the old and weak to the city without mud, and I also figured out that attacking the county town is different from attacking the fortress, not to mention that there is a western city compared to it, and it should not be blatantly done like this, so I also listened to Lu Shi's opinion, and decided overnight that according to Lu Shi's style of play, I would rectify the strength overnight, allocate equipment, and prepare for a battle in the morning.

These sturdies, who were rectified overnight, knew that they would no longer use their fathers to fill the ditches today, so they had no burden and pressure in their hearts, and they had to be assured by Lu Shi that they would use the new siege method, and they began to be full of confidence at the moment.

Originally, when you become a pole, you have to have the consciousness of dying at any time, but no one will complain if you die like this.

After a burst of cheers, the head of Mizhi City became deathly silent, with such an unequal shooting, everyone also knew that their side was not an opponent at all, so they all curled up in a ball, tightly curled up in the dead corner of the female wall, waiting for the thief's powerful arrow rain to end.

Seeing that it was only a waste of his precious arrows to shoot any longer, the small flag was waved, and the herald struck again and ordered the herald to stop shooting, so the archers withdrew from the bow and arrow shooting and stood by.

Where they just shot at each other, yesterday's and today's, as far as the eye could see, there were patches of feathered arrow wasteland that could barely be seen, and they called their own soldiers without touching the mud, and ordered the old and weak women and children to go out into battle to collect the arrows shot from the city under the city walls.

The arrows densely planted on the ground on the battlefield are as dense as thatch on the field, and there are 50,000 or 70,000 if not 100,000, which is a rare treasure for the cottage. Most of these cottages do not have the workshop and ability to make bows and arrows, and the production of arrows is not a simple matter, these things are obtained by the battlefield, and too many arrows have been consumed in the two days of battle, and his family has almost been exhausted.

The old rule, the old and weak women and children go to the battlefield to snatch arrows, every ten for a piece of cake, this reward is quite tempting for those old and weak women and children, each cottage has little food, even those soldiers are hungry and full, let alone them, a full meal is an unattainable existence, even if it is worth risking their lives.

The defenders of the city also knew the consequences of these arrows being snatched by the enemy, so they would continue to fire arrows to stop them. Therefore, every time you collect arrows, there will be a certain number of casualties, and it is okay to die, but the result of the injury is the same for the rogue pole who lacks medical treatment, but it is just one step earlier and one step later.

But after Lu Shi came up with a method of soaking the quilt, it was a great benefit. Everyone wore water-soaked cotton clothes and quilts, and when they went up at one time, only a few unlucky people were accidentally shot in the thighs, and the others were not injured. Therefore, now it is no longer a chore to snatch arrows on the battlefield, but it has become a good errand in exchange for a full meal, not to mention the dense arrow wasteland under the city today, which is almost difficult to land, must have gained a lot.

Waiting for the order of the big boss, men, women and children all jumped on the quilts soaked in water on their heads with cheers. As soon as the defenders of the city saw it, they immediately opened their bows and released arrows, but immediately attracted a blow from the longbow under the city, not only could not prevent the thieves from snatching the arrows, but instead attracted unnecessary casualties on their own side, and those arrows could only add some results to the city, and had no practical effect on those flowery quilts, so they slowly stopped shooting, and watched those thieves carry the arrows back in bundles, but they cried out in vain.

This operation is a bumper harvest for those who are old and weak, some of them have made two or three trips, and there are more than a dozen flatbreads in exchange, so that they or their families can eat a few meals to their heart's content, and they all enjoy this rare satisfaction with a smile on their faces, and behind the satisfaction is the gratitude to the white-shirted military division.

Looking at the mountains of arrows and knives and guns, he was very proud of not getting muddy, and with these nearly 100,000 arrows, his strength was even stronger.

After the battlefield was cleaned, the mud waved the red flag in his hand again, a tight war drum sounded, and in the cheers of tens of thousands of allied troops, more than ten quilt dragons rushed out of the big array, and slipped out between the big array and the moat.

There was another shouting on this side, and immediately hundreds of poles and pickaxes wielded shovels and picks, and then quickly began the work of filling the moat according to Lu Shi's assembly line method.

It wasn't Lu Shi's kind of big bread and white meat that was stimulated a few times, but here it was the stick and leather whip of the Warlords, but no matter what the method was, the result was one, the progress was rapid, and before those defenders could react, the moat was half filled.

This speed frightened the commander of the city at that time, the pawnshop owner, the deputy of the guard, with several layers of shields set up by his own soldiers, lying on the gap in the city wall and looking out, it was really a dead soul, if at this speed, not noon, then the moat would no longer be an obstacle to the attack of the thieves, and he was helpless here.

You let this Xue shopkeeper do business, that is a top ten, but to say that let him command thousands of troops and horses to fight, it is simply to catch ducks on the shelves, it is even more difficult, at this time I have long run out of ideas, and shouted at the moment: "Hurry, hurry, hurry up and send someone to find a thousand households to get the charter." ”

"Yes." A pro-soldier covered his helmet and went down to the city to find thousands of households. Leave this Xue Qianhu here to jump here.

Huan, who was jumping and jumping, didn't want the whereabouts of this group of people to be seen by the pole under the city, and when he saw that the protection was a big official, he didn't wait for the order not to get dirty, and immediately a small leader shouted a group of longbowmen, and there was a burst of intensive shooting at this Xue Qianhu, and for a while the long arrows came with a screaming pavement, hitting the layers of shields like hail, and Xue Qianhu shrank under the female wall as soon as he rolled over, but those pro-soldiers were not so lucky, and more than a dozen people were killed and injured at that time.

Xue Qianhu, who had to escape the catastrophe, looked at the soldiers who were pierced by the thickness of his thumb and died, but kept chanting the Buddha, hoping that Lord Qianhu would come up and call the shots quickly, so that he could end this frightened day, where would he dare to stand up and command the signing of the Ding resistance pole to fill the trench?

But thinking about it is not a solution, he is originally a hereditary deputy thousand households, fighting? That's all grandpa's skills, where can a person like himself who has been peaceful for a hundred years do it? But in the war, as a general, you have to go to the city to guard, otherwise a retreat is a knife down and a clean death.

Take your eyes and look at the section of the city wall on the left, just a burst of mutual shooting, and now the dead and wounded soldiers who have fallen to the ground, now no master dares to come to the city to clean up, just lying all over the city, this hell-like scene is indeed something that I don't have and dare not imagine.

Suddenly, his eyes rolled, and he saw that his family members were holding big shields to block the left and right, covering themselves tightly, and quietly touched a long arrow beside him, gritted his teeth, and thrust it into his thigh, and the severe pain made him can't help but let out a miserable scream, and the sweat on his forehead was raining down.

This scream alarmed the pro-soldiers around him, the head of the pro-soldiers, now the pawnshop's nursing home, turned around, looked at his own general in surprise, but immediately understood the reason, and shouted at the moment: "Oh no, the deputy Qianhu is injured, hurry up and carry the adult down for treatment." ”

This shout immediately alarmed everyone in the city, and they all looked around, only to see that Deputy Qianhu had been hit by an arrow in his thigh, and he was being raised by his own soldiers in blood, sweating in pain.

But the master of the thousand households was also stiff, standing on one leg, but he wanted to push away his own soldiers and shouted: "Leave me alone, hurry up and defend, quickly, quickly." ”

But which of those pro-soldiers can comply? Shouting and screaming, he carried the thousand households straight to the city, and the shouts of the thousands of households asking for a death battle could be heard in the distance.

Moved, really moved the whole city.
