Chapter 18 General Su Liang

Yun Lang guessed wrong, and at dawn the next day, the spring rain still did not stop, but fell heavier and heavier.

The soldiers of the cavalry lieutenant are very busy, but the busiest is the firehead army, from dawn, they keep making all kinds of food, even if there are soldiers to help, the cavalry lieutenant's army has a unique thirty large iron pots are not half idle, the cage drawers are stacked high, whenever a basket of steamed buns is steamed, there will be another basket of steamed buns will be put on the steamer immediately.

The world is full of people who make steamed buns, and Yunlang is no exception.

These buns were customized by Su Jianjun in the Beidaying camp, and in order to satisfy the appetite of five hundred biao-shaped men, Yun Lang had been busy for an hour and a half with seven hundred Changmen palace guards.

As long as the food in the army tastes good and is big enough, it can win everyone's favor, so as soon as these horse meat buns came out of the cage, most of them were consumed by the cavalry lieutenant's own people.

As for the war, it has been since last night, and Hu Qizhi is really right in saying one sentence, they are the death squads and cannon fodder of the Han army.

Yun Lang just glanced at it when it was almost dawn and came back, but Huo Quzhi took those young people to watch it with fascination.

In fact, there is nothing special, the jurisdiction first relied on the condescending advantage of the military village, tied a lot of huge hayballs, which were covered with butter, sheep fat and other things, and then pushed down from the high slope after ignition, dozens of hay balls with a diameter of one meter jumped down the hill with thick smoke, and went straight to the Lei Jun Zhai.

The big fireball hit the antlers and was torn to pieces, and the big fireballs suddenly turned into countless small fireballs, which drilled into the cracks of the antlers, and sparks fell to the ground, and finally turned into countless small fires that burned brightly.

Two hundred dismounted Hu men raised their shields and shouted, and with a shout, they ran along ladders where the fireball had fallen.

Those fires became the best guiding lights......

Yun Lang sighed and turned around, Huo Quzhi also sighed, but his eyes widened at the Hu people who were standing in the bright light and attacking the darkness.

"Boom", the dark city suddenly burst out of a large area of light, and then countless longbows were exposed to the firelight, a rain of arrows flew into the air, mixed with the rain fell together, the first wave of feather arrows just landed and the second feather arrows flew into the sky again, so three times, the archers disappeared again, and the light on the city was extinguished.

The rain of arrows was dense, and they fell to the ground with a roar, on the shield, or on the body of a person, and there were suddenly continuous screams on the battlefield.

The two hundred Hu people were shrouded in the rain of arrows, but surprisingly not too many people died, and when Yun Lang turned his head, he found that there were more than 100 Hu people who ran back, and there were only forty or fifty Hu people left on the charging road.

"They're here to get the ladder up."

Huo Quzhi looked at the gradually extinguishing flame and said lightly.

"So many people are going to die if you send some ladders up?" Yun Lang didn't understand it very much.

"The place where the ladders are placed is calculated in advance, you may not know, these ladders are not used to climb the wall, but to build the first fortress, you see, the fire is about to be extinguished, and there will be armor soldiers soon."

Huo Quzhi seemed to have entered a state of war, and his words were cold.

At this time, it was the darkest time before dawn, and the sonorous footsteps of the armor warrior were heard far away in the darkness, Yun Lang couldn't see where the armor came from, and looked at Huo Quai's illness with some admiration.

For war, he is far less familiar with it than Huo Quzhi.

"Just now, when those Hu cavalry walked over, they had cleared a lot of obstacles, and also left road signs that only those Hu people themselves could see, these armor soldiers went over in order to use the giant shield and those ladders to build the first charge position, and prepare for the big battle after dawn."

Huo Quzhi said very loudly, it seems that this guy is not only explaining to Yun Lang, but also to the rest of his subordinates.

The torches at the head of the city were lit up again, and the archers, still the archers, fired feathered arrows at the city again, but this time all the rockets fell to the ground, and each rocket was like an inextinguishable candle, and the city was instantly bright.

A scattered group of armor warriors were exposed to the firelight, fearless, still holding their shields and approaching the city with heavy steps.

There was a "snort", and a soldier suddenly flew up in the air, but not forward, but backward, and landed heavily in the middle of the rocket, Yun Lang saw clearly that there was a thick crossbow arrow stuck in the guy's chest.

The sound of "snorting" was endless, and there were constantly armorers who were shot to death or taken away part of their bodies by crossbow arrows, as long as they were not taken care of by the crossbow arrows, those armorers still charged forward firmly, and soon came to the place where Hu Qi died and was injured.

Yun Lang saw very clearly, those armor soldiers actually piled up the dead Hu Qi corpses into a pile quickly, forming a chest-high human wall, some Hu Qi was obviously not dead, hands and feet were still waving, and they were still thrown on the pile by those armor soldiers, and next to this gambling wall, those ladders were erected high.

A bunch of things tied to the top of the ladder slid down quickly, and a dozen ladders did the same thing, and when those things fell, the ladder covered with a layer of things became a high wall, although it was easily penetrated by crossbow arrows, the armor soldiers ignored it, connected the ladder with some iron hooks, opened the supporting legs behind the ladder, and let the ladder stand firmly in place.

Several samurai, who were not wearing iron armor, quickly climbed the ladder and hung the shield handed by the armor warrior behind the ladder, so that the curtain wall composed of ladders quickly became much stronger.

"It's decent, there are not many surprises in the attacks of these Hu people, and there are no major omissions, but I didn't expect that even the siege battles of the Hu people have become so familiar, which is really surprising."

"I think I learned this from the Han army, right?" Yun Lang asked.

Huo Quzhi nodded: "Since they are all their own people, it is naturally not good to hide too much selfishness, and it is inevitable that there will be such a change, but the Hu people who have lost their horseback riding skills want to compete with the Han army in the siege battle, and they are still far away."

Look at it, it's time for their herd to go out, damn it, these bastards use horses! ”

As soon as Huo Quzhi's words fell, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came from the other side of the valley, and these war horses were blindfolded, and there was blood on their buttocks, it seemed that they had just been stabbed.

The frightened war horses rushed along the road, crashing into countless obstacles along the way, some of the war horses were hung by the antlers, neighing in pain, and some knocked away the antlers and continued to gallop forward, Yun Lang counted at will, at least seventy war horses were buried here in vain.

"What are they doing?" Yun Lang felt that his heart was bleeding.

"What? In order to clear the obstacles, but also to show momentum, tell the people in the city that they have the determination not to break the city and not to return it! ”

A thick middle-aged male voice came from behind, Yun Lang glanced at it, and found that he didn't know this armorer who didn't wear a helmet.

"I've seen Uncle Su when I'm sick!" Huo Quai's fists were saluted.

"General Su! There is no uncle of yours in the army, only the general Su Liang and the captain Huo Quai! ”

"Captain Huo Quai, I've seen General Su!"

The middle-aged man's chainsaw-like gaze swept over Yun Lang's body, and finally landed on Cao Xiang, who wanted to escape.

"When you see me, do you want to run away if you don't see me?"

Cao Xiang reluctantly stopped and arched his hand: "Captain Cao Xiang has seen General Su. ”

The guy surnamed Su ignored Cao Xiang and said to Huo Quzhi again: "I can withdraw from this competition at the last moment, and I am still a little self-aware."

A certain family has been waiting to see your flesh and blood for the past two days, but unfortunately I didn't see it, but I heard that you exchanged a camp for one hundred and twenty war horses, which surprised me a little.

Tell me, whose idea was it? ”

Yun Lang had no choice but to come out and salute and said, "Cavalry Captain Sima Yunlang has seen General Su!" ”

General Su looked Yun Lang up and down, pursed his lips and said to Huo Quai: "You can't think of this kind of businessman's anger, why, do you want to do business in front of the two armies?" ”

Huo Quzhi smiled bitterly: "The skills are not as good as people, and the strength is not as good as people, so I have to seek innovation and change, and find another way to achieve the goal." ”

General Su smiled: "Robbery is the best way to achieve the goal, if you can't even do robbery, the rest of the methods will not be very effective."

I'd love to know, and I'd love to see how you seek innovation and change to achieve your goals. ”

Yun Lang saw Huo Qubing looking at him, so he once again hugged his fists and said to General Su: "If the general can get us back those war horses that died on the battlefield, you can see how we started." ”
