Chapter 026: The First Battle
The battle seemed to be even more tragic than Madu had expected, and there were a dense number of arrows stuck behind the walls, which were only shot from flying over the walls, and those that were shot on the walls did not know how many.
Stone balls weighing 100 pounds were scattered among them, smashing the arrows that were stuck on the ground. I didn't expect Chen Youliang to use a trebuchet, too, he could afford this kind of manpower-consuming thing.
Looking at the weight of the stone projectile, you know that the trebuchet of the Han army is not very big, but the power is definitely not small, if it is touched by the stone projectile, I am afraid that it will break the bones and tendons, and even Da Luo Jinxian can't save it.
Along the road to the city wall, there were more arrows on the wall, the matchstick seemed to be covered with a thick layer, and on one side of the city wall there were many corpses, full of arrows, like hedgehogs, as for those who were hit by trebuchets were even more miserable, the whole body was twisted, not like a human form.
The other soldiers were weak one by one, leaning against the wall, drinking water or eating dry food, and all of them were more or less stuck with arrows, and Madu walked all the way, but he did not see a few uninjured.
At the beginning, they were all injured, how can this fight continue, he roughly counted, and there seemed to be only more than a thousand people on the city wall. Zhu Wenzheng gave Deng Yu 3,000 people, plus the 1,000 people in his headquarters, there should be 4,000 people.
"The number of people is wrong!" Madu muttered quietly.
Someone next to him said, "Who will pull everyone up and wait for the arrow?" It's just people who can shoot arrows, and everyone else is in the cave under the castle tower. ”
Ma Du looked up and saw that there was a silver-armored young general in front of him, not Zhu Wenying, but he saw that there were several arrows on his chest, the shaft of the arrow had been broken, and there were several small holes, which should have been pulled out after being shot by the arrow.
"You're hurt?" Madu was surprised.
Zhu Wenying patted Ma Du on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You came quite quickly, hurry up and treat these guys." I'm going to get the soldiers below to come over and take a shift. "Ran away without a trace, Ma Du was surprised, Zhu Xiaoqiang, he took so many arrows and it seemed like no one was fine.
Madu instructed the auxiliaries and doctors to begin to treat the soldiers, and those who were lightly wounded were treated on the spot, and those who were seriously injured were carried back to the camp for treatment. He took the time to take a look at the city, the arrows under the city did not need to be less in the city at all, and the dense arrow feathers were white flowers, just like the appearance of the willow catkins flying a few days ago.
Stretching fifty paces from the city wall, there were densely packed corpses, blood flowing, and almost next to each corpse was a large sack, scattered with damp soil.
The original wide moat had now been filled in, and Madu could clearly see the hands, feet, or heads that had not been completely buried, and some places were still bubbling with blood and fresh soil, and he didn't know whether the moat was filled with mud or corpses.
In this era of extremely high mortality rate, from a baby to a sturdy man, I don't know how much care and hardship my parents have paid, and how much hope I have for my family, but I have lost my life in a hurry and buried my bones here, which makes people feel sad.
Heroes emerge in troubled times, such as the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, and the end of the Sui Dynasty, which are all hero-like eras, which can be described as star-studded and shining through the ages. But who is not a general success, why should the exploits of the big man be written by the blood and suffering of the small people, Ma Du was a little angry.
"Hey, what are you doing?" A hand shook in front of Ma Du's eyes, "Are you Chen Youliang have a grudge, the way you look at that big ship is so terrifying." Zhu Wenying pointed to the luxurious giant ship in the lake.
Ma Du opened Zhu Wenying's hand, "It's okay, don't disturb my work!" ”
"I'll do the work first!" Zhu Wenying pointed to the arrow in front of him.
"Good!" Madu took the tools and was going to dismantle the armor from his body.
"Why bother!" Zhu Wenying swished and pulled out a few arrows on his body, and took off his armor in three or five clicks.
Ma Du realized that although there were many arrows on his body, there were only two or three that really hurt him, and they did not penetrate the flesh, and most of the arrows did not even penetrate the armor. It seems that the lethality of ancient bows and arrows is not very good, no wonder there is a saying that one sword is worth three arrows.
Ma Du touched his armor, which was indeed much heavier than Zhang Wuliu's iron belly pocket, "Your armor has good protection!" ”
"That's it! This is what Brother Donkey used to wear, and I used it. If you like it, I'll get you a set when it comes to Yingtian. ”
Ma Du hurriedly waved his hand, "I can wear cloth armor for a profession like me to hide behind and add blood, and you don't want to rely on thick blood to come nonsense, beware of encountering a big move to kill you in seconds, I don't have the ability to resurrect you." ”
"Oh." Zhu Wenying responded, although she didn't understand some terms, she could understand the general meaning.
"They didn't kick the city today?" Madu treated his wounds and asked about the battle.
"They had to be able to pedal up, too, and they were filling in the trenches all morning. In the end, we still suffered from the lack of people, and the arrow on the tower of the city never stopped, as if it was raining. Ouch, you're lighter, it hurts to death. ”
"Cut, when you pulled out the arrow just now, weren't you quite a bachelor, what are you calling at this time, if I pulled out the arrow for you, the wound wouldn't have opened so big at all. I think almost all of the people who participated in the battle today were injured, how should this battle be fought in the future? ”
"The following battle is easy to fight, and it will be more bloody and cruel to say that it is difficult to fight, as long as it is well arranged, tens of thousands of Chen Youliang will be consumed at Fuzhou Gate. It is estimated that they will be attached to the siege of the city, at least there will be no arrows and stones in the sky. ”
"Sounds like you're very experienced defensively."
Zhu Wenying shook his head, "No, listen to what Brother Bao'er said, back then, my father in Hezhou only brought 10,000 people to withstand the attack of more than 100,000 people in the imperial court." ”
"Oh, and that like that?" Ma Du didn't expect that Lao Zhu could not only fight under his hands, but also himself. That's right, if you don't have any real skills, why should you serve the public.
"There are many things like this, let me tell you......" Zhu Wenying gushed endlessly about Lao Zhu's wisdom and martial arts, and in his mouth, Lao Zhu seemed to have surpassed everything and become a god-like man.
Brain-dead fans sing the praises of idols, naturally it is disgusting, Ma Du is left ear in and right ear out, Quan Dang didn't hear it, and finally simply changed the topic, "You killed someone today?" ”
The brain-dead fan was stunned for a moment, and sighed: "Killed!" I've been shooting arrows, I've been shooting arrows, I've used a one-stone bow, and almost every arrow has someone falling to the ground, and I don't know how many arrows I've shot until I'm so tired that I can't lift my arms anymore! Later, Marshal Deng saw that everyone couldn't hold on, and the Han army took a flying ladder to attack the city, so he used a thunderbolt, this thunderbolt is really fucking good, I threw down a good one, and put down several, and the scene of dozens of thunderbolts exploding together was shocking, and the arms and thighs flew everywhere, not to mention the Han army, but their own soldiers were a little stunned......"
Zhu Wenying's mood changed faster than the second goods, and the compassion on her face at the beginning quickly disappeared, replaced by excitement on her face, as if she had to talk endlessly, and the spit was sprayed on Ma Du's face.
Damn, killing talent is killing talent, bloodlust is their instinct, blood can stir their nerves, no matter which one it is!
