Chapter 516 There is no way out

The nail was put down again and again, and when it was lifted, the broken flesh and blood hanging on the one-foot-long wolf tooth nail fell down uncontrollably. The corpses of the stone wall had been piled up half a meter high, and the ground beneath the corpses seemed to have been so full of blood that the blood no longer penetrated but gathered into a stream and flowed lower.

In one hour, at least a thousand corpses had been laid under the stone wall just 100 meters long, both from the Mengyuan people and the soldiers of the Black Flag Army.

A soldier of the Black Flag Army who was hit by an arrow did not stabilize his body and fell off the wall, and landed on the thick pile of corpses without immediately dying, but before he could stand up, a dozen wolf cavalry roared and surrounded him, and more than a dozen scimitars kept falling, and soon the Black Flag soldier turned into a puddle of flesh.

When the scimitar fell and was raised, blood, pieces of internal organs, and bone slag were thrown into the air. Under the sun, the blood reflects a dazzling color.

"I--you ancestors!"

The Black Flag soldier on the stone wall roared angrily, and put down the nail slap again, and the heavy nail slammed into the crowd besieging the Black Flag soldier, and at least four wolf cavalry were knocked over, and the nail pierced the leather armor on their bodies, leaving more than one blood hole in each of them.

The wounds caused by the dense nails were particularly terrifying, and even those who did not die on the spot could no longer see any hope of life.

The shouts and wails continued to disperse over the canyon, and the beasts and birds of the mountain jungle were frightened and scattered in all directions. The strong bloody aura provoked several fierce beasts to stand on the top of the cliff and look down, but they were frightened by the scene of flesh and blood flying below. At some point, man is more fierce than a beast.

The battle was unprecedentedly fierce, and the Mengyuan people did not stop attacking after losing a thousand people. The second team of 1,000 shouted, clearing the corpses from the road and trying to push a battering ram closer. The battering ram was very rudimentary, but it seemed that the giant wood that the two of them were hugging together was heavy enough that if it swung up and hit the door, the only gate in the stone wall would not be able to withstand the impact.

"Ballista!"

When Xiahou Baichuan saw the battering ram, he shouted loudly in a hoarse voice: "All the ballistas, dismantle the battering ram for me!" ”

The soldiers of the Black Flag Army operating the ballistas on the city walls had almost changed, and most of the first group had been killed by random arrows. But they killed more enemies before they died, and when the war began, the pre-war tension and fear had disappeared, and all that remained was a determination and revenge that could not let go of the enemy.

On the Mandu Banner grassland, the soldiers of the Great Sui had no way to return home.

Today, these soldiers of the Black Flag Army are doing what the Mengyuan people did back then, so that those barbarians can't go back to their homes!

After adjusting the direction, the soldiers operating the ballista loaded the heavy crossbow into it, twisted the coil rope hard and then let go violently, and the heavy crossbow flew straight out and put down a piece of the wolf cavalry pushing the battering ram, and the first time there was no attack on the battering ram, the soldiers immediately adjusted the direction again.

The second round of heavy crossbows roared out again, a heavy crossbow coincidentally hit the iron chain hanging on the giant tree, when a sound stirred up a spark, the iron chain was broken, the giant tree fell down and hit the pedestal, the pedestal was smashed with a click, the wolf cavalry of the two carts was smashed underneath, one was squeezed out of the head, the red blood and the white ** were squeezed out of the deflated leather helmet, and the tofu brain mixed with soy sauce fell down like a tick.

The other soldier was pressed down at the waist, his intestines were squeezed out, but he did not die for a while, and he howled bitterly for his comrades to save him, and one of the wolf cavalrymen beside him could not stand it, and stabbed him in the heart with a knife.

The battering ram was scrapped and blocked the road behind, Zhe Libei loudly ordered the soldiers to move the broken battering ram away, and the archers of the Black Flag Army, who saw the opportunity, immediately poured a rain of arrows, and the wolf cavalry near the battering ram fell down like weeds hit by hailstones.

An hour and a half later, more than half of the 500 soldiers of the Black Flag Army on the stone wall had been lost, and 100 soldiers from the two teams of the reserve had been replaced, while the wolf cavalry, which was not suitable for siege warfare, had lost more than 1,500 people, and the loss figure of 1 to 7 was enough to show the ferocity of the wolf cavalry. Although they are not accustomed to this kind of fighting with both feet running and climbing with both hands, their natural ruthlessness makes them not flinch.

"Drop the rocket!"

Xiahou Baichuan's voice had already shouted to the point that he could barely make a sound: "Force them back, the people in front go down to rest, and the people in the reserve team will come up to Lao Tzu!" ”

As his order was given, the archers of the Black Flag Army lit the feathered arrows wrapped in oilcloth that had been prepared long ago and shot them out, one after another, and after a few minutes, the queue of wolf cavalry began to be chaotic, many wolf cavalry were hit by arrows, and the flames appeared scattered at first, and finally began to spread into a ball of fire.

Because there are mostly bare cliffs on both sides of the canyon, Xiahou Baichuan can rest assured that people can shoot rockets without worrying about causing mountain fires.

The wolf cavalry didn't notice it, and neither did Zhe Crack, the reason why those rockets ignited when they hit the ground was because black oil was poured on many places in the canyon, although most of the fire oil was trampled by the wolf cavalry and stuck to their boots, but it didn't stop the flames from burning.

The fire rose more than two meters, and hundreds of wolf cavalry who had no time to retreat were engulfed in the sea of fire. The soldiers in the back were forced back by the fire, and many of them had their beards and eyebrows burned. The soldiers of the Black Flag Army standing on the stone wall felt the heat wave rushing towards their faces, and many of them sat on the ground in exhaustion, gasping for breath. The light of the fire reddened their faces and illuminated their eyes.

Tired, but so resolute.

The men of the reserve rushed up and replaced the exhausted soldiers.

This fire won't burn for long, and perhaps the second attack of the enemy will be even more ferocious in half an hour.

"Replenish the feather arrows and debug the ballista!"

Xiahou Baichuan leaned against the battlements of the stone wall and gasped for breath, and the soldiers of the reserve carried bundles of feather arrows to the stone wall, and then filled the quiver pots of all the archers. The soldiers who had been replaced sat down in the canyon on the west side of the city wall, and their faces were strangely calm.

Fang Xie looked at the soldiers, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Bring the wine!" ”

……

……

In less than an hour, the flames in the canyon were gradually extinguished, and the ground was littered with charred corpses, emitting a foul smell. There were a few hungry vultures hovering in the sky all the time, as if trying to fly down and peck at the corpses. Either he was afraid of the remnant fire, or he was afraid of the killing intent of the humans below, so he didn't immediately swoop.

The wolf cavalry sat on the ground, looking up at the sky, waiting for the vultures to come down. For them, it is not a shame for the corpse to be pecked by an eagle, but something to be proud of. Mengyuan's custom was to put the corpse in a specific place after death and let the eagle vulture eat it.

But the Han people did not have such a custom, and the Han people considered it disrespectful to the dead to eat the corpses of wild beasts and birds of prey, so some people pulled their bows and shot arrows into the sky, but they did not hit. The frightened vulture let out a few cries in the sky, but it was brave enough not to leave. The feathered arrow fell precariously, looking a little lonely.

The interval of an hour passed quickly, especially when the wolf cavalry was driven to stand up by the centurions and thousands, and their faces were a little dull.

The tragedy of the first battle was far beyond their imagination, and they had been enslaving the Han people for more than three years, and they had become accustomed to facing everything with the attitude of a victor, but now, they found that the attitude of a victor could no longer bring them victory, and they had to fight for it desperately, which was something that had not happened for a long, long time.

If the war had not stopped for an hour, and the wolf cavalry had been rushing and killing, perhaps the mentality would not have changed. But this hour is enough for them to think about a lot of things.

Zhe Libei looked at the morale of the soldiers who were a little low, and anger erupted in his eyes.

"What are you doing?!"

Zhebibe shouted, "You are the people of the Immortal Heaven, the descendants of the wolf god. Hundreds of years ago, under the leadership of the great Golden Family, your ancestors swept across the grasslands with their scimitars. At that time, the enemies faced by the ancestors were a hundred times and a thousand times stronger than these Han people, and the fierceness and cruelty of the demon's subordinates could not frighten the descendants of the wolf god. The ancestors could even defeat demons, and you! What kind of face do you have to claim to be the descendants of the wolf god! ”

Zhe Split said angrily: "If they see you like this, they will bow their heads in shame! ”

"The head of the Mengyuan warrior will never bow down towards the enemy! The war has only just begun, and you have already become cowards, what do you say to your wives when you return home? Did we flee back? Or do you return in glory after killing all the enemies?! ”

The wolf cavalry looked up at the stone wall.

"Kill them all!"

Zhe Crack Bean shouted.

"Phew!"

This time, the response was not intense. The wolf cavalry all knew that in fact, Zhe Split Farewell had a wrong sentence just now, where did they have a chance to escape, that stone wall...... Why so high.

Just as Zhe Split Farewell was about to continue the attack with the rest of the men, Koktai Menglie's own soldiers came over violently, and the escort led by him pointed at Zhe Split Farewell and said: "You are no longer a Centurion, the secret service has demoted you to a centurion, take your cowards and go back to the back." ”

"No!"

Zhe Crack's face changed greatly: "I want to see the special service, please give me another chance!" My people are not cowards, I will personally lead people to rush again! ”

The guard sneered, "You and your people have lost the face of the Mengyuan Empire, and the secret service is extremely disappointed in you. The next thing has been handed over to the special service, and you don't have a chance. ”

Zhebie saw that Farewell Tie'er had already led someone up behind him, and Farewell Tie'er's eyes were full of disdain when he looked at him.

"No!"

Zhe Ribei drew his scimitar: "Go back and tell the secret service, if I can't break through the stone wall this time, I will apologize with death!" Not only me, but my people will do the same to defend the dignity of the warriors! ”

"I'll give you another chance!"

In the distance, there was the voice of Koktai Menglie, who had changed into a war horse, and pointed at Zhe Chuan with his horsewhip: "Last chance, if you can't break through the stone wall, even if you end your own life, your family will be disgraced because of you!" ”

"Xie Te Qin!"

Zhe Split's eyes were bloodshot, he took off the leather armor on his body, and struck his chest with a scimitar: "Wolf cubs, do you all hear me! You are all warriors, do you deserve a humiliating death or a glorious death? ”

He took the scimitar in his mouth, reached out and grabbed the side of the ladder and lifted it: "Kill!" ”

"Phew!"

This time the shouts were louder than before, because these wolf cavalry knew that this time ...... There really is no way back.

In front is the stone wall of the Han people, and in the back, is their dignity.
