Chapter 141 - Your Majesty, Do You Believe It?
Everyone has only one reaction at the moment, and that is damn it, being ambushed!
It's no wonder that these soldiers are timid, anyone who is targeted by so many crossbowmen will feel a shock to the tiger's body, and they can't wait to find a hole in the ground to hide, not to mention that these crossbowmen are still standing on the city wall, and the weapons in their hands can't reach people at all, and they will die in vain.
The worst thing is that behind these crossbowmen, there are many crossbow carts, and the arrows the size of human heads are facing the people under the city, emitting a cold light, which makes people shudder.
This doesn't let people live, even if it's a bow and crossbow, it's normal for the two armies to fight, and it's normal to be killed by bows and arrows and crossbows, but this crossbow is too much, is this what is going on? Is it to whip the corpse?
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."Li Maozhen's feet were a little weak, looking at Zhao Fan's eyes were shocked and frightened, and he hurriedly rode away from the horse, for fear that the archers in the city would shoot him.
"Your Majesty, if the minister said that the minister just came to see Your Majesty, does Your Majesty believe it?" Li Maozhen looked at Zhao Fan in the city with some embarrassment, and said curtly.
"Guess what?" Zhao Fan glanced at Li Maozhen playfully, and his tone was full of amusement.
"Your Majesty, how did you guess that the minister would come?"
Zhao Fan looked at Li Maozhen's army that was constantly retreating under the city, and sneered lightly, do you really think I'm stupid, and you still want to delay me and treat me as a negative boss who talks nonsense? A lot of verbosity, and then someone will kill you?
Sorry, it's impossible!
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Woohoo!"
With Zhao Fan's order, the crossbowmen at the head of the city did not hesitate to release the bowstring, pulled the trigger, and instantly thousands of feather arrows flew towards the enemy troops under the city with a thunderous sound.
For a while, there were countless screams from Li Maozhen's army under the city, especially the cavalry who rushed in front, and even dozens of arrows were hit by people and horses, and they immediately fell to the ground, and they were about to die.
The pontoon bridge built by Li Maozhen's army in a hurry was also warmly received by the ballista at the first time, and countless giant arrows flew towards the pontoon, and for a time sawdust flew in all directions, and the pontoon bridge was immediately broken into several sections, ending his glorious mission.
Seeing this, Li Maozhen hurriedly sent people to continue to build the pontoon bridge, but the soldiers who built the pontoon bridge were also taken care of by the Mandate of Heaven.
After folding a few more groups of soldiers, no one was willing to risk death anymore, even if Li Maozhen put a knife on the necks of those big-headed soldiers, no one dared to go.
The power of the bed crossbow is so amazing that once it is shot, it can't even leave a whole corpse, and the soldiers would rather be killed by Li Maozhen than continue to step forward to build a pontoon bridge.
Li Maozhen had no choice but to give up, and could only watch the soldiers on the other side of the moat constantly being shot down by the feather arrows of the Heavenly Mandate Army and unable to do anything.
The soldiers of Li Maozhen's army under the city saw that the pontoon bridge was destroyed, and they were completely desperate, and the city was pouring feather arrows at them without stopping, constantly taking their lives, but they did not have the slightest power to fight back.
Zhao Fan looked at the corpses all over the city, and countless soldiers were hit by several arrows, but they couldn't die for a while, so they could only keep screaming for a while, and couldn't help frowning slightly, and a trace of unbearable flashed in his heart.
"Your Majesty, don't be merciful, the two armies are fighting, either you die or I die, if it weren't for Your Majesty's foresight and ambush today, then what is lying on the ground now is the soldiers of the Mandate of Heaven, that is, the thousands of innocent people in Shaanzhou City, you and me, Your Majesty, do you understand?"
Qiao Xinchao saw a trace of hesitation on Zhao Fan's face, and couldn't help patting Zhao Fan's shoulder, soothing him softly, and silently thought in his heart, Your Majesty is good at everything, but sometimes it is too kind to a woman, how can you be so soft-hearted as a monarch...
Zhao Fan was startled, and instantly sobered up, and said coldly to Zhao Wei beside him, "Continue to release arrows for me, everyone will attack freely, and wipe out all the rebels under the city!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, the soldiers continue to fire arrows and kill all the rebels!" Zhao Wei nodded and yelled at the soldiers beside him.
"Yes!" When the soldiers heard this, their spirits were shocked, and they responded loudly, and the speed at which they pulled the bow and string in their hands became faster and faster.
"Dog Emperor, dare to do this!"
Li Maozhen watched his soldiers being killed one by one, and his eyes were suddenly split, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only grit his teeth and glared at Zhao Fan on the city tower.
"Brothers, aim for me at the guy who talks a lot, and whoever shoots him will be promoted to the third rank and rewarded with a thousand taels." Zhao Fan didn't say much, just pointed at Li Maozhen from a distance and said coldly.
"No!"
The soldiers were agitated when they heard this, and they all became red-faced, and even Zhao Wei was quite moved, a thousand taels of gold, how much is that, even if Zhao Wei's family is considered to be a prominent family, but after all, it is the family's money, not his own money!
When Li Maozhen heard this, his face changed sharply, an old face was like a pig's liver, and he pointed at Zhao Fan at the head of the city, but he had nothing to say.
And Wang Xingyu and Yang Shouliang also did the same, for fear of being shot by the crossbow cart at the head of the city, they hurriedly drove their horses into the distance, eager to grow wings and fly away.
When the soldiers below saw that the commander was gone, they immediately followed the rear army and marched forward, and they all ran away in the direction they came.
Zhao Wei looked at Li Maozhen's fleeing back, put down the longbow in his hand with some disappointment, and lamented that a thousand taels of gold flew with wings like this.
And the soldiers under the city have also died at this moment, there is no longer a standing creature in the entire city, the corpses are all over the blood, and for a time the city of Shaanzhou is filled with a strong smell of blood, which makes people want to be disgusted.
"Your Majesty, it's almost here anymore, I don't think these three guys have the courage to come again tonight, Your Majesty will go back and rest first, there will be an end here." Zhao Wei frowned and lightly slapped his hand, trying to dispel the smell of blood on the tip of his nose.
"It's okay, General Zhao, you arrange for everyone to clean up the battlefield, burn the corpses under the city, and sprinkle lime powder, don't attract the plague." Zhao Fan nodded and said softly.
He was indeed a little sleepy, and the smell of blood was really uncomfortable.
"The Last Will Do Duty"
Pestilence? Zhao Wei nodded a little inexplicably, he didn't quite understand what this corpse had to do with the plague, but whatever Zhao Fan said, he just did it, and he didn't need to think too much.
