20. Bone decision
"No hurry, wait a little longer!"
No matter how long the predatory tiger and leopard lurk, it is by no means a waste of time, but a one-hit kill at the moment of the outburst. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Yan Xing turned his eyes to the dock fort in the night and turned back, this time he sent Ma Lin to bring twenty people around the back of the dock fort to attack and set fire, although it was close to the appointed hour, there was no movement behind the dock fort, but Yan Xing was not as impatient as the guide surnamed Zhou, he believed that Ma Lin would not let him down.
At this time, Gan Ling also lowered his body and trotted over, he leaned over to Yan Xing's side and said:
"Chief, those beech trees are ready, and there is no signal from the black charcoal side, do you want me to take someone around to take a look?"
Yan Xing shook his head when he heard this, he looked at Gan Ling and said:
"It's too late even if you bring someone over now, the appointed hour hasn't come yet, wait a little longer!"
"Good!"
Gan Ling nodded, he turned around and wanted to leave, but Yan Xing suddenly stopped him.
"Wait a minute, you can hold this bone sword, you will be an archer later, this thing will be useful!"
Yan Xing took out the bone wrench finger seized from Chen Cang's unknown marksman, stretched out his hand and handed it to Gan Ling, after the defeat of Chen Cang's pursuit, everyone became prisoners, and the weapons that were used in the past were not damaged and were confiscated by the Han army, Yan Xing was a little better, Xu Kun, who captured him, at least reserved a little politeness to him, although he took away the weapons and maps on his body, but some inconsequential belongings were still returned to him.
Tonight's attack on the Dock Fort, Ganling's duty was to act as an archer as always, and although he changed from a horse archer to a foot archer, the importance of the task remained the same. The weapons and objects on his body in the past had been taken away when he was captured on the edge of the water, and Yan Xing was also a good shooter, of course he knew how important a good wrench was to an archer, so he gave that bone wrench to Gan Ling.
Gan Ling turned to meet Yan Xing's eyes, he reached out to catch the bone wrench, gently rubbed it on the palm of his hand, a smile bloomed on his thin face, he nodded, did not speak, and then turned to leave.
As soon as Gan Ling walked on his front foot, Xiao Kui, who was ambushed in front, followed with his hind foot. He glanced vigilantly at the guide beside Yan Xing before he hurriedly said:
"Chief, there seems to be movement behind the Dock Fort!"
Hearing this, Yan Xing refocused his gaze on the dock fort not far away, although the previous agreement was to raise the fire as a signal, but if the situation changed, his side should also be flexible according to the situation.
At this time, although the fire had not yet risen behind the dock fort, there had already begun to be an intermittent noise, sometimes clear and sometimes faint in the night wind, and the sound gradually tended to expand. Although I don't know if Ma Lin and the others have encountered any tricky things, it is also an opportunity for Yan Xing and the others to take advantage of the chaos now.
Yan Xing's pupils gradually dilated in the dark, and he immediately shouted:
"Do it!"
Hearing the order, the subordinates jumped up in an instant, according to the previous distribution, some of them carried the crashing wood, some carried the grid row, spears, bows and arrows in their hands, and some people held beech wood with branches at the front end, and followed Yan Xing, who was the first soldier, to rush out, and rushed straight to the dock fort not far away that began to fall into the night howling riot.
The guide surnamed Zhou was also carrying a long sword at this moment, but he did not rush over, but left behind with his original two men. He wanted to wait and see the battle situation, and the person who decided to stay would naturally not follow Yan Xing and his subordinates to die, and Yan Xing didn't care about his cowardly behavior of waiting and seeing, so he fell behind and rushed forward with his own men.
As soon as Yan Xing and the others, who had been dormant for a long time, launched it, they quickly rushed to the front of the gate of the dock fort like an arrow from the string. This kind of loud running at night naturally aroused the idea of the guards on the gatehouse, and the sound of the guard was soon sounded, and after the guards on the gatehouse who were frightened by the night attack reacted, some shouted and shot arrows at the people who charged at the periphery, some ran up and down to command, and some began to carry wood and stone, and the crowd on the gatehouse instantly became a little chaotic.
"Put the grate row!"
Everyone ignored the shouting and deterrence of the guards, and when they were in the ravine more than two zhang wide outside the adjacent dock fort, Yan Xing, who was running away with a long card on his head, shouted, and the six subordinates carrying the grid row behind hurriedly rushed to the edge of the ravine, and used the long vines tied to both sides of the grid row to erect the grid row, and then adjusted the direction and put it down heavily.
"Bang!" The heavy grates made a dull sound as they landed, raising a puff of smoke. Yan Xing once again rushed over with a long card on his head, and the other men with shields and bows and arrows also rushed through the ravine.
And with this grating row made of coarse timber, the men at the back who carried the battering hammer also passed through this ravine.
At this time, the guards of the dock fort on the gatehouse also began to shoot at the enemy who was coming quickly and had already rushed through the ravine, and they shot arrows at the first enemy in twos and threes, according to the defensive methods that had been trained by the guards in the past.
"Whoosh-"
Arrows flew over Yan Xing's head, some of them inserted into the flat ground in front of the dock fort, and some of them fell into the ranks behind.
A scream after being hit by an arrow sounded behind him, Yan Xing didn't look back, he still rushed forward with arrows, approaching the dead corner on the inside of the high wall of the dock fort.
He rushed to the forefront, aiming at him with the most arrows, the long card on his head kept ringing the sound of arrows piercing the wooden plank, Rao is Yan Xing's arm strength was outstanding, and he also felt that his arm was a little numb under the impact of the arrows, fortunately, the high wall of Wubao was not far from the surrounding ravines, and soon Yan Xing was the first to enter the dead corner of the high wall shooting, and the arrows around him were suddenly sparse.
Yan Xing untied the slinging belt that he had made improvised with vines and stones in the mountains during the day, and threw it diagonally in the direction of aim, and directly smashed into a dock fort tribe that leaned out from the wall and wanted to throw stones to attack him, the powerful stone smashed the head of the tribe, blood and brains splashed, and the corpse fell from the high wall and smashed into the open space outside the wall.
And just as Yan Xing was solving a dock fort part, more of his men rushed into the dead end of the shot, some of them threw short spears, some of them threw stone belts diagonally, although they did not kill or injure many dock guards, but they also succeeded in disrupting the rhythm of the dock guards on the high wall, and let them fall into a chaos of dodging short spears and stones.
"Second and third sons, pay attention to dodging the stone throwing on the wall, hit the hammer team, and hurry up!"
Yan Xing waved his hand to command the siege of the city, and Gan Ling, who followed behind to cover the ram, and several archers also began to exert their might, they were all selected archers with superb archery, and after entering the firing range, they also began to draw their bows and arrows and began to shoot at the guards of the dock fort on the wall.
In the exchange of arrows, occasionally someone fell from the arrow, and the hammer team behind them took heavy steps, shortening the distance step by step, and finally approached the gate of the dock fort.
