Chapter 236: Plan Ahead
White light flashed.
Li Kui's big head flew up, the plate axe in his right hand fell to the ground, and then a gorgeous blood mist erupted from the broken neck, and the headless body slowly fell.
Those eyes were wide open, staring at Wu Song deadly, not blinking!
Whoever kills, people will always kill him!
This kind of two-pole character who likes to kill innocents indiscriminately, and is brave and ruthless, and his martial arts are not super-first-class, and he doesn't know how to live to the end of Shi Nai'an's pen, and when he meets Zhao Hao, he is considered to be unfavorable.
In an instant, there was silence above and below the city.
The soldiers of the Liangshan Army on the tower of the city were stunned for a while, they never expected that the black whirlwind like a killing god would die under the confrontation with others, and they were killed by the open.
The Song army under the city broke out with an earth-shattering cheer, and their morale exploded instantly, eager to fly up the city tower with wings, and also find Liangshan thieves to practice swords.
Wu Song shook the blood on the tip of the knife, and pointed at the city tower with the snowflake iron ring knife: "Jinyi Wei Wu Song is here, who dares to go downstairs to fight again!" ”
He was tall and loud, his voice was like thunder, although he was standing alone under the city, he was majestic, like a god descending from heaven, and the soul of the Liangshan army on the city tower was scattered.
In the middle of the city tower, Qin Ming, known as the thunderbolt fire, was so angry that he gritted his teeth when he saw his brother killed, but after all, he didn't dare to open the city gate and fight to the death with the Song army.
Wu Song shouted several times, and the Song army under the city shouted and cursed again, and the Liangshan army on the city tower only strengthened their vigilance, and no one answered.
Seeing that the last rays of afterglow had fallen behind the distant mountains, the sky gradually darkened.
The planter said helplessly: "It's getting late, first set up camp on the spot, bury the pot to make rice, wait until tomorrow for the craftsman to cut wood, build a batch of ladders, and then come to attack the city is not too late." ”
Zhao Hao nodded.
Woo woo woo~
With the sound of a desolate and distant trumpet, the Song army retreated in turn, until they retreated two miles outside the city, and then set up camp, set up a fence and rejected horses, and then began to bury pots and make rice.
Seeing that Zhao Hao led the Song army to retreat like a tide, the officers and soldiers of the Liangshan army let out a long breath.
Zhu Wu said in a deep voice: "The main commander of the enemy army is the seed division, this person is powerful in the northwest, and the Qiang people are terrified when they hear his name, I hope that the leader of Lu will lead his troops to help as soon as possible, otherwise this city may not be able to hold it." ”
Qin Ming looked down at the ground under the city, and said lightly: "What are you afraid of, we just need to strengthen our vigilance, don't worry too much." Although the dog officers and soldiers were menacing, they came lightly all the way, and I watched the rear formation, with all the food, grass, clothing, armor and other baggage, and no large equipment. We are equal to his troops, Xiangcheng is as high as four zhang, if there is no ladder truck to assist, how can we capture this city? If he only attacked with a rudimentary wooden ladder, he would be dead! ”
Qin Ming paused for a moment, and then said: "Besides, Leader Lu will also arrive in Xiangcheng in about two or three days, and at that time, I will wait for the two ends to attack, so that the dog officers and soldiers will be attacked by the enemy, and then we can capture the Breeder Dao alive, and that little white face of the clan!" ”
Zhu Wu thought about it for a while, felt that it made sense, and did not speak again.
……
Twilight gradually fell, and smoke curled up from the Song army's camp.
The planter looked at the Xiangcheng Tower in the distance, as if he was thinking about something, and at this moment, a cloud of smoke and dust galloped in from the gate, shouting urgently.
The seed master's eyes flashed, and he shouted loudly: "What is the urgent report? ”
The fast horse originally wanted to run towards the big tent of the Chinese army, but when he heard the voice of the planter, he hurriedly reined in the horse's feet, turned over and got off the horse, and went straight to the front of the planter.
"Old General Qiyu, there is an urgent report from the south, Lu Junyi, the second leader of the Liangshan Army, is coming to Xiangcheng with an army of 30,000 thieves!"
The expression of the planter changed slightly.
The 30,000 Liangshan bandit army is nothing, but if it is attacked with the Liangshan bandit army in the city, the Song army is afraid that it will be attacked by the enemy, and it needs to be dealt with carefully.
The seed master immediately led the crowd straight to Zhao Hao's army tent.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, there were three or four dishes and a pot of wine on the desk in the center, and Zhao Hao was pouring himself a drink, looking very leisurely.
Seeing that the planter had a stroke and came in, Zhao Hao showed a warm smile in his eyes: "The old general came just in time, come and drink a few glasses of wine to quench your thirst." ”
The seed master didn't have the heart to drink with him, and said urgently: "The right thing is to report urgently, the 30,000 thieves of the Liangshan thief army Lu Junyi are coming from Xiangcheng, and we must divide a soldier and horse to guard the north bank of Yingshui, in case the thief army crosses the river and forms a flanking attack on our army!" ”
Zhao Hao sandwiched a piece of chicken, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it for a while, and drank a glass of wine unhurriedly, then he smiled and said: "The old general doesn't have to worry, I'll have a meal together, go to bed early, and capture Xiangcheng in the early hours of the morning to see how the thieves attack." ”
"Siege in the early morning? We don't have siege equipment, how can we siege the city? The planter looked shocked and looked at him puzzled.
Zhao Hao smiled indifferently and said: "I have prepared twenty ladders and a rushing car, if I don't attack the city tonight, when will I stay?" ”
The seed master was dumbfounded, seeing that Zhao Hao's appearance didn't seem to be a joke, and besides, this kind of thing can't be joked, after hesitating for a while, his face was overjoyed, he stood up, and said urgently: "Where are the ladders and the rushing car?" ”
Zhao Hao smiled and said: "The old general doesn't need to ask more, he only needs to arrange the preparations for the siege after the meal, and I will let the Jinyi guard prepare the siege equipment." ”
The planter didn't ask more, just in Zhao Hao's account, he hurriedly used the wine and food, and went to arrange it.
*************
The night is deep, the moonlight is like water, a layer of silver light is sprinkled on the city tower, the weather has entered autumn, and the city tower in the night wind looks a little cold in the moonlight.
The defenders on the tower of the city were leaning against the city wall, some chatting quietly, some closing their eyes to recuperate, and some were falling asleep.
"Lao Tzu goes to pee, who will accompany Lao Tzu?" A defender soldier asked.
"your mother, this black light is blinding, just solve it on the spot and sprinkle it below." Another defender laughed.
The defender laughed, put the spear in his hand towards the battlement, slowly climbed up the battlement, unbuttoned his crotch, and said with a smile while shaking his buttocks: "Standing at such a high place to pee, it is extremely refreshing to pee...... Huh, what's the sound? ”
A rumbling sound came into his ears, he raised his head suspiciously, the smile on his face instantly stared, even the yellow urine column stopped abruptly, like a ghost, looking at a black shadow slowly floating not far away, his mouth opened into a big O-shape, and it took a long time to react, and he hissed and shouted: "Enemy attack, enemy attack......"
Woo woo woo~
There was a great chaos at the head of the city, the sound of horns rose to the sky, the bustling Liangshan army grabbed their weapons one after another, turned to the outside of the city tower, rows of strong bows and hard crossbows quickly set up the battlements, and the arrows flashing with cold light were aimed at the city.
Seeing that the enemy had spotted them approaching the city wall, the planter shouted: "Crossbowmen come out of the ranks, suppress the bows and arrows at the head of the city!" ”
With a sound of response,
Woohoo!
Thousands of bolts rained down on the city.
The Great Song Dynasty not only has a divine arm crossbow, due to the lack of horses, so the strength of the Great Song Dynasty's crossbow arrows is unparalleled in the world, especially the crossbow arrows used by the forbidden army, the range is two hundred steps away, enough to suppress those inferior crossbow arrows at the head of the city.
The rain of arrows rained one after another, and even Qin Ming and Zhu Wu couldn't resist it, so they had to hide under the arrow stacks to avoid being injured by the arrows.
Woo woo woo~
In the desolate and distant sound of the horn, the city suddenly shouted and killed, so startled that Qin Ming raised his shield to protect his head, poked his head out from the battlement, and looked down at the city tower, and couldn't help but be shocked.
Under the moonlight, countless Song troops pushed dozens of ladders and a siege car and rushed out, heading straight for the city tower.
Straight lady thief, but half a night, where did these dog officers and soldiers get the ladder?
It's not just that he can't figure it out, but even the seed masters under the banner of the Chinese army can't figure it out.
In the impression of the planter, Zhao Hao is a hot-blooded young man who is full of jealousy and hatred, and of course he is also a young man full of wisdom. Although he once led 300 Baiqi soldiers to travel thousands of miles through Liaodi, the seed master believed that it was just a legendary adventure, one because of good luck, and the other because of the bravery of Zhao Hao and the accompanying Baiqi soldiers. As for leading the troops to fight, the division really didn't think that Zhao Hao was a handsome general, just a name and some military merits.
Unexpectedly, in today's first battle, Zhao Hao gave him an unexpected surprise, this Zhao Gongzi was able to prepare a ladder car and a rushing car in advance, and he was prepared in this kind of rapid march, which had to make him look at Zhao Hao with admiration.
It's just that he doesn't understand how Zhao Hao did it, and he won't ask in detail...... At his age like an old fox, he no longer had the strength to break the casserole and ask to the end.
Roar~
Roar~
Roar~
With the passionate and confident cries, the Song army rushed desperately under the city wall like a bloodthirsty beast.
The crossbow arrows of the Song army continued, and the Liangshan army at the head of the city still couldn't raise their heads, so they could only let the Song army's siege ladder rumble towards the Xiang city wall.
"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey......"
In the neat trumpet of the Song army under the city wall, the upper half of the movable ladder that was originally folded and pressed on the fixed ladder was slowly raised with the top of the machine as the axis, and then the whole live ladder was completely erected and slowly tilted towards the head of Xiang Cheng, and finally the sound of a bang pressed heavily on the head of the city, and the Liangshan army in front of the arrow battlement hurriedly retreated again and again.
The rain of arrows from the crossbows had stopped, and twenty ladders connected the top of the city into twenty inclined passages connecting the upper and lower parts of the city.
The next moment, hundreds of Song army warriors poured up the ladder like ants, screaming and going straight to the city.
Qin Ming was the first to stand up, and with a move of the long knife in his hand, the Liangshan army, who was originally prostrate under the city tower, stood up with a hula, drew his sword one after another, and rushed to the front of the battlement.
Zhu Wu looked at this siege ladder and couldn't help but secretly marvel, this end is a siege artifact, with this kind of ladder, the towering city wall is no longer an insurmountable obstacle.
The fierce siege battle has finally officially begun.
Boom Boom!
Huge rocks and logs rolled down, smashing Song Jun on the ladder to the point that his head was bleeding, crying for his father and calling his mother, and constantly rolling down from the top of the ladder.
However, all this could not stop the momentum of the Song army pouring into the city, the courage of the Beijing forbidden army was far stronger than that of the local army, not to mention the forbidden army that had been trained and selected by the planters, and the Song army was still rushing to the city tower one after another.
