Chapter 152: Capture the City (1)
He was the first to set out, followed by the selected mountain people, skilled in mountains and forests, and their goal was to climb the mountain, and of course there were not too many of them.
Seeing them go away, Liu Ji pressed Zhuoma's little head and handed her over to Mariqi, this old man, who made no secret of his love for the girl, was afraid that she would not be at ease, so he couldn't stop comforting her.
"Your Abba is just responding, there is not much danger, and he will definitely come back."
"Hmm." The little girl was very sensible, she didn't cry or make trouble, just like sending Abba to hunt.
After settling her, Liu Ji returned to his tent, where there was also a frightened girl.
"Elcyria, I'm about to go on an expedition, aren't you going to send one to your master?"
The girl who was in a daze suddenly jumped up and went to get the parts hanging on the shelf, wanting to help him put on his armor, Liu Ji held down her hand, turned her body over, and turned her back to herself.
"I'm going to fight my dear mother and need some encouragement." Liu Ji pressed to her ear and whispered, his hands already roaming over her skin.
The girl was hugged by him from behind, a warm breath was blowing in her ears, her body and mind were itchy, several sensitive parts, with the other party's movements, became more and more weak, and she had to prop herself on the shelf desperately, clenching her teeth, so as not to make a shameful sound.
After a long time, the paralyzed girl was carried to the couch, and the man's sudden request made her hot and her face flushed, which was both exciting and novel, you know, just through a curtain, it was the camp where people shouted and neighed, boiling.
"Get a good night's sleep, don't think about anything, and in two hours, I'll be back."
Liu Ji dressed himself neatly, buckled a crystal hourglass upside down on the side of the couch, turned around and walked out.
Elsilea opened her eyes in a daze, her amber eyes were full of misty, staring at the transparent funnel without blinking, watching the fine sand inside keep falling, she knew very well that the moment when the upper half fell was the moment when the results were revealed.
Her relatives and men will be destined to have one who will not return.
Crystal tears, flowing from the beautiful big eyes, fell one by one onto the mattress.
At dawn, it is the time when a person's biological clock is reset to zero, and they wake up from their slumber to start their day.
The defenders on the walls of Kabiyero had finally survived to the moment of changing their guards, and could go back to sleep well, and when they walked down the ladder, their eyes were full of tiredness, and their steps were extremely vain.
The walls were neither as high nor as wide as those of the Middle Earth, but had only one earthen wall, behind which were framed by thick timber for support, and at the same time for the defenders to stand on top and attack the invading enemy from a high position.
The condescending Saraswati could only stand up straight by holding on to the wooden railing, and no one could replace her after staying all night compared to the soldiers who had been on guard all night.
And the defenders who came to replace them, with their eyes wide open, yawned in their mouths, some of them were not even dressed, and they hung on their shoulders, and those who moved slowly, the ones in front had already reached the city, and those behind had not yet left the barracks.
Saraswati looked at this scene coldly, suppressing his anger, at this time, the effect can only be counterproductive, even if he doesn't understand military affairs, he can understand people's hearts.
Fortunately, it only takes a while to complete the change of defense, as long as this group of defenders who are rested enough to stand on the city wall, their psychology can be somewhat calm, but I don't know why, she always feels unstable, and her eyelids are jumping hard.
The order of the change of defense was to go down first and then up, and it was necessary to wait for all the original defenders to leave the space for the newcomers, and just when the city wall was empty, a horn suddenly sounded.
Saraswati subconsciously turned around, and at that moment, a strong force slammed into her shoulder, knocking the woman off guard and rolling her onto the wooden steps.
"Be careful!" Immediately, a loud call rang out.
As she gazed in amazement, many bright fires fell from the sky, and the guard who pushed her away, with a rocket stuck in his chest, fell not far from her feet.
The sudden blow made her mind blank, and it also made all the defenders lose their judgment, because these rockets were clearly fired from the side of the mountain.
The Tang people actually climbed the cliff!
What shocked her even more than this discovery was that at this time, it was the moment when the garrison of the city wall was the most lax.
The bright fire became the best indication in the camp, and according to the pre-arrangement, thousands of mountain people rushed out first, in groups of three or four, each carrying a freshly cut tree on his shoulder, and the branches and leaves on it were not removed.
The black pressure team quickly approached the city wall from several directions, Liu Ji stood behind, has been paying attention to the movement of the city head, seeing that the mountain people rushed through half of the distance, there is still no figure on the city head, I have to say that the attack time chosen by the fierce is very ideal.
Soon, the first tree was erected on the city wall, and the process went smoothly and better than Liu Ji expected before the war, and many times, when the casualties were heaviest, it was in the section close to the city, the open and unobstructed open land, which was the best target for the defenders, and now there was no need to worry about this problem.
From the erected trees, several mountain people with knives in their mouths quickly climbed up the body of the trees with their hands and feet, just like in the mountain forest, but this level of climbing was much less difficult.
Turn a siege battle into a competition in the mountains and forests, so that these men, in their own familiar environment, can give full play to their strengths, watching a few men get closer and closer to the city, Liu Ji's heart involuntarily raised, if a group of mountain people can take the city wall, it would be better.
As he watched, one of the men who had climbed up first had already crossed the city, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw that the man's body shook a little, and suddenly fell headlong, and then the figures of the defenders appeared on the city wall, and they shouted and shot the arrows in their hands, and shot down some of the mountain people who could not escape.
It seemed that the defenders had recovered from the chaos, and several sections of the city wall were engaged in close combat, and the two sides greeted each other with bows and arrows at a short distance, and the situation was moving in the direction of a stalemate.
"It's our turn."
After observing for a while, Liu Ji stepped on his war horse, led his men, bypassed the front, and galloped towards the selected breakthrough site.
