Chapter Thirty-Eight

"Wei Yan, Xing Daorong"! Liu Ye said sharply.

"The end will be". Wei Yan and Xing Daorong stood with their knives pressed, and when they heard the sound above, they immediately answered loudly.

"Go to the defense quickly, remember, you don't need to go out of the city to face the battle, if there is a mistake, military law will deal with it." As Liu Ye spoke, he glared at Xing Daorong, for Wei Yan, he was relieved, as for Xing Daorong, this product was the same as having no brains, which made him feel uneasy.

"Yes"! The two of them stood up at the same time, military law is not a joke, in military law, there is no affection to talk about, not long ago Xing Daorong drank a little wine because of the state of war, and he was beaten to the ground.

When the two had finished, they did not hesitate at all, and turned to leave, and the soldier followed them closely.

Gao Ye also stood up with a bang, and arched his hand: "My lord, Gao Ye is willing to help them on the battlefield"!

"Good"!

…………

On the city wall, the tall arrow tower overlooks the four directions, and under the city wall, in front of the fence made of bowls like thick wooden stakes, there are dense piles of horses and antlers.

And on the female wall, all the archers are setting up their arrows, aiming ahead, as long as a thief enters the sight, he will be greeted by a burst of arrows.

Spears, swords, the defenders have clenched their hands tightly, their eyes are looking ahead without blinking, there is no half-scattered, some are just majestic, because they are all officers and soldiers who have licked blood on the battlefield and rubbed shoulders with death every day!

Why wait? Because they know that the outbreak of war is coming!

The soldiers on the city wall saw Wei Yan and Xing Daorong coming over, smiled and bowed down, and when they saw the main general coming over, the soldiers were shocked, and their morale suddenly rose.

Time passes imperceptibly......

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves gradually, outside Xinye City, 10,000 Yellow Turban thieves appeared on the ground like ants, and the murderous momentum was like a cold hurricane, blowing the defenders on the Xinye City Wall trembling, their scalps were numb, and the soles of their feet were even colder.

Even Wei Yan, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, saw such a scale of the thief soldiers, his face changed again and again, his eyes couldn't help but look at the real death, and the long knife in his hand was firmly grasped.

The first wave of Yellow Turban thieves has raised their shields!

The earth-shattering sound of killing sounded, and the archers on the city wall had long been ready to shoot with their bows full, and at this moment they all let go, and the dense rain of arrows shot at the people who were swept up by the black pressure and swept up the accumulated sand and stones.

The wooden shield was thick and strong, and the sharp arrows were only three points into the wood, and they were stuck in the wood, and only a few unfortunate ones were pierced through the gaps by the arrows.

Seeing that the arrows could not help them, they immediately put down their bows and arrows, lifted the stones that had been prepared for a long time, and had already prepared many defensive measures, arrows, stones, wood, and oil.

With a large number of stones, the wood was thrown down by the defenders, and only the screams of the city were heard to rise and fall, and in less than a moment, hundreds of corpses had been piled up under the city.

These pioneers were just to cover the ladder, and the siege vehicle came to the city wall without any loss, and suddenly the ladder was erected on the city wall, and the siege vehicle was approached by dozens of thieves and soldiers step by step.

"Pour the oil!"

With Wei Yan's order, a pot of boiling oil was sprinkled on the city like heavy rain from the sky, and the momentum of the Yellow Turban Thieves' hard time to rise was severely suppressed.

"Set fire!"

Rumble!

Under the city wall, majestic flames rose into the sky, naturally forming a barrier, which also meant that the first wave of the Yellow Turban Thieves' offensive ended with complete failure.

Countless Yellow Turban thieves fled in the flames, rolling on the ground, and many were burned alive, and even if they were not burned, they were indifferently shot to death by arrows in the process of extinguishing the fire.

………… North Gate of Shinno.

Suddenly, the earth-shattering shouts of killing came, and five thousand thieves came out from near the city gate without warning.

There were not many standing soldiers in Xinye Castle, and they had to guard four city walls, spread out evenly, but in fact, the number of soldiers on each wall did not exceed 2,000. As early as just now, the North City Gate dispatched a thousand to join the West City Gate defensive battle, and at this moment, there are less than a thousand defenders left in the North City Gate!

At this time, a school captain was immediately surprised when he saw this, didn't he say that the Yellow Turban Army was attacking the West City Gate, why did a large number of thieves suddenly arrive.

Could it be that it is a plan to attack the east and the west? Pretend to send all the troops to attack the west city gate in detail, and then wait for the north city gate to divide the defenders out, and then come by surprise!

If you think that this is just a feint attack, and a large number of soldiers and horses will be transferred away, the other party may directly change the feint attack into a strong attack, this kind of change between the virtual and the real, even if it is as wise as Liu Ye, he never expected it.

"Quick, defend"! Even if there are less than 1,000 defenders on the north city wall, the guards are not in the slightest disorder, but calmly commanded.

It's just that when their archers just reacted and caught the arrows, Ma Pi had already led the thieves to take the ladder, and directly cut down several defenders who were about to shoot arrows, and rushed up with an arrow, becoming the first person to climb the city.

Just as he had just climbed up, a dense stream of arrows flew towards him at the speed of a gale.

Ma Pi was frightened, and the big knife in his hand immediately swung quickly, forming a shield, blocking the arrows one after another, and the blocked arrows hit the unfortunate defenders, and several arrows were inserted into his arms at the same time.

At the same time, when Ma Pi had already won the siege for the thieves behind him, hundreds of thieves first rushed to the city on the ladder, slashing at the archers and the defenders who tried to overthrow the ladder.

The captain also rushed over with the defenders, and for a while the men and horses on both sides had already been killed.

The defenders who had changed to swords naturally did not have bows and arrows to resist the other Yellow Turban thieves, so that the Yellow Turban thieves who were still climbing the ladder could successfully climb the city, so that with very few casualties, more than half of the Yellow Turban thieves had reached the city and joined the chaos.

The disparity in numbers between the two sides was too great, and soon after the battle, the defenders had gradually become outnumbered and at a disadvantage, which was equivalent to one defender having to fight several thieves.

Seeing that the defenders of the north city gate are about to be unable to hold on, the city head is about to be occupied by thieves, and the accident will happen again!

"Thou and the rabble, don't be presumptuous"!

A loud shout resounded through the city like thunder, and at the end of the words, I saw two generals at the head, followed by about 500 officers and soldiers.

It's not who is majestic in the middle, it's Takaya! Next to him is Zhou Cang, who has basically recovered from his injuries!

Originally, Gao Ye and Zhou Cang also wanted to go to the West City Gate to participate in the battle, but they never thought that a large number of thieves would suddenly attack the North City Gate!

No need to ask, the person who saw through the scheme was Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao!

It's this resourceful man who is called a ghost!
