Chapter 234: The Battle of Hesitation
"Big brother, do you think Brother Gongming will come to save us?" Kong Liang began to get anxious, and the idea of negotiating to solve the problem was basically shattered, so many people came to Erlongshan, and the purpose was very obvious, that is, to occupy the White Tiger Mountain of the Kong brothers.

"Don't worry, Brother Gongming is the timely rain, we will definitely come back after receiving the letter, we only need to keep it for seven or eight days, and when Brother Gongming comes, it will be Cao Zhengzhoutong's death." Kong Ming trusts Song Jiang very much, and so does Song Jiang's reputation, timely rain, calling for righteousness, in Kong Ming, it is naturally the guarantee of character, not to mention that Song Jiang has also received the favor of the Kong family, and it is impossible not to see death without saving.
"So rest assured, there is food and water in the village, I'm afraid that he Cao Zheng will do something! Look at how much ability he has in Erlongshan. Kong Liang obviously has confidence again, there is a wall, food and water, and reinforcements to rescue.
"Light more lights on the walled wall tonight, and be careful of sneak attacks." Kong Mingxin concluded that the enemy outside would inevitably attack in the middle of the night, and all defensive measures must be taken.
There is no doubt that attacking the village during the day will inevitably suffer heavy losses, so a sneak attack at night is definitely the best way, and there is naturally no problem for Kong Ming to predict this.
Outside the wall, there is a lot of fire cutting wood to build ladders, but inside the wall, it is also in full swing, collecting firewood everywhere, preparing to light the lights everywhere in the city at night.
Zheng Zhi called Cao Zheng, Zhou Tong, Li Zhong and others to start a pre-war meeting.
It is not so much a pre-war meeting, it is better to say that Zheng Zhi is arranging it alone, this kind of small battle, the tactics have long been mature in the Western Army.
I only heard Zheng Zhi's arrangement: "Zhou Tong, Cao Zheng, Li Zhong, you bring 1,300 men and horses to face the gate with strong bows, erect ladders to attack, and shoot all the feather arrows, you don't need to keep them." Leave 500 men with me to make another plan. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Tong raised his water green heavy gun, and said with a smile: "I have to order, early tomorrow morning, I will definitely attack the village, so that his Kong brothers will know how powerful my little overlord is." ”
Li Zhong naturally had nothing to say, but when he heard the order, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, my man from Peach Blossom Mountain will not dare to slack off." ”
But Cao Zheng didn't have any words, just gave his hand to express it.
Zheng Zhi said again: "Except for the sentry post tonight, the rest of the brothers are well fed and sleepy, there is no war tonight, and there is no need to be nervous." Early tomorrow morning, after eating, the whole army lined up to obey the order to attack the village. ”
Slowly into the night, more than 100 long ladders are neatly stacked together, everyone eats and eats, and does not set up any tents, most of them sleep on the ground.
This is also the first time Zheng Zhi has spent the night in the forest, but it has a different flavor, as for tomorrow's battle, it will not affect Zheng Zhi's mood at all, such a scene really can't make Zheng Zhi nervous.
Early the next morning, the sun had just appeared, and the outside of the White Tiger Cottage began to be busy again, burying the pot and cooking, and lining up the long ladder one by one in front of the formation.
A cowhide drum was also erected in the back, Zheng Zhi checked left and right a few times, slowly walked back, reached the side of the drum, raised his hand, and said slowly: "Drumming!" ”
Although there was only one big drum, the rumbling of the drum was also shrouded in the mountains and forests, and it spread very far away, even a flock of birds in the distance were also frightened and flew away.
The men carried the long ladder, the shouting of killing was lively, and the pace was fast towards the wall.
Hunting bows and hard crossbows continue to shoot towards the wall, no matter how accurate the shooting is, but they can also shoot on the wall, countless arrows rain, round after round.
Kong Liang on the walled wall hurriedly hid behind the battlement, and anxiously, asked suspiciously: "Where did Cao Zheng get so many bows and crossbows, even the officers and soldiers don't have so many bows and crossbows and feather arrows." ”
"It seems that this Cao Zheng has been preparing for a long time, and he has asked someone to build a lot of hunting bows, and I have been waiting for a long time if he has a plan. Dog thing, when Brother Gongming's reinforcements come, he must kill Cao Zheng and warn the rivers and lakes and green forests. Kong Ming was still analyzing, and he also thought in his heart that Baihu Mountain had really made a lot of money over the years, but he was afraid that on the green forest road of the rivers and lakes, it was not one or two who had the idea of beating Baihu Mountain, and he also wanted to use this incident to raise some of his own prestige and deter the younger generations.
All the minions on the White Tiger Mountain went up to this wall, and the rain of arrows came, and they all hid behind the battlements, although there were not many arrows, but they also wailed everywhere.
By the time the long ladder reached the wall, the rain of arrows had also thinned out a lot, and only the sporadic ones were still shooting, and the rest of the bows and crossbows had stopped.
Kong Ming stood up and shouted, "Smash, quick, push the ladder down." ”
Countless minions followed Kong Ming to stand up, pick up the stones, wood, and other things that had been prepared last night, and smash them down.
The bold man had already begun to climb the long ladder, and the timid man held on to the long ladder, looking at his companions climbing above, and he was dodging left and right.
The stones hit, many men were directly smashed down the long ladder, fell to the ground, for a while, there were countless minor and serious injuries, but there were not many deaths, but this wall is not high, and it is difficult to kill if you fall down.
Even so, there was a wailing all over the ground, and then the feather arrows began to shoot from the bottom to the top, but few people climbed the wall again.
Zheng Zhi shook his head again and again, these bandits are still not on the big stage after all, and their courage is too bad.
"Add drums!" Zheng Zhi had to use the drums to urge the minions to move forward.
Zhou Tong, Cao Zheng, Li Zhong and others kept scolding their hesitant subordinates in front, as well as the dozen or so instructors of the Western Army, who were also shouting all over the scene, urging the minions to climb the wall.
It was a fierce battle, and it was a confrontation between the walls and the walls, and the people under the walls kept shooting, and the people on the walls saw that people were approaching countless stones and woods.
It was really difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, Zheng Zhi turned his mind for a moment and said: "Niu Da, you go and give an order to Zhou Tong, and ask him to lead more people to feint and attack, and deceive the enemies on the wall to throw more stones." ”
Now it can only be like this, the bandits are not a regular army after all, and they are urging tightly, and they are afraid that they will stop fighting. There are obviously not many stones and wood in the village, and after throwing them, it will be hand-to-hand combat.
Niu Da ordered him to go forward to find Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong naturally understood the meaning, and with an anxious face, he stepped forward with dozens of cronies, and kept running back and forth left and right at a distance of about ten steps outside the wall.
Sure enough, on the wall, flying stones are continuous. But the speed of this thrown stone is not fast after all, it is not as fast as the feather arrow, even if it is only a dozen steps away, it is easy to dodge, and it hits a few.
Even if he is hit, as long as he is not hit in the head, the injury is not serious. Without a trebuchet, the stones thrown by hand are not very powerful.
More people have also learned the method of Zhou Tong, constantly wandering left and right on the wall, as if looking for a weak appearance.
The people on the wall are naturally very nervous, as long as someone approaches, scattered feathered arrows with countless stones and woods will inevitably pour out, blocking the enemy from approaching, and they don't want the enemy to attack this place as a weakness.
