Up and down the city, the distance is only a few tens of meters. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Although the two hundred Wuhuan cavalry grabbed a wave of bows and arrows at the moment when the shield was erected, the bow and arrow launch required a reaction time after all, and this time was enough for the military shield to protect their vital points! As a result, this wave of bows and arrows became the sound of the two hundred Wuhuan cavalry! The first salvo of 500 repeaters took away more than 100 Wuhuan archers! Before the remaining Wuhuan archers could draw their bows and raise their arrows, the second wave of crossbows came in an instant, and a scream sounded, and no one was spared, and they were all shot off their horses!

"Collect the crossbow! Change the spear! In order to save the consumption of crossbow arrows, after eliminating the long-range threat, Wen Ping immediately removed the repeater and replaced it with a spear.

"King, do you want to increase support?"

"Wang, my warriors of the Chi clan are willing to come forward to fight!"

"King, we can't watch our brothers being killed like sheep by the Han army!"

In the distance, seeing their Wuhuan archers being shot down by the Han army like raindrops, they were all furious and stepped forward to ask for battle.

In the face of the excited clansmen, Qiu Liju was expressionless, and glared coldly at these little marshals who asked for war and said, "Do you think this king is cowardly? Without a shield, how can you resist the crossbow arrows of the Han army? If there is not enough rope, how can you capture the city? This king cannot let you die in vain! “

The little handsomes were ashamed in their hearts and didn't dare to look at Qiu Liju. Qiu Liju paused and continued: "Those dead brothers just now, they all died worthwhile! We can see that the Han army used crossbows, not bows. Their crossbows can be fired continuously in a very short time. However, the number of their crossbows was limited, no more than five hundred, and the number of their crossbow arrows was also limited, which was estimated to have consumed a lot in the previous capture of the royal court. “

The number of crossbows held by the Han army can be judged from the intensity of crossbow arrows, but what did Qiu Liju use to affirm the fact that the number of crossbow arrows in the Han army was insufficient? The puzzled Xiaoshuai raised this question.

"First, crossbow arrows are not bows and arrows, even if the Han army captures the royal court, it can't be supplemented with the bows and arrows of my Wuhuan clan. Second, if the Han army had enough crossbow arrows, it would not give my warriors a chance to get close at all! ”

After listening to Qiu Liju's explanation, these Wuhuan handsomes were deeply admired. Looking at the ice and snow city again, among the three hundred Wuhuan warriors, they climbed to the top of the city one after another through the rope. The Han army really did not continue to shoot with crossbow arrows, but chose to take advantage of the numerical advantage on the city wall, and knocked down the Wuhuan warriors who had finally climbed up one by one! It's a pity that these warriors who can be ten with one did not die on the way to plunder the big man, but finally fell on the land at the door of their own house in aggrieved.

"Bo taunts!"

"The subordinates are here!"

"Give you a day, prepare two thousand wooden shields, and a thousand ropes to climb! Tomorrow, before the whole army attacks, if you can't see these materials, this king will take you to sacrifice the flag! ”

"My subordinates understand!" This Wuhuan quartermaster named Bo Xiluo hurriedly rode his horse away and organized the Wuhuan people under his command to make the materials that Qiu Liju needed! The first task is to dig out the various tools found in the ruins, cut down trees, and make wooden shields. A little up the red mountain, there are many trees, so there is no shortage of raw materials for making shields, and the production process of wooden shields is relatively simple, and Qiu Liju has no requirements for the specifications of the shield, so this task is easier to complete! The second task, a thousand ropes, is a bit of a hassle! Half of the ropes of the Wuhuan tribe are made of hay, and there is a lot of hay under the snow, but it takes a lot of time to weave, and it is not something that can be achieved overnight. Bo Xiluo had an idea and requisitioned half of the marching tents! The tents of the Wuhuan people were mostly made of cowhide, and a few poor tribes used cloth and silk stolen from the Han Chinese. Whether it is cowhide or cloth, it is a good material for making ropes, which is several times better than straw ropes!

Bo Xiluo consulted Qiu Liju about this idea, and Qiu Liju did not object. Tomorrow a great battle, won, naturally there are enough tents in the city; If you lose, you won't need so many tents anymore......

On the ice and snow walls, this tentative attack also came to an end. In order to explore the reality of the Han army, the five hundred Wuhuan warriors were annihilated by the Han army after just a bubble. The ice wall is not as steep, but it is very slippery, and even with the help of ropes, it is still very difficult to climb. Without the cover of bows and arrows, and the inability to form a numerical advantage in a unit of time, the Wuhuan people were eliminated one by one, and two were eliminated by a pair. Even if they are brave, they will not pose much threat to the Han army.

To He Xian's surprise, none of the five hundred Wuhuan people flinched. A few were forced to fall into the city and narrowly escaped, but they still climbed up regardless of the hesitation and died to the last man! If it is a friendly army, He Xian will be in awe! As an enemy, He Xian was deeply unhappy. Wuhuan is not afraid of death, and death, for them, is just a return to the holy mountain. This is very similar to the philosophy of a later religion. Not being afraid of death is a very scary trait. Perhaps, it is precisely because of this characteristic that the Wuhuan people can make the behemoth of the Han have a headache with a total population of three and a half million people.

Qiu Liju ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops. The soldiers are long gone, all buried under the enemy's city, and they will never return. Mingjin, just to send them on their last ride. There was an atmosphere of sadness among the Wuhuan people, and they prayed incessantly to Chishan. Comfort the departed Heroic Spirits and ask the gods for their blessings.

With the singing of the Wuhuan people, the first day of fighting came to an end.

"Do you think Qiu Liju will choose to run away?" He Xian asked Guo Jiadao with some concern, "If these more than 4,000 horsemen become rogues, the destructive power will be extremely great!" “

"Nope! At least I won't just choose to give up after such a wave of tentative attacks! Guo Jia categorically denied it.

"Why? Attacking the city, Qiu Liju has no chance of winning, he will only consume troops on the way, such an obvious ending, it is impossible for him not to see it? “

"Although the siege of the city will cause heavy casualties, but if you don't attack and abandon the clansmen, Qiu Liju will become a shame for the Wuhuan clan! Even after death, the soul will not be able to enter the sacred mountain. Taking a step back, Qiu Liju can be shameless to the point of rebelling in order to survive and preserve his strength, and the Wuhuan warriors under his command may not agree. In that case, Qiu Liju will also lose control over the Wuhuan people under his command, and the gains outweigh the losses! Therefore, if I am Qiu Liju, the best choice is to trigger a vigorous battle in World War I, at least lose more than half of my combat power, and then retreat as a tragic hero and as an avenger! If you have an explanation for your clansmen, you won't be wiped out! “
