Chapter 125: Hold on to a wave
"It's not good, Yelu Hongqi used his shield to resist the bow and arrows, our bows and arrows can't stop the pace of the opponent at all, His Royal Highness King Ming, what should I do now?" Yu Sibao stood on the city wall and looked at the actions of the other side, and said to Ning Shaoqiu with some anxiety.
Ning Shaoqiu gritted his teeth and looked at the soldiers who were boiling hot water below, at this time the water had just come out of the pot, although there was a raging fire at the bottom, but the whole pot was very large, so it had just burned a little smoke.
"How long will it take for this water to boil?" Ning Shaoqiu asked towards the soldier,
The soldier fanned the fire desperately and said, "It will probably be half an hour less." ”
"Shhh Is it going to take so long?! Ning Shaoqiu's eyes sank, and he said to Yu Sibao: "Let the soldiers' arrow rain not stop, shoot until there is nothing, and send another team of soldiers out to speed up the frequency of borrowing tables, chairs and benches, as well as all kinds of iron, no matter what you do, you can take it!" ”
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Fortunately, there is nothing in Lizhou City, there are many people, and more than 18,000 soldiers are now all crowded in the city, and there is no problem at all in transferring a small detachment.
"The rest of the people immediately went to the Daimyo's Mansion to move some utensils to resist the city gate, once the opposite side wants to break the city gate, there is something to resist, they are not easy to push, anything can be, there is one thing is the same, it is the ability to pile up the city gate!"
"Yes!" The remaining soldiers turned into porters, and all sorts of things began to be carried to the city gates.
Ning Shaoqiu squinted at all this, and heard Yu Sibao shout again: "Your Highness, the other side is almost under the city tower, if you don't take some measures, I'm afraid they will wait to attack the city gate!" ”
"How long is the water going underneath?!" Ning Shaoqiu asked again at the soldier who was boiling water.
"I still need time for a stick of incense!" The soldier's entire face was a little black with smoke, and Ning Shaoqiu didn't say anything, only urged to speed up, and then walked towards the city wall.
"What's going on now?" Ning Shaoqiu went up to the city wall, glanced at it hurriedly, and then asked Yu Sibao.
"The situation is not optimistic, the shield formation of the Liao State seems to be quite accomplished, the soldiers are holding the shield while charging, it is difficult to kill them, and their war horses do not charge at all, the damage caused by bows and arrows is very limited, and the most important thing is that we don't have many bows and arrows!"
Listening to Yu Sibao's words, Ning Shaoqiu frowned: "These guys are much more difficult than I imagined!" ”
"Then let's stop! Put this bunch of guys in and fight again! Ning Shaoqiu finally decided to stop continuing to shoot arrows, firstly, the lethality is limited after all, and secondly, there are indeed not many bows and arrows left, and they have to be kept to deal with the cavalry behind.
"But there is no restriction on bows and arrows, this group of Liao soldiers will only rush faster!" Yu Sibao said: "At that time, we will have no way to stop them from breaking the city!" ”
"Not necessarily!" Ning Shaoqiu's face sank and said, "The tables, chairs and benches that the soldiers just brought up can be thrown down the moment they attack the city!" In any case, we must delay until the boiling water is boiled, this is our last chance to hold the walls! ”
"Okay!" Yu Sibao listened to the order and hurriedly passed the order.
The archer got the order, and the bow and arrow stopped in an instant, and without the obstruction of the bow and arrow, sure enough, the Liao soldiers advanced much faster than just now.
Yelu Hongqi looked at the bows and arrows in the sky and stopped, was slightly stunned, and then rejoiced: "I didn't expect that there are so many bows and arrows in Lizhou City, and King Ming doesn't look like a person who can arrange troops, and he dares to use such a small number of bows and arrows, and he ordered the soldiers to charge faster, and sent archers to cover the soldiers in this area and send them to the corner!" ”
"Yes!"
In just an instant, countless bows and arrows shot out from the Liao camp, swishing towards the walls of Lizhou City, and the sound of breaking the air flew above the soldiers, so frightened that they hurriedly hid under the city walls.
"Damn!" Ning Shaoqiu also followed this group of soldiers, and then the city wall dodged, he really didn't expect that the other party would still have this hand, using firepower to cover, so that their soldiers could smoothly enter the city corner, what's even worse is that now Ning Shaoqiu doesn't know where the Liao soldiers on the opposite side have attacked, and I don't know if this table and chair has any effect if it is recognized now!
"Their ropes have hooked the city wall, they must be ready to go up to the city tower!"
Fortunately, Sibao was experienced, and it seemed that he heard the color of the rope pulling, and reminded Ning Shaoqiu.
"Good! Then don't wait! Throw it directly, "Ning Shaoqiu didn't hesitate, after all, the fighters passed by in an instant, if you can't make up your mind, you can't say that the other party will attack it."
"All at my command! Throw! Yu Sibao shouted loudly when he heard Ning Shaoqiu's words, the soldiers didn't look up and looked down at the gap in the city wall, and threw it down directly, of course, at this time, they would choose Ning Shaoqiu and don't blame them, the sky is full of bows and arrows, and no one wants to raise their heads.
"Huh? What are these people doing? Why are all the tables, chairs, and benches thrown downstairs? Yelu Hongqi's adjutant looked at the scene in front of him and said curiously: "Are they jumping over the wall in a hurry, and all kinds of things are starting to be thrown under the city tower?" ”
Yelu Hongqi's face was also a little unbearable, but he couldn't laugh when he looked at it, these tables, chairs and benches looked very funny, but when they were thrown down because of their size, stumbling would always affect those soldiers who were on the ropes, and more importantly, the tables, chairs and benches were all thrown from a high altitude, and the wooden boards that fell on the ground could be said to be flying all over the sky, originally these were not lethal, but under high-speed movement, wherever they bounced to the soldiers, they would directly cut out a wound, The power is not worse than ordinary weapons, coupled with the huge number of tables, chairs and benches, one after another are thrown under the city wall, and soon obstacles are piled up under the city wall, which is not easy for the soldiers to march.
"Is this throwing out the tables, chairs and benches in the entire Lizhou City?" Yelu Hongqi finally knew what this guy had just delayed for so long!
"Whew! Order the soldiers, stop the attack first! Seeing that the casualties of the assault were increasing, and that the number of tables, chairs, and benches on the walls had not diminished in the slightest, Yeluhuqi finally ordered the attack to be halted first.
As soon as he stopped, Ning Shaoqiu immediately asked the soldiers on the city wall to stop, and at the same time, he waved his hand quickly: "Hurry up, change a group of people, let the soldiers maintain their physical strength at all times, and see when the hot water will be good!" ”
