Chapter 46: Attack and Defense (2)

After a few rounds of feathered arrows, the outsiders finally shot the arrows into the city, but they did not suppress the archers of the new army, and the outsiders did not know where these archers were. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The two New Army archers were shot in the hands and feet, and after a few curses, they were dragged away and wrapped in sackcloth, while the rest of the archers continued to choose the direction of the projectile to the sound of the herald's drum.

There were several flags standing on the city walls, and they chose the direction of the flags according to the orders they came, and they wanted to shoot outward; And those outside the city can only fly feather arrows into the city by feeling.

They had never attacked a city before, and even the ladder and leather shield could amaze everyone, so there was still much to learn.

After seven or eight rounds of feather arrows, Shi Shan heard a burst of shouts and drums, and hurriedly shouted: "Ready, they are coming!" ā€

There were only seven or eight people on the platform, and the rest of them were crouching under the corners of the city wall to avoid the feather arrows, and when they heard the shouts of the stone mountain, they hurriedly climbed the dirt steps up the city wall.

Under the city, more than 200 warriors, carrying nine ladders and leather shields, passed over the archers who were shooting indiscriminately, and rushed to the city wall with a shout.

Hammer secretly scolded the old leader, this time more than 200 people did rush at the same time, but he was assigned to the northwest corner of the city wall, and there were six ladders in the middle, only two on his side, and there were only more than forty people assigned to the northwest corner.

He hadn't even seen the face of the enemy, and more than a hundred people had fallen on his side, although he hadn't died, but this was the first time he had seen this kind of battle, and he couldn't figure out how the people in the city could guess where the most dense place was.

He carried a leather shield in his right hand and a ladder in his left hand, and he had only one thought in his heart: "Close to the city wall, close to the city wall even if you die, it is better than not knowing where the enemy is." ā€

The sturdy thighs were stepping on the dry land of early winter, and his heart was pounding, it was not the first time he had been on the battlefield, and he had even forgotten the last time his heart beat so hard.

Toby, who was carrying the ladder side by side with him, had been chanting the magic of the witch priest, holding the horsehair amulet in his mouth and chanting the words.

"Bow down to the Spirit of War. There is a white stone on Mount Kinabalu that looks like the mount of the Spirit of War. There is a spring in the mountain, and the water does not flow into the stones, nor does the arrow reach me, a servant of the spirit of war, nor into my companions or my horses. It's like water in a river, no matter how much water there is, it can only slide over the stones, arrows are like water, and I am like ...... stones."

"The sun is the vehicle of the spirit of war, which will never be extinguished, so that I, who believe in the spirit of war, will also live forever. The altar on the sacred mountain was in a cave and was sealed with stones, and all those who tried to destroy the temple could not see the altar. An eagle can't stretch out its claws when he can't see a hare, a wolf can't show its fangs when he can't see a wild sheep, I serve the altar of the spirit of war, and those who can't see the altar can't kill me......"

It was an old spell from war and strife in the land long ago, and Hammer never learned it, but he had never been hit by an arrow, and he didn't bother to learn it over time.

But today, listening to the chatter of his companions around him, he couldn't help but follow the chatter, panting as he ran, but the chanting became louder and louder, and finally turned into shouting and wolf howling.

With a howl, they crossed the pile of vertical logs, and at last approached the wall, placing the head of the ladder two or three paces away from the wall, and ran to the middle of the ladder.

"Go up!"

"If we go to the city, they won't be able to beat us! Kill it. ā€

"Raise your shields to block their arrows, hurry up and climb up!"

The two strongest men threw down their leather shields, clung to the middle of the ladder, and cried out loudly, the green tendons on their necks bursting out.

"Ahh

With a desperate cry, the three of them finally lifted the ladder with their arm strength and pushed it up quickly, and the clansmen around them held their leather shields to block the feathered arrows flying from the city.

Hammer shouted to his companion next to him: "Hold it up and climb up!" If you climb up, they won't be able to shoot arrows, we have iron swords and iron spears, and we are not afraid of them! Toby, Toby! What are you doing? At this time, you are still chanting talisman charms? Come on! ā€

Someone in the city reached out to push the ladder down, but Hammer and his two strongest buddies held against it.

The archers behind them shot another round of arrows, and the people above were hit by arrows, and the strength of pushing the ladder was suddenly much less.

Toby spat out his amulet, hung the iron axe around his waist, and stepped on the ladder first with his shield, still muttering a spell to avoid the arrows, and he wanted to pick up the axe and chop it when he stepped on the wall immediately.

On the castle, Ishiyama looked at the ladder more than a dozen steps away, took out his bow, got up immediately after shooting a round of feather arrows on the opposite side, and aimed at Tobi, who had already climbed halfway from the side, and the protruding corners of the city wall could easily shoot him to the side.

As soon as he got up, three or four feathered arrows fell beside him, which were blocked by his companion with a shield, and he also let go of his fingers and sent the feathered arrows to the ribs of the man he had never met.

"Arrows are like water, I am like stones......"

This was Toby's last voice, but unfortunately the feather arrow was not water, and he was not a stone, and he rolled down the ladder and was silent again.

Hammer watched as Toby was shot down, and then realized that the position he had chosen was too bad, and the horn that protruded like a pregnant woman's belly hit them right on the side, but at this time he could not change it, so he could only continue to let the clansmen climb up.

Stone Hill shot down Toby, and two people near the ladder were also shot by flying feathered arrows and fell down the wall, and he rushed to the vicinity of the ladder with six people, and the two of them lifted a large stone that had been prepared and pushed it down.

Rumble!

More than 200 catties of stones directly smashed the person on the ladder down and pressed it on the stomach.

Hammer kicked away the blood splashed on his feet, turned around and glanced at the clansmen who were still shooting blindly in the distance, and couldn't help but scold: "Can't you just take a few steps forward?" The old chief sat in the back, how could he know how to attack the city? What's the thing about this? ā€

After scolding twice, leaning on the ladder with his back, he snatched the bow and arrow from the hand of the companion who carried the bow, and aimed it at a man who was about to throw a stone down.

The distance was too tight, the strings rang and people fell, but the stones still fell, and broke a man's leg again.

"Shoot it with the bow on your back, don't let them show their heads!"

"It's so close, even children who are just afraid of milk can shoot, shoot them, the more afraid they are, the easier it is to die."

Shouting loudly, several clansmen around him reacted, drew their bows and arrows and shot back, after all, it was the first time to face the siege situation, and they didn't understand how to cooperate at all.

"Quick! Rush again, this time they can't throw stones! ā€

Hammer held his bow and drew it at the entrance of the stairs in the city, and shot and wounded one more person in the city.

The stone mountain above the city squatted on the city wall, and in his ears was the sound of feather arrows flying, and beside him were two clansmen who had been shot to death, and the feather arrows outside the city were becoming more and more dense.

"The man below is a good archer, if he is in Xia City, he will inevitably become an archer of the new army, and he will shoot accurately and quickly. Gotta kill him. ā€

"Don't look up yet!"

"No, Stone Mountain, they're climbing up."

The ladder creaked, and a group of men came running from the right, ready to fight with their spears. Shi Shan looked at the few people who were about to get up and shouted, "Squat! Throw lime down! ā€

He grabbed a cloth bag from a wicker basket that had been prepared nearby, and threw it over the city wall.

There is a slipknot rope tied on the bag, a bit like a sling, and when the rope is straightened, the lime will spill out, and the bag can be retracted.

With a few snaps, six or seven bags of lime were thrown outside the city, and then a howl of pain was heard, and the lime felt like Shishan had not yet tried it, but listening to this sound knew that the effect was extraordinary.

Estimating that the archers under the city must have been confused at this time, Shi Shan shouted, raised his bow and aimed it at the people below, looking for the good hand who shot his two clansmen in a row before.

Hammer was throwing lime down the city when he shot an arrow at the northwest corner.

Because it was cold, and the cold wind from the northwest blew, and although some of the lime fell on his head, it was blown by the wind a lot, but it did not fall in his eyes.

Listening to the sound of weapons landing around him, watching his partner cover his eyes and crying, he didn't have time to think about what this was, the instinct brought by years of fighting on the grassland made him jump backwards, his fingers hooked the feather arrow, and the moment he turned around, he aimed at the person in the city who was raising his bow and aiming.

The two feathered arrows met in the air, but neither of them hit the other.

Of the more than forty people who followed the siege of Hammer, only six or seven people were left to fight, and the rest were either dead or rubbing their eyes frantically, screaming incessantly.

The most densely populated place in the east is similar to that of Hammer, and the protruding urn at the gate can also attack the flanks of those people, because there are so many people, and more people are killed by pushing down the wood and stones.

These people were warriors of the steppe, and everyone was good at the sacrifice, archery, wrestling, wrestling, horseback riding, ...... Hammer is not lying when he says that he is not afraid of the people in the city at all, but this group of good players does not even have the opportunity to fight hand-to-hand.

Hammer looked at the few people who were still around him, gathered together with his shield, and shouted: "Let's go back, this can't work, this battle can't be fought like this!" ā€

"Dawu hasn't beaten the drum yet, let's go back and be punished."

"Look, those people from the east have run away."

Just as the men on the east side were frantically fleeing, Dawu's drums finally sounded, and Hammer took off his shirt and shouted at his companions who had lime in their eyes, "Hold on to my clothes!" ā€

The men stumbled backwards, leaving behind their partner's corpse, and there was no way to bring them back, but fortunately, the clansmen in the distance continued to shoot arrows into the city to suppress the people in the city, and now they finally had a good look.

A few people who were not killed or seriously injured cried: "Take me back!" Brothers, help me...... Take me back! ā€

The fleeing people did not pay attention to these cries, but only wanted to be able to stay away from the wall, there were not many people in the city, and many were even one step away from the wall, but even this last step could not be taken.

These people thought they could capture it in one fell swoop, but the reality let them know that this was just an illusion, and many people had a grudge against the old leader, what kind of battle was this fighting? (To be continued.) )
