Two days later, under the city of Donghengzhou, the barbarian army had already listed the formation of the attack, 15,000 people lined up in a loose array, and the soldiers in the front row held the round wooden shield that had been made in the past few days in one hand and the knife in the other, and were frantically hitting the shield with their swords, desperately clamoring.

Zhou Shiju also picked up his long-handled double-edged machete today, wearing a leather armor and a helmet, this outfit was also found from the treasury of Shixing City, a total of ten sets, Zhou Shiju only gave himself and a few of his most trusted leaders to wear, the day before yesterday he transferred 4,000 people to the 5,000 defenders of Shixing City, and today he is ready to use these 4,000 elites to take the lead, relying on hostages and those siege equipment, to capture this small Donghengzhou in one fell swoop.

Two sorcerers dressed in feathers were dancing frantically in front of the battle, shaking the tambourine while slashing a knife or two on themselves from time to time, blood dripping on the surface of the drum, with the sorcerer's crazy chanting and roaring, revealing a frenzied evil.

Ren Gui stood in front of the twelve-wheeled siege vehicle, stroking this proud work that he personally supervised, he was not a craftsman, but he had seen this kind of siege equipment many times before when he was Sima, and a dozen leather cords hung a huge log that could only be held together by two people on this car.

The head of the log is sharpened, wrapped with iron sheets, and there are more than a dozen leather cords pulled behind the wood, which can be pulled up by the strong man Tong Guò These leather ropes can be pulled up by the battering ram, and as soon as he lets go, he can hit it out heavily, Ren Gui believes that even the huge city gate of Panyu City, which is four zhang high and one foot three inches thick, cannot withstand the impact of this battering ram, let alone this small Donghengzhou.

The two wizards' jumping gods have come to an end. A few brutes brought over a big rooster. A wizard stepped forward. The head of the chicken was chopped off with a knife, and the chicken's body reflexively fluttered its wings twice, and fell to the ground at once, its feet twitched weakly, and blood gushed out from the knife, and a brute immediately took a copper bowl and picked up the chicken blood.

Another wizard stabbed the chicken in the heart with a knife, cut a few inches square, and reached into the cavity. In three or two clicks, he took out the internal organs of the chicken, and it was still beating slowly in his hands.

The previous wizard knelt on the ground, holding a tray in both hands, while the wizard who took out the heart of the chicken put the internal organs of the chicken on the plate, carefully observed the shape and texture of the internal organs, and said something in his mouth, and all the barbarians fell to their knees at this time, and did not dare to take a breath, waiting for the results of the wizards' divination.

Zhou Shiju walked to the wizard's side when he was killing the chicken just now, and at this time he stared at the dirty in the wizard's hand. I saw that the wizard suddenly shouted loudly: "The mountain god tells us, today is good." You're sure to get a lot of money!"

All the barbarians cheered, and a smug smile flashed on Zhou Shiju's lips, killing chickens and divination is a tradition of the slang Dong people for thousands of years, but this time he specially bought this wizard in order to boost morale, so that he would say that it was good luck regardless of the result.

The wizard came over amid the cheers of the barbarians, picked up the copper bowl full of chicken blood, dipped his finger in the blood, and drew a pattern on Zhou Shiju's head, while whispering: "Zhou Shuai, you have to be careful, the results of divination are not very good. ”

Zhou Shiju was stunned for a moment, then stood up instead, laughed, and shouted at the barbarians behind: "Da Wu Zhu said, Daji, today we will enter this East Hengzhou City, catch Li Feng, and light the sky lantern!"

The brutes all jumped to their feet and roared wildly, and the wizard shook his head and retreated with his assistants. Zhou Shi raised his long knife, pointed to the city wall of Donghengzhou in the distance, and shouted: "Forward!"

The more than 2,000 barbarians of the front army began to advance slowly, and the barbarians at the forefront of the army drove away the women and children in front of the group, pushing the hostages in a bundle to the front, this time they learned to be obedient, and raised their wooden shields above their heads to prevent the arrows on the city, while the twelve-wheeled siege vehicle was crowded in the shield array of the barbarians, quietly moving forward.

Ren Gui stood over, looked at Zhou Shiju, and smiled strangely: "Zhou Shuai, everything has been arranged, this siege vehicle will definitely be able to crash through the gate of Donghengzhou!"

Li Feng at the head of the city calmly looked at the barbarians who were still shirtless a few days ago and raised their shields today, while many soldiers in the front row were wrapped in several layers of thick cloth, and his nose sighed with disdain: "It's the same old thing again, inform the sergeants defending the city, and after the barbarians cross the hostages and rush to the city, they will be beaten hard!" The gin water and boiling oil are ready, and you will use them later!"

The defenders at the head of the city are now all squatting in the battlements, without showing their heads, today's available crossbow arrows have all been concentrated in the east city, and the sergeants in the north city have all been transferred, leaving only a few hundred defenders of the city to watch, the crossbow arrows are barely enough more than one hundred and forty, all the crossbow arrows have been taken to the head of the city, Li Feng knows that today's battle is the key, he saw thousands of barbarians from the east yesterday, knowing that it must be the enemy's reinforcements arriving, thinking of the foreign aid that he doesn't know where the side is, he can only sigh.

The women and children were less than a hundred steps away from the city wall, Liu Zicai glanced out from the battlements, and looked anxiously at Li Feng, Li Feng also squatted at the head of the city, only looking out from the mouth of the plate between the battlements, his head began to sweat, because he found that the enemy army this time did not want to stop, and his nephew Li Bao was also nowhere to be found this time, so he suddenly had a sense of foreboding.

The women and children were driven all the time, and when they were within fifty steps of the city wall, Li Feng understood, this thief army must have wanted to push the hostages directly under the city wall to cover their siege, he gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Listen to the soldiers, this battle is either you die or I live, the people outside the city are hijacked by the rebels and attack the city, just treat them as dead people, and fight for a while, whether it is the people or the barbarians, as long as they can breathe outside the city, they will be killed, do you understand!"

Since the last time Li Feng personally shot the hostages outside the city, the soldiers at the head of the city have also seen it, everyone knows that it is impossible to survive in the hands of these barbarians, not to mention that there are just some women and children outside, even if it is his own mother and son, this time he can't take care of much, so they all shed tears and shouted in unison: "Yes!"

As he spoke, the hostages had been pushed under the city wall, and the barbarians behind them were all holding shields, and they set up ladders on the city wall like a tide, and with knives in their mouths, they climbed up the ladder, like black pressed ants, covering the entire wall.

Li Feng yelled: "Shoot!" The defenders of the city all poked their heads out at once, and more than 130 crossbow arrows were fired in an instant, and the dense rain of arrows like flying locusts poured mercilessly towards the rebels under the city, while the people defending the city fiercely raised the rolling stones and woods, and smashed them at the crowd below the city.

The barbarians originally thought that the defenders of the city were bogeyed and did not dare to attack, so they climbed up the city one by one and were full of energy, and today the Zhou division raised a heavy reward, and the first warrior who rushed to the city could get a reward of thirty slaves and ten oxen, plus these were transferred from Shixing are the elite of the Zhou Shiju tribe, and they have not seen the tragic situation of attacking the city a while ago, and they are all scrambling for the first time, as if the slaves and cattle are beckoning to themselves at the head of the city.

But the top of the city was not slaves and oxen, but rows of ruthless crossbow arrows, at a distance of only a dozen paces, a thin layer of wooden shields could not be stopped, and many people were directly pierced by arrows through the shields, and then stabbed into their heads, and then the corpses rolled down the ladder, and smashed a few people behind, until they fell under the city.

The poor women and children also fell into bad luck, and their heads were covered with stones, arrows, rolling logs, and corpses, some of whom were stoned to death on the spot, and many more were so frightened that they hid in the base of the city wall, crouched down and cried loudly, and the scene was chaotic!

The rest of the barbarians bit their knives one by one, glared, and continued to crawl towards the city, aiming at the high bounty and the wizard's divine will of victory in this battle, even the soldiers who fell to the city slapped their butts and climbed up the ladder again! (To be continued......)
