Only a suffocating whistling sound was heard, and dozens of fireballs fell from the sky without warning, instantly smashing and paralyzing several houses in the Taiwei Mansion. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 In the howl of the ghost crying, the fire suddenly burned, and more than a dozen unlucky people were stoned to death on the spot. People like Miss Li who were awakened seemed to have suddenly returned to that unbearable night more than half a year ago.
But there has been a painful lesson, and some experience will always be learned, not to mention that the men in the house are waiting for the day, and this time they will not be too flustered to deal with it, and the men will lead the women to run out of the room with the children in their arms. And Miss Li, who had long been accustomed to sleeping in thick clothes, went downstairs calmly and stood in the middle of the open courtyard. Judging from their experience, this kind of ghost trick did not last long, and it was over after a little evasion.
Moreover, after the last time it was burned to white ground, the newly built Taiwei Mansion was mostly made of brick and stone structure, and there were firebreaks and fire ditches between the courtyards, so it is believed that the tragic situation of burning the company camp is unlikely to be repeated.
The soldiers of the Tiance Army are also ready to go on the school field, and when the general appears, they will rush out of the house and kill the clowns who dare to attack.
But they clearly underestimated the wisdom of their opponents.
Under the protection of a cadre of guards, Li Qing boarded the lookout post, only to see that the long street outside the mansion was deserted, but the meteors flying in the sky were fierce and long-lasting, as if they were about to raze the Taiwei Mansion to the ground.
Li Qing frowned and looked in the direction where the 'Flying Fire Meteor' was coming, and suddenly realized: "What a cunning boy, it turns out that he wants to 'lure the snake out of the hole'!" Li Erhe, who was beside him, sneered and said, "Let them try what it means to be invincible." After speaking, he turned around and pedaled down the lookout, and was about to turn over and get on the horse, but Uncle Nai stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't worry, since Qin Yutian has set up this cover, we can't jump in stupidly." It is said that although Li Qing is usually an ordinary person, he is unambiguous in the battle formation.
Li Erhe raised his eyebrows and laughed: "The grasshopper shakes the tree." Then he turned over and commanded: "Assemble the team, the target is two miles to the south!" "Li Qing is now the secretary of the military department, and the big and small affairs in the Tiance army are all decided by Li Eryi. It is taken for granted that he thinks that whether or not to send troops should be up to him.
This made the captains quite embarrassed, and they turned their eyes to Li Qing for help, hoping that he could help them behave as people. I only heard Li Qing smile and said, "It's better to send a team of people out to have a look first, and then make plans." ”
The captains were overjoyed and said, "Lord Shangshu is old-fashioned. Someone volunteered and ordered a troop of cavalry to rush out. The second son, who was about to attack in a big way, was so angry that his nose was crooked.
The gates of the Captain's Mansion opened, and a squad of fully armored cavalry roared out, rushing towards the direction where the fire grenade was fired.
Two miles later, the cavalry could clearly see the hateful fireballs fired from the large courtyard across the long street.
The captain of the team screamed strangely, and rushed along the long glittering street, and the soldiers saw that the leader was like this, and they all fought bravely to be the first, lest they fall behind. In a breath, the team reached the foot of the high wall, and even by the light of the fire, the mottled wood grain on the gate could be clearly seen.
The team leader, Lieutenant Zhen, was about to give the order to break down the door, but he heard a rustling sound on the wall, and hurriedly looked up, and was shocked to find a row of black crossbowmen appearing on the wall, and the sound was the sound of the crossbowmen hanging the strings...... These people should have been here for a long time, but the uniforms of the same color as the night confused the captain's vision.
"Royal!" The lieutenant shouted as he reached behind his back, but it was a little late, and with a suffocating whooshing sound, sharp crossbow arrows were fired at the knights.
It's so close! The seven or eight horsemen who rushed ahead were shot off their horses before they could raise their shields, but the captain of the team, because he had discovered it early, raised his shield to block the two arrows that were fired at him, and while turning his horse's head, he hurriedly shouted: "After! ”
The remaining dozens of horsemen were in a panic, the rear team grabbed the reins of the horses, stopped the castration, and the front team rode their horses back from both sides, and after losing a dozen lives, they were out of the range of the enemy soldiers at the head of the wall.
The captain of the team was miraculously safe and sound, but the horse under him was hit by an arrow in the buttocks, and after running for a while, his hooves trembled, as if he was swinging. When he took hold of the reins, the horse stumbled and threw him out.
The soldiers hurriedly dismounted and helped Lord Pi Lieutenant up, and Lord Pi Lieutenant nervously touched his arms and legs, and found that he was not injured at all except for making a fuss, and couldn't help but say: "This luck, it's time for Ming'er to gamble." ”
The soldiers on the side were just about to laugh, but he kicked them away one by one and scolded in a low voice: "Don't be here with a poor mouth!" Before we could go back to report the news, we said that we were being blocked by the other side and asked for instructions from the adults. Seeing that he said that he would turn his face, he would turn his face, how dare his subordinates slack off, and hurry back to report the news.
On the wall, a middle-aged general dressed in a black coat stood solemnly, staring fixedly at the Flying Fire Meteor that streaked across the night sky, and did not look at the team of Tiance cavalry under his feet at all.
Looking at the flying fire meteor dragging the beautiful tail flame, every time it lands, a beautiful golden chrysanthemum will bloom, and when more than 30 chrysanthemums burst together, the entire Taiwei Mansion is brightly reflected...... After a quarter of an hour of continuous blowing, the fire finally ignited unstoppably.
After a long time, the general came back to his senses and said to a calm colleague beside him: "Brother Shi, our 'Flying Stone Divine Car'...... In the future, you have to protect it, and this thing must not fall into the hands of others. ”
The person who was called Master Shi was Shi Yong, who had not been seen for a long time, and he only nodded and smiled: "What Brother Huangfu said is extremely true, but in fact, as long as this thing is removed from the machine spring, hook and other key points, it is useless for the rest of the parts to be snatched by others." ”
Huangfu's eldest brother is Huangfu Zhanwen, the commander-in-chief of today's battle against the Li family, after he received the order yesterday, he and Shen Qing took most of the Jingshan battalion together, day and night, and only arrived outside the city after dark. didn't even see Qin Lei's face, so he received the order for the next step.
Qin Lei's request for him was only eight words: 'Beat Li Hun to cry and call his father.' This order hit his heart, and the fatigue of running all the way was suddenly swept away, and he ran to Xicheng to take full command of the operation.
His surname gave him the power to take revenge, which was why Qin Lei used him instead of Yang Wenyu...... To deal with a national lieutenant who has held military power for 20 years, it is first necessary to overcome psychological obstacles. And the people of the Huangfu family have unique advantages.
He knows the Li family too well and knows their strengths and weaknesses: if he takes a team that has just formed an army for less than half a year to go to the Taiwei Mansion to attack the fortifications, there are not enough people to fill in. Naturally, it is better to lure them out, obliterate the advantage of the cavalry, and shoot them with crossbows.
Therefore, he decisively hid his large forces from the battlefield, and he himself took a long-range squadron and a squadron of crossbowmen into the preset firing position. Adopt the method of luring the snake out of the hole, relying on the high wall, and condescending to deal with the cavalry of the Li family.
Shi Yong accompanied him as his deputy, as well as the commander of the special brigade. The two didn't say a few words, and they saw the Tiance cavalry coming from a distance again, and Huangfu Zhanwen laughed softly: "Control the string cavalry." Then he commanded the herald, "Let the people below hide for a while, and then come up when these rabbits have retreated." ”
The herald blew his whistle twice, and the soldiers who heard the order left the 'stone cart' and took refuge under the pre-set cover.
It has been said, 'Often your enemies are the ones who know you best.' That's not bad at all. Huangfu Zhanwen could indeed understand everything about the Li family, and even their attack habits were well understood.
Sure enough, seeing that the group of cavalry was approaching, the group of cavalry that had stopped in front of the courtyard at first did not let go, but instead used themselves as a barrier for their comrades, allowing the cavalry behind to calmly draw their bows and shoot.
A bowstring sounded, and the dense feather arrows flew obliquely into the sky, the speed was not fast, but it was enough to fly to the height of ** zhang, and with the momentum of falling from the sky, it shot quickly into the courtyard.
Projectile, irresistible projectile...... Either in the ground or in the wooden beams of the stone cart. After a burst of shooting, there was no damage in the courtyard except for the sparse grass that seemed to grow.
Huangfu Zhanwen leaned behind the wall, looked at the feathered arrows that jingled to the ground, and laughed loudly at Shi Yong: "After three waves of volleys, the charging cavalry will assault, and if we shoot arrows to block, we will be fiercely attacked by the string control cavalry." So fight back within three waves. ”
Looking at the way he dances, where is there still a little bit of the deep and steady of the past. Shi Yong smiled helplessly: "Brother Huangfu is extremely excited today. ”
Huangfu Zhanwen laughed and said: "Yes, defeating the Tiance Army is the biggest long-cherished wish in my life!" Then he said to the heralds: "Send a signal to the east and order them to fire five rounds without interruption." ”
A green flare rises into the air.
Just when the Tiance cavalry was shooting desperately, another firing position hidden two miles away to the east was on fire, and a fire oil bomb was whizzing from the sky, and it was falling in a dense place where the cavalry was concentrated, and the cavalry scattered in all directions to dodge. With a bang, incandescent flames several feet high lit up on the entire long street, enveloping all the cavalry.
Suddenly, a frightened cry rang out from outside the wall. Huangfu Zhanwen climbed the ladder to the top of the wall, looking at the dazzling white light that soared into the sky, he laughed and said: "The ashes are gone......
Before he could close his mouth, he saw that the flames had miraculously disappeared, and the cavalrymen who had just disappeared in the flames outside the wall were all safe and sound, except for one that was killed by the incessant fire oil bombs...... It's just smoked black.
Huangfu Zhanwen was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth and said, "What's the matter?" Isn't this thing the boss? ”
Looking at the enemy soldiers who were still in a mess, Shi Yong scratched his head and said uncertainly: "Although the materials are good, it seems that there is one condition missing." But this was obviously not the time to study the matter, and I saw him wave the order flag in his hand, and a yellow signal flare rose into the sky. Immediately after, countless black-armored archers appeared on the rooftops on both sides of the street, and they did not hesitate to shoot the crossbow arrows in their hands towards the center of the street.
A rain of arrows rained down from the sky, covering the terrified Celestial Cavalry. Where did the cavalry still have the mood to fight the enemy, and they all planned their horses, wanting to escape from this ghost place for the time being, so as to regroup and make plans again.
Unexpectedly, the war horse was already frightened stupid by the sudden incandescent flames just now, and even let the master drive him, he stood still on the ground, and after being shot by a sharp arrow, he screamed and ran away, and even threw some cavalrymen with bows and arrows off their horses.
The casualties of the Tiance army were large, and I saw that the cavalry fell off their horses like dumplings in the rain of arrows, and after a while, they lost thirty percent, lost nearly a hundred lives, and the rest fled in a hurry.
Huangfu Zhanwen wiped the white sweat on his head, and smiled gratefully at Shi Yong: "If it weren't for my brother, I almost missed the fighter." Shi Yong smiled honestly, waved his hand and said, "The little brother has overpassed, please don't blame the eldest brother Huangfu." ”
Huangfu Zhanwen waved his hand and instructed the herald: "After five rounds of salvos, dismantle the 'Flying Stone Car', we should fight and retreat." After speaking, he smiled at Shi Yong: "If you don't leave, you won't be able to go at all." ”
Shi Yong nodded and said in a deep voice, "It's time for us to join Brother Shen." ”
After five volleys, the soldiers removed the cart's frame, stacked the unused fuel bombs on the side of the cart, and withdrew through the back door. At this time, Li Erhe, who was embarrassed and angry, was personally leading the team to rush here.
The archers on the roof slowly retreated to the sides while harassing the enemy with arrows, and if the Tiance army really wanted to deal with them, they would definitely not be able to escape. But Li Erhe, the goal of the wild boar, was straight ahead, and where could he take care of them, so that the shooters could escape calmly.
After a while, the front team rushed to the door, broke into the door without encountering any resistance, and looked at the strange monsters neatly arranged all over the courtyard, and the soldiers were quite surprised to hold the reins of their horses and look at each other.
Li Erhe quickly got the news, separated left and right to the front of the battle, looked at the large utensils in the courtyard, and couldn't help but be surprised: "They actually let the trebuchet stay here?" As a general who has been fighting horses for many years, he naturally understands the importance of this thing.
In just an instant, he decided to take down these divine weapons first. 'Don't let the other side destroy this place, it's more important than catching the murderer. Li Erhe said calmly in his heart.
I have to admit that the man of the Li family is just confused in front of Li Hun and can't help but be stupid. Once you get rid of the horrible old thing, you will return to your normal mind...... Otherwise, with Lao Li Tou alone, even if he has three heads and six arms, he will not be able to develop the Li family into today's behemoth.
So he's not stupid at this point, so he won't rush in. He first sent one of the hapless soldiers in, and when he walked around the inside, he found that there was no mechanism, and then he sent a dozen soldiers in and removed the fire oil bombs that were piled all over the ground from the trebuchet.
Watching his subordinates carefully remove those dangerous things that were not left behind, Li Erhe sneered: "Isn't it just to lure Lao Tzu in, and then launch the 'Flying Fire Meteor' to detonate the fire oil bomb?" It's too much to underestimate Lao Tzu," Thinking of this, he couldn't help grinning: "If it's so simple to be able to win the scheme, can Lao Tzu still be the general of Tiance?" Naturally, his subordinates were full of rhetoric.
After the fire oil bomb was cleared, Li Erhe waved his hand, and more knights dismounted and went in, shouldering their hands to move the heavy trebuchet out of here.
I only heard Li Erhe laugh happily: "There are no fire oil bombs now, I want to see how they detonate it." After saying that, he rode his horse in, and the demonstrator generally stood in the middle of the field, laughing at the mistakes of his opponents. Now that the courtyard is surrounded by the Tiance Army, he is not afraid of being attacked by bows and arrows.
On a private house in the distance, Shi Yong withdrew the 'clairvoyant mirror' in his hand, stretched out his thumb, and praised sincerely: "Brother Huangfu, you have thought the Li family thoroughly. ”
Huangfu Zhanwen had recovered from the initial excitement, and said with a cold smile: "People are not afraid of not being smart, not afraid of being too smart, just afraid of only a little cleverness." As he spoke, he clenched his fists and commanded in a deep voice: "Send Li Ergongzi on the road." ”
The herald replied abruptly: "Yes." With that, a red flare was fired.
In the dark night sky, a little bright red suddenly appeared, which looked so strange and gorgeous.
Li Erhe looked up at the bewitching red, and a trace of uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart, and he was about to ride his horse towards the door.
