"Look, brethren, they are gathered together in a heap in the east and a camel in the west, and they have no discipline at all, and they are only weaker than us...... By the time they have lined up and prepared their siege equipment, they will not be able to get the next day, and by then, the reinforcements will have already arrived......"

Knowing that the enemy was gathering troops and arranging an attack formation, Wang Shihua had to rely on nonsense to boost morale.

On the four or five miles long north city wall, there are a total of thousands of people, most of whom have not experienced battlefield experience, although Wang Shihua knows that he can't hold it, he has to rely on these people to be able to hold it until the next day. Of course, he also had selfish intentions and transferred the escort team sent by Zhang Cuiyun to the back as a supervising team.

The second dog on the side also shouted smartly: "My young master is right! Our county town is three feet high, the enemy has no siege equipment, if you want to attack in, you can only climb by hand, when the time comes, we just need to point their brains one by one, the white ocean is not easy to grasp one by one? ”

Although this is a bit of a bully, it is very useful, and some people actually laugh and cater to it.

As a result, as soon as the man's voice fell, everyone heard "Huh~!" Shout~! The voice came.

"Boom! Boom ......"

Five explosions, although not a single one fell on the city walls, blew up those who saw the shells for the first time with pale faces and trembling with fear. If it weren't for the fact that the person next to him was still there, and gave him psychological comfort, otherwise, he would have turned around and run away a long time ago. And in such a battlefield atmosphere, as long as one person escapes, a chain effect will occur, and eventually lead to the collapse of the entire defense.

"Hah! Ha! Ha ......" Wang Shihua laughed and said: "The enemy is really a fool, he can't bomb it at such a close distance, and the brothers, they all guard with peace of mind." Even if one or two rounds hit the city walls, no one would die. ”

This is the insight of real bullying. But Wang Shihua had to do this: he understood very well that the enemy's first shell was often a test shot, and after the distance was measured and adjusted, the second shot would be fatal.

Holding up the binoculars, sure enough, the enemy bullied us and did not have artillery, and actually swaggered four or five hundred meters away from the city wall, adjusting the grenadiers...... The weapons and equipment of the local warlords are absolutely not comparable to those of the Central Army, not to mention artillery, even grenadiers are very few. A dignified regiment, there are actually five grenadiers. Otherwise, if there were more grenadiers lined up, it would scare away the recruits defending the city.

"Huh~! Shout~! Whew......"

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

Five more shells flew in, this time with much more precision, three of them landed on the city walls, and the fire and resounding of the explosion definitely exceeded its actual lethality.

"Ah~!"

One of the unlucky recruits had a broken leg and was rolling on the ground wailing and bleeding.

The people next to him were all stunned, looking at him, their eyes were empty, and some even trembled.

"Smack! Syllable! ”

Wang Shihua hurriedly rushed over, killed this person with two shots, and shouted coldly: "What do you see?" Lay me down. ”

The people around came back to their senses, some of them lay on the ground and vomited, and four or five jumped up directly, threw away their guns, and screamed hysterically while running away in fear with a look of fear: "My mother! Run......"

"Smack! Syllable! ”

"Smack! Smack......"

Military law is ruthless, and there is no mercy to speak of at this time. Wang Shihua picked up a gun and shot it, and the people around him also shot at the four or five people.

After these people fell to the ground, Wang Shihua shouted to the surroundings with a hideous face: "Those who escape without permission will be killed!" Whoever dares to run away again and disturb the morale of the army, these people are role models. ”

Wang Shihua also wanted to vomit, killing so many people with his own hands at one time, everyone was uncomfortable, and everyone wanted to escape, but at this time, as the main general, he did not dare to show the slightest fear, otherwise, disaster would come immediately.

"Brothers on the other side, listen, your Commander Zhang has been surrounded by us, and it is difficult to protect himself, so I advise you not to resist anymore. Our regimental commander said: As long as the brothers put down their guns and come out with their heads in their hands, we will not only not pursue the matter, but also pay you the passage money. But if you dare to resist, when the city is broken, you and your families will be slaughtered! ”

Wang Shihua's face remained unchanged, but his eyes were much colder, and his heart was greatly annoyed: first hit the people with artillery, and then persuade them to surrender with their lives. It's a simple trick, but it's extremely useful.

Suddenly, a sneer appeared at the corner of Wang Shihua's mouth: The enemy is running for a long time, and there must not be much ammunition for grenadiers, otherwise, how can there be so much nonsense, as long as it is fired twice in a row, these recruits on his side will be frightened and flee.

Many people looked at it, their eyes flashed, obviously they were moved, and Wang Shihua had to speak.

"Brothers, don't listen to their nonsense, think about it with your brains, they are here to wash our Tiger Prison County in blood this time, how can they let us go? Lao Tzu dares to promise: as soon as we put down our guns, when they finish washing the county with blood, they will bury us all alive when they turn back...... Anyway, it's a death, so it's better to fight with them. Wang Shihua confidently shouted to the people around him: "The reason why the enemy wants to persuade us to surrender is because they have traveled a long way and come on a rapid march, and they will definitely not carry many shells. As long as we get past this level, the rest will hide on the walls and shoot their skulls...... I declare that if you kill an enemy, Lao Tzu will reward ten pieces of ocean. After the enemy is repulsed, all those who participate in the defense of the county will be rewarded with another twenty oceans each. ”

The so-called wealth is in danger! Wang Shihua's trick was really useful: half of these people came to the ocean, and when they heard that the price had doubled, the people who wanted to run away just now swallowed their saliva and looked back at the enemy outside the city. A small number of people saw that everyone was like this, so they could only shut up and obediently wait for the enemy to send them to the door.

"Ergouzi, find a few loud ones, shout to each other, we have to discuss, give us ten minutes."

Soon, a roar sounded from the city walls: "Give us ten minutes, and we will discuss." ”

A response soon came from the other side: "We have spoken, I will give you three minutes, and when the three minutes are up, the army will immediately attack the city, and those who dare to resist will be killed!" ”

At this moment, he saw the commander of the second battalion under Commander Qian running over, and whispered to Wang Shihua: "Sir, these people have never fought and are unreliable, you have to plan early." ”

"And what are your plans?"

"If you can't do anything, sir, brothers will escort you to retreat outside the city."

What kind of commander is really what kind of subordinate. Wang Shihua was furious, but after thinking about it, the other party was telling the truth: he was too naïve, thinking that he could make up for it by relying on the number of people, and as a result, the difference between recruits and veterans was revealed. Since the county can't be defended, and you all want to escape, then Lao Tzu is trying to have a fart by himself, and I am really invulnerable?

"Well, if that time comes, you will withdraw to my side with someone and go out of the city together."

"Yes!" Gu Camp Changxi: If it weren't for Zhang Wentian, who was afraid of being angry afterwards, to be held responsible, would he care about Wang Shihua's life or death? Now, since Wang Shihua is very good, he naturally wants to protect this shield afterwards and flee for his life together.

"Stone, didn't you say that you snipers are all small gunners? So far, is it sure? ”

Seeing the stone nodding, Wang Shihua was overjoyed: "Wait a minute, you support my order, and kill those guys who shoot artillery one by one." ”

More than two minutes later!

Wang Shihua saw that the other party was about to shoot again, and shouted to the stone: "Stone, kill them." ”

"Bang!"

The gunfire was a bit small and a little dull, but it worked well.

The guy in the middle of the enemy's grenadier position who was holding the grenadier suddenly had a little blood on his chest and fell backwards.

"Well played! Again! Wang Shihua patted the wall battlement and shouted excitedly, attracting the people around him to look at it.

"Bang!"

This time, the enemy did not fall, apparently missed.

Without Wang Shihua's orders, Tieshi shot again.

"Bang!"

A guy who was holding the shell to dodge was hit in the back of the head.

When the people around Wang Shihua saw that the iron stone was so good, they applauded, and for a while, their morale was greatly boosted.

No one is stupid. As soon as the enemy saw that two of his companions had been killed, they came back to their senses and fell directly to the ground with their heads in their hands.

Soon, he saw that more than two dozen piles of trees formed by branches were slowly pushed forward, gathered in front of the grenadier position, and formed a green block: the effective throwing distance of the grenadier made it impossible for it to retreat, and the purpose of these blocks was not to block the bullets, but to make the iron and stone invisible to the people behind the pile.

As soon as the arrangement was completed, the enemy could not wait for the artillery attack.

"Huh~! Shout~! Whew......"

Although the throwing distance of the grenadier is short, and the lethality cannot be compared with that of the cannon, it has two absolute advantages: first, it is light and easy to carry; Second, because as long as the shell is placed in the grenadier canister, it can be fired, which greatly shortens the firing distance between the two shells, so to speak, continuous fire.

This time, the enemy fully corrected Wang Shihua's mistake: they just fired continuously without interruption. At the same time, their infantry began to charge.

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

The walls trembled, roared and shook the sky, and the firelight flickered...... The sound of the explosion was like the roar of death; clouds of near-red mushrooms, like the scythe of death; The screams are heartbreaking...... The earth trembled, the Grim Reaper laughed wildly, the weak hearts wailed, and the smell of blood mixed with the smell of gunpowder perfectly showed the cruelty of war.

"Mom! You're going to up......"

"Run! We can't hold ......."

"Run, ......"

At first, everyone didn't come to their senses, but as more and more shells fell, the recruits on the walls collapsed. I don't know who jumped up and ran away first, and the people around him instinctively ran away with him...... Fortunately, the camel was clever and led the team to kill a few people, but as soon as he saw that everyone began to run away, he didn't dare to stop it, and it was important to protect Wang Shihua.

The ancient battalion commander also brought people over, and he shouted far away: "Sir, you can't hold it, hurry up...... Come on! ”

Looking at the miserable appearance of the people fleeing on the city wall and the bombed people turning over on their backs, Wang Shihua sighed in his heart: A few shells can decide the victory or defeat, it's really ridiculous!

At this moment, Wang Shihua suddenly understood a truth: weapons are really important!

And on the mountain outside the city, Chen Hui, who was watching the battlefield on horseback, looked up to the sky and laughed: "The rabble, dare to defend the city? Pass my order: Siege! ”
