Chapter 67 Thunderclouds are captured
In order to break through Wancheng as soon as possible, Lei Yun ordered the soldiers to carry mounds of soil on their backs, and under the city tower, small mountain bags were piled up, but gradually the soil was piled up more and more, and they were almost piled up into a hill.
Lei Yun ordered: "Whoever stands on the tower first will be rewarded with a thousand rewards." ”
To say that there must be brave men under heavy rewards, this is an unchanging truth since ancient times.
At this time, one after another, the soldiers climbed up the mountain like ants, and each soldier showed a greedy look at the nearby tower, as if the gold coin was already in his pocket.
Zhang Yunyi frowned as he looked at the soldiers who followed one after another under the city tower, and he ordered the archers to release their arrows, although they shot down many people, they still kept climbing up the mountain.
And the thundercloud's catapult is also constantly firing, and the fire meteors are blasting towards the city wall, but the thickness of the city wall is really staggering.
"General Zhang, the enemy army is attacking, what should we do?"
Zhang Yunyi sneered: "Throw down the oil and burn them." ”
"But there is not enough oil in the city, and I am afraid that there will not be so much for a while. ”
"Throw as many as you want. ”
"Yes, General. ”
A can of fire oil was thrown down, several people shot rockets and ignited, and suddenly the fire borrowed the wind, and the Lei Yun army was killed and wounded, and Zhang Yunyi's army also replenished the fire oil from time to time, causing the city to instantly turn into a sea of fire, wailing, screaming, this up, the soldiers who wanted to live fled the battlefield one after another.
There was no time to run nearby, and those who wanted to avoid the fire climbed up the hill one after another, but the mountain was made of earth after all, and the fire was so roasted that the hill could not bear the weight and buried everyone alive.
This terrible fire smoked the people in the city tower, and their eyes were painful and tearful, not only the smoke, but also the temperature of the fire also made the people in the city feel as if they were in a baking pot.
Guo Ziyi said: "General Zhang, the temperature of this city tower is too high, it is better for us to leave first, looking at this form, the enemy army should not attack the city." ”
"You go first, I'll stay here. ”
Zhang Yunyi was afraid that Lei Yun would take advantage of the chaos to attack, so he stuck to the city, and Lei Yun chose to retreat at the moment, looking at the Lei Yun who left, Zhang Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief, although he thought he was invincible in the world, but war is not something that can be decided by one person, and many times it still needs to be solved by the number of people.
On the other side, because the previous fire meteor happened to hit the inn where Ye Xianze and the others lived, in desperation, he could only carry his sister to the wide street, and when he saw the innkeeper crying like killing a pig, he could only express sympathy.
Seeing that Xiao Lin in his arms was still asleep peacefully, he felt a little interesting, "This little girl, she can still sleep with such a big movement, it's too heartless." ”
But after thinking about it, when they came here, even if there was no hardship, there were thousands of hardships, so they let her sleep, but now there was no place in the city that was safe, so he could only find a place that seemed safer to hide.
He looked around, and saw a temple in front of him, and he hurriedly walked in, only to realize that not only the two of them, but also some people had been here for a long time.
Judging by what they were wearing, it should be ordinary people, so he immediately found a place to lean on and sat down.
By night, the soldiers patrolling the tower were already dazed, and they felt very tired from the day's fighting.
Suddenly, one of them said in a panic: "Hey, big cow, what do you see? ”
The man named Da Niu looked at it and said, "Could it be that we are too tired, we are wrong." ”
"No, did you hear anything?"
"You have to say that, it's like the sound of wheels rolling. ”
"Oh no, it's ......" Before he could finish speaking, he had already been shot through the chest.
The soldiers guarding the tower hurriedly beat the gongs and drums, and the soldiers leaning against the back of the city wall took up their weapons.
"It's the Arrow Tower. Someone said.
That's right, the moving wood they saw was the Arrow Tower, and on this night, Thundercloud decided to use the Arrow Tower to raid.
As soon as Zhang Yunyi received the news, he immediately rushed to the city tower, but at this time, the enemy army had already set up wooden planks from the arrow tower and put them on the city wall.
Enemy troops poured out of the towers.
Zhang Yunyi's eyes were quick, and he shot down a few people, but the soldiers still kept climbing the arrow tower to fill the vacancy.
"Use the oil quickly. Zhang Yunyi shouted.
"No, General, the oil has run out. Guo Ziyi said.
"Then kill me, and don't let the enemy take over the city. ”
In the face of the tidal wave of thundercloud troops, Zhang Yunyi not only had to deal with the soldiers who attacked, but also had to be on guard against the arrows that came from time to time.
Dozens of arrow towers surrounded Wancheng like this, he didn't have a doppelganger technique, there was no way to take care of every place, Lei Yun took advantage of this weakness, and chose to attack at night when they were lax.
"Brother Lei, do you think we can capture Wancheng this time?"
"I don't know, Zhang Yunyi, who is guarding the city, is not an ordinary person, we have to prepare for the worst. ”
Zhang Yunyi knew that these would only turn into a war of attrition, so he beckoned Guo Ziyi to defend the city instead of him, and he chose to open the city gate.
Ling Liang said, "Why did the city gate open?"
"Oh no, Zhang Yunyi chose to give up defense and directly chose to attack. ”
That's right, Zhang Yunyi led the army to kill it, and the people who were just about to climb the arrow tower were all killed by Zhang Yunyi, and after Zhang Yunyi captured the arrow tower, no soldiers rushed to die.
Because the arrow tower lost its replenishment, the pressure on the city was greatly reduced, and the people on the arrow tower did not know that they were surrounded, and tried to rush up the city tower and take Wancheng, but they did not know that they had no way out.
In the face of Zhang Yunyi's murderous revenge, Lei Yunjun was not his opponent at all, he died when he saw it, and he was injured when he rubbed it.
The soldiers were all afraid of Zhang Yunyi's strength, and none of them could compete with him.
Lei Yun shouted, "I'll stop him, Ling Liang, you retreat with the soldiers." ”
"Brother Lei, I'm with you. ”
"No, do your thing, I don't want to say it a second time. ”
I saw Lei Yun riding a horse, stabbing out with a gun, to take Zhang Yunyi's head, Zhang Yunyi dodged sideways, put the gun away, and hit Lei Yun's arm is a blow, if this shot is hit, Lei Yun's hand is afraid that it will be wasted, Lei Yun saw this, fell back, and Zhang Yunyi's shot fell short.
Seeing this, Zhang Yunyi took advantage of the victory to pursue, and a shot was chopped down, and the thundercloud blocked the spear, because the explosive power of this gun was too high, the horse could not withstand this fierce power and died violently.
Lei Yun lost his support, fell off his horse, and was captured by Zhang Yunyi.
"Lei Yun, you captured Wancheng today, but your attack also made me realize that the strongest defense is offense, and for a person like me who is not good at defense, it is the most suitable way to play. ”
Lei Yun didn't speak, and let the soldiers of Zhang Yun's righteous army take him away, Ling Liang wanted to come to the rescue, but in order to take into account the overall situation, he led the main force to leave first.
When Thundercloud was taken away, Ye Xianze saw him, although he hadn't seen him for a long time, but he recognized it at a glance, he thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to let them take Thundercloud away, after all, rescuing Thundercloud now will only drag himself down, he must wait for an opportunity.
But he still quietly followed, and after figuring out the location of Lei Yun's detention, he retreated, in order to hide people's eyes, he still carried Ye Lin on his back, but she still slept soundly along the way, and he now felt sincere admiration for his little sister.
After returning to the temple, he held Xiao Lin in his arms to warm each other, the temple was too cold at night, so he could barely resist like this, but he didn't dare to sleep, because this place was mixed, and he was afraid of encountering any danger.
At this time, a middle-aged man came over and said, "I'm resting next to you, don't you mind!"
Ye Xianze looked at him with a look of disgust and said, "This place is so big, why do you have to crowd together?"
The man smiled lewdly: "I just saw you go out with the officers and soldiers, I followed, guess what I found?"
"What did you find?" Ye Xianze asked rhetorically.
"Don't play dumb with me, the enemy commander was captured, and your eyes have been on him, I have noticed it. ”
"What do you mean?" Ye Xianze asked.
He smiled and said, "Nothing interesting? You know, if I tell the generals about your whereabouts, I can't guarantee your fate." ”
"You threaten me?" Ye Xianze was already really angry at this moment.
The middle-aged man said: "I just threaten you, what can you do, just ask me to keep a secret and pay a price." ”
"What do you want?" Ye Xianze said.
"Now that there are wars everywhere, I don't necessarily have money to spend, so I don't want money. ”
"Then what do you want?" Ye Xianze had already moved to kill at this moment.
The man drooled and said, "I just want the beauty in your arms, just for one night." ”
"You're looking for death. Ye Xianze really didn't expect that he would dare to hit his sister with the idea, he slashed it with a knife in one hand, this move was fast, accurate, and ruthless, and that person didn't expect Ye Xianze to suddenly make a move, and without defense, his neck was broken and he lost his breath.
Fortunately, most people had fallen asleep now, and no one noticed his actions, so he carried Ye Lin away from here and went to another place to rest, originally thinking about how to rescue Thundercloud, but because of this little episode, his mind was confused.
He knew he could only wait for one chance, one chance to save the thunderclouds.
