The defenders at the head of the city were busy carrying pots of boiling water and boiling oil to the head of the city, as well as the secret weapon of the city today, twenty pots of boiling hot golden soup.

The name of the golden soup is very good, but in fact it is human feces, mixed with boiling water and boiling oil, the enemy army poured it down when attacking the city, in addition to causing burns, it will also infect and fester, it is the oldest biological and chemical weapon, and it is also the secret weapon that Li Feng specially prepared when defending the city today, used to defend the city gate, for this reason, Li Feng collected the feces of the whole city for the past two days, boiled twenty pots of golden soup, and prepared to use it at the most critical time.

Zhou Shiju, who was two miles away from the city, was like a fierce beast at this time, walking back and forth restlessly, staring at the burning city gate with his eyes, about to drip blood, from the billowing black smoke, he seemed to see the streets and houses in the city, just waiting for his order, these more than 10,000 barbarian soldiers rushed into the city, and the whole city could be drowned in a pool of blood.

Ren Gui kept standing in place, his eyebrows twisted into a Sichuan character, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to the city gate that was collapsing in the distance, and his voice was full of surprise: "Zhou Shuai, the city gate has fallen!"

Li Feng at the head of the city coldly watched the gate that had been burned into black charcoal collapse violently, he turned his head to Liu Zicai and said: "Prepare for battle, all the crossbows are concentrated here, the enemy army will shoot intensively within fifty steps, and the enemy troops who storm the city gate will directly pour gold soup to serve!"

The long knife raised by Zhou Shi had already been raised, and more than 5,000 barbarians roared and rushed towards the embers of the city wall this time, and the huge battering ram of Nafu had been burned to the ground, and he was paralyzed at the gate of the city weakly, and the fire was full of charred corpses. But all they had in their eyes was the fallen gate. Behind the city gate were dense piles of sandbags. As long as you move these bags away, you will definitely be able to rush in and kill them!

Three or four leaders in leather armor stood a hundred paces away, commanding their men to rush up, and those who climbed the city wall still climbed the wall, while three or four hundred people surrounded the city gate, braving the crossbow bolts that were constantly being fired at the head of the city, and kept moving out the sandbags that were blocking the doorway, and some of them had just turned around with the sandbags on their heads. The crossbow bolts were immediately hit in the back, and the people around them quickly bent down and carried the sandbags and continued to pile them up towards the base of the city wall.

Li Feng yelled: "Pour the golden soup, quickly!"

Two or three pots of stinking golden soup were thrown down in a pot, and a heart-rending scream came out from the dense group of barbarians, this dense formation was covered with wooden shields, which could defend against bows and arrows, but it could not stop this hot soup, and more than a hundred people were covered with blisters and feces at once, and they rolled on the ground in pain. I can't even bother to move the sandbag.

Several leaders standing in the rear of the formation saw that the momentum was not right, and immediately waved their hands. Hundreds of barbarian crossbowmen stepped forward one after another, ran to a distance of more than 30 paces, and shot at the head of the city, although only one-third of the arrows hit the head of the city, and the rest more shot their own people, but also shot dozens of people in the city were poisoned and fell to the ground, and even a few sergeants who were falling down with the oil pot were also hit by arrows, and fell to the ground, and the hot oil pot smashed to the head of the city at once, and more than ten people nearby rolled on the ground.

Taking advantage of the small chaos at the head of the city, dozens of barbarians finally climbed up to the head of the city, wielding the big knife in the mouth, and cutting people when they saw them, and the soldiers at the head of the city also held their own knives and spears, and fought with them.

Several guards around Li Feng also joined the battle, and Liu Zicai had become the captain of the fire brigade at the head of the city, running around with dozens of sergeants, attacking and killing the brute soldiers who climbed the wall when they saw them, and kicking them off when they saw a ladder on the wall.

Li Feng watched the enemy troops at the city gate gather more and more, and more than a hundred sandbags were moved by the enemy, and the sandbags piled under the city wall even became a ladder for many enemy soldiers to put their feet on, he shouted: "Quick, pour oil, pour tung oil, throw torches!"

Five or six hot pots of tung oil were thrown down, more than a hundred soldiers threw away the torches in their hands, and a raging fire rose again under the city, although it did not burn out a barrier of dozens of steps just now, but it also made the ghosts under the city cry wolf howl, and the barbarians who climbed the wall jumped down one after another, turned around and fled backwards.

The barbarians at the head of the city had no backup, and were killed by the defenders one after another, and the mutilated corpses were thrown under the city again, and the smell of roasted meat wafted from the whole city.

Forty or fifty crossbow arrows were fired at the barbarians who fled backwards in the fire, and thirty or forty slow-running barbarians fell out of the fire again.

Zhou Shiju thrust the knife into the ground fiercely, and shouted: "Order, rest for half an hour, and attack me again!" Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, this broken city can't be taken!"

Ren Gui suddenly laughed: "Zhou Shuai, look at those sandbags and soil bags, I have a way to take the city now." ”

Zhou Shiju snorted dissatisfiedly: "Ren Sima, you have a way again!" Every time you have a way, my people will die hundreds of thousands, but this city still can't be taken, you see this time, I have lost six or seven hundred brothers, all thanks to your method!"

Ren Gui smiled and pointed to the city wall: "Before this attack, I didn't expect that Li Feng's thieves would block so many sandbags behind the city gate, so the city gate did not rush in, but even so, it can be seen that the defenders have reached the limit, and their crossbow arrows can no longer stop the impact of our army, this is the first time we have so many people pounced on the city wall!" Although we have lost six or seven hundred men, we have killed three or four hundred. ”

Zhou Shiju crooked his mouth, and the muscles painted with oil paint on his face moved: "So what, they have no crossbow arrows, they can still set fire to the city, we have to take human lives to fill in the city, Ren Sima, are you happy that I captured this Donghengzhou and killed 10,000 people?" ”

Ren Zhuo had a strange smile on his face: "What's the matter, now it will be six or seven thousand, in my opinion, at most three or four hundred will die, and this city will be taken." ”

Zhou Shiju shook his head in disbelief: "Ren Sima, you are too trusting, right, just this style, if you don't die two thousand people, can you attack it?" ”

Ren Gui nodded seriously, pointed to the sandbags under the city, and said with a smile: "Zhou Shuai, please look, then Li Feng also reminded us that there is no need to carry ladders to attack the city, only need to pile sandbags, this Donghengzhou City has a low wall, and dozens of sandbags and dirtbags are piled under the city, our soldiers can directly rush to the city, as long as they go to the city, now they still have two or three hundred soldiers to fight, are you afraid that you can't attack it?" And with bags of sand, they won't be able to use their fire attack plans!"

Master Zhou's eyes lit up, and he laughed proudly: "Good plan, good plan!" Ren Sima, you are really too talented, just do as you say!"

Three hours later, the sandbags outside the east city of Donghengzhou have been piled up more than a zhang high, although the barbarians are generally not tall, but if they stand on the sandbags, their heads are almost flush with the city saucer, although the crossbow arrows at the head of the city are still firing non-stop, but forty or fifty crossbow arrows can not stop thousands of barbarians from piling hundreds of sandbags under the city like ants moving, and the barbarians who shoot to death will give a few barbarians around them and even throw sandbags under the city wall to make filling.

The boiling water and boiling oil were still pouring down, but this time the barbarians were all proficient, and they didn't run under the city wall at all, and threw the sandbags to the root of the wall after five or six steps, and the tung oil fire technique was also used twice, and the earthen bags were crushed before they could be burned.

Li Feng sat motionless in the gatehouse, writing his suicide note, and the staff member Zhang Daolin beside him kept sighing: "Ming Gong, while the enemy army has not yet entered the city, it is better to quickly take the people to escape from the north gate, and enter the South Ridge, maybe there is still a way to live." ”

Li Feng shook his head indifferently: "They are all old and weak women and children, and they can't escape far, besides, as an assassin, this official has the responsibility of defending the land, so many soldiers and people have died in the city, how can I escape alone!" Daolin, this letter records the whole process of this battle, and when the decisive battle is a while, you take the opportunity to go out of the city from the west gate, hide in Dazeli in the west of the city, and wait for the reinforcements from the imperial court to come, show them this, and tell the imperial court, I, Li Feng, and the soldiers and civilians of Donghengzhou have done their best!"

A low and mighty drum horn suddenly floated in the distance, Li Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and the person also bulleted: "That's, that's the horn of my Great Sui Army, hahaha, the reinforcements have arrived, we have been saved!" (To be continued......)
