Chapter 65: The Dilemma Coalition
Since ancient times, siege warfare has been mostly bloody. Even if it is a genius like Sun Tzu and Zhuge Liang, he is unwilling to face siege warfare. It is said that the siege is the next. Yang Zilu, who watched the siege battle for the first time, couldn't help but be shocked by this blood.
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ...... "Countless rockets, like meteor showers, flew under the city walls, brilliant and beautiful. Even some of the attacking biracial coalition forces were attracted by it, but behind this dazzling beauty, there was a brutal murderous intent.
"Poof!" A rocket landed on the edge of the shield, and the soldiers of the two clans holding the shield did not have time to rejoice, and the rocket arrows that fell on the shield suddenly flew out more than a dozen sparks the size of soybeans. Suddenly it fell on the soldier's cheek, and the sting of the flames caused the soldier to let out a terrible wail.
There were several rockets that fell on one person at the same time, the fire was not extinguished, and the animal skin on the person also burned and fell, and all of a sudden, the upper body of the person turned into a burning man, and the terrible wail that even Yang Zilu couldn't help but feel cold, not to mention the alliance of the two clans facing such a threat. The tempting aroma of barbecue emanating from the body made people can't help but be nauseous for the first time, and they have no appetite. Perhaps recently, many people are afraid to eat barbecue.
The morale of the allied forces of the two clans was severely damaged. But in fact, there were not many dead and wounded, but only about 20 people. Among the more than 1,500 people, more than 20 people occupy a very small weight. But the problem is that the death is too miserable, especially the poignant wail that penetrates people's hearts. Even if the hard-hearted heart heard it, it couldn't help but fluctuate, let alone ordinary people.
"Attack!" Although he was shocked by the terrifying lethality of the rocket, he also knew that his morale could not be discouraged, and he roared loudly. Amid the roar of the Warriors, the soldiers continued to attack, but this time the attack was obviously much weaker than just now, giving people a slightly perfunctory feeling.
"Let's change to normal arrows!" Yang Zilu took a deep look at the bottom and commanded.
"Yes!" Yang Tugou's voice trembled a little, obviously he was also shocked by the terrifying power of the rocket.
"Also, go elsewhere and see what the other four walls are doing! Return to me! Yang Zilu paused and continued.
"Yes!" Yang Tugou answered again, and quickly walked down the stairs.
When Yang Zilu spoke, the alliance of the two clans was already close to the city wall, after all, the range of the bow and arrow was only about sixty meters, and if he ran wildly, even with equipment, the slowest time was only eleven or twelve seconds.
Yang Zilu waved his hand at Yang Tugou, came to the edge of the battlement, and stared at the battle below.
The allied forces of the two clans set up ladders on the battlements, and there were also brave people who directly pierced their spears into the city wall, and climbed the city wall with the spears, after all, the city wall was only one and a half zhang high, in other words, three meters.
But Yang Zilu was not prepared, and soon someone sniped the brave people in the alliance army of the two clans with crossbows from the corner towers on both sides. There were also people who shot rockets at the ladder on both sides, and now the wind was high and dry, and if it was too late to put out the fire, the ladder would suddenly burn, cutting off the back road of the clansmen who had gone up to the city wall. Some of the ladders were even shot by several rockets, and they didn't have time to save them, and they had already turned into flames in the howling north wind.
Yang Zilu took a look and found that although the eastern city wall where he was sitting was fiercely fought, the battle was still under the control of the Jiukui Department. Yang Zilu cast his vision on the other four city walls, and although Jiukui City was changed to a city by Yang Zilu, it was actually not big. It's just a small town that can barely accommodate about 1,200 or 300 people. Yang Zilu could barely see the situation of the other city walls.
Overall, there has not been much change in Jiukui City, especially the city walls in the northwest and western sections, which are simply as stable as Mount Tai, because the former is surrounded by Jiukui Creek, and due to the restrictions of the terrain, the enemy cannot put many troops. The latter is backed by Jiukui Mountain, and because of this, there is only a clearing area no more than 60 meters wide, and the rest are mountains with complex terrain. If there is a trebuchet, this is a good place to attack Jiukui City from a high position.
It's a pity that Yang Zilu bullied them backward, there were no trebuchets, and they only had bows and arrows for long-range weapons, and they stood tall, even if they were projectiles, they didn't have sixty meters. can only obediently run to a distance of twenty or thirty meters under the city wall and shoot at the Nine Kui Division. Coupled with a 60-meter-wide area, how many troops can be placed?
The corners of Yang Zilu's mouth curled, revealing an excited smile.
…………
"Damn!" Chanli Meng also found a problem, don't look at the fierce battle between the offensive and defensive sides now, but in fact, Jiukui City is like a reef, under the impact of the monstrous waves, it is still as stable as Mount Tai, but the waves are slowly weakening after the impact again and again.
"Chan Li Meng, if you continue like this, you will just let the warriors of the tribe sacrifice in vain!" An elder was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice. Although he was only one person, he came on behalf of the five elders and wizards, and even if he was very dissatisfied with his opinion, he had to pay attention to it.
"Wait!" Limeng gritted his teeth and said with difficulty.
"Chanli Meng, you need to know that if you don't hesitate for a moment, you will sacrifice the life of my clan! I hope you can make up your mind soon! The surname of the warriors of the Sanli tribe is not used to waste it like this! It's too late to withdraw now! The Elder's face suddenly became gloomy, and there was a bit more threatening and tough tone in his voice.
Chan Limeng clenched his fists with both hands, gritted his teeth and said, "Now it's just a temporary defeat!" If we retreat now, won't we let those sacrificed people die in vain? Wait! ”
The elder was silent for a while, and snorted coldly, "Half an hour! ”
The dispute between the monk and the elder, although Yang Zilu was far away, he still saw the approximation, Yang Zilu frowned, he knew that the other party must be in a contradiction, whether to continue to attack. It is better to retreat before the heavy snow has not yet fallen, and before sealing the mountain.
"You can't let the Sanli tribe and the Haiyan tribe retreat! Be sure to leave them here! A sharp glint flashed in Yang Zilu's eyes, and he instructed Yang Tugou, who had just returned: "Immediately order the removal of twenty people from the city wall!" Let the women go up! ”
"Chief......" Yang Tugou hesitated for a while when he heard this, but still said stubbornly: "If you do this, will you kill and injure more people?" Chief, why do you want the blood of the Nine Kuibu to flow more? Maybe the dead are our relatives and friends? ”
