Chapter 369: Crisis

readx; Despite the inaccuracy of the blind fire in the black light, under the dense rain of arrows, countless Tuyuhun soldiers were still shot dead and wounded. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info For a while, the movement woven by wailing opened the most tragic prelude to this war. Seeing the Tuyuhun soldiers rushing forward without fear of death, getting closer and closer to the city wall, Zhang Gui stood on the eaves of the city wall, holding the handle of the knife with his left hand, and stretched out his index finger with his right hand, pointing at the black Tuyuhun soldiers, and shouted: "Shoot hard for me!" Shoot on target! ”

Zhang Gui's rough voice could not only be heard by the soldiers who were struggling to shoot arrows on the city wall, but even Wei Hong under the city wall could be faintly heard. Discerning from Zhang Gui's voice, the situation seemed to be not optimistic, Wei Hong hesitated in place for a moment, then reached out and grabbed a soldier who was about to rush to the city wall, and said in a calm tone: "You quickly go and send a message to Sun Changqing, and ask him to organize the servants in the palace to send me all the oil that can be found, whether it is vegetable oil, or pig, sheep, cow and horse oil, as long as you can find it!" Go fast, go for it! ”

The tall soldiers, in response, took great strides and ran towards the city. Looking at the back of the soldier in the distance, a sword that had been guarding Wei Hong's side came from the east, and said with a little doubt: "What do you want to do?" ”

Wei Hong put his hands behind his back and stared at the soldier's gradually blurred back, until the soldier disappeared, Wei Hong said in a deep voice: "Now, although both the enemy and the enemy have been damaged, the enemy is still five times our own. Once the ladder is on the wall, it will be difficult to stop the enemy from attacking the wall. ”

Hearing this, Yijian Donglai suddenly realized: "Do you want to heat the oil and pour it on the ladder to prevent the enemy from climbing the city wall with the ladder?" ”

Wei Hong turned around, looked at the city wall with bright fire and earth-shattering sounds, and said lightly: "Not bad." After heating the oil, not only can it force back the enemy troops who climb the ladder, but once it is spilled, it will also pose a great threat to the enemy troops under the city. Speaking of this, Wei Hong took a step and slowly walked towards the city ladder.

Not long after, as soon as Wei Hong climbed the city wall, an arrow pierced the night sky and shot at Wei Hong's front door. The arrow was getting closer and closer to Wei Hong, but Wei Hong turned a blind eye and continued to walk forward. Just when the arrow was about to hit Wei Hong, a cold light flashed in front of Wei Hong, only to hear a 'snap', the arrow broke into two and fell at Wei Hong's feet. At the same time, the sound of the sword returning to its sheath sounded behind Wei Hong. Glancing at the arrow that fell at his feet, the corners of Wei Hong's mouth raised slightly, he chuckled, walked in the direction of Zhang Gui with his hands behind his back, and said: "In the world and the world, people, animals, and things all want to take my surname." But God bless me, Wei Hong......"

A gust of night wind blew, blowing up Wei Hong's wide sleeves and placket, swaying endlessly. A sword behind him came from the east, looking at Wei Hong's dashing back, his brows furrowed slightly: "You're not afraid that I will miss it?" ”

Wei Hong didn't reply: "If you miss, then it's me Wei Hong, and my life should be like this." ”

The rain of arrows is boundless, the sound of death is everywhere, and on the left hand side is the gateway of the entire Tang Dynasty, the paradise of the common people; On the right-hand side is the Purgatory Battlefield, which is miserable. Wei Hong strolled between the two, like a leisurely stroll, without the slightest emotion. The surrounding soldiers, seeing that Wei Hong was so relaxed, frowned, and secretly said in their hearts: "At such an urgent time, he can still be so calm." It is expected that if this person is not really talented, he is a good disguiser. ”

Zhang Gui, who was nervously directing the battle, saw Wei Hong coming over, and hurriedly ran to Wei Hong's side, standing on the eaves of the city wall, and used his flesh and blood as a shield for Wei Hong. His face was nervous, and his voice was anxious: "Sir, why did you come up again?" Just now, only a small group of enemy troops stormed the city gate, and it was okay. Now that the enemy army has rushed up, the enemy's arrows are not long-sighted, and please quickly go down the city wall to hide. ”

Wei Hong waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, how is the situation now?" ”

Although Zhang Gui and Wei Hong had just met and did not know Wei Hong's surname and personality, from the tactics of Wei Hong commanding the division of troops to defend the city gate and detouring behind enemy lines, Zhang Gui concluded that Wei Hong was a really capable person. Since Wei Hong refused to go down, Zhang Gui no longer insisted on it, maybe Wei Hong was on the city wall, which would be more helpful for commanding the battle. Zhang Gui casually snatched a shield from a soldier's hand, put it on his back, turned his back to the enemy, and said very quickly in the face of Wei Hong: "The enemy army has built four ladders, and they are about to build the city wall." The enemy was outnumbered, and there were many more archers than we did, and although our troops were shooting from above, they had the upper hand, and even so, our army was at a disadvantage. If we forcibly shoot at the enemy, our strength will soon be exhausted. However, if you don't resist with all your might, you can't effectively restrict the enemy from climbing the ladder. In short, our current situation is extremely dangerous! ”

After listening to Zhang Gui's thrilling report, Wei Hong was still not moved in the slightest. After all, the enemy army is five times that of our army, and such a huge disparity is not reasonable if it is not dangerous. Since it is a reasonable thing to do, nervousness and worry become superfluous. Wei Hong stretched out his hand and pulled Zhang Gui's sleeve and pulled the reluctant Zhang Gui away from him. Then he took two steps forward and stood on the edge of the city wall to observe the battlefield for himself.

The arrows flew past Wei Hong's ears, frightening Zhang Gui's old face pale, for fear that Wei Hong would make something wrong. It may be that Wei Hong's clothes are white, which are extremely conspicuous under the light of the fire and the background of the night, and have become the target of the enemy. Gradually, more and more arrows were fired at Wei Hong. Just when Zhang Gui wanted to pull Wei Hong back, he saw the mysterious woman next to him, who had been silent, suddenly jumped to Wei Hong's side, the sword was unsheathed, and the long sword stood upright in front of him. Once an arrow approached Wei Hong, it was either blocked or cut off by the woman's sword. Whether it was Wei Hong, who turned a blind eye to the enemy's arrows, or a mysterious woman with superb martial arts, Zhang Gui was stunned.

Wei Hong didn't know how exaggerated Zhang Gui's expression changed behind him, and his eyes were only staring at the battlefield under the city wall. The full-scale war had not been going on for long, but the city walls were already filled with dense corpses. The dead lay quietly in place, letting the comrades-in-arms who used to call them brothers and sisters step heavily on their bodies. Those who are not dead cover their wounds and howl heartbreakingly. Those who were lightly wounded were pulled back to the rear by their comrades. The seriously injured were stabbed in the chest by their close comrades-in-arms with tears in their eyes, ending the suffering of flesh and skin.

After observing the situation of the entire battlefield, Wei Hong focused his eyes on the four ladders that had been transported to the bottom of the city wall. The largest number of enemy soldiers gathered next to the ladder, most of them shields. (To be continued.) )
