Chapter 52: It's time for the last game
Pang Zhong had already shot all three pots of arrows, and there were already dozens of rebel sergeants shot and killed by him, which could be said to be one of the people who shot the most rebels in the defenders of the city. He strikes with precision, not shooting aimlessly, but shooting again and again.
The heavy bow he used was very powerful, and generally those who were shot by him were seriously injured if they did not die!
Dozens of arrows were shot, and it took a lot of effort, but Pang Zhong didn't have any intention of stopping shooting, and immediately took a new pot of arrows from the hands of his guards and continued to shoot. A rebel commander dressed like a general fell into Pang Zhong's eyes, and Pang Zhong did not hesitate to take an arrow and aim with his bow.
This general or lieutenant general was holding a shield, brandishing his sword and directing his sergeants to rush, his head almost hidden under the shield, most of the rest of his body was covered by the bright light armor, and there were no arrows to hurt him.
Pang Zhong knows very well what kind of general can wear Mingguang armor, at least Zhonglang will be qualified to wear it as a general, look at the scene under the city, this Zhonglang general or general should be the commander of the front army that commanded the siege, if this person can be shot, it will definitely mess up the morale of this wave of siege rebels, and even let the siege rebels rout immediately It is possible.
But if you want to shoot and kill this rebel general, it is still very difficult, and the Mingguang armor with good protection performance is difficult to shoot through unless you shoot with a bed crossbow, even if it is a three-stone bow.
Pang Zhong used a two-stone bow, and if he shot directly and didn't hit the exposed parts, it would be difficult to hurt this person.
If you want to shoot this person, you have to wait for the opportunity, Pang Zhong pulled the bow halfway, waiting for the rebel general to show his flaws.
At this time, Pang Zhong's own soldiers, as well as other soldiers at the head of the city, were taking turns shooting arrows under the city, and the frequency and density of arrows were faster and denser than just now. The number of rebels besieging the city is increasing, and if they continue to maintain the frequency and density just now, there will definitely be many rebel sergeants who can rush under the city walls and set up ladders to climb the city, and there are also groups of rebels who can shoot at the head of the city.
However, at this time, Pang Zhong didn't care about this, and the shooting of the city was all commanded by the deputy general there, and he was bent on shooting the rebel general.
He was waiting for the rebel general under the city to show a "flaw" in his body!
Baimi always has a mistake, this is not true at all, and after Pang Zhong pulled the bow and waited for a while, the rebel general who commanded the sergeant to attack fiercely, maybe because the range of movement was too large, or because he didn't care, half of his head was exposed outside the shield.
Pang Zhong's reaction was quick, and he immediately seized what might be a fleeting opportunity, drew his bow and shot the arrow.
The swift arrow flew directly towards the head of the rebel general who was about a hundred and fifty paces away, and the rebel general did not expect that he was being targeted by Pang Zhong at the head of the city, nor did he know that an arrow was shooting at him quickly, and he was still there feverishly directing the sergeant to charge continuously, and his body swung violently, until the sharp arrow was about to approach, and he did not wake up under the desperate shouts of the guards around him.
But it was too late, and the speed of the arrow was faster than the movement of the body, and the arrow that broke through the air hit the rebel general in the neck. But he was lucky, the almost instinctive writhing of his body allowed him to escape the pursuit of death, and he was not shot in the most vital part, the arrow entered from the lower part of the neck, and peeked through the face.
With a scream of pain, the rebel general fell to the ground, and his guards moved quickly, immediately raising their shields and using their bodies to block the arrows from any further direction.
Pang Zhong also knew that he could not shoot the rebel with an arrow, so he couldn't help but wave his bow in frustration to show his dissatisfaction with himself.
The rebel was standing a little far from the city, and his body was constantly moving, and it was difficult to aim, otherwise he would have hit him in the neck. Even if it's not in the middle of the neck, if it's close, it can still kill this person with one arrow.
"This guy has a big life!" Pang Zhong was frustrated and sighed.
However, he also knew that after being shot by him with such an arrow, this person would have to lie down for at least a long time before he could recover his health, and it was unknown whether he would be able to fight again in the future. At the moment, he no longer cared about how he would be saved, but drew his bow and arrows again and continued to shoot at the city.
However, such a sharp arrow still had an effect, and the rebel siege was wounded by the main general, and there was no one to command it for the time being, and the momentum was slightly weaker. Pang Zhong also knew that the rebels' largest siege operation should be able to be stopped.
The rebels besieging the city weakened slightly because of the wounded general's injury, but after the wounded general was covered and carried down, another general was immediately in charge of commanding, that was the rebel's lieutenant just now, and the original lieutenant general was the commander of the commander.
The main general was wounded, and the lieutenant immediately took responsibility.
The lieutenant general stood within range of the bow and arrows at the head of the city, brandished his war horse and commanded his sergeants to attack in the direction of the city wall in a more violent manner. The follow-up rebel soldiers and horses also continued to rush, and they didn't seem to care that the Tang army at the head of the city killed and injured them with dense arrows.
The arrows of the Tang army at the head of the city shot more densely and more frequently, but the rebels under the city also attacked more.
Many of the rebel sergeants threw themselves down the city on the corpses of their comrades.
Whether it is under the east gate or the south gate, there are not a few rebel corpses piled up, but the rebel offensive shows no signs of abating.
Whether it is the East Gate or the South Gate, the soldiers of the Tang Army have almost exhausted their strength, and many of them have no strength to shoot arrows farther, even if the arrows that are barely shot fall on the rebels, the lethality is very small.
There are several ladders erected in the direction of the east and south gates of Hantong Pass, and there are also continuous arrows shooting towards the city!
As soon as the ladder was erected, a sergeant with a shield quickly climbed up.
But the ladder was quickly pushed away by the defenders at the head of the city, and in the screams of countless people, the ladder and the rebel sergeants on the ladder fell backwards together, suppressing a group of sergeants behind. But the ladders were still being erected, and the rebel sergeants continued to climb the city.
However, the ladders were quickly overturned, and hundreds of sergeants who had taken turns to rest also rejoined the team under Pang Zhong's orders.
The addition of hundreds of people made the arrows fired by the Tang army more dense, and the number of rebel sergeants who fell to the ground with arrows also increased again.
However, the rebel offensive continued unabated, and the near and far sides of the Hantong Pass were filled with fiercely charging rebel sergeants.
"Prepare hay, hot oil! Ignite the rocket!" Pang Zhong on the tower of the city gate ordered loudly.
Both Pang Zhong and Li Fu knew that the rebels were attacking the city so ruthlessly, and they were ready to attack the head of Hantong Pass in one fell swoop when their strength was about to run out, and now it was time for them to make their last move!
Countless bales of hay were thrown from the city, and buckets of hot oil were poured with them......
