The infantry did not rest against the gates and walls, and they set up hooks and ladders on the walls, and resorted to the most common siege and the most casualties.

Ningyuan City had also made preparations for a long time, the oil and gold juice had been boiled, and the city's defense weapons such as rolling wood, thunder stones, and ten thousand enemies were also piled up on the city wall.

Seeing that Jiannu put the hook ladder on the city wall, the defenders of Ningyuan City hurriedly pushed the hook ladder, wanting to knock it down, so that Jiannu would not climb the city wall from the ladder. However, Jiannu's hook ladder is leaning against the city wall, which is very heavy, and there are hooks to hook the city wall, which cannot be pushed at all. Some soldiers were anxious and drew a single knife, trying to cut off the hook and ladder. However, the ladder of Jiannu was made of logs, and it was very thick, and it was cut continuously. The soldiers of Jiannu kept firing arrows under the city, and as soon as the soldiers leaned out of the city walls, they were immediately shot to death.

Man Gui yelled, "Don't worry about the hook ladder. The men of the first team poured gold juice on the Jiannu below; The men of the second team poured boiling oil on the cart below; The men of the third team threw 10,000 enemies at the Jiannu below; When the fourth team was halfway up to Jiannu, they put the log on the ladder; The people of the fifth team waited by the ladder and cut down Jiannu whenever he showed his head. A qiē is like yesterday's rehearsal. ”

It turned out that after Jiannu retreated yesterday afternoon, Man Gui thought that Jiannu would attack the city frantically the next day, so he divided the people on the city wall into five groups, each group had a different task, and also carried some city defense materials on the southern city wall he guarded overnight. The only thing he didn't expect was that Jiannu actually made so many cars overnight, which caught him a little off guard for a while. However, fortunately, when Yuan Chonghuan built Ningyuan City, he did not cut corners, and Jiannu dug for a day, which did not have much impact on the city wall. What's more, the Jiannu did not have gunpowder, and they had to dig a hole for people to enter and exit in order to pose some threat to the city.

Man Gui's order was carried out to the letter. The soldiers knew that Jiannu had the bad habit of slaughtering the city, and they knew that their fate might be miserable after the city was broken. Moreover, under Zhu Youcheng's policy of giving soldiers but not to the people, most of the residents in the city were relatives of soldiers and soldiers, not strangers, and they had no way to retreat, and only by thwarting the attack of Jiannu could they have any hope of survival.

The soldier carrying the gold juice did not rush to splash it, but first looked under the city wall. To see which corner had the most people, then he bent down and carried the gold juice around a few arrow stacks, and when he reached the corner where the Jiannu gathered, he turned the pot over, and a pot of hot gold juice was poured on the heads of more than 50 Jiannu under the city. The middle Jiannu was the most unlucky, and half of a pot of golden juice was poured on his body, and his head was cooked at that time. He didn't die immediately, he touched his head in pain, and it didn't matter. He touched his scalp entirely, revealing his white bones. The people next to him were more or less splashed with a little gold juice, and immediately fell to the ground and rolled and wailed. There was only a little bit of gold juice splattered on one of the slaves, but he screamed worse than the one who was burned to death, because the part he splashed was his eyes. If he is lucky, he will live to the end of the war, and he will also be a one-eyed dragon.

Gold juice is boiled dung water. The dung usually stinks and boils. It didn't smell good. When a child fights and throws poop, that's disgusting; But the gold juice used to defend the city is not entirely disgusting. Fecal juice contains a variety of bacteria that can enter the body along scald wounds and cause a variety of diseases.

The two soldiers who poured the gold juice did not immediately retract their bodies, but probed to check the tragic situation of Jiannu who was splashed with the gold juice below. It was this look that brought ruin to the two of them. Jiannu was aimlessly throwing feathered arrows at the city wall when he saw them leaning out. That's polite, shoot directly at them. A soldier was shot in the head and fell straight from the wall; Another soldier was shot with an arrow in the chest, fell to the ground, and struggled for a while. Also sacrificed.

The Jiannu soldiers who were hiding in the carts were especially happy because they seemed to be the safest. The 10,000-strong enemy of the soldiers, who were the most lethal, posed no threat to them.

The so-called 10,000-strong enemy is a powder packet similar to the spinning fireworks of later generations, and when ignited, it will spit flames in all directions while spinning. The Jiannu soldiers basically wore robbed cotton armor, and they were not afraid of bullets, but they were quite afraid of fire. Ten thousand enemies quickly set fire to their cotton armor and turned them into roast meat. But the chariot is not afraid of thousands of enemies, and its outside is covered with raw horse skin, which is not easy to burn. No matter how many enemies spew flames, it still stands still.

The people on the city wall poured down to the boiling oil, and the oil hit the cart like a rainstorm on the roof, although the momentum was loud, but it had no effect on the people in the cart. Of course, the wagons that had been punctured in the horse's skin were in a much worse condition, and the boiling oil spilled through the holes, scalding the Jiannu to the point of screaming.

Despite these episodes, the Jiannu who was destroying the city walls and gates were still very glad in their hearts, thanks to the wise Nuer Ha Chi, who had built such an advanced chariot, they were able to attack the city safely. But soon they couldn't laugh anymore, because Man Gui ordered someone to drop some small things—torches. Raw horse skins don't burn easily, but the raw horse skins poured with boiling oil burn and ignite the logs in the wagon. Most of the trees in Liaodong are pine and fir trees, which are relatively straight, easy to process, and extremely flammable. The bracket inside the cart is made of this kind of wood. Soon, a raging fire also ignited inside the cart, and the cart turned into a large fireball. The Jiannu soldiers could not avoid it, and burned it alive in the cart. The carts that didn't catch fire were no better, because they were the key targets of the Ming army, and huge stones were smashed at the carts. The chariot could withstand the attack of the firecracker, but it could not carry the heavy smashing of the stone, and it was soon smashed to pieces, and the Jiannu inside naturally followed the chariot to meet their shaman god.

The real threat to the defenders on the city wall was the hook ladder, and although the rolling logs were extremely lethal to the Jiannu who climbed up the ladder, the Jiannu would not stand there stupidly and be smashed. Some used shields to protect their bodies, and carried the rolling logs that rushed straight in; Some turn to the opposite side of the ladder to avoid the impact of the rolling logs; There are also weapons to block the rolling wood - well, this kind of person was directly stoned to death by the rolling log, so you don't need to look at it.

In this way, many Jiannu actually climbed the wall. The fifth team was already waiting by the ladder and began to fight them. Liu Xiaosan was assigned to the fifth team, and he didn't get any battle merits yesterday, and he was so frightened that he trembled when he saw the fierce god Jiannu rushing towards him. Especially a comrade-in-arms beside him was smashed with a shield by this Jiannu. Jiannu smiled ferociously and slashed at him with a knife. He raised his knife to block it, and he actually blocked it. The two were entangled. Liu Xiaosan was recruited by Sun Chengzong and trained for more than three years, so it can be said that his martial arts have passed, but he has not gone through actual combat. At the beginning, Liu Xiaosan was frightened by Jiannu, and forgot eighty percent of his tricks, and he was stumbling there, and was almost injured by Jiannu several times. But as time went by, his courage grew, and the tricks came back, and he fought with this Jiannu.

Liu Xiaosan jumped up suddenly, and slashed down Huashan with one move. Jiannu hurriedly raised his knife to greet him, but Liu Xiaosan's knife was so powerful that Jiannu was cut in half along with the knife. Seeing this, the other Jiannu was furious and slashed horizontally with a knife. Liu Xiaosan's moves were old, and he didn't have time to change his moves, closed his eyes, and said secretly: "My life is also resting." ”

The expected pain did not come, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the Jiannu's eyes were bulging angrily, and he was already dead. The arrow that came out of his chest explained the cause of his death. Liu Xiaosan was shocked, and secretly wondered who saved him.

The person who saved him was none other than Jiannu himself. Jiannu climbed the ladder and threw arrows at the city wall. It is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe with the thrown feathered arrows, especially those who climb the walls and fight with the defenders. As a result, the unlucky Jiannu became Liu Xiaosan's shield, assuming that the Jiannu did not come to chase and cut Liu Xiaosan, then there is a good chance that the person who was shot by the arrow was Liu Xiaosan himself.

And just like that, the battle continued until the afternoon. Jiannu attacked the city wall several times, and was repulsed several times; All their carts were destroyed; Of the twenty-seven hook ladders, thirteen were broken, and the remaining fourteen were also built on the city wall and could not be retrieved. Jiannu lost his wife this time, and he broke his soldiers again.

Nu'er Haqi looked at the soldiers who died under Ningyuan City, and his heart was like a knife, most of them were Jiannu people, but a few were clothed minions. Those people were the capital of his hegemony, and now they died in Ningyuan City in vain.

On this expedition to Ningyuan, he did not bring cannon fodder troops. Because he had already planted a traitor in Ningyuan City, he thought that as soon as he arrived in Ningyuan, the traitor would open the door and dedicate the city. Unexpectedly, Yuan Chonghuan actually solicited spies in the city, and the traitors were wiped out, and the surprise attack turned into a strong attack. Knowing that things would turn out like this, he was not afraid of delaying the time, bringing those cannon fodder troops and letting them storm Ningyuan City. With such a cannon fodder unit, he doesn't feel distressed about how many people die.

Looking at the gradually darkening sky and the still strong city, he waved his hand weakly and said, "Mingjin collects his troops and fights again tomorrow." (To be continued!)
