Chapter 530: Outwitting the Calendar

"Quick, wake everyone up and prepare to defend the city."

"You, you, and you, lead people to carry all the fierce fire oil to the city!"

"Ergouzi, this place will be handed over to you, you nail Lao Tzu here like a nail, and you must not let the enemy come up to the city, otherwise Lao Tzu will not be finished with you."

Tian Qiu's military order was quickly conveyed, and the city began to get busy in an instant.

Outside the city, the endless Han, Han, and Zhao armies were swarming, and at the forefront were a group of heavy armor with shields, and then a column of archers, and then clusters of rockets swept into the air, and then intertwined into an endless meteor shower in the air, and fell viciously towards the city head.

"Rocket attack, shield erection, shield quickly!"

"Damn it, bring the big plank over there, quick!"

"Get out of here, don't fucking occupy Lao Tzu's land, get out of Lao Tzu!"

The city was in chaos in an instant, and the armored soldiers with shields raised their shields in a disorderly manner, and those without shields hurriedly looked around for planks or large urns for cover, and the veterans rushed forward like a fierce look, and could not help but pick up the recruits hiding behind the battlements, and then kicked them to the ground.

The endless rain of rockets finally roared down from the sky.

Suddenly, there were endless wails and screams on the top of the city, and the soldiers of the Qi army, who had no time to hide or could not find cover, fell down one by one.

The rain of arrows comes and goes quickly.

In less than half an hour, the curtain had come down on thirty waves of rockets.

The Qi military captains, Simas, and military marquis at the head of the city came out from under the protection of the shields, and commanded the archers of the Qi army to line up at the head of the city in a chaotic manner. Prepare to return fire outside the city.

However, the archers of the Qi army at the head of the city had just finished assembling when boundless killing opportunities suddenly fell from the sky.

This time, the enemy archers outside the city did not use rockets, but used ordinary arrows, and because of the darkness of the night, the defenders at the head of the city could not see the traces of arrows flying through the air. At this moment, the defenders of Qi at the head of the city suffered heavy casualties in an instant, and only a wave of hidden arrows sneaked attack. The defenders fell in the hundreds!

##########

Outside the city, Zhou Yafu, Bai Yan and Han Ju were watching the battle not far away.

Listening to the screams coming from the top of the city, I imagined the tragic scene of countless casualties of the defenders of the Qi State under this wave of dark arrows. Bai Yan couldn't help but glance at Han Ju, both of them saw a trace of solemnity in each other's eyes, although Zhou Yafu was young, he was really cunning.

First, thirty waves of rocket rain in a row created a false impression for the defenders, thinking that the coalition would only attack with rockets, and when the defenders formed this preconceived idea, they suddenly ordered the coalition to use ordinary arrows in their bows and arrows. Almost impossible.

##########

After the rain of arrows attacked, groups of coalition light soldiers swarmed up with ladders and began to storm the city.

The defenders at the head of the city fought back, and rolling logs and stones rained down, knocking the allied soldiers who were going up the ladder to the ground. He poured a pot of boiling oil from the top of the city, and then threw down the torches, and in an instant the base of the city wall became a sea of fierce fire, and the soldiers of the coalition army who had not had time to flee were swallowed up by the sea of fire in an instant.

In the midst of the raging fire, the smell of burnt meat quickly filled the air.

However, the besieging coalition forces were not intimidated by the tragic scene in front of them. In the continuous sound of the trumpet, wave after wave of coalition light soldiers surged like a tide, the wave in front of it was exhausted, and the wave that followed immediately took over, without a moment's pause or slackness.

In the endless fighting, a coalition light army finally seized the city.

Looking at the coalition army erected at the head of the city, the coalition troops under the city suddenly cheered like a tsunami.

However, the cheers of the coalition army have not fallen, a group of dead soldiers of the Qi army have already rushed over violently, and the light soldiers of the coalition army who grabbed the head of the city have not even had time to gain a firm foothold, and they were squeezed down the city by the dead soldiers of the Qi army.

…,

Bai Yan hated and hated the festival, and said regretfully: "Damn, I didn't succeed." ”

"This is to be expected." Zhou Yafu put his hands behind his back and said lightly, "General Ben has said a long time ago that the ditch is deep and the walls are high, and the city defense is strong, and it is very difficult to attack it. ”

Although Bai Yan and Han Ju were not convinced, they had to admit that Zhou Yafu's judgment was right.

Time passed quietly in the tragic battle, and suddenly, Zhou Yafu asked Bai Yan: "General Bai, how many hours have it been?" ”

"Back to the general, the siege has been going on for two full hours!" As he spoke, Bai Yan's facial muscles were twitching violently, because this siege was based on the Zhao army as the main force, and it was attacked for two consecutive hours, and the Zhao army could be described as suffering heavy casualties, and the most conservative estimate was that the casualties were probably more than 5,000 people.

"Two hours?" Zhou Yafu bowed his head lightly and said, "It's almost, then let's start." ”

Bai Yan Huo Ran turned his head, glared at Han Ju and shouted: "General Han Ju, hurry, it's time for the Han army to make a move!" ”

Han Ju nodded heavily, then grabbed the iron tire bow and shot a rocket into the void, and the faintly burning rocket instantly drew a faint streamer in the air.

##########

A low and distant trumpet sounded outside the city, and in the continuous sound of the trumpet, the coalition army that had just stormed the city suddenly receded like a tidal tide.

The danger was lifted, and many Qi soldiers sat down on the head of the city in an instant.

In the next moment, the head of the city fell into a sea of joy, the coalition forces were repulsed, and the city was defended!

Tian Qi took a big breath with his sword, but there was no joy in his heart, he could feel that the coalition forces should not have done their best, so why did they retreat? As the chief general defending the city, Tian Yu must think more and do more, the coalition army still has the strength to retreat, what is the backhand?

When Tian was suspicious, the sharp-eyed Xiao Colonel suddenly pointed his finger at Dongfang and shouted: "Look, fire!" ”

Tian Qiu's heart shook slightly, and he looked in the direction of Xiao Xiaoxiao's finger, and sure enough, he saw a ghostly fire in the distant sky in the east, and in just a moment, the starry firelight turned into a large boundless firelight, and he could imagine with his toes that there was a huge army marching at night!

The cheers on the head of the city stopped abruptly, and all the defenders pointed to the east, secretly frightened, the coalition army attacking the north gate of the city had just retreated, and the east gate was about to usher in another wave of onslaught by the coalition army? The coalition army has sufficient troops to attack, but the defenders are not strong enough to say that they have to rush to the east gate.

The captains, Sima, and military marquis looked like dirt, and they all looked at Tian Qiu, although they were all tired like dogs, but in order to defend the city, they had no choice.

Tian Qiu seemed to understand a little, and his eyes suddenly became brighter than ever.

"Got it, I figured it out!" After thinking everything through, Tian Qiu pointed to the east and shouted excitedly, "Reinforcements, General Shentu's reinforcements have arrived, hahaha, that's our reinforcements from Daqi!" "As early as five days ago, Tian Qi had already received a flying pigeon from Linzi, saying that Shen Tujia had led 30,000 troops to come to the rescue, and it was almost time to arrive when the time was calculated.

"Huh? Reinforcements?! ”

"Our reinforcements?"

"General Shentu's army?!"

The captains, Simas, and military marquis looked at each other, obviously not quite convinced.

However, Tian Yao's inference was soon verified, and the firelight that appeared from the east suddenly turned in a different direction, turning diagonally to the north, and the coalition troops who had just retreated from the north gate began to line up in a chaotic array outside the city, and in the flickering firelight, they could even clearly "see" the panicked expressions of the coalition soldiers.

"Look, Da Xu, Qi Jun Da Xu!" Another soldier shouted.

The color of the Daxu varies from country to country, but the Qi country is a purple Daxu, which is easy to identify.

In an instant, the pot exploded on the city, and the reinforcements, really General Shentu's reinforcements arrived!

…,

The sound of the horn and the fierce sound of the golden drum resounded in the night sky, and in less than two quarters of an hour, the Qi army surging from the eastern sky stormed into the hurriedly lined up coalition formation, and the fierce battle began.

"Hahaha, it's time for a counterattack!" Tian Qiu raised his long sword and raised his head to the sky hoarsely, "Soldiers, go out of the city with this general, 100,000 heads are waiting for you to harvest, 100,000 war merits are waiting for you to receive, what the hell are you all waiting for?" Kill, kill with Lao Tzu......"

In the tidal cry of "kill, kill, kill, ......kill, kill", the defenders of Qi who were still tired and wanted to die just now were like being beaten with chicken blood, and instantly became excited, so they immediately followed Tian Qiu to flock down the city tower, and then the closed city gate slowly opened, and then the high hanging suspension bridge slowly fell, and then a group of defenders rushed out of the city gate.

##########

Not far from a small hill.

Bai Yan and Han Ju couldn't believe it, this, this, this?

Han Ju even rubbed his eyes vigorously, yes, the city gate has indeed been opened, and the defenders have indeed been out of the city, obviously, they plan to cooperate with the "reinforcements" to launch a fatal blow against the chaotic coalition forces, they are good at it, but unfortunately, what awaits them is a deadly trap.

Bai Yan and Han Ju glanced at each other, and when they looked at Zhou Yafu again, the eyes of the two of them had become a little solemn, if anyone underestimated him because of Zhou Yafu's age, he would definitely regret it in the end, although this guy is young, he is extremely old in soldiers, he is stable and ruthless, where does he look like an eighteen-year-old offspring?

Zhou Yafu didn't care about Bai Yan and Han Ju at all, but just turned around and instructed the Han army junior colonel who accompanied him: "Send a signal, the Taolin Battalion can attack." "The Taolin Battalion is Zhou Yafu's headquarters elite soldiers, named because they are stationed in Taolin, although the strength is not much, only 5,000 people, but it can be called well-trained and well-equipped.
