The earth shrouded in the night began to fade from the black veil, gradually revealing a white halo, and some things under the city could be seen from the city walls.
It stands to reason that a new day is a new beginning, and people's mood will always become happy with the rising sun, but for the defenders on the city wall at this time, they do not want the sky to light up, because when the sky is bright, it means that they will usher in a new round of attacks by the rogues, and this round they cannot stop in any way.
Zheng Kui, who was dressed in an official robe stained with dust and blood, looked blankly at the figure of the Liukou who had appeared outside the city wall, and a trace of despair rose in his heart, and he muttered to himself: "Is this official really going to be buried here today?" ”
Zheng Kui looked back at the three family heads Wang, Lin, and Li, who were also sluggish, and asked with great spirits: "The Liukou attack is imminent, how many people will go back to see if they can draw some young men from the mansion to defend the city?" ”
Wang Shoucheng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My lord, there is really no one, we have already transferred all the servants in the house to the city wall, and there are only some old and weak women and children left in the palace at this time. ”
"No!"
As soon as Wang Shoucheng's words were finished, Li Yuan on the side immediately interjected: "At this moment, the Liukou are attacking the city in a hurry, who knows if there are any of those people mixed with their internal responses and spies, if they are recruited to the head of the city, they will not die faster!" ”
Lin Yuanteng shouted anxiously: "But if we don't mobilize young people to defend the city wall, how long can we hold on?" I'm afraid it won't be a few hours before our heads will be hung on the city wall by those thieves! ”
Everyone made a noise as soon as you looked at me, and Zheng Kui was shocked when he heard it. Mobilize the people in the city to go up to the city wall, and you are afraid that there will be rogues inside, and if you don't transfer them, their troops are not enough, this is really a dilemma. After thinking about it for a long time, Zheng Kui helplessly reconciled with the mud: "Forget it, let's take a look!" Anyway, now we can at least hold it for a while! ”
As the time came, the sky had begun to brighten, and the rogues outside the city had gathered. Zhang Xianzhong pointed at the city wall with a horsewhip and said viciously: "Today, Lao Tzu is going to knock down this broken city even if he bites his teeth, we must not let Cao Cao see the joke of this dog's day, Sun Lao Er, Lao Tzu only asks you one word, can you knock down this city to Lao Tzu today?" ”
Sun Kewang lost nearly 2,000 people under the city wall of Yingzhou yesterday, and he had already held back the fire in his heart, at this moment he looked at the sun and moon flag on the city wall, and spat fiercely before replying: "Eight kings, you can rest assured, I only need half a day, I will definitely unscrew the head of the bird official on the city wall before noon,"
Zhang Xianzhong nodded, and solemnly ordered: "Second Sun, including you, we have lost nearly 4,000 people here yesterday, and the remaining people are less than 8,000, if you can't beat Yingzhou City today, someone will say strange things, so Lao Tzu will only give you half a day, if you can't capture Yingzhou City before noon, then don't blame Lao Tzu for being unkind to you, do you understand?" ”
Sun Kewang said loudly: "Eight kings, don't worry, if I can't capture Yingzhou City at noon, I don't need you to deal with me, I will wipe my neck under the city wall,"
Zhang Xianzhong nodded very gratifyingly, and encouraged: "Okay, Lao Tzu is waiting for your good news here, as long as you can capture Yingzhou City, I will allow you and your people not to seal the sword for three days!" ”
"Okay, the eight kings, just wait and see!" Sun Kewang was overjoyed, Zhang Xianzhong promised him not to seal the knife for three days after capturing Yingzhou City, which means that he Sun Kewang can plunder and kill people as much as he likes after capturing Yingzhou City, and there are no other people who are strong with them, and he can naturally take the big head as the main general, which makes him not excited.
Sun Kewang rushed to the south city wall on a yellow inferior horse, and looked at the thousands of hungry people in front of him who were either armed with swords, or armed with wooden sticks, hoes and other farm tools, he shouted loudly: "Brothers, the eight kings just said, as long as we can capture Yingzhou City before noon today, then we can do anything you do in Yingzhou City within three days, and the gold, silver, treasure, grain, and even women in it are all yours." But if we can't capture Yingzhou City before noon, we will all die! ”
When Sun Kewang shouted the word "death" from his big mouth, an awe-inspiring murderous aura poured out of her, frightening the eyes of the surrounding homeless people.
Sun Kewang finally waved his hand and shouted: "Okay, Lao Tzu has finished speaking, and now Lao Tzu only has one sentence, that is, those who advance are rewarded, and those who retreat are killed!" Come on! ”
"Rush!" Many hungry people showed a trace of fear in their eyes at first, and then they were replaced by a crazy hatred, they raised all kinds of weapons in their hands and rushed towards the city wall six or seven hundred meters away, and for a time all kinds of crazy sounds resounded under the city of Yingzhou.
"Here we go, here we go again!" Looking at the hungry people swarming in front of him, Zheng Kui's face instantly turned pale, and he couldn't help but shout, "Come on, quickly beat these thieves!" Otherwise, everyone will die! ”
Although Zheng Kui was a little out of shape, no one blamed him. After all, he is only a civil official, and now he can do this step is already very good, compared to many officials who defecate and collapse to the ground when they see the rogue. However, there is no need for Zheng Kuiduo to say anything, at this moment everyone on the city wall knows that if this group of rogues is allowed to rush up, all of them will die, so everyone, including the injured soldiers, clenched the weapons in their hands and stared at the rogues rushing outside the city, and some soldiers put the stones that were carried on the city wall overnight on the battlements, ready to smash the rogues who climbed the city wall at any time.
It should be mentioned here that although Yingzhou City is a state city, the orientation ability of the city is very weak, not only the number of defenders is small, but also there are no firearms and long-range weapons to defend the city, so although they saw the rogues attacking the city, the soldiers defending the city could only watch the hungry people rush over, and occasionally some archers shot out some arrows, but they were quickly drowned in the rolling torrent.
......Soon, with a series of rudimentary ladders on the city wall, the offensive and defensive battles with heavy casualties began again......
Just as more than 3,000 hungry people were flocking to the city wall, in a forest about a mile away from the city, Yue Yang, who was wrapped in Gothic armor, was holding a telescope and carefully watching the battle on the city wall. The telescope in Yue Yang's hand is naturally not an authentic military high-end product, but a civilian product that he bought from Taobao for a thousand oceans, but although it is a civilian product, he can actually see things clearly and hear clearly. From his distance, he could clearly see the figure on the city wall seven or eight hundred meters away.
Yue Yang had already rushed to the outside of Yingzhou City late last night, but he did not alarm the warring parties who were resting, but ordered all the soldiers to rest, after all, the soldiers had already traveled dozens of miles, and they were all tired. Moreover, there are only a few hundred of them, even if they enter the city overnight, it will not play a great role, but it will alarm the two sides that are fighting and arouse the vigilance of the rogues.
After looking at Yue Yang for a while, Yue Yang turned his head and saw Hu Laosan behind him staring at the telescope in his hand. Yue Yang couldn't help but smile faintly and handed him the binoculars in his hand.
By the time of the Ming Dynasty, monoculars had been passed to Western seafaring adventurers and merchants to the Ming Dynasty, and many Ming Dynasty generals were not unfamiliar with this kind of thing that could see distant targets.
After he took the binoculars, he watched carefully, and after a while, Hu Laosan said in an affirmative tone: "Childe, the people in the city won't last long, and the villain estimates that it would be good if they could hold out for another hour." ”
"That's how I see it, too." Yue Yang nodded, "The defense of this Yingzhou City is too poor, not to mention the firearms guarding the city, and there are not even a few bows and crossbows, they can hold out well until now." ”
Hu Laosan, who was also wrapped in a tin can, was already eager to try at this time, he rubbed his palms and asked, "Childe, then when will we kill it." ”
Yue Yang smiled faintly: "Don't wait, now you immediately order the troops to line up in formation, beat the drums, let's let the old men on the city wall see the majesty of our Yuejiazhuang regimental practice!" ”
"Yes!"
Hu Laosan, who received the order, almost jumped up excitedly, turned around and ran towards the back, and soon, a series of commands sounded in the woods, and a soldier in full armor slowly walked out of the jungle......
