The commander of the rebel archers was very experienced, and under his orders, the feathered arrows that hit the city were evenly paced and densely dropped. Every wave of feather arrows can cause great damage to the city. Especially in the vicinity of Yuliang Road, where the fighting was fierce, the rebels' feathered arrows could rise diagonally upwards and then turn in a perfect arc in mid-air, past their own brethren, over the walls, and neatly over the heads of the defenders.

The losses on both sides were devastating. From the official contact between the soldiers of the two sides to now, it is only a matter of breaths, and there are more than 100 corpses lying on Yuliang Road. And on the city wall facing Yuliang Road, the defenders also changed three waves. Yu Wenshi and the soldiers who were hiding in the enemy tower were constantly sent out, and they kept seeing the corpses of the brothers being carried into the enemy tower.

"Damn, I didn't have a chance to set a trap!" Yu Wenshi cursed and muttered, eager to drag the commander of the enemy archers out and tear them in half.

"This person must have been born in the Great Sui Mansion!" Asahiko frowned, judging the general who commanded the rebel archers. According to Yang Fuzi's notes, when Yang Su of Yue Gong practiced soldiers, the requirements for military generals and archery were completely different from those for soldiers. His requirements for generals are accurate, and those who can shoot the head of a hare emerging from the ground within fifty paces are preferred. However, the requirement for soldiers is to be able to shoot the most feathered arrows into the designated area of the military commander in the shortest time and at the fastest speed.

This request sounds puzzling, but when you see the scene in front of you, you will be amazed by Yang Su's military attainments. The situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and it was impossible for the generals to have time to specify targets for each archer. Therefore, he will judge the approximate distance between the enemy and himself, and then ask his soldiers to shoot all the feather arrows at that distance. Hundreds of feathered arrows are overwhelmingly smashed, and they don't need to be accurate at all, and the density can also make the enemy have nowhere to escape.

Another round of feathered arrows fell from mid-air, sending debris flying from the walls. At the moment when Bai Yu rose into the air, Asahiko saw that behind the shield wall made of tree branches, a corner flag swayed.

"There!" Xuzi bowed down and pulled up the second feather arrow. Aim at the shield wall in front of the corner flag and shoot. Then quickly bend down, pull up the third feathered arrow, and shoot it in the same trajectory as the second feathered arrow. The heavy arrow was windless, and the first arrow silently slammed into the shield wall, knocking out the branch shield in front of the enemy general. A second arrow followed, striking firmly into the chest of the shield-protected man.

Xuzi threw down the three-stone bow, and he didn't have the strength to open such a strong bow three times in a row. In fact, there is no need for him to a third time. The enemy general who commanded the archers to suppress the castle fell on his back, causing the banner to fly into the air, causing confusion among the archers.

"Pierce the oil drums and push them down from the city!" Yuwenshi and Xuzi cooperated very tacitly, taking advantage of the moment when the enemy's feather arrows were intermittent, he ordered loudly.

The spearmen stabbed forward at the same time, forcing the ironclad infantry who were approaching the city several feet away. The soldiers in the back row rushed up, and the two men lifted a wooden barrel filled with vegetable oil, stabbed them with daggers indiscriminately, and smashed the oil barrel into Yuliang Road in unison.

The "Gululu" oil drum rolled down the slope quickly. Knocked over several ironclad foot soldiers and spilled vegetable oil all over the road. A few rebels who rushed to the battlement mouth cursed, and when they were not paying attention, they tripped over the dirt bags sprinkled with vegetable oil, and slipped down the edge of the fish beam road to the ground like a gourd.

"Throw it again, get more holes!" Yu Wenshi and unrelenting.

"A second batch of barrels filled with vegetable oil was thrown off the city, knocking the ironclad foot soldiers on Yuliang Road to the ground. Enraged, the ironclad slashed with their knives, slicing huge holes in the barrels. Clear vegetable oil flows out, and the water moistens the sediment that paved the Yuliang Road. The smell of oil comes to the nose and makes people drool.

The smell of blood was diluted, and the air was filled with the smell of vegetable oil. "Get out of the way!" In the stunned eyes of the enemy, Li Anyuan rushed out of the enemy building with a rocket with a horned bow. As soon as he let go, he shot the rocket at the feet of the ironclad foot soldier on the Fish Beam Road. Immediately afterwards, more than twenty veterans rushed out with rockets and shot Yuliang Avenue into a fire dragon.

The ironclad infantry who were rushing forward had never encountered such a shameless tactic, and fled backwards in a hurry. "Add fuel to the fire!" Yu Wenshi and shouted frantically. More oil drums were punctured, rolling down the Fishbeam Road, following in the footsteps of the ironclad soldiers, directing the flames to them.

The battle stopped instantly. The rebels who rushed forward with the ladder stopped in astonishment, and watched as their elite ironclad foot soldiers, equipped with more than 10,000 yuan, rolled and struggled in the sea of fire. The archers, who had just recovered from the death of their commander, opened their mouths wide and could not tell whether the ensuing disaster was a demon or a fact.

The defenders at the head of the city were also stunned, they did not expect the fire to be so lethal. Of the more than 300 ironclad infantry soldiers near the city wall, only a dozen or so at the end of the line escaped safely, and the rest were all swept into the flames. Someone stumbled to the edge of the Fish Beam Road and rolled down. The armor stained with vegetable oil carried the flames into the puddle below Fishbeam Road, where it caused another flame.

There were also more than three hundred lucky ironclad infantry, as the second echelon, who did not participate in the storm. Having lost their main commander and witnessing the tragic death of their comrades, they lost their courage and reason, and stood at the end of the Yuliang Road like a clay wood carving one by one, leaning on a shield and holding a knife. No matter how quickly the drums beat behind him, no one would move half a step forward.

"Keep on the offensive, keep on the offensive, put out the fire with sand!" A golden-armored general on a war horse rushed to the city with dozens of guards and woke up the stunned rebel soldiers with a leather whip. Like a rebel soldier who had just woken up from a nightmare, let out a scream and rushed towards the city wall.

Foot soldiers carrying dirt ran forward from the enemy's main position, trying to extinguish the fire on Yuliang Road with sand. But the fire was so great that their actions did not yield significant results for a while. The Golden Armor General ran angrily under the city walls, directly giving orders to various low-level generals. At his urging, the ladder began to move forward again, the flow of people began to squirm forward again, and the archers behind the shield wall began to shoot white feathers at the head of the city again. It's just that the rhythm of all the movements has slowed down, and the shouts of killing are no longer as powerful as before.

Xuzi grabbed the ordinary infantry bow and put the armor-piercing arrow on the bow arm again. The long arrow flew towards the Golden Armor General, but it was empty because of the running of the war horse. The whistling sound of the feather arrows startled the man, and he quickly looked at the enemy tower, and he hit his horse and ran out of the range of the feathered arrows.

"This person is Han Shixu, if you could just shoot him, we would have won half of this battle today!" Yu Wenshi stepped forward, pointed at the golden armor general, and shouted loudly.

Li Xu replied with a wry smile. Three strong bows were fired in a very short period of time, and his arms were still weak. Otherwise, the last arrow will not go astray.

The first ladders reached the top of the city, and the rebels braved the rolling logs and rocks to climb up quickly. Several brave defenders poked out of the battlements and tried to pull over the ladder with hooks, but were shot dead by the rebel archers.

"Can you send someone to destroy the shield wall with rockets!" Li Xu pointed to the wall of branches and shields of the enemy troops under the city to protect the archers, and shouted at Yu Wenshi.

"What do you say, rocket, let me think!" Yu Wenshi and covered his ears with his hands and responded. After a while, he began to order people to collect strips of cloth, the general's cloak, the soldiers' sleeves, trouser legs, and all the arrowroot cloths that could be torn off for emergencies. Then he took a bucket of vegetable oil, moistened the strips of cloth, and ordered the strips of oilcloth to be wrapped around the feathered arrows, and distributed them to the archers one by one.

Rockets began to be fired at various battlements, nailing them to the enemy's shield walls below the city, causing puffs of light smoke. The shields made of tree branches were not fireproof, and the enemy shield-bearers were so frightened that they poked out their weapons from behind the shields and beat them desperately. The light smoke gradually thickened, and as the number of rockets fired into the shield increased, the flames finally rose.

The shirtless shieldbearers dropped their "torches" one after another and froze in place. Their naked upper bodies immediately caught the attention of the defenders at the head of the city, and countless feathered arrows flew in and whistled around their chests. "My mother!" The bare-chested men screamed, turned and fled, and swept the ranks of archers into pieces.

"Go around, go around until you are two hundred steps away, and this formation will send a shield soon!" Han Shicao's nose was crooked by the performance of the soldiers, and under the protection of several guards, he rode his horse to intercept the escapees. Li Xu raised his bow and aimed at Han Shixu's neck, and before the feather arrow could be released, a guard had already blocked his vision. He pointed the tip of the arrow down and aimed it at Han Shixu's chest, and the target quickly turned into the guard's shield again. Adjusting the bow arm slightly, Asahiko released the bowstring, and the armor-piercing arrow swept across the battlefield like a meteor, piercing straight into the neck of the warhorse.

Han Shixu's figure disappeared from the battlefield at once, and dozens of guards surrounded him at the same time. "Han Shicao was hit by an arrow, Han Shicao was hit by an arrow!" Zhang Xiu shouted loudly in the enemy tower. Immediately afterwards, Zhou Daniu and Li Xu's guards shouted in unison. Got the news to the ears of everyone on the battlefield.

The rebels' attack was sluggish again, and almost everyone looked at the position where Han Shicao had fallen. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the defenders at the head of the city raised their hooks and pulled the newly erected ladder to the side as hard as they could, and the ladder reluctantly creaked in protest before crashing down.

"Set fire, set fire!" The Scholar and the loud order.

Vegetable oil had been poured on the various sections of the city wall in advance. The defenders threw the fire-burning objects from the top of the city, and set fire to the corpses below, the ladders, and the wounded soldiers who had not had time to escape, and the screams were heard in the billowing smoke.

"General Han is not dead, General Han is not dead. Don't be fooled, everyone! Han Shicao's guards shouted in unison, trying to stabilize the morale of the army. The enemy is too despicable, and from the time the two sides began to fight each other, they have not been able to see anyone in a single move. But these unsightly tricks are very effective, and General Han, who took the two dangerous cities of Tiger Prison and Xingyang between his backhands, was helpless against Liyang City, which had no danger to rely on.

"General Ben is still here!" Han Shixu walked out of the encirclement of the guards, raised his sword and shouted. As soon as the words fell, a feathered arrow "Whoosh!" The ground flew over, and a cloud of dust splashed under his feet. The guards hurriedly stepped forward, surrounded the shield Han Shixu, hugged him, and slowly retreated.

Li Xu put down his bow regretfully. That arrow was not shot by him, and someone preemptively startled Han Shixu. He turned his head and just saw Zhou Daniu holding a step bow and putting another armor-piercing arrow on the bow arm. "Don't waste it, shoot a nearby target with a normal arrow!" Li Xu hurriedly reminded. "Oh!" Zhou Daniu, who was silent in excitement, turned around when he heard this, put down the armor-piercing arrow apologetically, and hid at the junction of the enemy tower and the city wall.

"Bell, bell, bell!" A crisp gong sounded from the enemy's main formation, and Li Mi withdrew all his soldiers. The morale was depressed, the fire under the walls was too great, and there was no point in continuing the first wave of attacks. He's not a brave guy and knows how to pace his attacks.

"Let the reserves come up and replace the soldiers who defended the city this morning and go down to dinner!" Li Xu put down his bow and reached out to wipe the oil and sweat from his forehead.

Sobbs rang out one after another in various parts of the western city wall. Many of the soldiers who were forcibly incorporated into the Xiongwu camp were fellow villagers, playing with each other from childhood to adulthood, and the last time everyone was lucky enough to escape death together, the good days did not pass for a few days, but they were pulled back to death.

"Carry the deceased down and put him in the empty courtyard. After the enemy army retreats, it will be buried alive! Yu Wenshi sighed and commanded in a low voice.

This order made many soldiers cry even more sadly, almost turning into a howl. "What, what, how can there be immortals in war!" The junior officer shouted loudly and suppressed his cry. Everyone sobbed and stood up, carried their fellow villagers and companions, passed through the small gate between the sections of the city, and walked down the road to the bottom of the city. The brothers in charge of the meal brought steaming white rice and stewed horse meat, and the soldiers picked up their bowls and used chopsticks to pick up the delicious food that they had never eaten several times in their lives, but they could not put the food in their mouths.

"Eat, this battle, let's fight!" A "veteran" of the Xiongwu battalion who had just become the captain patted the new pawn in front of him and comforted him.

"Still fighting?" The pawn's eyes widened in tears and he protested silently. "Won't it work?" He lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, "No injustice, no revenge!" ”

"You think I want to fight! If they hadn't rebelled, Lao Tzu wouldn't have known how many military exploits he had made in Liaodong! The veteran put down his job and hated and scolded.

The pawn lowered his head and stopped talking. He didn't understand what the guy was saying. He knew that when the crops in the field were growing gratifyingly, Lord Yang said that the adults had rebelled and asked everyone to become soldiers to eliminate traitors for the country. Then the traitor became the current emperor again, and the crime was written on a large piece of paper, which rhymed very much, but unfortunately he couldn't understand a word. Then his identity became a righteous man, led by Lord Yuan to stick to Liyang. Then Lord Yuan became a thief again, and was caught by the official army in front of him and cut off his head. Then, his identity changed from a thief to an official soldier, and the enemy he faced changed from a righteous man to a thief. Changed back and forth, and the whole person became confused. It's just that the promises of the chief are getting better and better, and there are more and more dead people around him.

"In short, if you hold on for another day and a half and get rice alive, it will be a victory!" The veteran shaved the rice and meat in the bowl, put down his chopsticks, and confessed the truth.

"Get rice alive!" The recruit wiped away his tears and swallowed the piece of meat into his stomach. The promise of Lingmi, Lord Yuan also said, but when he died, the promise could not be made. At present, the day when this group of people fulfilled their promises is near, and they have to live no matter what, and live until the moment when their promises are fulfilled.

"Xuzi, believe it or not, after this battle, our Xiongwu Battalion will become an elite that can dominate the world!" Yu Wenshi put down his chopsticks, pointed to the veterans and new soldiers who were walking back to the city wall one after another, and whispered.

"Ah, Elite!" Li Xu, who was burying his head in eating, almost choked and asked hesitantly. The elite in his heart is the tiger and iron horse in the mouth of the infantry captain. People have been galloping for many years, how can the recruits under their command who have only been on the battlefield for a few days be compared? However, being reminded by Yu Wenshi and Yi, Xu Zi really felt that these soldiers in front of him had changed. It turned out that most of them looked dazed and lifeless. At the moment, there is still not much vitality in these people, but they have a strong murderous aura.

"This will be the foundation for the two of us to gain a foothold in the DPRK and China!" Yu Wenshi looked at the group of loyal soldiers and thought silently. Without the support of the family, it is not bad to have a family foundation that is completely under your control. With this strong team, there is no worry about not being able to make contributions.

Fame but take it right away.
