Feather arrows fell from the sky like hailstones, smashing up patches of blood mist on the city wall directly opposite Yuliang Avenue. Immediately white hair grew on the corpses like hedgehogs, and whether it was the defenders or the rebels, the feathered arrows had no eyes or minds to tell the difference. One of the ironclad foot soldiers, apparently not completely exhausted, poked his head out of the "hail" from hell with difficulty, and crawled inch by inch into the enemy building, dragging a long trail of blood behind him. Feathered arrows fell in waves, smashing on his armor until finally one of them pierced through the fine armor leaves!

"Li Mi is crazy!" Xuzi wiped the blood from his face and scolded in a low voice. He had several more injuries on his body, one on his right arm being particularly severe. Although the black armor presented by Tang Gong Li Yuan was of excellent quality, it was invulnerable. At this moment, the red muscles and the broken armor are there to turn outward together, like a baby's grown mouth. Zhou Daniu and Zhang Xiu took the medicine gourd and desperately sprinkled the medicine powder on the wound. The gold sore medicine was quickly washed away by the blood, and it did not produce any fruit.

"It's okay! Strangle here with strips of cloth!" Sui Junlang Zhongsun Jin tapped his finger above the wound and ordered indifferently. There were too many deaths he had seen that day, and this little injury in front of him could no longer surprise him.

"Lord General, Lord General's ......." Zhou Daniu pointed to Li Xu's blood-gourd-like head, and stopped talking.

"That's someone else's blood!" Sun Jin rolled his eyelids and turned to walk towards the other injured people. This cold action aroused the anger of many guards, and a few angry ones were about to rush forward and bring the unscrupulous doctor back and beat them up, but Li Xu stopped their reckless behavior with his left hand.

"Someone else's!" He explained in a low voice. The blood on his face belonged to someone else, and at least three more enemy warriors were cut off by him in the round just now, one of them was half a head taller than him, and after being slashed by a black knife, the blood erupted like a fountain, staining the sky and the earth red.

The sun in the sky had already turned westward, and for most of the day the rebels had found nothing but the occasional few climbs up the city wall and were desperately driven down by the brothers of the Xiongwu battalion. And Yuliang Avenue, which Li Mi tried to use to make a contribution, became a ghost gate, and countless rebels rushed up from here, but none of them could turn back.

"God, the son of a bitch still refuses to be dark!" Breathless, Yuwen stepped forward and complained loudly. At this moment, he was also as if he had just been washed from a pool of blood, and his whole body was wet. Another slight wound on the left forehead was drawn from the tip of the eyebrow to the earlobe, adding a bit of sharpness to the original elegant appearance. I have to say that this kid is becoming more and more manly, the feminine feeling on his body has been replaced by masculinity, and the whole person stands there, like a steel knife out of the sheath.

"I guess they'll fight after dark. The more they fought, the lower their morale became. After tonight, they'll have to keep an eye out for our reinforcements!" Li Xu thought about it from the other party's perspective and replied.

According to his calculations, Yu Wenshi and the two of them, after receiving the news that Liyang City had been captured, the other counterinsurgency armies would definitely rush to the banks of the Yellow River at night. With the marching speed of the government soldiers, as early as tomorrow night, or as late as the day after tomorrow, the sun sets, and there will definitely be a new army of their own side that can come. There is indeed not much time left for Li Mi and Han Shixu, so it is no wonder that the other party is desperate with him regardless of casualties.

Siege is attrition! I don't know which soldier summed up such a wise saying. It was just more than three hours of fighting, and at least more than 7,000 corpses were placed on and off the city. Xu Zi and Yu Wenshi have already dispatched reserve soldiers and horses to supplement the various critical parts of the city, and the team responsible for the siege under Han Shixu and Li Mi has also changed several times.

The defense method formulated by the generals of the Xiongmu battalion according to the method of defending Liaodong by the Goguryeo people was very effective, and a large number of enemy troops were consumed in futile attacks again and again. At this rate of attrition, even if Liyang is finally captured, the rebels besieging the city will become a remnant.

There have been several experiences of going and not returning, which has seriously damaged the morale of the attackers. Hearing the order to attack, they no longer forgot to die, as they did in the morning. Some people did not work hard, shouted loudly and stepped forward, and when they were stopped by the defenders, they fled quickly. Li Mi's Overseer team executed many of these "smart people", but after the next attack began, there were still a large number of soldiers who deceived the Overseer.

"Gollum╠╠"

"Woo╠╠╠╠╠woo!"

The sound of war drums under the city walls became more and more dull, and the sound of trumpets was like the chirping of cicadas in late autumn, each weaker than the other. Hearing the drum, the attacking teams did not immediately accelerate, but squirmed forward like ants, and some people kept turning back as they went.

In the past, when this happened, the rebel lord would immediately send people to urge the battle. But this time, the Overseer didn't rush up in time. Asahiko and Ubunshi, who were observing the enemy's movements, looked into the distance in surprise, and happened to see a strange landscape in the enemy's main formation.

Li Mi and Han Shixu are arguing! Xuzi and Yuwenshi, who were standing on the enemy tower, and couldn't hear what the enemy commander was discussing more than 200 steps away. But they could see that Han Shixuan was very angry, and kept waving his arms as he spoke. Li Mi dropped the feather fan, carried a long lance in his hand, and kept pointing at Yuliang Dao. A moment later, Han Shixuan kicked a giant shield beside him into the air and walked away in hatred. Li Mi thrust the lance in his hand into the dirt, then waved the command flag and ordered his soldiers to continue the attack.

"Han Shixu couldn't bear the soldiers under his command. But Li Mi didn't want today's battle to end there!" Yu Wenshi pointed to the dense corpses under the city wall, and analyzed in a low voice the reason for the dispute between the two core generals on the other side.

"Han Shixuan proposed a different intention at this time, it will not help!" Li Xu thought for a moment and replied from the perspective of the rebels. is also the commander of the First Army, he understands Han Shixu's feelings at this time. However, it is a very unreasonable behavior for the chief general and the military advisor to lose harmony in front of the officers and men of the whole army. Thinking of this, he secretly glanced at Yu Wen Shi Ji beside him, and coincidentally, Yu Wen Shi Ji's gaze also secretly looked over. The two of them met their eyes and quickly avoided them, and smiles immediately appeared on their faces.

"It seems that Li Mi, the military advisor, is better than the main general Han Shixu!" Zhang Xiu pointed to the enemy army under the city and loudly announced his new discovery.

"Han Shicao is a rebel general, and Li Mi is Yang Xuangan's henchman. In the rebels, it is natural that the power of the military division is greater than that of the commander!" The Scholar shrugged his shoulders and turned the conversation away with contempt on his face. "Yang Xuangan really knows how to use people, he shouldn't put these two guys all the way, Li Mi can only be used to win over heroes, with his resounding fame, he can really deceive a lot of people. It is used to lead the troops into battle......." He did not continue to comment, grabbed the lance and walked to the junction of the city wall and the enemy tower. This time it was his turn to lead the team to meet the enemy, no matter whether Li Mi was in vain or not, only those who could defend Liyang City were qualified to judge.

"Sent an order to Qin to join the army, and asked him to send one hundred and fifty of the strongest people to come up. Climb straight up the rope into the enemy tower!" Li Xu turned around and commanded Zhou Daniu. With the accumulated experience, he judged that the enemy's attack would not be too strong. I was just able to distract myself and replenish some manpower to the key parts of the city wall. He pointed with the tip of his knife at the southerly section of the city wall, as well as a few battlements near the corner, "There, Captain Li's side, as well as Captain Sun's responsible lot, have added a team, tell Qin to join the army, pick the one with strong bones and go first!"

"Yes!" Zhou Daniu clenched his fists and stood solemnly, then turned around and ran towards the long rope tied to the inside of the enemy building. He had climbed up and down from here three times throughout the day, and his hands and feet had crawled out of the senses, and after a few suffocations, the man fell to the ground. Then with the strength of his legs, he ran like a wild horse to the house of the Tibetan soldiers.

As soon as the brothers in the reserve who were waiting in the houses under the city saw Zhou Daniu, they immediately surrounded him. "How's it going?" "Have the enemy retreated?" "How are General Lee's injuries?" Everyone ignored the face of Qin Gang, who joined the army in Mingfa, and asked nonsense.

"General Li ordered!" Zhou Daniu held his knee with his left hand, pointed to the west wall of Liyang with his right hand, and gave the order breathlessly, "Go to the enemy tower with the three strongest teams, and climb up the rope ladder now." Three more teams of brothers were added to the city wall, Captain Li Anyuan, Captain Sun Xiang, and Zhang Jiang, who was in charge of that section, and each made up a team to go up. Yes, the strongest body!"

The reserve moved quickly, and after a few breaths, more than 300 good men walked out of the house. According to Li Xu's general order, climb the city wall that needs the most human support. When they arrived at the designated position one after another along the long rope and horse road, this round of killing was nearing the end. The rebels, whose morale had been greatly reduced, were driven down by the brothers defending the city before they could hold on to half a pillar of incense. Annoyed and angry, Li Mi naturally sent archers to retaliate. But the archers, who had been busy for nearly four hours, also lost their energy, and the density and strength of their feathered arrows were greatly reduced.

Li Mi Mingjin withdrew everyone except the shield bearers and archers who served as cover. On the city wall, the defenders, led by Li Anyuan and Yu Wenshi and two people, let out cheers with ulterior motives.

"Oh ╠╠ ╠ ╠ oh, retire, if you don't leave, you won't have a chance!"

"Let's go, brothers, only catch the mastermind, and never ask!"

The cheers from the top of the city rose higher and higher, much to the annoyance of the attackers. Moments later, several more low-ranking generals in the rebel army who had not fought well were dragged out of the ranks as scapegoats. Some generals were not convinced, and shouted around Li Mi. Han Shixu crossed his arms and watched the excitement from a distance, refusing to relieve the siege for the military division. Suddenly, Li Mi grabbed the long lance that was erected on the ground, and with a sweep, forced the generals around him to retreat a few steps. Then, with a flick of his wrist, the lance pointed at the nearest lieutenant.

Everyone, including the soldiers of the defending army who stood in the enemy tower and watched the excitement, was stunned, and no one expected that Li Mi, who was wearing a Confucian robe, would be so good at martial arts. Under the surprised gaze of Xu Zi and Yu Wenshi, the overseer dodged left and right, but he could not avoid the tip of Li Mi's lance. He finally couldn't bear the humiliation anymore and put his chest against the tip of the lance and stopped dodging. Li Mi seemed to ask something, and the overseer kept shaking his head. Li Mi asked again, but the man still shook his head. Suddenly, the rebel soldiers retreated, and Li Mi picked up the captain who dared to question him with a long lance, and threw him into the battlefield from afar.

"Hula!" Dozens of generals surrounded them. Immediately afterwards, dozens of generals rushed out from behind Li Mi. The two sides confronted each other, shouted, and fought with each other, and for a long time, they didn't realize that someone on the city wall was watching a joke.

The city walls resounded with intermittent laughter, and everyone had contempt for the rebels, whether they had participated in the Liaodong Campaign or had just been coerced into the army. After nearly a day of hard fighting, the relationship between the recruits and veterans quickly warmed, and they quickly identified themselves as members of each other's families under the pressure of the rebels. Now that he saw the rebels show their ugliness, his confidence soared.

Han Shixuan finally couldn't bear it anymore, walked over, and scolded loudly. Both sides of the clash retreated, and several scapegoats tied to the perimeter of the team survived. Li Mi and Han Shixu began to argue again, and after a while, Li Mi inserted the lance into the dirt again, walked to the Chinese army, and personally beat the war drums.

The sound of the war drums of "Gollum ╠╠" was agitated again. The mournful sound of the trumpet sang in harmony with it, like the mournful cry of a dying beast.

Han Shixu turned on his horse, and under the support of the guards, he rushed towards Liyang City. As he galloped, he let out a cry from his mouth, and his whole body armor was illuminated by the setting sun, like a god.

Tens of thousands of rebel soldiers followed Han Shixu's war horse, setting off a wave of people. The crest of the wave refers to Liyang.

The drums of war are endless. The other team broke off from behind the crowd and quickly pounced on Yuliang Avenue. At the forefront were a dozen or so remaining ironclad soldiers. Behind the ironclad soldiers were a dozen strong men, carrying several long wooden poles. Further back, there were about 300 guys with different weapons and armor, all tall and murderous. Then, there were thousands of warriors with no armor and green cloth heads, with neat steps and firm eyes.

"This is Li Mi's blood!" Yu Wenshi and his finger slowly covered the smoke and dust of Yuliang Road, and said in a low voice. In an instant, there was a hint of nervousness in his words.

"Let the archers prepare!" Li Xu responded with an order. He grabbed the bow at his feet again, and put the feather arrow on the arm of the bow. At the end of the enemy ranks, he saw two more acquaintances he least wanted to see, two enemy generals who commanded his men to attack the city.

One of them was very ordinary, looking like a charlatan, but he was not holding a tiger in his hand, but a thick-backed long-handled broadsword. (Note 1)

The other person looks like a merchant, and his face is full of mercenity.

Note 1: "Tiger support" is a sign held by medical practitioners in the old days, also known as "string bells". Legend has it that it was first created by the medicine king Sun Siliang, and it actually appeared earlier than the Sui and Tang dynasties.
