944 Impregnable
The Wuxi army finally crossed the moat and came to the city wall of Yiling City, where a group of soldiers set up a ladder and climbed frantically towards the city wall, while another group of soldiers shouted loudly and pushed a giant tree to hit the city gate.
"Hmph, I can't help myself." Fan Jinqiang snorted coldly, pulled the two ropes, and activated two of the mechanisms.
With a strange noise, first, a huge bluestone above the city gate stepped back, and a tin bucket poked out, the lid of which opened automatically, and a bucket of grease poured down, falling right on the giant wood that hit the city gate.
The Wuxi soldiers were stunned by this sudden incident, and before they could figure out what was going on, several Yiling soldiers immediately shot rockets from above, and with a hula, the grease was ignited in an instant, and it burned together with the giant wood, and soon the smoke and dust were billowing and the flames were soaring into the sky.
The oil-stained Wuxi soldiers on both sides had no time to dodge, their bodies were on fire, and they let out a terrible howl, and some simply ran and jumped into the moat, and then were stabbed to death by sharp knives in the river.
The fire in the city gate blocked the attack of the Wuxi soldiers, and at the same time, the mechanism of the city wall was also activated, and at the half-cut city wall, rows of short knives suddenly stretched out, crossing and moving quickly, and the ladders that had just been erected were all cut off by the short knives, and the soldiers on the ladders fell down in horror, their bones were broken and their tendons were broken, and they screamed continuously.
The Wuxi army changed places again, thinking to themselves, can these rows of short knives still spread around the city wall? The answer is correct, when Wang Baoyu left Yiling, Huang Yueying was idle, and she pondered these organs all day long, not to mention one circle, but several circles, and there were no dead ends in the strong attack of the cloud ladder.
Therefore, when the Wuxi army changed to a seemingly safe place and set up the ladder with trepidation, just reached mid-air, only to feel that the feet were soft, Mom, here it is again! They fell down one after another, crying for their fathers and mothers, and wailing endlessly.
"Haha, it's enjoyable!" When Wang Baoyu saw this, he laughed, and his heart was open.
"There are still dozens of our organs, but I'm afraid that the Wuxi soldiers will not be able to climb the city wall for three days and three nights." Fan Jinqiang said confidently.
"Well, delay as long as possible and wait for the second brother's reinforcements to arrive!" Wang Baoyu is full of confidence.
"Hehe, judging from the current situation, the mechanism designed by Deputy Taishou Huang is unbeatable."
That's who's my sister!
Wang Baoyu looked proud, and her admiration for her sister Huang Yueying was like a surging river, such a powerful mechanism, in this era of cold weapons, the lethality is absolutely amazing. When I cross back by myself, I must think of taking all the big guys with me, with my sister in charge of logistics, and Cai Wenji giving advice, then I really have no worries!
Shamoke, who was watching the battle, was also shocked, he didn't expect the defense of Yiling City to be so strong, in just a moment, more than 5,000 people were killed and wounded, but the army on the opposite side of Yiling was not damaged at all.
Shamoko had no choice but to order the soldiers to retreat temporarily, the wooden ladder would definitely not be able to climb the wall, but he was also prepared, and after a short rest, a row of soldiers carrying the iron ladder attacked the wall again.
The short knives hidden in the middle of the city wall were useless, and the morale of the Wuxi soldiers was greatly boosted, and just as they were climbing the ladder again and trying to climb the city wall, Fan Jinqiang smiled contemptuously and activated the mechanism again.
Above the city wall, several iron chains suddenly fell, and the top of the iron chain hung a large iron ball, under the urging of the mechanism, the big iron ball shook like a pendulum, mercilessly smashed on the iron ladder, the ladder was smashed down again, Wuxi soldiers fell from a high place like a huge hailstone, and the howl of ghosts and wolves came again and again.
Shamoko was so frightened and annoyed that his whole body was so hot that he couldn't even wear his shoulders, so he took it off and threw it aside, so worried that he spun around in place with his bare arms and hands behind his back.
"What do you have to do?"
Shamoko asked as he paced, and the rest of the people stared at each other, and they couldn't say anything. Although Shamoke was angry, but seeing that it was getting late, there was no other progress except for the loss of troops, and finally he could only temporarily give up the idea of attacking the city, and the Wuxi army retreated to the camp again.
The soldiers of Yiling raised their arms and cheered, and the people in the city also ran to tell each other when they heard the news, it turned out that Yiling was not only rich, but also solid, like a paradise on earth!
Despite the victory in the first battle, Wang Baoyu still ordered strict precautions, and with his understanding of the barbarian army, most of these people had a tendon in their brains, and they would not give up so lightly.
The next morning, things changed, Shamoke saw that the strong attack could not be successful, learned from the Han people's practice, led people to the city to curse the war, tens of thousands of people shouted together, this sound also caused a lot of disturbance to the people in the city.
After scolding for two days, the generals began to be unable to hold on, and asked Wang Baoyu to fight, of course Wang Baoyu would not agree, but worries also rose in their hearts.
There is no way to go on like this, and the long-term closure of the city gate will inevitably affect the commercial activities of Yiling, so to speak, the loss of Yiling will be huge in the past few days of war.
Outside the city gate, everyone can't live with a headset, not to mention that since the construction of the Hanzhang Tower, the demand for materials in the city has increased suddenly, and it will definitely not work if you don't go out to purchase materials.
What to do? The men's proposition is to stick to Guan Yu's reinforcements, and the women's ideas are relatively simple.
This also includes Cai Wenji, who has always been calm, she found Wang Baoyu and once again put forward her own idea, she must adopt a proactive strategy and seize Shamoke in order to make the Wuxi army retreat.
"Shamoke is strong in martial arts, let alone catching this person, even killing him is not easy." Wang Baoyu waved his hand.
"Baoyu, a soldier, a trickster, unscrupulous means to win, there is nothing to do. Qi Ying can drive the Condor, I wonder if she can interfere with the white cow of Shamoke? Cai Wenji asked.
"Wen Ji, you're still smart!" Wang Baoyu's eyes lit up, and she kissed her happily. Why didn't you forget about this stubble, just thinking about how to fight!
Wang Baoyu immediately found Zhang Qiying to ask, Zhang Qiying didn't dare to guarantee it, but when she was fighting in the north, she did get a whistle that could emit beast language, but she could give it a try.
Since it is unscrupulous, Wang Baoyu thought of another thing, it was the Ecstasy that he used when he was in Xu Du, if he used this thing, it would definitely make Shamoke's combat effectiveness greatly lost.
After planning a qiē, Wang Baoyu pondered for a long time, found Ma Yunlu, and asked her to go out of the city tomorrow to fight against Shamoke, and strive to catch this guy back.
Ma Yunlu had itchy hands for a long time, and when he heard that he had his own task, he was overjoyed, and said excitedly: "Why do you have to arrest him, wouldn't it be easier to pick him down with one shot?" ”
