Chapter 682: The Anger of the Loyal King
As T狸 was escorted up, there was a commotion among the soldiers below, but it was not much emotion, it seemed to be an angry voice, as if accusing T狸, why did he become a prisoner, shouldn't he give his life for the Great Khan?
Harry Sultan was not angry, but after seeing Ahri, he was very relieved, as if Ahri was alive was good news for him.
"Ask him what his status is in the army."
Zhang Yu said to the translator.
The translator asked all the questions, but the answer from Inside was very simple, although Hu Ye and they couldn't understand it, but they could guess it, it was definitely not a good word.
"General, this guy has a hard mouth and doesn't say anything." The translator exclaimed.
"Don't say it?" Zhang Yu sneered, and then sighed, "It would be good if Storm Zhao was here, he has a way to make this thing speak." But now that he's gone, I'm left with some stupid means. ”
I saw Zhang Yu pull out the knife and go straight to it, impartially, and slashed it over Aniri's shoulder, and then Ivri screamed because a piece of meat had been cut off from his shoulder.
"We have a saying called a thousand cuts, you have to cut a thousand cuts to die, you translate to him."
Zhang Yu said coldly.
Then the translator began to translate half-hung, and Inside heard it, there was a hint of shock on his face, but he still didn't speak.
This scene was seen by Harry Sultan, there was no anger on his face, some sneered, and then yelled at the city wall.
"What did he say?" Zhang Yu asked the translator.
"He said let's look down, and it would be better to call Anke Timur as well." The translator said.
"Huh? Loyal to the king? ”
Zhang Yu frowned, and then looked around, only to see a group of people suddenly appear in the army, not dressed as soldiers, but also children and women.
Seeing this, Zhang Yu seemed to have guessed something, and hurriedly called someone to call King Zhongshun.
Really. When King Zhongshun came to the wall, he almost fainted, because the group of people were all his wives and children.
It turned out that the king of Zhongshun was not a Hami person, but he led the army to defeat Hami, and was later recruited by Zhu Di to surrender, and he became the landlord of Hami, because the time was not long, so he did not have time to go back to his hometown to bring his wife and children to Hami, but he did not expect this Hari Sultan to find his hometown. and his wife and children were also arrested.
"General! Save my wife and children! Save my wife and children! ”
King Zhongshun almost knelt down for Zhang Yu, and he really had no choice.
"Don't be in a hurry, the king of loyalty......"
Zhang Yu also had a little unbearable at the moment, he finally knew why Hari Sultan wanted to go to Beshibali in the summer, it turned out that he was going to arrest the wife and children of the king of Zhongshun, so as to blackmail the king of Zhongshun. If their army had not reached Hami, there was a good chance that the king of Zhongshun would have opened the door and surrendered.
But if he came, the wives and children of the loyal king could not survive, because they would not be able to open the door and surrender.
"General. They said that if he didn't open the door and surrender, he would be killed. The translator said loudly.
Zhang Yu's face showed a deep entanglement, before he had doubted the loyalty of King Zhongshun, but now he had to worry about King Zhongshun's wife and children. Opening the gates of the city is absolutely not a no-no. But if he didn't save the wife and children of the loyal king, he couldn't bear it.
"Sue him! I'll exchange this man for that group of women and children! ”
In desperation, Zhang Yu had no choice but to take out the beaver.
Then the translator translated aloud. After a few moments, the interpreter said with a bad face, "General." They say they can only change one person. ”
After hearing this, everyone's faces were extremely ugly, they didn't expect that the people of the Timurid Empire would be so shameless, using women and children as bargaining chips, and in vain they had such sophisticated equipment.
"King Zhongshun, leave you a queen, after this time, I will ask the emperor to give you the richest reward."
Zhang Yu closed his eyes, this was also his most difficult choice at the beginning, and he had to be sorry for King Zhongshun.
So he exchanged Ishuri for one of the sons of the king of Zhongshun, and he did his best.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Back in the army, Ahri respectfully saluted Sultan Harry, but he was not in good health and could only nod his head.
"Alright, you did your best this time, go down and rest." Harry Sultan said casually.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
T狸 nodded, and walked into the army.
One of the sons of King Zhongshun also returned, but he did not have the treatment of Ahri, originally he wanted to throw himself into the arms of King Zhongshun and feel the long-lost father's love, but it was the cold knife of King Zhongshun who took him.
Poof!
King Zhongshun's big sword pierced directly through his son's chest, and the white knife went in and the red knife came out.
Zhang Yu and the others never thought that King Zhongshun would do such a thing, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
"General! It's Xiao Wang's, it's embarrassing for the general, and now Xiao Wang has no worries, and he will assist the general wholeheartedly! ”
King Zhongshun wiped the blood from his knife with tears in his eyes, then came to the city wall, looked at the group of wives and children below, showed a reluctant look on his face, and then shouted at the archers behind him, "Give me arrows!" Shoot the arrows! ”
Whoosh!
Hundreds of arrows flew down the city wall, and those soldiers were naturally guarded and had shields to protect their bodies, but those women and children had no protection at all, and they all fell under the arrows, and they couldn't believe it was their husbands and fathers who ordered them to be killed.
"Harry Sultan! I, Encore Timur, swear here! This life and this life will never die with you! ”
King Chungshun threw his sword down the tower and roared loudly.
Bite!
As the big knife was thrust into the ground, everyone came back to their senses and looked at King Zhongshun with admiration.
Hu Ye also had to admire this Encore Timur, but he didn't expect this guy to be so resolute in his heart.
Harry Sultan's face also showed a hint of shock, but after a moment he recovered, and now that he had no cards in his hand, there was only one way left, and that was to attack!
So with the order of Sultan Harry, tens of thousands of soldiers began to swarm towards Hami City, and powerful arrows began to shoot fiercely, cloud ladders began to be erected, and there were powerful siege towers, which were several zhang high, even higher than Hami City Tower!
"Shoot!"
Liu Sheng shouted, there is no need to talk about it now, and the Shenji Battalion is also full of firepower, although the power of a single is not as strong as the Eight Bull Crossbow, but the crosshairs are very high, and they all shoot at Harry Sultan.
Bang bang bang!
Although the Divine Machine Battalion is very accurate, Harry Sultan has long been prepared, and he already has a lot of meat shields in front of him.
"Damn it!"
Liu Sheng cursed, since he couldn't kill the commander, he could only kill some small shrimp.
There are too many of these soldiers, not to mention the Shenji Battalion, even if they are not careful, they can kill one person with one shot.
Coupled with the stones on the city wall and the arrows in the sky, the entire city of Hami immediately became a hell on earth, accompanied by countless screams, splashes of blood, and the darkening sky.
"Take off the hot air balloon for me and bomb them hard!"
Zhang Yu has already gone crazy, regardless of the attrition of the bombing, and now that the enemy has hit him like this, it is a good opportunity for the flight battalion to make meritorious contributions.
So one hot air balloon after another began to rise into the air, bags of gunpowder began to land, explosions began to sound, and sparks flew everywhere.
It's dark, but Hami has become a city that never sleeps, the huge fire will shine brightly around, the king of loyalty is not commanding, all his guards are also on the city wall, if it is not for Zhang Yu to stop, I am afraid that this goods has led his army to kill and fight with Hari Sultan.
The battle lasted for a whole day and night, and the city of Hami was already full of corpses, and the huge smoke had obscured the darkness, and the men and horses of Hari Sultan finally stopped.
"Your Highness, such a strong attack is not a way, we have already lost 20,000 people in one night."
A general said to Harry Sultan that such a strong attack would not be worth the loss.
"We're losing people, and they're losing too."
Harry Sultan sneered, and then said, "What's more, it won't be long before this well-defended Hami City will become their burial place!" ”
As Harry Sultan said, he is losing manpower, and Zhang Yu is also losing manpower, but Zhang Yu is defending, and the loss is relatively small, but there are four or five thousand.
In other words, in just over a day of contact, he has already lost nearly 30,000 people.
"General, the reinforcements from Jiayuguan should be about to arrive in Guazhou now, and in two days, they will be able to reach Hami."
Liu Sheng muttered.
"I don't know if the outside will be able to hold on until that time."
Zhang Yu frowned, this city can not be defended by a large number of people, once the people of Sultan Harry enter the city, with the combat effectiveness of the Timurid Empire's army, I am afraid that no matter how many people they have, they will not want to defend Hami City.
So the only way was to prevent Sultan Hari's men from breaking through the gates.
But judging by yesterday's attack by Hari-Sultan, how long they can hold is still a question.
And there is an even more difficult problem, that is, the two days of uncontrolled attacks, gunpowder and bullets have been almost exhausted, and if you want to get supplies, you have to wait for the army to come.
In other words, in these two days, the activities of the Shenji Battalion and the Flying Battalion will be greatly restricted.
And they are the key forces to defend the city, if these two forces cannot participate in the defense of the city, Zhang Yu does not know how Hami City can be defended.
"General, by surprise, they thought we would only defend the city, and if we went to attack at night, they would definitely have no defense." Qiu Fu suddenly built yì to.
"Night raid?"
Zhang Yu stroked his beard, thinking that it was a good idea, but he thought about it, Harry Sultan had no reason not to think that he would go to the night attack, and they could not be unprepared.
"Let the flying battalion bombard, use all the gunpowder, and then the cavalry will raid!"
Zhang Yu suddenly ordered. (To be continued......)
