Chapter 26: The Siege of Xiongjia Town

When the people of Xiongjia Town discovered the anomaly, they immediately closed the gate and summoned young men to stand in front of the earthen wall and gate, armed with sticks and kitchen knives.

When they saw the huge crowd in the distance, the flying dust, they were very shocked.

Did the giant who came come come to ransack Xiongjia Town?

The elders of Xiongjia Town hurried over, looked at the thieves in the distance with a shocked and panicked expression, and immediately gathered the township soldiers and equipped them with crude spears, bows and arrows. Because Xiongjia Town has been harassed by rogues all the year round, these weapons are rough and of poor quality, and bows and arrows are only a stone, and the government sees that these weapons are not a big threat, so they agree to keep them, but they must be equipped when the thieves come to commit crimes, and they are not allowed to take them out in normal times, and they have to report the situation to the government afterwards.

Now while the thieves have not completed the siege, they immediately put down the two of them and rode to the government to report the news. It's not that they don't want to send more people, but the other horses have been requisitioned by the government not long ago. The only two horses left were privately hidden by the head of the government officials who spent money to buy them off.

It's a pity that Yang Qi had already been prepared, and not long after the two of them ran on horseback, they were besieged and hacked to death by the righteous army that had already been ambushed. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other man rode his horse and galloped.

A feathered arrow whistled by, and the man fell from his horse and died.

Yang Qi held a three-stone hard bow and looked at the familiar Xiongjia Town with emotion, but he didn't expect that this time he came here in the way of an enemy.

The earthen walls were only half a man's height, mainly to defend against the cavalry charges of the thieves, and the so-called gate was only a wooden railing, a rudimentary defensive facility. He felt that it was full of holes, but in the eyes of the townspeople who didn't know much, it was an insurmountable defense.

The rebel soldiers of the 300 elite battalion stood in unison not far from the earthen wall, although they were dressed in disorder, but everyone was armed with weapons and spears and bamboo guns.

The solemn murderous aura of the forest still rose, and the townspeople and township soldiers who were watching in Xiongjia Town had seen such a disciplined and murderous thief, and some of them had cold sweat dripping on their foreheads, trembling and clenching their simple spears, bows and arrows.

"Who are these people? Does anyone know each other? ”

At that moment, someone inside the earthen wall exclaimed.

"Brother Wang, why are you in the thief?"

"Isn't this cousin? Didn't know us anymore."

........

Many of the recognized rebel soldiers looked at their neighbors with complicated expressions, and many of them were relatives who came and went, which was really a challenge and psychological obstacle for the rebels.

The townspeople of Xiongjia couldn't figure out what was going on. The townspeople of Shangyun Town actually came to attack them, they thought of many reasons, but no one thought that they were rebelling.

The well-informed elder faintly sensed that something was wrong, how could such a marching formation and such a disciplined team be held hostage by the giants. The thief has such a ability, he has fought against the thief all his life, and he has never seen such a thief. This is completely the style of the army, are they going to ....

"Rebellion!"

The elder shook his head suddenly, and shouted impossible! The prestige of the empire is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that it is impossible to imagine that they would be emboldened to such an extent.

After Li Wu sent people to report that the siege had been completed, Yang Qi thought about how to reduce the casualties of the rebels, Xiongjia Town has been harassed by thieves for many years, there are more than a dozen hunters, the archery is good, and a round of salvo will also cause a lot of casualties to the rebels.

There was no choice but for him to make a move.

"Order, Wang Yi attacks Xiongjia Town!"

The military standard-bearer waved the flag to the front to convey the order, Wang Yi received the order, led a hundred light infantry armed with spears and bamboo guns, lined up according to the military formation of the training troops, maintained the line under Wang Yi's reprimand, and approached the earthen wall step by step.

The elder was shocked, he didn't expect these people to be so decisive, they didn't even talk about it, and attacked directly. Immediately ordered a dozen or so hunters to draw their bows and arrows, ready to fire a salvo.

Whoosh whoosh!

The sound of breaking the sky sounded, and five feathered arrows flew in a roar!

The three of them fell to the ground in an instant, blood gushing out, and the other two were nailed to the plank, and the remnants of the three-stone bow and arrow were still trembling.

In this way, almost half of the archers were lost at once.

The terrible cry frightened the rest of the hunters, and immediately a strong fear arose in their hearts, and they immediately leaned down, and did not dare to stand up again.

Five-bead arrows, really superb archery.

The elder's eyes widened, and he looked at a general a hundred meters away, surrounded by soldiers in sharp armor, riding a handsome and tall horse, holding a three-stone hard bow.

With such a general, Xiongjia Town may be more auspicious.

Lacking bows and arrows to shoot, the hundred-man infantry at the front boldly approached the earthen wall. The remaining 200 light infantry pressed the formation in the rear, and the space of the earthen wall was too small to be deployed, and it could not be sent blindly and wasting troops.

"Kill"

Suddenly, the sound of fighting was continuous, and the formation immediately became chaotic, with the rebels holding spears and the township soldiers of Xiongjia Town
