Because of Liu Yingda's death, the south city gate was vacant as the lieutenant of Meixi County, although a military marquis was promoted to lead the Meixi Division, but not to mention Zhu Biao, Li Yirong, Li Maozhong, Xie Qiang and even Meixi County Ling Su Qun, all felt uneasy.
Zhu Biao asked Chen Mengren to take a hand, and Meng Rui, who ranked first in the right part of the martial arts, was of course handpicked by Chen Mengren to climb the south city wall.
The sun had already risen, and Meng Rui's face was still quite embarrassed. This is not because of the stench that 'wafts' over the city. In a boiling cauldron, what is boiling is the human and animal dung juice such as yellow and black.
This thing is a great weapon in the city defense, poisonous and disgusting. After boiling hot, it is called 'golden juice', poured on people, and most of the hot human skin and flesh will be filthy into the bones, and the wound will rot and rot and rot and cannot be removed. The wounded lay on the bed wailing and crying and had to endure for several days before slowly dying, struggling in pain and waiting for death, it was far better to be directly stabbed and happy.
At the head of the city, where the 'fragrance is wafting', many people are frowning and covering their mouths and noses. But Meng Rui's unhappy expression was obviously different from these people, others were 'frowning' on the surface, and he was gloomy in his bones.
The 'aroma' under the nostrils, who really cares about the people in the city? Compared with life, compared with the city, this discomfort is not worth mentioning. 'Frowning and covering your nose' is more of a joke with each other, funny, and relaxes your nerves.
But what about Meng Rui, thinking of the two red-robed and seven-yellow-robed corpses brought out of the county guard's mansion, his heart was completely suppressed by the mountains, it was really unthinkable, Zhu Biao's strength had reached this point where it was difficult for him to match.
He had fought with the yellow-robed mage, and although it was only a few faces, if it weren't for his luck, he wouldn't be standing at the head of the city but lying in the hospital room now.
The red-robed mage is even higher than the yellow-robed mage, Zhu Biao can kill so many people alone, looking at those corpses, they are all swords in the throat, what kind of realm should this be?
The scene of seeing Zhu Biao for the first time is still vivid, although Meng Rui felt that Zhu Biao's strength was better than her own when she met her for the first time, but the gap was never expected to be so huge and exaggerated.
"It seems that the horse spear has suppressed his force!" The gap between the two sides in the meritorious position is incomparable, and the difference in personal force is also the same, Meng Rui's strong and stubborn will is about to be touched and shattered.
When he vowed to catch up with the goal, he found that the goal was so unattainable, so tall and incomparable, and he was weak and small in all aspects, for a person with full self-confidence, competitiveness and ambition, there was really no such a huge blow.
It's no wonder that Meng Rui can show a smile now!
Once people get into the horns or stubbornness, normal reason has already left them. Blindness, blindness, and obstinacy, these are the words that fit with them.
However, Meng Rui still has some city government, after all, he grew up in that environment, and he worked face, or said that the skill of 'seeing people and talking about people, seeing ghosts and talking nonsense' is still very mature, and after the initial arrogance in front of Zhu Biao, he has to be obedient, and there is no prickly head and suspicious appearance at all
"Kill—"
After the bridge was built, the ladders went up one after another. A large number of soldiers and wolves howled—
"Whoosh-"
In this regard, the Han army's counterattack was to talk with sharp arrows and blood.
Arrows can't stop the ladder cart from advancing, but dung juice is what even the bravest warriors fear and chill. Plus the fire oil, the hot fire oil!
Under the siege of the entire Huaiyuan County, a large number of horses and sheep were captured by Zhu Biao.
What's the use of these things other than killing them to eat? With the situation of the Han army, even if you want to keep it, you don't have the ability. So from the beginning to the present, every soldier, soldier and civilian have eaten with a mouth full of oil, and even the forbidden army in the royal capital with good food cannot be compared.
A large amount of mutton fat was then stored up, and the torches were lit at night, and now the fire oil was poured on it.
The small rocket couldn't burn the big ladder car for a while, but after pouring mutton fat, it was all wrapped in raw cowhide and burned.
After the first wave of Hu Cai's attack retreated, under the four walls of Huaiyuan, the unextinguished fire was swaying in the wind, and the hot dung juice poured from above emitted a thick stench on the ground.
In the eastern part of the city, about 100 corpses fell to the ground, and the corpses were terrible, dripping with blood, and the ladder was poured with hot oil and burning......
Breaking the urn city first, and then breaking the city wall, this is a problem that Hu Qi must encounter every time he attacks the city. Therefore, three of the five wide openings they erected in front of the moat at the east gate were facing the urn city diagonally to the left and right. The same is true of the rest of the west, north, and south gates.
In addition to the defenders of the battlements of the city wall, the Han army also used a qiē method to snipe the momentum of the Hu soldiers' siege of the city. The archers and crossbowmen who hid in the tower only aimed and shot, and unless they were real marksmen who pierced through the Yang at a hundred paces, they couldn't help them at all. Moreover, the Hu people did not have heavy siege equipment such as catapults and siege towers, and they were completely unable to destroy the horse faces and the towers on them, and they were too far behind in this regard, and they were too blindly confident in the means of their own people.
However, the first wave of attacks was mostly tentative feints by the Hu people, who wanted to test the Han army's city defense methods. After all, they had ten times the number of troops in the city, and a large number of Heavenly God Sect masters as helpers, which were incomparable advantages.
"Kill, ......" another offensive begins.
In the morning, the four city walls were like four relatively poisonous battlefields, there was no so-called unified planning, unified offensive, except for the first wave of attacks, which were launched from all sides, and the rest of the attacks were fought alone.
Trying to test the means of the Han army, the corners of the Maha Hair's mouth outside the East City Gate curled a cruel smile, there is nothing surprising, is it still the same!
The real siege began. It was no longer just attacking the city from the front, and there were also large groups of Hu soldiers pushing ladder carts in both directions.
The battlefield with the smoke of gunpowder immediately boiled again, and the sound of killing was deafening.
The Hu soldiers who really attacked and killed were far more resilient than they were in the previous tentative attacks. At this time, the ladder truck was also more robust and heat-resistant than the previous similar ones.
I really don't take leather seriously, and the tall ladder trucks in the attack are really wrapped in a layer of raw hide. Although it can't be cowhide, whether it's a sheepskin or a horse, it can be soaked and wrapped in water, which can greatly improve the fire resistance of the ladder.
The dung juice was quickly exhausted, and the Hu soldiers who rushed up with the round shield were even more heroic, and at noon Zhu Biao was in the east city, and the Hu soldiers poured up on the urn city for the first time.
"Soldiers, kill me—" Li Maozhong shouted loudly.
Husband war, courage also. The Han army will not immediately collapse the battle situation because of the influx of Hulu at the head of the city, although the main body of the officers and soldiers defending the city is the infantry armor of the three counties. Don't look down on people just because they are county soldiers, in such a difficult and difficult environment to persist in the war of resistance, the hearts of every soldier and civilian in the three counties are stronger and firmer than diamonds.
