Chapter 159: Boosting Morale
Jin Se Mixiang's words made Wu Ruotang's eyes immediately shine, and he said energetically: "Ha! What you say makes so much sense, I'm speechless! ”
Jinse Mixiang: "~~~~!" ”
"You're right, why should I be depressed, I'm determined to be in the world, what is this little difficulty!" Wu Ruotang said proudly.
Jin Se Mixiang frowned and said: "You must get rid of this shortcoming that is easy to get excited and frustrated, so that you can hope to achieve great things." ”
"A good man is in troubled times, the big deal is to die on the battlefield, the corpse of Margery, and what else is to be afraid of." Wu Ruotang sneered, but a pair of tiger eyes gradually lit up.
Wu Ruotang and Jin Se Mixiang stood side by side on the wall, and outside the city was the Quanzhou army, which was at its peak and the flag was like the sea, and the number increased to 30,000.
Feng Tianhang's Chinese army was spread out on a small hill, mainly cavalry, and the heavily equipped armored army was the secondary.
The vanguard army consisted of shield soldiers, archers, axemen, and fortifications, and was equipped with the necessary tools for siege, such as alberjacks, ladders, and building carts.
The left and right flank armies each had 5,000 men, and all of them were cavalry.
There were still two units in the rear of the Chinese army, which could be used to defend the rear road and serve as reinforcements.
At this time, the sun rises in the middle of the sky, shining on the earth, reflecting the shimmering brilliance of weapons, adding to the atmosphere of killing.
The drums of war are beating.
More than 70 iron-plated vertical carts dedicated to blocking arrows began to move in the direction of Nanhaiwei, and there were more than 10 archers hidden behind each vehicle, as long as they reached an appropriate distance, they could shoot arrows from behind the large iron plate that was erected two feet high to cover the attack of others.
The carts began to push forward, moving towards them like towers.
The warriors on the stairs can not only cover the entire city within the range of arrows because the height is similar to the wall, but also directly step on the wall and attack the city when it is close to the wall.
The trumpets sounded.
Hundreds of catapults, pushed by hundreds of fortifiers, came first and overtook the building carts. Chase after the arrow-blocking iron plate car.
The 30,000 Quanzhou troops shouted in unison, and the war horses neighed wildly, changing the color of the situation outside the Acropolis of the South China Sea.
"No, keep going like this. There is no need to fight, we will be discouraged! Jin Se Mixiang frowned.
Wu Ruotang frowned, and then said in a loud voice: "The commander of Nanhaiwei is here to make Wu Xiaotang, who dares to fight with me?" ”
Wu Ruotang's internal strength was already quite strong, and his voice spread far away. The voices of tens of thousands of Quanzhou troops cannot be covered up! The soldiers and civilians defending the city were terrified, and Wu Ruotang's shout suddenly made them feel like they had taken a tranquilizer, and the army's morale was greatly boosted!
Jin Se Mixiang was even more enthusiastic, at this moment, she suddenly resented why she was not a man, otherwise, she would have to lead the troops to fight with the invading enemy.
Feng Tianhang is the master of the army, so naturally he will not have a private PK with Wu Ruotang.
"Lord Wu, you are also an important minister of the country. The world is blessed by the country! How could such a deviant thing be done? Feng Tianhang stood on the high platform and said bitterly.
Wu Ruotang was slightly stunned, and then said to Jin Se Mixiang on the side: "This guy can really blow, why did I receive the grace of the country?" ”
"It's all played like this in TV series, there's no need to worry about this!" Jin Se Mixiang said helplessly.
"Lord Feng, in fact, I was wronged, His Royal Highness Taisun and the holy decree of the imperial court will come down soon, if the holy decree says that I rebelled and rebelled, I am willing to kill myself in front of the three armies and apologize to the world!" When Wu Ruotang said this. shed a few tears, looking like a loyal minister who had been wronged, which made people feel sad to watch.
Feng Tianhang snorted coldly, and then said, "Since Lord Wu said that he was wronged. Then you open the city gates, let my army enter the city, and I will wait with you for the judgment of His Royal Highness Taisun!" ”
"My small city, where can I accommodate the big Buddha of Lord Feng, if you don't dislike it, please wait outside the city for two days. I believe that the decree of the imperial court will come down soon, and I will personally ask Lord Feng for guilt at that time!" Wu Ruotang continued.
Of course, Feng Tianhang knew that this was Wu Xiaotang's delaying tactic, this guy wanted to wait for the elite soldiers who attacked Qiongzhou to come back, and when the time came, he would stop cooking.
"Since Lord Wu wants to go all the way to the dark, then don't blame the official for being ruthless!" After speaking, Feng Tianhang ordered the flag to be unfurled, and the fortifications and shield soldiers pushing the ladder began to move, followed by the wooden chariots that rushed into the city wall gate.
Wu Ruotang's gaze returned to the outside of the city, and the arrow blocking vehicle was gradually approaching the trebuchet's throw.
"Boss, ours can throw stones and arrows!" Jin Se Mika looked at the approaching enemy army and reminded in a low voice.
Wu Ruotang stared at him, and then said: "Wait a little longer, wait for them to get closer, and the stones and arrows thrown out will be more lethal!" ”
The generals on the side immediately sent an order down to inform the soldiers and civilians defending the city not to act rashly.
Wu Ruotang thought about it in his heart, and felt that there was still a certain amount of time before the enemy reached the range he predicted, so he immediately turned to the generals behind him and said, "You guys, come with me, Mixiang, you stay here and sit down!" ”
Wu Ruotang strode along the city wall, followed by a group of generals defending the city, and the elite troops had been taken away, although these generals could not be compared with the heroes of Liangshan, but they were already short generals.
Wu Ruotang comforted the guards of the city and cheered them up, Wu Ruotang was the highest official of the South China Sea Guard, and he was also a dragon on weekdays, and ordinary soldiers were not very familiar with it. The momentum of the Quanzhou army has already made many defenders feel frightened. But as soon as everyone saw this supreme commander's eyes flashing, his figure was quite majestic, he walked with a dragon, his voice revealed a strong fighting spirit and confidence, and he had an unbeatable style, so everywhere there were bursts of salutes and cheers, and the morale was greatly boosted.
After walking nearly half a mile of the city wall, Wu Ruotang turned around and walked back, and shouted: 'Listen to the soldiers, our army will win, our army will win!' ‘
Wu Ruotang's shouts mixed with internal force spread to all directions and to the ears of every soldier, which made the army's heart excited again, and tens of thousands of people also cheered and shouted!
The shouts of the Quanzhou army were drowned out by the cheers of the defenders, and the generals were even more passionate, and the fear in their hearts also dissipated.
"My lord, can you throw stones and arrows?" A general looked at the slow Quanzhou military road.
"Don't worry, wait!" Wu Ruotang gently tapped the city bricks, silently calculating in his heart.
Under the nervous gaze of everyone, the engineering equipment of the Quanzhou Army slowly advanced, this feeling of depression was enough to suffocate, but as soon as the defenders saw the calm and calm Wu Ruotang, their hearts swelled with full fighting spirit! Adults are not afraid of death, and if we stay on the city walls, what do we have to be afraid of! (To be continued.) )
