Chapter 50 The soldiers are fierce and die
Arrows rained down on the city wall, galloping and flying, and the soldiers under the city were like waves, undulating and falling, and then the people who were alive behind them swarmed up again.
There are constantly ladders erected high, carried on the wall, Qi Yufeng and other martial arts masters, constantly galloping on the city wall, slashing and killing the Yuan soldiers who entered the city, while the rest of the soldiers and the people are constantly smashed down with rockets and stones, delaying the enemy's offensive.
Qi Yufeng leaped on the city wall, tumbling and rolling, the white light of the Changbai sword lingered, the sword aura overflowed, and he didn't know how many opponents he had killed, and Duan Sixie, Shi Zong, Shi Xiu, Duan Qiangnu and others also showed their abilities, the long knife was invincible, everyone was drenched in blood and dirt.
Only in the distance, Han Yuniang was wearing a green coat, holding a short bow, standing on a wooden platform in the city, every time the enemy army climbed the city wall, an arrow hit the throat, so that it fell under the city wall, beside her, there were actually two peasant women who served and handed arrows to her, and there were several healthy soldiers on the side, constantly holding rattan shields, looking for straw dummies everywhere on the battlefield, pulling out arrow feathers, and passing them on.
A wave of offensive passed, the situation stopped for a while, Qi Yufeng looked at the mounds under the stage that were under the defense of the heavy army and giant shield of the Yuan soldiers, countless migrant workers were flying with pickaxes and shovels, and the higher and higher the base, he couldn't help frowning, sighed heavily, and Shi Zong next to him came over and asked, "How is it?" ”
Qi Yufeng rubbed his chest, coughed lightly, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little hungry." ”
Shi Zong's face was slightly stunned, and then he smiled: "Wait for us to hold on for a while, and the meal will be cooked." ”
Qi Yufeng nodded slightly, then looked at the mound and said, "When will their mound be as high as the city wall?" ”
Shi Zong's face also sank, shook his head and sighed: "If the enemy army leads ruthlessly, piling up mountains with the corpses of dead soldiers and horses, it will only take an hour or two, and the matter will be harmonious." "When the Yuan soldiers fought, they often piled up mountains with dead men and dead horses. To jump over the city wall, the so-called "riding a horse to the city wall", the Mongol war to destroy the gold, the historical facts are not far away, and it is still fresh in the memory of Shi Zong.
Qi Yufeng shook his head and said, "But their mound of dirt is quite far away from the city wall, so what use can it be?" ”
Shi Zong said: "They can be condescending. Shooting arrows from above, you can also investigate the movement of our city defenses, and although the ballistae and catapults of the Yuan soldiers have been broken by our giant crossbows, if there is only one left, our army is also extremely passive, and they have set up a ladder in less than a stone's throw here......"
Qi Yufeng heard this. Shocked, he shouted: "Then let's go over and kill for a while, anyway, the mound is very high, and they can't get up many soldiers and horses." ”
Shi Zong glanced at him and said sharply: "You can't kill people and kill crazy, thousands of people stepped forward and pressed it." How did you get back? ”
Qi Yufeng was silent for a moment, and muttered to himself: "There must be a way, there must be a way......
Seeing that he looked nervous, Shi Zong put a hand on his shoulder, patted it slightly, and comforted: "Yes, Master Leng Qian is sitting in the center, and he has not moved at this time. There must be a way to think of it. ”
After a while, the black pressure of the Yuan soldiers once again transported all kinds of siege equipment, at this time the arrows used in the crossbow in the village have long been exhausted, everyone has no choice but to pull up the longbow, thinking that it is resisting, and the three hundred people of Tianzimen are also reduced to zero. Scattered to various battlefields, thought to be geographical.
I only heard the soldiers all the way, wearing heavy armor, holding a siege all the way and shouting the trumpet forward. The shield protection is very tight. Just as they were marching to the bottom of the city, they suddenly heard a clear and neutral voice shouting from someone in the center of the wall: "Set fire!" "It's Leng Qian.
When the soldiers heard this shout, they hurriedly lit the scarecrow, threw them down together, and threw them on both sides of the siege hammer, and the straw was stacked on top of each other, burying the soldiers in it, and after a while, it burned many soldiers crying and shouting their mothers, and hurriedly crawled out of the fire.
But in less time, the other soldiers filled in the soil to extinguish the fire, carried the siege hammer and continued to move forward, and walked quickly to the city gate, only to hear the sound of "boom" and "boom" one after another, Qi Yufeng and others stood on the city tower, and couldn't help but be shocked, and then looked down, but saw that the gate made of bluestone had collapsed.
All the Yuan soldiers cheered and rushed to grab it, but after the thick smoke, it was clear that the siege had been smashed by the bluestone, and the blood of the Yuan soldiers who carried the beating was like a river, which was unbearable, and there was actually a city gate in front of them.
At this time, the Yuan soldiers couldn't help but be stunned, all looked depressed, and didn't know how to understand, Qi Yufeng stood on the city and sneered, while thinking in his heart, since this gate was closed, he was not ready to open it again, not only there were three city gates, but also huge stone piles behind them, and the city gate was the most heavily protected link in the city.
While he held on to the city defense, he paid close attention to the scene outside the city, although tens of thousands of people were busy, and the formation was constantly changing, if he looked carefully, he would be dazzled and dizzy, but there were three most critical points, which particularly concerned him.
The first is the enemy's artillery battalion, the Mongol soldiers are strong and sharp, the martial arts are prosperous, and the skill of casting cannons can be described as unparalleled in the world, they learned the method of this cannon from the hands of the Arabs, attacking the city and plundering the land, invincible, today this Naladin brought a hundred heavy cannons, if it comes to the door, the cottage will not be attacked, fortunately, Leng Qian mobilized a huge bed crossbow to defend, this hundred heavy artillery, but also temporarily useless.
Qi Yufeng had already expected this Naladin's plan at this time, he had previously used this heavy cannon as bait to force the Wusan people to use the giant bow to defend one after another, consuming true qi, so he dared to act like a big man and enter the city alone, otherwise even if he was too arrogant, he would not dare to say that he was the opponent of all the masters in this village.
And the second is the enemy's team digging and digging pits, at this time the northwest weather is cold, frozen soil is difficult to dig, but on the Loess Plateau, the thick soil is far up to one or two zhang thick, very soft, the cave dug by the cottage is from this, so this section can not be unguarded.
But once a passage is dug and the enemy comes out of the endless slaughter of the village, there will be chaos.
The third is this high platform, look at this Naladin with soldiers, but especially to this high platform as a priority, hundreds of old and young people in the snake village, but the work of a month, this city wall was built, and the opponent now has more than 1,000 people, constantly carrying the burden of soil, if you want to build a high slope, but it is not difficult.
As long as the high platform is completed, thousands of soldiers will pour in together, and no matter how high Qi Yufeng's swordsmanship is. No matter how strong the Wusanren martial arts strategy is, they can't do anything about it.
Only the war drums and thunder could be heard, and the soldiers of the village and the Mongol army were shouting and fighting. The defenders next to the city wall had strong bows and crossbows, shooting outward, Qi Yufeng killed for several hours in a row, and his back was sore, but he could only grit his teeth to support. Waiting for reinforcements to help.
A company pushed several people down the tower, wiped the necks of two people with a sword, and saw that it was temporarily peaceful in front of him, he couldn't help but shake his head, shrank in a corner of the city wall, and closed his eyes. Take a few breaths.
At this time, he was already exhausted, and he also suffered several minor injuries on his body, at this time, he was soaked with sweat, his armor was sharpened, and the pain on his body was magnified tenfold, and it was almost painful.
But he took a nap. The pain quickly disappeared, and became an ethereal numbness, and although there were thousands of galloping horses around him, screaming, and killing, the sound was loud and small, sometimes close in front of him, sometimes far away in the sky. Emeral.
He almost felt that there seemed to be an illusion in front of him, as if he had never grown up in the 21st century in his life, nor had he experienced the martial arts training of the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and he seemed to be killing endlessly from birth. Each sword strikes the enemy's throat and chest, bringing out a stream of warm blood. Only in this way can you earn the right to continue living for a moment, and then after a few breaths, it repeats itself.
I don't know how long it was, he slowly opened his eyes, turned his head, blinked, he seemed to feel that a few hours had passed, maybe there was only a cup of tea, although the biggest wish in his heart now was to ignore the three seven twenty-one, and sleep upside down for three days and three nights, but he still held on to the wall with one hand and forcibly supported himself to stand up.
Looking up, there was no enemy in these two sections of the city tower, and he was about to step forward to see if there were any Yuan soldiers in other places to enter the city, and when he rushed to the rescue, suddenly a crisp voice shouted: "Qi Yufeng!" ”
Qi Yufeng looked back, but saw a person wearing ill-fitting chain mail with a black face standing on the steps of the city wall, with a pair of black eyes, looking at him.
He looked back suspiciously and asked, "Are you?" ”
The man hurriedly wiped his face a few times, opened his mouth and said, "It's me." ”
Qi Yufeng watched her wipe her cheeks, the black mud became one by one, and her face was even more dirty and unrecognizable, but she opened her mouth, revealing two rows of snow-white crystal teeth, and listening to her voice, she recognized him as Cao Caixiaolai, the daughter of Cao Sanduo.
Immediately, he was shocked: "Right now, the enemy army is attacking the city, and arrows are flying everywhere, why did you come here?" ”
Cao Caixiao smiled slightly, took out an oiled paper bag from his arms and said, "The stewed chicken of Aunt Mao in the back cave is cooked, I stole two chicken legs and sent them to you first." ”
Qi Yufeng was overjoyed when he saw it, he took it over, opened his mouth and took a bite, who knew that this chicken leg was very hot, he opened his mouth and stammered for a long time, but he was reluctant to spit it out.
It was easy to roll his eyes for a long time before he ate this bite of chicken, Cao Caixiao saw that he actually bit half of the chicken leg in one bite, that is, he swallowed the bone in one bite, and he didn't chew it, so he swallowed it so hard, he couldn't help but be stunned, opened his mouth, and looked at him in surprise.
Qi Yufeng learned the previous lesson, and he chewed slowly, and he blamed Cao Caixiao while eating: "Right now, the soldiers in this village have fought for a day, and no one has eaten, how can we be specialized?" ”
Cao Caixiao saw that he ate faster than anyone else, and he had to blame himself, so he couldn't help pouting dissatisfied: "Everyone will be distributed in a while, I'll just take some first, you have saved so many people's lives, what does it matter if you eat a chicken leg first." ”
Qi Yufeng saw that her temples were messy, her face was dark, and the armor she was wearing didn't know who she was pulled from, so he immediately felt grateful, nodded and smiled: "Thank you, but it's dangerous here, you better go back quickly, and when the battle is over, let's talk again." ”
A smile bloomed on Cao Caixiao's face, and he nodded vigorously: "Hmm! ”
Qi Yufeng grabbed a shield casually and shouted, "You go back with this on your back, and if you hear the sound of wind in the sky, hurry up and stay behind the bunker." ”
Cao Caixiao nodded, grabbed the shield and said, "Okay!" ”
Qi Yufeng was anxious for military affairs, and immediately had no time to care, so he patted her shoulder casually, patted her on the buttocks, and said, "Let's go!" After saying that, he hurried to the battlefield of the western section of the city wall.
Cao Caixiao was slapped by him, and his whole body trembled, and he could barely move, and it took a long time. Only then did he walk slowly to the city, even so, but he was numb all over, almost unable to help himself, and finally walked back to the cave after walking for a long time. But her hands and feet were still trembling, even if there were heart-rending shouts and roars outside, she didn't care, her eyes stared straight at the fire in front of her.
Qi Yufeng's shot was originally a casual intimate act between buddies, and when he was happy, he even treated his father and uncle. also slapped it twice, but under his carelessness, he used the wrong occasion, even if Cao Caixiao was born in troubled times, he was the child of a large family, and there were no ripples in his heart.
At this time, her heart was both happy and afraid. This powerless girl is actually obsessed with this bloody battlefield.
Qi Yufeng rushed to the western section, and saw that Duan Siyi and the others were able to repel the attack of a row of cloud ladders, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How?" ”
Duan Siye ignored him, and shouted: "Carry the injured person down, check the weapon, and see if the knife and gun are damaged." Mao Laoba, take your people to ask if there are any arrows! ”
Mao Laoba left in response, he turned his head, sniffed, and suddenly said in surprise: "Something to eat?" ”
Qi Yufeng hurriedly took out the remaining chicken leg and shouted, "I'll get it for you first." ”
When Duan Siye saw it, he suddenly took the oil paper package in his hand. shouted: "Damn, I'm about to starve to death...... "He opened his mouth to bite."
At this moment, suddenly a person behind him said: "Hey! I want it too! ”
Duan Siye was stunned when he heard this, and looked back. He looked at his hand again, then swallowed a mouthful of spit, reached out and threw the chicken leg over.
The two looked sideways, and saw that on the high platform behind the city wall, Han Yuniang took the chicken leg, without any style, and immediately chewed it, and couldn't help but smile.
Duan Si said with a smile: "The little girl's martial arts are not good, but the archery skills are good, this time she can hold this round, but she relies on her." ”
Qi Yufeng said ashamedly: "It's all my fault, I was in a daze, and I actually fell asleep on the battlefield." ”
Duan Siye shook his head and said, "You didn't sleep much longer......"
At this moment, he suddenly saw several cloud ladders standing high, and with a "bang", they were set up on the city wall, Duan Sixie's face suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Go, go to the east." ”
He is holding a mace, Qi Yufeng has a long sword, all of which are first-class weapons to defend the city, and the Yuan army has been hit by him with a stick whenever he comes up, often the blades are broken, and the bones are broken, and Qi Yufeng specially packs up the Yuan soldiers who have climbed the city wall, one sword, no one has ever been able to survive under his sword.
The two of them rushed to the eastern section, and the cloud ladders they only heard fell one after another, bringing a strong wind, and a strong smell of blood mixed with the cold air came to their nostrils.
And countless soldiers were clinging to the ladder, just waiting for the ladder to be stable, and then climbing upward.
Duan Sixie was the first to arrive, and with a mace slapp, he smashed the head of a Yuan soldier to a pulp, his brain burst out, and the splashed minced meat was pasted on Qi Yufeng's face, but he didn't have time to wipe it, and immediately waved his sword, poof, a few times, and the three Yuan soldiers who could climb the city tower were not able to see the southeast and northwest clearly, so they were hit by a sword in the chest, and they couldn't die anymore.
The team on the city tower, although it was originally just a nearby cottage bandit, but at this time it had already been tempered by the battlefield and had become a journeyman, and everyone had already crossed cover, cooperated with each other, and each used their swords and guns, and rushed over in unison with a shout.
Every time they killed someone, they couldn't help but scream, as if otherwise, the pent-up fear in their hearts would not be enough to turn into the courage and strength to continue to fight hard.
Qi Yufeng saw a fierce general of the Yuan Dynasty, rushed to the city wall, rushed left and right, and killed several people in a row. Immediately jumped forward and slashed his palm, the man was caught off guard, but he was not afraid, and with a swing of the horizontal knife, he was about to stab Qi Yufeng's chest.
Qi Yufeng was able to let him succeed, his palm was a false move, at this time, his wrist turned, grabbed his forearm like an appendage, used his real strength, and twisted his shoulder with a "click", and the big man screamed and fell to his knees.
Qi Yufeng grabbed his head, forced him to raise his head, and with a slash of the diagonal sword in his other hand, he cut off his head cleanly.
This strong man like an iron tower, even if he knelt on the ground, he was the height of an ordinary person, and his head suddenly disappeared, spurting out a column of blood that was a few feet high, and drenched Qi Yufeng all over his face.
Qi Yufeng's blood was boiling, and he suddenly shouted, and the sound shook the four fields, and many Yuan soldiers saw this bloody man, their eyes were crazy, and they were so frightened that they let go of their hands and almost fell off the ladder.
When the soldiers who wanted to escape saw the leader like this, they were also like crazy, they howled in unison, and stepped forward bravely, killing all the soldiers who broke down and fled, and even jumped directly from the city wall.
Qi Yufeng killed a few more people, and when he saw that he was relieved again, he couldn't help but sigh heavily, and leaned against the wall again.
He felt that his head was very painful, his mouth was dry, his body was up and down, he had no strength at all, his arms and legs were soft, and he didn't even have the strength to lift it, but he also knew that as long as Yuan Bing rushed up again, then he would definitely have the strength to lift the sword.
He leaned against the wall for a long time before he lowered his head and looked at the dense crowd of people under the city. (To be continued.)
