Fifty-seven Throwing stones to ask for directions

Jelle left in a huff, and everyone behind him was silent. But there is nothing to be done about him, because he is the iron commander of the Jerebu and the undefeated god of war. The battle of the people of the Qiang follows the old system of the grassland, 300 is a Mouke, 10 Mouke is Meng'an, above Meng'an is the military marshal, above the military marshal is 10,000 households, and above 10,000 households is the capital. And no matter who is the patriarch, he is the unchanging capital and the supreme military commander of the tribe. Because he is Yelemeng, the god of war who has not tasted defeat in the battlefield for decades.

The reason why Yale Dashi dared to directly confront the Great Elder was because he had a strong exchange with the elders and Yele in advance, and the Great Elder did not know about the so-called tribal meeting that was held, it was just a formality. The other elders agreed to support him, because he promised that after the matter was completed, he would not share a penny of the Great Elder's land and treasures, and the other elders would divide them at will; And Jelle Meng agreed to support him, only because he was Jellef's younger brother, the nominally most orthodox successor, he knew that the big thing was close at hand, and all the chaos at this time could lead to the loss of the war in the near future, and the election of Jelle Dashi was the smoothest way.

Early in the morning of the second day, Chen Lihua saw a black line surging in the distance, like a dragon churning, and looked at it, it was Liang Guotie riding in black armor. About 30,000 iron cavalry were divided into three teams, led by 30,000 households, and went to the north, west, and east gates to station.

The first two days after the camp was set up were calm, and the Liang army only cut down trees and built camps, without any signs of attacking the city. But this makes experienced veterans more cautious.

This shows that the Liang army is going to get serious, and they plan to wait until all the equipment is completed and enough Jin people are recruited before attacking in a big way. After a few days of siege, there will be ladders, wooden curtains, nest carts, etc., and countless miscellaneous soldiers will cling to it like ants, and it will be a fierce battle. Lao Zhao looked at the quiet camp outside, explained, and said but crooked the topic.

"It's a pity, Your Highness, the Drunken Spring Pavilion you promised us hasn't been fulfilled yet, it's a pity." Lao Zhao, or Zhao Rulong, said regretfully, and smacked his lips.

"You're a step slower, weirdos?" Chen Lihua squinted and scratched her eyes and said.

As promised that night, after holding back all night, the two hundred elite soldiers trained the refugees how to defend the city for a day during the day, and at night everything was stable, and a group of rough men who had been holding back the fire in their stomachs screamed and rushed to the Drunken Spring Pavilion. But when they got there, the door was closed, and the building was empty.

"It's really weird, how can a good Qinglou be gone?" Lao Li, or Li Zhigang, was also muttering annoyedly.

By the morning of the fifth day, something had finally changed, and a thin line had poured in from the three large camps. After a while, the thin line approached the moat, and gradually it could be seen: it was a thin front composed of Jin people, said to be an army, more like the common people, all ragged, staggering, unarmed, each carrying a basket of earth.

Near the city, out of range of bows and arrows. These people took shovels and began to dig hard, and there were also men on the side to supervise, and when they saw anyone moving slowly, they would whip them over, and when everyone had a basket full of soil on their backs, Liang Jun gave an order, and both women and children rushed towards the moat with their heads down.

"They're going to fill the river." Wang Dewei on the side said, and at the same time nodded his head, and the soldier opened his bow and arrows, and he was about to shoot a volley.

"Wait." Chen Lihua stopped Wang Dewei's order.

"Let them go." Chen Lihua ordered.

"But......" Wang Dewei hesitated for a while.

"It's nothing, even if you don't keep bowing, it will be delayed for half a day at most. When it was the turn to attack the city, the opponent was sleepy, which increased the difficulty of defending the city. Chen Lihua explained.

"Not to mention, there are many trees around here, and they will soon be able to make a floating trench bridge. So it doesn't matter, let them fill it in. ”

The people who filled in the earth were surprised to find that there were no deadly bows and arrows on the city tower, and when they looked up, the long spears on the city wall were like forests, the colorful flags were like clouds, and the longbows and crossbows were all ready to be fired. Everything seemed to be the same as the other armies, and the only difference might be the red coat.

The people of the city understood the reason for this after a little thought. Silently poured the earth into the river, knelt on the ground, bowed his head, hid his face and left. Those who are delicate have even cried bitterly.

"What's the matter with the damn kneeling and filling the river. Is it fearless to know that good people are bullying people? Wang Dewei pounded hard on the wall, "What kind of world is this?" ”

In one morning and half an afternoon, the moat was filled, and in an ordinary war, how could there be a three-day battle around the moat. The horn sounded, and the poorly clothed "auxiliary army" threw down the bamboo baskets in their hands and fled in a hurry.

At the front of the neat military formation, there are rows of wooden curtains, about ten meters high, with three layers, each layer has a thick wooden plank in front to block the arrows defending the city, and in the layer there are archers and axes, which are thrown in the distance, and there are elite sword and axe men jumping onto the city wall in the battle. There are some cloud ladders mixed between the wooden curtains, which are not the simple bamboo ladders in film and television dramas, but huge objects with six wheels about six meters high, only a little smaller than the wooden mantle. Inside, the two ladders are folded together and stretched out when they reach the wall. At that time, under the cover of the wooden curtain, the soldiers quickly climbed the ladder. Between the tall curtains and the ladders were dwarf chariots and ramps, mingled with other behemoths, like wild boars raised by the giants' armies.

The catapults of the Jerebuk were the first to attack, and dozens and hundreds of pounds of stones roared and smashed on the city wall, smashing into the city.

"Hold your ground!" The 5,000 Jin'er Army, which had taken refuge before, played a role, and now they were renamed the "Sigui Army", shouting and scolding the hesitant recruits, stabilizing the formation that might have fled directly in panic.

After all the catapults in the Yale Department were within range, Chen Lihua waved her hand, and a stone roared up and smashed fifty meters in front of the Catapult position of the Yale Ministry.

Jereshi was about to laugh when he saw another stone fly over, this time a little closer, about twenty meters away. Yale's big stone smiled at the elders who surrounded him:

"After all, it's a woman who plays at home, and she is childish. The catapult was not allowed in the first place, and she also launched stones one by one, and if she wants to use this to knock down our catapult, it will be the year of the monkey? ”

The elders around him laughed and cheered. The last stone flew over the head of the Jellebubuchet and fell lonely.
