Chapter 62: Battle!
"Get ready! Yi'er, you will go out of the city with me to fight later! Xian'er stayed in the city. Hui Yuzhong put his hand on Hui Shangyi's left shoulder and said earnestly, "You must keep Qi Su." ”
"Yes, father." Hui Shangyi and Hui Shangxian replied in unison.
After Hui Yuzhong left, Hui Shangxian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was defending the city and did not need to face those tough Zheng soldiers.
"How long will it take to get to Qisu?" Dugu Yin stopped his horse and looked into the distance, looked at the soldier next to him and asked.
"General, it's probably an hour before you arrive." The soldier next to him looked at the map and said.
"Well, inform the whole army to move forward at full speed!" Dugu Yin was in a very comfortable mood, thinking that Qi Su would soon be taken down by him and Yizhou.
"Yes!" The soldier got the order and conveyed Dugu Yin's order. Zheng Guo's army increased its march and marched at full speed towards Qisu.
"Is everything ready?" Hui Yuzhong is now on the city tower and asks Hui Shangyi next to him.
"Everything is ready, Hui Shangxian and his soldiers will release arrows on the city tower, I will lead a team of men and horses to outflank from the left, and Ah Xiu will lead a team to attack from the right." Hui Shangyi said all the arrangements, "This should stop them." ”
"Well, that's all there is to it. Each of you brings 15,000 soldiers, and I will bring 30,000 to attract from the front. Xian'er with five thousand archers, and the rest of the soldiers are stationed in the city, and if we can't carry it, these people are the last hole cards. Hui Yuzhong looked into the distance and sighed, "Hey, get ready, they should be here soon." ”
It didn't take long for Zheng Guo's army to arrive, and it looked like there were more than 100,000 people.
"The people who live in Qi listen to me, and those who know each other will come down to surrender to me!" Dugu Yin asked a general to call for war, "Our general Du will give you better treatment!" ”
"Humph! Dream for me! Hui Yuzhong listened to the following call for battle spirit not to fight in one place, "I don't know who loses and who wins!" ”
"Hmph, Hui Yuzhong! I advise you not to be fearless! Dugu Yin touched the whip in his hand and looked at Hui Yuzhong and them, "General Ben knows that your Hui family army does not have many soldiers, how can you resist my 150,000 army?" ”
"What? One hundred and fifty thousand? Xie Yunxiu's eyes widened, originally they calculated that they were fighting against 100,000 troops, but now there are 50,000 more, Xie Yunxiu didn't know if the original battle plan could work, "It's too hanging." ”
"The Hui family army obeys the order!" There was not a trace of panic in Hui Yuzhong's deep voice, "Follow me to defend against Zheng Guo's army!" ”
"Yes!" The voice of the Hui family army resounded in the sky, and the people in Qisu City heard the roar.
"Hmph, it's not enough!" Dugu Yin glanced contemptuously at Hui Yuzhong on the city tower, "All the soldiers listen to the order and attack Qisu for me!" ”
"Yes!" Zheng Guo's soldiers began to pupa up.
"Fight!" At this time, Hui Yuzhong had already fought with Dugu Yin, although Dugu Yin was injured, but he was still able to resist Hui Yuzhong's attack.
The Hui army has already been defeated in numbers, but their morale is still very high. In the face of the menacing Zheng army, they moved forward bravely without a sense of fear.
The sky was dyed red by the sun, and the red was a little unreal. Blood splattered on the battlefield, staining the flowers and trees next to it red. The two complement each other, and there is a sense of beauty.
"Rush!" Hui Shangyi and Xie Yunxiu saw the opportunity and attacked Zheng Guo's army from both sides.
Originally, Dugu Yin thought that the Hui family army only had tens of thousands of people led by Hui Yuzhong and thousands of soldiers shooting arrows on the city tower, but he didn't expect that the Hui family army was also ambushed on both sides. No wonder he didn't see Hui Shangyi, it turned out that he had already laid an ambush waiting for them to enter the trap. Dugu Yin lost his mind for a moment, and Hui Yuzhong took the opportunity to attack Dugu Yin. Fortunately, Dugu Yin came back to his senses in time and blocked Hui Yuzhong's attack.
"Don't panic, keep attacking!" Dugu Yin gritted his teeth and shouted.
After hearing Dugu Yin's words, Zheng Guo's soldiers stabilized their positions and continued to attack. But the Hui family army is not easy to mess with, knowing that they are at a disadvantage, they fight desperately. Bloody battles until the sun sets, and the two sides have not yet decided the winner. Even Xie Yunxiu was red-eyed, don't look at Xie Yunxiu who looks weak and weak, but let him go to the battlefield is also a good soldier!
However, Zheng Guo's army was slowly defeated by the Hui family's army, and the Hui's army became more and more courageous. Dugu Yin also saw that these soldiers were exhausted, so he simply retreated.
"Retreat!" Dugu Yin shouted, and all the soldiers of Zheng Guo slowly wanted to retreat.
Originally, Hui Shangyi wanted to continue the pursuit, but was stopped by Xie Yunxiu.
"Ah Xiu, what are you stopping me for?" Hui Shangyi looked at Xie Yunxiu with a puzzled expression, "Now you should take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill their morale!" ”
"If you go now, who can you fight with this soldier? You can't come back. Xie Yunxiu glared at Hui Shangyi angrily, "You are tantamount to sending you to death like this." ”
"Yi'er, you're so reckless! Come back! Hui Yuzhong also frowned, "Our soldiers are also tired, let's go back first." ”
"Okay." Hui Shangyi hesitated for a while, and finally compromised.
After returning to Hui Mansion, Hui Shangyi, Hui Yuzhong and Xie Yunxiu sat together to discuss ways to deal with Zheng Guo.
"It seems that Zheng Guo has recently recruited troops again." Xie Yunxiu frowned and squeezed the folding fan in her hand, "This will be troublesome." "591 net
"What are you afraid of! Tomorrow I will take the troops to fight them! Hui Shangyi stood up and patted his chest, "I don't believe it, I can't beat them!" ”
"You really can't beat them!" Xie Yunxiu looked at the brave and unscrupulous Hui Shangyi with a dark face, "I said before that if you want to fight Zheng Guo, you can only outwit it." ”
"Then you'd better figure it out!" Hui Shangyi couldn't sit still, "There's nothing to do now, we can only fight hard, maybe we can still win!" ”
"You can't win just like that." Hui Yuzhong also shook his head, "It would be nice if there was a more powerful bow and crossbow." ”
"The general is right!" Xie Yunxiu nodded in agreement, "Today I saw that the arrows released upstairs had a good effect, suppressing many people in Zheng Guo, but the rate of fire and lethality were too low, and the impact was limited." ”
"You mean a more powerful crossbow?" Hui Shangyi didn't like to beat around the bush and asked directly.
"Well, but we only have crossbows like this, and it's a waste of time to work on this." Xie Yunxiu sighed, "Even if it is developed, it is not necessarily, Qi Su may have been attacked." ”
"This ......" Hui Shangyi was speechless, so he had to walk around the room.
In the courtyard of Liluo, Xiao Li was still practicing the meniscus knife, and at this time he heard the news that Hui Shangyi was back.
"Plum blossom, Hui Shangyi is back?" Xiao Li did not stop the movements in his hands.
"Yes, the young general has just come back not long ago, and now he is discussing big things in the master's study." Meihua nodded, "I heard from other people that this time Zheng Guo has a large number of people, and it is almost impossible for the young generals to win the battle." ”
"How many people are there in Zheng Guo?" Xiao Li raised his head and looked at the plum blossoms.
"It seems like there are more than 100,000 of them." Meihua wasn't sure, "I just listened to what others said, and I don't know very well." ”
"Well, got it, you go down." Xiao Li nodded, cleaned up and left the pear courtyard.
While Hui Shangyi was pondering, a subordinate came in to report.
"General, the young lady asks to see you."
"What is she doing here?" Hui Yuzhong frowned, a little displeased.
"By the way, I remember you said before that Xiao Li has a repeater!" Xie Yunxiu's eyes lit up, "Maybe I can help!" ”
"What is a repeater?" Hui Yuzhong looked at Xie Yunxiu suspiciously and asked.
"I tried the repeater last time, and it was very powerful, and it fired four arrows at once. I can shoot through a thick plank. Xie Yunxiu said excitedly, "Maybe the repeater is really useful!" ”
"Please come in, young lady." When Hui Yuzhong heard this, he immediately asked his subordinates to call Xiao Li in.
"I've seen my father." Xiao Li saluted, "I heard that the Hui family's army was defeated by Zheng Guo's army, I wonder if there is anything I can help?" ”
"It is true that there is a huge disparity in strength, and the fact that we can draw today is entirely because the soldiers of Zheng Guo have walked for a long time and have exerted too much physical strength. Otherwise, we might lose. Hui Yuzhong sighed and shook his head helplessly, "It's too difficult." ”
"I think you can only outwit in this situation." Xiao Li thought for a while and looked at a few people and said, "But I can provide you with the repeater I made." ”
"I was about to ask you about it!" Xie Yunxiu has begun to slowly change to Xiao Li, "If I can have your repeater, I think it's completely okay to hold Qi Su." ”
"However, the method of making this repeater is too complicated, and the technology here may not be able to do it." Xiao Li frowned, "It's not impossible to do it, but the power will be reduced a little." ”
"This ......" Xie Yunxiu clenched the folding fan, "Try it, can the young lady transform it?" ”
"It's definitely possible, I'm a weapons engineer!" Xiao Li puffed up his chest and was very confident, "I can make the drawings of the transformation now." ”
"Really?" Hui Shangyi was a little surprised, and Hui Yuzhong, who was sitting in the middle, was also a little surprised. He never knew that Xiao Li had such an extraordinary, how could a young lady from a scholarly family know these things?
"But, there's a problem." Xiao Li stopped, "How many repeaters do you need?" ”
"It could take a few thousand." Xie Yunxiu looked at Xiao Li, "At least three thousand." ”
"Isn't that too much? How do you make 3,000 repeaters and arrows in a short period of time? Xiao Li shook his head, "If you use it urgently, you can't do so much for a while." Do a hundred at most. ”
"This ......" Xie Yunxiu also knew that it was impossible to make three thousand a day, but if he wanted to win against Zheng Guo's army, he had to increase his force value, "Is three hundred okay?" ”
"A hundred at most. Not to mention that craftsmen can't do it, even if they can do it, it is difficult to make a hundred repeaters in such a short time. Xiao Li sighed and shook his head.
