Chapter 228: Conspiracy (Favorites, Recommendations, Subscribes)
Most of the barbarian warriors were good horsemen, and at this time, they flexibly controlled their horses, dodged the arrows fired by the crossbows, and rushed towards Ando's position.
When there were still 200 guns left in the Ando gun formation, the cavalry of the Bai Aman tribe drew their bows and arrows, and hundreds of bows and arrows shot at the opponent's dense gun formation in unison with a whistling sound of breaking through the air.
If it comes to equestrianism and archery, this group of spearmen in Ando County naturally cannot be compared with the elite cavalry of the White Barbarian Department, not to mention that the gun array in Ando County is dense and compact at this time, and the barbarians basically do not need to aim, they shoot at people with their bows, and between breaths, ordinary barbarians have already shot two arrows, and those with superb skills have shot three to five arrows.
The defenders of Ando County were unmoved, looking at the oncoming rain of arrows, they just bowed their heads slightly, and used the scarf on their heads to protect their heads and faces, always ensuring that the formation did not loosen in the slightest.
There was a clanging noise, and countless arrows poured down, shooting on everyone's armor, some arrows fell to the ground, and some were stuck in the soldiers' armor, only a few unfortunate fellows were shot by arrows at the links of the iron armor on their bodies, and suddenly red blood gushed out.
In the first round of confrontation, the two sides shot each other in vain, and it could only be regarded as an attack on each other, the number of hard crossbows of the Ando defenders was small, and the hit rate was low, as long as the hit was hit, it must be either dead or wounded, and the bow and arrow of the White Barbarian Department shot quite accurately, but it was also helpless for the Ando garrison, a monster covered in iron armor.
Some of the defenders of Ando County looked extremely terrifying, their bodies were covered with barbarian feather arrows, and they looked like a hedgehog, but in fact he did not suffer the slightest damage, and after knocking out the hanging arrows with his hands, it was the same as before, which did not affect him to continue fighting at all.
Under the military fortress in Anhu County, there was a calm, whether it was above or below the city, it fell into a strange quiet, Gud'Archie seemed to have no intention of attacking the city, more like using force to deter, and Zeng Qi, who stayed in the military fortress, felt that life was like a year, and his heart was beating all day long, and there was always a feeling that something bad was going to happen.
After Tian Dapeng left, Zeng Qi, who was in the year of the sixtieth year, did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and even packed his luggage and moved to live in the city tower with the soldiers. Zeng Qike is not a weak scholar who only knows how to talk on paper, in the years he has followed Tian Shunchang, he has made suggestions for Tian Shunchang many times, and he has followed the county leader to the front several times.
Now this situation is so weird that Zeng Qi's whole heart is in his throat, he forcibly overcame this inexplicable fear, and asked the guards beside him:
"How long will it take for the Marquis to return?"
In just one day, Zeng Qi has asked this question countless times, Xia Dehai, a thousand household chiefs who stayed behind, shook his head helplessly, and the two looked at the bright fire in the Gud'Archie camp in the distance through the night, Zeng Qi suddenly asked:
"Xia Qianhu, you are an old man in the army, and you have fought several battles with the barbarians with the Marquis of Tian Junhou, do you want to tell me whether Goode Archie will choose to attack the city?"
Xia Dehai is a strong black man in his early thirties, with long shoulders and a round waist, a body of tendons and flesh, and his limbs seem to have inexhaustible strength.
"Mr. Zeng, you are really too worried, Gudarchie now has only more than 1,000 people in the army, he just wants to attack the city, so he is also powerless? More than a thousand barbarians are not enough to even stuff our teeth, and they still want to take our military fortress? ”
Zeng Qi sighed silently, if Tian Dapeng was still in the city, then the military fortress in Anhu County was naturally as stable as Mount Tai, and there was no need to worry at all.
However, with Tian Junhou leading four thousand brothers to attack rashly, the available strength in the fortress is already somewhat insufficient, and it is better now, but what if Gud'Archie secretly increases his troops? How's that to be?
"Goodearchie could have 12,000 men under his command, but this time he only brought more than 4,000 men and horses, what if he increased his troops in private?"
Zeng Qi's little heart was always seven up and eight down, fluttering and beating non-stop, he couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart anymore, and couldn't help but ask.
"Impossible!"
Xia Dehai's rugged face did not have a trace of waves, and he vetoed it categorically:
"The sentinels sent by our army are always staying outside, and if the barbarians really make large-scale moves, we will definitely be notified as soon as possible."
"No matter what, if Tian Junhou rashly attacks, we will be very dangerous here, and we must find a way to let Lord Tian rush back as soon as possible."
Zeng Qi's heart was always uneasy, and he said to Xia Dehai worriedly:
"Xia Qianhu, you send spies out now, find Tian Junhou's army as soon as possible, so that he can rush back, I feel that something big is going to happen here."
Directly opposite the military fort at the Ando Front, the military camp of Gud'archie.
It was late at night, but there was still a bonfire in the camp, and Goodachi looked in good spirits, sitting in the tent, looking at the remaining brother of the family, Goodusaki, and asked softly, "How is it, can you arrive on time tomorrow at noon?" ”
In private, Goodasaki would more often call his chief brother, and when he heard the question, he nodded slightly and said:
"Big brother, please rest assured, we are stationed in Mengkou, I secretly sent another 5,000 people over, and at the same time, I also recruited several nearby tribes, carrying some improvised siege equipment, and all of them will be assembled before noon tomorrow."
A grim smile appeared on Goodarchie's face, and he snorted coldly:
"So I can rest assured, tomorrow morning, we will start to clean up the sentry posts left outside by the defenders of Ando, we will delay the time that the other party knows as much as possible, as long as we wait for our reinforcements to arrive, hmph, the two small Ando military fortresses will be in our pockets."
"Big brother Gao Ming, this time we will let those two-legged sheep pay for their blood debts, and when the day we capture Anhu City, I will slaughter all the peaceful people to sacrifice the heavenly spirits of our people!"
A fierce glint flashed in Gutosaki's eyes, his hands clenched into fists, and the joints of his ten fingers rattled, just because he and the little chief went out and left, his wife and children suffered misfortune.
From that day on, Kotosasaki never had a good night's sleep, as soon as he closed his eyes, he could see his wife and children covered in blood, holding his hand tightly, trying to stay, each time, he used all his strength, but everything was in vain.
Gude Sasaki has been waiting for this day for a long time, this time the little chief has been helped by the great barbarian king of the White Barbarian Tribe, with this 10,000 elites of the White Barbarian Tribe, plus the 2,000 people who survived in the headquarters, he firmly believes that he will be able to avenge his wife, children and clansmen.
