Chapter 471: Get Ready
When they rushed up to the city wall, they found that outside the Heavenly City, there was already a black oppressive group of upright dynasty people, at least 50,000 people. In addition to the original remaining siege equipment, there are many upright dynasty soldiers carrying ladders, each ladder is more than ten zhang long, to more than a dozen soldiers to carry, I think it is made temporarily, for siege ladders.
At the front of the queue of the soldiers, there were large large shields, which seemed to be more than a foot high, covering the things behind the shields, so that people did not know what was behind them.
Meng Huan Chilong glanced at the city wall, and found that the small ecstasy array that had been said to be only half arranged, that is, the left side of the city tower, the obstacles made of sandbags, stones, and wood could cover the guards and prevent the arrows of the dynasty from being corrected, but the effect of the ecstasy array seemed to be none, because the entire array had not yet been arranged.
He saw Long Qifeng and Teng Xinzun, who were standing in front of the city tower and pointing, so he ran over.
Long Qishui heard the footsteps, turned his head and saw the red dragon, so he said, "Red dragon, it's just in time, do you guess what is hidden behind the shield?"
In fact, seeing this scene, he was still a little angry, now that the soldiers are pressing, these people do not return to their positions, and command the soldiers to deal with it, but stand here and guess what is behind the shields of others, even if they guess it, it is just a means to deal with it, but the battle still can't be avoided.
He glanced at it. "It's supposed to be something that crosses the moat, the trench and bridge cart brought in the morning is basically destroyed, that thing is very delicate, it is impossible to make it so quickly, but I don't know what will be used as a bridge. ”
After finishing speaking, he looked at the few people in front of him and said, "I am the combat commander, and now you have to obey the command." Who is in charge of the little ecstasy array? Hurry up and continue, as much as you can arrange. Where's the poison ready? And where are the drummers? I need to know that the soldiers are all ready for battle. Teng joins the army and Long joins the army, please return to your position as soon as possible and organize your soldiers to prepare for battle. ”
As soon as Teng Xinzun and Long Qishui heard this, they lowered their heads, perhaps because of the battle in the morning, they held the city wall, and their hearts were a little relaxed. The people of the Righteous Dynasty have already pressed up, but they have not yet acted.
After Teng Xinzun heard it, he turned around and left, and Long Qishui seemed to have to explain, but Meng Winding Chilong didn't give them a chance to speak, but shouted sternly: "Teng Xinzun and Long Qishui listen to the order, return to your position, organize your people, and prepare for battle." If there are redundant soldiers, cooperate with the spirit witch and continue to arrange the small ecstasy array. When he said this, his face was expressionless, and even his voice was much colder.
Liao Shusheng and his people had already rushed to the front of the city tower, arranging manpower to prepare for battle. Shield-bearers and archers lined up, and behind each crossbow there was a combo of the group. It made the whole people's army not seem to be flustered at all, but showed good military qualities, and seemed to be more like a soldier than the city guard.
Long Qishui was going to say something, but when he saw this situation, he also turned around and left.
When Meng Huan Chilong's gaze looked at the rest of the people, the counselor of the city guard stood up. "My lord, I have already checked, the city guard mansion originally had ten catties of various poisons, and after receiving the order, I collected about ten catties in the major chambers of commerce, and just now I made about ten catties, a total of thirty catties. All of them are drugs that can be poisoned when they get on the skin, and you may pay attention to the direction of the wind when using them, and you should put them in a special person when you use them. ”
He thought for a moment and said, "I don't know much about the poison, so you still organize people to drop it, but you have to listen to my instructions, and then you can release it according to the direction of the wind." It is best to put two or two portions in a bottle and throw it into the enemy group. In addition, tell the spirit witch to continue to do it, the more the better, and it is best to poison the amount of 200,000 people. ”
The old counselor saluted, which was equivalent to receiving the order.
He glanced at the crowd and asked, "Who's okay?"
I saw the fat leader in charge of the military quartermaster, looked left and right, and then stood up and said: "My lord, I am responsible for the materials for arranging the formation, but now the materials are gone, so only half of them are distributed." And I've ......"
As soon as Meng Huan Chilong heard this, he came to the fire, and just now he asked the soldiers to set up the formation, but now the fat man said that there was no material. So he didn't listen to the words behind him, but looked at the city guard Long Qifeng.
"Castle Keeper, do you know about this?"
Long Qifeng hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know, maybe I know when I join the army!"
He looked at the fat man with a gloomy face. "You treat me as an idiot, or do you think you are an idiot to join the army. Just now I ordered them to set up a small ecstasy array as soon as possible, and when they joined the army, they took the order without thinking about it, do you think he knows?"
When the fat man heard this, his face turned white, and his eyes quickly looked at Long Qifeng.
Meng Huan Chilong stared at him and said slowly: "I am the commander before the formation, and I arranged the affairs of the Little Ecstasy Array. You don't have the materials, you don't report to me, you don't want to find a way to collect them, you've already delayed the fighter. Someone, dragged out and cut down. ”
When the tiger heard this, he called two soldiers to come in and take the fat man out. The fat man softened when he saw it, looked at Long Qifeng and shouted: "Lord City Guard, save me, I have actually asked someone to collect materials outside the city, and I didn't report it in time, I was also busy and dizzy, this crime should not be killed!"
Before Long Qifeng could speak, Meng Huan Chilong said coldly: "Lord City Guard, my temporary command is determined by you, no matter who you are now, as long as you want to destroy my Heavenly City, you should kill it." The Little Ecstasy Array was discussed by everyone, and he was also present, knowing the role of the Little Ecstasy Array in defending the city, but he actually acted like this, do you think he should be killed?"
Long Qifeng hesitated a little and said: "You said that every soldier is precious now, I didn't punish Teng for joining the army, this time you see if you can give him a chance." ”
At this time, Teng Xinzun happened to rush back again. "Commander, that little Ecstasy ......" He stopped at this point, for his face turned blue when he heard the words of the castle guard.
Meng Huan Chilong glanced at the city guard and knew that this fat man should be a member of the Long family, so the city guard wanted to protect him. "Yes, I was the one who enlisted Teng in the army, and it turns out that I was right, at least people can work against King Shura, and how many soldiers can be saved. So may I ask, what will you do, can you stop King Shura?"
The chubby leader was stunned for a moment, and said, "Although I don't have the combat strength to join the army, I can do a lot of other things, and I can contribute to Yitian City." ”
Meng Winding Red Dragon nodded and asked, "What's your name?"
"My lord, my name is Huang Keqin. ”
"Huang Keqin, Lord City Guard has opened his mouth, I can't help but give face, now I'll give you a chance. You mobilized your people, ripped off all the houses in front of the city gate, and asked the soldiers to move them up to make materials, this little ecstasy array is the key to defending the city, even if the fight starts, you can't stop, can you do it?"
Long Qifeng didn't expect that he would pick up people's houses before he fought, and immediately said: "This is not very good!"
"What's the bad thing, if there is no small maze array, the people of the upright dynasty may attack the city quickly, what is the use of asking for a house at that time? The house in front of the city gate is picked up, just to put a trebuchet for me, and those stones can also kill people outside. Huang Keqin, if you can't take it, can you take it? ”
Huang Keqin didn't know if it was because the city guards were all stabbed, or if he really had the courage, so he shouted: "Take it, I can't finish it! Whoever dares to stop it, I will cut him." With that, he rushed out.
Meng Huan Chilong turned around and glanced at Teng Xinzun, Teng Xinzun didn't speak, and followed. You must know that he is anxious! There is no cover of the small ecstasy array on his side, and the casualties will definitely be greater than in the other two places.
Meng Huan Chilong asked again: "Who is responsible for the city guards, how many *** have you done, and all of them will be distributed to me." ”
But no one around agreed to this, it may be that Long Qishui is responsible for himself, and such a big matter has not been explained, it can be seen that this dragon is still flustered when he joins the army.
At this time, there was a horn sound from the direction of the camp of the upright dynasty, and a thin and bald head walking in the front suddenly raised a golden flag. The entire Duan Zheng Dynasty rushed up, only to hear the sound of neat footsteps, resounding outside the Heavenly City, and occasionally one or two shouts of the leaders of the Duan Zheng Dynasty.
Meng Huan Chilong walked out of the castle tower and saw a drummer already standing in front of the drum, looking at him.
He waved his hand lightly and said, "Call the dragon to join the army, distribute the *** to the brothers, and then call the archers, and the spirit witch to prepare, and the shield hand to cover." The drums in the tower also sounded, and the warriors on the city wall moved one after another.
Long Qishui's voice roared. "Brothers, bow and arrow, crossbow and spear, get ready. Kill me hard, kill a lot of reward, you can marry a wife with the reward money, is there a man who doesn't want a wife?"
"Nope. Some of the soldiers shouted and laughed.
Meng Winding Chilong's small eyes narrowed, and he suddenly turned around and asked Liao Wenhong. "General, how are we preparing for the wooden flute?"
Liao Wenhong was a little embarrassed and said, "I was going to talk about the wooden flute, but then somehow I turned to the camp owner's business." ”
Facing the battlefield, Meng Huan Chilong seemed to be a different person, and said with a cold face: "Don't talk nonsense, what is the situation?"
When Liao Wenhong heard this, he straightened up. "Yes, I have set a contact signal with Lei Suyu, as well as the two battalion masters of Man Pengwei and Man Yonggang, and I have already told the battalion owner and the lieutenant that each battalion has a liaison person, and Lei Suyu is in charge of your side. ”
Meng Huan Chilong nodded, looked at the civilian soldiers in front of him, and said, "Everyone listen, take cover first, protect yourself, and wait until you hear the drums before acting." Come to me, Lei Suyu, and then play the wooden flute to direct the battle. ”
The wooden flute of the Wu nationality is used by hunters in the mountains and forests, and they dig a few holes in wood, or bamboo, to count it as a wooden flute. The sound of the wooden flute is relatively sharp, it can travel farther in the mountains and forests, and it is easy to carry. The most important thing is that the wooden flute can imitate the sounds of beasts or birds in the mountains and forests, so hunters in the mountains and forests like to use the wooden flute to communicate.
Lei Suyu has been in charge of the wooden flute since that day, and he has worked it, because he is not a mountain hunter and has never played this thing. Now that he can blow out movement, he is still taught by the mountain tigers. After hearing the shout of the red dragon, he ran over with some excitement.
"Lei Suyu, follow me, don't go there, I can only move if you move, when you hear my order, blow it vigorously, so that the people of the People's Army can hear it, know what we are going to do, understand? Again, you can't leave my side. ”
What he emphasized, Lei Suyu just nodded seriously, but his eyes flashed with excitement.
