Chapter 110: Analysis
Bang! Bang! Bang! ~~~
The dull sound of footsteps came from afar, and although it was chaotic, when combined, it was like a war drum, which made people tremble.
The earth was trembling, and even standing on top of the city walls, I could feel the heavy walls under my feet as if they were trembling slightly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!! ~~~
On the high city tower, a dull and passionate war drum suddenly sounded, and the sound was like thunder, resounding in the sky.
"Enemy attack! Alert!!! ~~" The herald's shouts resounded in the sky over the entire county, one after another, all the soldiers defending the city subconsciously clenched the blades in their hands at this moment, and looked nervous and solemn at the enemy army in front of them, who were like a long dragon, densely striding forward.
On the city wall, there have long been piles of all kinds of materials to defend the city, radium wood, rolling stones, fire oil, gold juice, etc., but next to hundreds of trebuchets, in addition to some stones, there are also dozens of packages of explosives, each package of explosives is enough to be about the size of a stone grinding plate, in addition to black powder, there are also placed countless iron nails, iron shards, is a terrifying killing weapon.
Li Chengming was also standing on top of the city tower at this time, looking at the enemy army in front of him that stretched for dozens of miles and was as dense as ants, and he couldn't help but feel nervous subconsciously.
The so-called people are tens of thousands, boundless, this time Wei Chigong and the eldest grandson Wuji led tens of thousands of troops to come, plus the people who transported grain and grass, the number of people can stop at 50,000, I am afraid that there are 60,000 or 70,000, so that a large group of soldiers walked by, even the official road paved with bluestone bricks can be trampled on, and the surrounding rivers may also be drunk and cut off, which is really terrifying.
Tens of thousands of people were raised in the sky with a thin gray mist, of course, this could not be a real fog, but dust fluttering, a lot of dust, when the wind blows, it looks like fog.
When Li Chengming didn't come to this world, he was just an ordinary person, where could he have seen such a huge war scene, when he saw it, if he didn't feel a little nervous, then no one believed it.
However, after only being a little nervous for a while, Li Chengming regained his composure, and even faintly became a little excited.
This time, if he can defeat the eldest grandson Wuji and Wei Chigong, then these soldiers in front of him will also become his own subordinates.
With these people, then he will compete for the world, and he will have the basics.
"Your Highness, the battle array is dangerous, the sword and arrow have no eyes, please ask Your Highness to temporarily go down to the city tower, so as not to be hurt by anything, then it will really be a dead end!" Xue Wanche, who was standing half a step behind Li Chengming, saw Li Chengming go up to the city tower and looked at the army coming from afar, his body seemed to tense for a moment, thinking that Li Chengming was afraid, so he stepped forward and said in a low voice.
Li Chengming shook his head and said lightly, "No need, this king is fine!" ”
Seeing Xue Wanche's face worried, and he wanted to say something, he spoke again, "Don't worry, if it's dangerous, this king will leave, with the strength of this king, if this king wants to leave, no one can stop this king!" ”
Hearing Li Chengming say this, Xue Wanche thought for a while, and thought of the magic of His Royal Highness the county king in front of him, so he didn't say more, nodded slightly, and retreated, standing behind him with half a step and pursed his lips to look at the enemy army surging like a tide in front of him.
"Pass the order, the archers are on guard at any time, and the trebuchet is wound up and the thunder is placed!" After seeing that the enemy army was less than five miles away, Xue Wanche opened his mouth and shouted to the herald behind him.
Hearing Xue Wanche's order, the herald immediately went out, and then the soldiers on the entire city wall suddenly began to move like sophisticated machines.
The air was filled with the smell of slaughter, which made the adrenal hormones of all the soldiers defending the city faster, and the heart was even more tense as if it was jumping out of the throat.
As time passed, the army led by Changsun Wuji and Wei Chigong finally came outside Huixian, and all of them stopped about three miles outside Huixian.
The dense figures stopped outside the county seat, and the difference in number was more than ten times, which made the soldiers guarding the city numb one by one.
With so many enemy troops, it is really difficult for them to imagine how to fight such a battle, even if they are just defending the city, but the county town is only about five meters high, I am afraid that the enemy army outside only needs to attack the city with all their strength, then they will not be able to defend it.
However, even so, they did not run away, but remained firm in their positions, holding their spears and knives tightly in their hands.
Of course, this is not how loyal they are, but there is military law in the army, but in the big war, there is the existence of the warlord, if you dare to run without permission, all of them will be killed.
And if you continue to stay, even if you fight the enemy army, you will not necessarily die in battle, and if you are lucky enough to kill one or two enemy soldiers, there will be a rich reward.
In these days, who didn't join the army just to eat a mouthful of food?
I don't even have to eat, what is the difference between living and dead, it's better to come to the battlefield to fight, if you die, you will die, if you hit the luck, then you can also pay homage to the general, marry a beautiful girl, and go to the peak of life from then on.
Regardless of what the soldiers defending the city thought, the large army outside the county town had already begun to be stationed, and tens of thousands of people began to clear the surroundings like locusts, and then lined up and camped.
"Xue Wanche, do you guess that Wei Chigong will attack the city today?" Looking at the dense flags outside, people shouting and neighing, as if countless ants were moving, Li Chengming's face remained unchanged, and he asked lightly towards Xue Wanche beside him.
Xue Wanche looked at the ranks of the army outside with a solemn expression, and found that the soldiers and horses led by Wei Chi Gong this time were not as many as he imagined, but he was slightly relieved in his heart, and after hearing Li Chengming's words, he muttered and said, "Your Highness, if it was the original, the last general guessed that Wei Chi Gong would not attack the city immediately, after all, the enemy army is tired, and if the city is attacked at this time, it is a big taboo." However, Wei Chigong is arrogant and conceited, and at this time he is afraid that he is eager for revenge, if he insists on attacking the city, the eldest grandson Wuji is just a civil official, I am afraid that he will not be able to suppress him. ”
"Yes, this king thinks so too, let the soldiers defending the city be careful." Listening to Xue Wanche's analysis, Li Chengming bowed his head slightly in agreement.
Indeed, Wei Chigong was able to make a hasty march regardless of the fatigue of the soldiers, so what about ordering the siege of the city in spite of the fatigue of the soldiers in order to take revenge?
Hatred can blind anyone's heart.
It's a pity that he doesn't have enough troops in his hands, if he has enough troops, even if he has 20,000 people, he should have a good chance of winning if he goes out of the city directly to kill for a while.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Xue Wanche clenched his fists and saluted, and then asked the herald behind him to go out to give orders.
And at this moment, I saw a group of men and horses rushing out of the army formation three miles away, these people wearing armor, riding war horses, carrying bows and arrows, and holding various weapons in their hands, rushed towards the gate of Huixian like a torrent......
