Chapter 253: A Helping Hand
Although she was a little admired for Li Yue who led the wolves directly through the Xianbei army into the county town yesterday, it didn't mean that she could be so unscrupulous.
Xiao Bai didn't talk to this captain who completely misunderstood what he meant, but quickly turned around and went down the city tower, and went directly to the people who were bandaging the wounds of the wounded, everyone saw Li Yue followed by a group of white wolves, and all eyes were focused on Li Yue.
Li Yue didn't have time to pay attention to their surprised and frightened glances at this time, but asked those people, "Do any of you know that there is a place in this county town where they can be let out besides this city gate?" ”
Everyone was stunned, and no one answered, but one of the injured leaders spoke, "There is a small gate in the south of the city, and there are Xianbei troops guarding it outside, but at this time, the main force of the Xianbei army is all attacking here, so you can take a risk." ”
Listening to Li Yue's question, Lin Xiao, who had finished treating the wound with a wounded man, came over and asked worriedly, "What are you going to do?" ”
Li Yue was already sitting on Xiaobai's back, and rushed to the south of the city, leaving only Li Yue's faint voice in the air, "I don't have time to talk about it, I'll go to the south of the city first." ”
Lin Xiao was afraid that Li Yue would do something too risky, so he had already mentioned his light skills, quickly followed, and sat on the back of the last white wolf.
The white wolf paused, smelled the breath of a familiar person behind him, and saw that the team in front of him had already moved forward quickly, and he fell behind, so he accelerated his speed and quickly chased after him.
Soon the white wolves disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only a stunned crowd.
The speed of the wolves was too fast, Li Yue felt that it was only half an hour at most, and he had already arrived in the south of the city, looking at the place where there was light on the side of the city wall in the south of the city, Li Yue motioned to Xiaobai to go directly.
"Who?" The guard over there, when he found someone, opened his mouth vigilantly, just in the blink of an eye, and he didn't need to see clearly, there were two people and a group of wolves in front of him.
Li Yue took out the token in his hand without being verbose, and those soldier guards saw the token in Li Yue's hand and were about to salute "See your lord", but Li Yue was one step ahead of them and asked, "What's the situation outside this door?" ”
One of the leaders replied, "Your Excellency, there are Xianbei soldiers guarding outside. ”
"How many?"
"Not much, for most of them went to the gates of the city."
"Can you see what's going on outside?"
The leader pointed to a nearby tower and said, "You can see the outside from there." ”
Before the leading soldier finished speaking, Li Yue quickly went to the side of the tower, Lin Xiao on the side looked at the tower and then looked at Li Yue, flew over directly, hugged Li Yue's waist, toe a little, and jumped directly and quickly to the tower, the toes kept pointing on the wooden stakes or wooden platforms stretched out from the tower, and jumped up with the help of strength, and in the blink of an eye, they had reached the top of the tower.
Li Yue stood at the top of the tower, looking at the darkness outside, only a few fires, took out the binoculars in his arms, and looked carefully, and found that there was a campfire not far away in the distance, and there were Xianbei soldiers patrolling in twos and threes.
Li Yue muttered to herself, "I can only take the risk and give it a try." ”
Lin Xiao frowned and asked, "What risk are you going to take?" ”
Li Yue responded, "It's not that I'm going to take a risk this time, it's Xiaobai who wants to take an adventure, there's not much time left, you hurry up and take me down." ”
Lin Xiao put his arm around Li Yue's waist again and jumped off the tower, Li Yue went over to Xiao Bai's side and said softly, "It's up to you this time, rush out, summon your wolf pack companions, and then go to the gate of the city over there to help." ”
Li Yue said to Xiaobai, while constantly pointing out the direction to Xiaobai, after speaking, Li Yue touched Xiaobai's head again, "Be careful." ”
Xiaobai seemed to understand Li Yue's words, and whined twice, rubbing on Li Yue's waist.
Li Yue turned her head and said to the leader, "Open the small door and let them go." ”
The leader came back to his senses a little, did not dare to slack off, hurriedly beckoned his men, and opened the small iron door.
Li Yue touched Xiaobai's head again and said, "Go ahead, I'll wait for you on the city tower." ”
Xiao Bai rubbed on Li Yue's waist, whimpered, and quickly took the white wolves out of the small iron gate and disappeared into the night, the small iron gate was closed, and the white wolves left Linzi County silently.
Li Yue turned to Lin Xiao on the side and said, "I don't know if we can succeed, if we can't succeed, we have to risk breaking into the enemy camp, let's go, go to the city gate and wait." ”
"Congratulations, sir."
Li Yue and Lin Xiao went back to the city gate, everyone saw that the group of white monsters that had been following Li Yue was gone, they were all curious about where they went, but they didn't dare to ask more, and most of the people looked at Li Yue with a look of fear.
Li Yue saw the expressions of those people, and explained, "Don't be afraid, everyone, those are the wolves I raised when I lived on Daliang Mountain, and they won't attack everyone casually." ”
After speaking, regardless of the surprise on everyone's faces, he went directly to the city tower, Lin Xiao looked at the many more wounded, so he didn't follow, and called Li Yue, "Be careful yourself." After that, he stayed here and began to treat the wounded soldiers.
Li Yue climbed up the city tower, and as soon as she went up, she was discovered by the captain who guarded the city, and the captain who guarded the city stopped Li Yue, who wanted to go forward, frowned and said, "If you want to see, just stand here and watch, don't go outside, there is a rain of arrows from Xianbei archers outside, huh?" What about the wolves behind you? ”
Li Yue looked outside the city and responded, "Let them out." ”
At this time, the soldiers on the periphery shouted loudly, "My lord, their siege engines are coming again." ”
The lieutenant didn't have time to deal with Li Yue anymore, so he quickly went to the edge of the city tower.
Li Yue looked left and right, picked up a prototype small shield from the corner of his eye, took it in his hand and went to the periphery of the city gate, Li Yue blended in among those soldiers, but no one found it at this time.
At this time, under the city tower, there were already corpses all over the field, and the corpses of those Xianbei soldiers, mixed with the corpses of the Yanxi army who fell from this city tower, were scattered under the city tower.
Because of the offensive of the Yanxi army's oil barrels, many Xianbei troops below burned, rolling and howling under the city tower, and many corpses were also burned.
But no one in the Xianbei army has time to take care of those, the Xianbei army carries the siege ladder, and keeps pouring down the city tower, and the Xianbei archers behind keep shooting arrows at the city tower, and the Yanxi army on the city tower is replaced by the arrow, and continues to hold the attack of the Xianbei siege soldiers under the city tower, and there are many Zhongjian who have not had time to be rescued by their companions, and they have fallen off the city tower and died instantly.
In such a bloody battlefield, even a military doctor like Li Yue, who was accustomed to seeing all kinds of blood, felt uncomfortable tumbling in his stomach, such a battlefield was too cruel.
Holding back the tumbling in his stomach, Li Yue turned his gaze to the one he was facing again, and saw hundreds of people from the Xianbei army pushing a large siege vehicle towards the city gate, and the siege vehicle was actually full of people, holding a small round shield similar to his own in his hand, holding it above his head, and the rain of arrows was blocked by the shields in their hands.
The people who came over pushing the siege vehicles were all helped with shields, and they also blocked the rain of arrows on the city tower, even if they didn't block the arrows and were shot, they would be replaced by the people next to them immediately.
When the captain saw this, he saw that the siege engine had arrived under the city gate, and frowned and said, "Use oil drums." ”
Then the barrel of oil was poured down, and the torches began to be thrown downward, but the shields were able to block the torches every time, and then some men on both sides rushed out to extinguish the torches.
The soldiers on the tower of the city looked at the siege vehicles that were already under the city tower, and anxiously asked the captain, "My lord, what should I do if I can't burn?" ”
Li Yue looked at the situation below, her eyes narrowed slightly, those hot oil had already flowed into the siege vehicle along the shield, as long as she could pass over those shields and ignite the siege vehicle.
Immediately, Li Yue squatted down, took out a few arrows, and said to the captain, "Find me a piece of cotton cloth." ”
The lieutenant heard the shrill voice next to him, turned his head to see Li Yue, and said impatiently, "Why are you still here, get out of the way." ”
Li Yue frowned, and said to the soldier holding the knife next to him, "Borrow your knife and use it." When he spoke, he had already cut off the trouser leg of his cotton pants directly with the knife in his hand, and Li Yue stuffed all the trouser legs and knives into the hands of the soldier who borrowed the knife next to him, "Take it to me." ”
The soldier was stunned for a moment and didn't react, but the captain stared at the short arrows tied to both sides of Li Yue's trouser legs that were cut off.
Li Yue didn't have time to take care of their distraction in a daze, but quickly pulled the cotton in the middle of the cotton pants, wrapped it in a short arrowhead, and then took a knife to directly chisel an oil drum next to it, the arrow stretched out the oil barrel and dipped it, picked it up, rolled up its sleeves and quickly put it on, quickly lit it on the torch inserted in the city wall, and shot it out.
Immediately, the soldiers around the tower burst into cheers, "Burn, burn." It turned out that the rocket in Li Yue's hand was aimed at the gap in the shield in the hands of the Xianbei soldiers below, but an arrow could not have much effect, and those who specialized in putting out the fire took the water-soaked quilt in their hands, and the fire was quickly extinguished.
Li Yue's movements were completed in one go, and it was just a dazzling kung fu between the captain and the soldier.
At this time, the captain and the soldier also came to their senses, the soldier hurriedly dropped the knife in his hand, squatted down and began to help wrap cotton on the arrow, the captain also came quickly, and said to the next few people, "You guys also come to help." ”
Li Yue looked at the Xianbei soldiers who were huddled on both sides of the city tower with a quilt in one hand and a shield in the other, and said to the soldiers who threw oil drums with slightly narrowed eyes, "Have you looked at the people holding quilts on both sides?" Barrels of oil were smashed at them, and the quilt was soaked in oil, and they watched how they put out the fire. ”
