Chapter 140: Shooting the Tiger (200 Monthly Pass Plus Update)

After Li You bent the bow, more than 100 Tang soldiers opened their bows and arrows on the city wall, and shot hundreds of arrows; After experiencing the initial panic, the attacking rebel soldiers were surprised to find that none of the arrows fired by these Tang soldiers had arrows, except for a few unlucky guys who were shot and suffered a small injury to their exposed skin, the others were blocked by armor helmets.

"General Yin, these are the arrows fired by the Tang army, all of them are cut from bamboo and wood, and none of them have arrows, it seems that now the arrows in the Tang army are extinct, and our army's victory is in sight." The Xi general happily returned to Yin Ziqi with a bunch of wooden sticks and bamboo branches and said, "Please also ask the general to immediately order the whole army to attack the city." ā€

"Oh?" Yin Ziqi took the wooden sticks and bamboo branches he handed over and looked at them carefully, and paint, wall ash and other things could still be seen on these wooden sticks and bamboo branches, and at a glance, he knew that they were found after demolishing the house.

"Huh." Yin Ziqi chuckled twice, threw these things to the ground, and looked coldly at the city wall in the distance, "The arrows in the city are exhausted, even if the Tang army has reinforcements and food, it is not of much use." ā€

Indeed, without the long-range suppression of arrows, more than 100,000 troops rushed up, how could these Tang soldiers still be able to stop it? And since the demolition of the house has begun, there are not many rolling wood stones left in the city, right? Yin Ziqi vaguely saw the dawn of capturing Suiyang and marching into Jianghuai.

Jianghuai is the land of wealth of the Tang Dynasty, rich in products, rich in people, and can become the foundation of their own hegemony in the world! Yin Ziqi's mind is like electricity, now that An Qingxu killed An Lushan, the generals of Dayan are all panicked, Shi Siming's father and son have already made a move, if they can master Jianghuai, they may not be able to achieve a career in this troubled world. Yin Ziqi's long-suppressed ambition suddenly swelled.

"Pogu, you bring 10,000 men to attack this gate, if you can't take it, bring your head to see it." Yin Ziqi issued an order to the general in front of him, although he had reached such a situation now, he still refused to put himself in danger, and still watched from a distance above the watchtower as Po Gu led the army to kill the city gate.

Xi people were originally a branch of the Xianbei Yuwen clan, living between the weak Luoshui (now Xilamulun Henan, Inner Mongolia) and Tuhu Zhenshui (now Laoha River, Inner Mongolia), and their lives were extremely hard; In the twenty-second year of Zhenguan, the Xi chief can lead the people to attach, Tang Taizong placed the Rao Le Du Governor's Mansion in his place, and set up five states in Xi Wubu, and the Rao Le Du Governor's Mansion was governed by the Yingzhou Dongyi Du Protectorate.

Li Longji, who had just been seized the throne by his son, married his niece Princess Gu'an to Chief Xi Li Dayu forty years ago, which can be described as a special favor, and Po Gu was only able to join the Tang Army after this, and came to the Three Towns Festival to serve under An Lushan; At this time, An Lushan's subordinates were full of soldiers from various barbarian tribes, and when they had nothing to do, they often talked about the deeds of their ancestors in the Wuhu Chaohua, and they longed for it, but they didn't expect that now they also had the opportunity to reproduce the past of their ancestors, so he fought with great effort, and he didn't want to wantonly kill and plunder these Han people all the time.

Therefore, as soon as he heard Yin Ziqi's order, Po Gu tangled up 10,000 soldiers and horses to attack Suiyang City like hungry wolves, "They have no arrows, rush up with me, and the first to climb the city will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, and the women in the city will take it." ā€

The attraction of the silver and the woman encouraged these bloodthirsty barbarians to rush forward desperately, and they raised their shields high above their heads, but they still did not hear the sound of bows and arrows firing until the moat, so they became more and more bold, and together they set up the ladder to the head of Suiyang City, bit the knife in their mouths, and rushed upwards with a pair of fierce eyes.

"Ahh Hearing only a scream, the defenders of the city lifted a big stone and smashed it down the ladder, and several warriors of the Xi tribe were smashed down the ladder by the big stone, fell down the city, and looked like they could not live.

But this did not deter these barbarians, now it is much easier than a few days ago, countless cloud ladders have been set up on the dilapidated walls of Suiyang City, those rebels from the Xi people, Tongluo, Turkic and other tribes crawled towards the city like ants, as long as this city is breached, they can enter the rich Jianghuai and plunder, when they think of the rich city, flower-like women, their adrenal hormones can accelerate the secretion, and the speed of climbing the cloud ladder is getting faster and faster.

"Okay, Po Gu did a good job." Yin Ziqi on the watchtower couldn't help but grasp the railing and leaned forward, but it was still far away from the city wall, and he couldn't see the details ahead, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious for a while.

"Go, follow me downstairs to the front." Yin Ziqi didn't resist the temptation after all, now that the Tang army in Suiyang has run out of arrows, as long as he doesn't go to the city, what can they do to me?

Yin Ziqi got off the watchtower, turned over his horse, approached the battlefield with his personal entourage, and came to a hill a hundred steps away from Suiyang City, he stretched his neck and looked at it from afar, and the soldiers behind him hurriedly moved umbrellas to shield him from the sun.

"Okay." Seeing a soldier from the Turks climbing up to the top of the city, Yin Ziqi smiled, but unfortunately he was crushed by a sledgehammer before he could stand firmly, and he fell off the city wall without saying a word, and smashed down several rebels on the ladder by the way, which made Yin Ziqi feel extremely sorry.

However, if the war continues like this, it will be a matter of time before Suiyang City is breached, and how many soldiers and horses does Zhang Xun's men have? Even if it is five for one, those defenders in Suiyang City will be exhausted by the rebels sooner or later, and Yin Ziqi seems to have seen the dawn of victory at this time.

"Let's go, go a little further." Now he felt that this place was not advanced enough, and the Tang army on the city wall had several flaws that he had not grasped, which made him feel the need to go to the front line and personally command the army.

"General, the battle ahead is dangerous, don't put yourself in danger." Someone next to him persuaded.

"Haha, the Tang Army has no arrows, what are you afraid of?" Yin Ziqi laughed loudly, and immediately urged the horses forward, and the soldiers behind him hurriedly followed with umbrella covers, and this scene also fell into the eyes of Tang Jun on the city wall.

After walking another twenty or so steps, Yin Ziqi slowed down his horse, and he opened his mouth wide to point to a certain gap in the city wall, and was about to summon reinforcements to attack here.

At this moment, a tall general stood above the city, and I saw him raise his carved bow with a loud shout, and pull it away like a full moon, only to hear a thunderbolt, and the feather arrows flew towards Yin Ziqi like lightning.

"The thief will Yin Ziqi, take your life!" It was only then that his shout reached Yin Ziqi's ears. (To be continued.) )
