Chapter 139: Singing the First Eighteen Touches Before the Battle

In the face of the opponent's unstoppable attack, the soldiers already had the mind of being restrained. The strength of the other party made them feel desperate, instead of fighting for their lives, it was better to surrender in exchange for a way out, unlike the invasion of foreign enemies, anyway, they are all the kings of Great Chu, and they will not do anything to kill them all.

"Tung oil!" As he struggled to fend off a rain of locust arrows, Noah slashed down the enemy troops who had attacked the walls, turning his head and shouting orders almost hoarsely.

Rather than waiting for the walls to collapse and the city to fall, it is better to make a desperate bet.

Screams drowned out her voice, and the soldiers huddled under the bunkers of the walls, motionless.

Yuan Bao was the first to react, flew and grabbed a jar of tung oil and threw it towards the chariot under the city, making a crisp sound of "pop", and immediately the smell of rushing to the sky came up, waking up the other soldiers who were fighting. One after another, the jars were thrown down, and the sound of cracking continued, and Noah snatched the torches from the soldiers' hands and threw them at the chariot, which immediately set fire to the approaching chariot.

The flames of the sky burst into flames, and tongues of fire quickly swept through everything around them, and the soldiers hidden behind the chariot fell from it screaming, losing their grip. The ploughing cattle were afraid of fire, and the light of the fire in the sky caused them to suddenly fall into confusion, and they trampled in all directions in anger and horror. There was chaos in the city.

The soldiers were finally relieved, and more and more people got up and threw down the jars one after another, and the fire burned brighter, and the heat hit people.

The Marquis of Zhenyuan finally unwillingly sounded the gong to withdraw his troops, threw away his armor, and fled in embarrassment.

In this battle, both sides were defeated, and each suffered countless casualties.

The North Star retreats, the rising sun rises, and there is a lot of mourning. After another long night, the surviving soldiers were busy cleaning up the battlefield and burying the fallen brothers. Noya inspected all the way, and the more cold she became.

After last night's battle, the city wall suffered extremely serious damage, if the Marquis of Zhenyuan repeats his old tricks, and then uses all kinds of strange chariots, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist, after all, the use of tung oil is a thousand injuries to the enemy, self-damage of eight hundred desperate tricks, can not continue to use, but also need to prevent trouble before it happens.

This stop made her understand that the disparity in strength between the enemy and us has nothing to do with weapons and equipment, but people's hearts. Perseverance is not something that can be cultivated simply by boosting morale, but a willpower that has been tempered and tempered through the baptism of war, the test of blood and fire.

When the soldiers approached the city, they were afraid, feeling that it was a peak and mountain that was difficult to climb, greedy for life and afraid of death, and hated to betray the country to survive. For this kind of cowardly soldier who is like a puddle of mud, Noya also has eleven thousand ways to reshape their backbones, and none of the killers in the Killer Pavilion are afraid of death, in addition to the threat of deboning incense, it also comes from inhuman tempering. However, it is too late now.

Now, in addition to understanding the meaning of integrity and insisting on the determination to overcome everything, they also need to understand that the opponent is not terrible, what is really terrible is their own cowardice without a fight.

Today is the third day, and she is boiling with her fingers, feeling that she has lived like a year. What's more, now that the Marquis of Zhenyuan has seen through her tricks, he knows that he is a strong outsider, and a pastry that can be devoured in one bite will definitely not give him a chance to breathe. Even if it is a painless temptation, the opponent is numerous, and the tactics of the wheels will be unbearable for the soldiers.

The walls were blackened by the fighting. The soldiers were busy clearing the ashes of the straw burning, mechanical and sluggish, exhausted from a night of fighting without risk, not to mention the grief of the death of their brothers and the oppression of the enemy's strength.

As the commander, Noah can have merit, but she can't have it, and her small mistake suddenly made the soldiers whisper and show some dissatisfaction.

Noah stayed up all night, exhausted, but not sleepy. Standing on the city wall, the autumn wind blowing from the north made her heart fluctuate.

Yuan Bao stood behind her, holding two silver-wrapped and gold-mixed steamed buns in his hands, and made a relaxed face: "Eat some, the local unique flavor is no worse than your craftsmanship." ”

Noah took it and took a hard bite, mixed with the taste of tung oil, and chewed hard, but couldn't swallow it. The smell of blood under the walls rose in the sunlight, reminding her of the fight she had fought in the kennel, her chest tumbling and retching as she stretched her neck.

"I'm going to fetch water." Yuan Bao hurriedly said.

"No need." Noah stopped him and patted his stomach helplessly: "The more critical the time, the more squeamish it is." ”

"A woman's family, if she has to come here to do it, she can't swallow the white bread, what kind of hardship can she suffer?"

There were people under the city walls who whispered and sneered, and did not shy away from her, perhaps, it was originally for her.

"I heard that she used to be just a cook, and when this battlefield was a stove, I almost lit myself today."

"It's not easy to see that the dead man didn't scare her legs, what more can we ask for?"

"If the old general was here, I'm afraid he would have driven the army of the Marquis of Zhenyuan out ten miles away."

Yuan Bao was annoyed, turned around and was about to go down to theorize, but was stopped by Noah: "Let them talk about it, I was originally a cook, this is a fact." If the old general was here, it would definitely be different. ”

"Humph! A litter of bear soldiers, the mud can't support the wall, and they are still complaining about others here, giving them a little color to see, letting them know what is the real killing, and they will be honest. ”

Yuan Bao spoke a little loudly, deliberately letting a few people hear it.

Several people were afraid of Noya's identity and didn't dare to talk back, but they all snorted coldly disdainfully, and the left and right were not responsible for the public.

Noya swallowed the steamed bun with difficulty, and said lightly: "What are you doing to kill people alive?" When I think of the tragic scene when I broke into the Valley of Killers alone and killed more than a hundred killers, with rivers of blood and corpses everywhere, I couldn't help but want to vomit. ”

Noya is somewhat exaggerated, but it is not a good thing to be looked down upon by his own soldiers and disturb the morale of the army, and it is necessary to scare and scare them.

Sure enough, there was no sound for a long time, and no one answered.

"When the war is over, I will discuss with the emperor and disperse the people of the Killer Pavilion to all parts of Dachu, so that the soldiers of Dachu will always be prepared for danger in times of peace, and all of them will receive the cruel training of the Killer Pavilion. Let them fight against the wolves who have been hungry for a winter to survive, cut off their rotten wounds under the sharp claws of persevering goshawks and vultures, struggle to escape, and let them try inhuman cruel tempering, they will not complain about the heavens and others, and practice a body of steel and iron bones. ”

There was silence under the walls, as if it had dispersed.

Noya took a big bite of the steamed bun and said to herself, "What about the cook? If it is a threat, it will be quite scary. If the flour is abundant, I will blow him up like a ghost and cry wolf. Uh, to be honest, this steamed bun smells of tung oil, it's really unpalatable. ”

Yuan Bao nodded: "This place is rich in tung oil and lime powder, and tung oil is used for cooking and lighting fires in the barracks in order to save energy." ”

Noah turned around, her eyes shining: "Don't say it earlier, take me to see it." ”

With that smile, Yuan Bao instantly had a bottom in his heart.

The Marquis of Zhenyuan was frustrated, and his heart was indignant, especially when Nuoya actually resorted to such shameful methods as lime powder and tung oil, which caught him off guard. After a brief rest, in the afternoon he regained his strength and marched towards the city gate again.

Fighting during the day, the soldiers on the city wall saw each other clearly, seeing the enemy's soldiers and horses, not to mention 20,000 people, this is not pouring out, and then thinking about the only thousands of soldiers defending the city, their hearts suddenly lost their confidence, and the hands with guns couldn't help but tremble.

"Stone thrower!" A soldier pointed in surprise to a row of chariots in the middle of the army.

Everyone knows the power of the stone-throwing car, which can be launched remotely and has huge lethality. This discovery immediately caused a commotion on the city wall.

Noya stood on the wall, still wearing the same wide robe, covering the slightly bulging lower abdomen, lining the weakness of the body.

She turned her head to face the panicked soldiers, slowly pursed her lips and smiled indifferently: "What are you afraid of?" What they rely on is just a few broken cars, but what you rely on is the Great Chu Imperial Court! We have thousands of people and strong soldiers, and that is our strong backing. When we roar, we can shake the three mountains and five mountains and change the color of the heavens and the earth. And they are burdened with the infamy of rebellion, and they are the ones who are afraid of it! This is just a strong outsider! ”

The soldiers' hands tightened in grips on their guns, and their breathing quickened. The horror was still raging among them, and sooner or later it would be infinitely amplified and overwhelmed by emotions.

Noah is still smiling, calm and fearless, that smile is as leisurely as the white clouds in the sky, gentle and soft, making people feel the breeze blowing on their faces, which can reduce the fatigue and tension of the body.

She simply turned around, faced the soldiers, and said to Yuanbao: "Yuanbao, can you sing?" The most unfortunate country tune, nursery rhymes are also in the middle. ”

Yuan Bao said with a hippie smile: "I followed the master, and I only learned eighteen touches." ”

The soldiers all know that Bailijiu likes to visit the Qinglou, and when they heard Yuan Bao ruthlessly expose their master's old background, the corners of someone's lips couldn't help grinning, which was more ugly than crying.

Noya saw it in his eyes and whistled at the ingot: "Then eighteen touches!" ”

The soldiers looked sideways, and once again and again, they were sure that this general of theirs was not a woman.

Yuan Bao cleared his throat, and really sang in a strange tone with his voice: "Shi Na babbling hands, touching that babbling sister, touching the head of the sister, Ao Na oh ......"

Noya stretched out his tail finger and plucked his ears, frowning and smiling disdainfully: "What is this singing, it is like a donkey calling, and the people like flower branches have also scared the benefactor away." ”

Finally someone snickered.

"Hey, do you know? Sing along! ”

Noya sang loudly first, and then Zhanqing, which was also weird and unpleasant. Someone first whispered and hummed, and then also tore out their voices. The atmosphere infected the soldiers who were so nervous that they were stretched into a bowstring, and the sound gradually rose and rolled out, wave after wave, surging and tumbling out.
