Chapter 422: Frequent Situations
Biqu Pavilion ., the fastest update of the latest chapter of Chengtian!
Under the order of Lieutenant Tong, all the people holding this strange weapon waved it.
I saw this extraordinarily peculiar bamboo pole and wooden pole, clinging to the wall and slashing back and forth, where the scimitar passed, the shrimp soldiers and crabs would be knocked out of the city.
Some guards with good eyesight, great strength, and slightly superior martial arts will use a scimitar to slide through the wall and break the crab general's belly, taking the crab general's life.
Such a novel attack method for everyone was still thought up by Zhang Qianjian and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince together, specifically to deal with these monsters, after all, they were fighting with people before, and they only needed to pour boiling hot oil down, or push the ladder down with their hands.
Only such a weapon can cause a little damage to these monsters.
Other ways can't actually kill these monsters.
Even if you fall from the city wall more than 20 feet high, it is impossible to kill these monsters, but it is just dizzy for a while and difficult to climb up again.
After these monsters cheered up, they would climb up the city wall again, and the cycle went on and on, thinking that as long as those tall prawn soldiers did not give the order to retreat, these monsters did not know what to stop, as if they were really tireless.
And when the guards get tired, naturally someone behind them will immediately come forward to make up for it.
This was the case, which had been stalemate in front of the city for a day, and when night came again, the inexplicable and unpleasant sound was heard again, and the monster legions withdrew like a low tide, and rested in a position of half a mile as they had done last night.
Today, for a whole day, none of these monsters rushed to the head of the city, but this did not make Zhang Xianling and Tong Xianwei and others on the city wall optimistic.
Because today is only the second day, although none of the monsters climbed to the top of the city, but at the same time they did not do much damage to these monsters, and as time passed, they knew that these monsters would climb up to the top of the city sooner or later.
Although he had the experience of last night, Zhang Qianjian still didn't dare to let everyone rest tonight, leaving only a few people to star, after all, I don't know if the situation last night was a coincidence.
"Lieutenant Tong, order more than half of the guards to sleep well tonight, so that they can continue to defend the city tomorrow. Zhang Qianjian thought about it again and again, thought of such an order, and commanded to the county lieutenant Tong.
He didn't dare to let everyone go to sleep tonight, but he couldn't rest well last night, and today he has experienced another day of fighting, and if it drags on like this, there will inevitably be problems, so he chooses to let half of them rest well.
"Half left?" said Lieutenant Tong in confusion?
"The remaining half will continue yesterday's order, and let's take turns keeping vigil. Zhang Qianjian thought about it and said slowly.
"Yes!" Lieutenant Tong replied solemnly and ordered to go down.
The war in Yulin County, a tug-of-war like this lasted for a whole day, and there was enough lotus oil for a sea of fire.
Three, five, and seven days have passed, and although there have been no casualties among the soldiers in Yulin County, a large number of soldiers have been physically exhausted, after all, it is a man and not a machine.
And during this period, those monsters must have evacuated and rested every night, obviously sleeping very well, much better than the Yulin guards to recuperate, Zhang Qianjian, who has always been cautious, only ordered everyone to rest at night on the eighth day, but left a few people to stare at the monster army in front.
At night, hearing this exciting news from the mouth of the county lieutenant Tong, the guards let out a long sigh of relief.
But he was still wearing armor and holding weapons, and he fell asleep on the city wall, and it was about to enter winter, and the cool breeze of the night was like a knife, and the cold air hit people.
Zhang Xianling and His Royal Highness the Prince, who were patrolling back and forth at the head of the city, looked at such a scene and sighed in a low voice: "If this continues, our people will not be iron-clad, and I am afraid that more and more people will fall ill." ”
In such a situation, Zhang Xianling didn't know how to let the soldiers take off their armor at night and rest and sleep completely peacefully, which he would never dare to be cautious.
As long as there is a case, these monsters either on a whim or something, choose to attack the city at night, and the people who have taken off their armor when they fall asleep will inevitably have no time to resist, and the people who are attacked on the city, and the people who do not wear armor are almost one-sided slaughter.
Therefore, Zhang Qianjian didn't dare to bet, as long as he lost, he would lose everything, and he would lose all the games if he made a mistake, and the whole army would be wiped out.
And the situation that Zhang Qianjian was worried about, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally understood, he clearly knew what Zhang Qianjian was thinking in his heart, and then said: "But if it continues like this, it is tantamount to boiling a frog in warm water and chopping meat with a slow knife, and sooner or later it will be a death." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Qianjian stopped, looked at the guards lying at his feet, looked into the distance from afar, gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "If you can drag it out for a day, sooner or later it will usher in variables." ”
"Hopefully, this variable will come sooner rather than later. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked into the distance and sighed softly.
In the previous discussion, both of them knew what the variables were waiting for, that is, the saints of the Han Dynasty would not sit idly by, and would definitely intervene in it. And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has long known that the Herringbone Mansion has intervened in the matter of Xitui.
I secretly prayed in my heart that this variable would not be slower than those monsters taking over the city.
"Tomorrow, tomorrow, half of the troops of the remaining three cities will be transferred to replace the pressure of the West City Gate, and the original guards of the West City Gate will be replaced to rest. Zhang Qianjian thought about it and said slowly.
"That's right, that's fine. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded, which can be regarded as approving Zhang Qianjian's decision.
Another five days have passed, and after the replacement, the guards' mental outlook is indeed much better, but it is not a long-term solution.
And just after another five days, the weather turned completely cool, and winter began......
When the first soldier infected with wind and cold appeared, it was like an introduction, one after another soldiers began to be plagued by illness and were unable to fight anymore, and all the doctors and Langzhong in the city went to the city to treat the disease.
At first, this medicine was enough, but the later it was, the more this medicine was not enough, so they could only use hot soup to give the soldiers a bowl to drink, treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
On the head of the city, the cold wind is howling, under the city wall, countless shrimp soldiers and crab generals, like crazy demons, since three days ago, the monster army is divided into two batches, one group climbs to the city wall, and a group continues to hit the city gate, it has been hitting for three days, and now the city gate has not been damaged in the slightest.
And at this time, the first bad news, something that needs to be handled carefully, happened.
"Your Excellency...... The reinforcements mentioned earlier...... Let's stop these monsters...... The first wave of impact...... It's coming...... Where's the reinforcements?" staccato words came from the mouth of a tired guard.
