Chapter 452: Storming, Climbing Over the City Wall
Wei Wuji and the others sat down to rest, and a general of the Chifeng Army stepped forward with a smile and praised everyone a few words. [No pop-ups]
Then, two officials of the Military Aircraft Government took a list of pen and ink, spread it out on the table, read the names of everyone, and wrote down the merits they had received. All the contestants were dancing and talking to each other. No one cares if they win or lose this war, and for the contestants, military merit is the most important thing.
The barbarians outside the city did not attack immediately, and an hour passed.
Wei Wuji's eyes were slightly closed, and he sat against the wall, as if he was in a state of flux. The other contestants are similar, resting and recuperating.
At this moment, Wei Wuji suddenly opened his eyes, and a hint of surprise flashed. He felt a slight tremor on the ground and couldn't help but stand up.
"Wuji, what's wrong with you?" asked Sven as he sat next to him, looking at Wei Wuji.
"Something wasn't right, the ground was shaking. Wei Wuji replied.
Shi Wen listened attentively, and also felt the vibration of the ground, and his face showed a look of surprise.
At this time, a general of the Chifeng Army walked in, "The barbarians have begun to attack the city, all go up to the city tower to defend, come with me"
Wei Wuji and the others hurriedly walked out of the house and followed the generals towards the city wall.
"Brother Wei, I've finally waited for you again, hehe. General Tong stood on the city wall, looked at Wei Wuji who was rushing over, and shouted loudly. The general standing next to him was also Wei Wuji's old acquaintance Wu Zhen.
Wei Wuji knew that General Tong had a relationship, so he specially transferred himself to assist. It's better to work with familiar people on the battlefield than with strangers. He hurried forward to greet the two of them, and then walked to the battlement of the city wall and looked out.
The barbarians outside the city were like a tidal wave, and they came towards the city wall in black pressure.
"There are so many barbarians, and they are still carrying siege equipment, this is preparing for a strong attack" Shi Wen's face changed color.
The other contestants, looking at the barbarians outside the city, also had a great change in their expressions.
"Brother Wei, what do you think?" General Tong asked.
"There is no better way to attack the city and seize the land, but to defend it to the death. Wei Wuji said.
General Tong Wu Zhendu's face was awe-inspiring and nodded.
At this time, the horn sounded outside the city, and the tide of barbarians all stopped.
"The position of the formation is really accurate, just outside the range of the catapult. Sven said stupidly.
"There are only two catapults available, and their lethality is limited, and they can't stop the barbarian offensive. Wei Yijian said.
"It's better than nothing. Sven sighed.
"The city wall is fifty zhang long, I don't know how they will break it? I guess the direction of the main attack is still the position of the gap. Han Yuxin said.
"If their main direction is the gap position, we will have a lot less pressure here. However, I don't think it's that simple, and the barbarians have other countermeasures. Wei Wuji said.
"I don't know what the equipment is pushing among the barbarians? Sven asked.
"I can't see it, I'll know in a moment anyway. Wei Wuji replied.
"Looks like it could be a bed crossbow, right?" replied General Tong.
"There are thousands of crossbows in total, right?" said Sven in shock.
Everyone was talking, and in the barbarian array, there was a sudden sound of war drums, knock knock
With the sound of this war drum, in the barbarian battle array that stretched for several miles, all the war drums moved with it, and the sound of the drums shook the sky, like thunder.
In the barbarian battle array, countless old and weak soldiers walked out, and the array was in front.
"Damn it, it's these old and weak people who are leading the way?" General Tong had an ugly look on his face.
"Expected, not surprising. Wei Wuji smiled.
At this time, the siege bed crossbow in the barbarian array also lifted the shield, revealing its grandeur. The bow arm of the bed crossbow is two zhang long, and the length of the arrow is about one zhang, like a wooden pillar, and the arrow made of stainless steel flashes with cold light, making people shudder.
"Such a bed crossbow, I seem to understand the barbarians' siege methods," Wei Wuji suddenly realized.
"By what means?" General Tong asked.
"I'm just guessing, maybe not. General Tong, you let the soldiers take more shields, and if there are barbarians rushing up the city wall, use the shield battle array to kill. Everyone should pay attention to the fact that the barbarians who rushed up have all taken the promotion medicine, and their strength will be stronger than ever. Wei Wuji said to everyone.
General Tong obeyed Wei Wuji's words, agreed, and asked the soldiers to prepare to go.
At this time, in the barbarian array, the drums beat rapidly.
The old and weak soldier began to stride forward, and his mouth began to hum a tune. Maybe he knew that his fate would be under Chifeng City, and the tune was sad and indescribably desolate and pathetic.
In March in Chifeng, the sheep and grass grow, the ice and snow are coming, who feeds the wolf? The world pities the sheep, the wolf dies alone, the heart of the sky is unpredictable, and the world is like frost.
At first, the barbarian movement was not very loud, but then everyone began to hum, and the sound merged into a torrent, echoing high in the sky.
"It's this tune again, I don't know if that bastard sage wrote it, Nima's ......," Sven couldn't help but scold.
"Brother, in fact, they are also very miserable, for the survival of future generations, they have traveled thousands of miles to the south, just to eat a bite. Shi Ziyi whispered beside him.
"Do they have anything to eat, it's my little sister, they're eating people, cannibalism, are we going to pity them because of this? No, I'll slaughter them," Sven said angrily.
"The heart of heaven is unpredictable, the world is like frost, Brother Shi, I am also related. Their barbarians are almost hungry every year, and they die every year, even if there is a good harvest year, but a few people die. I don't know why?" Wei Yijian also sighed.
"Don't say these useless words, the barbarians' bed crossbows are pushed up, ready to fight," Wei Wuji interjected and shouted.
The huge bed crossbow was pushed by several barbarians towards the city wall. At this time, the old and weak barbarians who were running in front had already reached the distance of a bow and arrow.
"Archer, Forward Fire"
General Tong gave an order, and the archers on the city wall opened their bows and drew arrows, and countless arrows flew into the air, and the rain of arrows fell overwhelmingly on the barbarians.
The barbarians began to take their medicine and quickened their pace towards the city walls. During the run, many barbarians were hit by arrows, but as long as they were not hit, they would continue to walk forward until they were hit by arrows again, unable to support them, and then fell to the ground and died.
Two catapults in the city began to throw fireballs at the barbarians who rushed up. The fireball fell, and many barbarians were hit, screaming and dying. Although the catapults are powerful, they are too few in number, and in the face of many barbarians, it is only a drop in the bucket.
At this time, the drumbeat of the barbarian war drum became more urgent, and with the sound of the drum, the barbarians who rushed up began to run wildly.
The bed crossbows of the Huhu barbarians were fired together, and arrows several feet long shot towards the city wall, densely penetrating into the wall
"It seems that my estimate is correct, the other barbarians will climb the arrows on the wall and climb over the wall. Wei Wuji said to everyone.
As soon as he finished speaking, another burst of crossbow arrows shot at the city wall, and the steel arrows were nailed into the wall, as if countless wooden stakes had been driven into the wall. Everyone standing on the city wall felt the vibration of the city wall and looked shocked.
The old and weak barbarians, whose eyes were as red as beasts, howled loudly, rushed wildly, and quickly approached the city wall. Grabbing the crossbow arrows that had penetrated the walls with both hands, they climbed towards the city
