Chapter Forty-Three: Iron-Blooded Heart
"Stop! Password! ”
"Mouth... Password? What password? ”
"There are spies! Kill! ”
As soon as he climbed over the wall and killed a few guards, the soldiers of the Montas Country, disguised as soldiers of the Eastern Saint Kingdom, met the oncoming guards, and as soon as they spoke, they were killed with a cowardly face.
"Beware of enemy troops climbing over the city walls, strengthen your guard!" After killing a few soldiers from the Kingdom of Montas, the leader of the guard gave the order to go down.
The Montas soldiers, who had not had time to climb up under the city walls, saw that something was wrong, so they had to quietly retreat again.
"Father! Recently, the enemy army has been climbing over the city wall, and the brothers have increased the frequency and density of patrols and guards, but it is not a way to go on like this, people are always negligent, and they have to think of a trick! Wei Shengbing said.
"Do you have a plan?" Wei Zhong asked.
"You can add bamboo guns and wooden swords along the city wall."
"It's a lot of work, but it's a big deal. Do your best! ”
"Yes, boy, I'll do it."
Another day, Wei Dong came to report, "Father, the enemy army is digging soil everywhere and bagging it, I don't know what the intention is." ”
"Is it digging a tunnel?" Wei Zhong asked.
"So what's the matter?" Wei Dong was at a loss, "He's digging underground, how do we know?" ”。
"I told you to read more military books in normal times, and now you know that you hate less when you use them! There is a strategy in the war book. Dozens of large vats can be placed, half buried in the ground, and monitored day and night. Once you dig it, you can know the direction, and most of the holes are not big, and you can kill as many as you want when the time comes. "Defend the Holy Way.
"Good! Go ahead and do it! Wei Zhong was overjoyed.
Wei Dong touched his head embarrassedly, and said with a smile, "It's not that I can't see it, it's better to dance with a knife and get a gun!" It's too troublesome to arrange troops! ”
"You! Nothing but heroism. Wei Zhong smiled bitterly and washed him.
In the Montas barracks, Neil had a sad face, several sneak attacks had no progress, and the head of the city was equipped with bamboo spears and wooden tips, which were more difficult to cross. The number of guards has increased, and there are passwords, which change from time to time, and even if they turn up, it will be difficult to fool them through.
"Neal is handsome! The soldiers are ready, and the earth is loaded. Give the order to siege the city! ”
"Good! Let's do it when it's dark! Get organized, don't mess around! ”
At night, thousands of people carried sandbags to a distance of 200 meters near the city, and the city guards could already see it, so they began to charge, they carried sandbags and gritted their teeth and ran wildly, and the city guards saw it and shouted: "Enemy attack!" Fight! Archers release arrows! ”
The guards saw that the darkness below was overwhelming, and they didn't know how much, and they shot indiscriminately. Arrows rained down on sandbags, on the ground, and on people.
"Ouch!" The person who was hit by the arrow fell to the ground, the sandbag fell, and the black light blinded the fire, and it became an obstacle.
Those who followed fell one after another, and some people got up and tried to continue rushing with sandbags, but before they could carry them, they were hit by arrows in their backs and vomited blood and fell to the ground.
Some rushed to the city and threw sandbags, ran back, and were shot like hedgehogs.
The first pull ended in failure.
"Again! Get more people up and get the archers to fight back and cover in the back! Tolstoy was not convinced.
This time there were casualties on both sides, and more sandbags were thrown under the city, but they were in a mess and could not be built at all.
"Brother, what are they doing?" Wei Dong asked.
"It seems that I want to pile up piles and pile them into siege trails." Defend the Holy Way.
"Is that okay? Silly it! When we can't see? Wei Dong laughed.
"Just in case, don't let go of any possibility!" Wei Sheng said solemnly.
"Don't worry! Make sure they don't come back! Wei Dong patted his chest and said.
Wei Sheng smiled and patted Wei Dong's shoulder, asking everyone to continue to be on guard.
Tolstoy burst into a rage and said, "You can't throw it around!" Heap it up! ”
"! You're going to be beaten by our iron! I didn't see the archery on it, it was still piled up, and it was hard to rush there! A soldier jumped up and scolded.
"Pull this guy down and cut it down!" Tolstoy was furious, "Whoever dares to disobey orders, he is an example!" ”
"Tolstoy, you don't want to die! Ouch! The soldier still cursed.
"Click!" The knife and axe hand rises and falls.
The head rolled to the ground.
"Give it to me again! Heap it up! Archer cover! Tolstoy again organized thousands of men to rush forward with sandbags, and some empty-handed, in order to carry the sandbags thrown away by the front team.
"The enemy is coming up again! Shoot me! "The guards have already seen it. This time, the soldiers of Montas suffered even more casualties. Didn't pile sandbags in a pile either. The whole city was littered with corpses.
Neil heard the battle report and ordered the attack to be stopped. Tolstoy, like a defeated rooster, drank sullen wine in frustration.
"Bring me the sandbags outside." Wei Dong laughed.
Those carcasses became the rations of wild wolves, wild dogs, and ghould-eating eagles.
At dawn the next day, Monroe reported that the siege equipment had been built, and Neil was overjoyed and ordered to hurry up the drill.
A few days later, everything was ready, and only an order was needed. Neil personally commanded and ordered the entire army to attack the city.
Wei Zhong led the soldiers to be ready for battle. For a while, the rain of arrows with hatred whistled and sprinkled on the enemy.
Those soldiers of the Montas country were not afraid of death, stepped on the corpses, shouted and rushed forward, rushed to the bottom of the city, set up a ladder to climb up, and pushed siege engines to attack the city gate.
"Throw the stone and the wood! Overturn the ladder! Wei Sheng commanded.
The guards threw down the sandbags, stones, and logs that had been brought into the city, and overturned the ladders with long poles, causing the wind and clouds to change color and the sun and moon to be darkened.
After attacking for a long time, there was no progress. Neil had no choice but to withdraw his troops, and the Montas army threw down countless corpses and retreated in disarray. Seeing the enemy retreating, Wei Sheng and Wei Dong ordered to open the city gate and take tens of thousands of military horses out of the city.
Wei Sheng held a steel gun, swept a large area, picked one or two, like an elephant stepping on ants, Wei Dong brandished a big knife, such as chopping vegetables and cutting melons, it was overwhelming, the soldiers of the Montas country fled in panic, they had no will to fight, they could not form an army, and they went straight to the military camp of the Montass country.
Wei Sheng chased after Menroe, knocked him off his horse with one shot, and stabbed him through the throat with another shot.
Neil commanded the troops to encircle and counterattack, and took the lead in rushing towards the defenders with maces. The two fought in one place, regardless of victory or defeat.
Wei Dong led the soldiers to rush left and right, as if entering a no-man's land, killing blood, and his heart was full of joy, "Happy!" Joyfully! ”
Those soldiers also treated one as ten, killing people and setting fires, like wolves into the flock.
"Stop me! Whoever dares to run again will be killed immediately! Mensa yelled and led the law enforcement team to kill dozens of retreating soldiers.
The soldiers of the Montas Kingdom had no choice but to kill the Eastern Saint Army.
Seeing that the enemy army had gradually stabilized its position, and there was a tendency to close the siege, Wei Sheng shook a shot, slapped his horse and walked back, Neil chased closely, "Where to go, leave your life!" ”
Wei Sheng listened to the sound of the defense, and shot back, only to hear the sound of "oops", Neil fell off the horse.
Wei Sheng was about to return to his horse to make up for a shot, and Tolstoy rushed up desperately.
"Withdraw!" Wei Sheng shouted loudly and took the lead in rushing to the camp gate.
"Don't let them run! Give me chase! Mensa shouted.
Na Wei Sheng and Wei Dong led hundreds of cavalry back to kill the generals, scattering the pursuing soldiers of Montas and covering the retreat of the infantry.
Wei Sheng and Wei Dong fought and retreated, and gradually reached the city, and the archers at the head of the city shot a rain of arrows to cover Wei Sheng and Wei Dong's retreat into the city.
The Montas army had no choice but to retreat, but this time they learned their lesson and withdrew in a more orderly manner.
Those siege engines were scattered all over the place.
The Eastern Saint Army waved its flag and shouted at the head of the city, and it was extraordinary.
"It seems that the army of the Kingdom of Mengtass is in vain! 〞
"Vulnerable!"
"That's the commander who is well commanded!"
"That's it! Dashuai is the younger brother of the ancestor and the uncle of the current holy lord, loyal to the country, Wen Taowu strategy, and invincible. That Mengtas country has always been a defeated commander under the big handsome, what is the use of having more people? It's just a few more heads. ”
"Hahahaha! Joyfully! This time I rushed into the enemy camp and cut down ten enemies in a row. It's so enjoyable! ”
"Just blow it! The day before yesterday, he said that he was here to die! ”
"Where? The cowhide is not blown, Lao Tzu is a peerless killing god! I'm the only one who reaps the heads! ”
"Cut! You just blow it! ”
"The commander wants to work the whole army, go! Drink wine and eat meat! ”
One by one, the soldiers were excited.
After winning the battle, the people of the city were finally free to go out of the city at will.
In the Montas camp, Mensa commanded the extinguishing of the fire, the cleaning of the damage, and the burial of the corpses.
Neil's left shoulder was bandaged and he was lying on the bed. He summoned all the generals and said, "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and I expected him to think that our army was defeated, and I don't know whether I am alive or dead." There must be negligence. And we will show it by withdrawing from our army. And ordered the whole army to wear vegetarian clothes, confuse them, and go to the night to attack again. ”
"Brilliant plan!" Tol praised.
"Good news! Great news! The enemy has withdrawn from camp! And the whole army is vegetarian. "The scout is coming.
"Oh? Go out and have a look. ”
Wei Zhong led Wei Sheng and Wei Dong to the head of the city.
I saw that the whole army of Montas had indeed withdrawn from camp.
"What do you think?"
"The boss was killed by the eldest brother, the dragons were leaderless, and they suffered a big defeat, what else can they do if they don't withdraw?" Wei Dong said first.
"I'll see the end!" Wei Shengdao, "Although this battle was completely won, it did not hurt its roots, and the enemy was still strong. Such a hasty retreat in broad daylight may be deceitful. ”
"Do you want to lead us in pursuit? An ambush? Let's just not go out! Wei Dong thought he had guessed right.
"It's also possible! In any case, don't take it lightly! "Wei Shengdao.
"Hmm!" Wei Dong saw Wei Sheng's affirmation, and looked at Wei Zhong triumphantly.
"It seems that my Dong'er is not a reckless man!" Wei Zhong said with a smile.
"That's it! Those who are close to pigs eat, and those who are close to grinders drink! Wei Dong said proudly.
"Hahaha! You! It is red near Zhu, and black near ink. Wei Zhong was amused and laughed.
