Chapter 183: One City and Seven Walls

"Roar, roar, roar!"

An hour of a quarter of an hour and twenty-eight breaths later, the 30,000 Black Flag Army arrived at its destination.

In front of it, there was a hideous city, lying on the ground like an ancient beast, looking down on all beings.

In front of the city stood a young man, quietly watching the army.

"En?" Xu Ji stepped up, glanced at the other party, and slowly spoke, "You are the demon who is causing trouble in Ping'an County?"

The young man laughed, "Isn't it, is there a difference now? You are here to suppress demons, whether I have done anything in Ping'an County or not, I will be suppressed, since this is the case, why bother to say more?"

"Makes sense. Xu Ji said in a deep voice.

"So...... I am waiting for you in the city. I hope you come in sooner, and of course I hope you don't come in. With that, the young man turned and entered the city behind him.

Xu Ji watched the young man enter, saw the large city in front of him, touched his beard for a long time, and slowly said, "It's not simple. ”

With a "snap", Jiang Sheng had already knelt on one knee and said with red eyes: "General, attack, I will definitely take it down." ”

Xu Ji ignored it.

Jiang Sheng shouted again.

Then Xu Ji slapped Jiang Bai on the back of his head, almost knocking his head off, and said with a slight sorrow: "What's noisy, naturally there are times when you want to fight hard, but not now." ”

"Why?" Jiang Sheng was puzzled.

"The method of using soldiers, ten is to encircle, five is to attack, multiple is to fight, the enemy can be divided, less can escape, if not, it can be avoided. Now, our army is dozens of times the other side, and as long as we do not mess up, we will be able to win. Acting rashly is giving the other party a chance, you know. Therefore, don't rush to attack, first go and cut down the wood, set up the camp, trap this city for me, and stabilize the situation. Got it?"

"Understood. ”

"It's good to understand, Jiang Sheng listened to the order and ordered you to immediately cut down timber nearby and build a camp. In addition, inform the firehead army, bury the pot and cook, and after everything is done, prepare for the attack. ”

"Yes! The subordinate took the order!" Jiang Sheng punched the Xuanjia on his chest, then stood up and quickly led the people away.

Looking at the back of Jiang Sheng leaving, Xu Ji shook his head slightly, turned around and walked into the general's tent.

Then, before a cup of tea was available, the soldiers were ordered to hurriedly enter the tent and report: "General, Captain Jiang Sheng reported that he had not found any trees within a radius of one mile, and was looking outside. ”

"Well, got it. Xu Ji frowned slightly, and then waved his hand to drive the herald out of the tent.

However, when the incense stick was not enough, the herald entered the big tent again, "General, Captain Jiang Sheng reported again, within a radius of two miles, there is no tree that can build a camp, and it needs to be explored again." ”

"Hmm. Xu Ji waved his hand again, his face a little ugly.

A quarter of an hour later, the herald arrived for the third time, glanced at Xu Ji carefully, and said a little nervously: "Captain Jiang Sheng reported back and said...... It is said that no trees have been found within three miles, and they are still looking outside. ”

Xu Ji's face became gloomy, and he said to himself: "Is it clear that the wall is clear? ”

"Then we ......," the herald asked cautiously.

"Order Jiang Sheng to continue exploring. Didn't the other side not let us build a big camp, we didn't follow his wishes, we must find trees, no matter how far or near!"

"Yes. The herald nodded, and quickly exited the tent.

After a long time, the herald returned, his face finally relaxed a little, and he said loudly: "General Xu, Captain Jiang Sheng sent back the news, saying that a forest was found four miles away, across the mountain, and now it is being cut down on a large scale and transported to the station. ”

Xu Ji nodded expressionlessly, then looked at the herald and said, "You can urge me to urge the fire head army again and let them move faster." ”

"Yes. The herald immediately walked out, and then a soldier dressed as a firehead ran in, and the two men bumped into one of them. Before the herald could speak, the firehead army had already reported: "General, it may be a little late to start dinner today. ”

"Then speed up the process. Xu Ji frowned.

"Oh. The firehead nodded cautiously, and was about to walk out again.

As a result, the second firehead army crashed in, "General, there may be a delay in the start of dinner today." ”

"Got it. Xu Ji waved his hand and said with some displeasure, "In addition, go back and tell you the captain of the Huotou Army, you don't have to tell me twice in a word." ”

"Oh. With that, the two fireheads and a herald walked together towards the outside of the tent, and then just then, a third firehead crashed in.

"Aren't you also here to tell me that the meal will be late, right?" Xu Ji looked at the third firehead army with a bit of anger.

The man nodded a little fearfully, then shook his head after that.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Yes...... Be...... It was the captain who said that the water sources in the vicinity were filled and blown up, and they needed to be restored, so it was really late to start dinner today. ”

"How late?"

"I don't know. ”

"Okay, I see, get out of here. Xu Ji forced his anger to speak, and immediately the four of them rolled out in one go. Luckily, there wasn't a fifth person to mess with.

And after everyone was gone, Xu Ji was alone in the tent, but his face was very ugly, and he said to himself, "Jianbi Qingye, I didn't expect you to do it not thoroughly, but very thoroughly, hum!"

......

Eventually, the camp was set up and the meal was ready.

It's just that all this was completed nearly two hours later than Xu Ji had planned, so lunch became lunch.

Xu Ji sat alone in the big tent, drinking a bowl of brown rice porridge tastelessly, and when he was halfway through the drink, he put it down, and he really couldn't drink it anymore.

Because, stuffy!

Xu Ji glanced at the direction of the city outside, his two eyebrows slowly raised, and the next moment he suddenly opened his mouth and roared, "Order, prepare to attack!"

"Yes!" the heralds outside the tent immediately rushed to the various camps.

Jiang Sheng in the camp of the Left Banner Battalion was also drinking porridge, and after listening to this order, he stood up directly, shook the big bowl of porridge in his hand, picked up his weapon and rushed outside, shouting while rushing, "The second squadron of the Left Banner Battalion is assembled, speed is assembled!"

"Roar, roar, roar!"

Then the offensive began.

Jiang Sheng had red eyes, and with two thousand people, he launched the first wave of attacks towards the city, but it was not very smooth.

First, the ladder was erected, but it was immediately overturned by the people of the city.

It was put up again, and it was flipped down again.

When the ladder was ruthlessly overturned for the third time, Jiang Sheng understood that it was impossible to forcibly climb the city with a ladder, because the manpower in the city was too great, even if ten people climbed on a ladder, it would still be overturned.

In that case, there is only a strong attack!

"Hit the wood!" Jiang Sheng shouted.

Immediately, dozens of people ran up from behind with the bumper wood, and then began to accelerate, and continued to accelerate, and finally slammed into the gate of the city.

With a "boom", the city gate shook slightly.

With two "booms", the city gate tilted.

With three "booms", the city gate broke.

Then there were four and five sounds, and when the seventh sound, the whole city gate finally fell, and the vanguard troops poured in like a tide, and then the collective was stunned, and they saw that there was still an inner city in the city.

The walls of the inner city were thicker, and the gates of the inner city were stronger.

The soldier was a little depressed, but he was not idle, and began to bang on the door again with the bumper wood.

This time, there were thirteen bangs, and the gates of the inner city fell again.

However, this seems to be just a foreshadowing of the beginning, because in the inner city, there is still a city.

Mie Castle?

No, it's a seven-story city!

This is not unique to Sun Li, in the modern movie "The Lord of the Rings", Minas Tirith, the capital of the Kingdom of Gangzawa, is constructed in this way. In the Spring and Autumn Period of China, all small countries that were often bullied often did the same, and the national capital was often one inner city and six outer Guo, with a total of seven walls.

Now Sun Li just borrowed it, and then did it a little more thoroughly.

The soldiers were about to scold their mothers, but Jiang Sheng took the lead in scolding, scolding while leading people to break down the door harder.

At this point, the battle changed from bloody fighting to forced demolition, and the soldiers also changed from professional soldiers to migrant workers......

"Boom, boom", the sound of impact sounded for most of the day.

The city wall broke through a total of six paths, and the last one was left standing in place, and the sound of gold sounded, Jiang Bai took a look, gritted his teeth and retreated.

Then Jiang Sheng walked into Xu Ji's tent with a sad and angry face, and said, "General, let's fight at night, in half an hour, I will be able to break through the last city wall." ”

"Since it can be broken, what's the hurry, anyway, the wall is there, and you can't run. Today, the soldiers are very tired, so go back and rest, and wait until tomorrow to break the city. ”

"But ......" Jiang Sheng still had to say something, but seeing Xu Ji's disobedient look, he still bowed his head and turned around and left the big tent.

Xu Ji, on the other hand, looked at the night outside with a little worry, and was silent.

Seven walls? Is it just seven walls?
