Chapter 632: Immortal Warrior
The northwest wind howled, Liupan Mountain turned into a dark color, the grass and trees were withered and yellow, and only the green pines stood tall.
Hu Bo was very angry, and the soldiers sent back to kill the people of Beidi County did not come back, and sent people to urge, but they could not find a trace, nor did they return to the camp, together with the people who crossed the river, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.
Xiao Pass was unable to break through for a long time, seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, the tent was like an ice cave at night, some cattle and sheep had frozen to death, and if it snowed again, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Blocking his dignity and the rise and fall of the Huns, Hu Bo refused to retreat.
In vain, how to face the families of the thousands of warriors who died, as well as the expectations of the clansmen?
After ten days of preparation, Hu Bo gathered his troops and horses again to launch a final attack on Xiao Pass.
In Xiao Pass, the defenders finally waited for Lu Shuihu's reinforcements, but these soldiers were sloppy in military discipline, and they could only rush to kill on horseback, and they all shouted that they would go out of the pass to fight with the Huns, and they would not defend the city at all.
Hu Zun only wanted to design to lure the enemy, and was unwilling to let these simple-minded reckless men go out of the customs and send them to death, so he finally pacified them, and a new round of attack by the Huns came.
In the dense rain of arrows, the Huns rushed to the city again, they not only prepared a taller and sturdy ladder, but also pushed a rushing cart to appear.
It was a heavy and slow rush car that Dan La had built herself, but it was a threat to the gate, and if he could break through the wooden door, he wouldn't have to risk his life to get to the city.
In the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the rushing car made a squeaky sound, slowly approaching the city, more than a dozen soldiers pushed left and right, still like a snail, so anxious that the back of the posture stomped his feet, along the way there were soldiers who continued to fall, immediately ordered someone to step forward to fill the position, must not let this stupid guy stop.
After the first two sieges of the city, the adjutant general had complete trust in Hu Zun, handed over the matter of defending the city to him, and was willing to dispatch soldiers in the rear to transport supplies and treat the wounded.
Hu Zun's face sank like water, staring at the Hun soldiers who were climbing the city and constantly firing arrows, and the surrounding oil, ash bottles and sassal wood were constantly thrown down, and in the screams, the rushing car was also slowly approaching.
Finally pushed to the city by the Hun soldiers, Hu Zun pointed to the flag, and finally the only remaining sulfur and oil were all smashed into the rushing car, and the fire arrows followed, in the flames, the Huns scattered in a hurry.
The rushing cart that consumed nearly 100 lives and pushed it to the city did not play a role, but it burned and turned into a pile of black ash in a blink of an eye, which made the Hun soldiers who charged on both wings stagnant under their feet, and the offensive was greatly reduced.
"Mingjin retreats!" Ju Zizhi's face was pale, and he was so murderous that he was frightened by this miserable scene, and he lost the courage to attack.
All the Hun soldiers were also demoralized, and some even shed tears, they were not afraid of charging, they were not afraid of riding war horses to fight with powerful enemies, even if they were trampled into meat by war horses, it was much better than sending them to death in vain.
"Shaman Danla, is this your siege method?" Ju Zizhi's eyes were bloodshot, staring at Dan La, like a hungry wolf who chose to devour people.
There was no fluctuation in Danla's cloudy and dark yellow eyes, and he said slowly: "The general is angry, I have seen just now, the defenders have run out of oil and sulfur......"
"Boiling water doesn't work!" Ju Zizhi roared, clenched his fists and said, "Otherwise, I'll splash you with a basin of boiling water to try?" ”
"No need!" Danla shook her head slightly, raised her scepter and said, "If there is nothing that ignites, the next rush will work." The general continues to prepare, it's time for our Immortals to take the field. ”
"Immortals?" Ju Zizhi was taken aback, frowned slightly, and finally didn't say anything more, and the herald ended again.
The immortals are the dead soldiers selected from the Xiongnu tribes, they are brave and fierce, after drinking the sacred water given by the shaman, they will become warriors who are not afraid of swords and guns, and they will move forward, and after death, the soul will become the guardian god of the immortal sky.
The low and long horn sounded again, and the Hun soldiers regrouped, looking at the thousand shirtless people in front of them, all of them showed excited looks.
The bright and shiny bald head, the dark golden runes, the knotted muscles, and the bulging green tendons all show the courage and majesty of the Immortal Heavenly Warriors.
The morale of the Hun soldiers was greatly boosted, and the second group of soldiers rushed to the city again, dozens of ladders were set up at the head of the city, hooked the wall battlements with hooks, and began to climb upward, and another rushing car also approached the gate.
Danla stood in a car, holding up her scepter and looking up at the sky, her hair fluttering in the wind and her shriveled lips making strange noises.
The warriors looked sluggish, and when they heard a sharp and dry voice, they suddenly moved together, like zombies, and swarmed forward, without wearing armor, and let the arrows hit their bodies, but they were unmoved, and strode forward.
The soldiers in front were again defeated by the indiscriminate arrows and the wood, but the immortal warriors also arrived at the bottom of the city, grabbed the ladder and climbed up, and smashed the ash bottle and stone on the head, beating the skin and flesh, but they still did not lose their lives, and stubbornly moved forward.
Flying rocks and arrows were shooting at these zombie soldiers intensively, but only those with mutilated limbs fell under the city, and as long as they could still move, they were approaching the city.
"What kind of monster is this?" Hu Zun was shocked, he didn't expect that there were still unkillable monsters in the Hun army.
Several arrows were aimed at one of the bald soldiers, blinding him in both eyes, but he was still unaffected and stubborn.
When someone finally climbed to the top of the city, Hu Zun threw away his bow and arrows, took a spear and pushed it down the city, and shouted: "Set fire to the ladder!" ”
At this time, the rushing car also began to storm the gate, this time the Huns saw a glimmer of hope, Ju Zizhi's eyes showed a bloodthirsty light, clenched his fists and roared, as long as he broke through the gate, he swore to chop these defenders into pulp.
The gate was quickly torn apart, but the next moment Ju Zizhi was dumbfounded, only to see huge stones exposed inside the gate, and the defenders had already blocked the passage.
Countless torches and firewood were thrown down in the city, and the ladder was lit again, and although those warriors were not afraid of death, they were also burned in the face of the fire, and they fell one after another as the ladder burned.
Only a dozen people climbed to the top of the city, but they were just moths to the fire, and they were all hacked to death by the defenders, and some were directly pushed off the city, fell into the fire, and disappeared.
Black smoke billowed and the drums had long since stopped, and Danla looked at the corpse in the corner, her wrinkled face twitching, screaming, and falling from the wooden cart.
Ju Zhi hurriedly hugged him, and was not knowing how to act, when suddenly a cavalryman came to the front of the formation and ordered: "The king has an order, withdraw immediately." ”
"Why?" Ju Zizhi put down the struggling Danla, waved the flag in his hand and roared: "I am about to climb to the top of the city, and I will succeed if I do it again!" ”
The herald said: "There is an immortal just now, he can help the king break through the level, and he is divining the heavens. ”
"Immortals?" Ju Zizhi glanced at the banner of the Han army on the head of the city, his eyes shrunk, and he had to give the order to retreat.
