3. The Fall of the Lion King Chapter 85 The Star of the Wild Sand
General Nick was sick for six days.
The army of the Wild Sand Empire attacked the outskirts of Heather Fort for six days without making any progress.
They had managed to poison the aqueduct in Tucheng, only to discover that it had been abandonedβa huge well had been dug in the Heather Fort for daily needs.
The Wild Sand Army also attempted to forcibly attack the city with a long ladder with hooks. The defenders of Shinanbao had already prepared long bamboo poles to constantly push down ladders, and also smashed large and small stones from the city wall, which made the wild sand army hold their heads and run away.
The "Wild Sand Star" was very anxious, and sent people to build a tortoiseshell chariot, and carried the bows and arrows and stones on the city wall straight to the city gate. The defenders threw oil pots from the top of the city, and the raging fire instantly engulfed the rushing cart, roasting the people inside to dried corpses.
The Sand Army finally resorted to the tactics of exhaustion, and suddenly beat drums and shouted in the middle of the night. The defenders will do what they want, open the gates and release a few cavalry archers to give them a few explosive arrows.
Seeing that the casualties of the Wild Sand Army were increasing day by day, and the logistical supply was becoming more and more difficult, the "Wild Sand Star" did not know what means to use and got ten artillery pieces. In the afternoon, the cannons were lined up outside the Heather Castle, and after a few rounds of air sounds to boost the army's prestige, the young master general wore black iron armor and held a sword in his hand, and rode a pitch-black alpaca to the front of the battle, and threatened at the top of his voice: "Listen, I am the 'Star of the Wild Sands'!" You have four days to surrender, do you hear? β
This shout, which was almost mentally retarded, caused several Crazy Sand officers behind him to sneer, secretly wondering how they were so unlucky to meet such a waste master.
.
Just as he was calling for battle, the men in the barracks were also chewing their tongues while packing up the cooking utensils: "Has this general really fought?" β
"I've fought pirates," someone replied, brushing the pot, "I've heard that you won after ten days." β
"I don't think he understands anything, he's stupid like a clown." The other brushed the plate and said.
Someone slapped his face and shouted, "You're right! He used to be a clown in the palace. β
There was a burst of laughter in the room.
"The clown is a general, no wonder the defense is lax."
"yes, I'll just say......" The guy was just about to tell a joke, when he suddenly felt a chill hit from behind! He turned sharply and saw a man in a pitch-black cloak standing behind him. In desperation, he picked up the kitchen knife and shouted, "What person?!" β
Without smiling, he looked around as if no one was around: "The people of the Red Pavilion." β
The other guys immediately put down the work in their hands and picked up the kitchen knives and sticks at hand, "The people of the Red Pavilion? What are you here to do? β
"Look at lunch." Buxiao stretched out his hand and picked up a piece of cactus, "Cold cactus, with blue paralytic mushroom powder, is enough to pull for two days." β
As if to verify the rhetoric of not smiling, these guys suddenly felt a dull pain from their abdomen.
The man with the kitchen knife was already slowly twisting in the cramps of his abdomen, his hands were trembling, his feet were trembling, and his facial features seemed to be about to be rearranged and combined.
Several other guys were also covered in cold sweat, holding their lower abdomen with their hands, clamping their legs, and the sound of gurgling in their abdomen came and went, and the sound of farts was endless.
"You're ...... Poisoned ...... "The guy with the kitchen knife waved the knife and wanted to chop, but his limbs had already lost his strength, and he was soft as if he was waving a streamer. Without smiling, he casually punched the man in the stomach, and the man's crotch immediately turned yellow, and the stench was permeated.
The remaining fellows were weak on all fours, and fell to their knees with a thud, and after struggling a few times, they simply lay on the ground, not knowing whether they didn't want to get up or couldn't get up.
If you don't laugh, you naturally won't argue with them about who is worse than poisoning the drain or putting laxatives at lunch, and look at these people lying on the ground and pulling the vertical and horizontal shut, turn around and leave. Before leaving, he did not forget to take out the unextinguished firewood from the stove and throw it into the grain and straw stack.
.
The soldiers on the walls of Heather Fort were a little scared at first when they saw the cannons, but when the "Wild Sand Star" came out to provoke, they felt ridiculous.
Just as the young general was in high spirits, he suddenly became speechless as if he had been beaten. Immediately afterward, I saw him jumping off the alpaca with his stomach in his hands, turning his head and running back.
And those soldiers in the wild sand also threw away their armor one after another, and a large number of people and horses poured into the pit of the military camp
This strange scene made the defenders on the city wall look puzzled and looked at each other, who would have thought that they just had diarrhea at the same time.
And just as the soldiers of the wild sand were charging towards the pit, smoke was already billowing from the houses and the grain and grass storehouse.
In order to avoid the transmission of malaria and other diseases, it is necessary to build a pit downwind in the barracks. Therefore, the bunch and the thatched pit must be in the two sections of the barracks.
or save food? This became a tram problem. The battalion of wild sand soldiers ran east and west, and wanted to save grain and grass, and wanted to run the dung pit, many soldiers were tired of running and urine, and the whole camp suddenly became a lair of shells.
The soldiers on the city wall were stunned for a long time, until a chariot swayed to the city gate and shouted loudly, and no one came back to their senses: "Look, it's Finks and don't laugh, open the door!" β
A general dressed like an iron bucket ran excitedly to the city, "Finks, you little liar is still alive!" As she spoke, she pulled off her scarred, torn iron helmet, revealing her long, flaming red hair.
Finks couldn't wait to jump out of the car and hug her: "Danica, look at your boobs, why am I willing to die in front of you?" β
"My little, let Mommy hug me again!"
Looking at the wonderful friendship of the two sisters, they shrugged their shoulders without smiling and walked quickly up the city wall with their staffs. A deer general with a longbow and a flail on his back approached, and the war had left him disgraced, with a bandage around his waist, and even a section of the antlers on his head had been broken.
"Don't laugh!" He exclaimed, "Thank you Mother of the Sea for bringing you!" β
The unsmiling gaze swept over the man's whole body like lightning, and finally fixed on the blackened right hand: "Fili, your hand? β
"It's hard to put into words." Fili sighed deeply and said, "Brady betrayed Chishuiwan, colluded with the Daughter of Ironbeard, the Manga clan of Black Steel, and General Nick of the Wild Sands, and attacked from three sides at the same time, and we were almost unable to defend it alone. β
The non-smiling brain raced fast for a while, "Who is Brady?" β
Although he has a good brain, his lonely personality always makes it difficult for him to remember the names of fools.
"Of course, it's the 'patriarch' of the Red Pavilion." Danica ruffled her red hair, "Those patriarchs are the best at making trouble, and they're the quickest to surrender." In your absence, you re-elected the leader and replaced the command of Greystone Castle. When I heard that Blacksteel was attacking, Greystone Fort directly opened the door and surrendered. β
Fili shook his pitch-black right hand, "Let's not mention the matter of Greystone Castle first, we also have spies in Heather Castle. I don't know what kind of poison was used, but if Danica hadn't used her blood to help me dilute the poison, I'd probably be dead. β
Danica's face was slightly hot, "Go, go, we Dune Wujie said that we will live and die together, what should we do if you die first?" β
Bu Xiao carefully looked at Fili's right hand, the surface was as cold as a corpse, "It's black magic, and it will attack in four days." β
"Can you solve it?" Danica asked with concern behind her.
"Gotta catch the caster." Bu smiled and tightened his lips, and the scenes played out quickly in his mind.
Four days later, the curse broke out, four more days had to be surrendered, ten days to defeat the pirates, and six days of siege plus four days were also ten days.
Is it a coincidence?
Buxiao was silent for a while, "This magic requires four mediums: Devil's Flower, Hao Mandaju, Black Vine, and Ge Luogen. You can start your investigation here. β
As he spoke, there was another burst of cannon fire from the Wild Sand Barracks, which startled Fili and Danica to get up and check.
I saw that those dung pits were blown up by columns of sewage several feet high, and the uproar was like a "dung rain". The stench of the mad sand army filled the camp, and the scolding was skyrocketing.
Finks stood on the city wall and laughed: "is going to be lively, are you satisfied with these bundles of bombs?" β
Poisoning food and dropping bombs in a dung pit are such bad things that can only be done without laughing.
The defenders on the city wall were all laughing on their backs, and Danica rolled on the ground with laughter: "Wahahahaha, the Wild Sand Empire has become a 'wild dung' empire!" I'm laughing to death! β
