The 1165 offensive began
Such a discovery made Miao County make several people feel cold! At this moment, they all want to throw a string of firecrackers into the stockade to give the Tan brothers a wake-up call! But what they hope more is that the Tan brothers can repel the attack of the official army, or flee to the world! It's better that none of their men are left behind, so that no one will reveal anything else!
But their hopes were soon dashed! Because under the general command of Xu Jiang, the soldiers were divided into three teams, and two small teams moved directly to the side and rear of the mountain. And it seems that the path in the direction behind the mountain has already been mastered by them!
The remaining 500 or so people rested in the bushes for a while, and only then did they begin to climb up the mountain path after the team to the back of the flank was in place. And Miao Xian Ling and others, including those porters, slowly climbed up the mountain under the protection of a team of soldiers.
But everyone's eyes were fixed on the soldiers in front of them! Especially Miao County, several people have been praying in their hearts, and the people in the cottage quickly find these soldiers!
Perhaps their prayers worked, and at last one of the bandits lazily rose from behind the wall! It seemed that he wanted to untie his pants and pee underneath, but before the urine came out, he was surprised to let go of his pants with both hands, and the pants fell directly to the top of his feet, revealing his bare lower body! Because he had already seen a large group of soldiers who were rapidly climbing upwards!
After a few moments, the guy suddenly screamed loudly and turned around and ran! As a result, he forgot that his pants were still wrapped around his feet, and he planted himself directly from the wall! But he has already succeeded in completing the early warning!
When the soldiers approached the wall for more than 200 steps, many bandits in the village rushed to the city with knives and guns! Seeing this scene, Miao County made several people breathe a sigh of relief!
In their imagination, the only flat land on the mountain was occupied by the cottage, and all that was left was tilted bodies. The only path is only the width of two people side by side! According to the script, as long as the rolling wood thunder stone is thrown, and then the arrows are fired in unison, the besieging side will retreat with heavy casualties! So they had been expecting this kind of scene to happen, but it was disappointing that the scenario they imagined didn't happen at all!
By the time the soldiers approached the wall, they had already spread out to both sides, maintained a rough skirmish line and began to slowly surround it, as if the tide was gradually rising the mountain! And the bandits on the wall did nothing but shout and run around!
The reason for this is that Miao Xianling and others finally figured it out! Repairing the cottage itself is already a matter of urgency, so naturally there will not be too many defensive measures prepared! Moreover, the bandits thought that what they were doing was very hidden, and no one would find it here, and it is estimated that they probably didn't even prepare for the Rolling Wood Thunder Stone!
As for saying that arrows rain down, it's even more of a joke! It takes a year or two to train an archer at the earliest, and judging from the temperament of these people, they are all masters who are easy and disgusting, how can they stop their minds to train bow and arrow skills!
However, when the soldiers of the new army approached the wall for more than 80 steps, Tan Chunlin finally arranged the defense! He arranged his family and family in the rear of the cottage, and if the war did not go well, he could scatter and flee along the two paths behind the side. The rest of the young men were divided into two teams by him, one team was on guard at the wall, and the other team was repairing under the wall. He also knows that he can't take all the stops, and the two teams take turns to defend.
After arranging all the defenses, Tan Chunlin wiped his sweat, stood on the city wall and saw that his subordinates were in good positions, so he was relieved! But he always felt as if he was missing something, after all, he was just a hundred households of the brocade guard, he was not a general who won the battle, and he had not received systematic training in attacking and defending the city, so he could only stare back and forth on the walled wall to see what was missing?
Suddenly, he slapped his head and shouted, "Bow and arrow!" Go and get all the bows and arrows! At this time, Sun Dong beside him shouted loudly: "Baihu, there are few of our brothers who can shoot arrows, and they can't shoot at all!" ”
Tan Chunlin kicked over when he heard this, and said at the same time: "At this time, what the hell does he care if he can shoot accurately?" Just shoot out! ”
At this time, we can see the benefits of turning from an official to a bandit! Because the official army is corrupt, there will be something more or less in the arsenal! And the bow and arrow are an eternal must-have, and there will be no shortage of them! So Sun Dong quickly brought someone to transport a batch of bows and arrows!
Soon most of the people on the wall received a bow and a pot of feather arrows. Regardless of whether they can shoot arrows or not, anyone who can draw the bow is ready to shoot outward. But even so, less than thirty percent of the people on the walled wall can be prepared, and many people are holding bows and arrows to stare dryly! Because starting archery is really a technical job! It's not hard to pull the bow, but it's really hard to pull the bow with feathered arrows!
Tan Chunlin felt chills when he saw everyone in a hurry! And he also knows that there are very few people who can really shoot arrows, and most of them can just shoot feather arrows, and whether they can hit or not depends on probability! So he intends to bring his opponent a little closer before giving the order to shoot arrows!
At this time, the soldiers outside had already stepped within forty paces, and although the team was scattered into a skirmish line due to the mountainous terrain, if you looked closely, you could still roughly see the appearance of three horizontal columns!
Just when Tan Chunlin felt that his mouth was dry and he was about to say something, he heard a "boom" on the wall, and a feather arrow flew out sideways! Apparently the man with the bow accidentally ejected the feathered arrow! Because that feathered arrow is not a normal flight trajectory, but it is spinning horizontally in the sky and flying a few steps away and begins to fall!
But the bandits, who were already terrified, immediately subconsciously shot the feather arrows in their hands! Then immediately open your bow again and start shooting the second round! The result of such a hasty shooting can be imagined! Except for the two or three people who could shoot arrows, all the other feather arrows were shot empty!
The nearest feathered arrow fell from the wall and stuck on the ground, only three steps away from the wall! The farthest feather arrow landed seven or eight paces away from the New Army soldiers! And at the same time, the bandits are still shooting arrows desperately, as if this is how they can give themselves courage!
Tan Chunlin's face turned white when he saw this situation! He hurriedly began to shout loudly to stop shooting! Arrows because archery is also a hard work, and trained people can only shoot eleven or twelve! As for the untrained, if they can shoot six or seven arrows, they have to lose their strength! If you don't stop, when your strength runs out, how can you still have the spirit of fighting!
