Chapter 253: The charge is imminent
Facing the Tatar army of 600,000, as well as the blue wolf and white deer, and the shaman, General He obviously showed a worried look.
Adjutant General Ma said: "General He, it turns out that the first two Tatars were testing our reality, and their secret weapons were these beasts. ”
General He said: "That's right, these beasts can be one against a hundred, the beasts are afraid of fire, we also need to increase gunpowder and kerosene to supply quickly." ”
After receiving the order, Deputy General Ma quickly arranged for people to quickly collect gunpowder and kerosene.
General He then said: "There will be a fierce battle today, and it is too late for you to regret it." ”
Cai Die looked back at everyone, all of them had firm eyes, and they had no intention of retreating, so they said categorically: "General He, I have made up my mind, even if I die on the battlefield, I will not hesitate to do it." ”
General He looked at several people, was very moved, and said excitedly: "Very good, very good, beautiful China, having good sons and daughters like you is the blessing of my China, and with such a spirit, China will live forever!
General He's words were very passionate, and his voice was loud, resounding through the city wall, and all the soldiers were also enthusiastic, and the group was excited, shouting together: "China will always exist, the homeland will not be defeated! China will always exist, the homeland will not be defeated! China will always exist, the homeland will not be defeated!" He said it three times in a row, resounding through the sky, presumably the Tatars could also hear it.
The Tatar leader Lin Dan Khan said in the tribal language: "This group of Han people is dying, and they are still making their last wailing struggles. ”
The deputy general next to him slaughtered the track: "When our blue wolf and white deer bite them for a while, there is a time when they scream in pain." ”
Lin Dan Khan was very arrogant, and threw his tiger skin coat back and said: "As long as Guyuan is captured, Chang'an City will be in my Lin Dan Khan's bag, and the beauties of the Han people, cattle and sheep will all belong to us hahaha." ”
The fried flowers next to him, Buck, Semoto and others also laughed together, as if they had felt the joy of harvest.
These laughs gradually evolved into neat roars: "Roar, roar, roar......" The voice was low and powerful, like the lowness of a beast.
General He and the others standing on the city wall heard it clearly, shaking the valley.
Adjutant Ma said: "This is the Tatar response, it seems that he thinks we are provoking." ”
General He said: "This is the nature of savages, as long as we have any movement, they will demonstrate. ”
Adjutant General Ma said: "Looking at its momentum, it seems to be confident. ”
"They thought that with these blue wolves, white deer and shamans, they could do whatever they wanted, as if they had seen the dawn of victory, which was a sign of pride. ”
"The proud army will be defeated. ”
"That's right, to frustrate their momentum and avoid their edge, as long as they block the attack of this wave of beasts, their morale will be greatly reduced, and then we will be able to win a great victory by taking advantage of the victory. ”
Adjutant General Ma said: "They are bound to win, the first wave of attack must do our best, we must defend to the death, as long as we can hold on, there is hope of victory." ”
Cai Die said: "General He, can our city wall withstand these blue wolves and white deer?" ”
General He immediately replied: "Master Shang reminded you very well, these white deer have the help of a shaman, their horns are extremely hard, if a hundred white deer crash into the city wall together, I am afraid that the city wall will fall." ”
Adjutant General Ma also said: "It is very likely that these blue wolves will jump up, jump on the city wall, jump into the city, and pounce on them, with unimaginable consequences." ”
Deputy General Ma immediately said: "Command to go down, strengthen the city wall, add traps, set up a horse pit ten zhang in front of the city wall, place a horse rejection pistol at the bottom of the city wall to prevent the white deer from hitting the city wall, and deploy a wolf tooth slap on the city wall to prevent the wolf from jumping the city wall." ”
General He added: "Also, sacrifice our great killing weapon to ten thousand enemies. ”
Vice General Ma was a little surprised when he heard the 10,000 enemies, and then said: "General, there are not many enemies left, only a few, is it the last resort..."
Before he finished speaking, General He said: "Now is the last resort, bring all of them, set up catapults, wait for my orders, all aimed at the beasts, as long as they can repel and kill all the beasts, the Tatar infantry and cavalry are much easier to deal with." ”
The Tatars charged with all their might, and the royal generals were also going to do their best to deal with their final attack, and the battle was bound to be fierce.
Everything is ready, just wait for the drums of war to sound.
In addition to the whirring wind on the battlefield, you can hear the sound of breathing and heartbeat when you are quiet, I don't know if everyone is like this, the mood is both excited and heavy, and the excitement is because every duel is life and death, and you must mobilize all your energy. The heavy is because we have been invaded by foreign tribes, and once we fail, our homeland will be ruined, and our relatives will be humiliated and killed. Therefore, everyone at this time is to put life and death aside, only to do their best, pour their lives into life, drive away the foreigners, the homeland can be safe.
With a long, dull trumpet sound coming from afar, it was clear that the Tatars were about to launch a final general attack.
The 600,000-strong army moved at the same time, and gradually the footsteps became louder and louder, and a slight tremor could be felt on the city walls.
Its formation is divided into two columns, the infantry on both sides slowly advances, and the cavalry in the middle presses the formation, all holding tall yellow flags, looking imposing, like dense ants, the closer they get, the bigger they get, until they are a hundred feet away from the city wall, they have stopped.
At this time, the drums shook the sky, as if they were making pre-war deployments, and the passionate drums could arouse the ferocious beastly nature of these savages, and they all listened to them with excitement and passion, and wanted to rush in immediately and kill.
With the sound of a trumpet, the cavalry slowly moved forward alone, then leaned to the sides, and as all the cavalry leaned on either side, slowly revealing the beast behind them.
Everyone looked at it, and the dense beasts, all tall and mighty, with fangs and hooves, seemed to be eager to break out of the cage.
When General He saw it, he said: "All the soldiers listen to the order and get ready, the blue wolf and white deer will attack." ”
"The archers are ready. The order flag waved a few times, and the flag of the arrow tower not far away waved, indicating that they had received the order, and all the archers immediately drew their bows and got ready.
"The wolf's tooth slap is ready. The command flag waved again, and dozens of wolf-tooth swatting instruments tightened the iron chain, and as long as the command was given, the wolf-tooth slapper could be immediately put down, and the beast that jumped up or the person who climbed up rushed up could be rushed.
"Ten thousand enemies are ready. The command flag waved a few more times, and the three huge catapults of the inner city wall were all ready to be in place, as long as the order was given, ten thousand enemies could shoot out, and they could bombard the range of hundreds of people.
"The Urn City infantry is ready. The banner continued to wave, and the infantry in Weng City began to line up, including the infantry in the other two city gates, and once they broke through the city gates, they immediately fought them.
All preparations are in place, quietly waiting for the dash of these beasts.
Cai Die walked up to General He and said, "General He, what can I serve?"
General He slapped his forehead and said: "Hey, I almost forgot, since you are all masters of the rivers and lakes, and you are not afraid of death, you are my strange soldiers, and you will listen to my orders at critical moments." ”
In fact, General He's original intention was to understand their good intentions, but he didn't want them to die in vain, and pretended to let them deal with the enemy formation.
Cai Die seemed to see what he meant, but he just went down quietly after receiving the order, and then calculated the enemy and his camp to see if he could find a breakthrough to help him resist the enemy.
