Where is the old garden in the vast mountains--- return to the thinking side Chapter Seventy-Four: Siege
Huang Yuchen jumped off the city, walked a few steps quickly, returned to the main hall, searched left and right, but saw no trace of Li Zhong, he was in a hurry, but saw Li Zhong flashing out from a corner, Huang Yuchen saw this, immediately stepped forward, and said to Li Zhong: "Boy, where did you go?"
"I heard the noise outside, and the sound of swords and soldiers, I was afraid that something had happened, so I hid. Li Zhong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw someone coming, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on outside?" Not long after I woke up, I heard an unusual noise outside. ”
"General Li, whom I saw before, is back again. Huang Yuchen sat on the chair, motioned for Li Zhong to sit down as well, and said, "But he didn't come back by himself, and he also brought back hundreds of enemies." ”
"What? hundreds?" Li Zhong couldn't help but be amazed when he heard this, and asked, "Where did the hundreds of enemies come from? Aren't all the cottages in this area dead?"
"Not bandits. Huang Yuchen took a sip of water and said, "It's a fully armed regular army." Saying that, Huang Yuchen looked at Li Zhong and said, "Today's incident, I probably know the cause of this recent series of incidents. ”
"In the vast mountains, some people secretly train a large number of soldiers, fully armed and disciplined, afraid that they are attacking the Blue Empire and conquering cities. As for the slaughter of all the cottages in this area, it should be that this person got the Blue Empire to send people into the mountains to investigate, but he was not prepared enough, killed people, and ensured that the news could not be spread. ”
When Li Zhong heard this, his thoughts turned and he said, "Then, the enemy is ......."
Huang Yuchen nodded and said, "The person who ordered the slaughter of Qingfeng Village must be the leader of this group of sergeants." ”
Li Zhong looked at Huang Yuchen, his eyes were burning, and the flames were clearly burning in his eyes, and the hatred in Li Zhong's heart was ignited in an instant.
Seeing this, Huang Yuchen got up, grabbed Li Zhong's shoulder, and said solemnly: "Boy, it's a good thing to know the enemy, but don't act rashly, at this moment, Qingfeng Village has been surrounded by hundreds of sergeants, we still have to think about how to get out, if we don't die, how to take revenge." ”
Li Zhong gritted his teeth fiercely, nodded and said, "I know the severity, big brother, you say, what will we do later?"
"Even if the news can reach the Blue Empire, they will definitely send troops to extinguish all the rebels in the vast mountains. At this time, the first thing to do is to get out of the encirclement and pass the news of the rebellion in the vast mountains to the Blue Empire. Seeing that Li Zhong was still calm, Huang Yuchen let go of his hands and sat back again.
"Yes...... But if you are surrounded by hundreds of people, how can you get out?" Li Zhong also knew that the matter was urgent, but Qingfeng Village was originally a valley, and there was no road on three sides, and there was only one road outside the village to get out.
When Huang Yuchen heard this, he sighed slightly, and said, "Telling you this is to make you have a preparation in your heart." Whether I can get out of the encirclement later, I am not absolutely sure. Food is scarce in the cottage, and it is impossible to garrison it for a long time, if it takes a long time, the enemy reinforcements arrive, and there is no life. For the time being, he can only defend first, and with only the dozens of sergeants brought by Uncle Li, if he wants to forcibly break through, he is undoubtedly a fool's dream. ”
When Li Zhong heard this, he lowered his head, not knowing what to think. Seeing this, Huang Yuchen gently patted Li Zhong on the shoulder and said, "You stay in the house for a long time, for the time being, don't come out, the swords outside have no eyes, don't hurt yourself." Saying that, Huang Yuchen raised his legs and was about to walk out, wanting to see what Li Hui was doing, but Li Zhong pulled his sleeve and looked down, but Li Zhong was looking at Huang Yuchen with burning eyes.
"I went out with my eldest brother, and the enemy was right in front of me, always hiding, when would I get revenge. Saying that, Li Zhong also stood up, smiled at Huang Yuchen, and said, "Big brother, don't worry about me, at the critical moment, I will definitely run for my life." ”
When Huang Yuchen saw Li Zhong's state, he also smiled slightly, and his heart was slightly relieved. In recent days, Li Zhong has experienced several ups and downs, and in the face of the crisis in front of him at this moment, he is not like a headless fly before. Thinking like this, he took Li Zhong's arm, walked out of the door, and the moment he went out, Li Zhong grabbed the big knife placed at the door and carried it on his shoulder.
The two walked out of the door, but saw that at the city gate, a group of soldiers were strengthening the city gate, and the things that could be used in the village were basically used, and even a large stone used to dry fur in Qingfeng Village was carried away by the sergeant and stacked in front of the mountain gate.
In the other corner of the cottage, I saw more than 20 sergeants, who were leaning against the rock wall of Qingfeng Village at the moment, bowing their heads and dozing. Seeing this, Huang Yuchen was quite puzzled in his heart, but after thinking about it, he understood it again. This group of sergeants came out with Li Hui, I am afraid that even now, I have not had a good rest, and after several fierce battles before, if I don't take turns to trim and forcibly go up, I am afraid that I will not use the enemy to attack, and I will mess up my position first.
Huang Yuchen pulled Li Zhong and walked straight to the gate of Qingfeng Wall, at this moment Li Hui was leaning on a wooden stake, closing his eyes and recuperating. At the head of the city, except for a few sergeants who were looking out, the rest of the sergeants were all closing their eyes and recuperating.
On the left and right, there are piles of bows and crossbows used for defense, stones, and even water tanks in Qingfeng Village.
Huang Yuchen did not step forward to disturb Li Hui, but looked out, as far as the eye could see, except for a tomb, there were full of enemy sergeants. Roughly calculated, there should be no less than 400 people.
At the forefront, a platoon of sergeants held small shields they carried with them, and rushed in the direction of the city, making a slight defense. The sergeant behind him, but waved the blade in his hand, cut down a few towering trees behind him, and several enemy soldiers surrounded a tree, not knowing what was being made.
Huang Yuchen's eyes narrowed slightly, the noon sun was dazzling, a small white shield, reflecting by the sun, facing the city, making people unable to see what the enemy was doing.
Li Zhong set up a tent with his hand and looked forward for a long time, but he couldn't see why, he could only distinguish the color of the other party's armor, all bright silver, the sun was shining.
"Big brother, what are they doing?" Li Zhong couldn't help but look back and ask Huang Yuchen.
"Use trees to make siege weapons. Huang Yuchen said: "Qingfeng Village is in a dangerous terrain, even if they have large siege equipment, they can't transport it in, so they can only build it on the spot." ”
"If they had done it, wouldn't it be bad? Li Zhong was shocked when he heard this. Huang Yuchen also frowned, but there was no way to go at this time, Qingfeng Village did not have large weapons, the bows and crossbows brought by these sergeants were not strong enough, the range was not enough, and they could not pose a threat to the enemy, Huang Yuchen thought about it, but he couldn't think of a way.
"Little Brother Mo is worried. Just when Huang Yuchen was worried, Li Hui suddenly said in a low voice: "The other party is nothing more than making some siege equipment, such as city vehicles and ladders, and there are still ways to deal with such equipment." ”
When Huang Yuchen heard this, he looked back at Li Hui, but Li Hui leaned on the stake and did not open his eyes, seeing that he was relaxed and comfortable at the moment, and he did not look helpless at all because he was besieged by the army.
"I don't know uncle, what are the countermeasures?" Huang Yuchen saw Li Hui's appearance, and his heart was slightly relieved. Although he was born into a military family, he has never been on the battlefield, let alone this kind of siege battle, which he knows very little.
Li Hui didn't speak, just pointed behind him, Huang Yuchen looked in the direction Li Hui pointed, but saw several sergeants assembling a heavy crossbow, and couldn't help but be a little stunned. The heavy crossbow I saw in Xiji Village before was obviously dismantled into pieces by the sergeants, but why did it appear in Qingfeng Village again at this moment?
Then I thought that when I opened from Xijizhai before, I did see a few sergeants carrying heavy crossbow arrows, the number was not very large, but it was enough. The heavy crossbow in the west and the village was only dismantled, not damaged, I think Li Hui led the team back before, and by the way, the heavy crossbow was disassembled and brought out. Unexpectedly, after the fierce battle at the airport, the sergeants under Li Hui's command lost more than half, but they still carried this heavy crossbow, which played a role at this moment.
Seeing this, Huang Yuchen was relieved, walked back again, and continued to observe the local movements.
"Little brother doesn't have to look at it, they won't attack until night. Li Hui's low voice came again: "At this time, the strong attack, the equipment is insufficient, and if you forcibly rush up, you are looking for death." In the evening, the sun shines directly on the local army, and the attack and killing are half the result. If I were their commander, I would only attack at night to have the best advantage over my own side. ”
Huang Yuchen nodded slightly, he was a newcomer on the battlefield, but he couldn't accurately analyze the changes on the battlefield. Li Hui has been on the battlefield for a long time and is calm and calm.
Huang Yuchen looked at the few sergeants who were on guard next to him, and among them, he recognized the white-faced sergeant who was about to draw a knife to kill him. This man looked tired at the moment, but his eyes were fixed on the front, and he did not slack off in the slightest. Huang Yuchen took a few steps forward, came to this person's side, and said in a low voice: "Brother, you have been tired for a long time, you can also take a rest, I will keep an eye here." ”
The sergeant looked back at Huang Yuchen slightly, sneered, and did not reply, which made Huang Yuchen very embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say.
"Little brother, let's go and rest, the sentries have all filmed their posts, and everyone has time to recuperate. Li Hui said lightly: "If there is a surprise attack outside, then we have a chance." However, from the previous few encounters, the general on the opposite side is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and before night, no one will attack. After speaking, Li Hui yawned and continued to close his eyes and recuperate.
Huang Yuchen was helpless, and looked at Li Zhong, Li Zhong was holding a big knife in one hand and setting up a tent in the other, still looking not far away, watching attentively. Huang Yuchen stepped forward and patted Li Zhong and said, "Let's go down, the enemy won't attack in a short time." After speaking, he pulled Li Zhong and walked down.
Li Zhong was holding a big knife in one hand and being pulled by Huang Yuchen in the other, he wanted to look at it for a while, but he was pulled down by Huang Yuchen without saying anything.
"Big brother, there are so many people on the other side, but we only have these dozens of sergeants, how can we win. Li Zhong was pulled down from the city by Huang Yuchen, followed behind Huang Yuchen, and asked in a low voice as he walked in the direction of the wooden house.
"These sergeants have been on the battlefield for a long time, and they have not been completely destroyed by ambushes before, but now they have a strong city, strong bows and crossbows, and they are not so easy to defeat. Huang Yuchen replied in a low voice, pointed to the heavy crossbow that was being assembled on the side, and said: "If this thing is assembled, even if the enemy makes it into a siege vehicle, I am afraid that it will not be able to attack the mountain gate." After speaking, he walked a few steps briskly and entered the wooden house, followed by Li Zhong and closed the door with his hand.
Huang Yuchen stepped into the chair, looked at Li Zhong, smiled slightly, and said, "Let's not eat yet, what else is there, take it out and have a full meal." ”
When Li Zhong heard this, he glanced at Huang Yuchen angrily, and said, "When is this, you still want to eat." So saying, he put down the broadsword and went to the back room.
"It is precisely because of the current enemy that we have to have a full meal, otherwise how can we have the strength to kill the enemy in a while?" Huang Yuchen smiled, picked up the water bowl himself, weighed a bowl of water, and drank it all.
Li Zhong took out a plate of dry food from the back room, put it on the table, and said, "You can eat it yourself, I can't eat it." Then he sat on his own side and thought about how to get out. Seeing this, Huang Yuchen stepped forward, picked up a piece of dry food, put it in his mouth, and said while eating: "Li boy, don't be too nervous, the enemy army has not yet entered the mountain gate, what are you nervous about now." ”
"Can you not be nervous. Li Zhong said angrily: "Even if you say it, the sergeants in the village have experienced a hundred battles, but they can't withstand the enemy's strength, I just looked carefully, and what I can see on the opposite side is no less than 400 people." If you really attack, can you hold it? ”
"Whether you can keep it or not is not something you should worry about. Huang Yuchen sat next to Li Zhong and said softly: "Besides, I have also thought of a way to get out." ”
When Li Zhong heard this, his eyes lit up.
