Section 73 Xiwei (1)
In Bai Yujing, the demon subduing slave was hard to get rid of wearing leather armor, holding a big axe, looking at the towering city wall in front of him and sighing.
Right beside him, the Dharma Venerable Jingshenghui stroked his beard with his hands, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't say a word.
The towering walls erected by the previous dynasty have become a nightmare for the Manichaeans tonight.
In the beginning, the Manichaean plan was to use the master to quickly climb the city wall, find a gap to open a gate, and then the army took the opportunity to cover and kill.
However, the Mobei masters who commanded the Manichaeans really lacked experience in attacking the city, and because Xiao Daisheng broke into the palace, they lost the suddenness of the attack.
After confirming the death of the Five Extremes Guizong, Han Rui asked the Jinwu guards to light torches on the city wall that night, and the lights on all parts of the city wall were bright.
There are also archers with cloud-breaking crossbows hidden under the female wall, and as soon as someone tries to climb the city wall, they will sound the prepared bangs and gongs, and in a short time countless sharp crossbow arrows will shoot at you, and shoot you into a hedgehog.
The slaves tried twice, and many masters were damaged, so in order to preserve their strength, they did not order people to climb the city again.
The next step was to use a stupid method, it was too late for people to make a ladder, so the slave ordered people to remove the door panels of the surrounding houses as shields, and let ordinary believers hold shields as cover.
The Mobei masters approached the gate of Miyagi under the cover of the door panel, and directly cut a way with a big axe.
Although this method is stupid, our heroes in Mobei have the strength of two arms, and they want to smash the door of you southern barbarians.
Then Han Rui taught the slave a lesson.
Although the heroes of Mobei have door panels to block the strong bows and crossbows, they can't resist the Jin Wuwei on the city wall, and they really have a lot of tricks.
First of all, a greeting from the ash bottle, the ash bottle was filled with quicklime clay bottles, and they were thrown directly down from the city wall, and everything they touched was lime splashing, and they choked their noses and didn't say anything, and when they entered the eyes, it was more uncomfortable than death.
Even if you have conscious control, can you control your feet not to move, can you control yourself from being choked by lime and coughing, and your eyes from being stung by quicklime?
No, so as soon as a few gray bottles were greeted, the untrained door guards began to cough, cover their eyes and roll, and then the Jin Wuwei in the city greeted them with javelins.
The clever man immediately dropped the door and ran back, while the fool was nailed to the ground with a javelin.
After seeing the ash bottle, the demon lord with an active brain immediately ordered that all the smart people who fled back be executed, and then ordered people to make strips of cloth and sprinkle water on them, so that the heroes who besieged the city could cover them.
As for whether the lime will enter his eyes, the Demon Suppressor can't help it, after all, he can only think about it here.
The only thing that the slave is unable to get rid of is that everyone can't go back, that is, the eyes are burned by lime and blind, and they also have to hold the door panel to buy time for the Mobei masters to split the city gate.
Whoever retreats, the smart man who has just been cut down is their example.
After receiving instructions from His Holiness, the devotees had no choice but to set out again, and the more stupid ones went straight to the cloth and put on it, while the smarter ones asked for a few more cloths.
Anyway, they all rushed to the front of the city gate and lifted the door panel, and when the time came, they also blindfolded them, and it didn't matter what the demon son and demon grandson on the city tower threw at him.
It turns out that these smart people think too much.
After realizing that the Manichaeans under the city were covered with faces, the Jinwu guards on the castle tower used a second weapon.
This time it was a different kind of clay pot, filled with oil.
The oil canister shattered when it landed on the door panel, and large oil droplets splashed everywhere, and then several torches were thrown from the castle tower.
The flames rose into the air, but this light made the slave unable to escape from it.
Nu Namito has the potential to be a good commander, such as knowing how to use fear to control his motley followers, but his professional skills are still too poor.
As a religious leader and martial arts master, it is unqualified for a slave to escape the command, especially when his opponent is the experienced and well-trained Jin Wuwei, and the lack of experience will be infinitely magnified, and eventually the Manichaean believers will be put to death.
The Manichaeans did not retreat, most of them were engulfed in flames, just as they would cough when they were hit by lime, and they would be burned everywhere when they were ignited by oil, igniting more of their oil-stained companions, and the end result was that everyone bathed in the flame and embraced the light.
In the end, a few lucky and clever people chose to retreat, and then they were beheaded by the order of the slaves.
After two failed attempts, he looked at the pile of corpses and door panels under the gate on the opposite side, and fell into self-doubt.
However, after all, Nu Nan Dan has the potential of an excellent commander, and his determination and will are not so easy to be knocked down, Nu Nan Du quickly regained his fighting spirit, and he is determined to launch a third impact.
"I don't believe that they run out of lime and oil. This time I will give our men sandbags with sand in them, and if anyone is ignited by the fire, they will be hacked to death, and then the sand will be used to extinguish the fire. The slave said his clever plan to Jing Shenghui beside him, and the other party's face was as purple as a pig's liver.
Although Jing Shenghui doesn't know how to fight, he is not stupid, and he knows very well that his plan to get rid of slavery will definitely fail.
In the third assault, after the first two reactions, Jin Wuwei not only used both ash and oil bottles, but this time they also brought in a ballista, a defensive weapon that could shoot three-foot-long crossbow arrows into the door panel and nail the besieging Manichaeans directly to the ground.
"It's amazing, they all have this kind of thing. The slave bit his fingernails: "It's really incomprehensible, it seems that it can only be filled with human life." ”
Nu Nan believes that the person in charge of guarding the city gate must be Han Rui, the general who is second only to Yu Fuguo and Cheng Qili in the legendary court in martial arts, is extremely witty and calculating, so he can arrange himself to attack and defeat easily according to the art of war.
In fact, if there were one or two Uighur generals from the steppes in the Manichaean command this time, then the slaves would have known that storming the opponent's well-prepared walls without preparation would be tantamount to murder.
Conspire with the other side to murder his own soldiers.
Only when sufficient siege equipment is prepared and a suitable siege plan is laid out, the siege will become assured. If he was a novice like a slave, the Uighur generals would take him to fight a few wooden villages to practice his skills first, instead of hitting his head against Miyagi in Baiyujing.
The towering walls were a barrier to the Manichaeans without ladders and towers.
And the idea of cutting down the door with an axe can only be imagined by a genius child like Slave Hard.
The gate of Miyagi is not only extremely thick, but also interspersed with iron bars like a fence at the back. Unless the axe is a magic weapon that sharpens iron like clay, it is impossible to open the palace gate.
Above the palace, a young officer of the Jinwuwei with more than ninety of his brothers looked at the Manichaeans under the city gate, touching his beard and feeling a little confused.
Since this officer has a very low rank and martial arts, and there may not be any more appearances in the future, we will not mention his name.
"Captain, don't send a message to the general. Said one of the officers who was destined to be nameless.
Beneath the gates were the sea of Manichaeans, which gave everyone the illusion that they were in danger, and although the previous three or four waves of attacks were easily blocked by them, there was always something inexplicable that made them feel very unsafe.
It seems to be a feeling of being shrouded in some big conspiracy.
"Of course, report to General Han quickly, the Manichaeans are testing us, the brothers can stand it, please be more vigilant, the Manichaeans may be suspicious in us. ”
As he spoke, another low-ranking officer, destined to be nameless, arrived with his crossbowmen.
"Lao Wang, the general heard that you are fighting the Demon Sect very fiercely, so he asked our Lao Zhang to bring seventy brothers who are good at using the Cloud Breaking Crossbow to help you. The nameless officer tried to tell them their last names, but that was all there was to it.
Lao Wang, a real unknown officer, glanced at the city suspiciously, and then shook his head firmly at Lao Zhang: "Onslaught? There is no onslaught, it is all a suspicious strategy." ”
