Defending Bazhou City (2)

Those Chen soldiers who carried the giant tree were shot like hedgehogs, and the giant trees were all full of arrows, but there were still people behind them who kept charging, but they fell down again, and more Chen soldiers chose to climb the city wall, throwing iron hooks to hook the wall battlements, and climbing up.

But when they were halfway up the climb, the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty cut off the ropes, and the boiling oil kept pouring downward, and the Chen soldiers howled miserably for a while, suffering heavy casualties.

At this time, the second wave of Chen Bing's soldiers also completely evacuated to a safe position, and Xiao Yichen ordered the catapult to stop throwing stones, and the defenders of the city accelerated to kill the enemy.

The first wave of Chen soldiers was abandoned by Wu Mingche at this time, except for dying in battle, he surrendered, but even if they had the heart to surrender at this time, I am afraid that Xiao Yichen would not dare to accept it.

Those Chen soldiers had to fight to the end, some desperately climbed up, and their hands finally touched the wall, but they were cut off by the Northern Zhou soldiers on the city wall with spears and swords, and the blood at the severed hand suddenly flew fiercely, and for a while, the screams continued to sound, and their bodies fell down with a bang, falling into the camp of those Chen soldiers who were already numb.

Xiao Maha in the distance couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this, walked in front of Wu Mingche, and suddenly knelt down on one knee and said: "The last general is willing to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses to the rescue, and I hope the general will allow it!"

Wu Mingche looked at the soldiers who were about to be exhausted, his face was also full of pain, at this time he saw Xiao Maha asking for his life, he couldn't help but take a long breath and said to him: "Yuan Yin, do you think I don't want to save them, but at this time, in the face of the enemy's fierce flying stones, going up is equivalent to death!"

"However, the general ...." Xiao Maha still wanted to persuade again, but seeing that Wu Mingche had already put on a straight face, he said solemnly: "Xiao Maha listens to orders!"

Xiao Maha could only grit his teeth at this time and said, "The end will be!"

"I order you to build twenty high platforms one zhang wide and eight zhang high within two hours, five hundred paces away from the enemy city, and if you don't succeed, you will be dealt with by military law!"

After hearing this, Xiao Maha instantly understood his intentions, and shouted, "The last general will obey the order!"

At this time, the soldiers of the Chen Dynasty under the city of Naba Prefecture were basically slaughtered, and the remaining hundreds of soldiers saw that their twenty or thirty thousand companions were killed and wounded, and their previous fighting spirit had long been exhausted.

After a few rains of arrows, none of those Chen soldiers stood up, the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were all cheering when they saw this, He Ruobi and Han Baohu also came from the east and west gates, Xiao Yichen and the three of them were on the tower of the south gate, hugging each other tightly, and the other Northern Zhou soldiers were grinning when they saw this, and laughed.

He Ruobi talked about how to kill the enemy or something, and was spitting all over the place, when he suddenly saw Xiao Yichen's brows frowning, and looked at his gaze, his expression was also tight.

But seeing that the Chen army five hundred steps away on the opposite side was guarded by heavy troops, he actually began to erect a high platform on the spot, but saw that there were twenty places to build together, and after a while, they actually built a distance of more than one zhang, Han Baohu saw this, and exclaimed: "Do they want to ....?"

Xiao Yichen turned his head, nodded solemnly at him and said, "That's right, looking at this situation, they must want to build a high platform and set up a catapult on it..."

He Ruobi couldn't help but exclaim: "This, what can I do about this?"

Xiao Yichen's face also became very serious and said: "They must not be allowed to successfully erect a high platform, not to mention that when the flying stone is smashed on the head, even they can control everything that happens in the city, and the whole army will obey the order!"

"In!"

"Shoot all the remaining crossbow arrows, target the high platform that the enemy is building!"

"Yes!" The Northern Zhou soldiers on the city tower were ready one after another.

Xiao Yichen shouted: "Let me go!"

The crossbow arrows shot by the eight bull crossbows brought a burst of sound of breaking through the air, and those Chen soldiers who were building a high platform were killed by the arrows one after another.

Xiao Maha hurriedly ordered the surrounding soldiers to use thick shields to erect a barrier and continue to build a high platform.

Due to the distance and the enemy's backing defenses, those bolts could no longer do much damage to the enemy.

Xiao Yichen pulled the forty-stone iron tire bow into the shape of a full moon at this time, and the three long arrows on the string roared away, penetrating the heavy shield with a bang, and shot five Chen soldiers.

Seeing this, Xiao Maha, who was not far away, shouted loudly: "Hurry up and build a high platform, and those who dare to slack off will correct the Fa on the spot!"

"Boom, boom!ah...." Xiao Yichen's arrows were not missing, often as soon as he let go, he would take the lives of three or four or even five or six Chen soldiers, and the eight bull crossbows of the Northern Zhou Dynasty also followed his shot at the short gap, and immediately shot a large number of people, and the speed of the construction of the high platform over there almost stopped.

At this time, it was the beginning of Shen, and the soldiers on both sides were not touched from the time of Yin to this moment, but the hearts of the soldiers on both sides were filled with hatred, and they didn't feel hungry!

After a while, the eight bullbow bows and arrows of the Northern Zhou defenders had all been used up, and only Xiao Yichen was left to support alone, but with his own strength, he could not stop the concerted efforts of hundreds of thousands of troops on the opposite side, and the high platform was constantly building upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye.

During this period, He Ruobi and Han Baohu also took a ten-stone iron-tire bow, although they also shot dozens of people on the opposite side, but the rest no longer had the strength to pull the bowstring, and the two of them saw that Xiao Yichen could still pull the forty-stone iron-tire bow at this time, and their hearts were full of admiration.

Xiao Yichen tried to wrap cotton around the arrowhead, pour fire oil, and shoot towards the high platform that was constantly being built, but before the fire could ignite, it was extinguished by the surrounding Nanchen soldiers, and he only sighed in his heart.

After a while, he secretly exclaimed, "Not good!"

It turned out that he suddenly realized that the internal force of his physical strength was less than one-tenth at this time, and at this moment, he couldn't stop even if he didn't want to.

Seeing this, He Ruobi and the others hurriedly comforted: "Brother Xiao is doing his best to look at the destiny of heaven, and he can't complain about you now, or we will ?....."

Xiao Yichen suddenly intercepted his words and said, "It's not time yet..."

He Ruobi and Han Baohu glanced at each other, and the expressions on their faces darkened at first, and then burst into fearlessness.

Seeing this change in them, Xiao Yichen showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then leaned down next to the two of them and said, "The two brothers can be like this...."

The expressions on his faces were stunned after hearing this, but they saw Xiao Yichen's face and said with a serious face: "This can only be the case now, can the two brothers dare to accompany me to block it?"

Han Baohu and the two looked at each other and said, "Haha, our lives will be handed over to you!"

At that moment, He Ruobi and the others went to prepare, Xiao Yichen looked at the rising platform opposite, his face couldn't help but be as solemn as water, and clenched his fists....

At the end of the Shen Dynasty, Chen Jun's twenty high platforms that were one zhang wide and eight zhang high had been erected, and catapults had been erected on them, making people feel cold.

Wu Mingche saw that the high platform had been erected, and couldn't help but smile a little and said to Xiao Maha: "Yuanyin, you did a good job!"

Xiao Maha bowed and said: "The general has won the award, this is the result of all the soldiers working together with one heart and one mind!"

Wu Mingche couldn't help but nod when he saw that he was not arrogant or discouraged, raised his head and squinted at Nabazhou City, and suddenly ordered: "Attack!"

When the officers and men of the three armies received the order, they all roared loudly, making a loud noise, and the soldiers on the twenty high platforms gave the order and let go of the stretched straight rope.

Dozens of boulders roared towards the city of Bazhou, seeing that the city of Bazhou was about to be destroyed under the fierce flying stones, suddenly Xiao Yichen, who was standing on the city tower at this time, waved the handsome flag of the word "Xiao" in his hand!

As he waved the flag, there was also a sound of breaking the air in Bazhou City!

Then something incredible happened, I saw that many stone bullets also flew out of the city of Naba Prefecture, and with a sharp sound, they met the stone bullets that were fired from Nan Chen's side.

The stone bullets from both sides met in the sky two hundred meters away from Bazhou City, and they erupted with a loud noise, and they all turned into rubble and fell.

The soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty on the tower of the city couldn't help but cheer when they saw that they had actually blocked the enemy's fierce flying stones! while Chen Jun had a ghostly expression, and those troops who wanted to charge behind the flying stones had no choice but to stagnate.

It turned out that he had just instructed He Ruobi and the two of them to hurry up and build a high platform catapult, the high platform does not need to be four feet high, but the more catapults, the better, Han Baohu and the two of them rushed to do it after hearing this, at this time there were one hundred and twenty catapults in the city, coupled with Xiao Yichen's accurate eyesight, they could always block the flying stone bullets, this move can be said to be unprecedented and unprecedented, and it will definitely be famous in history!

It turned out that Wu Mingche wanted to secretly dig tunnels to attack the city, but Xiao Yichen had already expected it, he ordered the troops to dig dozens of deep wells in four directions in the city, and there were deaf people waiting in turn.

Wu Mingche saw that the excavation of the tunnel could not succeed, so he thought of another way, thinking that dozens of catapults on this high platform would definitely be able to break the enemy's city walls and military hearts, although he knew that the other party actually made a strange move, he was really indignant in his heart.

At this time, I saw Wu Mingche jumping up in anger, he didn't have the demeanor of a Confucian general at all, and shouted: "The soldiers of the three armies obey the order, and they all go to find me a big stone, I don't believe that I can't do the yellow-mouthed kid on the other side!"

"Yes!" Nan Chen's officers and soldiers of the three armies responded to the call, and all went to look for stones, not to mention the strength of the many people, these more than 400,000 people can drown one person even if they spit on a mouthful of spit, at this time they all went to the vicinity to look for the big stones, it was really a snake and ant misfortune, tigers and leopards avoided it, and after a while, the stones they found were about to pile up into a hill.

So the two sides started a unique contest, and the two sides fought until the end of the unitary time, until Nan Chen's side could no longer find a suitable stone nearby as a flying stone.

And most of the buildings in the city on Xiao Yichen's side were demolished and used as missiles, and a "city wall" more than two zhang high and one mile long appeared among them at this time, this city wall was the result of the two of them shooting flying stones at each other, you can imagine how fierce the battle was!

Xiao Yichen and Han Baohu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw that the enemy army had finally stopped.

At this time, the surviving Northern Zhou soldiers all cheered and hugged each other in twos and threes, and some of them couldn't cry.

Xiao Yichen looked up at the sky, and saw that the stars and moon were hidden in the sky at this time, and it was as dark as ink and couldn't help but nod at Han Baohu and the two, and the two of them really breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this....

After another half an hour, there was a sudden shouting and killing sound in the distance, but it was the Nanchen army that launched a fierce charge, Wu Mingche was determined to break through Bazhou City, and after catching Xiao Yichen, he would definitely wash away his shame with a thousand knives, so this time he said that he would not retreat again, Xiao Yichen, can he resist it?

The "city wall" that lay between them was quickly pushed down by the charging Nanchen army, the first team actually used cavalry, and the speed was indeed fast enough, and in the blink of an eye, it had already been pushed to the moat of Bazhou City, and those Nanchen knights bent their bows and arrows on the city wall and shot at the Northern Zhou soldiers on the city wall.

Some of those bows and arrows hit the "Northern Zhou soldiers" on the city wall, and under the dark night sky, they were not seen wailing, and those cavalrymen couldn't help but have admiration in their hearts, and they all secretly praised in their hearts, "What a good man!"

Although they admired it in their hearts, the speed of their hands did not slow down, and the feathered arrows whistled through them intensively, and the ropes of the drawbridge were broken, and the drawbridge was lowered, and they rushed forward first, and rushed towards the heavy gate.

Wu Mingche saw that the first wave of soldiers had arrived under the city gate, and he was happy at first, but when he looked up, he saw that the city of Nabazhou was silent, and his heart couldn't help but secretly wonder!

Bang! The tall gate of Bazhou City was smashed, and the soldiers of Nan Chen followed into the city, but when they saw that the city was as dark as ink, there was no light, and they couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Xiao Maha rode a horse at this time, and slowly came to Wu Mingche's side and replied: "General Qiqi, when our army entered the city, we found that the residents of the city were all imprisoned in a wide cellar, but there was no trace of the enemy."

Wu Mingche's face turned pale, and he squeezed from between his teeth and said, "Could it be that they can't grow wings!"

Xiao Maha showed a hint of shame on his face and said, "This.... The Admiral found many tunnels dug by the enemy in the city, and it is estimated that they had evacuated through them. ”

Wu Mingche glanced at him lightly and said, "Oh! Do you know where they evacuated from?"

Xiao Maha couldn't help but hang his head and said, "Please also ask the general to punish him!"

Wu Mingche helped him up and said, "Okay, it's no wonder you, let's tell the truth!"

"Yes, the last general sent someone down to check, but, but when those tunnels were less than three hundred paces, the clues were broken. ”

"How?"

"Those tunnels have collapsed, and the last general, the last general, the last general doesn't know where to catch up. After Xiao Maha finished speaking, he lowered his head in shame.

After Wu Mingche heard this, a trace of indignation flashed on his face, and then he said fiercely: "Okay, you Xiao Yichen, you can get out of the way, but I will definitely find you, by then, hum!"

At that moment, Wu Mingche sent troops to pacify the residents of the city, borrowed grain from nearby counties, and sent many secret agents to find out Xiao Yichen's whereabouts....

I don't know where Xiao Yichen, He Ruobi and other 5,000 soldiers are now, can they escape from Wu Mingche's pursuit?
