Chapter Twenty-Nine: Wine Bags and Rice Bags
The battle at the head of Huishui City is in full swing, and the trebuchets, giant arrows, crossbows, Vulcan cannons and other weapons defending the city are constantly being fired, harvesting the lives of the besiegers......
These ant-attached siegers are all female warriors, obviously the army of the Crystal Palace, they are not afraid at all, under the supervision of the elders, bravely climb the city, and vow to take Huishui City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Since the chief and deputy governors are not in the city, Huishui City is temporarily in charge of four partial generals, who are of equal status and different from each other. Basically no one obeys the other party, resulting in confusion in the command of the defenders, and there are several times when the enemy almost occupies the city, and at the moment of life and death, everyone jointly elected Zhao Yu, who is in charge of the south gate, to coordinate the overall situation, so as to barely block the enemy's offensive.
Although the garrison in the city has nearly 20,000 people, due to the lack of war for a long time, the soldiers are not well trained, the garrison is lax, and the situation of eating empty salaries abounds, resulting in the defenders' combat strength is quite limited. Although Huishui City is rich and has a lot of sharp weapons to defend the city, the soldiers who can operate these instruments are very limited, and there is even an embarrassment that no one can top after the gunners of some divine artillery are killed.
General Zhao Biao is in charge of the overall situation, but he is mediocre, in the south gate and the enemy fierce battle for nearly half an hour, only to find that the phenomenon of desertion is very serious, this is not a way, the enemy outside the city is no more than 5,000 people, but the momentum is like a rainbow, and the defenders have 20,000 people, greedy for life and afraid of death, not to mention, some people even do not even know the basic battle formation cooperation, most of these soldiers are farmers, leading the salary of the military households, but only responsible for farming, the combat power can be imagined.
Thinking of the terrible consequences of Huishui City being captured, Zhao Yu couldn't help but be upset, and even began to suspect that the other three had bad motives, or how would they shrink back and not come to the battle in person, they just sent their subordinates to die, thinking that they were using themselves as backings to resist this cauldron.
Seeing that the enemy climbed to the top of the city again, Zhao Yu didn't have time to think more, and shouted loudly at the moment: "Damn, put gold juice and hot oil, burn these stinky girls, and the soft-footed shrimp over there, and release arrows to Lao Tzu, don't fucking pee your crotch, quickly release arrows to the city, otherwise Lao Tzu will send you to the west now!"
Cutting down an enemy who had just climbed the city, Zhao Yu brandished a big knife, and supervised the battle at the head of the city with great momentum, seeing that the general was so mighty, the soldiers were a little calmer, and they were more decisive in carrying out their orders. The longbowmen kept shooting, countless sharp arrows were like a black cloud spilling down the city, constantly harvesting the lives of the climbers, the hot oil and feces were poured down the ladder, not to mention the stench, the scorching juice scalded these delicate beauties opened their skin and flesh and cried for their fathers and mothers, like hell on earth.
Fortunately, there was an advantage in numbers, this wave of the enemy's offensive was once again broken up by the defenders, Zhao Yugang breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the silver light under the city, only half a breath, he felt a cold neck, in the stunned eyes of everyone, Zhao Yu desperately wanted to cover the wild blood with his hands, but he grabbed it twice in the void and fell backwards.
And at this time, the mermaid warriors under the city shouted, and once again had an impact on the city, it was really a woman who did not let the eyebrows, in the face of such a brave enemy, the defenders at the head of the city were terrified, without the command of General Zhao, how could this battle be fought?
On the small dirt slope far away from the southern city, Elder Dong Yu was staring at the city, her brows were slightly furrowed, her heart was dripping blood, today's battle was really hard, but the elite of the Crystal Palace were all descendants, the mermaid clan was thin, and if one died, there would be one less, and in just half an hour of fighting, nearly three hundred soldiers were lost, and it seemed that the previous queen's estimate was still too optimistic.
Although Ji Jingwen condensed into ice and killed the defender with a water-based spell, it would take a lot of time to capture the south gate, followed by street fighting, and the casualties would further surge, which was chilling to think about. Elder Dong Yu secretly prayed in his heart: I hope that the queen's side will go smoothly, and then the situation will be settled tonight.
The sea in the west of Huishui City is howling in the wind, and the stormy waves are two feet high, and the cliffs here are steep, and the huge waves crash against the rocks, and the ships cannot dock at all, and the generals guarding Huishui City have never thought of building a city wall here, because no army has ever landed here.
However, there are no absolutes in the world, as Ji Dongyu thought, Ji Wushuang is now leading the elite of the two hundred mermaid clan to appear here, which even Li Ruihai didn't expect, let alone the few wine bags and rice bags in the city.
As a result, two hundred mermaid soldiers broke into the city, immediately caused chaos in the defenders, many of the soldiers in the city were temporarily recruited reserves, the three partial generals after all still have some small brains, knowing that after breaking the city, they have no good fruit to eat, so they have to endure the pain to take out part of the money to recruit the warriors who defend the city, but unfortunately these recruits are at a loss at all when they first come to the war, and when they see the enemy, they think that Huishui City has been breached, everyone is panicked, no matter how the three partial generals shout, they can't help, everyone rushes to flee for their lives, under the trampling on each other, the battle formation that has been hard to fiddle with is about to collapse。
When Ji Wushuang easily opened the gate of the southern city, the overall situation of this siege battle had been decided......
The three generals learned the news of General Zhao Yu's death from the mouth of the rout, and knew that the general trend had gone, so how dare they hesitate, and led the remnants of the defeated army to the north gate and escaped.
When they settled down, the three of them took a little command of the soldiers and found that there were only more than 3,000 people left. At the moment, the three of them sighed, but what should not have happened also happened, they were helpless, after discussion, the three of them decided to go north to Fuyang City to wait for help, and at the same time sent someone to report to Luojing, hoping that the two adults could come to the abbot as soon as possible.
Three thousand men and horses lined up in a long snake formation on the empty field and marched towards Fuyang City, and the dotted torches gathered into a long dragon, stretching for several miles, and from the air, it was quite eye-catching.
Luo Cheng was rushing to Huishui City with Yan Yan and drove the furnace, and happened to pass by here. At first glance, the two people on the stove were very puzzled, and immediately decided to go down and have a look.
When he came to a closer look, Yan Yan was surprised and inexplicable, and immediately stopped in front of the horses of the three partial generals, and asked sharply: "Ma Yue, Zhao Tiedan, Jia Chong, the three of you are not guarding Huishui City, but you actually led the army out without permission, what should you be guilty of?"
"General, general, ......"
As soon as the three of them saw the words and hatred, they immediately turned over and dismounted, they knelt on the mud and wept bitterly, and explained the matter of losing the city lightly, of course, in which they vaguely expressed how they bravely resisted the enemy, and Zhao Yu's dead ghost led more than 10,000 people but couldn't even stand a south gate, which led to a total rout, anyway, the dead people would not argue, and they brushed off all the responsibilities.
After hearing this, he couldn't believe his ears, and he had already learned in Luo Cheng that the army that the Crystal Palace could use was only a few thousand people at most, and it wouldn't cause too much trouble to Huishui City. For the sake of safety, he accompanied Luo Cheng to take a look at the situation in order to change in the future. I don't want these rice buckets to sit on ten times the number of soldiers, refuse to defend the fortified city, and don't even defend it all night, full of wine bags and rice bags!
