Chapter 36 - Hold on to the city and attack it

After the water tank was lifted, Zuo Zuo tugged the rope on the flagpole and said with a smile: "Fortunately, our ropes are all thick ropes." ”

Everyone didn't expect that at this juncture, Zuo Zuo could still laugh.

Then, Zuo Zuo took out the knife he was carrying with him and stabbed it at the water tank a few times, and soon, two holes on the left and one on the right appeared on the water tank.

Immediately afterwards, he untied the rope from the flagpole, passed through the hole in the water tank, tapped it with his hand, and said, "Drag it up!"

"Yes!"

Everyone worked together, but fortunately, the flagpole and rope were strong, and the water tank filled with water was dragged into the air.

"Let's push!"

Zuo Zuo ordered again.

Guo Han listened, didn't say a word, walked to the water tank, stood on tiptoe, and then, the rest of the soldiers also came over.

"One, two, three!"

The tank was immediately pushed outside, like a swing.

After a few swings back and forth, Zuo Zuo found the opportunity, shouted, flew up and cut the rope, and the water tank flew out of the outside of the battlements of the city wall in a huge inertia.

Immediately after, Zuo Zuo snatched a hammer from a soldier's hand, shouted, and threw it at the water tank that flew out.

"Smack"

With a loud bang, the hammer struck the water tank with unmistakable and great force, and the water tank exploded in mid-air, and a stream of water rushed out of the water tank, and the water tank also fell rapidly downward, and soon there was another loud bang.

"Alright. ”

Zuo Zuo ran to the battlements of the city wall and looked down, and saw that the fire below had been doused a lot, and the straw was on fire and then extinguished, and what came out was a thick puff of smoke.

"General Zuo deserves to be a famous general of Donglan Kingdom!" Guo Han was stimulated by the scene just now, and his voice was very excited.

Zuo Zuo shook his head and said: "That's just luck, I don't know if it can be done, but fortunately, God blesses me." ”

"Luck always favors the strong!" Guo Han said admiringly.

Then, the defenders of Qingcheng County threw burning straw down one after another, and the water tank was broken again.

Sure enough, Zuo Zuo's method had an effect, and a puff of smoke rose, and the iron-armored water beast suddenly saw a blur.

Similarly, the soldiers on top of it also felt very choked, and they had no choice but to step back and wait until the smoke cleared.

However, what they didn't expect was that Zuo Zuo brought them far more "surprises".

"Archer prepare, release the arrow!"

With the thick smoke as a cover, the sight of the soldiers on the iron-armored water beast was somewhat blocked, and a rain of arrows fell, and more than a dozen soldiers were actually hit by arrows.

The position of the arrows is mostly on the forehead, which is really not because the archers in Qingcheng County are powerful, but because there are too many arrows, so there are always some shots.

Wu Minhui and Qiao Xiang, who were watching the battle not far away, couldn't help but exclaim.

"This Zuo Zuo is worthy of being a famous general of Donglan Kingdom. ”

"Dashuai, I think it's better to let the people of the beast battalion withdraw first, the siege is not in a hurry, anyway, we have already explored the truth. Qiao Xiang suggested.

"Someone!" Wu Minhui suddenly shouted.

"Dashuai!"

"Order the soldiers of the beast battalion to withdraw. ”

"Yes!"

When Zuo Zuo saw that the people in the beast camp below the city tower began to retreat, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

“”

General Zuo, it's okay now. Guo Han said with a smile.

"No, I suppose they were just here to test it. Zuo Zuo said with a wry smile.

He looked back at the archers on the castle tower, all of them with bitter faces, because it seemed that they also felt that this battle could not be won.

Fortunately, the soldiers have no thoughts, they don't care whether they can win this battle or not, as long as the order is given, they must insist, just like Zuo Zuo now, the order he received is to guard this place for four hours, within four hours, no matter what, the city gate must not be lost.

There are a total of four city gates in Qingcheng County, which are divided into four gates, southeast, northwest and northwest, and the counterinsurgency army attacked the north gate, and the other three city gates, which also need to be detoured.

But at this time, Qiao Xiang was already making this suggestion.

"Marshal, only attack one city gate, the people of Qingcheng County will be very focused on defense, which is not conducive to us, it is better to send some soldiers and horses to attack other city gates, so that the troops of Qingcheng County can be dispersed, after all, their troops are insufficient. ”

After listening to Qiao Xiang's words, Wu Minhui said, "Which city gate is closest to this place?"

Qiao Xiang shook his head and said, "I really don't know this, I have to find someone who understands to ask." ”

Soon, Du Wei was called.

"General Du, which city gate is closest to this place?"

Du Wei thought for a moment, and then said. "Walk west along this road, and after passing a valley, there is the east gate of Qingcheng County, according to which it is only more than thirty miles. ”

"Okay, Marshal, why don't you let General Du lead a team of people to the east gate?"

Wu Minhui nodded and said, "General Du, are you willing to take on this important responsibility?"

Du Wei was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "The last general is willing!"

"Okay, General Du, I will transfer five hundred former soldiers to you, and you will go to the east gate of Qingcheng County immediately. ”

"What!" said this, and Du Wei almost fell off his horse.

"Five hundred sergeants?"

Seeing that Du Wei's tone was not quite right, Wu Minhui said with a straight face: "What, what does General Du mean that five hundred sergeants are too few?"

"Marshal, five hundred sergeants, doesn't seem to be enough?"

"How many troops are there in Qingcheng County, there is a large army here, it's okay, you can go!"

Seeing that Wu Minhui's attitude was very resolute, Du Wei had no choice but to take the order.

Soon, more than two hours passed, and during these two hours, the soldiers of the beast battalion attacked the city gate of Qingcheng County again, although the momentum was huge, but they still failed to break through the city gate.

When Qingcheng County was rich, Guo Bingzhong spent a huge amount of money to repair the city walls and gates, and it is no exaggeration to say that Qingcheng County should be the most difficult to attack among all the third-class kings of Donglan Kingdom.

Just when Wu Minhui was about to launch the next attack, suddenly, the city gate of Qingcheng County opened.

When the city gate was opened, everyone was shocked.

As soon as the gates were opened, some soldiers carrying planks rushed out, and from a distance, about four or five men carried the planks, and then put the planks on the moat, and in a short time the wide bridge was built.

"Dashuai, something is wrong!" Qiao Xiang saw this situation and quickly said.

"The enemy seems to be going to counterattack!" Ye Yunfeng also said.

"Counterattack? joke, how dare they counterattack. Wu Minhui's expression did not change in the slightest.

"Look!" At this time, Ye Yunfeng suddenly pointed ahead.
