Magical archery
Kesi may still be remembering the scene of the fight with Chi Zhongtian just now, so he was in a very bad mood for a while, and after hearing Xisoari's words, he said in an unkind tone: "Don't worry, general, just those people, I stand here and let them shoot with arrows, and they can't shoot me!"
In his words, he didn't seem to pay attention to the defenders on the castle tower at all.
It's no wonder, after all, some time ago, the defenders of Lijiang City were mainly driven away and scared, and the arrows that fell were all picked up by the enemy.
"Before, I heard the first king tell me about borrowing arrows from a straw boat, and I really regarded Kong Ming as a god at that time, but now I know that he is nothing, you look at me, there is no need to put those formations at all, send a few people to hang around, and immediately cut a large number of arrows, hahaha!"
At this time, Sisoari suddenly called Le Mazagon and asked, "Is there a move in the city?" β
Lemazagon nodded and said, "Don't worry, Sect Master, I already saw some black smoke rushing into the air just now, presumably they have already started to set fires." β
"So, will the defenders of the city let people put out the fire?"
"Absolutely, if the dog emperor's dog son is not here, maybe not, but as long as he is there, those officers and soldiers will definitely be sent by him to fight the fire. β
As if Lemazagon was sure in his heart, he spoke with convincing words.
"Well, after the siege starts in a while, you must give me all your might, so that they can't raise their heads, don't be afraid of the dead, in addition, let a few of them release arrows with the dark feather guards, remember, there is nothing else, just one, give me the defenders on the city tower, don't dare to raise their heads!"
As soon as Sisoari's voice fell, Ke Si nodded heavily, and then said, "General, please wait here for our good news!"
"General Kesi, the ancestors of our Nanzhang are all blessed by heaven, this battle can only succeed, not fail!"
"Don't worry, the general, everyone listens to the order and goes all out to attack the city!"
With Kesi's loud shout, the war finally began.
At this time, the siege vehicle had stopped, and it was only about a few dozen steps away from the city gate.
Lu Gui, who was standing on the city tower, had already received a return gift, and the southern Xinjiang pacification army had gathered more than 6,000 people in the city at this moment, all of them were on standby near the city gate, ready to attack at any time.
It's just that at this time, Lu Gui looked at the siege vehicle outside and began to mumble in his heart.
Obviously, this kind of siege vehicle, unlike an ordinary one, is not the same.
Generally speaking, ordinary siege vehicles are not very high, the top is spire-shaped, very strong, and the bottom is four to six wheels, the outside is generally covered with a layer of sheepskin, in order to play a protective role, the inside of the car is hung with iron chains a thick log, the log has metal heads at both ends, once close to the city gate, often a dozen strokes can smash the city gate open.
But the siege vehicle in front of him was not only taller than the ordinary, but also had eight wheels underneath, and the outside was not covered with sheepskin at all, but an iron sheet that shone with a cold light.
In this way, the defensive power of this siege vehicle has been greatly increased, and Lu Gui thought in his heart that he might really have to disobey a military order and go out of the city to face the battle.
"Archer, prepare!" With Lu Gui's shout, hundreds of enemy troops outside the city suddenly rushed out of the crowd, their clothes were all sorted, but most of them did not look like people from the Central Plains.
The weapons in the hands of these people are very simple, mostly sticks, and they run in a disorderly manner.
Lu Gui looked at the rabble in front of him, but his heart was not relaxed at all.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Anyway, shoot for a while.
Soon, the archers on the castle tower aimed at the people in front of them, pulled the bowstring fiercely, and shot the arrows.
This time, the archers that Lu Gui arranged here were all very accurate, and they didn't dare to say that they were able to penetrate Yang in a hundred steps, at least they were extremely accurate.
Therefore, as soon as the arrow feathers fell, dozens of people fell to the ground.
Before the archers had time to rejoice, suddenly, dozens of men dressed in black rushed out of the enemy army, they were light and agile, and in the process of running, they had already taken their bows and arrows from their backs and aimed them at the tower.
Lu Gui measured the distance and couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
At this distance, it is normal to drop arrows from the castle tower.
But if you go from the bottom up, it's a big difference.
As we all know, you throw a stone from above, and you throw a stone from below, and the effort is not at all the same.
Lu Gui didn't believe it, at such a distance, he couldn't be sure to shoot this distance from the city tower, let alone from the bottom up.
However, just a moment later, Lu Gui was overshadowed.
The arrows in the hands of the dozens of black-clothed men seemed to be shot straight at the people on the city tower, not only fast, but also amazingly powerful, just a few blinks of an eye, the arrows were already imminent.
"Be careful!"
Lu Gui had been on the battlefield for a long time, reacted quickly, and quickly pulled the two people who were close to him, then took a few steps back and squatted down.
However, others were not so lucky.
The archers were still silent in the thrill of having just shot many people below, and they were convinced that at that distance, the enemy's arrows would not be able to hit, so they were defenseless.
By the time they reacted, it was time for an arrow to stick in their heads.
And there stood at the front of the gate, thirty-three men in all.
In addition to LΓΌ Gui, there were thirty-two archers.
At this time, except for Lu Gui and the two people he tore apart, the other thirty people all had an arrow stuck in their heads, and if you look closely, you will find that they are all in the middle of the brain.
Moreover, there were no extra arrows, only three arrows were stuck in the pillars of the castle tower at the moment.
"Boom" swept the ground, and all thirty archers opened their eyes wide and fell.
Lu Gui was protecting the two archers with his arms at this time, and he didn't raise his head, but he quickly raised his head when he heard that the movement was wrong.
It didn't matter what it looked like, it almost made him vomit blood.
"General be careful!"
Some of the archers in the back row were sharp-eyed, and when they saw another arrow flying in the distance, they hurriedly shouted.
In an instant, countless arrows galloped from below, and the sound of breaking the air resounded around, and the people on the city tower, including those young and middle-aged, were already lying in the city wall, but in this way, there were also unlucky.
