Chapter 306 Blood Tu Pingxing Mansion
Chapter 106 Blood Tu Pingxing Mansion (Middle)
Several people also quickly turned to look south, but saw that on the horizon, people and horses hissed, smoke and dust were rolling, and tens of thousands of people.
Lu Shenlang smiled and said, "It's just a small trick to confuse people! There are about a thousand people who come, with uneven armor and flags. Sure enough, they are all rabbles, vulnerable!"
His words were full of anger, and his voice spread from afar. The generals and soldiers of the Zhennan Army, who were originally slightly timid, were all cheered when they heard such words.
***
I have never felt that the golden autumn and September weather in Shu can also be so stuffy and suffocating.
Chen Nan, the archer, is now standing on the wall around Jinxianmen, looking nervously at the prestigious "barefoot army" opposite.
From dawn, he was found bound and found, and together with some surviving soldiers, he was tightly controlled. But it didn't take long to hear that it was General Lu's order, so he let them out and all climbed the city wall to make contributions.
Not only them, but all the available soldiers in Pingxing Mansion have been on the wall. Although almost everyone is a novice when it comes to war, the winner is because of a large number of people. In the face of those vicious "barefoot troops", they have more or less confidence in their hearts.
The "barefoot army" on the opposite side began to gather slowly in the afternoon. One, two, as expected, there are all kinds of identities in the legend, and even wear their own clothes. The mountain thief water bandits, the rebels, and the Huolian disciples look mixed colors, and the flags are also messy.
However, they have the same thing: they are all wearing red boots! The red battle boots, stepping on the feet of everyone, are like a group of devils who have just come out of the blood pool, fierce, brave and domineering!
Legend has it that every soldier who joins the barefoot army must do one thing first, which is to kill people and smear his blood on his feet to show loyalty.
I don't know if this is true. However, looking at the opposite side, even the rebels who just joined yesterday showed that kind of bloodthirsty madness, as if this is not the high and broad wall of Pingxing Mansion, but the delicious food waiting to be shared on the plate!
The "barefoot army" gradually assembled. Someone was shouting loudly, and then thousands of barefoot troops raised their weapons and shouted, "Kill!"
Chen Nan felt a tremor all over, as if the "killing" sound was like a piercing steel gun, which suddenly pierced into his body and slowly stirred in Ling Chi's fighting spirit.
Legend has it that the barefoot army is helped by immortals and is invincible; in the legend, the barefoot army is ferocious and vicious, and the resisters are unforgiving. Legend has it that the barefoot army has gathered tens of thousands of troops in a short period of time and stayed in the area of Yongzhou and Ganzhou, so it pulled all the four roads of Shuzhong South Road, Jiangnan West Road, Shu Middle East Road and Shuzhong West Road. Military power is all in Yong and Jiangxi; in the legend, the leader of the fire lotus has wings, leading more than a thousand fire lotus disciples to fly over the heavy barriers and reach the feet of Pingxing; in the legend...
Opposite, under the blood-red umbrella cover of Gongwei, it should be the master known as the "Huolian Yuanshi"? His ability to call for wind and rain and sprinkle beans to become soldiers should not be true, right?
Strangely, it's not hot, but the sweat is still swelling.
Behind him came Wu Chang's hoarse shout: "General Zhu has an order to defend the city today. Anyone who shoots ten arrows will be rewarded with one or two silver!" Those who are stained with blood with knives and guns will be rewarded with two taels of silver! Cut a barefooted head and reward ten taels of silver!"
The white silver was also carried up to the tower entering the sage gate, and the bright light made people dizzy.
Chen Nan was finally shocked. He was refreshed by such a re-appreciation and stared down at the wall.
The barefoot army didn't seem to pay attention to Pingxingfu City. They didn't even have time to make a decent siege equipment, so they came in a hurry.
The first to rush up was the rebels in Fengcheng yesterday.
Their task is to carry the earth bag equipped by the friendly army behind and throw things into the moat.
Chen Nan shouted and shot down the arrows like rain with the archers beside him.
These arrows are newly transported from the warehouse of Pingxingfu, with a large quantity and good quality. It's just that the situation of the archers is not good. Like Chen Nan, who was transferred to the government army is already the essence of the hand of the bow and arrow, and many soldiers in the Zhennan Army usually lack practice. Now in the face of the almost crazy rush of the enemy, it is difficult to grasp the timing and accuracy of shooting. Obviously, the enemy has not yet reached the range, and many arrows are urgent. The ground was launched on the airspace, and when the enemy really came to him, the arrow feathers were thin and unsustainable.
Fortunately, there were many arrows. Chen Nan mechanically filled the arrows and fired them mechanically. Looking at the Fengcheng garrison who were still in the same robe yesterday, they ran up in batches, dumped sand in batches, and fell under the bows and arrows of their people in batches.
It seems to go back to yesterday's night, the moment when he raised his bow and shot at the general of the Zhennan army.
However, Chen Nan also knows that this is different. In front of him is the enemy, who wants to attack the city and kill his own enemy.
The enemy did not even cover the army in Fengcheng. It seems to be watching them kill each other, waiting for the arrow feathers in the city to run out.
Gradually, the moat was filled with a long distance by Tubao and corpses, and the besieged Tushan also grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this time, suddenly there was a rumble of cannons. Chen Nan stopped the bow and arrow in his hand in astonishment and looked back. The single cannon placed in the corner of the city wall finally opened fire, facing the direction of the built earth mountain.
A big man in iron armor was choked by fireworks and retreated repeatedly, and he still complained, "Lao Ge, when you were in Xiangyang, you watched others play with cannons. How did you get to yourself? Isn't it like that?"
"Deng Zhan! If you don't understand, don't go up and move! Didn't you see that someone has been sent to search for the instructor of the Zhennan Army's teaching cannon in the city?!" A clear voice sounded. It was the young general who was "beautiful as a girl" that those people in black were looking for last night.
"Lao Ge, no?! You don't need it. Those bitches on the other side won't use it! Didn't you see that they also pushed the cannon up?!"
As if in response to the general's words, the barefoot army's fillers have retreated, and then officially entered the stage of artillery attack.
I don't know where the barefoot army got so many gunners. There are already many cannons that have been searched in Fengcheng. Seven-top cannons, star cannons, stone cannons, horizontal rows, and hundreds of strong crossbows assist, a stone like rain, straight to the Pingxing wall.
In an air, there was chaos on the wall where the original soldiers were dense. I don't know who shouted, "It's over! If you die, you will be rewarded!" Suddenly, everyone trembled, and everyone was in danger, rushing to the bottom of the city. For a moment, there were countless people who trampled on the crowd and died!
Chen Nan also panicked. For a moment, he didn't know what to do, but after so many years of military career, he developed the habit of obeying orders, which made him one of the few soldiers who stayed on the wall.
"Hight! Stop it all!" Yunshang shouted hoarsely, but her voice did not play any role in the noisy crowd. Instead, more and more sergeants crowded over, wrapped her, together, rushed to the narrow stone ladder, surging towards the unknown fate...
"Fight for me!" A shout came, and the sound was far and near, and also suppressed the noisy and crowded crowd.
The same words, different people say it, and it really has different effects! Yunshang sighed secretly and stood up with the people around him. Although it was a lookout, he looked up at General Lu, who was as majestic as the god under the city.
"Go back to the city wall immediately! Those who dare to leave without permission, die!"
With his resolute announcement, several soldiers who tried to sneak away quietly against the wall were pierced through the throat by a sword!
The lower city is dead, so what about staying on the wall? Only then did the soldiers notice that the enemy gunners did not seem to be professional. Those all kinds of shells were either over or close, and the shells that really landed on the wall were minimal.
The soldiers finally returned to their posts under the leadership of some non-commissioned officers; the main general Zhu Fugui also wiped away the sweat from his head and went back to continue his dispatching command; while Yunshang was relieved and watched the artillery instructors brought back by Lu Shen swaying, walked over to load the shells and began to test fire.
When Lu Shen passed by Yunshang, he said coldly, "What a trouble! Where are your guards?!"
Yunshang suffocated. Although Lu Shen obviously didn't look up to her, he had never been so rude to her face! However... I have no experience in fighting and no martial arts. It is indeed a trouble and burden to break into the city wall so boldly.
Having said that, it was said that it was a trouble in person. Yunshang was still a little unbearable. His stubborn little temper had an attack. He ignored Lu Shen and continued to stay on the wall and wander around.
At this time, the Yulin Guards were also looking for Yunshang everywhere. Just now, Yunshang gave them a list, saying that they had just got a list of enemy spies, and ordered them to deal with it immediately at all costs, and not to let other soldiers find out as much as possible, which would affect morale. Such a thing is naturally difficult for others to complete; and this work requires as soon as possible, because it is the battle between the two sides, and it may be a situation of the destruction of the city. Therefore, seeing Yunshang's resolute attitude and Deng Zhan and others around him, Kong Jie promised to disperse the Yulin Guards to assassinate the traitor everywhere.
The task was easily completed, but before they rushed back to Yunshang, the scene just happened. Kong Jie jumped up the wall with regret, completely ignored the frightful eyes of the soldiers around him, and searched for the back of Princess Wuyou in the crowd.
In fact, what does it matter to them whether the city of Pingxing is broken or not? Even if the city is broken, they are fully capable of protecting the safety of the worry-free princess.
By this time, the situation of the two sides had undergone subtle changes.
