372 Field Rose
A ladder was built on the city wall, and arrows rained down from the top of the city. The thieves held their shields high, bent their bodies, and climbed up the ladder like a bunch of ants. Behind, teams of archers tried their best They shot at the officers and soldiers on the city wall, and tried their best to cover their siege.
The fork poles and rams showed their talents. From time to time, officers and soldiers saw a ladder being turned over with a fork pole, and the thieves clinging to it screamed and fell to the ground. Or a few soldiers rushed together holding the ram, and the ladder collapsed from it. The thieves howled and fell into the deep ditch below, like a group of ants being bounced off. But the officers and soldiers who charged ahead were inevitably shot by random arrows and fell to the ground one after another.
Climbing up the city along the ladder is called ant-possession. Their body and movements are really like ants, and their lives are no doubt as humble as ants. In this madness of human nature, the value of life has long since disappeared, and fresh lives are being harvested cheaply.
People gather like ants, swords and swords, shouting and killing.
The trebuchet was destroyed, and the thieves who attacked the city were ingenious. They carried the 'smoke bombs' processed by those local methods with them, and after lighting them, they climbed the ladder and threw them on the city wall. These thieves really had some talent for wreaking havoc, the city was filled with black smoke, pungent and choking, and the smoke made the guards and soldiers tearful. In mid-June, the weather was extremely hot, and there was no wind. The willow leaves were drooping weakly, and the smoke attack was very effective.
Arrows shuttled continuously in the air, interweaving into a dense net, constantly harvesting human lives. The attacking soldiers held knives and shields, braving the rolling logs, stones and arrows that flew down from time to time. The arrow fell down. There is nothing fancy about this kind of offensive and defensive battle, it is completely a real struggle, fighting for life and courage, whoever can't survive first.
This time, it seemed that Liu Liuxian couldn't make it through, and the huge casualties gave him a lot of psychological pressure. The other two armies attacked the other two city gates respectively, and they also received the same crazy counterattack. The weapons of the officers and soldiers were superior to him, but this time the counterattack seemed to be more resolute and stronger than the previous two times. Liu Six began to think about quitting.
Yang Ling noticed that the enemy's offensive was weakening, so he smiled at Song Xiaoai and said, "Those who divide their troops to defend themselves have no intention of a decisive battle. Those who take the initiative to challenge will never give their all in the first battle. Liu Liu is about to retreat."
Song Xiaoai had no doubts at all, and immediately nodded her head yes, which made Yang Ling unable to perform, and felt quite itchy for a while.
Sure enough, with the order of the Liuliu Army, the voice of shouting and charging gradually weakened, and the thieves left pieces of corpses and began to retreat gradually, retreating to the post road in the distance. The defenders at the top of the city were greatly encouraged, the thieves had withdrawn from their arrows, and the cannons at the top of the city were still roaring, taking the opportunity to hunt for more lives.
Commander Luo was very happy with his complete victory. Although he defeated the thieves' attacks several times and won the victory, he was very nervous. The soldiers in his hands had their own plans, and he couldn't concentrate on commanding at all. In combat, in order to dispatch smoothly and cooperate with each other, he had to smile and chat with the generals of several armies with complicated origins. This was the first time he fought so heartily and happily.
The gates of the city were opened, the drawbridge was lowered, and the soldiers were ordered to quickly remove obstacles such as the burnt ramming vehicles at the gates, and remove the horse-repelling guns arranged by the thieves. Go, they were wearing soft heart armor, holding sharp spears and sabers in their hands, chasing Liu Liu's defeated army with murderous intent.
Liu Liu had no intention of fighting at this time, what he wanted was the city of Dezhou, not the two thousand cavalry who came to take advantage of the victory. However, most of his team is cavalry, and he is not afraid of the two thousand cavalry in the city. The result of the appearance of these two thousand cavalry is only to speed up their departure. The cavalry is the main force, and their mobility is no worse than them. If they are suddenly robbed by thieves and cut off their way back, then their entire army will be wiped out.
Two thousand cavalry drove the thieves out for a period of time and then circled their horses back. They stood at the corner of the post road to monitor the movements of Liu Liu's army, lest they kill the carbine. The defenders in the city began to deal with the aftermath of the battle, rescuing the wounded, repairing the city walls, gathering weapons, and some people happily left the city to pick up knives and guns, clean the battlefield, and clean up the corpses.
It is June now, and the weather is extremely hot. If the corpses are not disposed of properly, there will be so many people gathered in the city. Once the plague spreads, it will cause a catastrophe. The corpses of the thieves were all dragged to a secluded place in the forest, and several large pits were dug. The officers and soldiers stripped the thieves naked and threw them into the pits one by one like dead dogs, including some who were still alive. Yes, missing arms and legs, screaming and moaning, and then mercilessly dug the soil to bury it, and stepped on it firmly.
? In troubled times, human lives are worthless, and no one cares about their life and death, especially those who have just returned.I'm afraid, I'm busy looking for the murderer all day long, and then become the murderer. Adni is ignored, and she is alone as if she has been abandoned by the whole world again. That feeling of loneliness is really more terrifying than death.
Happiness was gained and then lost, and then lost and regained. This kind of process of great sorrow and great joy, and then great sorrow and great joy again made this strong girl's heart weak, and she became the only man she could love and rely on for life in Daming , she even misses Cheng Qiyun and Ma Lian'er more than Cheng Qiyun and Ma Lian'er during those days in the south.
Ma Lian'er at least has children, and Cheng Qiyun has at least a career. Without Yang Ling, what else does she have in Daming as a foreign woman? Love can only be her everything.
Ya Li Adeni has a pair of beautiful eyes, tenderness like water, and gently wraps around Yang Ling's body. This man is the only sustenance in her feelings and the closest man in the world of her life.
Qiao Sihai yelled: "Uh? Why is she a perverted woman? Who is this bitch? Why are you still wearing a military uniform?"
After he finished speaking, he looked around, and saw that from Luo Shiquan down, all the civil servants and military officers looked at him like an idiot, only glanced at him from the corner of their eyes, and pointed the tip of their noses at the other side.
Qiao Sihai scratched his scalp in wonder, rolled his eyes and said, "What's wrong with me?"
Left and right Paoze turned his head away, with an expression of not knowing him.
Yang Ling was also embarrassed for a moment. He had just preached to others about the seventeenth and fifty-fourth cut, talking about military law and military law, but now his woman ran to the front of the two armies. I can't make it through either.
With an idea, he thought of Adeni as the ambassador and counselor of the Fujian Arms Bureau. Because she is proficient in firearms, Mr. Zheng, a firearms expert at the Fujian Arms Bureau, favored her very much, so after she went to Jiangnan, Mr. Zheng did not let her go. She resigned from this position, so she might as well deal with it first.
Yang Ling coughed twice, and said in a drawn-out voice, "This, this girl Adni is the ambassador counselor of the Fujian Armaments Bureau. Great feat."
"Oh", all the officials suddenly realized.
"Yang!" Adni's tears had overflowed her eye sockets, she sighed, and suddenly plunged into Yang Ling's arms, hugging his waist tightly.
"Uh", Yang Ling subconsciously hugged her strong and round slender waist. The officials on the left and right saw this shocking and scandalous act, and their eyes almost fell out.
Yang Ling laughed dryly, and said, "This is a Western etiquette, a kind of Western etiquette."
"Oh", the officials continued to suddenly realize.
"Sir, you are worried about death."
", ahem, it's the Duke!" Yang Ling moaned in a low voice.
"Yeah, Mr. Guo!" Adni followed suit and immediately changed her words.
Yang Ling's brow was white with sweat, and he stammered and explained: "She wants to say the Duke of the State, a Westerner. She doesn't understand Chinese, and she doesn't know the address!"
