Volume 4 Stormy Jiangnan Chapter 58 Battle with Xiangyang (6)
The North City Gate.
Following the sound of arrows, many warships on the wide water outside the city immediately moved forward together, heading towards the city. In the middle of the many warships, a huge building ship stood out from the crowd like a strong man covering the sky. On the bow deck There were many black soldiers standing there. Three rows of square shields above and below the front formed a huge shield wall, covering the bow of the ship and blocking arrows and flying stones on the city wall.
When he saw this building boat, Qiu Biao, who was patrolling and resting at the north gate, was immediately shocked. Although the boat had not yet approached the city wall, its indomitable and overwhelming momentum made all the soldiers stationed on the city wall feel frightened. Looking from a distance, the spire of the Flying Bird Room on the upper floor of the three-story ship has reached the height of the city wall. Even though no one can get on the spire, the rebel soldiers standing on the third deck no longer need any help. With the long hanging ladder, you only need to take a short and light ladder, and you can almost easily jump to the top of the city.
Peng
As soon as the huge building ship entered the shooting range, two huge trebuchets on the corner platform at the head of the city launched an attack. The huge flying rocks were thrown high, drawing a slanting arc, and hit the water hard. One of the warships landed with a rumble on the deck of a stern boat in the middle of the river. The huge impact immediately penetrated the deck, and a hole was made in the side hull by the edges of the stone. The river water suddenly poured in. , in the blink of an eye, half of the hull of the warship sank into the water, and the rebels above jumped into the water one after another, scrambling to escape
Another huge flying stone missed its target and fell diagonally in the middle of the river, getting closer and closer to the tall boat. Amidst the huge slapping sound, water waves soared into the sky, although it did not hit the tall boat. , but such momentum also caused the rebel soldiers to panic. After turning the steering wheel slightly and adjusting the angle, the speed of the building ship began to gradually increase, and soon it left the surrounding warships and small boats, getting closer and closer to the city gate.
At the same time, the small warships in the rear also accelerated suddenly, and quickly followed up. In front of all the warships, behind the shield wall or canopy, there was a line of string-controlling men with bows and arrows, just waiting to enter the shooting range. , and a round of volleys began.
On the top of the city, whether it was a catapult, a four-man crossbow, a parasol tree, an umbrella axe, an arrow stack, a mace, or a kerosene tank there were already ready soldiers and soldiers standing next to them. The strong men came, and on the wall of the North City Gate, countless soldiers who had experienced blood and fire had already strung their bows, unsheathed their swords, and stared at the city below like crucian carp crossing the river. The rebels who came just waited for the commander's order to start a desperate fight.
Boom boom
Two more huge flying rocks fell into the rebel fleet. With a huge impact, not only the peak of the bird's room in the center of one of the ships was knocked down, but also half of the bird's room collapsed, and even the flying hut below collapsed. The rebels on the ship, whose eaves were missing, shouted in unison, and dozens of people quickly poured out of the flying house, running to the rear of the ship to escape. Another flying rock sank another small boat. Dozens of people on the warship were killed or injured, and they quickly jumped into the water to change boats.
On the top of the city, countless people were counting their breaths silently in their hearts, calculating the chances of the rebels attacking the city. At the current speed of the building, with at most ten breaths left, the real battle is about to begin.
Boom
The front end of the building ship's hull, wrapped with sharp iron horns, suddenly hit the city wall. The entire Xiangyang City seemed to be shaking. Before the ship could stop, another round of arrows rained down from both sides. , but because the front end of the building ship was already close to the Xiangyang city wall, the distance was too close, and the casualties caused were minimal. Then, on the deck of the bow, more than ten strong soldiers carried several short ladders, braved flying arrows, flying stones and powerful crossbow arrows, and rushed towards the city wall quickly.
As soon as they arrived at the city, several shadows fell over their heads in an instant. The soldiers in the distance screamed in surprise, but the rebels who had just rushed to the city had no time to dodge. When they looked up, they saw sharp and shining spikes all over their eyes. Dozens of rebel soldiers serving as vanguards were densely smashed down. Even the short ladders did not reach the city wall, but they were all smashed by the huge wolf fangs. Strong, thick, long and sharp iron nails followed the gaps in the armor. It pierced into the body, causing a scream of terror
A rebel who was at the front and reacted the fastest rolled out of the wolf fang. When he turned his head, everyone saw that his face was covered with honeycomb-shaped blood pits, and he was even covered in thorns. The iron nails carved out streaks of flesh on his face, but there was only a deep blood hole left over his left eye, with red and white liquid flowing continuously. The eyeball was dragged under the man's cheek. , but he acted as if he didn't know, he just stretched out his hands and scratched his face.
The war has just begun, but it is so tragic
But no one could hesitate or delay too much at this time. Just in the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred people rushed up from behind and the first round of blood fellThe corpse did not scare anyone. On the contrary, after being stimulated by the blood, each of the rebels behind seemed to have forgotten life and death in an instant. A man wearing a ** hat on his head and without any armor roared. , leading a team of 50 rebels, they rushed to the city in an instant. With a raise of their arms, the short ladder was already erected on the top of the city. This man pressed the middle part of the short ladder with one hand, stepped on the two handrails of the short ladder with his legs in the air, and jumped up to the top of the city in just two clicks.
Poof
A short arrow flew from the darkness and was nailed to the man's right arm. A stream of blood suddenly turned half of his short brown face red. The man stared with red eyes as if nothing had happened, and suddenly made a slash with a long knife in his hand. In a semicircle, the three guards who had just rushed in front of him suddenly had two heads flying into the sky.
A strong wind sounded, and a spear poked out from the guard camp at the top of the city like a poisonous dragon, and went straight to the rebel man's throat. The rebel man suddenly leaned back, his two feet firmly nailed to the ground, and his whole body was shaking. He folded it in half, and at the same time swung the long knife diagonally in his hand. When the blades of the blades met with the spear shafts, the spearhead paused slightly, but the blade did not stop. The rebel man suddenly stood up, his ape arm moved, and the long knife in his hand flew out in an instant. He stabbed a guard through the chest.
More than a dozen spear blades were chopped off. The man rolled on the spot and quickly came to a guard. He suddenly grabbed the guard's ankles with both hands and suddenly lifted him up and slammed him to the ground. Without even looking at the guard, he snatched the spear from the guard's hand and held it in front of him to block it, instantly resolving the crisis.
After a brief movement of the man, dozens of rebels suddenly swarmed up the short ladder. Everyone's eyes were red, and they were like crazy tigers, waving their long knives and charging towards the city wall.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
A huge umbrella ax with three blades suddenly fell from the air. Just after running a few steps, the nearly ten rebels at the front were caught off guard and were cut in half by the heavy umbrella ax. In this hell on earth, all you can see are broken arms, legs and feet, and some people were cut off in the middle by the huge ax blade but did not immediately lose their breath. Countless blood and internal organs gushed out from half of their bodies, but they were still struggling. Howling miserably while crawling to the side
Peng
Another round of rebel soldiers who rushed up climbed onto the city wall, and a shadow of an ax suddenly fell. The rebels all retreated back, but their feet were suddenly suspended in the air. A sound of slapping on the water surface was heard one after another, and more than a dozen people were heard. Fell into the moat
The feathered arrows in the sky are still flying from time to time. Now the two armies have begun to contact. Although there is no large-scale arrow rain ahead, there are still many people hiding in the dark and firing cold arrows. From time to time, the defenders at the top of the city and the people participating in the defense were shot down by cold arrows, and their bodies fell to the bottom of the city
Whoops
The wind is blowing again
The tiger-like rebel man from before killed three more people in the blink of an eye. Just as he was about to move forward, he unexpectedly received another spear attack from his left rib, which was both poisonous and accurate. The rebel man quickly withdrew the hilt of the knife in front of him. Blocked it. The huge power of Chang Langlang came through the blade of the blade, making the rebel man's right arm, which had been injured by the arrow, sore and numb. The blood that had been flowing all the time became even faster. The rebel man raised his eyes and looked forward, only to see In front of dozens of guards, a commander leading the team was holding a spear and watching eagerly.
"kill"
Qiu Biao shouted loudly, and dozens of guards behind him immediately joined the battle group like tigers emerging from the mountain. At the same time, the blood-stained spear in Qiu Biao's palm shook in the air and once again entangled the brave rebel man. From the beginning of the war to now, Qiu Biao has fought with this man two or three times, both covertly and covertly. Qiu Biao is a man who can fight, and he has to admire the bravery of this rebel. With his ability, he was at least a leader among the rebels. He watched two commanders die one after another under the knife of this rebel man, and there were still rebels pouring up on the short ladder at the top of the city. , Qiu Biao, if he doesn't contain the opponent's offensive at this time, the north gate is afraid that it will be over. So Qiu Biao quickly put down his original plan, shouted and officially joined the battle group.
The sword is like a tiger, the spear is like a poisonous dragon
The two men danced their swords and spears in an airtight manner. Whether there were rebels or guards around them, they all consciously moved away and silently made a small space. Although Qiu Biao danced vigorously with his spear, he was not greedy for advancement and just clung to the rebel leader. On the contrary, the man was tightly entangled by Qiu Biao's spear. After beating him for a while, he became impatient. However, after the initial burst of enthusiasm, the momentum of the rebel man was gradually suppressed by Qiu Biao. The arrow wound on one right arm had broken into several cracks due to the constant exertion. Blood was flowing down the arm. As he swung the knife, blood drops continued to fly into the air.
As Qiu Biao was beating, he suddenly let out a loud roar. The spear he had been fighting with suddenly opened and closed. As he swung it, the cold wind hit his face. The force was strong and the momentum was extraordinary. The rebel man couldn't resist at once, and his right arm was bleeding. As noted, it gradually dropped.Then, seeing no enemy, the man quickly handed the knife to his left hand, holding on with all his strength. However, Qiu Biao would never miss this opportunity again. The spear flickered, and the man swung the knife with his left arm to block it, but unexpectedly, the tip of Qiu Biao's spear suddenly returned. He retracted, stretched out again, and was piercing the arrow wound on the man's right arm. The already deep arrow shaft was hit by the impact, and it deflected a few points. The man's body slowed down in pain, and Qiu Biao shot a spear with his backhand, poof. With a loud sound, it pierced into the man's right rib.
The tip of the spear picked up and retracted, and the man immediately fell down. He could only breathe out but not in
