    Luoyang, Shangchunmen, city head.  Laizheng was still sitting on the bed in front of the city tower, with a pair of sparkling eyes behind the mask. More than twenty guards holding iron shields stood in front of him, forming a formation under his eyes.  A shield wall made of iron shields did not block his sight. Five hundred steps away, crossbows were roaring and shooting. Rows of flying spears penetrated into the city wall like raindrops.  Almost every time a flying gun hits the city wall, the place will tremble slightly, and the floating ash on the corner of the tower above is also falling slightly. Of course, these pitter-patter sounds are heard in this huge  However, it was completely drowned out by the roar and could not be heard at all.  Finally, the roar of the crossbow came to an end, the catapult's arm fell, and the sound of flying stones whizzing in again sounded. Soon, the sound of flying stones hitting the curtains was everywhere outside the city, "Puff."  , like a defeat, followed immediately by the sound of splashing water as the boulders kept falling into the moat.  Lai Ji's voice sounded from the corridor on one side: "Brother Six, Brother Six, I'm here." Lai Zheng frowned slightly, turned to look at Lai Ji, who was sweating profusely and running up to the city, and said in a deep voice  He said: "Lao Jiu, what are you doing? I told you to stay under the city and listen to my orders. What are you doing running up to the top of the city?" Lai Ji stuck out his tongue: "Brother Six, Lao Ten is guarding under the city.  It doesn't matter, we heard something wrong at the top of the city just now, and the city walls were shaking. We were all worried, so I came up to take a look. Anyway, if Brother Six has me around, there must be more errands.  "Lai Zheng sighed: "You have read the art of war into a dog's belly. Don't you know that military discipline is strict and you are not allowed to leave your post without permission? If you were fighting in the field, I could kill you now." Lai Ji.  He smiled and said: "Okay, Sixth Brother, isn't this a field battle? I am also following the order of the Tenth Brother. Seeing that there has been no movement at the top of your city for a long time, I came up to take a look. Besides, didn't you promise us that we would fight?  Will you teach us the art of war? If I'm inside this city wall, how can I learn how to defend the city?" Lai Zheng shook his head helplessly: "You kid, you are so glib. I don't think you can be a general in the future. Go be a civil servant.  That's good. Well, since you're here, I won't say anything. However, it's just this time. If I leave my post without permission again, I will have to engage in military law. "Laiji laughed: "I knew it.  Brother Six talks about brotherhood the most." As he was speaking, there was a sudden "woo" and a flying stone the size of a watermelon flew over Liji's head at a height of about ten feet, with a strong whistling sound.  It fell far into the city wall. After a few seconds, only a "bang" sound was heard, followed by a burst of exclamation from behind.  Lai Ji's expression changed, and he asked curiously: "How did this rock hit so far?" Lai Zheng shook his head: "The attack distance of these catapults is random. Sometimes, if the force arm is pulled very quickly,  , if it is powerful, it will hit the city wall at a distance of 600 steps, like this stone. However, generally speaking, most flying stones can only hit the city wall just at the distance. We have these curtains to  Resistance can effectively remove the incoming force of most of the flying stones and protect our city wall." Lai Ji nodded: "I see, what are those weapons that made the city wall shake just now?  Let¡¯s go.¡± Lai Zheng waved his hand, pointed at the city wall in front of him, and said, ¡°Lao Dao, you¡¯ll know just by looking at the top of the city wall.¡± Lai Ji poked his head out of the crenellation outside the female wall.  , his face changed suddenly, because there were hundreds of flying trees of different sizes planted on the city wall, which were half a foot deep into the wall. He withdrew his body and stuck out his tongue.  "What kind of weapon is this? Can it penetrate the city wall?" Lai Zheng pointed at the twenty crossbows five hundred steps away on the opposite side, where the gunners were hurriedly raising the elevation, and said: "That's it. Listen.  Your Majesty said it was for the bed crossbow." Lai Ji's expression changed, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a horn sound from the opposite side, and dozens of warriors holding giant hammers swung the giant hammer fiercely.  The sound of being hit, "click, click, click", was endless, and countless flying sticks were flying in the sky, flying directly towards the city.  Sounds like "bang bang" can be heard endlessly, and the shrill roar of flying missiles as they streak across the sky is like missile launches in later generations, or air defense sirens. It makes people's internal organs tremble, and many flying missiles hit them.  The crenellations of the city wall smashed the city headstones, which weighed dozens of kilograms, into pieces. Together with these flying sticks, they fell heavily onto the city wall. It took a long time before the sound of landing was heard.  A long black tree flew straight towards Lai Ji and Lai Zheng. Several sergeants shouted: "Commander, be careful!" Before they finished speaking, they flew in front of Lai Zheng and used their bodies to  and iron shieldHe blocked the two brothers tightly.  Lai Ji turned pale with fright. He hugged his head and crouched down quickly. He only heard a "Peng" sound, which was the sound of a flying spear hitting the iron shield. A Buqu guard standing in front of him held up his hand.  His iron shield was hit hard by this spear, and he screamed. He flew up and hit the beams of the tower behind him. He only heard a strange "click" sound, as if his back bone was broken, and his whole body  He vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted, unconscious. Several squatting soldiers on one side quickly picked him up and ran down the city wall quickly.  A burst of dust fell everywhere. It was the floating ash on the city tower. It was shaken off violently by the impact, and the more than ten guards who came to clean up were all covered with dust. However, they all remained intact.  The posture of sitting upright or squatting is like a clay wood sculpture, without even moving.  Lai Zheng sighed, stretched out his hand, patted the floating ash on Lai Ji's forehead and head, and said calmly: "Ninth brother, to be a general, you need to have Mount Tai collapse in front of you without changing your expression. On the battlefield,  , the arrows are flying, you can't stand it, how can you sit here and stabilize the morale of the army. If this attack is destined to take your life, you can't escape it even if you hide in the deep palace.  "Lai Ji's face was red, he stood up and said loudly: "The commander taught me that I am timid. From now on, even if I pierce a hole, I will never move." Man Tian.  Flying jets kept flying over his head and around him, but Lai Ji gritted his teeth and stood firm, motionless.  Laizheng nodded with satisfaction: "This is our man. Brothers, we must hold on tightly, stay still, and prepare to welcome the enemy's infantry to attack the city!"
