Chapter 1120 Changping County Lord 68
Xining went to the bed next to him, sat down on his side, and took the Tang Pozi from Jing'er next to him.
After thinking for a while, he said: "We are short of manpower here. Go and call everyone in the mansion. You will also want to go."
Seeing the unwillingness of Boss Jing'er, he said calmly: "After the siege, if the city is not captured, the wounded soldiers will need someone to take care of them. If you meet someone you like by then, tell me and I will agree. Although these are all If you are a commoner in the Li family, you may be able to get an official position if you have military merit. Then you can be a wife of an official and the mother of the family. "< br>
After hearing this, Jing'er immediately said yes and went out excitedly to spread the message.
Xijing sat there quietly, feeling a little stressed. Tomorrow would be the first wave of attacks, and she wasn't sure whether she could withstand it.
In the middle of the night, Huxie Maodun was sleeping soundly when he was woken up. It was Uweida who sent someone to send a letter.
The messenger was called. After hearing this, his nose almost became angry.
The answer was that the Great Khan ordered him to guard the south gate and not let anyone escape. Without the order of the Great Khan, they did not dare to use troops.
The Xiongnu Khan is leading 50,000 troops and is fighting at Yanmen. If he goes to ask for instructions, it will take at least half a month to go back and forth, and there is heavy snow on the road. If something unexpected happens, the letter may not be delivered. Less than.
It was too cruel to blame the matter on the Khan.
Huxie Maodun was so angry that he kicked and smashed several things, destroying several things. Then he waved his hand and roared loudly: "If you don't fight, I will fight! I don't believe that fifteen thousand people can't attack this small ruin." City! ”
Make a fire at Mao hour and drag out some mutton from a yard. These were all frozen sheep. After being transported, they were skinned and gutted, cut into four sections, and then placed in the yard.
In this weather where droplets of water turned into ice, the mutton was frozen hard.
Although this mutton is not as delicious as freshly killed mutton, at this time, many ordinary people can only eat a bite of meat during the Chinese New Year. It’s already good to have meat like this.
There is no need to shout. When the mutton soup begins to bubble in the pot and the aroma of meat wafts out, the officers and soldiers sleeping in the tents covered with thick quilts wake up by smelling the aroma.
The cook shouted with a big spoon: "Come on, come on, line up one by one with bowls, there is meat and soup. After eating, everyone still has half a bowl of wine!"
Meat is eaten every day, and broth is drunk, with shredded kelp in the soup. This has made many people who have never eaten vegetables have much better eyesight. You know, some people can't see clearly at night.
After eating, each person can actually get half a bowl of wine.
The centurion poured the wine and shouted: "After eating and drinking, let's have another bowl of courageous wine. Don't be timid when you kill the Huns soldiers later!"
"Okay! I won't give in!" The soldiers, whose faces were all red from eating, shouted loudly.
While drinking strong wine, he laughed and boasted, waiting to kill the Huns soldiers one by one, making them cry for their fathers and flee back.
After eating, we did another mobilization.
Xun Liao shouted loudly: "What will happen to us if we are attacked by the Huns? We will be killed by the Huns, and we will become slaves even if we don't die. So for the sake of the Han Dynasty and for ourselves, I will defend the city until it is destroyed, and I will perish if the city is destroyed." City!”
If he fell into the hands of the Huns, he would be worse than a pig or a dog alive. You have to hold on, no matter what, you have to hold on to the daily broth noodles, steamed buns, shredded kelp, and half a bowl of good wine from time to time.
So the soldiers shouted loudly: "Defend the city to the death! Defend the city to the death! Defend the city to the death!"
For a time, the crowd was excited, as if a chicken blood had been injected, and the fighting momentum was high.
A group of vanguard soldiers, about 400 people, went to the tower to serve as the vanguard to resist the team. But they found that fifty or sixty people were already standing on the city tower, carrying bows and arrows on their backs, and the ground was already piled with arrows.
"These are recruited." The sergeant made such a simple introduction. If you want to make friends after surviving today, you can ask for their names. He turned to the temporary soldiers and said, "Wait a moment, you guys stand behind. When you hear the arrows being fired, just shoot in front. Don't worry about whether you hit the target or not, just shoot a few more."
< br>
These temporary soldiers nodded. Who doesn't know how to shoot arrows? Now almost everyone in the city can shoot arrows. It doesn't matter whether they are accurate or not. Anyway, they can definitely shoot arrows. Then arrange the personnel arrangement.
Several soldiers started talking among themselves. They didn't know if they would survive today anyway, so they talked loudly and unscrupulously.
"Oh my God, this old woman was also recruited? She is probably older than my grandmother."
"Didn't I say that, regardless of age, gender, as long as you know how to shoot, it will be fine."
"But this is too..."
Before he finished speaking, an arrow flew over, passed between the two of them, and hit the bricks of the city wall before falling.
The two of them looked sideways and saw the so-called old woman slowly putting down her bow posture and glaring at them: "I'm a finalist in the archery competition."
That is, all ten arrows hit the target. Well, Lao Gui Lao knows how to shoot arrows.
When the time came, Huxie Maodun rode his horse and led his people to the city gate.
First, they scolded the formation to persuade them to surrender. If they didn't get a reply, they attacked the city.
The centurion looked at the dark Hun soldiers, setting up ladders and carrying the goalposts, rushing towards them.
A veteran next to him picked up his bow and arrow and shot an arrow forward.
The arrow flew out and stuck in the snow, and the Hun soldiers who came one after another ran past the arrow.
That's a positioning arrow, depending on the range.
The centurion saw it clearly and shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"
So the people standing on the city wall released the arrows they were holding in their hands, and hundreds of arrows shot out from the strings, flying densely toward the Huns.
After one arrow went out, he immediately grabbed another one. The arrowheads of all the arrows were dipped in gold juice. Don't worry about not having enough arrows. There are plenty of arrows. If you run out of arrows here, there are still some in the warehouse. They are all collected during competitions, at least 30,000 to 40,000 pieces, feel free to use them.
The Huns soldiers did not expect that there would be so many arrows coming, which can be described as a hail of bullets. There is no place to hide, no place to hide, the only choice is to bite the bullet. Almost every step, every inch of the ground, left a body.
The still warm blood soon spread out from under the body, staining the white snow in front of the city gate red.
Looking at the arrows falling like rain in front of him, most of the five hundred siege soldiers in the lead had been lost. Huxie Maodun's eyes were red, and he shouted: "Go up, all of them! I must take them down!!" ! ”
The arrows have never been broken since the beginning, nor have they been reduced. This seems to be a tough battle, with more dangers than good. He was really not in danger, so he asked his men to die, so the soldiers next to him had no choice but to bite the bullet.
"Whoosh, whoosh..." Suddenly, objects were thrown from the tower, with a range farther than arrows. After being thrown, they fell from the sky and fell one by one.
Two of them fell too close, and Hu Xie Mao Dun's mount was so frightened that he backed away with a "squeak" sound.
What is this? Huxie Maodun looked down and thought he had seen it wrong.
A follower beside him pulled the thing out of the snow, and now he could see it more clearly...it was a small kitchen knife with a hemp rope tied to the back!
