The big man is on the run

Chapter 51 Insignificant Kindness

Outside the two camps in Zheng County, the peasants who were driven from countless nearby villages gathered together numbly holding the soil.

"Guo Si wants to drive the people to fill the trenches."

Liu Yi frowned slightly, and he looked at Zhu Jun.

Zhu Jun supported the battlements, his old face showed no fluctuations in expression, and he concentrated on watching Guo Si's army's array distribution, armor and equipment.

Liu Yi's lips moved, and finally turned into a long sigh.

Where are the soldiers?Cream front!Where is Min An?Fill the ditch!
Liu Yi finally understood what Yue Fei's poem meant, but this bloody way of understanding was too cruel.

Mercy does not command soldiers. If arrows are not shot at these innocent civilians, everyone will die in the end. The moral dilemma like the trolley paradox made Liu Yi's forehead twitch with veins, and he hammered the bluestone battlement bitterly.

"Guo Si, what a fucking inhuman!"

In the distance, people's voices are noisy.

"Hurry up! The front ones are ready to fill in the trenches."

Guo Bang's forward troops have already found out that the camps of Yang Ding and Dong Cheng blocking them in front of Zheng County are first a deep trench and then a camp wall.

Therefore, the civilian husband, who was wrapped in wet soil with clothes and torn bags, finally approached [-] paces, was driven by Xiliang soldiers under Guo Bang, and was preparing to overcome the first obstacle.

Their eyes were full of fear, not even hatred.

In front is a fortress lined with strong bows and crossbows.

Behind them, there was the supervisor team who also carried steel knives and some crossbows.

These people who had their wives, children and family members killed, forced to use up their remaining lives to consume the defenders' arrows, and Guo Bang even saved tools to fill trenches with their corpses, closed their eyes helplessly, and ran wildly.

"Fill the trench! Hurry up!"

Under the urging of school captains and small schools at all levels shouting and beating, the captured peasants wore simple wooden shields and began to fill the trenches under the condition that they could only serve as psychological protection.

Bags of sacks filled with sand were thrown into the ditch in front of the camp. In an instant, the bottom of the ditch was filled with a shallow layer of soil. to be filled.

Of course, if there is no accident, there will be an accident soon.

Of course, Yang Ding and Dong Cheng couldn't sit back and watch Guo Si's army drive the people to fill the trenches. When the first wave of civilians wanted to go back and move the soil, the defenders started to fight back.

In fact, this kind of trench filling operation was extremely cruel in the war, because before the attack, Guo Bang's army only collected some soil with clothes and cloth bags, and did not make much preparation.

"Hmm~"

A civilian man was shot directly at the front door by the condescending defender crossbowmen in the sentry tower, and rolled into the ditch with a muffled wail, while his companion, after throwing away the bag in his hand, was lying on the charge road The corpses of the friendly soldiers of the army were stuffed into the trenches, hoping to complete the damn mission sooner.

"Bang Bang~"

"Hey~"

On the sentry towers and dirt hills behind, the sound of heavy crossbows firing and longbows unwinding can be heard incessantly. The peasants have to fill in the trenches while being careful with the arrows. This kind of experience on the verge of life and death can make you People are so embarrassed that they are dripping with cold sweat.

Yes, the long-range weapons of the defenders have finally begun to show their power.

"Don't run!"

The civilian husband was frightened, dropped the sandbag and started running around like a headless chicken.

The supervisory team held a bow and crossbow and forced them up from behind. Seeing that the situation was out of control, they started shooting after shouting in vain.

"what?"

A soldier of the supervising team looked suspiciously at the leading small school who was firing all shots, and the arrow shot through the air three feet above the civilian husband's head.

The Xiaoxiao glanced coldly at the soldiers from his hometown, and simply moved forward more than ten steps, his face expressionless, but the crossbow in his hand was raised a little bit higher.

Look at this obvious, but insignificant kindness.

A few people in the surrounding supervising team also came to their senses, and the arrows shot directly into the sky.

At this time, whether these refugees were allowed to run or not had no effect on the situation. A large number of corpses fell in front of the trench, and the corpses were much faster than filling the trench with a small bag of soil.

On the sentry tower, an experienced archer wearing a bright red tasseled helmet, accompanied by the sound of "squeaking" strings, bowed like a full moon, and the bloody triangular arrow pointed directly at the small school of the supervising team who had entered his extreme range.

"call out!"

The cold arrow streaked across the air, and the smoke and dust in the air were instantly shattered into imperceptible and beautiful fragments by the arrow.

The sound of the arrows tearing through the air startled the combat-experienced junior high school student from Xiliang. He suddenly lowered his body and raised the cowhide round shield full of Qiang people's decorative style to protect his head and face.

"呲~"

With a soft sound, the small principal's shoulder blade was pierced by the sharp triangular arrow. If he didn't dodge, the error of the arrow from the center of his chest and heart would not be more than a millimeter.

"pity."

Seeing the little school retreating from the front line in embarrassment, the shooter sighed, and continued to hunt and kill the officers who dared to cross his limit range.

Fortunately for the poor peasants, this kind of trench does not need to be filled all the way, but only a few sections of it need to be filled to allow large troops to drive through the trench.

After two incense sticks, soldiers of Guo Si's army began to attack the outer wall of the wooden village of the defenders on a few not-so-wide roads filled in by sandbags and civilian husband's corpses.

The hastily made ladders were set up on the wooden village, and the infantry of Guo Si’s army rushed up. For the soldiers rushing to the front, this kind of wooden village wall only needs to be close, and crossbowmen are afraid of accidental injury at this distance. They will not shoot them, but will shift their targets to their companions behind them. Many veterans with rich war experience are greatly relieved by this.

Guo Si's cavalry, in addition to 2000 guards covering the two wings, also had [-] people dismounted and formed a team, ready to go up to the city and fight on foot.

They saw the achievements of the infantry in front, the trenches had been filled out, and the soldiers of Guo Si's troops were so motivated that they rushed up one after another.

"With ladders and hook locks, sword and shield hands are ready to ascend the city!"

As the barb of the ladder got stuck on the wall of the camp, Guo Sijun's sword and shield fighters trotted out under the cover of not many archers. With a round shield to protect his head, face and upper body, he grabbed the ladder with the other hand and began to climb quickly.

There are also agile people who nail the hook wire used to drag and catch prey on the grassland to the wooden cracks in the camp wall, and then climb up by dragging.

The tragic siege battle has only now officially begun.

Rolling logs, rocks and maces were dropped on the camp wall for free, and the hastily made ladders of Guo Sijun were under tremendous weight and pressure all the time.

A nimble Guo Bang saber and shield hand climbed up the ladder, and the boulder at the top of the city was pushed down. Seeing that the black lump was about to hit him, he rolled back deftly and hung on the ladder in reverse. superior.

The huge boulder rolled down in front of his eyes, and the brothers below either jumped off directly or were smashed by the boulder horribly. Nervous sweat dripped down the sword shield hand's forehead in big drops, blurring his vision.

There was no time to be sad, three times and two times, the knife and shield hand jumped onto the camp wall, waving the scimitar at his waist, and struggling to open up the camp wall.

But just when he cut down a defender soldier, there was a person on the left and right sides, and the two long knives cut to his waist and abdomen in a tacit cooperation. There was no way to avoid it, and he died tragically on the spot.

A large number of infantrymen of Guo Si's army stepped onto the camp one after another, and began an extremely tragic attack.
