Great Zhou Tianzi

158 Battle of the Border Town

As the sun was setting, the guards of the border city saw a cavalry coming from the west from a distance. They looked like Huns from the clothes. Would the Huns also want to join the ranks of the Rongdi people?

The defenders were uneasy, [-] Rongdi people were already difficult to deal with, plus the Huns who were more ferocious than them, how could the city be defended?

When the news reached Jilin, she immediately went to the city to watch.

The defenders didn't understand why the eldest princess took out an iron cylinder and looked at it for a few times, and her tense expression turned into a happy smile. Is it a good thing for the Huns to join in?

"Be prepared to open the city gate at any time!" Ji Lin's words made everyone puzzled, why did they open the gate before it was too late?

That's right, that person was Ji Jie. After running wildly all the way, he finally arrived here, and the messenger of King Rongdi was left far behind by him.

Not only the defenders of the Yan State, but the Rongdi people also thought that the person who came was the Huns. Thinking that they just sent a messenger before, could it be the person who sent the letter back?

Everyone thought so, so that no one intercepted Ji Jie's deep and long journey into the encircled position.

You don't provoke me, of course I am too lazy to waste time, Ji Jie ran forward non-stop, and no one realized that something was wrong until he passed the Chinese army's tent for a long time.

"That person looks familiar. If he was delivering a letter, why didn't he stop?" It was Bulechuan, the deputy vanguard of King Chidi who spoke.

No wonder he felt familiar, Ji Jie had dealt with him a lot.

"No, that person is Ji Jie!" Bulechuan recognized him, and shouted: "Stop him quickly, that person is Zhaowen Jun Ji Jie, shoot the arrow!"

There is still no time, one is that he runs fast, and the other is that it takes a certain amount of time to convey the order. Before Brechuan's words reached the ears of the soldiers, Ji Jie had already crossed the encirclement and headed straight for the city gate.

"Smart brother!" Ji Lin said to herself with a smile: "Would you be lucky to pass through the enemy's encirclement without a single shot in the clothes of the Huns?"

The Rongdi people still released their arrows, but they all landed on the ground behind Ji Jie.

"Open the door!" Ji Lin gave an order, and the city gate opened to a width of one meter. Ji Jie rode in, and the city gate closed immediately.

Jumping off the horse, Ji Jie just took off his hat, a soft body threw himself into his arms, who else could it be but Ji Lin.

"Sister Lin, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are even more enthusiastic!" Ji Jie said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid of ruining your soldiers?"

"What are you afraid of!" Ji Lin leaned her breasts tightly against his chest and said, "I can do whatever I like, it's none of their business! Where did you go, why did it take you so long? just came back?"

"Indescribable!"

"Then go back and say, I have plenty of time!"

"Uh!"

……

Ji Jie, of course, forgot about peeking at Rouyue taking a bath, and focused on the process of helping them tide over the difficulties.

Ji Lin let out a long breath and said, "I've always been worried that the Huns would meddle. You have become the Hun King's savior. He probably won't take revenge. As long as the Huns don't come, we can defend!"

"I've already told you about the experience of the past few days, so it's up to you next?" Ji Jie was eager to know what kind of impact the Rongdi people's attacks had on the border town.

At the beginning, King Chidi led his troops to attack the city. The two sides fought for nearly an hour. Ji Lin relied on the advantage of the city wall to capture more than 800 people. After King Chidi retreated, he immediately found King Rongdi, who brought 5000 [-] people, plus other tribes who heard the news, added up to a total of [-].

2 people returned to King Rongdi for restraint. In the past few days, he launched a total of three sieges on the city. In the most serious one, hundreds of Rongdi people climbed the city wall and fought with the Yan army. The city wall almost changed hands.

King Rongdi brought a more effective siege equipment rope-pulled ladder. The bottom of the ladder is fixed on a copper shaft on a wooden base, and the top is enough for three soldiers holding shields to stand on the ladder. Standing up, directly on the city wall, three soldiers jumped down to form a triangular formation to cover their climbing companions. The attack was effective and reduced their own casualties.

This new type of ladder caused Ji Lin a lot of headaches. Dozens of ladders can be put up at the same time, and it can instantly cause a scuffle on the city wall tens of meters away. Moreover, the first batch of people who attack are all brave and skilled fighters, so it is very difficult to deal with.

"It would be great if there were thunderbolts, and their ladders would never rush under the wall!" Ji Lin looked at Ji Jie eagerly, and said with a smile: "Of course, it would be even better if you would give some sky-shattering cannons! "

Ji Jie regretted it to death. He knew that he shouldn't have exposed Xu Mijie's matter to Ji Lin. Now that he's done, he has become her human cash machine. The situation in front of him is so urgent, he can't say no to it!

"Save it up, there's not much left!" Ji Jie muttered, "I'll give you 1000, two hundred thunderbolts, and sixty shocking shells. Don't bargain. There's only so much left. If you think it's too little If so, you can choose not to!"

"Yes, of course!" Ji Lin quickly stretched out her tender little hand.

The news of Ji Jie's return to the border town spread like wildfire, and King Rongdi got to know him to a certain extent through the descriptions of King Chidi and Bulechuan.

"So, Ji Jie is a bold, careful, mature young man!" King Rongdi stroked his beard and said, "He dared to break into our camp in Hun clothes. This kind of courage is not something ordinary people can have! But even if So what if he leaves the ghost valley, can one person change the entire situation of the battle? Can his appearance increase the city wall by one foot and double the morale of the soldiers?"

Brechuan wanted to say something, but King Chidi tugged at his sleeve and winked at the same time.

Blechuan had no choice but to shut up, and King Rong Di continued: "The attack power of the new ladder is obvious to all. Tomorrow, we will all go into battle and take down the city wall in one go. So what if Ji Jie comes, and he just happens to be my prisoner!"

King Chidi and Brechuan talked about the thunderbolt. King Rongdi was also very concerned at the beginning. He was careful in the first two attacks, but he never saw the scene they described from the beginning to the end. What kind of explosion? , people turning their backs, and broken limbs and arms, wouldn't the two of them make up out of thin air?

After several trials, the defense capability of the border town was clearly grasped by King Rong Di, and he was full of confidence.

Early the next morning, the 2000 men and horses in charge of the attack advanced towards the city wall, and sixty new-style ladders were lined up.

In order to achieve the best attack effect, Ji Lin ordered people to build an earthen platform higher than the city wall overnight, and then invited Ji Jie to go up, asked him to take out a trebuchet, and then she was in charge of it herself.

Two hundred personal guards were also placed on the front line, each with six thunderbolts, waiting for the enemy to come within range.
