Chapter 687 Returning to the North (Twelve)
As soon as the third offensive came into contact, the people in the city suffered a loss.

Mongolian horse thieves in felt robes shoot arrows with ruthlessness and skill.Someone at the top of the wall just exposed half of his body when he was shot in the neck by two arrows at the same time, and fell down from the top of the wall without a word, seeing that he was dead.

The caravan escort who had fought with horse thieves all the year round hurriedly hid behind the shield.The guys at the top of the city are full of blood, but have little experience.In just a few breaths, three or four guys were shot by Yujian from various tricky angles.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the shopkeeper Wu, who was in command at the head of the city, hurriedly banged a gong and shouted that his men were hiding.After realizing it, the guys hid their bodies behind various shields and wooden boards.

This time, the Mongolian horse bandits, who were focusing on suppressing firepower, finally lost their target.

The danger at the top of the city seems to be resolved, but the danger below the city increases sharply.Without the suppression of the fire from the city head, the Taihang attack team members who were originally in the shape of green worms and hid under the planks and wriggled, suddenly came to their senses.The tree trunk, which had been thrown to the ground several times, was carried on the shoulders again with the chant.

This time, the tree trunk slammed into the door three times.

The door had been swaying shut for a long time, and with the last impact, the two door panels fell down at the same time after a "boom".

The piers with a small area have no city gates at all.The front foot of the door fell, the back foot, and the inside of the pier was unobstructed.

Across a city wall, the first thing the heroes of Taihang saw were a few guards hiding behind the junk.After that, his eyes passed through the guards and swept to the neatly stacked cargo boxes under the wall.

The moment they saw the goods, everyone's eyes were red.Before departure, in order to boost morale, the boss had already given everyone a thorough understanding of the valuable goods in the Yixinlong caravan.So the knights know exactly how much silver those boxes represent.

"Pour it into it~~~~ It's an old rule, first board and divide it into three!"

With a strange cry, the freeze frame was shattered at the moment after the door closed and fell.

At this moment, the heroes of Taihang transformed themselves, from green worms to big worms, raised their swords and axes, and rushed into the city gate howling wildly.

Not all cities are called Moscow, not to mention that it is a hot weapon war.

In the age of cold weapons, once the gate of the city is breached, in most cases, the overall situation is settled.

The three words "the city is broken" will instantly disintegrate the fighting spirit of the defender.And the attackers, who will definitely have the advantage in numbers, will have all the advantages of their troops without the obstruction of the city wall.Even if the defending side organizes street battles, it is no match for the attacking side whose morale is instantly full.

All the old thieves who have participated in the attack and defense of strongholds, ransacked villages, hoarded sieges, and bazaars understand the above principles.

As a result, not only the Taihang group of heroes blocking the door, but also the Mongolian horse bandits who were originally responsible for the formation behind them also pulled out their machetes and squeezed forward, intending to go inside and make a profit.

At the same time, the gang of bandits watching the battle from a distance also began to be restless.The ones rushing in front were naturally the horse bandits with horses, followed by the Taihang Brigade.But Ha Liu's subordinates, for some unknown reason, took a step slower.

At the closing, the flow of people poured in and gushed out.

The first group of Taihang Mountain bandits who rushed in stared straight at the guards in front of them and screamed strangely.

A little bit beyond the bandit's expectations is the resistance of the guards.

Several round shields were raised at the same time, blocking the blade.Afterwards, a few knives stably counterattacked, and two mountain bandits were charged on the spot.

Seeing this situation, the second group that followed was a little stunned. According to everyone's usual understanding, the guards should have lost their fighting spirit long ago, and it was the mainstream to kneel and beg for mercy.Unexpectedly, these few birdmen posed neatly as if they were trapped and fighting, and even cut down two brothers.

This can't be let go, and when we're done, we have to boil the oil for these birdmen and light the sky lanterns!

The Taihangxia, who was furious, whistled, and planned to expand the geese formation, divide and surround it.

The one who answered the whistle was the sound of the blade piercing the flesh from behind, which was sharp and cruel.

The person who finally realized that something was wrong looked back in amazement.

Due to the limited area of ​​the pier, the door is not wide, and a maximum of three people are allowed to enter and exit side by side.This is also the reason why the total number of the first two groups is six.

But from the third group onwards, the people rushing into the door were not so smooth: the two armored soldiers who were originally close to the city wall on both sides of the door suddenly burst into flames and began to harvest people's heads with long knives.

These two are monks and dumb warriors.

At this moment, the duo was wearing three layers of cotton armor, iron helmets, and holding a long sword of the side army.

Seeing that someone in front was cut down by a sharp blade protruding from the side, the mountain bandit who reacted later began to fight back.However, due to the narrow closing of the door, the troops were gradually increased, which resulted in the fuel-filling tactics in part: those who rushed through the door needed to be scattered left and right to respond to the enemy, and it became a situation where a few people continued to face the soldiers.

The armorless bandit with zero defense value faces the heavily armored samurai, and the outcome is obvious.The armored soldier simply ignored the long and short iron blades coming from the opposite side, and just used the thick and long long sword of the frontier army to greet the enemy's vital points.

Accompanied by a series of dull blade piercing sounds, roars, and screams, the Xian Deng warriors who had poured in, were chopped down by the armored soldiers like slaughtering chickens.

The few who had rushed over before, saw the miserable image behind them, and no longer looked arrogant.Among them, the widest little leader, Brother Heihu, let out a shout, and then instructed everyone to turn back and rush back, intending to cooperate with the crowd that kept pouring out of the door, and to take care of the two armored bastards first.

However, Brother Heihu was suddenly hit hard: the captain of the guard, Wu Qian, with two guards with the best archery skills, stood on the wall above the closed door, and shot Heihu's chest with a bow and arrow in a leisurely manner.

The remaining few had no good end: the guard who turned over from behind the garbage heap at some point, shot from behind and hacked them to death.

From this moment, the flow of people pouring into the pier began to suffer three-dimensional blows from three sides + the top of the head.In just a few dozen breaths, the bandits who rushed into the door were all chopped up and shot through the ground, without any omission.

No one can bear such casualties, let alone the undisciplined mountain bandits who are wrong. The mountain bandits who rushed into the door before have all been accounted for, and now it is the horse bandits from the Mongolian steppe who are suffering the casualties.

In front of the heavy armored samurai, there is no difference between a horse bandit with a machete and a mountain bandit with a hatchet.Obviously, the horse bandits also realized this.As a result, a rare and famous scene on the rivers and lakes finally appeared: the people who poured into the stronghold, after the casualty rate reached a critical point, howled and exited the gate.

Following closely behind, two human-shaped tanks wrapped in thick armor also shot out from the door with blood-dropping long knives on their backs.

At this moment, the horse bandits who came out were chopped down one by one from the back with a long knife, and the surviving people panicked and rushed towards their own family members in the extreme panic. The horse bandit was stunned, and quickly restrained the reins.

Like the city gate, the width of the earth slope before closing is also limited, and it can accommodate up to three horses in parallel.The flow of people rushed head-on, and the horse bandits who were still trying to shoot the enemy with a bow suddenly turned their backs and became the victim of a stampede accident.

In this way, the bandit brigade that was about to go up the hill was hit by a mudslide formed by their own family, and a pearl rolled up the curtain.

Fortunately, the caravan's side is not enough hard power after all.The two warriors with arrows in their bodies slashed all the way to the side of the river and stopped, then slowly retreated with other guards, and finally disappeared behind the city gate.

The first-class people all returned, and Shopkeeper Wu, who had already prepared them, immediately led all the guys to start clearing the city gate.They first threw all the corpses out of the city gate, and then began to block the city gate with blue stripes and stones.

Backing up the stones used to block doors and repair walls is a regular performance task for border posts everywhere.During the long guarding years of Wuhuodun, the guards on duty used the spirit of ants gnawing on elephants to reserve enough stone.

It didn't take long for the door to be opened to be blocked by three layers of bluestone strips.

Unlike jubilant, joyful and relaxed opponents.The bandit gang is really gloomy and gloomy now, and it is unbearable to see.

Looking at the wounded people lying all over the place, listening to the filthy curses and painful moans, and feeling the strong pessimism that pervades the sky, Gu Ming, the big boss of Taihang, finally broke the defense and turned to the side with a ruthless voice. Ha Liu, who was pouring in a big green military water bottle, said: "Master Ha, it looks like this, but do you want to make a charter?"

After a pause, Gu Ming became more and more angry, squinted at Uncle Ha, and added in a bad tone: "Hmph, did you come to see the brothers' jokes?"

"Haha, where, where."

Filled with water and hiccupped loudly, Uncle Ha patted his stomach contentedly: "It's not because the brothers are injured a lot, I'm afraid we won't have the manpower to attack the fortress, so wait a minute."

"Do you still need to attack the fortress?"

Gu Ming finally got out of his anger.He looked up at Ma Jie, the leader of the horse bandit on the opposite side, and found that this one also had a gloomy expression about to break the defense, so Gu Ming shouted angrily at Uncle Ha: "My two families have suffered heavy casualties, how can there be people to attack the fortress! The surname is Ha, this business is yours, and now it looks like a grandson, whether you want to fight or not, give the master a word!"

Seeing that the three alliances were going to collapse, Ha Liu was still able to hold his breath, and he still gave a light-hearted slap, and then he said solemnly: "The rules that were agreed before, I will go, and your subordinates will have someone to take the lead. Well, now there are no people who lead the way, so I have to do it myself."

Speaking of this, Ha Liu also changed his color and asked, "In that case, please explain to the head of Gu, how to calculate the fee for the first move?"

For Gu Ming, at this time, the first thing he cares about is whether he can win the pier after paying a huge price, and the second thing he cares about is whether the leader of the generalized gang Ha Liu will not be able to do it under the situation of strength and weakness. He will turn his face and eat black. As for the division of the front line that was agreed before, it is not in the consideration of Gu Da's family at all.

So when he heard the words, he immediately replied unequivocally: "The first three shares will naturally belong to you. I will make another decision here: the heroes of the Guangyi Gang have to win the thorns, and the first team will get another share!"

"Okay! I'm happy! I can't complain that the reputation of being a family member is tight in the Dao, and Ha Liu learned it today!"

Uncle Ha, who negotiated the price, blushed as if he had been smeared with wax.I saw him stretch out his hand and draw a cavalry-type powder gun with a sawn-off barrel from the saddle. A seventeenth-century sprayer.

With a loud "Boom", Uncle Ha, while shooting his gun in the sky, shouted loudly: "My sons, go to Lao Tzu and break the pier to raise the reputation of my Guangyi Gang!"

"Order!"

"Driving~"

Following Ha Liu's order, nearly half of his riders dismounted one after another, pulled out sprays and sabres, and set up a scattered formation, and began to move towards the pier.

The members of the caravan located at the head of the city, although they were surprised that the other party resumed the attack wave so quickly, but that's it, everyone is very calm.

Facing the blockage of the gate, the height of the pier wall is three and a half stories high, no matter what kind of weapon the attacker holds, as long as there are no siege devices such as ladders and collisions, the current defender really doesn't care.

What's more, the previous battle situation has already explained: even if the attackers hit the wall, they may not be able to stand on their feet.

To this, the pile of corpses under the wall can testify.

However, Yixinlong's business people have finally overlooked one point: what they are about to face is a [-]th-century military force armed by Marxist-Leninist mistakes and Cao Chuan's military strategic thinking, with sophisticated tactical capabilities. Modern gangster.

The next battle process, ever since the Transcendence Congregation came to this plane, has been happening and has never been surpassed.

There is no need for a detailed list here. In short, it is the same old practice: start shooting, suppress it, roar, and withdraw collectively.

The tried-and-true show begins again: amid the roar of laughter on the wall, the lead wire of the medicine pack burns to the end.

The next moment, the earth-shattering loud noise echoed in the mountains, blasting the Mongolian horses to the ground.Some startled horses dragged their masters to run among the rubble on the spot, while more horses lay down on their nests.

At the same time, a large number of Taihang heroes were also frightened to the ground.

And along with the loud noise, there was a large black smoke and dust, as well as the city gate, gravel and human body flying into the sky.

After half a column of incense kung fu, the bandit gang, who had lingering fears, carefully crossed the long-disappeared city gate.

This time, the bandits really thought too much.According to the people guarding the pier, except for the unfortunate ghost who was bombed to the sky, the rest were alive, all of them were shaken by the loud noise, and all of them were rolling on the ground with their ears covered, or their faces were flushed and swaying. Unsteady way.

The excited gang roared and began to inspect the loot and prisoners of war.

Among them, the most exciting one is Ma Jie, the leader of the horse bandits.Ma Jie, who rushed into the pier with the rest of his men in a hurry, finally found the two shopkeepers Wu and Wu Qian who survived happily.

"The mountains don't turn the water, and I haven't seen each other for a long time. Ma Jie took the place of my dead ghost brother and greeted the two of you!"

Ma Jie, whose eyes were intertwined with excitement and danger, lightly patted Wu Qian's cheek with a machete: "The accounts of our two families can finally be settled. Don't worry, take your time, the days are long."

Just at the moment when Madang's family was complacent, a saber stretched out from the slanting stab, blocking the path of the machete.

Then, a cold question sounded: "If you want to take someone, have you asked my helper?"
