The Three Kingdoms in the Ya Nei

Chapter 68: Nanpi Raiders

"Batu!"

Liu Zhang clenched his fists and shouted again.look
Batu responded and bowed to salute.Liu Zhang took two steps, whispered in his ear, and after a while, Batu nodded in bewilderment, turned and went outside the tent.Not long after, there was a sound of horseshoes, and the eighteen guards, together with 120 people from the guard battalion, headed west.

After Liu Zhang had left, he strode out of the big tent, and asked someone to bring the Huo Yunju, turned on his back, and led Yan Liang, Wen Chou and two horses to the front of the formation. [

Under Nanpi City, Yan Chuan lined up [-] soldiers, and he rode in the lead, galloping back and forth in front of the team, pointing at the city with a golden-backed broadsword and yelling for war.

All the yellow scarves in the city were hiding behind the parapet, looking down cautiously, but no one dared to answer.

Lin Xiong also ran to the top of the city gate earlier, looked around, but saw two large camps set up by the southeast two gates of the Han army, looking at the number of banners, there were as many as two to three thousand people, he couldn't help being shocked.

From time to time, the Ximen could see the Han army patrolling past. Obviously, although the opponent didn't have too many troops to besiege the city, they were already prepared. But they didn't know the specific situation, so they dared not go there easily.

Only outside the north gate was quiet, presumably the strength of the Han army could only maintain three gates.However, Wei San Que Yi is also common sense in military strategists. I am afraid that if I really want to leave through the north gate, the opponent will cover up and kill me, but I don't know if I will run or not.

Lin Xiong looked around, and couldn't help crying in his heart.After thinking about it, I finally gritted my teeth.Nanpi City has high walls and thick walls, and there is millet inside.As long as I drag it on for a while, can these Han troops bring granaries to fight?When they run out of food and grass, they will retreat.

Thinking of this, I feel at ease.He ordered his subordinates to pass orders that they must defend the top of the city and never allow the Han army to attack.

He had just finished giving his orders when he suddenly saw the army and horses moving under the city.The old man stopped scolding, but the military ranks that had been standing at the back all the time were divided, and the soldiers came out one after another, pushing out a row of huge tower-like chariots.

On the top of the tower, there are four or five soldiers holding longbows.Lin Xiong's complexion changed drastically. Although he hadn't experienced many battles, this nest car knew about it.

There are as many as forty or fifty nest carts in this row, which means that there will be almost three hundred crossbowmen.The three hundred crossbowmen say that there are not many, and that there are not many, if they concentrate on shooting at one city, it is okay if they have more soldiers, but with the current number of soldiers, I am afraid that they can defend against the arrows of the nest carts. , it will be difficult to stop the opponent from attacking the city.

Thinking of this, he quickly turned his head to look behind the Han army formation, and couldn't help feeling cold in his heart.Aren't those rows of ladders like ladders?The opponent really came up with this idea!

Lin Xiong was sweating profusely on his head, but he heard the sound of a drum under the city, and when his body trembled, the guards beside him grabbed him and hid behind the parapet.

The rustle, the sound of sharp arrows piercing the sky, is like spring silkworms nibbling mulberry leaves, or like a rainstorm hitting plantains.There was a sudden darkness in front of the eyes, and then, the sound of duk duk continued, and the city was suddenly filled with tragic sounds.

Lin Xiong turned his head to look, but saw that the soldiers on his side had no combat experience at all, they only knew to hide behind the female wall, but unexpectedly, the sharp arrow shot, and after drawing a parabola in the air, the body exposed outside the wall suddenly became pale. Was shot as a hedgehog.

"Take a shield and protect it! Take a shield and protect it!" Lin Xiong was so angry and anxious that he couldn't help but hissed.

The guard next to him said bitterly, "General, we don't have many shields."

"What? This...>

There was chaos in the city.

At this moment, the Han army holding the ladder below started to move, shouting and rushing forward amidst the long voices of the messengers. [

Lin Xiong's face was pale, and he hissed loudly: "Protect yourself with a shield, prepare to roll logs and stones, block it—— You, go, take someone to watch from behind, if anyone dares to retreat, I will kill him!" Finally One sentence, but he turned his head and said to the soldiers.When he shouted these words, his face was already full of ferocity.

The guards were so frightened that they responded again and again, and rushed over with them in a hurry.After beheading more than ten heads in a row, the yellow turbans were finally scared, and they went back to the top of the city crying, throwing stones and logs down like crazy.

Liu Zhang and Yan Chuan in the city were dumbfounded, but Lin Xiong in the city barely took his breath away.

why?Because the Han army has not attacked yet, are the stones and logs thrown down at this moment intended to scare people back?

Lin Xiong wanted to scold people very much.It's just that, maybe it's because of the momentum, the Han army really didn't dare to come over.

The one who was carrying the ladder turned around and walked back, and the pawns who were about to move just now also stopped at the sound of an order.Only on the nest cart, arrows rained down from time to time.

With the cover of the door panel, it was much better than the first time.But it was still unlucky to be shot by an arrow passing through the gap.The miserable howls did not stop for a moment, and Lin Xiong's face turned blue.

The Han army is planning to consume themselves to death. How can they hold on if this goes on?No, you must not sit still!

Lin Xiong was sweating profusely, rolling with crackling beads, he pondered for a while, then suddenly turned around and shouted for his soldiers to come over.Grabbing him by the collar, he said: "Go, choose twenty brave men for me, half of them will go to Dezhou, and the other half will rush to the west, and go to the plains to ask for help! But I will reward him with a hundred gold if he can get help! No, five hundred gold!"
