I am the carpenter king

Chapter 273 The Battle of Siege

Looking at the Santunying in front of him with piercing eyes, Huang Taiji slowly raised his hand, swung it down vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Rush up! Take down the Santunying!"

Accompanied by the shout, two troops ran out quickly behind Huang Taiji, and rushed towards the Santun camp with the ladder in hand.When the infantry had almost rushed out, groups of cavalry rushed out.Each cavalryman carried a quiver behind his back and held a big bow in his hand.

This group of people was selected by Huang Taiji in the army to be good at bows and arrows. The Eight Banners and the Mongols are both good at archery, and these people are the best among them.Not only the arrows are accurate, but also the shooting speed is fast and the range is far.The last time I suffered from the ballista in Santunying, this is the way Huang Taiji came up with to let these people shoot arrows into the city from the opposite side of the trench.In this way, the Ming army in the city could be suppressed. The Ming army did not dare to raise their heads, but the range for the ballista was still not enough, but Huang Taiji believed that the Ming army would not have many ballistas.

Standing on the city wall, Qi Jin's wife, Mrs. Chen, quietly looked at the Jiannu rushing down below, and poked the iron rod in her hand towards the ground.The blood-red cloak behind her was fluttering under the strong wind, and the helmet tassel on her head was also fluttering with the wind, but her body was completely motionless, just standing there quietly.

"Daughter-in-law of the Qi family, I haven't seen your outfit for so many years, but it still looks the same now! Back then, you were dressed like this, riding on a horse, and that boy Qi Jin said that he wanted to marry you after seeing it. Begging the general to propose marriage, think about it like it happened yesterday." Wang Quan walked up to Madam Qi with a knife in his hand, and said with emotion

Looking back at Wang Quan, Mrs. Qi's face was a little red, but she still raised her eyebrows, and scolded softly: "If it weren't for your old nonsense, saying that we fell in love at first sight and decided for life privately, I would not Will marry this stupid big man. After so many years, you still dare to mention it? I was so angry when I said it, but you still dare to say it? If it is not for the sake of Granny Wang, I will tear you apart Alright, throw it directly into the city!"

He stepped back sharply.Wang Quan said with a smile: "As the saying goes, if you don't belong to the same family, if you don't enter the family, if it weren't for my old Wangtou, how could you have today? You don't say thank you, but you want to tear down my old bones? It's really a declining world." , people's hearts are not old!"

Seeing Wang Quan's appearance, Madam Qi swung the stick like Wang Quan and yelled loudly: "Like others, do you know what these two sentences mean?"

"Why don't I know. I've already inquired with the teacher in Xicheng, and I'm just waiting to use it at this time! You guys! You don't know how to respect elders at all. You and that kid from the Qi family are the same kind of people!" Wang Quan said. As he spoke, he jumped to one side, raised his legs as if he was walking, and talked while walking.

There were quite a few people on the city wall, and after Wang Quan ran away, his expression became serious, looking at the smiling soldiers around him.He said loudly: "I laughed too much, and Jianu also came up. Let me tell you, if anyone doesn't fight hard, he will urinate in his meal at night. Let me tell you, fight hard, General Look up there!"

Wang Quan didn't say much, and the people who were laughing just now became serious.Everyone looked up at the sky.Under the leadership of one person, he slowly raised his hand. No one spoke, and there was no unnecessary movement, just such a simple movement.When everyone put their hands down, the atmosphere on the city wall suddenly changed.The entire city wall was shrouded in chills.Everyone's face was dull, with bloodthirsty flashes in their eyes, and there was a kind of piety in those veterans, with pious eyes in their eyes, and a solemn expression on their faces.

The besiegers below the city kept running forward, and the artillery on the city finally rang out. In the roar of the artillery, the shouts of killing and screams were suppressed extremely low.Jiannu rushed through the trench like last time, and they were still greeted by crossbow bolts, but the density of crossbow bolts was much smaller.From this point, we can know that there are a lot fewer guards in Santun Camp.

Countless people rushed forward against the rain of arrows. Their speed was very fast, and everyone rushed forward.These people understand that although the ballista has a long range and great power, it is bulky and heavy to carry.Therefore, the range is fixed, and it can only cover one area, as long as it can rush over.It's just that the last time I ate too intensively, there was no possibility of rushing over, but this time I was able to rush over.

On the other side of the trench, the elite archers selected by Huang Taiji were all shooting arrows with their bows, and every stroke of the bow was like a full moon.Even so, most of the feather arrows fell outside the city, and only a small part could be shot into the city.However, even this small portion of feathered arrows caused casualties to Qi's army, not because someone was shot by the feathered arrows.

If you are lucky, you will be slightly injured. After breaking the feather arrow, you will continue to fight. If you are unlucky, you will shoot to death and fall to the ground.From time to time, screams sounded from the top of Santunying's walls, and some people fell to the ground muffled before they even had time to scream.Blood splattered, and the body just fell to the ground.

This kind of confrontation continued, but soon the battle changed to another form. Jiannu quickly passed the Yujian area and put the ladder on the city wall.In this way, the ballista lost its function, but the feathered arrows and rolling wood and rocks began to work, the screams continued, and people died continuously.

However, the artillery on the city kept ringing, and those who were shooting arrows on the opposite side of the ditch were all intercepted on the other side of the ditch.The battle continued, repeating monotonously, climbing up the ladder, and then being beaten down to death, while the people behind were climbing up.

Looking at the battle situation, Huang Taiji frowned slightly, looked at the few people on one side, and said in a deep voice: "You can't fight like this, who will go? Tell those archers to throw away their horses and rush across the ditch to the Go to shoot arrows on the opposite side. There seems to be a little shortage of troops now, who is bringing five thousand infantry up?"

"Master Baylor, what Sanke did wrong last time, this time let Sanke take someone with him, and Sanke is willing to make meritorious deeds." Sangke came out on a horse, clasped his fists at Huang Taiji, and shouted loudly. Said.

"Sangke!" Before Huang Taiji could speak, Sangga on the side had already called out, with worry written all over his face.There were 5000 people rushing up just now. Judging from the current appearance, at least [-] people died. My younger brother is leading people up. It is too dangerous.

Huang Taiji saw that the two brothers didn't say anything, he knew it was better for him not to talk at this time, and it was better for them to make up their own minds.

"Brother, last time I was in Zunhua, I was timid! As a warrior of the Mongolian grassland, Bateer of the Zalut Department, I can't lose face. The shame of the past can only be washed away with victory, and I will come back alive !" Looking at his elder brother, Sanke looked very serious, and his tone was quite firm, obviously he had made up his mind.

Nodding his head slowly, Sangga said in a deep voice: "Brother, you have grown up! You don't have to follow your brother anymore, you are Battar from the Jalut Department, go! Come back with honor!"

"Baile, let me go!" Turning his gaze to Huang Taiji again, Sanke said firmly.

Nodding his head in satisfaction, Huang Taiji said with satisfaction, "Okay! Sanke, you are impressive, go! If you win the Santun camp, after you go back, I will ask Father Khan to give you the title of Mongolian Battle!"

"Master Xie Belle!" Sang Ke clasped his fists at Huang Taiji, and ran out with the people into the distance.

At this time of the battle, four hours had passed, and the sun was already in the west.The setting sun sprinkled on the ground, reflecting on the blood, it looked extraordinarily bright red.The battle in the Santun camp continued, with screams and killings ringing loudly.

Ever since Sanke brought people into the battle, the situation of the battle has changed. The archers broke through the blockade of Qi's army and shot upwards from the city.After hesitating, the distance went a lot, and all the feather arrows fell into the Santun camp.

Since an hour ago, Jiannu had climbed up to the top of the city from time to time, but it didn't take long, and they were basically killed as soon as they came.However, both Qi's army and Huang Taiji knew that Santunying was shaken at once. As long as this offensive continues, Santunying will definitely be taken down.

The battle is still going on, the fighting has not stopped, the screams and shouts of killing are still ringing, blood is splattered, and flesh and blood are flying everywhere.

After knocking a Jiannu into the air, Madam Qi wiped her face fiercely. At this moment, her body was covered with blood, and her eyes were already bloodshot.He quickly ran to Wang Quan's side and beat a Jiannu to death with a stick. Mrs. Qi said with a smile, "How is it? The old man still refuses to admit defeat? It's over!"

"Daughter-in-law of the Qi family, it's wrong for you to bully my old Wangtou. Let me tell you, I hacked to death four Jian slaves and two Tartars. Even if I die, I will earn money." The old Wangtou leaned on his hands. Dao, with a big mouth in his mouth, said with a smile.

Looking at the Qi family army on the city wall, Mrs. Qi said rather worriedly: "It's useless to fight like this. Jiannu is acting desperately. We can't afford to use up such people! Just counted the number of people, 3000 people There are less than [-] left, and I will soon be unable to hold on!"

Looking up at the sky in the distance, Wang Quan said with a smile: "There is no problem today, it will be dark soon! We have survived this day, but daughter-in-law of the Qi family, if we can survive today, tomorrow may not be the same." I can get through it. Let me tell you here, if you really can’t keep it, call the Qi family boy back! Santunying is the root of the Qi family army, and it cannot be broken! The city is full of women, children and children, and Jian slaves cannot be allowed Attack in! Although it is important to stop Jiannu, there is still a trade-off when necessary!" Wang Quan's expression is quite serious, and he speaks very seriously, probably rarely speaking like this in his life.

Looking at Wang Quan's back, Madam Qi slowly fell into deep thought. (To be continued..)
