Chapter 241 Spear Penetrating the Five-Step Alliance ([-])

If things happen tonight, no matter who finally captures the King of Chu, this world-shattering alliance will be inseparable from the Mohist family, and the world will know that the Mohist family is unparalleled in wisdom and courage.

However, whether it was the King of Chu captured by the Yishi of Peixian County or the King of Chu captured by the Mohist disciples led by Gong Zaoye, there will be a big difference in some things after the war.

Before the civil strife in Shangqiu City, the agreement between the Gentleman's Court and the Common People's Court to inquire about politics has nothing to do with the people of Pei County.

Because it is impossible for the volunteers from Peixian County to directly stand on the side of Song Gong, even if they appear, they cannot directly go to Song Gong, but help as a mediator with force.

The volunteers in Peixian County were not from the capital, so they did not have the power to discuss government affairs left over from before the Spring and Autumn Period. They could only use their military exploits in defending Shangqiu from the outside world in exchange for the autonomous status of Peixian County.

Once the war subsides, if this matter is done by volunteers from Pei County, then it will be easy to win what everyone wants.

Whether it is public opinion or Song Gong, it is impossible to refuse, even if you don't want to admit it, you have to accept it.

After the heat in Gongzaoye's heart calmed down, he finally became the Gongzaye who was the harm of the Seventh Enlightenment of the Mo School, and no longer the Gongzaye who wanted to benefit the world and had the courage of a gentleman.

After a brief stop to regroup, Gong Zaoye gave the final order.

In the easiest place he knows to attack, the volunteers from Pei County will be the main attackers, and the rest of the Mohists will be the support during the siege. Once they break into the camp, they will be responsible for cleaning up the rest of the enemies, and let the unworldly feat of capturing the King of Chu be given to him. To the volunteers in Pei County.

Mohist disciples abide by discipline and orders, they don't ask for reasons, and they don't care about tonight's meritorious deeds.

Since the giant has ordered them to follow Gongzaoye's arrangements for tonight's battle, they will obey Gongzaoye's orders unconditionally. Even if there is a fiery pit in front of them, they will jump into it without hesitation.

The Mozhe holding the shield stepped forward to cover the rest of the people following behind. Gong Zaoye and the others were in the second row, preparing gunpowder weapons in their hands, and they would throw them as soon as they approached.

Next to them were some Mohist elites with shovels and pickaxes. When they approached the camp, they quickly dug a hole and used the gunpowder they carried to blow up the camp to create a passage.

The archers gathered by the Chu people lit their torches. Although they couldn't see the situation on the other side clearly, they still shot feather arrows indiscriminately.

This kind of shooting will not cause any casualties, and it will not even slow down the pace of the people who are advancing. Occasionally, one or two people will be hit by arrows, but someone will soon fill their positions.

When they approached the camp for about thirty steps, the Chu archers could finally see the attacking Mo Zhe clearly, but the shape of the camp, which harbored evil intentions, made it impossible for them to shoot arrows from the two wings effectively, and could only face the Mo Zhe who was advancing with a large shield. By.

Because a small part of the fort protruded, and this was the most vulnerable place when the fort was built, Gong Zaoye knew it was because the fort itself was built by the Mohists.

The king of Chu never thought that the Mohists would choose to go through the formation to hijack the king, and even believed that taking Shangqiu was inevitable, so he didn't consider the strength of the camp at all.

The intentionally protruding part seems to have no problem, but when it really needs to be guarded, there can only be dozens of people shooting arrows from the front, and the side is bent to the back because it is concave, and it is impossible to shoot the attacking side's flanks from both wings.

The construction of a fortress wall requires geometry.

A slight change can allow the range of the two wings to support the front; a slight change is enough to make it impossible for the range of the two wings to have a chance to support.

Now, the Chu people on both sides of the front of the camp did not dare to act rashly.

Not to mention the means of raiding the flanks of the camp, the most elite part of the people will be scattered by the Mohist elites outside the camp. At this time, going out of the camp and raiding can only be a dead end.

Due to the narrowness of the contact area, there were very few archers in front of the Chu people, and the rest could only watch the crowd approaching from the sides.

The sound of Dodo's feather arrows hitting the big shield became louder and louder, and the people who were hiding behind judged from the strength and sound of the feather arrows that they were approaching the camp of the Chu people immediately.

Gong Zaoye looked at the distance from the gap in the big shield, and shouted: "Light it up!"

Those strong and brave Mohist elites immediately lit the fuse and threw it towards the camp with all their strength.

A moment later, the loud bang, the familiar flash of light and the exciting smell of gunpowder smoke appeared on the battlefield again.

With the help of the cover at the moment of impact, more than 20 inkmen holding various tools rushed forward quickly, and the person in charge of the cover also approached with a large shield, propping up the shield diagonally to protect those who were digging the cave.

Gong Zaoye stayed behind, occupying the best distance for throwing, holding an iron lump in his hand, making sure that the Chu people who are not afraid of death regrouped to fight back.

Above the camp, the previous instant throwing and explosion caused a huge loss to the Chu archers in the front row, and the rest were shaken tottering and in chaos.

Under the thick smoke, it is impossible to effectively aim at all, and the death of the comrades around him is miserable, so there is really no fighting spirit.

Or a dozen of them crossed the barracks in a daze, unwilling to be killed like this again, and chose to charge desperately, but after rushing out, they couldn't get close to the Mo Zhe's army formation at all.

The elite Mohists who were in charge of the excavation knew that time was precious, and that every time they took a quick breath, there was an extra possibility of victory and immortality.

The deliberately built iron tools excavated extremely quickly, and the place was only slightly rammed earth at the beginning, and soon a large hole was dug under the brick wall of the camp.

Under the big shield, the inkmen who carried gunpowder specially designed to blow up the camp immediately buried a large amount of gunpowder in the wooden shell, and the rest of them used the dug out masonry soil to block and bury them, leaving only the lead wires.

This has already been practiced hundreds of times, and it is also the No. 14 siege method that Gong Zaoye often says: digging tunnels and blowing up the city wall with gunpowder to break through.

This is just a simple camp, not much gunpowder is needed.

When everything was ready, the person holding the match ignited the fuse, and more than 20 people hurriedly escaped from the fuse and gunpowder that were radiating death.

Gong Zaoye stared at the burning fuse, and ordered loudly: "In a moment, the camp explodes, and the Mohist people immediately jump over the base and attack, clearing out an open space for the entire team."

"After the volunteers from Peixian County crossed the barrier, they immediately formed a team. The goal was the tower. Capture the King of Chu alive, and achieve an incomparable feat!"

After he ordered a few times loudly, more than 30 Mohists armed with short spears joined the volunteer army in Peixian County, and as the low-level commanders after a while, they took on tasks similar to Sima Chang.

The rest of the Mohists understand that when the time comes to attack from the base, the situation will be chaotic, so they can only take advantage of the panic of the Chu people, and cooperate with a team of 30 people to attack the Chu people and make the Chu people completely confused.

Inside the camp, the Chu people were panicked by the previous explosion, and the people behind were afraid to move forward, and they didn't know what the Mohists were doing under the camp.

After the 20 people retreated, many Chu people noticed the strange flickering fuse, but they didn't know what it was, let alone what method the Mohist was planning to use to cross the camp.

Just for a moment, after a loud noise that shook the sky and the earth, a huge gap appeared in the masonry camp, and the Chu people near the gap were either killed or injured.

Gong Zaoye raised his sword and yelled, the Mozhe who held the shield immediately abandoned the shield, and rushed forward with the dagger in his hand, rushing in from the gap.

When they ran near the gap, the dozens of people lit the gunpowder here, and threw it towards the camp with all their strength, regardless of where they could throw it.

There was another dense explosion, and Gong Zaoye crossed the camp, and immediately formed a small formation with more than a dozen fellow disciples around him, taking advantage of the chaos and panic of the Chu people, rushed in to assassinate.

What they have to do is to not give the Chu people in front a chance to fight back, and clear out a field for the Peixian Volunteers to attack as a whole team.

The people of Chu were dizzy and frightened, and they were not elite warriors. How could they stop the Mohist elites who were in high morale and who were like wolves and tigers.

In an instant, many Chu people also ignored those promises and interests, and did not dare to move forward at all, only wanting to squeeze back.

Gong Zaoye killed six people in a row and was covered in blood, but he didn't pay attention to where the king of Chu was. He only cared about those Chu people who were chaotically retreating, and didn't allow them to have a chance to gather and fight back.

Because he knew that the king of Chu had no way to retreat at this time, he dared not run away and he could not run away, the only place he could go was near a stable tower - don't run around, there is still a chance to form an alliance, if you run around But he may die in the chaos.

With shouts, the volunteers from Pei County who crossed the camp quickly regrouped under the request and guidance of more than 30 Mohists mixed in, so far there was no obstacle in front of them, only a flat area remained.

The target was the tower, so the spears in the front row held their spears and moved forward slowly and evenly, listening to the sound of drums behind them.

There are some ink practitioners on the front, but not many.

More and more Chu people either fled or were organized to fight back from the front.

The spearmen in the front row were not panicked, their wings were Mohist elites scattered in small formations, and from the moment they held the spears, they were constantly instilled: the spear formation is complete, and the front is invincible!
So they nailed the Chu people who seemed to have rushed over to the tip of their spears, as they usually did in training, and then drew back their spears, moving forward firmly and slowly at their usual speed.

Like the tide, unstoppable.

The number of Chu people in the camp and the like does not have much advantage, and the quality may not be the same. Coupled with the shock of three consecutive gunpowder throws before, they have suffered a great loss, frightened and unable to stop them.

The Mo family has fought hard for many years, defending the city without dying. They have their own means, and they have an advantage in the chaos.

The Pei County Volunteer Division, who didn't have enough time for training, had no worries on both sides, and reorganized the team after entering the gap, temporarily not chaotic, and had an advantage.

The spearmen in the front row could vaguely see that the tower was close at hand, and they could also see more than a dozen luxuriously dressed Chu people being guarded by the last elite guards in the center.

The spearmen have already started to get excited, knowing that each of these people in front of them is a prince and nobleman, and each of them was once incomparable to such a humble life as himself.

The Mohist said that people, regardless of age, high or low, are all ministers of the Emperor of Heaven, so everyone is equal.

And at this moment, these spearmen are sure that this statement is true!If he wanted to, he could kill the king of Chu and those nobles who once sounded unapproachable after one blow.

At this moment, there is no high or low!
Hundreds of years of rules and rituals have been established, this is the first time that common people and princes are so close!
