The forty-fourth chapter cannibalism (2)
Chapter 44: Brothers and feet are tragic (2)
Zaku sat down under the battlements panting, and silently watched Yan Jun, who had just cut his throat, lifted up and threw it into the city by his two companions.
As the warrior with the most excellent fighting skills under Guni, whenever the low city wall is overturned by the Yan army, he will appear in the most dangerous place and kill the opponent's most brave warrior.
Looking at the sun shining on the walls of battlements, Zhaku finally breathed a sigh of relief. The unbearable day was finally over, and there were already ten Yan soldiers who fell under his knife.
But at the same time, he was exhausted. Maybe he would be the one who lay down when he faced the Yan army next time.
In fact, he had this feeling as early as noon and could not defeat the next fight no matter what, but he always stood tenaciously after every fight, even though he had three knife wounds on his body.
A man squeezed over by his side. Zaku rolled his eyes hard and saw clearly that it was his own brother, Enshiha. He belonged to the Archery Team and had outstanding archery skills. However, when it was the most dangerous just now, he threw away the iron bow and went up to fight with the Yan army.
Zaku smiled slightly and said, "You are not dead yet?"
Enshiha replied with a smile: "You are not dead either!" This is the most popular way of greetings for the Liaodong Army. The two looked at each other and shook hands.
Zaku said: "Maybe he will die in the next round. If I die, bring me a message, and leave my son to my second brother to support me, and the servant at home will let her remarry."
Enshiha spitted blood and spitted: "What nonsense? You are the bravest Batulu of our clan, you can't die." As he said that, he took out a piece of dried beef from his arms and stuffed it to Zaku.
Zaku took it and ate it, touched a skin bag from his side and took a sip of the wine, then handed the wine and meat back to Enshha and said, "If we continue to fight like this, we must all explain it here.
Have you discovered that the Yan army was determined to capture it. How many people had died in them? Still endless. If it weren't for the dangerous terrain here, we wouldn't be able to defend it any longer."
Eunshha ate the wine and meat and said helplessly: "I really don't understand why we are going to come up and fight to the death. Didn't the scout Cao Dian say that the scout won't fight to the enemy? I'm worried that we will die and cannot even keep some seeds.
They were two Han brothers fighting for the world. Can we Jurchens work so hard?"
Zaku was shocked and looked around and said, "Who did you hear these words? If Qianhu heard them, you will have to give you at least twenty whips."
Enshiha said: "I'm not afraid of being whipped when I die. I'm afraid I'm going to be killed. Are you really going to work for the Han people?"
Zaku stared blankly at the sky, the blue sky and white clouds were not bloody at all, and after a while, he said, "I am dead, maybe my son doesn't have to go to the battlefield. The King of Liao gave us land and a stable life. I don't want to be like before.
I had a man and a woman before, but I couldn't support me."
Enshha is younger than Zaku and has long been blurred by life in the mountains in the past. He listened with a comprehension, and after Zaku finished speaking, he sighed and said, "I am the mama, but I always think that the Han people are Han people and the Jurchens are Jurchens.
That's different."
The Jurchen scout Qianhu had been staying in Jizhou Town for a day and a night. The Yan army attacked day and night regardless of casualties. No less than five hundred corpses had been left on the road not far ahead of the pass. Although the Jurchens relied on the terrain, they repelled the thirteen attacks of the Yan army.
But there were more than 300 casualties.
After receiving the order, he hurriedly gathered only 600 people and rushed to Jizhou Town. Now more than half of the casualties are in danger and the situation is imminent.
Damn's pretty face had long been blackened by the smoke of gunfire. She glanced at her exhausted subordinate, who was tightly wearing a battle robe, and didn't know when she would hold on. But whenever he thought of Zhu Zhi's lazy smile, he bit his lips and persisted.
Damn, I have been in love with Zhu Zhi for four years. But this damn prince is always close and distant. So she has never married. Ama and her brother keep advising herself: Don’t miss him anymore, they are the prince, and we are not worthy of it, so you can’t let this heart be ruined.
But every time Nima bit her lip and refused to answer.
She told her that several Batulu or Mongolian princes of their tribe were sent back by her. Guni and Katun could only shake their heads helplessly. They knew that their family was a lie, and they could not pull back even if they knew the nine horses.
The mountain breeze in the evening blew Nima's hair. She looked at Guanxia stiffly. If the Yan army continued to attack this night, then she and these Jurchen brothers would definitely die here. Nima's heart was ashamed.
Just die, he will be satisfied with the ability to make him cry for himself.
Thinking of it, Nima shouted: "Brothers, all of you are energetic and send those dogs to see the god of immortality!" The Jurchen warriors who were gasping on the city wall agreed with a smile.
Damn, I knew they were too tired and had not closed their eyes for a day and a night. Judging from the endless attacks of the Yan army for a day and a night, Damn, I also felt the importance of this place to both sides.
So even if you don’t want to make the person, you must stick here. The Jurchens cannot let the Han people look down on them.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves sounded on the mountain road after the lockdown, and the people who were locked up suddenly stared at the mountain road. Reinforcements?! Such thoughts came to everyone's minds.
But when the cavalry who had turned over the foot of the mountain came into everyone's eyes, everyone sighed, it was not reinforcements, but another group of Jurchen scouts who rushed over after hearing the news.
As soon as Dama received the order, in addition to bringing the concentrated troops nearby, he immediately sent someone to recruit the teams on other roads to serve as sentinel missions.
On this day and night, nearly a hundred people came to Jizhou Town to reinforce. Once, thanks to a small flag, he rushed over the most dangerous moment.
This time, the scouts from two small flags came. Although there were few people, it was somewhat of a comfort to the Jurchens in the closed area. Nima immediately ordered them to hurry up and wait for the next round of offensive.
The sun barely hung on the hill to the west, and the breath ended the day's mission softly. The sound of drums sounded again at the foot of the mountain. Damn it, the Yan army's attack began again.
She pulled out her saber, walked along the city wall, and shouted the soldiers who were spread on the ground one by one.
In the sunset, three shield trucks were pushed in front, and you could vaguely see that there was a rushing car with a thick layer of cowhide behind the shield truck. Usually, the land rushing car on the plains was too big, so it was not allowed to be used on this narrow mountain road, so the Yan army could only go up the mountain to log wood.
A small trumpet trumpet was temporarily built. After the trumpet were rows of volleyball soldiers, carrying ladders and swords and shields, and slowly advancing towards Guancheng with drum beats.
Nima ordered the scouts holding the pistol to load the three-eyed pistols. These pistols are the latest weapons equipped in Liaodong. They are small and flexible, with a short range. They are very conducive to cavalry combat.
Each time, he could shoot three lead bullets in a row, but the equipment was too small. Only the hundred households directly under the jurisdiction of Jurchen scouts received equipment. After only one day, the ammunition had been consumed.
Two hundred steps away from the city gate, Enshiha was chewing the last piece of beef in his mouth and quietly tilted the bow in his hand. One hundred and fifty steps, a hundred households issued an order: "Get an arrow, one hundred and twenty steps."
No, one hundred steps to prepare..." The guardian did not have many arrows, so he could only bring the enemy closer and closer.
"Let it go!" With a command, more than two hundred eagle feathered arrows broke out of the air. An arc was drawn and fell into the Yan army's team with a "crackling" sound, and a few screams rang out of the team.
Baihu shook his head, the soldiers on the assault on the Yan army were wearing heavy armor, and the lethality of the bows and arrows was limited. He waved his hand to stop the archers from shooting: "Stop. Wait until the musket is finished before firing."
The only advantageous place for the pass is the terrain. This mountain road can only accommodate four horses in parallel, and there will be an open area until the thirty steps in front of the pass.
Therefore, the Yan army could only line up in a column and could not deploy more troops. When their back team turned to the foot of the mountain, the shield cart in front had already entered the open ground.
Nima raised his hand slightly, hid behind the wall, and the musketman immediately turned around and aimed the gun at the bottom of the gate, thirty or twenty steps. As he got closer, he could even hear the person below talking.
At this time, the shutdown was silent, only the wheels of vehicles rumbled across the ground, and only the neat steps of the Yan soldiers.
Suddenly, "Kill!" A shout broke out from the Yan army's array, and countless soldiers suddenly rushed out of the gap between the shield chariots and rushed towards the city wall.
More and more helmets and armors under the wall filled the entire field of vision, and even the hideous face under the helmet became clear. Nima shouted: "Let it go!" At the same time, he pulled the trigger in his hand. The huge recoil shocked Nima's right arm sore.
At the same time, this slightly sharp shout seemed so clear on the chaotic battlefield. Nearly a hundred three-eyed muskets burst out with earth-shaking loud noises at the same time. "Bang..." Then balls of white smoke rose above the city.
The distance was too close, only twenty steps away, the lead bullets were much more ruthless than the wolf-tooth arrows. They immediately plowed out a human ditch from the crowd under the wall, and dozens of Yan soldiers were beaten through and fell into the crowd.
The accomplices behind couldn't stop and could only rumble through the bodies of the shots. Even if they were not beaten to death, they were still trampled to death.
"Free shooting, first hit the people around the rushing car!" Nima shouted, pulling up the bolt and aiming at a soldier pushing the rushing car. Nima aimed at the chest, but his hand was shocked at the moment of shooting, and the lead bullet hit the door, a blood flower burst out on his face, and his body fell down softly.
"Swoosh" an arrow flew over Nima's face quickly. The archers following the Yan army lined up and suppressed and shot at the top of the city.
The Yan soldiers held their shields and wanted to resist the fire of the muskets, but the shields were okay to block the feather arrows, but they were vulnerable in front of the muskets. A row of soldiers fell down, and another row came up from behind.
After three rounds, the ammunition is exhausted, and the hand gun is like scrap iron.
The archer stepped forward and looked at another round of feather arrows below. At this distance, the accurate Jurchens were almost the same. The heads huddled under the city were often shot and fell down, but they were protected by armor and shields, and the casualty rate was much lower than when they were hit by muskets.
Obviously, the Yan army was determined to break through the city gate, and the soldiers behind held their shields and squeezed under the city despite the casualties.
The rusher also pushed down the door after changing two coolies. A circle of shields around him raised his rusher to protect the rusher. More than a dozen soldiers shook the pointed logs on the rusher and crashed into the city gate with "hehe, hehehe" and "hehehe".
The gate of this small Guancheng has long been dilapidated. Every time he is hit, he will moan squeak.
"Stone, stone!" A hundred households shouted and smashed a stone down, and smashed the guards' heads and bloodied.
As soon as the stone made a move, a feather arrow broke through the air and penetrated the neck of Baihu. He covered his neck and wanted to speak, but blood came out of his mouth. His body softened and rushed out of the battlements, and the body slammed on the rushing car.
Zaku and Enshiha carried a piece of log and carried it onto the battlement. Zaku saw the rusher below and threw it down. Another arrow was knocked off Zaku's helmet. It was so dangerous, only one inch away from his forehead.
The Yan army archers at the gate of the city were concentrated on aiming at several battlements near the city gate to suppress fire. The Jurchens were killed and injured in the stones. Almost every stone was smashed and a life was paid! However, the Yan army was also fighting desperately, killing one of them, protecting the rushing car with shields.
The coolies below continued to crash the logs into the city gate.
A soldier guarding the doorway ran to Guancheng and shouted to Nima: "Sir, I can't stand it anymore, the city gate is about to break open.
"Nima glanced at the city, gritted her teeth, grabbed a shield next to the battlement, and shouted to the surroundings: "If you are not afraid of death, jumped down with me and chopped over the rusher."
Zaku pressed Nima's shield with one hand and said, "Grandpa, you can't go. The city wants you to command, I'll go!"
Damn, he shook his hand and said, "The city gate is broken, everyone will be finished together, don't let the mother-in-law and mother!"
Zaku suddenly pushed Nima down with both hands and roared: "Jump with me if you are not afraid of death!" As he said that, he raised his shield and climbed the battlements and jumped into the crowd without hesitation.
The city wall was less than ten feet high, and there were people rushing down below, so there was no expectation that anyone would jump down from the city. The Zaku people were still taking advantage of the opportunity to slash down in mid-air, splitting a Yan army guarding the chariot, with their shields and men.
When he jumped like this, more than a dozen fierce Jurchen soldiers on the city were full of energy, followed closely behind him and jumped down from the battlements.
These dozen people suddenly fell from the sky, which scared the Yan army. In a hurry, all the card knives guarding the rushing car had been cut over. Zhaku took the rope tied to the rushing car and waved his knife to cut it down.
Damn, watching the rushing car gradually disintegrate under the swords of the Zaku and others, but more and more Yan troops were surrounding them. One Jurchen scout fell down, and another Jurchen scout fell down.
Zaku had already been hit twice, and there were fewer and fewer companions around him. He had just cut over a Yan army who jumped into the circle and wanted to attack him, and then he had a backhanded knife, and another tied rope was cut off.
The car was squeaking and was about to collapse. Zhaku widened his eyes and pointed it at the last rope. Suddenly, the wind blew from behind, forcing him to dodge to the side, and he barely avoided with a knife.
Zaku looked back and saw the two Yan soldiers slashing again, and there were not many brothers around him. Zaku gritted his teeth and pushed his sword to fight with the two.
These two Yan soldiers were both general flags, and they had some kung fu. In addition, Zaku's strength was weak after fighting for a day. They were forced to have only the ability to resist but no fight back.
After a moment of fighting, he caught a glimpse of the last companion being chopped to the ground, and chopped three or four knives down to chop the man into meat paste.
Zaku knew that if he didn't fight at this time, the task would not be completed. Zaku roared and used all his strength to block the Modao on the right, twisted his body, and slashed towards the car, "bounced" the last bundle of ropes that broke down accordingly.
At the same time, another Mo knife had already cut into Zaku's vest.
Chapter completed!
