The military morale of the Hu people was suddenly in chaos.
The Hu people who went up the ladder were a little cautious, fearing that if they made too big a move, something might happen to the ladder, they would fall to their death.
But Li Qiao didn't do anything to these ladders at this moment.
The reason why he only destroyed the trebuchet and the crossbow but not the siege vehicle and the ladder just now was because he wanted the barbarians to attack the city. If the barbarians continued to attack the city, Da Sheng would be able to kill many barbarians with the advantage of the location. .
If he had just destroyed the ladders and siege engines, the barbarians would most likely run away.
The barbarians ran away this time, but they will definitely come back next time.
But he is going back to Shengjing.
Once he returns to Shengjing, Da Sheng will have no choice but to fight head-on with the barbarians, and many soldiers will be killed or injured.
Therefore, he didn't do anything to the ladders or siege vehicles just now, he just put water drops into these weapons - if the barbarians really ran away, then he would definitely break these weapons.
The barbarians are not weeds and cannot grow again in the spring breeze. If he kills one more barbarian at this time, he will lose one of the prosperous soldiers in the future.
However, the threat of siege engines was too great, and the gate of the border city could not withstand the repeated collisions of eight siege engines, so he disabled the siege engines first and kept the ladder temporarily.
His purpose is to consume the barbarians.
Now, even if some barbarians climb the ladder onto the city tower, they will be chopped down immediately by Da Sheng's soldiers. In this case, of course more barbarians will be killed.
Nothing happened to the ladder, but the Hu people had a serious psychological shadow. Every Hu man who climbed the ladder was frightened and subconsciously relaxed their movements.
The barbarians did not climb so fast, and Da Sheng's soldiers were more relaxed when throwing rolling logs and stones.
In this way, the two sides fought for about half an hour, and the supplies of rolling wood, stone, gold juice and other supplies on Dasheng's side were almost exhausted.
It’s not that Dasheng doesn’t have enough supplies.
But the Hu people used too many ladders this time.
In the past, the Hu people only came with a dozen ladders, but now seventy of them suddenly came. The materials such as rolling logs and stones stored in Da Sheng were consumed extremely quickly. It was considered good to be able to last for less than half an hour.
As for shooting enemies with ordinary bows and arrows, this is a bit dangerous.
If you shoot an enemy with a bow and arrow, you need to stick your head out, which is easy to be shot by a barbarian with a bow and arrow.
The Hu people not only used ladders to attack the city, but also a large number of Hu people carrying bows and arrows staring closely at the tower. Once Da Sheng's soldiers poked their heads out, what was waiting for them was a dense barrage of arrows from the Hu people.
Chang Wuchang's face was gloomy, and he shouted, asking the soldiers on the city wall to hold on to their swords, guns, bows, arrows, spears and other weapons. If the enemy rushed up, they would be killed immediately.
Without the most threatening rolling logs and stones, the barbarians came up much faster.
However, the soldiers on Dasheng's side were not vegetarians, and the two sides started a close fight on the tower.
Chang Wuchang is like the God of War coming down to earth. He grabs a Mo Dao and strikes out extremely fast, one knife at a time, as neatly as chopping melons and vegetables.
He guarded two ladders by himself, and all the barbarians who came up from these two ladders were killed by him.
Although Li Qiao was standing in the corner, there was a ladder one meter away from him. Now the Hu people climbed up. Chang Wuchang didn't need to speak. Li Man and the others pulled Li Qiao back, and then several members of the Guards Rushed forward.
Naturally, the guards hated the barbarians deeply, and they showed no mercy in chopping them up.
Li Qiao was not idle either. He stared at the entire tower to see which barbarian was stronger, so he used water drops to make his feet slip. This slippery gap was enough for Da Sheng's soldiers to hit him.
When the barbarians were squeezing up to the tower, he also used water beads to cause small accidents from time to time, lest there would be too many barbarians coming up and Dasheng's soldiers could not cope with them.
Or he made a ladder suddenly break in the middle, or when the barbarians were stepping on the ladder to climb the tower, he made some people slip their feet and fall directly from the ladder.
In short, we can't let too many barbarians rush onto the tower.
In this way, the two sides fought on the small tower for another half an hour.
Because Li Qiao controlled the number of barbarians who rushed to the tower, Dasheng's soldiers always had the advantage.
The smell of blood on the tower was soaring to the sky, and there was dazzling blood everywhere, but it was almost all the blood of barbarians.
Some of the dead barbarians were used as rolling stones and thrown at the ladders to block the barbarians' attack.
Some were thrown into the city by the soldiers. They took up too much space and were in the way!
Some of Dasheng's soldiers were also injured. This kind of close-quarters fighting requires full concentration and physical strength. Once the movements are slow, there is a possibility of being stabbed.
Anyone who was injured immediately went down without any hesitation to fight, so that the soldiers below the tower could make up for it.
Many soldiers below the tower were gearing up, waiting for replacements.
Li Qiao didn't have any amplified moves, and his superpowers were consumed slowly. In addition, he had been absorbing energy from nature, so his superpowers never ran out.
The armor on his body was also splattered with a lot of blood, but he remained still and stood in the corner. When any member of the Guards was tired, he asked him to step aside to rest and let someone else take over.
Chang Wichang was breathing heavily from exhaustion. His face was covered with the blood of barbarians. The Mo Dao in his hand had already been changed to the third one - the blades of the first two he had cut had been curled.
He leaned against the wall on the other side of the tower, racing against time to rest.
His eyes swept up and down the tower. Although he was extremely tired, he wanted to look up to the sky and laugh.
He has never fought such a smooth battle today!
From the beginning of the war to the present, Dasheng's soldiers have suppressed the Hu people and fought. The Hu people have so many men and ladders but they can't take the tower.
and!
And and and!
Dasheng only injured people, no one died!
No one died!
He had never dreamed of such a good thing, fighting without dying. Even though he was almost too tired to stand, he still couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched his thigh hard.
The huge pain made him immediately grimace.
But the next second, he laughed several times with his mouth open.
This wasn't a fucking dream.
He, Chang Wuchang, has fought such awesome battles in his life. Only the Hu people are dying, and none of his brothers have died!
wonderful!
Wonderful he wants to set off firecrackers!
He would be so happy that if he died here today, he would still be able to smile.
However, after having fun, he looked at Li Qiao.
After fighting for so long, his brother Li was standing in the bloody water, staring at the black boots with exquisite patterns on Li Qiao's feet, and he clicked his tongue twice.
It's a pity that such good boots were soaked in blood.
But his brother Li is really brave.
After being beaten like this, he can still stay in the same place without changing his expression. This is really awesome.
But at this time, he didn't have the strength to shout loudly to ask Li Qiao to go down, so he just glanced at Li Qiao for a few times and then turned his eyes again.
He has to regain his strength quickly and then kill a few more barbarians!
The barbarians below the city tower have gone crazy now. They have twice as many men as Dasheng, but Dasheng occupies the advantageous location of the city tower, and they can't kill him!
hateful!
But they have no retreat.
The barbarians who killed the red-eyed people piled together the corpses of the barbarians thrown down by Da Sheng soldiers. The ladder may break, but the pile of corpses will not.
Today, even if they step on the pile of corpses, they still have to climb the tower!
Li Qiao couldn't understand the Hu people's words, and he kept huddled in the corner without looking out to see the situation below the city. However, he could vaguely perceive the situation under the city tower with water drops. The Hu people were about to step on the corpses of their companions. Tower, this is not possible.
He took steps towards Chang Wuchang.
Chang Wu saw him coming over. He gave him a thumbs up first, and then the first thing he said was: "Brother, go and rest in the military camp. You must be tired after standing for so long."
Li Qiao sighed after hearing this: "Sir, with how ruthless the barbarians are, I think it is safer to stay on the tower and watch the guards kill the enemy."
"It's definitely safe in the military camp. But now the barbarians are here at the north gate and the south gate is calm. I'd better have someone take you back to Beijing. Shengjing is the safest."
Chang Wuchang immediately said.
There's something wrong with his brother Li's thinking.
Why do you think it's safe to stay on the tower? !
"I understand your kindness, but what I want to say now is that we threw the bodies of the barbarians down. From the beginning of the war to now, we may have killed more than 10,000 people, right?"
"With so many corpses, although some were thrown inside the city, most were thrown outside the city. What if the barbarians stepped on the corpses and came up?"
"What?"
As soon as Li Qiao said this, Chang Wuchang immediately opened his big eyes, but in less than a second, he immediately rushed to the other side of the city wall to see what was going on under the tower.
He has never fought such a battle before, so he didn't think about this problem just now!
Li Qiao saw this and immediately reached out to grab his arm: "Sir, it's dangerous for you to let others handle such matters."
Before all the arrows of the barbarians were used up, some barbarians stepping on the ladder took advantage of the convenience of being in mid-air to shoot the soldiers on the tower.
Fortunately, the soldiers on the tower were all wearing armor and were relatively lucky. Some of them were only injured and did not lose their lives.
But Chang Wuchang, as the commander-in-chief, had better not even get injured.
Chang Wuchang understood this, so he called an ordinary soldier and asked him to look at the situation downstairs.
The soldier covered half of his face with an iron shield and quickly glanced downstairs, immediately attracting several flying arrows.
But luckily he hid quickly and was not injured.
Moreover, he also saw what the barbarians were doing under the city tower. The barbarians were indeed building a wall of corpses, which was already more than three meters high.
This made Chang Wuchang's face darken, and he immediately asked people to prepare fierce fire oil.
Fierce fire oil is oil.
A few barrels of oil were poured down, and torches were thrown down, and the corpses immediately burned.
Don't pour too much oil. After all, it is right under the wall. If the fire is big, it will not only burn the corpses, but also the city wall.
Just burn those corpses so that barbarians won't dare step on them.
The corpse was burning, and the barbarians did not dare to go up.
