"Do you really think that these Wei people can repair this city wall in just two or three days? Hahaha, unless they are gods!"
After a pause, Yelu Zhe continued: "Now give me the order, and the whole army will be ready. Half an hour later, the whole army will attack the collapsed city wall of Kunyang, defeating the Wei people's deception in one fell swoop, and leveling Kunyang City." !”
As he spoke, Yeluzhe suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist and waved it high in the air.
Upon seeing this, the subordinates on the side also drew out their sabers and started waving them together. While waving, they also roared.
At this time, on the Kunyang city wall, Li Ke tested the last section of the wall that was poured last night before the Khitans arrived, and couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
Then he looked at Qi Rusong aside and asked, "Commander Qi, how are the preparations here?"
Qi Rusong nodded slightly: "Everything that can be prepared has been prepared, but this time too many Khitans came. I estimated five thousand people last night, but it is obviously more than that. Now it looks like there are about seven or eight thousand people."
"Faced with so many enemy troops, our garrison of more than a thousand people was obviously not enough to cope with it, so I directly pulled most of the soldiers here. In the other directions, the conscripted militiamen were mainly setting up defenses, but Even if we add all the people together, it’s only two thousand people.”
Hearing this, Li Ke could only nod. He believed that this should be all Qi Rusong could do.
Two thousand versus eight thousand, the situation is still very difficult.
Li Ke then turned to look at Su Xun behind him and asked, "Mr. Su, have you finished making the things I asked you to make yesterday?"
Su Xun nodded heavily and said loudly: "Back to Your Highness, because the dozens of craftsmen who built windmills along the canal have also withdrawn to the city, the number of carpenters has greatly increased, so yesterday you told me to get what I got, not only was it easy to complete, but even Five more were completed than expected.”
Hearing this, a smile suddenly appeared on Li Ke's face, and he said repeatedly: "Okay, very good, whether Kunyang can hold on this time, it all depends on it in the end!"
As Li Kezheng was talking, he suddenly heard a sound of horns coming from outside the city. Then he turned his head suddenly and saw that the Khitan military formation four or five miles away began to move.
After a sudden change in the Khitan military formation, two cavalry groups of several hundred people suddenly broke away from the camp and sprinted towards Kunyang City at great speed.
However, these two cavalrymen did not rush directly to the city wall. Instead, when they were thirty or fifty steps away from the city wall, they suddenly turned their horses and headed in the opposite directions.
Almost at the same time, the two cavalry teams fired arrows as dense as raindrops, pointing directly at the location of Li Ke and others.
Seeing this, Qi Rushong immediately shouted: "Arrow attack, defend!"
Immediately, hundreds of soldiers on the city wall raised their shields to meet the flying arrows.
Qi Rusong, with quick eyesight and quick hands, pulled Li Ke and Su Xun to his side. Almost at the same time, dozens of shields were erected in front of the three people, forming a complete spherical shield that completely surrounded the three people. Completely wrapped in it.
Before Li Ke came back to his senses, he heard countless "dang dang dang" sounds coming from his ears, like a dull sound like knocking on a wooden board, so dense that it even made him feel dizzy.
That was the sound of arrows falling on the shield formation.
Soon, the sound dissipated, and the shield array retreated to the side of several people. Only then did Li Ke realize that the position where he was at this time was actually full of arrowheads.
Li Ke then looked into the distance again and saw a group of thousands of Khitan soldiers, running towards Kunyang City in dense numbers.
"What we did just now was just cover, these are the real siege soldiers!" Qi Rusong explained to Li Ke, "The two cavalry will come back later to shoot. Their purpose is not to kill us, but to suppress us. We can’t hold our heads up, so we can’t cause harm to their soldiers attacking the city!”
After hearing this, Li Ke suddenly realized that this is what real fighting is like, it is not about lining up soldiers to kill each other.
Then he looked at Qi Rusong and asked anxiously: "Commander Qi, can we just watch them rush to the city wall?"
Qi Rusong suddenly smiled lightly, and then said lightly: "You want to rush to the city wall? Then they are too subtle and naive!"
Almost as soon as Qi Rusong finished speaking, Li Ke saw from a distance the soldiers in the front row who were running madly towards Kunyang City. They fell to the ground one by one. Their expressions were extremely painful and they kept wailing. Rolling all over the floor.
Some of the soldiers behind him fell to the ground and started wailing before they could react.
In just a few dozen seconds, one or two hundred Khitan soldiers fell.
Li Ke couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this, and then quickly asked Qi Rusong: "Commander Qi, what's wrong with them?"
