The soldier who was the first to support Zhou Yi shouted anxiously: "The master has been hit by an arrow, come to the military doctor quickly!"

After learning that Zhou Yi was shot down by this sudden arrow, many soldiers around him anxiously surrounded him.

For a moment, figures were running around randomly on the city wall.

Prince Atam of the Huns couldn't help but smile contemptuously, and snorted coldly: "Anyone who offends me will be killed even though Pingliang is far away! You failed to kill me, but you were shot dead by my Changshengtian warriors!"

"Master..."

"grown ups……"

The group of soldiers who surrounded Zhou Yi were all shouting in a hurry.

They saw that the bone arrow had penetrated Zhou Yi's outermost armor.

Zhou Yi coughed twice and pulled out the bone arrow. There was no blood on the arrow because Zhou Yi also put a paper armor made of A4 paper on the inside.

During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Xu Shang, the governor of Hezhong, invented paper armor. There is a description of paper armor in "New Book of Tang": "The folds of paper are armor, and strong arrows cannot penetrate it." From this, we can also see how strong the defensive power of paper armor is.

After Lin Zhenyuan and his party fled to Pingliang County, they saw that the strange armor worn by the soldiers on the city wall was this paper armor.

If Zhou Yi didn't wear this set of paper armor today, and only relied on the light armor that was seized from Xie Baoqing, then Zhou Yi would really not be able to escape today.

But despite this, the bone arrow shot by the Hun eagle shooter with two stone bows had a strong impact and hit Zhou Yi's heart hard, almost causing Zhou Yi to lose his breath.

Zhou Yi still sat paralyzed on the ground and waited for a while before he regained his composure.

"Qian Yong, go and appease the soldiers and tell them that I am fine. However, let the brothers who are defending the city attack at a more chaotic pace and pretend to be sad. This will make the Xiongnu and Khitan coalition forces mistakenly think that I have been shot. Come on! Wait until the next wave of their troops enters our attack range and give them a good call!"

Qian Yong nodded and was about to pass the order when he was pulled back by Zhou Yi.

"You have to be careful about the Hun shooters yourself, and don't be fooled. They thought they saw me holding this big horn just now, so they separated the commander. Don't wear any obvious signs on your body!"

Qian Yong was extremely moved when he heard that Zhou Yi could be so considerate and caring for his subordinates after almost being in danger just now!

After Qian Yong left, Zhou Yi, who barely survived, cursed: "Damn it, did you just watch that bastard shoot me?"

At this time, a soldier pointed at the Hun eagle shooter below the city tower and said, "Sir, I saw it. It's the Hun holding the precious eagle bow!"

Zhou Yi said angrily: "All the soldiers in the army, please follow my orders. If anyone kills that Huns, I will reward you greatly!"

Not to mention that Zhou Yi didn't say a big reward, the soldiers were already filled with rage at this moment.

A dense rain of arrows shot directly towards the wave of people.

The trebuchet controlled by Zhao Tiezhu also roared and hit the team of people.

Although the huge stone did not hit the Xiongnu's eagle shooting hand, it directly smashed the leader of the Xiongnu general into a pulp, including his men and horses.

The Hun eagle shooter was indeed an elite soldier. Not only was he skilled in shooting, but his riding skills were also extraordinary.

The eagle shooter who was at the outermost edge of this group of people immediately jumped on his horse to avoid the rain of arrows and walked back as soon as Pingliang City counterattacked.

The eagle shooter was also lucky enough. Not only did he escape the trypophobic arrows, but he also escaped several boulders from the trebuchet.

Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and stamped his feet angrily when he saw that the man was not dead and ran out of Pingliang County's fire coverage.

You must know that this eagle shooter is an ancient sniper. He is like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, and may spring out at any time to deliver a fatal blow.

As long as this person is around, the commanders in Pingliang County will be cautious.

Although he lost a general, Prince Atam of the Huns did not feel sad at all.

Because in his opinion, exchanging the lives of a team of Hun warriors for the life of a city's supreme commander would only make a profit but not a loss.

But what Prince Atamu of the Xiongnu didn't know was that Zhou Yi was not dead at all, but deliberately made the soldiers on the city look chaotic.

Atamu was indeed fooled, and immediately asked the Xiongnu soldiers to advance forward on ladders.

Although the soldiers on the wall of Pingliang County deliberately pretended to be disorganized, the Xiongnu soldiers also rushed several times before setting up a ladder on the city wall.

With the success of this ladder, every one of the Huns seemed to have seen the dawn of victory. They rushed up the ladder with all their strength, as if they thought they could capture Pingliang as long as they rushed up from this ladder. Like a county.

When the first Huns who rushed up the ladder reached half the height, for some reason, his hands and feet suddenly slipped and he slid down.

When the Hun slid down, he was like a bowling ball, knocking down those who followed him up the ladder one after another.

It turned out that Zhou Yi deliberately let people release this ladder in order to give the Xiongnu and Khitan coalition forces false expectations that the attack had worked.

At the same time, Zhou Yi also asked people to pour a large amount of oil pressed from beans on the ladder. This is why the Huns slipped down halfway up the ladder.

When they got up again, they could only be shot into hedgehogs by the rain of arrows fired from the tower.

The first Hun soldier in the first wave suddenly slipped down, causing the warriors who followed him to fall down as well. Let's regard this as an accident.

But this second wave, the third wave, and the fourth wave, one after another, repeated the mistakes of the previous wave of troops, which made all the Huns who attacked the city feel very strange.

And these Huns also noticed that the distance between those people slipping became shorter and shorter.

When the sixth wave of troops arrived, the Huns stumbled and slipped when they stepped on the first step of the stairs. Only then did they realize that the ladder was already covered with oil. If you want to climb the city wall on a ladder full of poor oil quality, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

At this time, a rocket shot down from Pingliang City, and the entire ladder and the corpses of the previous waves of Huns soldiers were directly ignited by the rocket.

The Hun man who had just rushed up and slipped as soon as he stepped on it was covered in oil. He was also ignited by the rocket and instantly turned into a burning man, running around wailing in the Hun army.

For a time, the Xiongnu army attacking Pingliang County was so frightened by such a burning man that they froze in place and did not dare to attack again.

Upon seeing this, Prince Atam of the Huns also knew that this man had an extremely serious impact on morale, so he ordered the burning man to be shot without thinking.
