Shouchun, the north gate, the head of the city.

Liu Yu was still sitting on the bed in front of the city tower, a pair of shining eyes behind the mask, shining, more than twenty guards holding iron shields, blocking in front of him, forming a shield wall composed of iron shields under his nose, but did not block his sight.

Five hundred paces away, the bed crossbow was constantly roaring and shooting, and rows of flying lances rained into the city wall, and almost every time the flying lance hit the city wall, it would shake slightly, and the floating ash on the corners of the city tower on the head, and the soil that had been smeared on the pillars a few days ago, were also falling slightly.

Of course, these well-known voices, in this huge roar, were completely drowned out and could not be heard at all.

Finally, the roar of the bed crossbow came to an end, the sound of the catapult's arm falling, and the sound of the flying stones whistling sounded again, and soon the outside of the city was full of the sound of the flying stones hitting the curtain, "poof", like a defeated leather, and then the sound of the splash when the boulder kept falling into the moat.

Zhu Lingshi's voice sounded from the corridor on the side: "Master, Master, I'm here." ”

Liu Yu's brows furrowed slightly, turned his head to look at Zhu Lingshi, who was sweating profusely and rushed to the city, and said in a deep voice: "Lingshi, what are you doing, I told you to stay under the city, listen to my orders, what are you doing running up to the city?" ”

Zhu Lingshi stuck out his tongue: "Master, Chaoshi is guarding under the city, it's okay, just now we heard the sound of the city, the city walls are shaking, we are very worried, I just came up to take a look, anyway, if there is me by the master's side, there will be more errand runners." ”

Liu Yu sighed: "Your art of war has been read into the belly of a dog, don't you know the reason that this military discipline is strict and you must not leave your post without permission?" If it were a field battle, I would be able to kill you by now. ”

Zhu Lingshi said with a smile: "Okay, Master, isn't this a field battle, I am also on the order of General Xu, seeing that your city has not moved for a long time, I just came up to take a look, besides, didn't you promise us that you would teach us the art of war when we fight?" If I were inside this wall, how would I learn how to defend it? ”

Liu Yu shook his head helplessly: "You kid, flamboy, I don't think I can be a general in the future, it's good to be a civil official." That's it, since you're already here, I won't say anything, but this time, not the next one, if you leave your post without permission, I can only engage in military law. ”

Zhu Lingshi laughed: "I know that the master is the most brotherly." ”

As he was talking, suddenly, with a "woo", a flying stone the size of a watermelon flew from a height of about a zhang on Zhu Lingshi's head, with a strong whistling sound, and fell far into the city wall.

Zhu Lingshi's face changed, and he said strangely: "Why did this stone hit so far?" ”

Liu Yu shook his head: "The attack distance of these catapults is random, sometimes, if this arm pulls extremely quickly and powerfully, it will hit the city wall at a distance of six hundred steps, like this stone, however, generally speaking, the vast majority of flying stones can only hit the distance of the city wall, we have these curtains to resist, can effectively unload the momentum of most flying stones, and protect our city wall." ”

Zhu Lingshi nodded: "I see, it's just that what are those weapons that have just been able to make the city walls shake?" It's not this kind of flying stone. ”

Liu Yu waved his hand, pointed to the city wall in front of him, and said, "Old knife, you can see the top of the city wall." ”

Zhu Lingshi poked out his head and walked out of the battlement outside the female wall, and his face changed suddenly, because on this city wall, there were hundreds of flying lances of different sizes, and the depth of the wall was as much as half a foot, he withdrew his body and stuck out his tongue: "What kind of weapon is this, can it enter the city wall?" ”

Liu Yu pointed to the twenty bed crossbows that were being raised by the crossbowmen five hundred steps away, and said, "This is the thing, I heard Xuan Shuai say, it is called the bed crossbow." ”

Zhu Lingshi's face changed, and he was about to speak, only to hear a horn sound on the opposite side, dozens of wrestlers holding giant hammers, fiercely picked up the giant hammer, and the sound of the mechanism being smashed, "click, click", endlessly, and countless flying lances, flying all over the sky, flew directly towards the city.

"Boom" and "pop" and the like are endless, the screaming sound when the flying lance crosses the sky, just like the missile launch of later generations, or the air defense alarm, shocks people's internal organs are shaking, many flying lances hit the battlements of the city wall, these dozens of pounds of the city head battlements, hit the cracks, together with these flying lances, fell down the city wall heavily, half a day, only to hear the sound of landing.

A long lance with black pressure flew straight towards the position of Zhu Lingshi and Liu Yu, and several sergeants shouted: "Lord Liu Gong beware!" Before the words fell, they flew in front of Liu Yu and tightly blocked the two Liu Yu brothers with their bodies and iron shields.

Zhu Lingshi was so frightened that his face turned white, hugged his head, and hurriedly squatted down, only to hear the sound of "Peng", which was the sound of the flying lance hitting the iron shield, a guard in front of him, and the iron shield he was holding hit this lance fiercely, screaming, the whole person flew up and hit the pillars of the city tower behind.

I only heard a strange sound of "click", as if his back was broken, and the whole person vomited a mouthful of blood, and fainted, unconscious, and a few squatting soldiers on the side hurriedly set him up and ran down the city wall quickly.

A burst of dust fell, it was the floating ash above the city tower, and under this impact, it shook off violently, and poured Liu Yu and more than ten guards around him into a dusty face, but they all maintained a posture of sitting or squatting upright, like a clay carved wood sculpture, and they didn't move.

Liu Yu sighed, stretched out his hand, patted the floating ash on Zhu Lingshi's head and on the top of his head, and said indifferently: "Lingshi, for the general, you need Mount Tai to collapse in front of you without changing your color, on the battlefield, the arrows and stones are flying sideways, and you can't stand it when you fly, how can you sit here to stabilize the army's heart." If this lance is destined to take your life, even if you hide in the deep palace, you won't be able to escape this one. ”

Zhu Lingshi's face was flushed, he stood up, and said loudly: "What Master taught me is that I am timid, and from now on, even if I pierce a hole in a lance, I will never move." The flying lances in the sky kept flying over his head and around him, but Zhu Lingshi gritted his teeth, stood still, and didn't move.

Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction: "This is our Dajin man." Brothers, hold firmly, stand still like a mountain, and prepare for the enemy infantry to attack the city! ”
