Chapter 540: Killing Chickens and Killing Cattle Knives

Wang Chao slapped repeatedly, slapped Ma Han on the back of the head, and scolded: "A foodie, what are you doing with so much effort?" Do you have a lot of strength? Just this bow and arrow were broken by you, and now it's completely useless. ”

Ma Han looked at the bow in his hand and said aggrievedly: "I also want to pull it full, and one arrow will kill the dog officer, who would think, this bow and arrow is like a piece of paper." ”

Before the dynasty could scold again, Su Jin waved his hand and said: "If it's broken, it's broken, let that old thief live for a few more hours, he can't do anything about us at the moment, let's just spend it here, the sun is so high, and after a while, Ouyang Zhongcheng and the army will arrive, but there is no need to be anxious." ”

Zhu Shiyong's side didn't have a good way to attack for a while, but blindly urged Li Du to attack the whole army, and Li Du also used a knife to force the soldiers to rush up several times, but they were all repulsed without exception, and the casualties were really not small; Later, Zhu Shiyong urged like thunder, Li Du just acted as a show, and the soldiers just shouted a few words weakly with swords and made a show.

From yesterday evening until today, the soldiers who tossed for seven or eight hours were weak in their hands and feet, and they had not eaten a grain of rice in their stomachs.

Su Jin is the same, the men are still suffering, and the women have been beaten one by one; On the stone mill in the circle, Xiao Sui'er, Rou Niang and others spread the cotton robe on the ground, and helped Mrs. Wang to rest by the grinding plate; Although the old lady is strong, after all, she is old and can't stand the toss, so she is a little aggrieved at the moment.

Su Jin felt guilty in his heart, squatted beside Mrs. Wang and comforted him softly, but Mrs. Wang said: "You went to defend against the enemy, and you have suffered hardships before as a mother, these are nothing." ”

Su Jin knew that Mrs. Wang's temperament was originally a virtuous and reasonable person, and of course she would not cry and make Su Jin worry at such a moment of life and death, but looking at her tired appearance, Su Jin was secretly anxious.

Su Jin sighed and got up, and Yan Biyun comforted him beside him: "Don't worry, my aunt is just tired and sleepy, so it's okay." ”

Su Jin looked at Yan Biyun, and was frightened all night, which made her also pale and haggard, but this woman still had smooth temples and neat clothes, and her face was also calm, giving people a calm and graceful bearing, which made Su Jin breathtaking; Although he is a man, he can't help but have a sad face at the moment, and he is not a little angry when he speaks.

The most dangerous time has survived, at this moment, when the forehead is celebrated, if it drags on for a minute, it will be beneficial to himself, as long as Ouyang Xiu's army arrives, Zhu Shiyong's end will come.

The soldiers on both sides were like the Allied and German armies on the Western Front in World War II in later generations, and they all chose to calm down and recover their strength, but the difference is that the three bigwigs of the Chamber of Commerce sent people to carry porridge and rice to the labor army, while Su Jin could only watch dryly.

Watching the other party gobbling up the food, the four foodies were like cats scratching in their hearts, and they scolded their mothers angrily; Tang Jiyuan ordered people to carry a big basket full of big white steamed buns on the catwalk in front of Su Jin and others, with some provocation, and actually got closer and closer; Zhao Hu picked up two pieces of gravel on the ground and smashed them out, and hit the heads of two servants carrying baskets impartially, the two servants quickly hugged their heads and fled, and the steamed buns were scattered all over the ground, but unfortunately they were too far away, and Zhao Hu and the others could only lick their lips and couldn't pick them up.

As the minutes passed, the hall had been burned and collapsed several times, and the fallen masonry had extinguished the fire, and gradually only green smoke filled it.

Su Jin was anxious, there was a fire that could block the gap between the north and the small half of the east for himself, once the fire was extinguished, it would be convenient to be surrounded on three sides, and then there would be absolutely not enough manpower, if the arrows were released from three sides, the dead body meat shield would not be enough, and even if it was enough, there would not be so many people to set up a meat shield to block the arrows on three sides.

And Zhu Shiyong's side didn't seem to move, but Su Jin knew that they must be trying to find another way.

Sure enough, not long after, the west wall that Su Jin and the others relied on made a rumbling sound, the west wall was built next to the water of the Xiangshui River that passed through the city, and outside the wall was the river bank, which could not be established at all, and it was impossible to be attacked, which was also the reason why Su Jin chose to lean on the west wall; But now that the rammed earth of the wall was bombarded with mud and sand, it was clear that heavy weapons were attacking.

Su Jin ordered Zhang Long to climb the wall to see what the enemy was doing, Zhang Long just poked his head out and fell down in fright, and then there were two 'dong dong' sounds on the wall, like the knock of a heavy hammer.

Su Jin hurriedly asked, "What is it?" ”

Zhang Long scolded: "Damn, even the bed crossbow has been moved, and it is bombarding the wall on the other side of the river." ”

Su Jin's heart was cold, and he hurriedly asked, "How many are there?" ”

Zhang Long said: "Two or three bed crossbows, it seems that they want to blast through the wall and shoot into our crowd with bed crossbows; Dog. Mother-raised, it's really poisonous. ”

Although Su Jin has never seen a bed crossbow, he has also studied history in later generations, and knows that there is such a long-range offensive weapon in the ancient cold weapon era, this thing can be called a ballista, bulky as a big bed with a strong bow of seven or eight zhang, and the power of all bows and arrows is used to fire a crossbow arrow with a thick arm, which can shoot five hundred steps away, and the strength is extremely strong; I didn't expect this thing to be in the Luzhou Xiang soldiers.

This thing is too bulky, and it must be difficult to move into the yard, otherwise once it is moved into the yard and shot into the pile, it will be a few more layers of meat shields that will always enter the game of flesh and flesh.

Zhu Shiyong also had no choice, he didn't take Su Jin after making a fuss all night, and he was also turned back by Su Jince Seventy or eighty people, the attack of the van soldiers was weak and weak, the number of his own personal guards was small, and the soldiers on the city gate could not be transferred, he was also afraid that what Su Jin said was true, in case Ouyang Xiu really brought people to attack the city, he didn't even have a report.

After thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that there were two big guys in the armory, there were originally more than ten bed crossbows, and seven or eight were destroyed by the bandits several times a year ago, and only two were left to use, which came in handy at this moment; So while he was giving the soldiers food to recover their strength, he ordered the bed crossbow to be on the west bank of the Feishui River, the river is only a hundred steps wide, this thing can just be launched from the other bank, just bombard the wall, and Su Jin and others can be strung together like a string of sugar gourds.

At that time, Su Jin had no other way, if he didn't want to be shot to death by the bed crossbow, he could only take the initiative to attack Yibo, and the consequences would obviously be the same, they would all be dead.

The situation was just as he expected, although Su Jin and the others saw the bed crossbow bombarding the wall, they had nothing to do; After a while, two booms were heard, and the wall was shot down, revealing a gap three or four feet wide.

Su Jin hurriedly beckoned everyone to disperse on both sides, hiding under the protection of the wall outside the gap, and a moment later, a crossbow arrow shot straight in from the gap with a buzzing low trill, kicking off the dust on the collapsed wall and suddenly hitting a tree trunk with a thick bowl mouth, and it burst into flames with a pop, and the sawdust flew everywhere, splashing on everyone's body like a stone hit, and the pain was incomparable.

Half of the thick trunk of the bowl was cut off, revealing the white core inside, and the dead branches of the tree were falling like rain.

The elders of the people with their tongues stretched out were shocked by the power of the crossbow of this bed, and if it pierced into the pile, it would directly plow out a passage of human flesh.

Su Jin was in front of Mrs. Wang and Yan Biyun, and he didn't realize that the dead branches fell on his body, and his heart was anxious.

The thing that worried Su Jin the most happened immediately, the bed crossbow got Zhu Shiyong's order, and began to bombard the walls on both sides of the gap, as soon as the gap opened, the walls on both sides were easily blasted open, and after two booms, the gap in the wall expanded to Zhangxu; People moved closer to each other, forming a no-man's land along the gap, and the gathered formation was forcibly divided into two halves.

Su Jin understood that when all the walls in Xishou were blasted open, it would be the last moment.

"Childe, what should I do?" Wang Dynasty Mahan and the others asked anxiously.

Su Jin gritted his teeth and was about to give the order to fight a bloody path, when suddenly he seemed to hear something in his ears.

At the same time, everyone present also felt something, and they all tilted their ears to listen carefully.

Su Jin's heart was ecstatic, his heart was beating wildly, the voice came from the north city gate, it was a noisy sound of shouting and killing, no need to ask, Ouyang Xiu led the army to arrive.
