567. We don't want to die
The moat outside the city of Anhui County is also four or five steps wide, plus the connection to the Wanshui River, the moat water is also flowing living water, so it is indeed not a matter of time to fill in the passage that is enough for the follow-up army to rush to the city wall and climb the siege.
Although the Zhu Wei auxiliaries who were responsible for filling the moat had a cave house car to protect their safety, they also limited their movements to a certain range, which also affected their work speed.
But relative to life, stability is the safest, as for time or something, it doesn't matter to these auxiliaries who fill in the moat, as long as the commander on their side doesn't urge them.
So they just followed the moat filling method they had trained before, and moved unhurriedly, so that after about half an hour, a passage had been filled out of the moat.
But at this time, the gate of Anhui County suddenly opened, and a group of dead soldiers who seemed to be criminals in prison uniforms rushed out with swords and shields in their hands.
"Kill! Come on! "Wow, ah, ah! "A certain family will eat your flesh and drink your blood!" ”
These dead soldiers let out a messy cry in their mouths, and I don't know if it was to scare people or cheer themselves up, anyway, they were soon running in a mess, obviously not from the army, they were completely rabble.
It seems that Liu Ye seems to have selected some felons from the death row in the city, gave promises and benefits, and let them act as dead soldiers to destroy those cave houses, so although these five hundred dead soldiers ran in a mess, they also looked a little fierce in their aura.
For a while, the auxiliary soldiers hiding in the cave house car heard the movement, saw such a scene, and hurriedly pushed the cave house car to flee back to their own military formation, obviously this is also the way they have been trained to deal with it.
However, they had to push the thick cave house cart to escape, and naturally they were not as fast as those dead soldiers who were just armed with swords and shields, and they saw that many dead soldiers were about to catch up with these cave house carts.
Some of the dead soldiers also seemed to have fire-igniting water and oil in their hands, which were originally packed with water bladders, but now they cut the water bladders and wanted to throw them on the cave house cart.
After all, the main task they came out of was to destroy the cave house car, not just kill people, and the best way to destroy the cave house car was naturally burned with fire, and if they only used a knife to cut it, they couldn't cut the already thick cave house car at all.
But at this moment, six or seven of the more than 500 dead soldiers suddenly poured the fire oil in their hands on the people around them, and then ignited the fire oil again, which caused a stir in the 500 dead people.
Then these people began to slash and kill the other dead soldiers around them, shouting, "We want to surrender, we don't want to die, we want to surrender!" If you don't want to die, follow us to find a way to live! ”
Then these six or seven people took the initiative to flee in the direction of Zhu Weijun's formation, and it seemed that they were not willing to continue to be dead soldiers, but just wanted to take the opportunity to flee for their lives.
The actions of these people also aroused the hearts of many other dead soldiers who were born as felons, and soon dozens of dead soldiers also shouted, and fled in the direction of Zhu Weijun's formation, where did they care about the task of destroying the cave house car.
Of course, at this time, on the side of Zhu Weijun's array, seeing that there were dead soldiers rushing out at the gate of Anhui County, about a thousand sword and shield men formed an anti-arrow shield array under the orders of the military marquis and the tun chief, and rushed forward quickly, preparing to rescue those cave house cars and auxiliary soldiers in the car.
More than 1,000 people formed a circular tortoiseshell-like formation in groups of 100 people, and then they also walked quickly to the city, rushing in the direction of the dead soldiers.
As a result, before they could kill those dead soldiers, the more than 500 dead soldiers themselves were in chaos, but it saved them a lot of effort, so the more than 500 dead soldiers killed from Anhui County, that is, one or two cave house cars were sprinkled with fire oil and burned flames, but the other cave house cars had already taken the opportunity to get rid of the pursuit of the dead soldiers and quickly fled to the army formation.
However, the defenders of Liu Xun on the city wall also began to shoot feather arrows under the city at this moment, at first they were aimed at the Zhu Wei soldiers who formed a shield array to rush up, and then when they saw the dead soldiers who were in rebellion, there were also archers who shot feather arrows at them.
At this moment, the scene in front of the city looked very chaotic.
Those dead soldiers who were originally encouraged to come out and fight desperately suddenly encountered internal changes, and many people no longer had the heart to die, and at this time they naturally had all kinds of thoughts.
Some people who are active, followed by the original six or seven people who want to throw themselves to Zhu Weijun's side, and some people don't care about anything else at all, they just want to take the opportunity to run for their lives, anyway, they are already out of the cage, and they can't go anywhere in the world.
As a result, at least half of the more than 500 dead soldiers have lost the heart to continue the sabotage mission.
There are still some dead soldiers who still want to make meritorious service and atone for their sins because their families are in Anhui County, but things change too quickly, even if they still want to chase those cave house cars, they are stopped by other chaotic dead soldiers.
Then, after the sword and shield hands on Zhu Wei's side rushed up, they had fewer chances.
And Liu Xun's soldiers on the city wall may not be able to distinguish which dead soldiers still want to carry out the task at this time, those dead soldiers are trying to escape, so they just shoot arrows indiscriminately, but there are many dead soldiers who still have the heart to carry out the task, and they died under the feather arrows of their own people.
As a result, the remaining dead soldiers who did not want to leave Anhui County could only flee in the direction of the gate of Anhui County.
Of course, more dead soldiers escaped from the range of the city's bows and arrows, and they fled for their lives regardless of it, and some of them really took the initiative to flee to the side of Zhu Wei's army, and it seemed that they wanted to surrender to Zhu Wei's army.
Among the six or seven people who initially disturbed the momentum of the dead soldiers, a few of them rushed to the Zhu Wei rescue soldiers who formed the tortoiseshell array, took out some tokens representing their side, and indicated their identity as the school office, so they hid in the tortoiseshell array composed of these sword and shield hands to ensure that they would not be shot by the feather arrows on the city wall.
Then these school affairs arranged by Liu Ye to come out to summon the interrogation, under the protection of these sword and shield hands, followed the withdrawn cave house cars, and returned to the Zhu Weijun array outside the range of bows and arrows.
Of course, someone reported the news of these people to Pang Yan.
Pang Yan didn't make a special move, but just sent these people and other dead soldiers who also came to surrender to the rear Zhu Wei's own army formation, anyway, these people were handed over to Zhu Wei's side to deal with.
After sending these people away, the 500 dead soldiers killed in Anhui County basically died and fled, and there was nothing left.
As for Zhu Wei's more than ten cave house cars, that is, two of them caught fire, but the fire could still be controlled, and it didn't take long for the auxiliary soldiers of the controlled car to extinguish the flames with mud and sand, and they could be used again......
