?? At this time, Cheng Xiaolian had no better way, so he nodded: "Pour all the remaining fire oil." "Now he doesn't know what the situation is below, and he can't let people throw palm thunder anymore, these palm thunders are going to be used when they are critical, and they can't see anything clearly, so they throw all the palm mines, and they won't be able to fight in the future.

Thinking that this mileage filial piety was also very weak, the other party was very keenly aware of the ingenious place of attacking at night, and most of the advantages held by the defenders were gone, and they could only hope for the morning dawn.

The oil was poured down the wall, and then the torches were thrown down, for the torches attracted a few more bows and arrows, and many of the defenders shot and fell.

However, the effect of burning oil at night is much better than during the day, and the following is suddenly as bright as day, Cheng Xiaolian originally planned to burn the enemy with flames, but he did not expect to get an unexpected effect, taking advantage of this opportunity, Qin Yue hurriedly beckoned the defenders to attack, and the artillery men on the rock walls on both sides of the strait knew what to do without reminding, and there were bursts of screams under the pass.

Ma Jiugong and Wen Ruzhen also discovered the specific actions of the enemy at this time, and began to greet bows and arrows or palm thunder to important positions.

But the worst thing is not these people, but Shang Zhixin's guards, they were paddling well in the water, a fire illuminated them with nothing to hide, Shang Zhixin was still waiting for their good news, who knew that those people were faintly seen in the firelight paddling in the water, and it seemed that they did not retreat from the front, but stayed here.

Geng Jingzhong soon discovered this phenomenon, looking at Shang Zhixin's eyes with a little strangeness, Shang Zhixin's face was a little unbearable, the people sent out by Geng Jingzhong had already begun to dismantle the iron cable, and his people were still paddling under their eyelids, how could they raise their heads in front of Geng Jingzhong's eyes in the future.

Thinking of this, he roared angrily: "Come on, tie up those paddling guys and go back to the camp to deal with them." "He originally wanted to behead them on the spot, but if he wanted to kill these people, these people might resist, and it would be even more embarrassing to make a fuss when the time came, so he tied them up and went back first.

At this time, the soldiers by the iron cable heard a burst of cheers, they had successfully dismantled the first iron cable, and they found that the fire on the water was not a miracle, it was stuck to the body and extinguished like water, so there was no so much fear, anyway, they were in the water, even if they were burned, a fierce man plunged into the water, and when he came out again, it would be fine.

It's just that those iron bumps are a little scary, but whenever the iron bumps are thrown in front of him, the small life is basically explained, even if it is pierced into the water, it is useless.

In the midst of the confrontation between you and me, the sky has gradually brightened, Geng Jingzhong sighed, he originally wanted to remove all the iron cables before dawn, and only two or three iron cables were removed before dawn, thinking of this, he glanced at Shang Zhixin dissatisfiedly, and was extremely dissatisfied with this ally in his heart.

Even if your Shang family speculates, why the soldiers under your command are not willing to work hard, if this continues, the Geng and Shang armies will be dragged back sooner or later.

At dawn the attacks on the head of the city became even more violent, not only at the soldiers in the water, but also at the waiting ships, and the artillery could not hit two times at a time, and eight times out of ten could always hit it.

And even if those gunners are novices, they can always find a little feeling after a few shots, but the barrel is too hot and easy to explode, so they can only rest for a while and fire a shot.

The archers soon couldn't support it, the strength of people's arms was limited, it was impossible to stretch the bowstring indefinitely, and the most powerful archers in general could shoot up to twenty arrows, or on the premise that they didn't have to use all their strength with each arrow, so soon the archers at the head of the city also became sparse.

Seeing this, Qin Yue said to Jin Ming: "It's not a way to go on like this, we can't watch them tear down the iron cables, otherwise His Highness's hard work will be in vain." ”

Jin Ming was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?" ”

"You see that their people who dismantle the iron cable, the water is not very good, some people have to tie the rope before they dare to enter the water, it seems that the water on the opposite side is average, and it can even be said that most people don't know water."

Jin Ming understood what he meant, and immediately gathered nearly a hundred brothers who were good at water, lowered the ropes from the city, and sent them to the water.

It is not easy to exert force in the water, basically no one uses long weapons, and short weapons are easy to kill.

These people are all good in water, and they are in the water, but they don't let the other party find out, knowing that a soldier who is dismantling the iron rope suddenly screams, and then his body is dragged into the water, and after a string of blood blisters emerges, the corpse appears on the water.

Immediately, someone around shouted in horror: "Water ghosts, there are water ghosts in the water。。。。。。 ”

Before he could finish shouting the following words, he was also dragged into the water, and a string of blood bubbles came out like the previous person, and then the body floated up.

Seeing this scene, the people around them fled to the small boat next to them, if they could kill people, if they were water ghosts, they couldn't do anything.

Someone soon found out: "It's not a water ghost, it's a human, you see they still come out for a breath." ”

"Nonsense, you, it must be water ghosts, they can stay in the water for so long, they must be water ghosts, I heard that water ghosts are all human, and they naturally look like people."

The people around all nodded, and one of them hurriedly said: "When we were at the beach before, there were people who could stay in the water for a day, they were not water ghosts, you cut them and bleed like that, I'll give you a try." ”

Then he stretched out his knife and jumped into the water, but his fists were no match for his four hands, and in a few moments he was behind several of his comrades.

The people around were all frightened for a while, and they all hid in the boat and refused to touch the water, for fear of being dragged into the water by the water ghosts.

Geng Jingzhong saw the strange phenomenon in front of him and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Lord Qiqi, they say that there are water ghosts in the water!"

"Nonsense, tell them not to attack again, military law will be engaged!"

The soldiers in front were all in a dilemma when they heard this, even if they let them attack the army several times their size, it didn't matter, but they really didn't have any way to deal with the water ghosts in the water, so although they heard the order, almost no one carried it out.

Geng Jingzhong immediately gave his personal sword to the captain of the guard beside him: "You take a small boat to the front, whoever dares to fear difficulties will not be killed!" ”

The captain of the guard took the sword and rode forward in a small boat, and when he got there, he immediately killed three heads: "The prince said, if you don't move forward if you are afraid of the enemy, you will not be killed!" There's no water ghost in the water at all. ”

A person in the crowd muttered: "It's not a water ghost, why don't you dare to go into the water yourself." ”
