【Chapter 132】Forcibly attacking the fortifications is completely sending them to death!
Sobud couldn't help but be a little suspicious, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that Xu Xingxia should have no reason to please himself. Sending a letter of persuasion is just a procedure for getting used to the surname, and Sobud is not naïve enough to think that Xu Xingxia will really raise his hand and surrender. After listening to the explanation of the Han slaves, he said to Paro Ge: "Is this Xu Xingxia showing favor to me?" ”
Parocco shook his head and said, "I don't think so!" However, we can send someone up to make sure! If he really wants to surrender, he will show it with real actions! ”
He immediately sent three Tatar cavalry and rushed towards Fort Weizhen. What he meant was to ask Xu Xingxia to open the city gate and let the Tatar cavalry enter the city, if the other party really had the heart to show goodwill.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
As a result, a black-feathered arrow flew in, and the Tatar cavalry who led it immediately fell headlong. The other two Tatar cavalrymen, feeling bad, hurriedly turned their horses and fled. However, their movements were fast, and Xu Xingxia's Black Feather Arrow was even faster. Two more arrows flew over, and the two Tatar cavalry swooped down in succession.
"Damn it!"
Sobud and Paroce's faces changed suddenly.
It seems that the turtle that Xu Xingxia responded to didn't seem to have any intention to please them! What's even worse is that Xu Xingxia used his black feather arrow to prove once again that whoever wants to get close to Weizhen Fort will have to pay the price of blood.
"Attack!" Sobud shouted angrily.
"Prince, please wait." Paro Pavilion said calmly.
"Xu Xingxia is humiliating us!" Sobud said stupidly.
"I know. However, we need to plan in detail how to attack. Fort Willtown seemed ready to resist. With an archery master like Xu Xingxia, if we want to take Weizhen Fort, I'm afraid it won't be easy. We have to plan how to launch an attack in order to win it as quickly as possible. Paro Pavilion said steadily.
"What do you mean?" Sobud asked with a frown. After all, Paro Pavilion is an old and respected Helkin tribe warrior, and his opinion is still very pertinent. Tackling tough problems is a technique, and Sobud himself does not know much about this technique.
Paro Ge said methodically: "Xu Xingxia's archery skills are so strong, if we only attack from one direction, there will definitely be a large number of casualties, and maybe he will be killed back directly." We must blossom on all sides, attack together from four directions, and forcibly attack the city, so that Xu Xingxia will not be able to keep it busy. ”
Sobud nodded and said, "Okay, just do it!" ”
Paroc said, "Prepare twenty ladders, and we can attack." ”
Sobud nodded and said in a deep voice, "You can arrange it!" ”
Paro Pavilion nodded and deployed himself.
......, "My lord, you gave the Tartar a turtle back, and you say, will the Tartar be annoyed and angry and pounce all at once?" Chi Hu suddenly asked. In fact, these issues are not of concern to them. It's just that their psychological pressure is indeed very great. If you don't speak, you can't relieve the pressure in your heart.
"I don't know. However, if the Tartars come up together, we will be better able to deal with them. Brothers, are you ready with explosives packs? Remember how to use the explosives pack, right? When the Tartars swarm up, we'll greet them with explosives packs. Xu Xingxia replied quietly.
Faced with the pressure of the Tartar army, Xu Xingxia also had psychological pressure. However, with the shooting of four black feather arrows, his psychological pressure is gradually being released. Many people say that fighting is the best doping, and this is absolutely true. Once he really entered the combat state, Xu Xingxia didn't feel any tension and pressure.
"Yes." Chi Hu said eagerly. At various locations on the walls of Fort Will, earthen explosive packs were prepared. These are the places where the Tatars are most likely to launch a strong attack. In particular, the southwest corner of Fort Weizhen had the largest number of explosives packs, with twenty or thirty of them.
Before, the soldiers of the white-clothed army had learned how to use the explosive bag, and they had also seen the terrifying power of the explosive bag. A fifteen-pound bag of explosives is enough to blow everything in a three-zhang (about 10-meter) radius to pieces. If a large number of Tartars try to pour up, a bag of explosives goes down, enough for the Tartar eggs to hurt. A few more explosives were packed, and the casualties of the Tartars would be very considerable.
Xu Xingxia, who came from later generations, keenly grasped the Achilles heel of the Tartars: their population was very limited. A thousand-strong team of Tartars, in the field, is indeed very strong. However, if it is used to attack fortifications, it is not very attractive. Distributed in four directions, there are only two or three hundred people in each direction. His strategy, in fact, was very simple, that is, to inflict as many casualties as possible on the Tartars, forcing them to retreat.
Generally speaking, Tartars are still more sensitive to casualties. They had to be sensitive. Their population is not large in the first place, and one death counts as one. Xu Xingxia judged that if it was necessary to pay a price of more than 300 people for attacking Weizhen Fort, the Tartars would basically stop doing it. If you have to pay the price of five hundred, even Hellerkin can't afford it.
The fighting willpower of the Tartars is indeed much higher than that of the Ming army. But, after all, they are people. As long as it is human, it will be afraid, it will be afraid, and it will collapse. If there are 500 casualties in a thousand-person team, it is estimated that the morale of this thousand-person team has also fallen to the bottom. Whether or not they can continue to fight depends on two questions. Even if it is barely pulled up, its combat effectiveness may not be enough.
…… In the afternoon, the Tartars finally launched their first attack.
About two or three hundred Tartar cavalry rode over and kept firing arrows as they approached the walls of Fort Weizhen. These Tatar cavalry, all said that Paroc was carefully selected, had a large arm strength and a long range. Their arrows whistled towards the walls of Fort Weizhen, as dense as raindrops.
I have to admit that the riding and archery skills of these Tatar cavalry are indeed very superb. Although there were only two or three hundred men, they could crush all the defenders on the city. The white-clad soldiers, as well as other strong men, hid behind the battlements. In the face of the arrows of the Tartars, they have no chance to show their heads at all.
The only one who has a counterattack is Xu Xingxia. Like a ghost, he haunts different parts of the city wall, looking for every opportunity to strike. As soon as he struck, a Tatar cavalryman fell under his arrows. Each black-feathered arrow whizzed away, accompanied by a Tatar cavalryman, falling headlong to the ground, causing a huge tremor on the ground.
"This Xu Xingxia is really hard to deal with!" Behind the Tatar cavalry, Paroc said with a frown. He could clearly see that as the black-feathered arrows flew out one after another, more than a dozen Tatar cavalry had been shot dead. These Tatar cavalry are all the elite under his command, and if one dies, one will be less!
"He can only take care of one aspect, it's okay!" Sobud said coldly. In order to make Xu Xingxia unable to take care of both the beginning and the end, he dispatched a large number of Tatar cavalry, just wanting to get close to the city wall of Weizhen Fort as soon as possible. Even if Xu Xingxia has three heads and six arms, he can't be busy.
Behind the large number of Tatar cavalry, there were also a considerable number of Han Chinese slaves, all of whom carried ladders and approached the walls of Weizhen Fort. This is a consistent trick of the Tatars, using Han Chinese slaves as cannon fodder. If the defenders were afraid that they were Han Chinese and did not dare to fight back, the Tatars took advantage of this opportunity to kill them.
However, the Tatars have used such tricks too much, and the Ming troops stationed in various castles will not have any mercy on these cannon fodder. Of course, the same is true for Fort Willtown. Those Han slaves are simply enemies, and there is no mercy for killing.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
The sound of arrows breaking through the air on the battlefield is unusually dense.
The Tatar cavalry galloped back and forth around Fort Weizhen, constantly firing ferocious arrows, completely enveloping Fort Weizhen in a dense rain of arrows. Outwardly, the Tatar cavalry completely had the upper hand, and they beat Fort Weizhen to the point where they could only parry, and had no power to fight back. Looking at it from a distance, there was not even a single figure in sight at the head of Weizhen Fort.
However, in the dense rain of arrows of the Tatar cavalry, a black arrow flew out from time to time. Every time a black-feathered arrow was fired, a Tatar cavalryman fell to the ground screaming. The Black Feather Arrow is like a dark meteor, specifically taking people's surnames. No one knew where the Black Feather Arrow would appear from, nor what it was aiming at, and the only thing the Tatar cavalry knew was that there were more and more fallen companions.
Sobud and Paroc watched from behind, both heartbroken to death. The muscles at the corners of Paroce's mouth were already twitching involuntarily. Every fallen Tatar cavalry seemed to be in their hearts, and they crashed into it fiercely. However, there is no way, they have to bear such casualties. If you want to get close to Weizhen Fort, you must enter Xu Xingxia's range. With the other party's perverted archery, it's strange if you don't kill it.
In a short period of time, more than thirty Tatar cavalrymen died under Xu Xingxia's arrows. The arrows of the Tatar cavalry were so fierce that they couldn't stop Xu Xingxia's counterattack. At this point in the battle, Paro Court already regretted it a little. If I had known this, I should have let this Weizhen Fort go.
In front of Xu Xingxia's perverted archery, forcibly attacking the fortification is completely an act of sending him to death! In such a short period of time, he lost thirty people! How many thirty people are there in a team of 1,000 people? However, he had no other way than to attack the fortifications. Will Xu Xingxia come out to fight them in the field? It's simply impossible! Unless he's an idiot!
"Don't worry, just stay close to the walls." Sobud noticed that Paroc's face was quite bad, and hurriedly spoke comfortingly. In fact, he also knew very well that it was actually very stupid to use cavalry to force the attack in this way. In the face of Xu Xingxia's perverted archery, they only had to be slaughtered. However, in order to kill Xu Xingxia, they must pay a certain price.
"Mengniu!"
"Erie!"
"Trensu!"
Paro Court suddenly screamed.
The three Tatar cavalrymen whose names were called immediately appeared in front of Paroch, and these three Tatar cavalrymen were all centurions. Their archery skills are also the best under the command of Paro Pavilion. All along, the three of them have been used by Paro Court as a killer feature. At every critical moment, Paroc would sacrifice them. He hoped that these three people could kill Xu Xingxia, otherwise, he would really have nothing to do.
"Find a chance to kill that Xu Xingxia!" Parocco said through gritted teeth.
"Yes!" The three Tatar archers agreed in unison, urged their horses, and roared away. They are very confident in their archery skills, and they don't feel too difficult to kill Xu Xingxia.
"It should be fine." Sobud breathed a sigh of relief. He also knew that under Paro Court's command, there were three of the best archers. They are highly skilled in archery and have outstanding merit. Although he is not as powerful as the arrow god Mo Yuegen, he is also very famous in the Helgen tribe.
"I hope so!" Paro Court was not very optimistic. He was convinced of the abilities of his three subordinates. It's just that Xu Xingxia's archery skills have broken away from the limits of the human body and entered the ranks of demons. The battle between mortals and demons can be imagined.
Sure enough, in less than a moment, someone came to report: "Oh no, Centurion Mengniu has been killed!" ”
Sobud's face suddenly turned blue. The three of them went out to fight, and in the blink of an eye, one of them was shot, and it was like a naked slap in the face. He gritted his teeth and said stupidly: "There is also Yili, and there is Trensu, they still have a chance." ”
Paro Ge's face was a little dark, and he didn't say a word. Upon learning of Mengniu's death, he was even less optimistic. Among these three people, the one with the best archery skills and the strongest opportunity to capture is this Mengniu. Now, even he has been shot, and I am afraid that the other two will not have a chance. Xu Xingxia, Xu Xingxia, is really a demon among demons!
Sure enough, a moment later, someone came to report: "Oh no, Iglicenton was also shot." ”
The muscles at the corners of Sobud's mouth twitched involuntarily. He is an idiot, and he also knows that the three of them are more than lucky. However, he still had to reluctantly squeeze out some smiles, and said slowly: "And Terensu." He'll have a chance......"
Before the words fell, someone came to report: "Oh no, Centurion Trensu was also shot dead, and his body was brought back by the war horse." ”
Sobud was stunned, his pupils dilated. Damn, this Xu Xingxia, don't you want to be so faceless! In the blink of an eye, three centurions were killed! Paro Pavilion next to him strode out of the tent. Sobud hurriedly followed.
The two soon came to Trensu's body. A black iron arrow plunged deep into Trensu's cheek. Sharp arrows, piercing from behind. Even if it is Da Luo Jinxian, after receiving such an arrow, there is no possibility of saving him.
Paro Ge looked at Sobud helplessly, and said gloomily: "Withdraw the troops!" We can't force it! Otherwise, the warriors will all die! ”
