When? In times of war! Six, four, six, smash out a door!
Just as the Rock Fort army below was lining up, Bai Mazi also came to the head of the west wall. He was originally guarding the south wall, in fact, not only him, but almost all the horse thieves were concentrated there, and one group was assembled on the wall, and two groups were gathered under the wall, each group was about twenty-six or seven people, ready to rotate and replace at any time.
There are three groups of more than 80 people, and this is already the last batch of defense forces on hand by Bai Mazi.
They all thought that the official army would attack the south gate, Bai Mazi had already prepared, he asked people to move the only remaining feather arrows in the village to the wall, and gave an order, and later to take advantage of the officers and soldiers to cross the river, desperate archery, no need to worry about whether the feather arrows are not enough, just release the arrows.
Bai Mazi planned to be reckless, taking advantage of the time when the officers and soldiers crossed the river, so that the officers and soldiers would shed as much blood and damage as possible.
And he also gave a special lecture to the horse thieves below, to the effect that the officers and soldiers are not all the way with us, and they are incompatible, even if you surrender, the officers and soldiers will not bypass you, and they will still kill them with a knife and hand over their heads. And if you are a prisoner, it is also a dead word, and there is absolutely no reason to be spared, so it is better to fight to the death.
This is agitation.
For these words, the horse thieves below are skeptical, but they all know that those horse thieves who were caught under Shilipu, but whoever voted for Dong Er, basically had a good life. That Dong Er didn't kill them all! Even the predecessor, oh no, it should be said that it is the former predecessor's three masters, Yelu Lihe, then Dong Er can tolerate it, is it possible that he can't tolerate us?
Even when Fang was shooting at the platform just now, some people with good eyes could find out their old acquaintances from the families on the other side.
surrendered, if you are caught, you may not die, this is something that is easy to figure out, Bai Mazi wants to use nonsense to deceive these subordinates, but he looks down on people a little too much. Of course, he also knew this in his heart, Yi Bai Mazi didn't expect these few words to make the horse thieves desperate, and he had a second trick.
Bai Mazi organized his cronies into a team of supervisors, and let them stand behind the wall, which is one foot six or seven inches wide, and the height is only one zhang, so that the team of supervisors is basically standing behind the horse thieves on the wall. Bai Mazi ordered all the supervising teams to unsheath their knives, as long as any horse thief dared to take a step back, he would be killed directly!
He did this because he guessed that when the officers and soldiers crossed the river, the damned archers on the opposite side would definitely be able to fire arrows to cover them, and those people's bows would have a long range, and the horse thieves on his side were afraid that they would collapse if they gave them a volley. Bai Mazi gave this order in order to force the horse thieves to shoot arrows at the officers and soldiers who were crossing the river when they were attacked by the rain of arrows from the official army!
To put it bluntly, it is to exchange the lives of the horse thieves under his command for the lives of the officers and soldiers.
In this way, maybe after this exchange, the horse thief will die more, but Bai Mazi doesn't care anymore.
By now, he has long been without any luck, he knows very well in his heart that his defeat is decided, it is absolutely irretrievable, and what he wants now is to drag as many officers and soldiers as possible to die together before he dies.
However, what they did not expect at all was that the officers and men did not attack the south, but made a big circle and crossed the river from the west.
Bai Mazi hurriedly led people to the west.
They were all a little surprised, there was no way to the west, the officers and soldiers chose to fight in this direction, although they did not have to suffer a large number of casualties because they were within the range of the horse thieves when crossing the river, but even if they killed the head of the wall and occupied a section of the wall, they could not immediately open the door and let the officers and soldiers in. There are both advantages and disadvantages, and I don't know which one is more.
Only Bai Mazi seemed to have guessed one or two, and his face was gloomy as if he was about to drip water.
He didn't say much, just ordered all the supplies to be moved here.
Since the officers and soldiers decided to fight the west, there was no need to put too many people to guard the south, leaving a leader with seven or eight horse thieves to watch. Anyway, the village is so big, the valley is so big, and the number of officers and soldiers is so much.
Of course, even if the position of the defense was changed because of the actions of the official army, the arrangement of Bai Mazi did not fail, because no matter what, the official army will eventually charge, since it charges, it will enter the range of bows and arrows, and it will be baptized by the rain of arrows.
Ordered the infantry to wait in place, Dong Ce summoned four large gun-lifting groups, and gave a low command, and the eight family members nodded yes, they beat their horses to the front of the formation, but they did not stop, but they still walked forward, until they were seventy steps away from the west wall of the cottage, and then they stopped.
They rolled over and dismounted, unloaded their guns, and began a series of preparations.
Seventy paces, this distance is an unattainable distance for the bows used by horse thieves, let alone keeping the right head, you can't shoot at all!
Therefore, the eight members of the big gun-lifting group are very arrogant, for fear that the horse thieves on the wall will not be able to see it, and they are swaggering to do these actions, but the horse thieves can really only watch.
Logically speaking, horse thieves should be full of anger if they were treated with such contempt, but for now, they only have fear.
Because they saw clearly what they were fiddling with.
That's it! The huge roar, the flashing fire, and the projectiles that were not yet powerful were all shocking to people, and they didn't think they could resist it.
And now, is this thing going to be powerful again?
The eight members of the four large gun-carrying groups were ready for everything, and the last one stepped forward, tied up his horse, bent forward slightly, and firmly grasped the wooden pipe on the barrel with his hand.
The four people in the back squinted, aimed, and pulled the trigger!
Almost at the moment when the roar sounded, the horse thieves on the wall let out a frightened cry, but it was not the first time they had experienced this, and they had adapted a little, and finally they did not get frightened again and ran away. Of course, this is also related to Bai Mazi staring at the side.
It's just that they are worried in vain, and the target of these four big guns is not them.
It's the wall under their feet!
The four lead bullets smashed heavily on the wall, because of Dong Ce's orders, they themselves also discussed, it was the same aiming position, although there were errors, but these four lead bullets were basically distributed within a radius of three feet.
The wall shook violently, so that the horse thieves above were a little unsteady.
The buckshot smashed into the wall, but it didn't fall off because they had smashed deep into it.
The walls of the cottage are made of earth and stone, and the base and the section two feet high below are made of stone, while the upper part is made of adobe. After all, it is very laborious to mine stones, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources, so even if the cottage is against the mountain, the wall is only built of stone at the bottom of the wall.
Of course, the biggest reason for this is not because of the laborious construction work, but because the horse thieves did not pay attention to it at all.
Their greatest reliance is on the platform outside, and they never believe that the officers and soldiers can really hit it, and this wall is not so much to defend the officers and soldiers, but to guard against tigers, black bears and other wild beasts in the mountains.
When the large gun group fired, it naturally aimed at the middle and upper walls built of adobe.
Adobe is neither brick nor stone, and even a wall made of masonry will be smashed with many cracks by lead bullets with great force, and this can withstand the bombardment of large guns? Not only did there appear several large holes in the wall, but there was also a collapse the size of a pot lid! This bombardment, not only Bai Mazi, but also many horse thieves thought of it: the officers and soldiers are going to smash a door on the wall!
