Chapter 548: The War Begins
Zahubao looked at the Che soldiers who rushed towards him in the distance, and shouted, "What's the matter, why did so many people come back together?" ”
There is nothing to doubt about the fact that the people below are captured by the Qishan soldiers, the reason is very simple, the thousands of people below shouted earth-shattering, and they are all scolding the eighteenth generation ancestors of Zahubao in the words of the deed, if this is not heard clearly, Zahubao should really jump off the city wall!
The city gate was closed, the drawbridge was also pulled up, the Qi soldiers on the city did not have to be afraid of anything, although the Bohai Prefecture City was not a high wall and a deep pool, but the Qi soldiers below had neither siege weapons nor bows and arrows that could shoot from a distance, so it was impossible to attack the city.
Zahubao looked at the prisoners of the Qishan soldiers below, frightened, and shouted to his generals: "Don't let them in, can't let them in, if they do, they will have to be slashed and killed, look at their appearance, what is the difference between them and the evil spirits!" ”
The messenger hurriedly added: "Maybe they are evil ghosts, looking at their appearance, they look like legendary ghost soldiers and ghost pawns, this kind of ghost is very vicious, I have heard of it......"
Zahubao kicked the messenger in the stomach and scolded: "What kind of ghost soldiers, the following are obviously captives who escaped from the camp, if they are ghosts, can the moat and the city wall stop them!" ”
The envoy sat on the ground, he didn't dare to say anything, but he was not convinced, the wizards of the Central Plains must be powerful, maybe if they do it behind these ghost soldiers, these ghost soldiers will be able to jump over the moat, jump on the city wall again, and eat us all!
Zahu Bao didn't dare to let the following Qishan soldiers stay under the city all the time, he didn't expect that these prisoners were released by Yang Ze, he also thought that these prisoners had escaped, otherwise how could they have weapons in their hands, even if the Central Plains army was generous, it was impossible to release the prisoners. Give them back the weapons, anyway, if he was the general of the Central Plains, he would definitely not do it!
"The Central Plains army will chase after it soon, that's for sure!" Zahubao is unequivocal.
The soldiers on the city wall listened to it, and they all felt very reasonable, since the captives of the deed soldiers below had escaped, then how could the Central Plains army not chase it, if these captives were surrounded under the city, the Central Plains army chased after them, and they were angry. What if the city is attacked, it will be really bad!
The individual prisoners of the Che soldiers did not have siege weapons, but the Central Plains army must have them, and they must also have bows and arrows!
Thinking that their safety was threatened, the Qishan soldiers on the city wall no longer had any comradeship, and when Zahubao gave an order and ordered them to shoot arrows downward, the Qishan soldiers immediately opened their bows and released arrows, and fired the first volley. Hundreds of feathered arrows were fired, and the screams below were heard in an instant, and at least half of the arrows hit the captives.
The captives neither attacked nor could they return fire. Even the clothes on their bodies were not complete, their armor was nothing, and they were shot with arrows on them. There is no way to fight back.
The prisoners of the Che soldiers are not stupid, and no matter how hard they scold their mouths, they will not bring the slightest harm to Zahubao. They fled from the wall, far away, and cursed again, but when there was another volley on the wall, they did not dare to stay here any longer, and went around the wall to the south.
There are Qidan reinforcements in the south, and the captives all know it, and the Right Shenwu Army does not hide it from them, and this kind of thing can't be hidden, so the Right Shenwu Army is very generous, if the captive soldiers ask, they will also talk about it, so the captives don't dare to stay at the North City Gate, so they go to the South City Gate, and want to find the Qidan reinforcements, hoping to settle there, and also talk about Zahubao's bad behavior with the reinforcements, so that the reinforcements know Zahubao's ugly face!
Watching the Qidan captives walking around the city, Zahubao was still very anxious, he really didn't want the captives to get too close to the city wall, now there are too few soldiers and horses in the city, it is extremely empty, and it is his only barrier, if something happens, then he will be finished!
Zahubao waved at his generals and said, "Shoot them with arrows again, and let them get farther away from the city wall, so close, wouldn't it be very dangerous!" ”
After finishing speaking, he went down the city wall, he wanted to go home, not that he missed his wife, but found danger, the captive soldiers escaped from the camp of the Central Plains army, which will definitely anger the Central Plains army, so what kind of reaction is really unpredictable, compared with the safety of his family and Bohai Prefecture City, he feels that his family is more important, especially his wife with long hair and short knowledge, although he usually scolds badly, but in his heart, all people can be reluctant, just this lady is reluctant.
He plans to go home, let his wife pack up her things, and then hide, if the city is in danger, then hide in the cellar first, and then find a way to escape from the city, anyway, it doesn't matter who has something, just his wife can't have anything!
As soon as Zahubao left the city wall, the messenger jumped out, he could be a messenger to do important things for Zahubao, of course, he was one of Zahubao's henchmen, and among Zahubao's generals, he still had a little prestige.
The messenger pointed downwards and said to the other generals on the city wall, "These people below...... No, these ghost soldiers are really terrifying, they chased me, almost chased me all the way to the city gate! ”
The soldiers nodded together, they all saw the situation at that time, the messenger was indeed almost overtaken, although the sky was too dark, the moonlight was not bright, they could not see the hideous faces of the captives in the distance, but they could feel quite terrifying when they heard the sound, so they still agreed with the envoy's words, and felt that the captive soldiers below might be ghost soldiers, at least they were not human or ghost.
The messenger said: "If you want to deal with these ghost soldiers, then you have to use fire, ghost soldiers are afraid of fire, just like tigers and wolves are afraid of fire, they are the same, I listened to the old people, the words passed down from generation to generation, will never be wrong!" ”
The soldiers nodded together, they had all heard these words, and in this place in Bohai Prefecture, it is quite widespread!
When the messenger saw that everyone agreed, he said: "The master asked us to shoot them with arrows, why don't we use rockets, so that we can drive away evil spirits, if the people below are not ghost soldiers, then we have fulfilled the master's order, yes, if they are ghost soldiers, then they will not pounce on us when they see the fire!" ”
He is a very superstitious person, quite afraid of ghosts, in fact, almost all of the Qi soldiers are superstitious, they all belong to the kind of people who are afraid of ghosts, and it is not difficult to shoot the captive soldiers below with rockets, maybe they can also let the Central Plains army see that they did not help the captive soldiers, so even if the Central Plains army wants to be angry, don't send anger to their heads!
The soldiers immediately set fire to their arrows, and swished downward, and there was a fire on the arrows, which really couldn't be shot by anyone, and besides, their numbers were not many, and they couldn't shoot intensively, as long as the captives paid attention and stayed a little farther away, then they couldn't shoot anyone!
But you can't shoot it, you can't shoot it, and you can't shoot it, and you can put a rocket on the city wall, which is too attention-grabbing, especially the city of Bohai Prefecture is not so big that you can't see the edge at a glance, as soon as the rocket is released in the north of the city, the Qidan reinforcements in the south of the city will naturally see it, and even the tribal alliance in the southwest of the city will also see it!
The soldiers on both sides walked out of their tents and stood in the clearing, looking at the rockets in the north, but the rockets only fired for a while, and then stopped, but the shouts of killing rang out, and they came from afar through the night sky!
The Qidan captives under the city were attacked by rockets, even if there were no dead people, what could they do, everyone knew that Zahubao wanted their lives, can they not be angry, can they not scold, thousands of people scolded, although they can't really fight and kill, but they can shout and kill, but it is very easy to do, so shouting, the voice spreads, it is quite shocking!
The reaction of the tribal alliance was much faster than that of the Qidan reinforcements, and the tribal leaders immediately got together to discuss, listening to the shouting and killing sound over there, as well as the rockets in the city, it seems that the war has started, Gao Niuli did not send the news over, could it be that General Yang is testing us, to see if we will take the initiative to fight the contract?
The opinions of the little leaders are quite unanimous, no matter whether General Yang is testing our initiative or not, we are here to fight, since the horn has been sounded, then fight, no need to hesitate, let alone wait and see, let the children pick up knives and guns, go to kill the deed, and avenge our people!
The little leaders immediately got on their horses, and they didn't need to blow any rallying horns, they were role models, as soon as they rushed out of the camp, the generals of the tribal alliance would rush out together!
Sure enough, the tribal soldiers all looked at the little leader, and when they saw them getting on their horses and leaving the camp, they immediately got on their horses and followed them, rushing out without saying a word, aiming at the camp of Qidan reinforcements!
The reaction of the Qidan reinforcements was much slower, and the little Khans also got together, but they didn't know how to play, which was different from what they expected in advance, the plan was not as fast as the change, they were a little confused, and they didn't know whether they should go to war immediately, and who to fight?
Just when they were discussing, before the opinions were unified, the tribal soldiers came, and no one needed to report the news, the two camps were so close, as soon as the tribal soldiers came out of the camp, the deed single reinforcements would know!
Without the orders of the little sweaters, the Qishan soldiers immediately mounted their horses and rushed out of the camp, trying to keep the tribesmen out of the camp!
The generals of the two sides fought in an instant, and the shouts of killing rang out, even louder than those Qidan captives who rushed in!
When the Kedan captives heard the shouting of killing, they were all shocked, they didn't think that it was the tribal soldiers and the Kedan reinforcements who were fighting, and they thought that it was Zahubao who went out of the city to rob the camp, and they were now scolding Zahubao, full of Zahubao's bad deeds, and when they heard the shouts of killing, they naturally thought that Zahubao was going to be unfavorable to the reinforcements, as if it was unfavorable to them.
At this time, there is no room for them to think too much, if their reaction can be fast enough to dodge arrows and run at the same time, and they can also figure out what the battle situation is, then they will not be captured as prisoners, they are all smart to such an extent, wouldn't they have escaped a long time ago like the civil officials of the beggar Baolian!
The captives shouted, killed Zahubao, killed Zahubao, quickened their speed, and rushed to the south of the city! (To be continued......)
