Warring States Call

Chapter 1839 one thousand 840: offense and defense
"Give me water" In Kuaiji City, the people began to fight for the remaining water. Goujian began to confiscate the water sources in the city and even control the well water to prevent the people from fetching water in order to preserve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers. The former Mingjun has become a tyrant, the soldiers and the people fight over water from time to time, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is also constantly declining.

three days later

The fighting power of the soldiers in Kuaiji City was extremely low. Han Shizhong, Yang Ye, and Yuan Chonghuan led the soldiers who were ready to fight and gathered under the city. From the perspective of the sky overlooking the ground, one piece after another square array surrounded Kuaiji City. Chariots, ladders, crossbows, archers, and stone carts were released one by one. Han Shizhong urged his horses, his tiger eyes swept across the city wall, and shouted angrily: "Listen, people and soldiers in the city, Goujian is at the end of his crossbow. Put down your weapons. , can spare your lives, the king is kind, he will not slaughter the people, and the soldiers who surrender will not die."

The guards of the city wall are two generals, Chonghouhu and Wei Xuan. Their lips are dry. Because of the lack of water, they can't even eat. These two generals are not bad. The soldiers under their command have been without water for a whole day. Moreover, the people in the city have not touched water for three days. If a person's body does not drink water for three days, he will definitely become dehydrated.

Wei Xuan narrowed his lips, looked at Chonghouhu who was beside him, put his hands on the corner of the wall, and said, "Get ready to fight."

"Boom! Boom!" The sound of the war drum was weak, and Han Shizhong, who was shouting below, sighed slightly when he heard the sound, and his fearless resistance would only increase casualties in the end. Han Shizhong looked at Yuan Chonghuan and Yang Ye and said, "Two generals! The time is almost here, let’s attack the city.”

"Prepare to attack the city!" Yuan Chonghuan waved his hands and shouted angrily. Tens of thousands of people set off together. Today's sun is extremely strong. It is July, and the weather is at its hottest. Standing on the city wall, people would sweat profusely even if they didn't move. Coupled with the symptoms of dehydration, the combat effectiveness of soldiers declined to the limit.

"Charge" Yuan Chonghuan waved his hand suddenly, tens of thousands of people under his command waved their flags and shouted, the white blades shone like snow, and hundreds of phalanxes rushed towards the city in unison.

"Up the ladder" Peng Yue dismounted himself, carrying the ladder on his shoulders, followed by thousands of ladders, and thousands of swordsmen gathered around him.

"Charge!" Yang Ye pulled out his bronze sword in his arms and shouted hysterically. His voice resounded in all directions like a bell. Han Cunbao, Meng Kai and other generals rushed towards the city of Kuaiji.

Chonghouhu frowned secretly, swallowing his saliva, and Wei Xuan's brows behind him were twisted into twists. There are really too many soldiers in the Wu army, and their fighting power is much stronger than him. Seeing the enemy charging to kill, Chonghouhu suddenly He shouted loudly: "Let the arrows! Let the arrows go!"

"Swish, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!" The sky was full of cold arrows like spring rain, and the arrow feathers enveloped the enemy formation charging below. Peng Yue looked up at the arrow feathers above, hurriedly pulled out the shield in his arms, and shouted suddenly : "Raise the shield to defend, put it up, hurry up!"

"Ha!" Tens of thousands of people suddenly shouted, holding up their shields, resisting the cold arrows that shot down from the sky. Although the arrows were densely packed, most of them were weak. The range of the arrows was very wide, and the damage to Wu Jun was very limited. Although there were casualties, this loss can be ignored directly. The surrounding shouts of killing completely overwhelmed the screams of pain, the rain of arrows fell, the shields blocked the rain of arrows, and thousands of ladders were erected on the edge of the city wall.

"Up" Peng Yue bit the back of his sword and stretched out his hands to climb the ladder. The general did this, and the soldiers behind him followed suit. The combat effectiveness of the soldiers under his command increased linearly at this moment.

"Thunderstone. Rolling Log! Let it go" Wei Xuan narrowed his eyes, relying on his sharp perception, he knew that it must be used now, and they really had no chance without it.

"Release" Dozens of soldiers dragged the log with difficulty, one of Lei Shi was on top of Peng Yue's head, Peng Yue flinched, pulled out the dagger from his waist, and inserted one hand into the gap in the city wall, avoiding Lei Shi with his body. .

Although Peng Yue dodged, but the soldiers under Yunti's command were not as skilled as Peng Yue, and secondly, they were too sudden. They didn't do well, and they were directly smashed to the ground with blood.

"Catapult! Suppress the archers on the city wall!" Lai Huer's gray beard fluttered in the strong wind, and Yuan Chonghuan on the side stretched out his hand to stop him: "Wait! The catapult is too lethal and will accidentally injure soldiers. Send the order to let Shi Wansui suppress it with archers, hurry up."

"Promise!" The lieutenant-general at the side waved the flag at once, without saying much, shouted softly, got the command flag, rode on the horse, stared at the front with tiger eyes, and said coldly: "The catapult prepares for battle, the archers step forward three hundred step, suppress the enemy, and shoot arrows"

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!"

Thousands of archers hurried forward three hundred steps, lined up in an orderly manner, Shi Wansui pressed the bronze sword in his arms, covered the sunlight above his head with his hands, narrowed his black eyes, and shouted angrily :"put"

"Hoo hoo hoo...!" The hot wind blew the arrows of the crossbow, made a sound, and went straight to the archers on the city wall, in order to suppress the enemy.

"Defense" Wei Xuan squinted his eyes, looked at the incoming cold arrows, and hurriedly hid on the pillars. Chonghouhu held a knife in both hands and slashed left and right, knocking countless cold arrows into the air. Chonghouhu immediately shouted angrily: "Be careful! head"

Peng Yue on the city wall took off the big knife in his mouth, looked at the fearful soldiers, and shouted angrily: "What are you doing in a daze, those who retreat will die! Come on, the first to climb the city wall will be rewarded with a hundred gold and promoted to three ranks."

Hearing Peng Yue's coercion and lure, the soldiers who were timid and timid all burst out with great morale, and they rushed up the wall one after another. The soldiers were completely different from before. Peng Yue took advantage of this gap and quickly climbed up. Climb the wall.

"Rolling Stone Leimu is ready!" Chonghou Hu swallowed, seeing a wave of arrows raining, hurriedly greeted the scattered soldiers, and continued to defend the city wall.

"Thunderstone! The rolling log!" Wei Xuan pressed the sword in his arms to you, showing hostility, roaring hysterically, which brought the soldiers on both sides back to their senses, and immediately lifted the rolling log, and was about to throw it down, when Peng Yue climbed to the city wall On the ground, the long knife in his hand stabbed out suddenly, and the soldiers on both sides were killed and defeated. Peng Yue turned over and jumped onto the city wall, beheading three people in a row, opening a gap for the army. If there is No.1, there will be a second one. Ten soldiers climbed onto the city wall, took positions one by one, and began to spread out in all directions.

"Bastard" Wei Xuan pressed the long knife, seeing Peng Yue break through the corner of the city, Wei Xuan greeted Chonghouhu beside him; "Temporarily hand over the city wall to Hu Zaixing, and the others will follow me to kill the enemy."

"I'm here." Hu Zaixing took off his helmet, held a long knife in his hand, stared at Peng Yue with a stern expression, and slashed with the knife: "The thief will stop being crazy, look at the knife!"
