Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 849 True and False Princess 19
Although the newcomers did not have to fight, if the enemy came to the wall, they could fight if they wanted and could also pick up stones to throw at the bandits.

After the gable was completed, Linlang did not completely stop the construction of the base.

She continued to build behind the gable and built something that was equivalent to a city wall. Even if the enemy broke down the door and entered the city wall, when there were more people, they could stand on the walls around the city wall and shoot those who entered the city wall, thus catching the enemy in a jar.

So now the mountain stronghold has two lines of defense. Even if these ordinary bandits want to break in, it will be difficult for the enemy to break through thanks to the natural barrier and the two lines of defense.

Seeing these defense lines, the girls in the village felt completely safe. After all, in their opinion, Linlang was so powerful that they were not afraid of bad guys breaking in. Plus, with such strong walls, who could break in? So looking at those walls, the girls felt at ease every day.

Soon the bandits arrived at the village.

They couldn't see that Linlang had built more places inside, but just seeing the gables outside shocked them. They didn't expect that someone really built something like a city wall, and made it look really like the real thing. No wonder their colleagues had failed to defeat them before. Such a tall city wall would require a large army to break through. How could a few bandits like them attack it?

At that moment, they began to lack confidence in the iron pots and hammers they brought with them.

There are quite a few people in this bandit's den, as many as fifteen, which is more than the bandits in the first bandit's den that Linlang occupied. It is considered a larger bandit's den nearby. This is also the reason why the injured bandit would look for them, because this bandit's power is not small and he will definitely be able to avenge himself.

Although there were as many as fifteen people, not everyone had an iron pot. After all, an iron pot for each person would be a considerable expense, so only five pots were bought, preparing to let five people be within the range of bows and arrows, and the others stood far away to ensure that Linlang's arrows could not reach them. As for the five people who were within the range of bows and arrows, one was to consume the arrows of Linlang and others, and the other was to use battering rams to hit the door.

If they were given enough time, they might have gone down the mountain to find a blacksmith to make a shield, but they were too lazy to bother, so they only brought an iron pot.

However, there was no handle on the back of the iron pot to use to hold it above the head, so they could only tie it with a rope and put it directly on their heads.

The effect is definitely not as good as a shield with a handle for easy holding, but it is better than rushing directly and being shot to death by arrows.

When they arrived at the Linlang Gate, five ordinary bandits came with iron pots on their heads and carried battering rams towards the gate.

Of course, they were not stupid. They knew that the other party had bows and arrows and were walking while standing, so they ran while crouching.

Seeing this scene, the people on the wall who had never seen such a situation were dumbfounded and said, "Linlang, what should we do? If they do this, we can't shoot them."

Linlang turned to look at the three newcomers and asked, "Where's the water I asked you to boil? Is it boiled?"

The three newcomers nodded and said, "It's boiling."

Linlang said to the others, "Here's what we're going to do. When they get down there, pour boiling water over them. If you're not afraid of the stink, you can add some rice in it. Pour it over them, and they'll be hot and stink. Then you can throw stones at them."

Then I told these people some historical methods of guarding city gates.

Ban Li thought she heard it from the hunter. After all, the hunter had been a soldier before and should know how to defend the city, so he didn't find it strange. Anyway, knowing the method, everyone was relieved and acted according to the rules.

Linlang felt that it was a good idea for these people to come. After all, Banli and the others had no idea what a siege war was like. Now with these bandits who also had no idea about it accompanying them, they could gradually upgrade their methods and become familiar with these things and know how to counter the attacks.

At that moment, everyone waited for those people to reach the door and prepared to use battering rams to knock on the door, but Linlang and others poured hot water on it.

I have to say, this method is indeed very useful.

Originally these people were proud of the fact that they were carrying the iron pot forward. Linlang and others did not dare to shoot arrows and thought that this method was correct.

At this moment, hot water was poured on their heads, scalding them and making them scream.

Even though there is an iron pot on their heads, the iron pot transfers heat quickly, so the boiling water poured on the iron pot will naturally burn their heads - even though they have hair on their heads to block it, it's still too hot to withstand. What's more, the iron pot is not very stable on their heads, and their foreheads will hit the iron pot from time to time, which will naturally get burned.

Moreover, when the hot water splashes from the head, it will also splash onto the people around, and when it falls to the ground, it will burn their feet.

You have to know that people of this era rarely wear leather shoes. They mostly wear cloth shoes, which can get wet easily and get burned.

Linlang had boiled a lot of water, which he poured down bucket by bucket. Some people also threw stones down from above. One person had not paid attention and was knocked down. The bandits, who had no experience in dealing with this kind of thing, soon couldn't stand it anymore. They banged on the door and quickly left the gate.

But they didn't run away. They thought that Linlang and the others must have a limited amount of water and stones. Once their hot water and stones were used up, they could continue to bang on the door.

However, some people were severely burned and could not bear it any longer, so they prepared to go back for treatment.

He was a man with not much hair, so the iron pot was in direct contact with his scalp. When the hot water hit his scalp, it naturally burned him badly. At that time, he was holding a wooden block with someone else, so his hands were exposed where the iron pot didn't block them, and they were drenched directly. He was in great pain.

Although he was lucky not to be knocked down by the stone and lose his life, the pain was horrible. So he felt that he couldn't stay here any longer and wasted his life with Linlang and the others, so he wanted to go back.

As a result, the man was squatting and walking back when he was shot in the back by Linlang and died.

Before, these people were walking towards him with iron pots on their heads, thus blocking their bodies. But now, when they were walking back, although they were squatting and trying their best to block the pots on their backs, just as they turned around and had no time to move the iron pot to their backs, Linlang, who saw the opportunity, shot an arrow and killed them.

One man was killed by a stone, another was killed by an arrow, and the remaining bandits all looked grim.

The bandit leader immediately called those people over.

If we don't come here quickly while these people are still alive, and don't kill them all later, there will be no one to carry the iron pot back. They don't have shields, and they dare not fight anymore. If we do that, it will be a waste of time. That is naturally not a good idea, so the bandit leader asked people to come back and discuss tactics before fighting, instead of continuing to die in the front.
