first-class champion

Those are all the people of the Tang Dynasty, who dares to bear the crime of massacre, if they don't fight, if the soldiers are allowed to rush forward, once the city falls, who will bear the crime.

Ge Congzhou rolled his eyes and cursed viciously: "Hit me, that's a trick, it's all dressed up by Khitan people, hit me hard."

The muzzle of the mortar was aimed at the siege vehicle, watching the gunner bring the torch closer to the fuse, Ge Congzhou's cheeks couldn't help twitching, at this time a temporarily hired city man suddenly yelled "You can't fight, you can't fight, those are our folks, I recognize them, the one on the left is my old uncle, these are all fellow villagers in Giethoorn Village on the edge of the city."

Huo Nian'er was burning like a chirp, and Shang Rang, who was on the side, pulled out his knife sharply and slashed at the cannon, cutting off the medicine Nian'er. His face turned pale with shock. They all heaved a sigh of relief.

Ge Congzhou jumped up anxiously, with blue veins popping out of his forehead, and said: "I said, Mr. Shang, if the ladder gets close to the top of the city, then we will suffer casualties. At this time, we will not be kind to women." Shang Rang said: "No, what the Northern Expedition is doing is to recover the sixteen prefectures of Youyun and save the people from the fire and water. How can you hurt your own people? If you are good at archery, you can directly shoot the enemy and prevent them from approaching," said several generals beside him. The officials nodded repeatedly.

Ordering the bombing regardless of the enemy or ourselves, I am afraid that their stigma will be recorded from now on in history, and they will be reviled for generations to come. How can they bear such a crime? On top of that, even if he escaped the siege knife today, I am afraid that the emperor will punish him.

Several crossbowmen squeaked and drew their bows and arrows, and the arrows flew horizontally, but the front of the chariot that had entered the shooting range was covered with cowhide. This kind of untanned cowhide was tough and hard, and the bows and arrows could not penetrate at all. The Tazi soldiers of the brigade approached slowly behind the siege chariot, not caring at all.

Ge Congzhou was in a hurry, and shouted: "I will command this place, gunner, hit me, knock down the chariot."

Shang Rang glared and shouted sharply: "Who dares, our soldiers massacre our people. It is unreasonable. I am the chief general, including the garrison under the jurisdiction of this general. Who dares to disobey the order?" The gunners looked at each other, not knowing whose order to listen to.

A few bows and arrows were shot at the cowhide, but only made the cowhide shake a few times. At most, one or two arrows hooked on the cowhide, which had no deterrent effect. Then he shouted: "There are ordinary people in front, who dares to shoot arrows, you can see clearly for me."

The man steered his horse back, snatched a package from a woman with a cat waist and held it in his hand, and galloped back. The woman was crying and chasing after her, but suddenly a sharp arrow flew and hit her in the vest. , the woman shook twice and fell to the ground.

The city was filled with awe, watching the woman fall to the ground, but could not be rescued, the sturdy school captain came to the city with a gun, threw the package in his hand into the air, and the sharp gun point of his right hand shot her Pierced, tall in the air, and shouted triumphantly: "Quickly open the city and surrender, and you can still save one life, otherwise the whole city will be slaughtered, or you will be like this little boy,"

Only then did the people on the top of the wall realize that the burden he was carrying was a baby, and everyone's eyes were tearing apart, even the bowmen who held the bows, their arms trembling, they didn't know whether it was from fright or hatred, I can no longer draw the bow.

Seeing the blood flowing down the barrel of the gun and falling on the ground, Ge Congzhou suddenly yelled after a long while: "What the hell are you doing in a daze, fire, fire me, you idiots, 20 people let this Tens of thousands of people will not be able to show their power, "

Ge Congzhou held up the torch, trembling like a fallen leaf in the wind, his face was smudged black, with a pair of red eyes open, he slowly turned around to look at Ge Congzhou and the others above him, and said in a hoarse voice : "The viper claws the hand, the strong man loosens the wrist, the overall situation... the overall situation matters, no matter what other people think, all the responsibilities are borne by me alone,"

"It's wrong, no one will bear it," Duan Mingyu appeared on the city wall at some point, and several people quickly knelt down, "My lord, why are you here?"

Duan Mingyu said angrily, "If I don't come, you can't argue until the sun goes down,"

"The end will be ashamed,"

"I really don't know what you guys are thinking. Could it be that they can capture a city guarded by 10,000+ people without firing cannons? Can our army of Tang Dynasty only rely on cannons and crossbows? If you have eggs, pick up a knife and gun for me , Let the enemy know that even if we don’t have advanced weapons, even if the city gates are wide open, we can still drive them back like dogs,”

After Duan Mingyu finished speaking, he left the city wall without looking back. Ge Congzhou, Shang Rang and others looked at each other with a smile, and said with a heroic smile: "Brothers, move the mortars down the city wall, pick up the knives and guns, and we will fight with real swords and guns." see the light of blood,"

"Kill..."

Duan Mingyu smiled in satisfaction, and said to Wang Yanzhang beside him: "This is Xiao Zhaner, just take it as an experience, relying too much on mortars will make them see that they have lost the wildness of soldiers, a man who dares to change his life with a knife Only the best fighters are qualified fighters,"

At this time, the siege team under the city had already dispersed its two wings and set up ladders on the city wall to start a storm. Stones, rolling logs, and lime were all used. Many people picked up the knives and guns of the dead soldiers and joined in the hand-to-hand combat. Duan Mingyu left 20 troops for Xu Jing, Fang Wenzhong, and Luohou under the city of Yanjing, and sent Li Cunxu and Li Cunxiao outside the city to carry out guerrilla warfare. An army of 20 was dispatched, but it is impossible for the small city of Qixian to put all [-] people on the top of the city. The indiscriminate bombing of mortars, but in the case of a frontal battle between the two sides, as the side that is attacking the city, it will undoubtedly suffer a lot, and the chance of capturing the city is very small.

Guo Sheng, as a pawn of the Khitan army, soon discovered that such an attack was nothing more than wasting his own strength, but it was even more difficult to explain not to attack the Khitan people desperately.

Guo Sheng took a look at the small city of Qi County, he was really helpless, he even did such despicable acts as kidnapping the old and the weak, women and children, he just looked at the city and sighed. Kindness can only be used as an excuse for the opponent, just like this, his heart will feel a little better,
