Chapter 136 Always have bad feelings

"Go up!"

Sobud screamed in joy.

At this moment, he found that his heart seemed to be about to pop out.

Damn it, Weizhen Fort is finally conquered, and his hard days are finally over.

Judging from the current situation, everything went smoothly. The resistance of the Weizhen Fort defenders was simply negligible. Even Xu Xingxia's perverted archery skills disappeared today. So far, there seemed to be less than ten Tatars who fell under Xu Xingxia's arrowhead. From this, it seems that there was something wrong with Xu Xingxia. He was either injured, lost his prestige, or his morale was depressed. In short, he was about to become a toothless tiger.

"I hope everything goes well!"

Paroge nodded and said slowly.

He was obviously not as optimistic as Sobud. He was a Tatar from the bottom. He worked hard on the battlefield for a long time and continued to accumulate military achievements, from a small soldier to a tenth commander, to a centurion, and then to a thousand commander, and gradually improved his battlefield experience. His battlefield experience was extremely rich. These rich experiences gave him a lot of intuition. Generally speaking, these intuitions are of great reference value.

When he first went south, Paroge's intuition kept telling him that this mission was definitely not as simple as Sobud described. It was probably not that easy to catch Xu Xingxia. However, this time he went south, Sobud was the commander. Some things were kept in his heart and did not say them out. After arriving at Weizhen Fort, his intuition told him again that Xu Xingxia was not easy to deal with. Sure enough, the subsequent series of things proved this. Xu Xingxia shocked all the Tatar cavalry with his own ability.

Now, half a month has passed, and Paroge's intuition is still quite bad. In the past half month, Paroge led 500 Tatar cavalry to fight in Ningxia Town, killing, robbing, burning, killing, looting, and the Ming army they encountered were all fish and snatching, and the other party was like fish or waste. Compared with Xu Xingxia, it seemed that the other party was more powerful. He subconsciously felt that today's attack would not be smooth. If it went very smoothly, it would be a trap.

In fact, the reaction of Weizhen Fort seemed too quiet. It felt a bit strange. Generally speaking, when the defenders of other castles changed to fight back, they would constantly fire guns or bows and arrows as they approached, blocking the Tatars from approaching. However, Weizhen Fort did not have any counterattack, and even Xu Xingxia's black feather arrows were rarely seen. I have to say that this is indeed a very strange thing.

"Weizhen Fort must have some means..." Paroge said to himself.

"What method?" Sobud's face gradually became gloomy. Yes, today's Weizhen Fort really seemed a little calmer. As a castle being attacked, it could not just wait for death. It is indeed a bit abnormal.

Sure enough, they soon saw that the Tatars who were about to rush to the base of the city wall fell one after another. After someone fell down, they seemed to lift their legs up and check their injuries. It was probably because of something that had been pierced by the footboard. The war horses passing by near the city wall also suddenly fell down. When the fallen people got up, they were covered in wounds. Obviously, there seemed to be some strange place under the city wall.

"Damn it! What are they doing?" Sobud said anxiously and angrily.

"I guess there is some mechanism." Paroge said with a gloomy face.

Of course, they were in the rear, and of course they could not know in time what happened before. However, they would not think it would be a good thing. In fact, there was no big deal, that was the unlucky Tatar cavalry who accidentally stepped on the four corner nails. The Tatars were also flesh and blood, and their feet were pierced, and the consequences were naturally very serious. This was not based on personal will. If you stop acting, you have to stop acting.

Influenced by the four-corner nails, the impact speed of the Tatars had to slow down. The people in front slowed down, and the people in the back continued to catch up. The originally sparse team slowly became denser. The Tatars who were exploring the path ahead had to carefully remove the four-corner nails and open up a passage for advance.

The four-corner nail is very powerful and can only play some role when the enemy is caught off guard. Once the enemy is wary, it will not be of much use. Of course, the main purpose of the four-corner nail is not to kill the enemy, but to slow the enemy's attack and make the enemy's team more dense.

Soon, Sobud and Paroge both got the four-corner nail model. Both of them secretly cursed in their hearts, who invented these things? So vicious? If you kick it, you are afraid that your entire foot will be disabled. The rust left in the foot is impossible to remove. The final result must be amputation. If other troops on the body are stabbed, you will be afraid of your life. It is really vicious.

Fortunately, these things with very rough and simple appearance only caused a little trouble to the Tatars. Now, these troubles have been eliminated. Most of the four-corner nails that were spread on the ground were dug out and thrown aside. The Tatars opened up many clean attack passages, and these four-corner nails were useless.

"A small mechanism cannot stop our offensive pace." By this time, Paroge became more confident, and his original uneasy feeling gradually disappeared. Because he felt that he had already mastered the trump card of Weizhen Fort. If the defenders of Weizhen Fort try to rely on some small mechanisms to block the Tatars' attack, it would undoubtedly be a mantis arm to chariot, and would be crushed in a blink of an eye.

Sure enough, the number of Tatar cavalry that fell down was not very large. The Tatar cavalry that followed him continued to flock forward. The Tatar cavalry responsible for cavalry and shooting were also approaching less than ten feet below the city wall. If you stick your head out from the battlements of Weizhen Fort, you can see that five or six feet near Weizhen Fort, there are Tatars densely packed with them.

Zhu Hengzhi's expression was obviously a little nervous. After all, it was the first time she had a close contact with so many Tartars, so she had to be nervous. When she was nervous, the most obvious manifestation was that she would reach out to touch her cheeks from time to time, as if her cheeks had become stiff and needed to rub them hard to regain elasticity.

Although I don’t have a good impression of Zhu Hengzhi, I always feel that she is unpredictable and mysterious, but when Xu Xingxia saw her movement, she still involuntarily fantasizes it. Why not let me pinch it for you. It is guaranteed that the pinch is moderate and comfortable... If other parts need to be pinched, I can also serve...

Relatively speaking, the old Taoist Tang Chen next to Zhu Hengzhi was not nervous at all. He stood there, as if he was closing his eyes to rest. From beginning to end, Xu Xingxia never saw his eyes open. Every time he saw the old Taoist Tang Chen, Xu Xingxia couldn't help but secretly complain, "Damn it, it's rare to pretend to be so good." In the future, I have to learn how to show off. Damn, you must pretend to be even more like you."

The one who performed the most unbearable was probably Wang Qinian. This guy locked the grocery store tightly, and he didn't know what to do if he was hiding inside. Alas, this poor businessman didn't even understand the reason why he had finished his eggs when he collapsed his nest? If the Tartars attacked Weizhen Fort, his grocery store could still block the Tartars' butcher knife?

If Xu Xingxia saw what Wang Qinian was doing at this moment, his chin would most likely fall off. Because Wang Qinian was writing a letter silently. His expression was still pious and focused. The head of the letter was: "My minister, the Jinyiwei, a hundred households, Wang Qinian, reported secretly... The Tartars had been besieging the city for more than half a month... There were no reinforcements... Today, the attack was launched, with about a thousand people... Xu Xingxia..."

Paroge suddenly realized that he was a little uneasy. The scene in front of him was indeed a bit strange. The Tatars had approached the city wall, and there was no reaction above the Weizhen Fort. It seemed that there were no living people in the Weizhen Fort. Even Xu Xingxia's perverted black feather arrow seemed to have disappeared.

Obviously, this is very abnormal. Since the defenders knew how to sprinkle vicious hidden weapons such as four corner nails under the city wall, it means that their determination to resist is still very strong. Now, the Tatars have approached the city wall, and it is impossible for them not to fight back! If they do not fight back, the ladder will be smoothly set up. As long as the ladder is set up and the Weizhen Fort is broken, there will be no suspense.

What were the defenders of Weizhen Fort thinking? Did they really lose the ability to counterattack or were deploying a bigger trap? The more Paroge thinks, the more they feel that there is something wrong with Weizhen Fortress, waiting for the Tatars. However, on the surface, there is no sign of conspiracy. Some optimistic Tatars even think that it is no problem to take down Weizhen Fortress. The rest is burning, killing and looting.

Sobud is a typical optimist. He couldn't help but start thinking about whether Xu Xingxia was injured and had lost the ability to counterattack. As for the others, they killed each other and basically suffered all casualties. It is estimated that half a month of siege would still be effective. Otherwise, it would be too abnormal for the defenders to have not launched a counterattack at this time.

Soon after, Paroge's face gradually relaxed. The conspiracy of Weizhen Fort gradually disappeared in his mind. Because he saw that outside the city walls, the Tatars had already begun to set up ladders. As long as the ladders were successfully built, even if Weizhen Fort was finished, no conspiracy could stop the Tatars' butcher knife.

"The ladder is set up!"
