212 I bet you don't
"Kill!"
Outside Biyang City, the shouts of killing sounds shook the sky.
More than 50,000 people attacked the city, and the momentum was extremely spectacular.
Although Li Wanxiong ordered people to fire ten rounds of guns and overthrow thousands of thieves, the thieves still showed no sign of retreat.
After they approached the city wall a hundred steps, they even played the decent rain of arrows to suppress them. Many people unloaded the longbows on their backs and shot them hard on the city wall. The arrows really fell like rain, densely packed, without any interruption.
Li Wanxiong had no choice but to let his soldiers lean under the arrow pile first to avoid it.
The defenders on the city wall suddenly seemed to disappear, and a figure disappeared.
Gao Yingxiang held his eyes and glanced at him for a while, then let it go and said excitedly: "Zaoer, your supervisor team is really good. If it were the past, these guys would have run back long ago."
Li Zicheng looked at the rebel soldiers who were rushing towards the city wall in front of him and said viciously: "These guys, following us, drink spicy food, and they are as cowardly as their grandson when fighting. They only know how to escape. Humph, how can they do such a good thing? If you don't fight hard, where can you get food and where can you get drink!"
Gao Yingxiang couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, where can we eat and drink if we don't fight hard! I heard that Nanyang is a rare and rich place. No wonder these guys took Nanyang in front of us and blocked us from here to Nanyang. When we take this Bitong, we must let them spit out all the things they stolen."
At this moment, the ladders were all on the city wall, and the soldiers of the rebel army began to climb up crazily. It seemed that the city of Biyang was about to be taken down, and it seemed that the rebel army was stolen by the rebel army, and it seemed that they were about to get the things they stolen.
I just don’t know how much food and treasure these guys have snatched.
Gao Yingxiang was dreaming with excitement on his face, but Li Wanxiong curled his lips, put down his telescope, and ordered lightly: "Send the order and order all spearmen to prepare for thunder."
They didn't bring a cannon, but they still brought a lot of thunder. This thing is a powerful weapon to defend the city. Not to mention a thief, officers and soldiers may not be able to withstand it.
Just when Gao Yingxiang thought Biyang City was about to be taken down, a pile of black things suddenly flew out from the city wall.
"Boom boom boom" With a loud noise, all the rebel soldiers gathered under the city wall, including those who had climbed the ladder, fell to the ground and howled wildly.
What is this?
He didn't understand what was going on, and another water curtain splashed on the city wall.
Immediately afterwards, another pile of torches was thrown away.
Not good, it's tinea oil!
Sure enough, in an instant, all the ladders, including the rebels next to the ladders, were lit, and the entire city wall turned into a wall of fire.
this!
Seeing this, Gao Yingxiang was stunned.
Fortunately, Li Zicheng was not confused yet.
The ladders were burned down, so the city walls would definitely not be able to go up.
He could only sigh helplessly: "Uncle, why don't we call the gold and withdraw our troops first?"
Gao Yingxiang then reacted and shouted anxiously: "Hurry, hurry up, sound the gold, stop the troops."
"Bangbangbangbang", a sound of gongs sounded, and the rebels immediately turned around and retreated frantically.
The ones who were not injured ran fast and ran back in a while, but the ones who were injured staggered and couldn't get up any faster. Many of them were even in pain and crawled on the ground and couldn't even stand up.
Fortunately, the rebels in the city did not intend to kill them all. Even if they were climbing on the ground, the rebels on the city wall did not shoot arrows, let alone shoot.
In fact, no many people died in this battle, because gunpowder weapons are limited by the explosion power of black gunpowder. The explosion power of black gunpowder is not very powerful. Whether it is a musket or a thunder, it is good to be able to penetrate the meat. It is impossible to hit people in the opposite direction or even blow them into pieces.
Therefore, although the 50,000 people who rushed up were beaten extremely miserably, there were only a few hundred people who died in battle, and most of the others were just injured.
This loss is nothing to Gao Yingxiang. There are so many victims these days. As long as you have food, you can easily attract tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.
The problem, he can't hold on his face!
More than 100,000 troops besieged a small county town with more than 10,000 people. They could not conquer them and fled in panic?
You won’t laugh at me if you say it!
what to do?
He can't afford to lose this person!
There was no choice but to ask his nephew Li Zicheng for advice.
This kid has been the leader of the border army, and he still has a few tricks.
Li Zicheng quickly came to the simple and handsome tent. Gao Yingxiang didn't have so much constraints when facing his nephew. He asked directly: "Zaoer, you have seen the situation of siege. These guys don't know that we can't attack the city wall at all. What should we do?"
Li Zicheng naturally considered this issue long ago.
He said calmly: "The officers and soldiers all lack firearms. Even if these people have firearms, they probably don't have many. Especially the things like thunder thrown behind them, they threw down thousands of them in one hand. I guess they will be gone if they throw them a few times at most. We have to take down Biyang, attack a few more times, and consume the firearms in their hands."
Isn’t this a person’s life filled?
Gao Yingxiang couldn't help but say, "Is it a bit too cruel to use human lives to waste their firearms?"
Don’t you know that charity is not in charge of the army?
If you can't afford to spend this little, what will you do to conquer the world!
When Li Zicheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel contempt.
Of course, facing his uncle and the leader of the 36th Battalion, he would not show any contempt.
He explained seriously: "There are few siege wars that can be achieved overnight. Most of them are wars of attrition, which consumes people's ammunition and food, and they will naturally take them down. Siege has always been this tactic, and there is nothing cruel or cruel. Besides, firearms basically cannot hurt human lives, and even if they are consumed, they cannot consume many people."
this.
Gao Yingxiang couldn't help but hesitate when he heard this.
Although not many people died at one time, thousands of people were injured!
Is it really going to be so exhausting?
He hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and asked, "Is this the only way?"
Li Zicheng nodded without hesitation and said, "For the sake of the present, we can only urge troops to attack day and night and continue to consume their firearms."
Still attacking day and night?
Gao Yingxiang couldn't help but ask, "Send people to attack the city tonight?"
Li Zicheng nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, we must take down Biyang quickly, otherwise, if the officers and soldiers behind us will catch up, we will be in trouble."
"hiss!"
Gao Yingxiang couldn't help but take a breath when he heard this.
It is very likely that King Lu Yan is chasing them. If they spend too long and wait until King Lu catches up, it will be really troublesome.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, I'll ask them to prepare for it. From tomorrow morning, we will take turns to attack the city day and night!"
Li Zicheng is not a strategy at all. To put it bluntly, he is just betting.
I bet you don’t have so many thunders!
