Section 2041 Elevation and Anti-Elevation
Generally speaking, it is impossible to fight at night on this planet, because the blocking of the night will make it difficult for many people to see clearly, especially for ordinary people, they can't see clearly what is there at night? As the siege side, the imperial army should stop their offensive posture. As the defensive side, these soldiers are nothing on the city wall. Even if they shoot swords in the dark at night, it is enough for them to siege the city. It's big. Generally speaking, if you do not have this mental preparation, you will not go to the night war. His Majesty the Emperor has already prepared this mentally. He is ready to use it. The exhaustion tactic is to make Li Cong exhausted. As long as it can turn this city into a court, he can pay any price now, and it doesn't matter if he loses a large number of soldiers.
Li Cong himself is also a smart person, and at the same time he is also a leader. He knows very well what His Majesty the Emperor is thinking now? That is, a victory is needed. If he does not win, His Majesty's own prestige may be greatly reduced. He understands all this, so he told the soldiers below, "The battle tonight may be more intense than the day. The enemy is now It's red-eye already, they must win a victory, and we must not let them win, our enemies are in front of us, and our city is under our feet, if you let them climb the city wall, our personnel losses will be very high Big, one million enemy casualties may be replenished in an hour. If we die 100,000 people, we will not have these 100,000 people, and no one will replenish us. So the lives of each of you are It is very important, and it is related to the life and death of the city.
The soldiers outside were immediately dumbfounded after hearing this sentence, because no one had ever told them these words. They are soldiers, a warrior. Who cares about the life and death of these soldiers in the city? For officials, it is even more of a problem. No one above has paid attention to whether others are dead or alive. As long as the city can be kept, it will be fine. Li Cong's words made them feel the importance of themselves. It was the first time they had heard such words from an officer as a soldier for so many years. They also feel that they are very important from the bottom of their hearts. In this way, the first time I heard it, I felt like I was full of energy. This is the first time that such a thing has been done, and they feel that they may be the ones who will write history tonight.
In the minds of these people, many people say that history is naturally written by those big figures. What does it have to do with ordinary people like them? When they put on their armor, they are the lowest people in the army, and when they take off their armor, they are the lowest people in the society. There are thousands of people like them. They are all the same in comparison, and there is nothing special about them. How can they write history? But Li Cong told them that one of you may not change history, but what about ten, one hundred, or one thousand of you? This may change history. As long as you can keep this city, the history of the Eastern Empire will be rewritten. In the future, you will also enter the history books and pass it on for generations to come, so that everything you have can be passed on. This is everyone All hope.
When my children and grandchildren study history books again, I can proudly tell them that I also participated in that important war back then,
What a glorious thing that is, maybe I was dead at that time, but my descendants can honorably tell the people around me that my grandfather, great-grandfather, and grand-grandfather were soldiers who participated in that war. The establishment of this new empire has put in their own efforts, even their own lives, and their descendants can live gloriously. At this moment, everyone seems to be mobilized by Li Cong. Grasping the weapons in their hands, although the front is still dark, they are already full of fighting spirit and full of confidence. They will not back down. They must live and die with this city. To record your name in the history books, you must allow yourself to change history.
Li Cong's words were very beautiful, and he himself gave these people a very calm look, but he knew very well in his heart that the battle tonight was indeed very fierce, right in the army camp opposite when overlooking the city Suddenly, a loud shout came out. Although Li Cong has strong night vision ability at night, he can't see clearly what's going on on the other side? However, Li Cong himself is a space magician. He can clearly know what is going on on the other side. This observation does not matter, but it really frightened Li Cong. Borrowed a large number of siege vehicles, didn't they smash their siege vehicles during the day? Why do so many appear at night? They shoot very accurately during the day, but how can they be aimed at them in the dark at night? This is also a very big threat to Li Cong.
Alas, this fierce battle tonight is inevitable. Since others have so many siege engines, they will definitely not let Li Cong's artillery point at them. These siege engines will slowly push At the foot of the city wall, there will be death one by one at that time. Today, there will be a large number of soldiers from the Eastern Empire court. They will use this as a siege vehicle to rush up the city wall. It is inevitable to fight hand-to-hand tonight. That's right, but Li Cong still has his own way, which can make this situation come later. He ordered the soldiers on the city wall to form a group of three, one holding a shield soldier and standing at the front with a big knife, and the other Two people were leaning on his shoulders, behind him, aiming at the gaps in the city wall with chain crossbows. As long as they could find the enemy, they would shoot arrows directly. Retreat for the next fight.
No one else has tried the way of fighting in a combat group, but recently Li Cong has gained his own prestige, and many people have begun to blindly believe in Li Cong. In the past few days, if all the cities were already under the enemy's cavalry according to the previous style of play, it would be impossible to persist until now. This is all because of Li Cong's personal credit, so they treat Li Cong very much. I believe that immediately the hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the bridge were divided into nearly 100,000 combat groups. Just as Li Cong said, they are staring at the gap in front of them. They will not stick their heads out, because in that case It may bring death to oneself, the army under the city wall is as many as ants, and they have no other way at this moment.
But now blindly firing bows and arrows down will find others and cause certain casualties. But Li Tong knew from the beginning that it was not what he wanted to cause a large number of casualties to the army of the Eastern Empire. I have to defend this place, hold them back, and win is my goal, so I absolutely cannot let them climb the city wall. Although I also prepared for urban street fighting in the back. But in that case, his defense will be very difficult. And the calculation is really too complicated, and there are too many aspects that I have to deal with. It is definitely a challenge for me, a challenge that may fail. At present, as long as you can change the enemy from shooting to blocking, you will come back very late. As long as you can block the enemy under the city wall, the ten days will be fine. The arrangement of the Linghu family is Based on the calculation of these ten days, I can't let the members of the Linghu family change their minds temporarily, because the loss would be too great.
"Generals and soldiers, let me start the attack now, and let everyone in the world see the fighting power of our Eastern Emperor Army. It is definitely not such a small city that can block us. The army of Cao's Commercial Bank They are very powerful, and their weapons are also very powerful, but they are a group of turtles, they dare not come out at all, they are all defended by the strength of the city wall, we will let them see what is right now A real warrior, what is a real warrior, take out the steel knife in your hand, go to put this city too under your feet, step on Cao's firm under your feet, and tell the world that you are the ones in this world The bravest fighter, His Majesty the Emperor of the Eastern Empire also began to educate his soldiers. He also knew that this station must be a decisive battle. If he can't attack tonight, he wants to continue tomorrow. It is also impossible to attack.
The soldiers were shouting long live and repeating His Majesty's words loudly. In fact, they were also afraid at the moment. The ground in front of them was already red. It wasn't the dyed color, but these Human blood, most of the blood is from the soldiers of the Eastern Empire, and how many soldiers from the Cao's House did not die at all? According to the gossip, there are 20 people on my side and only one person will die on the other side. They have never heard of such a ratio before, and such a thing has never happened even in the northern battlefield.
Although these shouts may not have any other effect, at least this moment made me not so flustered. Everyone clenched their weapons and looked at the dark city wall in front of them. It's different, last night they still remembered that the city wall was brightly lit, but now there is no light on it, as if the city wall didn't exist in front of it, and they didn't light up the mop when they received the order. This is the first time for night battles. The generals of the Eastern Empire are not fools. They also know that if the enemy is condescending, if they light a torch on their side, it will be an opportunity for the enemy. The enemy's chain crossbow can always kill My own people are now pitch-black. If they really have so many bows and arrows, let them shoot arrows. Anyway, we are all wearing armor. The effect of bows and arrows falling from the sky is definitely not as good as during the day. of.
Pay attention to everything, the enemy has already entered the range of 200 meters, everyone cheers me up, now you just need to pay attention to the gap in the city wall in front of you, as long as someone climbs up, the person behind will start Beat him down with a chain, and the other person will be hacked to death directly, and all of them will stay within one meter, because that will be a place of death, and anyone who passes by will lose his life. There will be no problems, Li Cong loudly disciplined the people below on the city wall.
According to the current battlefield situation, this tactic is indeed like this. This gap is an opportunity for those who defend the city, but it is also an opportunity for those who are below the city. If your servant has an archer, if you show your head, you may be thrown to death tomorrow, because there may be more than a dozen people staring at this gap below. Although you are condescending, others will also cause you harm, Li. Cong's method is to put everyone back one meter, so that no matter how others design it, it is impossible to have too many accurate heads. It can be set in the form of a parabola, but the IOU that falls from the sky wearing armor is far from It can be said that there are very few people who have no secrets or no secrets. Unless they are very unlucky, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to have casualties. Only one person can climb up this gap at a time. Now they are three to one. And there are powerful weapons. If you still can't win, it can only be said that there is something wrong with your brain.
Following the official's order, the 3,000 soldiers standing behind immediately threw down the grenade in their hands, and then the light of the explosion, the people on the city wall saw the people below, and they were dumbfounded . I never believed that there would be so many troops in the Eastern Empire. The people below are like ants. They probably checked with their eyes, and there are hundreds of thousands of people below. How can they not be afraid? Just when they were afraid, Li Cong's voice came again. You have nothing to be afraid of. Although the army below has tens of millions of people, we only have hundreds of thousands of people above us. The ratio between us and him may be 1:100, but you only need to see clearly the gap in front of you. This is the place where you are going to fight, the three of you have to face each other alone, no matter what you say, you will win, if you continue to imagine like this, you will be able to create miracles tonight, and you will be able to write history tonight , remember what I told you.
Li Cong's words were like a reassuring pill. After listening to it, everyone was relieved. What's wrong with so many people below? This is a city wall tens of meters high. They can't come up so easily. Even if they come up, if three of us can deal with him alone, can't we deal with them alone? Although there are many of them, they can fight us now There are only people who climb up from each gap. If it doesn’t matter if it’s three to one, I’m just trash. I will never be that trash. The three of them glanced at each other. At this moment, I am also afraid. Anyone who sees the situation ahead will be afraid. There are too many enemies in front of them. The dust they raised as they walked floated to a height of tens of meters, and they all trembled. But thinking that as long as the enemy rushes up, it is not as simple as trembling, and it may kill them. Thinking of this, they are full of energy, and they must fight the enemy to the death, and they will not be the one who died. .
Bang... bang... There was a bang and a bang, the soldiers of the Eastern Empire put their ladders on the city wall, and it was certain that someone started to climb, and the officers behind were ordering bombs again, those The grenade was thrown down again, and more than 30% of the ladders were directly interrupted. Some soldiers below were directly killed. No one supported the ladders and the ladders fell down directly, but some remained uninterrupted Well, even though a few people were killed after the grenade fell, there are too many troops in the Eastern Empire below. A dozen or so people are of no use to them at all. The rest of the soldiers immediately rushed over to support them. The other soldiers were immediately shouted to pick up the knives in their hands, and rushed to the top of the city wall. They also knew that only those who rushed to the back would have a chance of life, and they would definitely not survive, but they also You have to find a way out for your brother, right?
A group of more than a thousand people boarded the gap in the city wall, but just as their heads popped out, they suddenly saw a black shadow approaching. Damn it, it was a bow and arrow. There was only one thought in their minds, and then what? I don't even know, these people seemed to be moving in unison and fell directly, leaning back, the people below couldn't see what was above? People who are two or three meters away from the ladder may feel that something will be thrown from the sky, because it is very normal for others to throw stones during the siege, so they all put the spears in their hands to the top. Wake up, even if something falls, it can be used as a buffer, but what they didn't expect was that it was their own brother who fell, and their spears directly pierced this man into a sieve.
There was blood and some minced meat on these heads, these people were scared. Of course I was afraid, but with so many people on the battlefield, what is it even if a few people die? They all yelled loudly, as if they could frighten their fear away with such a loud voice, and looked at the big black pieces that kept falling from the sky, they knew that it was them Brothers, but there is no way, in fact, when these people came down, they were already dead, so they picked their brothers away with the spears in their hands. Often several people can adjust one person into several pieces without a single thought. There is no way to do this, otherwise, falling from a height of tens of meters can kill people, and they did not die under the soldiers on the city wall. At that time, he died on his own body. on his brother's body. This is always a bit unreasonable.
Li Cong looked at the killing battlefield in front of him with a smile. He was happy for the way of war he created, indeed. The enemy has already killed a lot of people based on his tactics. According to preliminary estimates on the battlefield, at least more than 20,000 people died within five minutes. The enemy has also changed their tactics now and started to tree more The ladders are almost a ladder connected to a ladder, there is no gap at all, they no longer come in through the gap, but come in from the place directly above the gap, which poses a new problem for Li Cong, Li Cong Since he had already prepared for this, he immediately ordered the soldiers to start changing formations, and it was still a battle group of three people, but the two people behind came up with bald heads and began to pay attention to the two sides of the knife-holding gate in front, no matter whether these people were Whether they come up from the gap or from the brick above the gap, they must be beaten down.
The city walls here are basically similar to some ancient city walls on the earth. The only difference is that the city walls here are taller and thicker. In the era of cold weapons, it is impossible to rush in. Such a city wall also gives Li Cong how much you have brought a great advantage. If it is the kind of city wall on the earth, it may have been breached many times. Now that they have changed, no one else can do anything. Just got a little better, and now It has become the original appearance, and it can only be constant thinking. His Majesty the Emperor and the generals of the Eastern Empire are really like ants on a hot pot. Now they are so anxious that they are scratching their heads. They are all sweaty. They can see clearly the things on the city wall. After all, they are all nine-level fighters. Now, they can see very clearly that their soldiers are constantly being thrown down like dumplings. the lives of their soldiers.
Impossible, how could it continue like this, the emperor of the Eastern Empire was walking back and forth in his tent, and the generals around him were also restless when he was walking, they thought that the pressure of the whole army would be enough to overwhelm the whole army. This city gave a review. They have already lost nearly 300,000 people at the barbed wire fence. They are still very fortunate to have reached the enemy's city wall at such a small price. Who knows, when they attacked the city wall, since they paid so much The big price has only passed half an hour now. According to reports from the front line, more than 100,000 people have lost their lives in this half hour. Most of them fell from the city wall after they died. It is not easy to find a complete corpse. Now those soldiers may not feel it. If there are measurement experts, they can feel that the ground under their feet has grown by about ten centimeters. Yes, these corpses are used to increase the height.
If it continues to grow at this level, the city wall will be shortened by half when the enemy pays about five million people. Li Cong is a space magician, and the slightest change below will not escape his feeling. , he can feel that this is usually getting smaller and smaller, although it is still very subtle, but as long as you take a closer look, you can know that if they don't care about human lives, there will eventually be corpses that will compare the city wall He got up before, as if he was acting the same as those barbarians on another planet. I didn't expect these civilized humans to do such things, but now Li Cong has no other way, he can only continue to let My own men do such things, do such massacres, otherwise, if others really climb the city wall, they will become corpses.
Even though His Majesty the Emperor has just gone to investigate, after two hours of fighting, although we have lost 1.3 million people, the actual height of the city wall has increased by nearly two meters. If we continue to attack like this, it is estimated that tomorrow morning At dawn, we can directly cavalry up their city walls. Such a war has never happened before. It’s just a medium-sized city, but they used more than 10 million people to fight me here for several days, and finally had to pay a price of nearly 20 million people to climb this city wall. This is simply too hateful Well, His Majesty the Emperor doesn't want to win such a victory, but is there any other way for him at this moment? The only way is to let the soldiers run to the city with their own flesh and blood, but he also has some capable people under his command. It seems that the general discovered that these corpses are reducing the height of the city wall from the ground. Not good news for good news.
Oh shit. I really don't want to continue fighting this kind of war. We need to use the bodies of our brave warriors to raise this landmark and shorten the distance between the city wall and the ground. If there are other options, I will definitely not do this, His Majesty the Emperor said depressingly. The following ministers dared not speak one by one. This is the emperor punishing himself. It's hard to talk about such things. The emperor is the son of heaven, and everything about the emperor is correct. If I talk to you at this time, how should I say it? Saying he is right, he already thinks he is wrong, saying that he is wrong is simply a treasonous thing, except for the emperor's elders and the emperor himself, who can say she is wrong Generally speaking, if the emperor admits his mistake, the ministers around him will definitely kneel down and say that it is not the emperor's fault at all, it is his own fault, but now there is no minister who stands up because he is afraid that the emperor will cut off his head because of this. The battlefield here is not the capital city, beheading is very uncommon in the capital city, but it is a very common thing here, and no one cares about it, it is quite normal for a few people to die on the battlefield.
I would like to report to His Majesty the Emperor, there is another way to be a minister. Since we want to climb high now, the height of the ground is shortened, the city wall is on the ground, and then we return directly. There is no need for us to waste our soldiers' bodies like this, rushing up At that time, they can pour this bag of soil directly on the ground, and then return directly. There is no need for us to waste the bodies of our soldiers. They are all flesh and blood, and they all have their own families. It's really sad to watch it for such a long time. As long as one person falls from the city wall, it means that a family in our empire is broken. Can such a thing be changed? One of the ministers stood up and said that there are many capable people in the Eastern Empire, just like the one in front of her. The method she thought of was a very good one. The eyes of the emperor of the Eastern Empire lit up. Indeed, what this kid said is indeed true. What can be thought about can also be practically implemented.
"The way you think is really good. This is really a good way. Pass this matter on, let the generals below order their soldiers, and each of them will bring five catties of soil. Sprinkle it on it, and then come back, don't continue this suicide siege, it won't do us any good, if the whole army knows, such news, they will think that this war is piled up by my life, This is absolutely impossible, pass the order on immediately, His Majesty seems to have grasped a life-saving straw, this guy usually has such a good way, the minister who proposed this idea is also complacent at the moment, the emperor is very in front of everyone I praised this guy Yifan, it seems that these guys don't usually live by bragging, they have some real things in their minds, he seems to be like this now, this method can at least save him from losing hundreds of dollars With a population of 10,000, this is also very good.
Informing Mr. Cao, the enemy's attack seemed to have stopped suddenly. While Li Cong was thinking, a general ran over and said, of course Li Cong knew what the enemy was doing, and the people of the Eastern Empire were working hard to raise the foundation below. None of them escaped your eyes, but now Li Cong can't think of a way to stop them, unless he opens the car door and rushes out, otherwise there is no other way. If the soldiers are killed, they will also increase the foundation. In any case, the distance from the ground is usually reduced little by little. At this time, Li Cong didn't know what to do. He was a little bored. Baibai said that he already knew the situation here, so he continued to think about it, what should he do? This is really a difficult thing to do.
Half an hour later, the height of the ground has increased by a full half a meter. If the height is increased at this speed, I can't increase the height of the city wall. The gap did not exist, and suddenly Li Tong thought of another way haha, you can increase the height of the ground, but I can't increase the height of the city wall, Li Cong thought that there is a lot of cement in his space ring, the ground It was a breeze to increase the height of the city wall, and immediately ordered all the artisans in the city to come to the city wall. Although the city wall was a war zone, the enemy had stopped firing bows and arrows at the city wall, and it was very quiet here. Although a large number of soldiers gathered tens of meters below them. But it's still very safe here, because others didn't want to cause any harm to the people on the city wall. What they want now is to shorten the distance between the surface of the city wall and this is what they want to do.
Each of the following generals is very worried. They already know the following things. They are also very scared. If there is no gully like the city wall, it would be very easy for others to rush up, as their minds have already imagined it. Tomorrow morning, the Wu Wei Army of the Eastern Empire will definitely charge directly from a distance. The speed of the horses is very fast, and with such a huge slope, it is very easy for them to charge up the city wall. It's close combat, it's hand-to-hand combat. This kind of war can kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. There is nothing else at all. It can be done in a cheap place. It will be reduced to ten to one. The enemy soldiers can afford casualties. Can they afford their losses? People have a steady stream of reinforcements, but do Li Cong and the others have reinforcements? That's impossible. They don't even have a single reinforcement now. The past few days have passed. Except for those who retreated from the city, they haven't seen a single person coming from the rear. Everything here is on their own.
They all thought that Li Cong would put forward some constructive suggestions. Who knew that this guy wanted all the craftsmen in the city to come over. What's the use of these factories? Although there are not enough soldiers on the city wall during the war, some young and magnificent labor force can be sent to the east of the city, but that time has not yet come. Although the war was fierce, it was only against the Eastern Empire government alone. On the one hand, the war on their side is not very fierce, and casualties are not normal for them at all. The soldiers are still the same soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is still good, but they cannot resist tomorrow's war, tomorrow When the cavalry rushed up, how did they fight the enemy? What should be considered now is this question instead of handing in these useless bows and arrows. What use will they be? Although they didn't understand in their hearts, they still followed Li Cong's request, wondering if a miracle could happen?
Of course Li Cong himself is a guy who can make miracles, and he will never let everyone down. When these craftsmen come up, Li Cong will teach them how to use cement to solidify bricks in half an hour. There are bricks under the city wall. These are all left by the Linghu family some time ago and they also wanted to strengthen the entire city wall. This is because the army of the Eastern Empire came too fast. Now the situation on the city wall has changed into another way. The soldiers turned into porters and they formed a long team one by one, slowly moving some bricks up from the bottom, and the craftsmen on the city wall, under the threat of the battlefield, quickly wanted to build the city wall. It’s a little strange. According to their previous products made of lime, it takes at least a long time to become so solidified. Who knows that the current product can become very strong in a short while, and in some Other aspects are also much better. What is this ****? It is the first time I have seen such a thing here after being a craftsman for so many years. Why didn’t I find it before? Something from Cao's House.
What exactly is that? These craftsmen are full of question marks one by one, and they don't know what it is? I only know that some strange adult made it out of the space ring. They have only heard of things like space rings in legends, and have never seen them at all. That adult waved his hand directly, and the city wall These things have appeared, and tens of thousands of craftsmen don't understand what they are? But the adult demonstrated it once, and they learned it quickly. This is what they usually do. As long as they watch others do a little, they can learn it by themselves. Those speeds are naturally not for sale, but the journey naturally can't make them so, when they are happy, they go to work and there are soldiers going down non-stop. Grenades are better than Lotus Road.
If a serial crossbow was used, the soldiers below would have died there directly. His body was a whole. The soldiers of the Eastern Empire would immediately give this body to the past, and directly shorten the distance between the city wall and the ground. Quite a lot. If this grenade is used, a person may be broken into several pieces. In this case, if it is broken, it will not be easy to combine. If you want to increase the height, you can do it at a distance that will not increase. There were explosions below, and the soldiers of the Eastern Empire were blown up enough. They wanted to retreat, but there was no way behind them. The order from the Qing army of the emperor made it sound better. Come down, they don’t have you in their minds, they just listen to His Majesty’s order. To put it bluntly, they are the supervising team. To put it bluntly, these people are the king of Hades. They dare not go to the battlefield but force them from behind Going to the battlefield, what is this called?
On any battlefield, an army in the form of a supervising team will appear. What I said just now is very good, but if it really comes to the battlefield, it will be another matter. If you don’t charge now, I will call How did people come to help you charge? Of course, you may not understand the way to help you. There are too many people who died tonight. It is already midnight. Millions of people died again. The distance is too small, of course it is the original city wall, but no one said it is the current city wall, if it is the current city wall, then I am really sorry for you, there is still a distance at all, do you want to come up? I think you have to continue to work hard for a while, and it is impossible to call you up. You should continue to rely on the dead to do this matter. (To be continued..)
