Chapter 1633 Attack the City and Escape
Oh, they are wearing heavy armor, and the arrows of the untouchables of Dachu are not strong enough to hurt them.
However, they were happy too soon.
Not long after, a terrifying cry broke out from the soldiers: "Ah, rot worms, rot worms! The untouchables of Dachu tied rot worms to arrows!"
"Ah, hurry up, get the rot worms off me!"
"It's in, the rotworm's in!"
For a time, the soldiers were in chaos, and the offensive formation stopped. Many soldiers were rolling on the ground, slapping their bodies, or tilting their heads and patting their ears, trying to swat the rot worms out of their ears.
Upon seeing this, Jindu immediately informed Lemuqin about the attack by Dachu soldiers with insect arrows.
"Shameless!" Lemuqin was furious when he heard this and hated the people of Chu.
And the reason why he was so angry was because the Da Chu soldiers and civilians had always been lambs in the eyes of the Da Rong people, a group of lambs that were allowed to be slaughtered by them.
Now that the Lambs have rebelled, how dare they fight back? Actually have the ability to fight back? !
"Send the order and let the warriors continue to attack. Anyone who dares to stop will be killed on the spot!" Lemuqin began to be dissatisfied with the soldiers under his command. He felt that they were a bunch of trash and nothing more than rotten insects. What were they afraid of?
However, Lemuqin had just burned to death a large number of soldiers infected with rot worms tonight. The soldiers in the entire camp knew how terrible the rot worms were, and also knew that there was no cure for the rot worms. How could they not be afraid?
The bugs got into the body, burst the belly and died... No one wants to die so miserably!
"Yes!" Jin Yingyong responded and immediately passed on the order: "All warriors continue to attack and break through Xing'an Mansion within an hour! Anyone who dares to stop will be killed on the spot!"
Although Jin Du felt sorry for the soldiers who were infected with rotten insects, he was also a soldier. At the critical moment, he would not be soft-hearted towards the soldiers who disturbed the morale of the army.
After the order was given, there were still soldiers rolling on the ground, trying to shake off the rot worms on their bodies. With a fierce look in his eyes, he directly sent out his horse to kill those soldiers.
The sound of horse hoofbeats was heard, and the cavalry stepped directly over these soldiers. Those who were not trampled to death were also hacked to death with long knives.
"ah--!"
For a time, screams broke out everywhere, and hundreds of soldiers were killed by their own people.
However, after killing a group of soldiers, the other soldiers who were infected with rot worms calmed down, held up their iron shields and long knives, and rushed towards Xing'an Mansion while shouting.
"General, the soldiers are not afraid of the rotworms. They have reached the moat!" The soldiers on the observation deck loudly reported towards the city tower.
General Liang's expression changed when he heard this, and he became frightened.
However, poison was sprinkled in the moat, and there was a mechanism under the moat. The soldiers had no bridge. If they thought about the moat, a number of soldiers would definitely die!
It's a pity that this is not the south. The water in the moat can't drown anyone at all, and the soldiers are not stupid. They know that there is a mechanism in the moat of Dachu, and they use a ladder to make a bridge. The soldiers directly use the ladder to cross the moat.
But the baggage could not go up the ladder, but the soldiers were not afraid of death. The soldiers who were infected with rotworms pushed the baggage down into the river, regardless of the poison and the strangulation of the organs. After a group of people died, they finally sent the siege baggage to the tower. Down.
"Fire arrows to kill the soldiers pushing the siege cone!" General Liang's face turned pale and he almost fell to the ground.
It's over, it's over, if the soldiers pushing the siege cone come to the city gate, the soldiers will break the city gate in less than half an hour!
Whoosh whoosh!
The soldiers immediately drew their bows and arrows and shot at the soldiers pushing the siege cone.
But the heavy armor worn by these soldiers was thicker than that of ordinary soldiers, and Chu's arrows could not penetrate the heavy armor at all.
"Spread the poison!" Dr. Lu was so anxious that he opened the medicine box and threw the poison bag directly in.
Then he distributed the poison packs to the archers: "Don't stretch it. Why can't poison be used in a battle between two armies? Are there not many of our Chu soldiers who will be poisoned by the soldiers? Spread the poison quickly. Now we can only stop it with poison." them!"
Otherwise, everyone in the city will suffer.
"Get out of the way, you don't need us to use it!" The third steward of the Lei family pushed the stunned soldiers, grabbed the poison bag, tied it to an arrow, and shot towards the soldiers pushing the siege awl under the city.
The brothers from the Lei family's caravan and the people from the Feng family's escort agency followed suit and grabbed the poison package, tied it to an arrow, and shot the poison arrow.
Whoosh whoosh!
Bang bang bang!
The poison pack burst open and the poison flew away, poisoning a group of soldiers to death.
"Shameless untouchables!" Jin Du was furious, pointing at a group of soldiers and said: "Enter the second group of siege soldiers!"
After hearing this, the second group of siege soldiers rushed over and continued to push the siege cone.
The third steward of the Lei family frowned: "The Rong people are going to fill up the army and attack the city!"
I'm afraid it will be over this time.
The third steward saw that the soldiers were determined to break through Xing'an Mansion no matter how many soldiers died, and immediately ordered the brothers around him: "Hurry back and inform the old lady and the chief steward so that they can prepare to escape."
"Yes." After hearing this, Chen Liang immediately turned around and left.
But not long after he left, he heard two whooshing and banging sounds, and a crossbow arrow was shot from outside the city, piercing the body of the third steward, and directly nailed the third steward to the wall of the tower.
"Third steward!" Chen Liang was shocked and wanted to go back to save the third steward.
The third steward said: "No matter how much you yell, I still won't die. Go back and report the news!"
As soon as he finished yelling, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Quick, surround the third steward!" Dr. Lu hurriedly shouted to the brothers of the Lei family caravan. The big guys immediately surrounded the third steward with iron shields, blocking the rain of arrows in time and saving the third steward's life.
Chen Liang was also almost hit by a rain of arrows. After dodging the rain of arrows, he hurried down the tower and rode on horseback to inform Lei Mao and Gao Lei.
…
In the other courtyard, Gu Jinli had people bring Han, mother and son, as well as Mrs. Guo, Kuang, Lu and others to the main courtyard.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Brother Roubao, you're afraid!" Maybe the child is more sensitive, so Niu Qijin hugged Bao Fukang and cried.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Everyone is here. It's okay." Bao Fukang, a taciturn kid who had been with Niu Wujin for a long time, had become talkative. He was coaxing Qijin.
"Qijin, if you don't cry, I'll give you some candy." Gu Jinli took out a piece of candy and fed it to Niu Qijin's mouth. But the child was frightened by her and refused to eat: "Bitter, unpalatable!"
"This time it's real candy. It's very sweet. Eat it quickly." Gu Jinli said and stuffed the candy directly into Qijin's mouth.
Um!
Qijin's eyes lit up and she stopped crying immediately because the candy this time was sweet.
"Sanlang's wife, the Rong attacked the city in the middle of the night a few days ago. Why did they start the attack so early tonight? It's very wrong to hear this." Kuang Shi asked Gu Jinli worriedly while supporting Lin Erzuo's wife.
Gu Jinli said: "Don't be afraid, everyone. You all have the poison and weapons I gave you. I have told you what to do. I will try my best to escort you out of the city."
After saying this, Ji Zhenniang almost cried in fear.
But she didn't dare to cry. Gu Xiaoyu had warned her that if she dared to cry while running for her life, she would abandon her.
"Sanlang's wife, are you all ready?" Gao Lei had already met Chen Liang and hurried back to the main courtyard after learning that the Rong people were going to fight to the death to break the city tonight.
Gu Jinli nodded: "Everything is ready, just waiting for the news."
As soon as the news came that the city could not be defended, they would flee.
