Chapter 681 - Magic Archery
Kesi might still be thinking about the fight with Chi Zhongtian just now, so he was in a bad mood at the moment. After hearing Sissoari's words, he said in a bad tone: "General, don't worry, just those people, I
If I stand here and let them shoot with arrows, they won’t be able to hit me!”
In his words, he seemed not to pay attention to the defenders on the tower at all.
It's no wonder, after all, the defenders of Lijiang City some time ago mainly used to drive away and intimidate, and all the fallen arrows were picked up by the enemy. For this reason, Ke Si once said with disdain in front of Sisso Ari
Said something like this.
"In the past, when the late king told me about borrowing arrows from straw boats, I really regarded Kong Ming as a god at that time, but now I realize that he is nothing. Look at me, there is no need to set up those formations.
Send a few people around for a while, and you'll get a lot of arrows right away, hahaha!"
At this time, Sissoari suddenly called Lemazagon and asked: "Should the city have already taken action?"
Lemazagon nodded and said: "Don't worry, leader, I just saw some black smoke rushing into the air. They must have started setting fire."
"Then, will the city's defenders send people to put out the fire?"
"Absolutely. If the dog emperor's dog son wasn't here, maybe it wouldn't be possible, but as long as he is here, those officers and soldiers will definitely be sent by him to put out the fire."
Lemazagon seemed to be very confident, and everything he said was conclusive.
"Well, when we start to attack the city later, we must work hard to suppress them until they can't lift their heads. Don't be afraid of death. In addition, let a few of them lead the Dark Feather Guards to shoot arrows. Remember, there is nothing else.
Just one thing, suppress the defenders on the tower so that they dare not even raise their heads!"
As soon as Sissoari finished speaking, Ke Si nodded solemnly, and then said: "General, please wait here for our victory news!"
"General Kesi, all the ancestors of our Southern Palm are blessing us in heaven. This battle can only succeed, not fail!"
"General, don't worry, everyone obeys the order and attack the city with all our strength!"
With a loud shout from Kesi, the battle finally began.
At this time, the siege vehicle had stopped, only about a few dozen steps away from the city gate.
Lu Gui, who was standing on the city tower, had already received the report. The southern Xinjiang quelling rebellion army had gathered more than 6,000 people in the city at this moment, all of whom were on standby near the city gate, ready to attack at any time.
But at this time, Lu Gui looked at the siege vehicles outside and began to murmur in his heart.
Obviously, this kind of siege vehicle is different from ordinary ones.
Generally speaking, ordinary siege vehicles are not very high. The upper part is spire-shaped and very strong, while the lower part has four to six wheels. The outside is usually covered with a layer of sheepskin for protection.
The function is that there is a thick log suspended by an iron chain inside the cart. There are metal iron heads on both ends of the log. Once close to the city gate, the gate can often be broken open in a dozen times.
But the siege vehicle in front of me was not only taller than ordinary ones, but also had eight wheels installed underneath, and it was not covered with sheepskin at all, but with gleaming iron sheets.
As a result, the defensive power of this siege vehicle was greatly increased. Lu Gui thought that he might have to disobey a military order and go out of the city to fight.
"Archers, prepare!" Following Lu Gui's loud shout, hundreds of enemy troops outside the city suddenly rushed out from the crowd. Their clothes were of all kinds, but most of them did not look like people from the Central Plains.
The weapons in the hands of these people are very simple, mostly sticks, and they run without any rules.
Lu Gui looked at the rabble in front of her, but her heart was not at all relaxed.
"Fire the arrow!"
Anyway, let’s cum for a while before talking.
Soon, the archers on the tower took aim at the people in front of them, pulled the string of their bows fiercely, and shot out the arrows.
This time, the archers arranged by Lu Gui here were all very accurate. I dare not say that they could pierce the Yang with a hundred steps, but at least they were extremely accurate.
Therefore, when one round of arrow feathers fell, dozens of people fell to the ground.
Just before these archers had time to rejoice, suddenly, dozens of men in black clothes rushed out from the enemy army.
He took off his bow and arrow and pointed it at the tower.
Lu Gui visually measured the distance and couldn't help laughing.
At this distance, it is normal to shoot arrows down from the tower.
But if you go from bottom to top, it's completely different.
As we all know, the effort required to drop a rock from above is not the same as the effort required to throw a rock upward from below.
Lu Gui didn't believe it. At such a long distance, it was impossible to shoot from the top of the tower, let alone from the bottom up.
However, just a moment later, Lu Gui became dejected.
The arrows in the hands of the dozens of men in black seemed to be shot out by artillery. They were shot straight towards the people on the tower. Not only were they fast, but they were also incredibly powerful. It was just a few blinks of an eye.
In no time, the arrow branch was already imminent.
"careful!"
Lu Gui had been on the battlefield for a long time and reacted quickly. He quickly grabbed the two people nearby, then took a few steps back and squatted down.
However, others are not so lucky.
Those archers were still immersed in the pleasure of just shooting down many people below, and they were also convinced that at that distance, the enemy's arrows could not reach them, so they had no defense at all.
By the time they reacted, it was already time for the arrow to be stuck in their foreheads.
There were a total of thirty-three people standing in front of the city gate.
In addition to Lu Gui, there were thirty-two archers.
At this time, except for Lu Gui and the two people he pulled away, the other thirty people all had arrows stuck in their foreheads. If you look carefully, you will find that they are all in the middle of their foreheads.
Moreover, there are no extra arrows, only three arrows are currently inserted into the pillars on the tower.
"Boom" all hit the ground, and all thirty archers opened their eyes wide and fell down.
At this time, Lu Gui was protecting the two archers with his arms and did not raise his head. He only raised his head quickly when he heard something was wrong.
It didn't matter, it almost made him vomit blood.
"General, be careful!"
Some of the archers in the back row standing behind had sharp eyes and saw arrows flying from the distance again, so they quickly shouted.
Chapter completed!
