Pirate Song

Chapter 22 But that's all

"Cring the crossbows, prepare the archers!" Gao Huaiyuan stared at the queue of Jin soldiers and ordered again.

"Raise your arms and shoot upward!" Gao Huaiyuan immediately ordered when he saw that the Jin soldiers had entered the range of the bow and arrow.

So the archers who had been prepared raised their arms and pointed in the air, and at the same time they opened their bows and loosened their bowstrings. Then a cloud of arrows immediately floated out from the wall of the village, and the sound of whooshing filled the ears, and quickly floated towards the golden

Soldier's head.

With a splashing sound, the number of golden soldiers hit by arrows increased significantly this time, and another group of golden soldiers fell to the ground, becoming the second batch of victims of this battle.

"Charge..." A captain among the Jin army suddenly shouted loudly.

After hearing the sound, these golden soldiers immediately started running. They wanted to reach the wall of the village as quickly as possible, so as to reduce some losses.

Looking at the golden soldiers who started running, Gao Huaiyuan shouted sharply: "Keep firing arrows! The crossbowman comes forward, aim and shoot again!"

As the golden soldiers began to run, their formation also began to become a little chaotic. The protective effect of the shield bearers was reduced a lot again. Many of them exposed their figures, so they also gave the country warriors on the wall a chance.

With this great opportunity, everyone immediately started cumming wantonly.

Arrows fell like rain on the crowd of golden soldiers, and many golden soldiers were hit by arrows. Fortunately, they were protected by armor, otherwise, they would all have fallen down. But even so,

Amidst such fierce baptism of arrows on the wall, many golden soldiers were still shot through their armors and fell to the ground with miserable screams. Some golden soldiers were injured and struggled for fear of being trampled to death by those behind them.

Keep moving forward. At this time, the people in the front and middle have no choice but to rush forward blindly.

At this time, the archers among the Jin soldiers also arrived within the range of the counterattack. They stood still, raised their bows, and began to shoot at the Song people on the wall.

As they counterattacked, some of the village warriors on the wall began to scream and roll to the ground while holding their wounds, thus announcing the appearance of the first casualties in this battle.

While commanding the battle, Gao Huaiyuan also joined in the firing of arrows. The strong bow in his hand was like a sniper, and he specifically targeted officers such as centurions and ten-capurions in the Jin army. Moreover, he

After a long period of tempering, his archery skills have almost reached the point where there are no exceptions. What's more, his quiver is filled with the most well-made arrows specially selected, and the arrow clusters are all three-dimensional.

Almost every arrow that fell from the prismatic armor-piercing arrows would take away the life of a Jin soldier officer. Even if they could not be shot to death, they would be seriously injured and fall to the ground.

Gradually, as the casualties of the Jin soldiers increased, the Jin soldiers began to become confused. Before their attack team could rush to the gate of the town carrying logs, a sound of gold could be heard among the Jin soldiers.

After hearing Jin Ming, the Jin soldiers immediately turned around and retreated back like a tide. Some of the Jin soldiers even picked up their injured comrades on the ground and retreated together.

"Stop shooting arrows! Stop shooting arrows!" Gao Huaiyuan put away his rigid bow and was a little too nervous. Seeing that the golden soldiers had run out of the shooting range, the soldiers who were still shooting arrows wildly shouted, "What on earth are these guys doing?"

He is a new recruit and has no experience!

"The golden soldiers have retreated!..." One of the recruits suddenly cheered, and then the nervous recruits also cheered wildly.

The young officers and veterans looked with disdain on their faces and shouted: "What is this! It's not a big deal! Everyone, calm down, the ones to be beaten are still behind! Hurry, carry these injured brothers down."

Get treatment and be prepared."

Veterans are veterans after all. Compared with recruits, they are much calmer. They know what to do next without Gao Huaiyuan's instructions. They command their men and carry the injured men down to the people in the town for care and treatment.

, and then continue to prepare to defend against the enemy's attack.

This first tentative attack ended in the failure of the Jin Army. The leader of the Jin Army pointed at Qifang Town and said angrily: "These damn country soldiers actually dare to fight! Come on, keep preparing for the second one."

This attack! I don’t believe we can’t take down Qifang Town!”

So the Jin soldiers gathered up the retreating troops and horses, retreated to the rear formation and started to form the team again, replaced by another team, and lined up in front of the formation again.

Gao Huaiyuan temporarily handed over the defense here to Huang Yan, turned around and walked down the wall, came to the gate, and said to Zhou Xianwei who was busy here and didn't know what to do: "Zhouxian Lieutenant, you

Bring someone with you and get something to block the gate for me. This gate won’t be able to withstand the Jin soldiers for a few times!”

"It's blocked? If it's blocked, wouldn't we also..." Fatty Zhou was a little worried that if it was blocked, he wouldn't be able to escape from the town, so he said to Gao Huaiyuan hesitantly.

"Are you still thinking about escaping now? Soldiers like us will be in chaos immediately after we go out, and we will only die! Stop talking nonsense and block the door for me immediately. The stronger the better!" Gao Huaiyuan was too lazy to follow.

This pig-like thing is talking nonsense, he shouted at him sharply.

Then he turned around and greeted Jia Qi, who was walking over: "You can supervise this place personally, and then send people to the west gate to block it for me, and tell Zhou Hao that if the Jin soldiers attack from him, let him support me.

!”

"Yes! I obey, little one!" Jiaqi immediately bowed and replied, then held the handle of the knife at his waist, looked at Fatty Zhou and said with a smile on his face: "Master Zhou, hurry up!"

Fatty Zhou stamped his feet, and then helplessly called to the people: "Come over here, and demolish these two houses immediately. The bricks and stones are blocked in the door openings, and I will kill the door! Move quickly, or I will be beaten."

Isn’t the whip enough?” This girl is a bit pretentious.

Gao Huaiyuan caught another cook in the supply camp and told him: "You arrange for people to cook quickly and deliver the food directly to the wall of the village for the brothers to eat. In addition, give me all the oil you can find here."

Collect them and use them uniformly, as well as all the lead and tin in the town, find a few pots to boil them, and then pour them on the heads of the golden soldiers! Hurry and do it!"

The head cook immediately agreed and hurried to make arrangements. At this time, Gao Huaiyuan was still uneasy. After thinking for a while, he asked the carpenters who used to serve as coachmen in the camp to gather together and told them: "You guys

According to the old method, get me a few simple throwing carts. This thing is very powerful. By the way, take a look at the bed crossbows that were brought with the cart this time. Unload them from the cart and get them to the village.

Go up on the wall, I want to see how powerful this thing is!"

The group of coachmen immediately agreed and rushed out. Gao Huaiyuan touched his chin and sneered secretly. The goods delivered this time were really complete. They even had bed crossbows. It seems that if they fight well, they will be enough.

Jin Bing has had a drink! It’s just that the wall of this village is a bit short, which is worrying!

At this time, Gao Huaiyuan heard Huang Yan shouting loudly from the city gate: "Get ready, crossbowman, let me fire!"

Listening to the sound of the crossbow machine on the city, and another tense sound coming down the wall, Gao Huaiyuan still felt uneasy. Knowing that the Jin soldiers had started attacking again, he turned around and climbed up the stairs to the wall.

"I take over your command. You immediately draw out a hundred strong and courageous men from our camp. They all put on armor and gather them in the town. I want you to organize a reserve team and bring people to prepare for me at any time.

Support the wall. Once the Jin soldiers attack any section of the wall, you will lead your troops to knock them down! But remember, don't beat the veterans and our people! Go quickly!" Gao Huaiyuan swung his sword and knocked one away.

The arrow that was shot at him was given to Huang Yan, who was directing the battle.

Huang Yan agreed, and immediately turned around and ran around the wall. On the wall, he kept pointing at some braver and stronger people and shouted: "You...you...you, follow me! Don't worry about it here."

Come on! Hurry up!"

Gao Huaiyuan saw that Huang Yan had prepared the reserve team according to his instructions, so he felt a little relieved and turned his attention outside the town.

The number of Jin soldiers sent this time was obviously larger than the first time, and their formation was much thicker this time, and the coordination between the arms was tighter. It was no longer a test like the first attack.

Sexually assaulted.

As they approached, the archers of the two armies began to exchange fire, with arrows flying back and forth in the air. From time to time, some country warriors would be knocked down by arrows, causing the country warriors on his side to start to panic again.

The infantry of the Jin Army were maintaining a dense formation and continued to advance. The shields in their hands blocked many flying arrows. The pressure on their side increased: "Don't panic, everyone, we are at a high place, and the Jin soldiers can't do anything to us."

What, get up and shoot at them! Anyone who dares to lie down in fear of fighting, I will kill you now!"

Gao Huaiyuan kicked to the ground an archer who was lying under the crenel and did not dare to show his head, and shouted to the nearby village warriors.

This guy was obviously frightened. After being kicked over by Gao Huaiyuan, he held his bow and rolled on the ground screaming, refusing to get up. His screams had obviously affected other people's battles. When Gao Huaiyuan saw it,

He still refused to get up and shoot arrows, and became furious in his heart. Once there are more people like this, fear will spread, and soon other timid people will be attracted to be like him, which will eventually lead to collective collapse, and even

It might cause a roaring camp.

Although Gao Huaiyuan has never experienced this kind of situation, he has heard about it from Fan Dutou and others. He also knows that this kind of person is naturally timid and may be an honest and good-natured person. But here, he became

A scourge, if he cannot be stopped, this person is likely to cause big troubles!

So he gritted his teeth and secretly said, "I'm sorry to my brother." Then he suddenly pulled out his sword, closed his eyes, and swung the sword away. The archer's ghostly screams suddenly stopped, and his head was chopped off by Gao Huaiyuan, leaving him headless.

The corpse shook a few times and then fell silent.

"Listen to me. The military orders are like mountains. If anyone dares to fight again, this person will be your fate. Shoot an arrow for me!" Gao Huaiyuan grabbed the man's bloody head and shouted sternly at the village heroes.

roared.

When he slashed with the sword, his mood was definitely different from that of slashing at the enemy. To be honest, he couldn't bear it. This man died a bit unjustly. After all, he was just a common man who had just put down his hoe, so he suddenly devoted himself to this

In the battlefield of sowing blood on fire, fear is inevitable, but Gao Huaiyuan had to do this. If he didn't do this, he would drag many people to die with him, so he had to die.

Gao Huaiyuan grabbed a spear with determination, stuck the man's head on the tip of the spear, then thrust the spear into the crack in the wall of the village, and lifted the man's head high on the

in mid-air.

In this way, those timid people were really shocked, and they realized that what Gao Huaiyuan said was really not a joke, he really knew how to kill people! No wonder the veterans have been instilling a thought in them these days,

The more you fear death on the battlefield, the faster you will die. It turns out that those who are afraid of death will be killed by their own people! So these people suddenly stood up, screamed, grabbed their bows and arrows, and pointed at the Jin army below.

Came hard.

As a general, Gao Huaiyuan naturally could not stand on the battlements and shoot at the Jin army like soldiers, so he walked back and forth on the city wall, constantly cheering for these country warriors and boosting their morale: "Concentrate first

Use your strength to shoot those Jin Army archers to death! Then shoot other Jin soldiers!" Seeing that the Jin Army archers were more accurate than their own archers, causing considerable losses to the village warriors on the wall,

So he immediately ordered the village warriors to concentrate their firepower to suppress the opponent's archers first.

Under his mobilization, the village warriors on the wall immediately turned their attention to the archers behind the Jin army. In a moment, they all had bows and crossbows. Although they were not good at shooting, they instantly surpassed them in number.

He actually suppressed the counterattack of the Jin Army archers and shot many Jin Army archers down on the spot in the open space outside the town.

At this time, the Jin soldiers were already close to the stronghold wall. Some Jin soldiers carried a long simple ladder and tried to build it towards the low stronghold wall.

"Put down the crossbow, pick up the spear, use the spear!" Gao Huaiyuan shouted loudly, grabbed a spear piled on the crenel, raised his hand and threw it towards the wall of the village. A golden soldier just raised his upper body,

Immediately, his spear pierced his chest, causing him to fall down and be nailed to the ground. The ladder he lifted also fell down, knocking over several people who were caught off guard.

Jin Bing.

When the village warriors saw that the shuttle gun was more powerful than the bow and arrow, they put down their bows and arrows one after another, grabbed the shuttle gun, and threw it downwards. This shuttle gun was originally used by the shield soldiers. It was about two and a half meters long, with a front end

The sharp iron spear head is shorter than the spear, and it does not have the red tassel of the spear. It can be used for combat and assassination, and can also be used as a javelin throwing. Needless to say, the power is natural. The quality of a spear gun is far more than

There are too many bows and arrows, and under inertia, the natural killing power is much stronger than that of bows and arrows.

The armor of the Jin soldiers may be able to withstand the penetration of bows and arrows, but in front of the spear, it is like paper. As long as it is hit, it will be pierced. It can be said that the winner has no reason to survive, and he can be killed in one strike

The life of a gold soldier, even the skinned wooden shield in the hands of the gold soldier, cannot withstand the piercing of the spear. After the spear penetrates the wooden shield, it can nail or nail the shield hand to death.

Under the attack of a barrage of spears, the formation of the Jin soldiers was completely disrupted before they could reach the bottom of the wall. At the same time, they suffered heavy casualties and finally lost their impact. The remaining Jin soldiers began to attack in panic.

Back away.

In fact, the Jin soldiers are not very elite now. Although they are regular troops of the Jin army, their training level is not necessarily much better. After suffering heavy casualties, these Jin soldiers began to panic and turned around and fled.

Go down.

After watching the Jin soldiers retreat again, Qifang Town once again cheered. The people in the town felt at ease and were no longer afraid of the Jin soldiers like tigers! As a result of the two attacks, the Jin soldiers paid

There were more than 300 people killed in the battle, not including the wounded, and even with the wounded in the city, the total battle losses were only more than 100 people. This made the Jin Army general angry.

"Come here! Prepare the siege equipment. I don't believe that the small Qifang Town can actually stop us!" the Jin army general shouted angrily.

So the Jin army suspended their attack and began to summon the craftsmen who were accompanying the army to build some siege equipment on the spot. This time they were ordered to chase the Song army's baggage team, which was not released at all.

In the eyes of the Jin Army, the presence of so many people was definitely something they could easily capture. The reason why they sent four thousand soldiers and horses was because they thought they might encounter Meng Zongzheng, who had recently been active in this area.

The Song army wanted to be prepared and transport such a large amount of supplies back to the Jin army camp outside Zaoyang City, so when they sent out troops, they did not make any preparations for attacking the enemy.

But unexpectedly, after arriving here, they actually bit an iron lump and almost broke their big teeth. Then they thought that they needed some siege equipment to support their attack.

In this way, it felt a bit like improvising, and it also provided valuable preparation time for the Song people in Qifang Town.

At this time, Qifang Town finally settled down, and many people showed a relaxed expression. The initial panic began to gradually subside at this time.

"I said brothers, don't be afraid! Look at what the Jin soldiers are capable of. If we follow the high commander, we will never lose the battle. As long as everyone listens to the high commander's orders, that's right!" Some veterans began to give instructions to their subordinates.

The new recruits are instilled with the creed of obeying the high command.

"How awesome am I to be a golden soldier! But that's all!" Even Fatty Zhou began to relax now, and began to talk shamelessly to those who worked with him.dd
