I’m The King Chapter 660: : Blizzard and Snowstorm (12)


Chen Bin never hoped that the snow in the sky would be heavier and more violent. The opponent's continuous attack had already seriously damaged the city walls of Dubozhai. We can take advantage of the wartime gap to quickly repair the city wall, slap the snow on it, and pour water on it. In a blink of an eye, it will be frozen solid, but up to now, the snow in the city and the new snow that falls every day have completely disappeared. Can't keep up with the extent of the loss. The city wall covered with ice and snow is getting shorter every day. The snow platform outside the city is now higher than the city wall, and the crossbow installed on it is now condescending to shoot at the city. There are many crossbows, faster rate of fire, and higher accuracy, and they have long been overwhelmed by the opponent.

Compared with those snow platforms, Chen Bin is more worried about the siege ramp that is getting closer and closer to the city wall. The ramp with a width of about three meters starts to build from outside the shooting range of the crossbow, and the closer it is to the city wall Even though the Donghu people have paid heavy losses in order to accumulate these three siege ramps, this ramp is still firmly approaching the city wall every day.

The arrival of 3,000 infantry speeded up his progress even more. Compared with cavalry, infantry can use various weapons to resist attacks on the city and speed up the construction of ramps.

I don’t know if that **** came up with the idea, using moso bamboo to make large slingshots one by one, two thick and thin moso bamboos were tied with ropes, and a piece of animal skin was tied at the end, and several Donghu men pulled the ropes, Pull the moso bamboo back, and the stone wrapped in the animal skin will fly up, the power cannot be underestimated. The ice and snow wall of Dubo village was basically destroyed by these moso bamboos.

"Xiao Mo, how much did you prepare for those things?" He turned his head to look at a guy with a head wrapped like a rice dumpling beside him.

"I have prepared two hundred."

"A ramp can be divided into sixty branches, which should be enough." Chen Bin murmured, "As long as they can kill the opponent a lot in the first time, they will have some scruples."

East Hu Daying, He Tianju looked at Mo Yanduo quietly, "Tomorrow, we can send a cavalry team to charge. The three ramps will be charged at the same time. As long as one of them opens a gap, the village will be considered broken."

Mo Yandu was a little restless, "General He, these days, we have built ramps with great fanfare. Chen Bin will not be ignorant of what we want to do. Guess how he will respond?"

"I don't know!" He Tianju shook his head.

"Don't know?" Gu Jili on one side looked at the other side dumbfounded, "How can you not know?"

"There are many ways to deal with it. I don't know which one he will adopt. I can only watch it."

"But after reading this, it will cost the lives of many Donghu Jianer." Mo Yan said angrily.

He Tianju let out a laugh, "General Mo Yandu, once you become a general, you are the leader of the army, so you don't know this truth. Victory in wars is always accumulated with your life. You want to win without paying sacrifices, how is that possible? This is a tough battle. In all wars, the heart is the first, and the siege is the lowest. Let me tell you, in the history of our Dayan, there was a rebellion once. , our Dayan standing army attacked a city guarded by 5,000 rebels. It lasted for three full months and cost 20,000 lives before finally entering the city. The casualties four times that of the defenders were all in the village. There are more than a thousand defenders, and in this season, hey, even if five thousand people die, I am not surprised."

Hearing such a huge casualty, Mo Yandu and Gu Jili turned black, "Is there no better way?"

"No!" He Tianju shook his head and said, "If time permits, we can grind slowly, but General Yan Qi was destroyed in such a hurry that he gave you a limited time, so what else can we do? A passage leading to the top of the city. Unless you don't care about General Yan Qi's military order."

Mo Yandu was silent for a while, "Tomorrow, send cavalry to charge the city."

During this day, many soldiers in Dubo Village didn't sleep. They worked hard all night before they could finish the project. The ramp is only a few feet away from the top of the city. This distance, not to mention horses, is considered human. With a leap, you can also jump from the ramp to the city. Chen Bin is not worried about people, but worried about the cavalry. Once the opponent's cavalry rushed to the city on horseback, they would be able to occupy an area at the top of the city, and then Dubozhai would not be able to hold it.

The sky is getting brighter, and in the Donghu camp, the drums are beating steeply. With the sound of the rumbling war drums, on the top of the city, the soldiers of the Zhengdong Army lying on the ground like corpses jumped out. After that, in an instant, one by one, they all went from listless to radiant. The bow strings of a crossbow were quickly replaced, and a brand new arm crossbow was taken out from the cave of the soldiers. In this season, the probability of damage to the bow string was astonishingly high. If one was not careful, a crossbow would be scrapped.

Donghu infantry raised their big shields and pushed forward slowly. On the snow platform in the distance, pieces of felt cloth were torn off, revealing the crossbows underneath. Just like in the city, the crossbowmen also began to replace the crossbows. The bowstring of the crossbow.

Chen Bin stood behind the wall, but his eyes were fixed on a somewhat blurred figure under the waving banner of the pawns on the opposite side. No matter how he looked at it, he seemed familiar.

The sky gradually became brighter again, and Chen Bin leaned almost half of his body out of the battlements. This time, he finally saw the man's face clearly. There was a rattling sound, He Tianju, it turned out to be He Tianju, the lieutenant general of General Kumamoto.

It’s no wonder that the Donghu people are attacking the city in the same way now. It turns out that this person is giving advice to the Donghu people. Chen Bin roared in his heart, and dodged to the side of a crossbow, "Help me!" he growled in a low voice.

Behind the wall, the crossbow slowly turned, and an experienced crossbowman adjusted the angle and distance, aiming at He Tianju in the distance.

"Regimental Commander Chen, the distance is too far. Even if you shoot there, it won't do any damage." The crossbowman said with some embarrassment.

"I know." Chen Bin gritted his teeth and said, "This is my declaration to kill him. This is my attitude, and I want him to know."

"Who is he?" The crossbowman asked curiously.

Chen Bin sighed, "You are just a small soldier. I used to be a lieutenant general anyway. The man opposite is called He Tianju. You haven't seen him before. But I often see him in the big tent of General Kumamoto. He, he is the lieutenant general of General Kumamoto."

The crossbowman opened his mouth wide, "Then, that is a high official, why did he surrender to the Donghu people?"

"In this world, there are always people with weak bones!" Chen Bin stroked the cold shaft of the arrow.

The crossbow soldier swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "Commander Chen, He Tianju has surrendered, General Kumamoto will not..."

"Fart, who is General Kumamoto, how could he surrender to the Donghu people." Chen Bin pouted, "Don't talk nonsense, aim at Luo, even if you can't shoot him, it's good to scare him to urinate in his pants. In this weather, as soon as the urine comes out, it will freeze, and it would be best to freeze his penis."

The crossbowman smiled, "Commander Chen, you are so funny."

"Aim and shoot!"

With a muffled buzzing sound, the crossbow shot out and flew towards the big banner in the distance. Without the slightest amount of strength, Pun shot down, even so, it still shocked He Tianju a lot. He thought it was safe enough at this distance, but the range of the opponent's crossbow arrows was obviously beyond his judgment. farther away. He raised his head abruptly, staring at the city angrily, and then he saw Mrs. Chen Bin standing on the wall with both legs on the top of the city, and raised a **** towards him.

This gesture was learned by Chen Bin from Xu Yuan, and it is said that Xu Yuan also learned it from Gao Dudu. It is an extremely contemptuous gesture.

He Tianju didn't understand the meaning of this gesture, but he knew that Chen Bin made this gesture at him, definitely not to praise him, looking at this general whom he could not even take a second look at before, He Tianju was full of embarrassment .

The kind of person who has become a traitor himself, but he will not want the whole world to be a traitor.

"Shoot!" He waved his horsewhip angrily and shouted angrily. On the snow platform, dozens of crossbow arrows shot towards him. Chen Bin jumped to the ground and stuck to the root of the battlement. The ground folded on the ice wall, shaking Chen Bin's body continuously, but Chen Bin laughed, "Sure enough, I was scared!"

Under the city~IndoMTL.com~ The drumbeat sounded quickly, and the infantry held up their large shields, turned themselves into a moving turtle shell, and slowly pushed forward. On the city, the soldiers silently loaded the stones Above the simple slingshot. There is no fresh moso bamboo in the city, but there are still many bamboos that were used to build a shelf when the capital was built. Inspired by the big slingshots outside the city, the city also began to make this thing, although it cannot be shot because of the material. It's too far away, but it's still no problem to bounce a ten-jin-heavy stone from the city to dozens of meters away. The craftsmanship of the Central Plains people is naturally not comparable to that of Donghu people. After a series of tempering, these bamboos have excellent elasticity and are not easy to break. have to be replaced.

"Knock open their turtle shells!" A company commander lay on the wall and waved his hand fiercely. Dozens of stone bullets flew out of the city and fell towards the shield that was approaching in the distance. The rumbling sound kept ringing out, shields were smashed piece by piece, revealing the pawns below, many people were smashed to death, bad luck, the last stone bomb smashed the shield, the next one But the stone fell directly on the head, and it was settled on the spot.

Chen Bin didn't pay attention to these. His gaze was fixed on the opponent's cavalry. Today, the opponent will definitely use the cavalry to attack the city.

"Get ready." He shouted at the soldiers who had already prepared in front of several snow platforms, "Let's serve a fresh dish to Donghu barbarians."P
