Chapter 139 Leading the way
Since the general who conquered the south knew that the city wall was difficult to conquer, but still led a large group of troops to come, then the purpose was obvious.
This time Princess Changle wants to deal with Lei Pen and the others, to solve these troubles for King Li, and to share King Li's worries.
Lei Pen and others had already taken precautions against the unkind arrival of General Zhengnan, but they did not expect that General Zhengnan would be so ruthless and have such a dark heart, and wanted to get rid of them completely.
Now Liu Ming was forced by General Zhengnan to attack the city wall. Liu Ming wanted to refuse, but although this idiot didn't care about anything, he still had some sense in his heart. He knew that if he dared to refuse, he might
This General Zhengnan would kill himself on the spot.
In desperation, Liu Ming had no choice but to take the order and lead his troops to attack the city.
As soon as Liu Ming left, General Zhengnan looked at Yang Jie again and said, "Well, General Yang, please help Liu Ming and assist him in attacking the city."
Yang Jie originally thought that he had escaped, but he did not expect that the Zhengnan General would not let him go. He was talking about assisting the siege. In fact, it was no different from siege. The two families combined had less than one man.
Wan, this is to die.
The General Zhengnan didn't care whether Yang Jie obeyed the order or not. He looked at Lei Pen again and said, "General Lei, please continue to attack the city with these two generals."
Lei Pen immediately became furious and said, "General Zhengnan, I'm sorry that I won't be able to obey your orders."
What?
How dare Ray-Ban disobey orders!
Ray-Ban's move shocked everyone present. You must know that the current King Li has a strong sense of authority and is the most powerful king in history.
General Zhengnan is the plenipotentiary representative appointed by him to conquer the southern wilderness. This Lei Pen now dares to openly disobey the orders of General Zhengnan. In fact, he is just like the general who disobeyed King Li. So what is waiting for Lei Pen is definitely not a good one.
result.
But Lei Ban just did this and refused the order of General Zhengnan without hesitation.
"General Lei, do you dare to disobey me?"
Princess Changle's voice was cold, and no one would doubt that the next moment, General Zhengnan would order his personal guards to come forward and take the man, cut off Lei Pen's head, and give orders to the entire army.
"You are avenging a private vendetta and deliberately letting us die. This is your selfish motive."
Lei Pengeng asked the soldier, "Why don't you take your Conquest Army to attack the city?"
"But you asked us to die. You are the one who borrowed a knife to kill someone. I don't believe that the king would do this. You must have made your own decision without telling the king."
"Unless the king also orders us to attack the city, I will not attack the city, and the king will not do this kind of thing."
When Lei Pen said this, he really told General Zhengnan to stop.
.
You can study now. Yes, if you have the ability, go to Yiwang to handle this matter. Anyway, King Li will not harm his soldiers. If it doesn't go well, it will be you, Princess Changle, who secretly reported military information. You are busy.
You go down.
Princess Changle couldn't help but roll her eyes. Finally, when she said that General Tao Ben would personally lead his army to attack the city, he would watch from the sidelines. He must convince you by then, otherwise he will have you punished by military law.
engage in.
Lei Ban didn't take General Zhengnan's words seriously at all. The uncle and aunt casually made a gesture of invitation, "You said you are really capable, then let us see how you attack the city."
General Zhennan didn't want to attack the city, but after being hit by Lei-Ban like this, he really looked guilty if he didn't attack the city, so he simply attacked the city wall and used Lei-Ban's head to sort it out.
, anyway, this was taught by an engineer, not one of my own.
It is true that despite looking at it, General Zhengnan led many people, but in fact he only had very few people who were close to him.
In fact, the tens of thousands of land reclamation troops had nothing to do with him at all. The southern expedition army brought by Jie was prepared by King Li for him.
Therefore, except for his own bodyguards, General Zhengnan's troops all belong to others. In this way, even if they all die during the project, he will not suffer any losses.
General Zhengnan personally commanded the army, and an army of 100,000 engineering soldiers dispatched together.
Although he did not bring any large siege equipment, General Zhengnan ordered some simple catapults and siege engines, and then began to march towards the city wall.
Wu Feng still used the old method of covering it with arrows first.
Due to the increase in manpower now, the production of arrows is faster than before.
There are more manpower, so these arrows with magic power have become the arrows required by the Thunder Arrow Array. In the rain of arrows covering the city, it can be said that nearly half of them are magic arrows.
In this way, there was magic power in the arrows, which forced the siege team to retreat.
A large number of arrows covered the front of the formation, making it impossible for the siege army to reach the city wall. Princess Changle ordered to cut down trees to make a giant shield, and marched to the bottom of the city wall with the giant shield on top.
There is nothing else in this southern wilderness jungle, but there are indeed many huge trees.
This giant shield is also simple to make. Just cut a tree into several sections, then cut it into pieces, and then nail them together to form a large wooden shield. Then put it on top of the person's head, and put it down on top.
The magic circle became a huge shield, blocking the covering rain of arrows.
In this way, whether it is a magic arrow or an ordinary arrow, the damage to this person will not be as great as before, allowing the siege team to approach the city wall.
At the same time, the kind that is tall and can be moved
A lot of work was done on the archery tower. General Zhengnan ordered them to come close and shoot to suppress the archers on the city wall.
But General Zhengnan didn't know that Wu Feng was mainly using thunder arrow formations. This kind of arrow formations were not arranged on the city wall, but on the mountain peaks on both sides and in the area behind the city wall. Therefore, against
Its suppression is destined to fail.
Of course, it still acted as a hindrance to the archers who mainly fired ordinary arrows. Both sides shot at each other on the towers and archery towers, each trying to suppress the other.
Since there are many trees in the dense forest area, General Zhengnan ordered many ladders to be built, and a large group of people climbed up along the ladders.
The Sword Alliance pushed those ladders up and poured down the kerosene to hinder the siege of the southern army.
Suddenly, countless soldiers of the Conquest of the South fell down under the city and were burned by kerosene. Some even had their skins burned off, leaving only their flesh and blood crawling around.
The Zhengnan Army is attacking, while the Sword Alliance is defending. Anyway, it's you and me going back and forth, and the Zhengnan Army can't gain any upper hand.
General Zhengnan looked at Lei Pen and said, "How about General Lei? My Zhengnan Army is already attacking the city, do you still want to continue to resist the order? It can be said that you had doubts before, but now I have proved it to you.
, I really have not conserved my strength. If you continue to resist the order, then I will tell you directly, General Lei, I will engage in military law against you. "
Lei Ban sneered and said, "In that case, I have nothing to say. Isn't it just death? Even if all the 100,000 troops died under this city, the one who suffered the loss would not be me, Lei Pen, but Li Guo.
It's your Majesty. When the time comes, I'll see how you, the general who conquered the South, should explain to the King."
Princess Changle's expression was solemn and her tone was cold, "How should I explain to the king? That's my business and you don't need to take care of it. What I'm asking now is General Lei, whether you should attack the city or not."
?
Lei Pen looked at General Zhengnan with hatred, and finally laughed when he saw the unyielding look in Princess Changle's eyes.
"Okay, I'll attack the city!"
Not only did Lei Pen order the Southern Army to attack the city, but he also took the lead and rushed to the front. I don’t know what he was thinking in his heart.
Perhaps he was really desperate and decided to live and die with his troops, perishing together at the top of Qixing Mountain City.
Seeing that Lei Pen had led the Zhengnan Army to attack the city, General Zhengnan looked at Yang Jie and Liu Ming again.
Yang Jie couldn't help but cursed in his heart, just let the army go up! Why do you, Ray-Ban, rush up by yourself again? This is great, everyone will follow your example, you are really looking for trouble on your own.
