[69 Book Bar - www.] At night, none of us dared to sleep. The vanguard camped until the moon was high, and then a group of soldiers and horses from the central army took over. The others went down to the city to have a rest.
Qi Lie moved my things from that small house to the camp. Now I don't dare to live outside alone anymore. The woman Qi Lie kidnapped is still under the care of the baggage camp, and Qi Lie gave her some food.
.
I had just taken off my heavy armor when suddenly there was a loud noise from the center of the camp.
The snakemen have already invaded the city?
I was shocked and jumped up from the bed. The wound was affected and it hurt a little. I rushed out of the tent and saw many people from the forward camp coming out. Some people were talking: "What's going on?"
At this time, I heard Deyang shouting: "Generals, it's nothing serious. Someone in my supply camp was burning a stove, and it exploded."
The soldiers in the forward battalion went back to sleep cursing. I looked towards Deyang and saw him cursing: "Zhang Dai! How can you cause trouble if you don't do good things? Why are you here to cause trouble? Damn it, this time I will
I can’t protect you. You guys, chop him down!”
I walked over and said, "Master De, what's wrong?"
Deyang turned around, saw it was me, and said, "Master Chu, are you also woken up? It doesn't matter."
I saw two soldiers beside him holding down a man with a black face. This man's clothes were also torn with holes and his face was covered with black ash, but he still had a look of fear on his face. I
Said: "Who is he?"
Deyang said: "He is a soldier in the supply camp, his name is Zhang Longyou, and his nickname is idiot. He always does some weird things. I saw that he was quick and agile in the past, so I didn't fire him. What happened today, I am very angry.
You can’t kill him.”
I asked: "How did he make such a noise?"
Deyang said: "Who knows? He has been burning things all day long, but he made such a loud noise just now. If he disturbs the morale of the army, he should be killed by law."
Although Deyang was not a person on the battlefield, he was a baggage officer. He also had the power of life and death in the baggage camp. I walked up to Zhang Longyou. He was very young and short. At first glance, he did not look like he could become a general.
God knows how this person joined the army. It’s just that his eyes are very nimble, and he doesn’t look blank when he looks at them.
I said: "Master Deyang, now is the time to employ people. Let him join the forward camp. Don't kill him."
Deyang said: "Of course it's good that General Chu has this intention. Zhang Dai, please thank General Chu."
As soon as Zhang Longyou was let go, he saluted me in a neither humble nor overbearing manner and said: "General Chu, thank you very much."
Deyang said angrily: "Idiot, if I spare you, you still act like one. You really don't want to live long, don't you?"
I said: "Master De, don't be acquainted with him. Zhang Longyou, please put your things in order and come to my camp to meet me tomorrow."
After that, he yawned and went back to sleep.
When I woke up, it was already bright. I was surprised. There had never been such a peaceful night in all the battles. I walked out of the camp and saw Qi Lie already practicing boxing outside. When he saw me, he said: "General, get up.
Is it better? Is the wound getting better?"
I pressed lightly through the gauze. There was still some pain, but it was not too severe. It seemed that the medical officer was not sure. I said, "Xiao Lie, were you okay last night?"
Qi Lie said: "There is no assembly order, so it must be fine."
This night, the snake man didn't come to harass me, which was strange. I stretched my body and said, "Xiao Lie, bring me my soft armor."
Wearing the armor was very tiring. Fortunately, even if we fought again, we were still defending the city, and the soft armor was enough. Qi Lie took out the soft armor from inside and put it on for me. I said: "Ask them to assemble, we have to go Shift change."
Just when I reached the bottom of the city, a young man wearing only a military uniform suddenly ran up to me and said, "General Chu, I'm here."
I looked him up and down, but I didn't recognize him. I said, "Who are you?"
He said: "I am Zhang Longyou. You asked me to follow you last night."
I said, "What are you doing here? Go back first, and I'll talk to you when I get back in the evening."
Zhang Longyou said: "General Chu, I can also use weapons, let me go up."
At this time, only a cry of surprise was heard from above, and someone shouted: "The monster is attacking again!"
Attacking again? I was surprised. It's dawn now. The snake people don't attack the city when it's dark at night, but attack the city during the day. Do they mean to die? But even if we have the advantage, we have to repel the snake people. It's still not easy.
I couldn't help but think too much, but there was a rumbling sound outside the city. I ran towards the city, and said to Zhang Longyou: "You are not afraid of death, come up. You can also move some rocks." I ran a few steps, turned around and said: " Xiaolie, if you have many armors, give him one quickly."
I ran to the top of the city. At this time, the group of snake people had reached the moat again. This time, it was completely dark. Maybe half of the group of snake people had come to attack the city.
Are they going to repeat yesterday's scene?
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a commotion in the snake army. I didn't know what happened among the snakes. At this time, the snakes in the front row suddenly moved out of the way, and many wooden round signs rushed out from behind.
Those are some shields!
Although it was crudely made, it was indeed a shield.
The group of snake men raised the round plaques above their heads and began to cross the river.
As soon as the Snake Man crossed the river, another arrow was fired from the city. This time, all the arrows were stuck on the shield, but none of them could hit the Snake Man.
Did the Snake Man have a countermeasure so quickly?
I waved my gun and said, "Use a long gun and put the tomahawk beside you. Everyone, be careful."
At this time, I ate so much that Zhang Longyou said timidly: "General Chu, where should I be?"
The first batch of several hundred snakemen had crossed the moat. I turned around and looked at him. He was wearing soft armor that didn't fit well, and he was holding a long gun in his hand. He looked like that, and it really didn't look good. Like a soldier. I sighed and said: "You are behind, help me move the rocks."
This time it was a close fight. When we defended the city, the most commonly used weapon on the city was stones. Each battalion had to send men to move the stones. Asking Zhang Longyou to do this can be considered as a showcase of his abilities. .
The snake men had arrived at the edge of the city, threw their wooden shields across the moat, and began to climb up the city. As soon as they climbed up the city wall, the bricks and stones on the top of the city fell like raindrops. However, the snake men were extremely stoic and died. They didn't retreat. But the rocks were too dense. A snake man climbed halfway up and was finally knocked down. But those snake men came one after another with no intention of retreating. Even if they fell down the city, they just turned over and fell down. Climb up again.
At this time, a snake man had climbed to the top of the city where the fifth battalion was stationed. The snake man ignored the stones thrown at it. Seeing that it was approaching the city head, I raised the spear on one side and aimed at it. He aimed at it and shouted: "Get down, you monsters!"
My spear struck down. It was difficult for the snake man to swim up the city wall. When I thrust down, it had no way to dodge. It just glanced at me with its bright yellow eyes.
