The sound of fighting was deafening, and the fierce battle on the city wall continued.
Jial may seem to have a bad temper, but he is actually someone who can listen to advice. He accepted all the suggestions that Li Man'er provided to him.
Jal asked people to prepare copper oil, gunwool, and water on the city wall, and poured a thick layer of ice shell on the upper half of the wall.
The ice shell was greased, making it difficult to climb up with a ladder. Naturally, the barbarians did not know these key points and suffered a loss when they first started to attack the city.
The opponent brought trebuchets. I don’t know why, but they only set up two of them. Before they could work, they were misfired by the stone lifters from the Old City.
Li Man'er observed the direction of the wind, moved closer to Ah Si, and accompanied her to kill the enemy.
The long knife couldn't be used on the city wall and was somewhat in the way. Li Man'er chopped twice, then threw the long knife aside and picked up the unused short knife.
Her sword skills were fast and her strength was very strong. Often the attackers would be chopped down by Li Man'er as soon as they showed up, causing them to fall off the ladder.
Li Man'er asked him to take tung oil and pour it down the ladder. When the barbarians smelled the smell of tung oil, they ran back in fear. Some even jumped down from the ladder in mid-air.
But the arrow that ignited the collodion was very fast, and with a whoosh, it penetrated the person on the ladder directly. When the flame met the oil, it burned with a roar, and the person and the ladder were instantly ignited.
The wind started blowing, and the fire burned more and more fiercely, turning the tower below into a living hell. The barbarians were burned and rolling around. Many people wanted to come forward to save them, but unfortunately the wind and heat were too strong and they couldn't save them at all.
A single spark can start a prairie fire.
The barbarians probably did not expect that the siege ended after less than an hour.
A fire burned many of their ladders, and more importantly, many people were burned to death. The scene was tragic, and the smell of roasted human flesh in the air became stronger and stronger. The soldiers' morale was weakened, and they had no choice but to retreat.
Li Nian was so happy that he kissed a thousand people and followed him out of the city to kill the retreating troops.
Li Man'er stood on it and took a look. The defeated soldiers retreated without any order or formation, so there was no need to worry that they were making a plan, so they did not stop them.
Sure enough, not long after Li Nian and the others rushed out, the barbarians ran around like bereaved dogs, completely unable to fight back. The cavalry had an advantage. How could those barbarians who ran on two legs outrun Li Nian's horses?
The knife fell from his hand, and his head rolled.
It wasn't until he had a good kill that he brought everyone back.
The soldiers on the city wall cheered as usual, they had won, although everything in front of them was temporary.
Although the barbarians withdrew their troops, everyone knew that they would make a comeback soon. This time, the barbarians were really not just pretending to harass and attack by surprise.
They were extremely ambitious and wanted to break through Mobei City first, and then send their troops south to annex the entire Zun Kingdom.
Li Man'er sat in the tent, listening to the generals gnashing their teeth and debating, and sneered in her heart.
Want to annex Zunguo? You have such a strong tone, and you are not afraid of breaking your teeth.
She sat next to Li Nian. Although she was in the last seat, for Li Man'er, this was not a big deal. She didn't care about it at all.
However, it seems that her appearance has made many people unhappy.
"I say General Li, you can't use the public for personal gain like you do, right? Your appearance is too ugly."
Li Nian tried to understand and pretended to be confused, "Master Ji, why don't I understand what you mean? Mr. Li is not well-educated. If you have anything to say, you can just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush with me here."
Mr. Ji is young and is a civilian supervisor.
Li Man'er had only seen this kind of thing in history textbooks. I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see it alive today. What a blessing it was in my lifetime!
However, she didn't intend to speak. After all, what she said was quite elegant, and she didn't scold her, so why get angry!
"General Li keeps saying that he doesn't care about the military power of the Marquis, but you are just trying to overstep his authority. Now you have brought a woman to the military camp. What is going on?"
Li Man'er's eyes immediately looked over, staring at Mr. Ji fiercely with a fierce look in his eyes.
When the Discipline Supervisory Army saw that Li Man'er was as bloody as a hellish Rakshasa, he didn't dare to speak anymore. My dear, this young lady Li is so young, how can she be so terrifying and even equal to these generals?
He also overpowered them.
"General Li, don't bully me too much. Although Mr. Ji is a civil servant, his words still have some truth. Since the Lord has sent Mr. Ji here, it shows that he has great trust and respect for Mr. Ji." The two people who spoke.
He had no flesh on his cheeks and had a pair of triangular eyes. Li Man'er could faintly see the shadow of Cui on his body.
He is scheming and has a mean appearance. He is not a good person at first glance.
No matter what age, there are always those who take advantage of others, and excluding dissidents has become the most common method in the court and in the military camp.
"I haven't asked this gentleman yet..."
The triangle-eyed man snorted coldly, "My surname is Feng."
"General Feng, do you mean that my third uncle is openly seeking public benefit for personal gain and wants to promote my Li family and strengthen the reputation of my Hou family?"
"Isn't it?"
"Fart, I don't shy away from relatives in favor of good people." Li Nian has tolerated this bastard for a long time. If he hadn't thought about the overall situation, he would have wanted to go over and have a fight with this shameless person.
"Third uncle, there is no need to be angry. Let's see my niece teach him how to behave." Li Maner's voice was so loud that almost everyone present heard it.
Luo Sheng leaned on the chair and looked at Li Man'er playfully, with a hint of interest flashing in his eyes. It's interesting, it's so interesting. This girl Li has such a fierce temper. The most important thing is her outstanding appearance.
pretty!
Everyone said that Concubine Luo was so favored because she had a face that would make anyone admire her. When his eldest sister was young, she was very charming. It was hard to compare her appearance to any of the concubines in the palace.
But this Li Man'er is even more beautiful than the eldest sister, which is really rare.
General Feng stood up suddenly and said, "Yellow-haired girl, you still dare to speak arrogantly. Who are you going to teach to be a good person?"
Li Maner smiled softly and said, "General Feng, why should you be angry? If you want to listen to the truth, I will explain it to you; if you are not convinced and want to take action, I can also accompany you. Although I am young, I am also a woman.
, but his ability to kill enemies is far superior to that of adults."
Li Maner stood up generously, stretched out his arms, and showed everyone the blood stains on his body, "I was on the city wall, fighting against the enemy with the soldiers, and the blood on my body is the blood of the barbarians. You
Mr. Feng, it’s clean from head to toe, I’m afraid you haven’t even chopped off any barbarian hair, right?”
Some people couldn't help it and laughed on the spot.
