On the upper floor of the city gate, Li Man'er looked into the distance with the help of a torch.
The cold wind was biting and the dark night was like a giant beast, lying quietly not far away, with its bloody mouth open and its fangs exposed.
Li Man'er's eyes were deep and resolute, and there was a light in his eyes that made people dare not look directly.
Ah Si saw it from the side and felt frightened, as if Li Man'er was planning something big and turbulent.
"Girl, it's windy on the city wall, please go down and wait for a while."
"No need." Li Man'er said, "Have you checked the trebuchet? Are the stones enough?"
"My slave has checked it, and there is no problem. The city gate has also been checked. According to your request, two knife carts were made, and one was also sent to the north gate."
Li Maner became interested and said, "Let's go and have a look."
"Yes." Ah Si accompanied Li Man'er down to the city tower and took a look at the gate-blocking cart blocking the city gate.
As soon as the soldiers of the Iron Blood Battalion saw Li Man'er coming, they immediately saluted, "General."
"General."
Li Man'er is a girl, but she can kill enemies without blinking an eye. She can go into battle to kill enemies, but she doesn't despise the wounded soldiers like them. She even runs to the wounded camp to take care of the wounded.
Changing their dressings and healing their wounds, one person knew that she really regarded these soldiers as brothers, so everyone was convinced and willing to follow her.
"How about it, does everyone know the function of this knife cart?"
Someone bravely said: "Miss Ah Si told us that the knife cart is blocked at the door. If any barbarians rush in, they don't dare to hit the knife cart. We can shoot arrows from behind to kill the enemy."
Li Maner said loudly: "That's right, that's how it is used. Barbarians are human beings too, and they are also afraid of being stabbed by swords, spears, and swords. If such a big knife cart blocks this place, if they want to rush over, they will have to risk their lives."
"Take your life!"
The soldiers all raised their arms and shouted loudly, which was very impressive.
Li Maner asked them to demonstrate it.
There were several people who had been specially trained. They stepped forward as instructed and worked together to push the knife cart to the door against both sides, and quickly removed the wheels. As a result, the knife cart almost didn't move at all, and it took a lot of people to work together to push it.
.The barbarians on the opposite side are not made of steel. If they hit this knife cart, they will definitely die.
On the contrary, if the people on your side want to leave the city, they only need to reinstall the wheels on the body of the vehicle and use the combined efforts of a few people to pull it aside.
Seeing that their movements were skillful, Li Man'er knew that they had practiced a lot in private, and couldn't help but nod.
"Yes, that's it. With this knife cart, brothers can also reduce casualties." Li Man'er said: "Everyone should learn from it and strive to make everyone know how to operate it and cooperate with carrying this knife cart."
"yes."
"General, don't worry."
Li Man'er nodded, turned around and walked back, and asked Ah Si, "Has Beicheng changed their defense? Who is it today?"
"It's still General Jia."
Li Man'er felt that something was not right for some reason. It was Jiaer again. They had been guarding the gate for a long time. Even if the north gate was relatively peaceful, they should take some time off to rest.
Arriving at the top of the city gate, Zhang Jingfeng trotted over to greet us, "General, the scout just came to report that the barbarian army is only ten miles away from us."
"It seems that all the previous arrangements at Xiashitan were destroyed by them. Are they stationed there?"
"Yes! The terrain there is flat and the surrounding area is open, which is suitable for setting up camp. I heard that people from other tribes are also arriving one after another."
"How many people are there this time and who is leading the team."
"There are more than 70,000 people in total. The leader is Ge Dunzhu. There seems to be another one named..."
"Ha Yuezhu."
Zhang Jingfeng nodded immediately, "Yes, it's the moon pearl. It seems to be a woman."
Li Man'er glared at him, "What's wrong with the woman?" Then she went to the city wall.
Ah Si snorted coldly and hurriedly followed Li Man'er. She was now Li Man'er's personal guard, and she followed Li Man'er as closely as possible.
"That's not what I meant." Zhang Jingfeng sighed and was about to say something when he saw Lu Fang and Lu Liang walking over.
"What did you two do?"
Lu Fang smiled and said, "I'm not Lu Liang yet. If I want to see that gate-locked knife cart, I won't be able to pull him back."
"I've seen it, how was it?"
Lu Liang was silent for a moment, thought for a while and then said: "It's a clever idea, but the workmanship is not very good."
"I'm telling you, this is pretty good. You don't have to worry about how tight the time is. It's already great if you can do it." Zhang Jingfeng seemed to have become the arrogant and unruly fighter again, but this time, he was obviously standing on the side of
Li Man'er's side.
This discovery made Lu Fang's heart sink slightly. Li Man'er did have a way of winning people's hearts. In just two days, Zhang Jingfeng changed his tune.
If this continues, I'm afraid it will affect the overall plan.
Lu Fang remained calm, staring at the endless darkness of the night in trance, not knowing what he was thinking.
The cold wind blew the flags on the wall loudly. The soldier guarding the city couldn't help but lean against the wind, trying to keep himself warmer. Probably because of the change in angle, he suddenly discovered that there was something in the far corner of the city.
A flash of silver light flashed.
The light was so weak that you couldn't tell it without looking carefully. The soldier opened his eyes and took a closer look, only to find that it was clearly the moon illuminating the weak reflection of the weapon!
"The enemy is attacking, the barbarians are coming." The soldier shouted, and then squatted down and hid under the battlements of the city wall. With a whoosh, an arrow flew over his head and landed somewhere unknown.
The fire was so bright that the barbarians who were discovered did not cover themselves up and showed all their belongings.
The trebuchet, the ram, the ram and the ladder, good guys, I brought them all.
Are Li Shu's scouts useless snacks? They didn't even detect this. Li Man'er really wanted to wave his hand and call the second battalion commander to bring up the Italian cannon.
The war was about to break out, and the soldiers on the city wall quickly reacted and took up their weapons to fight. Some raised shields to resist the rain of arrows, while others held spears, preparing to fight to the death with the barbarians attacking the city.
The crossbowmen stood in two rows, listening to orders and firing arrows. On the city wall, there was a rain of arrows, killing countless barbarians.
Li Man'er drew her bow and nocked an arrow, aiming at the barbarian soldier controlling the trebuchet in the farthest place, and shot it. Zhang Jingyuan and Ah Si were standing next to her, and they didn't know which one she was aiming at, and they didn't know after looking at it for a long time.
See whether the arrow hit or not.
Li Man'er, on the other hand, naturally saw that the barbarian who threw stones was hit in the chest by an arrow and fell to the ground.
But soon someone stepped forward to take his place, moving rocks and shooting.
Li Man'er quickly shot another arrow, hitting the man's neck and piercing his throat.
"The general shot two arrows, can you see where they landed?"
Ah Si had no time to reply. The stick in her hand danced like a tiger, knocking a barbarian who had just climbed down directly from the city wall.
