Shanyu of the Eastern Barbarians pointed at the tribal leader and cursed: "Go back immediately and continue the attack, or I will kill you now and drive everyone in your tribe out to feed the wolves!"
Before the war started, Shanyu controlled the children of all the tribes. He called it protecting the children. In fact, everyone knew that he was using children to threaten the tribes.
If you are obedient and go to attack the city, all the children in the tribe will survive. If you are disobedient, not only will the adults be executed as deserters, but the children will also be killed by the Chanyu to frighten other tribes.
Seeing that Shan Yu had made up his mind, the tribal leader lowered his head, gritted his teeth, turned around and left on horseback.
The Shanyu of the Eastern Barbarians stared at the leader's back for a while, and then sent a personal guard to the front line to see what was going on.
Soon, the bodyguard came back, his face turned pale.
"What's going on up front?"
Shan Yu had a bad premonition in his heart.
This personal guard has been with him for many years. He is not a timid person who is afraid of death. Besides, it is not his turn to attack the city. Why is he so scared?
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... the reinforcements from Yuguan City are holding fire-breathing sticks. Once they spray fire, a large number of our people will die!"
The guard replied tremblingly: "If our people rush forward, some of them will be killed. If we rush forward, some of them will be killed!"
"A fire-breathing stick?"
Upon hearing this, the Chanyu drove his horse along the edge of the battlefield and ran near the front line.
Looking at the musketeers on the city wall, Chanyu finally understood why the guards were afraid, and finally understood why the tribal leaders were unwilling to attack the city.
Just like what the personal guards said, if the stick in the reinforcements' hand sprays fire, everyone on their side will die.
The Shanyu of the Eastern Barbarians gritted his teeth and gave the order to retreat with a face full of reluctance!
That fire-breathing stick is obviously a new weapon created by the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau. It is too lethal. Before you figure out what it is and find a way to break it, if you let cannon fodder attack the city, you will die in vain!
Although Shan Yu is cruel and doesn't care about the life and death of the cannon fodder, if he continues to die like this, the cannon fodder may rebel.
As a burst of gongs and drums sounded, the cannon fodder herdsmen who were attacking the city rolled and crawled back as if they were about to receive amnesty.
Just like the ebbing sea water, in just ten minutes, it retreated beyond the attack range of the catapult.
"Won!"
"We held it!"
"Sister, what is this in your hand? Why is it so powerful?"
On the city wall, the female soldiers cheered loudly, but when they shouted, they cried.
In the morning, when they saw mountains and seas of enemies approaching, they all thought they were doomed.
As a result, the reinforcements arrived in time, and they not only defended Yuguan City, but also killed the enemy and fled.
This made the female soldiers feel like they were surviving a disaster, and they also became very curious about the muskets in the hands of the female workers!
"Although the enemy has retreated, he may come back at any time!"
Liu Tie found Chen Fengzhi and Zuo Feifei: "It stands to reason that the two leaders who came from afar for reinforcements must be very tired, but I hope that the two leaders can help guard the city wall first and let my people rescue the wounded first.
"
Before reinforcements arrived, the bodyguards and female soldiers on the north wall had already engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, and many of them were injured at this time.
"Tiezi, what are you talking about? Why don't you help me guard you? Do you think we are outsiders?"
Chen Fengzhi glanced at Liu Tie: "If it weren't for the injuries on your body, I would really kick you!"
"Brother Tiezi, you are really angry when you say that. Sir, he brought us here for reinforcements. It is our duty to defend the city."
Zuo Feifei also followed suit.
"Okay, okay, it's all my fault," Liu Tie quickly admitted defeat: "Then I won't be polite to you two, and make arrangements quickly!"
Chen Fengzhi and Zuo Feifei also knew that now was not the time for small talk, so they turned around and arranged their respective manpower to take over the defense, allowing the bodyguards and female soldiers to come down and take a breather.
On the south side of the city wall, Wei Sheng's army continued to tie up prisoners, while Jin Feng, led by his personal guards, headed towards the south city wall.
When he walked more than a hundred meters away from the city wall, Jin Feng stopped.
In his previous life, he often saw words like "mountain of corpses and sea of blood" in novels, but this time he really saw a mountain of corpses.
In front of Jin Feng's eyes was a mountain of corpses and rubble!
This is the attack area for catapults and the only way for the Jin-Barbarian coalition to attack the city.
The civilians were driven past here by the soldiers, and then they were hit by stones and became part of the mountain.
After so many days of siege, the height of the mountain of corpses even exceeded the southern wall of Yuguan City.
Even though it was not Jin Feng's first time on the battlefield, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
"Sir, I just asked a random prisoner. They were all Jin people. They were recruited by the King of Jin to transport food and grass for the Jin barbarian coalition. Then when they got here, Feng Shicai asked the soldiers to force them to attack the city. Slowly
If you take one step, you will be beaten to death by the soldiers."
Meng Tianhai followed Jin Feng, looked at the mountain of corpses and cursed: "Feng Shicai is really nothing. If he hadn't been killed by the bomb, I would have killed him with a thousand knives!"
In fact, Meng Tianhai didn't need to tell him, Jin Feng could tell from the clothes on the corpse.
The deceased were basically dressed in rags, with almost no weapons in their hands, and most of them had just straw sandals on their feet. What are they if they are not peasants transporting food?
It was precisely because of this that Jin Feng felt uncomfortable just now.
Since ancient times, when there is a war, it is always the people who suffer.
"Sir, please take a rest, we will clear a way out, and then you can enter the city!"
Tie Chui noticed that Jin Feng's expression was wrong and asked in a low voice.
At this time, the road is blocked by a mountain of corpses. If you want to pass, you must climb over it.
"It's okay, just turn over!"
Jin Feng waved his hand and began to climb the corpse mountain.
Although he felt uncomfortable in his heart, he knew even more clearly that there were enemies at his feet. Once they were allowed to rush into Yuguan City, Jin Feng knew what would happen to the bodyguards and female soldiers guarding the city without even thinking!
Climb over the strip mountain and walk a few dozen meters further to the south wall of Yuguan City.
There is also a corpse mountain under the city wall. Although it is not as big as the corpse mountain, the corpse mountain leaning on the city wall is composed entirely of corpses, with almost no stones!
Climb up this mountain of corpses and then onto the south wall of Yuguan City.
"gentlemen!"
"Mr. Jin, it's really you!"
"I just said it was Mr. Jin, but you still don't believe it!"
"Sir, Yuguan City is so dangerous, what are you doing here?"
The bodyguards and female soldiers greeted Jin Feng one after another.
Mr. Tian also came up and saluted Jin Feng: "Sir, if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, you are a man of gold, and you should not come here to put yourself in danger!"
"What a body of gold, am I not just like everyone else, with one head and two hands?"
Jin Feng glanced at Mr. Tian: "We are all made of flesh and blood. Girls can fight to the death to guard the border. Why can't I, a handsome man like Jin Feng, come?"
