The next day it was the fourth formation's turn to defend the city, and the second formation's support. Everyone knew that the alien army attacked the city on two days, and today was a single day, so everyone climbed up the city wall slowly. A few people who knew each other still knew each other.
After saying hello, Zhang Xiaowu ran to the front team and saw Li Xiang rubbing Shao Zifu's shoulders with two dumb recruits standing beside him. He smiled and said: "Commander, I'm here to visit you, Li Xiaolang.
Have you been promoted?"
"I am the first guard of the corps commander." Li Xiang said confidently, causing the people around him to laugh. Shao Zifu laughed and said: "Knead it well. If the dog barbarian attacks, if I can't lift my arm, it's really up to you."
Block the arrow for me."
"Here." Li Xiang flattered him quickly with his hands and feet.
Shao Zifu asked: "Zhang Xiaolang, how does it feel to be a corps commander?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "That's it. I don't think it's that difficult."
"Not modest, impetuous, too impetuous." Shao Zifu said with a smile.
Zhang Xiaowu was about to speak when he saw the gate of the alien camp in the distance opened wide and a group of soldiers rushed out. He immediately shouted: "Why are Quan Yi not punctual? Isn't it time to rest today?" The other soldiers hurriedly stood up and walked away.
Looking from a distance, I saw tens of thousands of foreign troops rushing out of the camp gate in a short time, carrying ladders and carrying shields, and the cavalry had already rushed in with their bows drawn, preparing to suppress the Han army with a wave of mounted fire.
"They are Utu people." Chen Tai came over at some point and said, "The Utu people should have just arrived at the battlefield."
"Where is Utu?"
"It is also one of the countries in the Western Region, but it is further to the west than Uzi and Yuezhi. It is said that the Utu people are good at raising snakes and poisonous insects." Chen Tai said, "Utu has always had a sparse population and did not participate in the struggle for world hegemony. Today
He actually came too."
The military commander Ding Yi was shouting in the distance to prepare for battle, and Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly ran back to the rear team. Captain Liu Ji scolded him a few words, and he smiled shamelessly and returned to the team.
Then Zhang Xiaowu scolded the enemy for not being punctual, and ordered the soldiers to put their shields on their heads. Min Erlang and Mo Qing also immediately raised their shields and leaned against the wall. However, the grandfather and grandson did not know how to engage in battle. Zhang Xiaowu scolded: "Study
Me! Learn from me!" The grandfather and grandson hurriedly raised their shields and stood next to Zhang Xiaowu, squatting on the ground nervously.
Immediately, arrows rained down like rain. Zhang Xiaowu was not afraid and laughed softly: "You don't have to go out to the city to collect arrows today. It saves you the trouble of drawing lots to select people." Tao Wang quickly asked what the draw was for, and Zhang Xiaowu refused to accept it.
After telling him the story, Tao Wang stared with bright eyes and said, "I also want to stay awake all night."
Under the cover of the rain of arrows, the Utu army came up to kill them. After the Han army's bow formation and exchanged fire with each other, the Utu people began to build ladders to attack the city. Perhaps because it was their first time on the battlefield, the Utu people were high-spirited and finally
In front of them were all sturdy Utu men, actually going into battle shirtless.
Zhang Xiaowu laughed loudly: "Do they think they are Baahubali?" As he spoke, he raised his spear and pierced it suddenly. The shirtless Utu man climbed up with his knife, and unexpectedly a spear passed through him.
The chest then penetrated the second person's body, and then the third person's body. The spear tip stopped just above the tip of the fourth person's nose. Only then did the fourth Utu man realize that the first three
The comrade was so frightened that he screamed and jumped off the ladder after being skewered with candied haws. However, the fifth man was unlucky. The candied haws fell straight down, and the fifth man was stabbed to death at the bottom of the city.
For a moment, the Utu people in front of them were frightened and at a loss.
Zhang Xiaowu shouted: "Smash it with a sandbag, quickly!"
"Here."
At this moment, not only his own team, but also the entire team rushed up and smashed them with sandbags. The Utu people cried out for their fathers and mothers and did not dare to attack in this direction for a while. After the Utu people adjusted, they finally learned to be smart.
He continued to climb the ladder with his shield to attack the city. At this time, the second formation of reinforcements also rushed up. More than 800 people from the two formations guarded the city wall. The Utu people could not climb the city with only their courage.
But the Utu people soon started to use dirty tricks. The soldiers in the front pushed against the Holy Han army, and the people in the rear suddenly ran the poisonous snakes towards the city wall. Several careless Han soldiers stepped on the poisonous snakes and were bitten. In fact, the poisonous snakes
It was not very lethal, but it brought great psychological pressure to the soldiers defending the city. Some soldiers were so frightened that they jumped onto the wall and were immediately shot to death by enemy bows and arrows.
Wang Jian, the captain of the Fourth Formation, was so angry that he ordered Chen Tai to lead people to kill the snakes, and cursed that the Utu people only had this ability. The Utu people really only had this ability, and even after throwing away the poisonous snakes, they did not attack the city.
, had no choice but to withdraw the troops angrily.
"What a ghost. Are there going to be dog barbarians with naked eyes attacking the city in the future?" Zhang Xiaowu breathed a sigh of relief and sat slumped aside. This time, none of the four of his men were injured or killed, which is very good, very good.
After a short rest, Lieutenant Liu Ji came over and said that his Shi Chang was dead. He was bitten in the calf by a poisonous snake and died of poisonous poisoning before he could get treatment. Zhang Xiaowu didn't even remember Shi Chang's name and watched him being carried by everyone.
After descending the city wall, I mourned silently in my heart for a while, then returned to my sentry post.
There were only three teams in this team. Liu Ji hesitated and chose Zhang Xiaowu among the three team captains to be the commander and captain of the team. Zhang Xiaowu was surprised and said: "I just became the team leader three days ago, and today I become the team leader."
What have you done? Sir, are you my long-lost biological elder brother?"
Liu Ji didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Although the other two have been in the army for a long time, they are not as brave and good at fighting as you - they were also forced to become captains after the entire team died, and they are not as capable as you."
Zhang Xiaowu said clearly: "As long as you are alive, you can be promoted."
Liu Jidao: "That's wrong. Only by promotion can you live."
Zhang Xiaowu generously praised: "Sir, it's a pity that you don't go to Taipei University. You can see much more clearly than the contemporary scholars. Life is just a matter of closing and opening your eyes. A day has passed. If you close your eyes, a whole life has passed."
.”
Liu Ji laughed and fell in love with this young man even more.
The fourth team had three days of rest. In the evening, perhaps due to Zhang Xiaowu's good luck, no one of the twelve members of the Benshi team got the red lottery. Even Liu Ji praised him and said he was old.
God favors.
In this regard, Zhang Xiaowu explained: "God loves handsome children."
The only difference between being a commander and a corps commander is that he has more contact with the captain and gets more military pay. However, Zhang Xiaowu has a lot of coins in his pocket, so he is not short of the military pay. Besides, the city is in panic now, and food is scarce.
Under the control, there was no place to spend money. In the past three days, the superiors had added three soldiers to the team. They were all elderly recruits. Zhang Xiaowu looked at these "new recruits" who were more than three times older than himself.
, sighed slightly, it seemed that there were fewer and fewer people in Tucheng.
Three days later, it was the fourth formation's turn to defend the city again. The alien army attacked the city as promised. All the soldiers complained that they were unlucky. This time, the dog barbarians who attacked the city were replaced by experienced Uzi soldiers.
The Uzi Kingdom is located in the southern part of the Wuhuan Empire. They generally have big eyes, curly hair, dark skin, and short stature. They are best at singing and dancing. They were originally a country that had always been in harmony with its neighbors. Due to the coercion of the Wuhuan people, Wuzi
The people also had to join the war.
Because the Wuzi people were weak, they used slender waist swords. As siege weapons, the Wuzi people's waist swords could neither penetrate the Han army's armor nor resist the Han army's weapons. The Han army soldiers
It is easy to stab enemies climbing ladders on top of the city.
"Enter the battle!"
The military commander Ding Yi was still commanding loudly from a distance, and the sergeants of Yiziying stood up to kill the enemy.
"roar!"
After Zhang Xiaowu stabbed and killed four enemies, he was replaced by Min Erlang. Unexpectedly, Min Erlang got too excited after stabbing an Uzi soldier to death, and was accidentally caught by an Uzi soldier with a flying hook.
He was pulled off the wall, fell to the bottom of the city, and was immediately cut into pieces by the Uzi people.
"This bastard!" Zhang Xiaowu yelled angrily, feeling sorry for this bastard who was not smart enough, and now he finally died because of his stupidity.
Mo Qing stepped forward as a substitute and brandished a spear to stab an Uzi warrior down a long ladder. Zhang Xiaowu immediately blocked him with a spear.
"Whoosh..."
A sharp arrow shot past Mo Qing's ear, and a scream of "ah" was heard. Zhang Xiaowu looked back and saw an arrow stuck in the eye socket of the old man Tao, the grandson and grandson.
