Outside the county town, there was an overwhelming crowd. On the city wall, the soldiers were very nervous. They all looked at their commander. Hu Hansan, however, looked calm and composed, as if there was nothing outside the city.
Zhuang asked in a low voice: "Brother, can you hold on to this?"
Hu Hansan glanced at Da Zhuang, then raised his voice and said: "Why can't you defend it? Look at who are the people outside the city? They are common people, but there are just more people. There is nothing to be afraid of." Hu Hansan deliberately said
He raised his voice so that everyone around him could hear it. Sure enough, the soldiers felt a lot more at ease after hearing Hu Hansan's words.
Immediately, Hu Hansan looked around, and then continued to raise his voice and said: "Think about your former ruthlessness, if they were allowed to attack," Hu Hansan snorted coldly, but the following words were not spoken. Most of the soldiers on the city wall were
It was the Minzhuang that Hu Hansan gathered together. When the Red Sect started the uprising, they kept bringing the people with them, and they kept fleeing like refugees.
They didn't want to live like that kind of ruthless man who didn't have enough to eat. So, the soldiers clenched the weapons in their hands, and their eyes became more determined. The morale of the soldiers had obviously changed, and Hu Hansan looked around with satisfaction.
Everything. Since then, after driving away the envoys from the Red Sect, Hu Hansan ordered the whole city to be on alert.
Sure enough, within a few seconds, an "army" came towards this side. After Mr. Gu and Qian Yi returned full of resentment, they told the story again in a more exaggerated and jealous manner. It was as if they had stepped on everyone's tail.
.Since the Red Sect uprising, the momentum has been so great that no one dares to disobey. Now there are actually people who dare to disobey, and everyone is clamoring to destroy Hu Hansan.[
Hu Hansan was only entrenched in one county town. They had already conquered several county towns, so everyone didn't pay attention. All their attention was on Huacheng, and they just sent an incense master over. This incense master is called Zhao Wuji, and he has control over it.
With about 30,000 people, it is the weakest one.
Of course, Zhao Wuji had resentment in his heart. After breaking through Huacheng, he couldn't imagine what would be better inside, but he was sent here at this juncture to attack Hu Hansan. Now Zhao Wuji just wanted to break through the county seat quickly and chop off Hu Hansan's head.
Then he led the people and quickly rushed back to Huacheng.
Looking at Mr. Gu and Qian Yi who took the initiative to come over, Zhao Wuji had no good expression on his face. Looking at the county seat in the distance, Zhao Wuji had a cold look on his face and said: "Send someone to call the city. If they don't surrender, we will surrender."
After the city is broken, no one will be left behind." After hearing Zhao Wuji's words, a horseman rushed towards the county seat.
Qian Yi said at this time: "Why did Lord Zhao Xiang call the city? This guy won't surrender at all. Why not attack the city immediately?" Zhao Wuji snorted coldly, then looked at Qian Yi with disdain and said, "What do you know?"
After saying that, he ignored Qian Yi. When Zhao Wuji's words came back, Qian Yi suddenly wanted to have a seizure.
But Mr. Gu stopped Qian Yi with his eyes. Although Mr. Gu had a high status in the church, he now had no real power and no one under his command, so Zhao Wuji dared to do this. Qian Yi grew up with Mr. Gu since he was a child.
He was also a powerful figure in the church, but now he is in trouble again and again, how can he endure it?
But he didn't dare to go against Mr. Gu's wishes, so he turned around and left. Seeing this, Mr. Gu's face was very ugly. Zhao Wuji ignored him at all. The horse rushed towards the county seat, although this man
His equestrian skills are indeed good, but he is not riding a high-headed horse but a group of rogue horses, so his speed is not much faster.
But since he left the camp, he attracted the attention of everyone on the city wall. With great difficulty, the knight finally reached a stone's throw under the city wall, and then shouted loudly: "The Lord of Xiang has an order. If you don't surrender, you will be destroyed."
No one will be left behind the city." After hearing these words, the faces of many soldiers on the city wall changed.
Hu Hansan, however, softly uttered the word "shoot." After hearing Hu Hansan's order, a hail of arrows rained down on the cavalryman at the foot of the city. Seeing the cold arrows falling from the sky, the cavalryman was shocked, even though he knew that he was
A stone's throw away, but he still couldn't help but turn around immediately. But the horse under his crotch couldn't keep up with the rhythm.
I saw the man falling directly onto the horse, and then he got on the horse and ran away without even having time to dust himself off. Seeing this scene, Hu Hansan laughed loudly. His laughter infected the soldiers around him.
, and finally the whole city wall burst into roaring laughter. After he stopped, Hu Hansan looked outside the city with a cold look on his face.
After the rider ran back in disgrace, his face was red and he told Zhao Wuji what had just happened. Because of the distance, Zhao Wuji only heard the laughter coming from the distance, but he had no idea what was happening in front of him.
After hearing the report, Zhao Wuji's face was full of mist, and then a cruel smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Order to attack the city."
Hearing Zhao Wuji's words, the man went to deliver the order with a face full of joy. The simple drum made a loud sound, and groups of rioters rushed toward the county town. Each group of rioters was equipped with a red-clothed cultist.
.These red-clothed believers held weapons and directed the mob to rush towards the county town. The red-clothed believers were better off, and they had weapons at least.
But the rebels had various things in their hands, some were long sticks, some were kitchen knives, and some had empty hands. They blindly followed everyone and rushed forward. Looking at the overwhelming siege team, Zhao Wuji also showed a trace of pride on his face.
With a look on his face, he led his men to a high ground and began to watch the battle.
The sound of the simple drum floated to the bottom of the city wall. Hu Hansan's expression tightened and he said: "Here we come, the whole army is on alert." Following Hu Hansan's order, the entire city wall fell into deathly silence, and the soldiers watched intently.
The enemies rushed towards them. Because Hu Hansan did not have any equipment to defend the city, he could only watch the mob getting closer and closer.
It was also the first time for Hu Hansan to command such a large-scale battle. He was very nervous, but he could not show it. He could only release the tension in his heart by holding the handle of the knife tightly. Finally, the mob entered and shot an arrow.
The land. Hu Hansan waved his right hand fiercely and shouted: "Fire the arrow."
After all, Hu Hansan had been in the army and knew the importance of archers. For this reason, he specially formed a team of archers. It was definitely too late to prepare ready-made training, so he could only choose the former hunters. These hunters also rushed to the shelves and transformed themselves.
They became archers. Of course, they did not use the standard bows and arrows in the army, but the horn bows used for hunting.
Because the Red Sect's uprising swept through the entire Huashan County, Hu Hansan was asked to gather some hunters, and there were about 200 people. Now that more than 200 people heard Hu Hansan's order, they began to shoot arrows downwards with horn bows.
The shooting range is relatively short, but fortunately they are on the city wall now, from a high position, so they only need to shoot upward.
The rebels who were attacking the city had no rules at all. They just rushed forward in a swarm. The red-clad cultists just drove them forward. Among them were hidden a thousand elites in the hands of Zhao Wuji. These people are the real killers.
.They hid among the crowds, carrying simple siege ladders on their shoulders.
Arrow clusters kept falling, and the archers on the city wall didn't even bother to aim because there were too many enemies below. The mobs kept screaming and fell down after being hit by arrows. Wave after wave of arrow rain finally made these
The rioters subconsciously slowed down their speed. No one knew whether arrow clusters would suddenly fall from the sky.
Three waves of arrow rain and more than 600 arrow clusters caused a lot of damage. At this time, the archer's arm was a little sore. But the people below didn't know that this unknown fear was the most terrifying. Finally, someone couldn't bear it anymore
He stopped and started to turn around and run towards the back. Of course, a red-clothed cultist raised his knife and dropped the man's head, and the man's head fell to the ground.[
Many rioters ran towards the back, but they were suppressed by the Red Cult's sentimental and bloody heads, and finally stopped the rout. The rioters understood that retreating was a dead end, and that there might be a glimmer of hope in advancing, so they marched again
He ran forward. The fourth wave of arrows rained down, and the fifth wave of arrows rained down, which also caused a lot of damage.
But because of their previous experience, the mob could only grit their teeth and continue rushing forward. On the city wall, Hu Hansan knew that the archers' limit had been reached, so he waved his hand and told them to retreat. The archers received the order and rushed
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Many people's thumbs were already bleeding, and their right arms were very sore.
After rushing for another distance, the mob suddenly discovered that the clusters of arrows that had just frightened them were no longer falling. Then their faces showed joy, and one person shouted: "They are out of stock." Then they headed towards them with their heads down.
Rush forward. After more people agreed with this sentence, they all ran forward with all their strength.
The thousand elites hidden among them were already ready to attack the city as soon as the opportunity came. But they didn't have this chance today. Looking at the rebels who were already approaching the city wall, Hu Han had a look on his face.
He showed a bloodthirsty smile and shouted: "Down."
"Down" people kept passing orders to distant places.
On the city wall, large pots were erected, and the water in them was constantly rolling. After hearing the order, the surrounding soldiers poured the water in the pots down the city wall with sweating profusely. There was a sudden flow below.
There was a burst of screams. The rioters at the front were soaked all over, with blisters everywhere.
However, they did not die immediately, and could only keep looking at their companions behind. This scene shocked the rioters behind, and many people stopped. This kind of scene made them more excited than directly showing the bloody heads.
Fear. At this time, there was another pour on the city wall.
In addition to causing casualties to the rioters, the boiling water also had a greater effect in intimidating the remaining rioters. Finally, someone couldn't help it. Looking at the miserable state of the companion in front who was drenched with boiling water, he yelled, and then
He rushed towards the back like crazy. Before he could get very far, a red-clad cultist cut off his head. However, the head's body continued to run forward for five steps before falling down.
