Chapter 15 Wuqi Town (Five)

The crying and messy footsteps outside the city disturbed this desolate but quiet morning.

Bang!Bang!The sound of the city gate being hit by wood was like an invisible sledgehammer hitting people's hearts, and everyone was energetic.

On the main road opposite the city gate, multiple obstacles had been built due to tactical preparations, and a total of four people-high earth walls were built in the middle of the main road.

After entering the city, Guo Shao ran behind the first wall, then put a wooden bench to see the situation on the other side of the city gate.

At this moment, an old woman stood on a dead wooden stick and slowly walked to the uninhabited open space in front of her.

Isn’t she the blind old woman next door? How did she come here?

Guo Shao suddenly felt very strange.

Because the open space in front is now basically closed on three sides.

The front is the most spacious road in the town, but it is blocked by the wall array; several walls rely on the houses on both sides to form a maze-like folding pattern, but there is a gap on the left.

The gaps between the houses on both sides are also blocked with earth, walls, wood, stone, etc., and the streets and alleys outside the main road are even more winding and complicated... Wuqi Town has made this happen in order to prevent large groups of people from spreading and facilitate street fighting.

How could a blind old woman bypass such a complicated road? Could it be that she had been guarding the city gate very early?

Ah!Ah... The old woman suddenly opened her mouth and screamed twice, her voice hoarse and her toothless mouth looked very flat.She was dressed in rags and dirty, and her gray hair was as messy as straw.

Kill the Khitan, kill the Khitan... The old woman shouted a few more vaguely.

An old man following Guo Shao stretched his neck and shouted: The city gate is about to break, the Khitan soldiers will rush in immediately and walk away quickly!At this time, Guo Shao said: Death is also a kind of relief for her.

boom!The city gate finally collapsed.

First, a group of chaotic civilians rushed in, and soon they were driven away by the cavalry and fled everywhere.

Amid the rapid and chaotic sound of horse hooves, a team of cavalry rushed straight into the city. When the first cavalry passed by the blind old woman with a bow, they waved the iron bones and made a hammer.

But the Khitan cavalry quickly stopped their horses and stopped attacking, because they were not facing the road they could sprint as they imagined, but walls.

These earthen walls are not high and can be climbed up with bare hands, but the cavalry cannot rush straight.

Guo Shao retracted his head, leaned against the earthen wall, silently listening to the movement of the horse's hooves, waiting for the other party's decision.In just a short while, he felt as if he had been waiting for a long time.

How will the Khitans react?

It is said that the nomads are very alert and run quickly together suspiciously.

When they noticed that there might be an ambush, they might immediately turn around and leave the dangerous place... If the Khitans retreated with difficulties, Wuqi Town would be like singing an empty city plan, and this would be a good thing.

Because Guo Shao is not sure that he can win this Khitan army now, it is better not to fight if he cannot win a battle.

But the Khitans may not necessarily run away when they see things.Their strong force may not be easily frightened; not to mention that the appearance of Wuqi Town does not look like a place where elite soldiers are stationed.

At the worst possible, the Khitans first retreated and then tried to find a breakthrough from other places.

If the battle starts from another direction, street fighting can also be carried out, but the terrain is not as good as the main gate for Guo Shao.

He leaned against the wall and thought for a moment, then took a long breath, and suddenly jumped onto the wooden bench.

As soon as his eyes opened, he saw the cavalry of Tiguduo, who had hammered the blind woman, looking forward.

Guo Shao immediately pulled the bowstring and bang!

The string sounded without hesitation, only a distance of twenty or thirty steps, and an arrow shot accurately and accurately on the guy's face.

The guy didn't have time to scream and fell directly from the horse's back.When other Khitan soldiers reacted and rushed to get the arrow, there was another string sound, and another person was shot and killed.

Without any warning, Guo Shao killed two people in a row and jumped straight off the wooden bench.

He hurriedly picked up the wooden shield and pushed it over his head, and about a dozen people behind the wall also learned to lift the wooden board.

Sure enough, after a moment, there was a crackling string sound, and dozens of arrows flew over the top of their heads, and some were nailed directly into the wall.

Outside the wall, Guo Shao didn't show his head, only heard the sound of horse hooves.After hearing the news, the Khitan soldiers did not attack, and then there was another rain of arrows.

A moment later, I suddenly saw several torches thrown on the roof, and a house was a thatched house, and a fire immediately ignited.

Guo Shao moved the round stool a little, climbed up and showed his head carefully, and saw that the Khitan infantry had followed and reached the city gate.

A general riding a horse was pointing at the drawing and shouting loudly.

Guo Shao pulled an arrow and put it on the bowstring without saying a word. Suddenly he stood up, pulled the bow, and shot the arrow, and did it in one go without stopping, slap!

The guy who was gesturing was dismissed.

Guo Shao immediately retreated after ejaculation.

Now the outside immediately exploded, and all kinds of shouts and screams that were incomprehensible were filled with an uproar. Then many footsteps were heard, and the infantry should have come up.

When Guo Shao heard the movement, he waved his hand and shouted in a deep voice: Let's go.So he ran away with the people around him.

They did not stop, skillfully following the wall for a while, pushing open a door and entering.

The others closed the door and guarded the door, and Guo Shao climbed straight up the wooden staircase.

He gently pushed open a small window in a messy room. The sight of this location was excellent, and the road in the middle was very long and within a hundred steps.

The bow in his hand was not strong enough, but within fifty steps he was very confident to hit the target.

Looking down from the window, a large group of Khitan infantry rushed into the earthen wall alley, and some were impatient to climb over the wall.The best one is to climb over the wall. Once you climb up the wall, your whole body will be exposed to the range.

Bang... Bang... The sound of the bowstrings flexing the air is very rhythmic!The arrows are shot without any slightest, and the armor is useless. Guo Shao is so close that he shoots his face and neck, not to mention that many infantrymen are not fully equipped with armor.

But after a few shots, the target was exposed. The Khitan archers immediately fought back. Their archery skills were relatively accurate, and arrows kept flying in from the small window.

But this cannot solve Guo Shao.

He showed his head and took a look, immediately dodged, and then shot arrows at the window, leaving a very short stay.

Bows and arrows are not firearms, they are difficult to hit fast moving targets, and it is not bad to have only one small window.

After a while, the rocket wrapped in an oil cloth greeted him and the roof caught fire.

Guo Shao fired another arrow and saw several Khitan soldiers running towards the door below. He hurriedly ran down the stairs and shouted to the old man holding the gongs and drums: Beat the gong, beat hard!

Bang bang bang bang... A harsh gong sound comparable to noise.

Guo Shao tied the bow to his back, pulled out the obstacle knife and shouted: Kill!Lead the crowd to rush out of the door.

A thin wall diagonally opposite suddenly collapsed, and the lower half of the wall was deliberately repaired very thin, and it could collapse with just one kick.

Yang Biao was immediately in the lead, holding a long iron knife in his hand and rushed out like a tiger going down the mountain, immediately blocking the opening of the wall.

Just next to Guo Shao’s out, a wall collapsed!

Luo Mengzi, a big head, held a wooden shield in one hand and an iron rod in the other. He recklessly used the wooden shield to open the way and squeezed it up, swung the iron rod and beat it.

Guo Shao carried the knife and rushed forward with the people in the house.

For a moment, most of the Khitan infantry were blocked in the wall formation on both sides and beaten up wildly at both ends.

Such a group fight is neither mobile nor unfolded, and it is like fighting on the streets and alleys.

The Khitan soldiers in the middle tried to climb over the wall, and the wall formation was in chaos.

Luo Mengzi used to use copper hammers, but his weapons seemed to be lost. He used solid iron sticks to make do with them, and he was very fierce for a while.

The stick is not as sharp as the copper hammer, but it still makes people cry when they beat the stick.

Guo Shao likes to cooperate with such a desperate general, so he can fight to the front and help make up for the leaks and break the gaps by himself... As the saying goes, you go first.

Hold!Luo Mengzi cursed and hit him with a stick, and hit a Khitan soldier with a clang, making the black-faced and big-mouthed Khitan look ugly and fainted.

At this moment, a Khitan soldier behind him suddenly stabbed up with a spear, holding a spear, Luo Mengzi's abdomen. Luo Mengzi didn't notice it. Even if he was penetrated with a layer of armor, he would be stabbed directly into his intestines if he was stabbed by melee force?

When his companions needed him the most, Guo Shao quickly looked and grabbed the spear step by step. The spear was very powerful under the inertia of the other party's body. Guo Shao couldn't help but thrust the spearhead into his chest. With a tingling sound, his chest felt the depression of the plate armor.

The Khitan soldiers grabbed the spear with both hands and stabbed a lot of gap in front of them. Without saying a word, Guo Shao stepped forward and waved his knife to slash his face. The sound of metal collision between the blade and the helmet, the sound of flesh and blood ripping... sprayed Guo Shao's face and chest blood.

The scream seemed to be heard in my ears, and it was a sound that broke my lungs.

...The fierce generals on both sides rushed forward, unstoppable, and the Khitan army fell into a big fall in this small corner.

A bloody road was killed in the alley. People were stepping on the corpse and gradually pushing forward. The walls were covered with blood, the smell of fishy smell in the air and the wind was miserable.

In the outermost alley, some Khitan soldiers saw that the situation was not good and climbed over the wall to escape, but most of the people blocked inside were killed and injured.

The remaining Khitan Army retreated to the city gate, and it was like a frightened bird.

Screams came from the alley, and the Khitan wounded soldiers inside were being knives on the spot.

There is obviously no such thing as captive in such a war, and it is just a knife.

The violent and crazy fight seemed to have stopped in an instant. The Khitans were heard from afar. The sound of gasping and coughing in the alley here kept coming, and people were tired.

Guo Shao sat against the wall for a while, feeling his arms sore and his right hand was trembling.

He shook his hand a few times, reached out to wipe off the sticky blood from his palm back and forth on the ground.

The sound of horse hooves and footsteps from afar came from outside, and the soldiers in the town were obviously unable to pursue the victory.

After a long time, the soldiers walked out of the wall formation and looked around. There was no enemy soldiers in the direction of the city gate.

The fires in the houses on both sides were pouring into the sky, and almost all the houses that were lit were burned.

There were talkers in the crowd, some were talking, some were asking for help, and some were calling on their companions to save people.

At this moment, Guo Shao suddenly saw blood-stained Guo Shao walk out.The surroundings suddenly became much quieter. The people who had relaxed and crowded together made way for Guo Shao to walk through the middle.

People's faces suddenly filled with awe, and their eyes unconsciously gathered on him, General Guo!Guo Jun envoy...

Guo Shao didn't say anything, but just nodded tiredly in response.
