Chapter 997

"Children, follow me, quick!"

"Drive!"

Zhang Liao called out, galloped his horse, and five thousand Bingzhou cavalry followed Zhang Liao and launched a rapid march. Although cavalry are riding horses, they will also pity horsepower when marching, because the horses are their good companions. Only when there is an emergency, they will urge the horses at all costs.

...

"ha ha, shoot the arrow!"

Suo Nu yelled in Xianbei language. The ten thousand Xianbei cavalry behind them were also shouting in a strange voice, whistling past outside the city of Qiangyin. Each of them had a riding bow, but it was not made of iron. These Xianbei people were not so rich now. It was not until the Xianbei people established the Northern Wei Dynasty 200 years later that there would be powerful cavalry sweeping the north and south of the Yellow River.

The Xianbei people grew up on horseback. Naturally, everyone was proficient in riding and shooting. At the command of Suo Nu, these ten thousand people set their bows and arrows at the head of Qiangyin city.

"Keep your head down, hide behind the wall, and raise your shield!"

Qiangyin County captain loudly ordered that hundreds of county soldiers and nearly a thousand of temporarily recruited minzhuang hid behind the women's wall and raised their shields to protect themselves.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Tens of thousands of arrows shot from outside the city, all falling on the city's head, splashing on the shield like raindrops, constantly making a sound of "Dudu", which was mixed with some screams. It was obvious that someone was injured by the arrows.

County captain low roar way: "the arrow covers the wound, first do not pull out, hold back!"

There is a scar on his face. He is obviously a veteran of war. Otherwise, he will not be a county captain.

"County officer, can we hold on to it?"

A recruit, trembling at his shield, asked. The county officer turned his head and saw that he was not old, not yet twenty years old, and his pupils showed a sincere fear.

"Don't worry, although the number of enemy troops is large, they are only cavalry. Have you ever seen cavalry attack a city?"

The county captain comforted him: "as long as we guard against the enemy and close the city gate, the enemy will not be able to enter. After a few days, the reinforcements from Wen Hou and Xu Zhengbei will arrive, and then they will be safe. "

"No, county officer! They have a rush! "

"What?"

The county captain's face suddenly changed. He raised his head against his shield and looked around. Suddenly, the soldiers of the petty slaves were separated from each other, and a rush car was pushed out. Although the shape of the chongche was a little rough, it was indeed a chongche.

"Broken..." the county captain's forehead cold sweat straight down, Qiangyin city is just a small county, weak defense capacity, even if it is a rush car, it is also very dangerous. Besides, there are tens of thousands of fresh and humble cavalry outside the city, so it is almost impossible to risk destroying this vehicle.

"Run up, hit!"

Hundreds of Xianbei people gathered in front of the car slowly. The rickety rush car has been aimed at the gate of Qiangyin city.

"Fire the arrow, pour the oil! In any case, we must destroy this rush car, otherwise the city of Qiangyin will be finished, and the people in the city will become slaves of Xianbei people! " Exclaimed the county captain.

Both the soldiers and the people of the Han Dynasty knew how powerful it was to rush to the chariot, so they did not care to avoid the rain of arrows. They got up in a hurry and wanted to pour the oil under the city.

"Archery!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

"Ah

However, thousands of Xianbei cavalry have already been prepared. They were cavalry when they attacked, and now they can be used as archers. It's really a panacea. Xianbei cavalry's riding and shooting skills are extremely excellent. Under the rain of their arrows, the Han soldiers and minzhuang on the top of the city just appeared, and they were shot down a large area immediately, and screamed one after another.

Under the intense fire attack of Xianbei cavalry, the soldiers of Han Dynasty couldn't hold on and were hit by arrows one after another. One of them was even more unfortunate. He was hit by more than ten arrows by the concentrated fire, and his leather armour was all riddled with holes. The whole man was pushed back by the power of the arrow.

"Bump!"

Boom!

The car rushed forward fiercely and hit the gate of Qiangyin heavily. It made a dull noise. The weak gate of Qiangyin city was hit so hard that it made a creaking sound.

Zou Nu was overjoyed: "good, hit again!"

Bang!

Under the impact of the car several times in a row, cracks have begun to appear on the gate. I'm afraid it will be knocked open in half a quarter of an hour.

"Get down, block the gate with something, quick!"

At the command of the county magistrate, hundreds of Han soldiers and minzhuang rolled down in a hurry, picked up stones and wood and blocked them behind the city gate. At the same time, they rushed up with their own bodies.

Bang!

The rush car slammed into the city gate again. The Han soldiers and min Zhuang who stood up to the gate felt a shock and felt very uncomfortable.

"Keep hitting!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Under the constant impact of rush cars, the city gate is already crumbling. Some Han soldiers who protect the gate can't help spitting blood. It seems that it's only a matter of time before the gate of Qiangyin is knocked open.

The county captain looked gloomy, pulled out the ring head sword in his waist, and yelled: "all hold on to the weapons, go down to the tower, and fight with the Xianbei people!"Qiangyin city is just a small city. Most of its military forces are temporarily recruited people without much training. They have an instinctive fear in the face of war, but at the moment, their faces are resolute.

"Brothers, if the Xianbei people break through the city gate, all the people in the city will be finished, and they will become their slaves." "Maybe we can't be the opponents of these Xianbei people, but we can't do nothing, or our parents will be ruined..."

"county captain, stop talking! Let's go down and fight with these Xianbei people

"That's right. Fight them!"

"We can die, but our parents, wives and children can't be their slaves."

"Well, I'm a man indeed The county captain said in a high voice: "the Marquis Zhuang once said that those who offend me and strong Han will be punished even if they are far away. In the future, the general will avenge us. Kill

"Kill!"

Boom!

In the impact of the car, the city gate was finally knocked open, Zou Nu grinned: "children, kill in! Take all their treasures and turn them into our slaves

"Kill!"

When the gate of the city was knocked open, Xianbei cavalry took advantage of the situation to enter the city, while the Han soldiers stationed in the Chengmen cave fought with the Xianbei cavalry.

"Thorn!"

Pooh!

The Spearman thrust himself forward and sent the blade into the body of the Xianbei cavalry. The man immediately screamed and fell off his horse. However, before the Spearman of the Han army could be happy, a sharp saber fell down on his head, slashed obliquely from his shoulder to his ribs, and the Spearman's face solidified and fell to the ground.

Xianbei cavalry had a strong impact and a large number of people. However, more than a thousand Han troops gathered at the Chengmen cave, relying on the terrain to attack the enemy tenaciously, and temporarily blocked the Xianbei people here.
