"Marshal!" Huo Xin stepped forward, "Don't pay attention to such despicable villains as Marshal, just burn the clothes, why take it seriously!" Huo Xin persuaded.
Zhou Heng made it clear that he wanted to make Zhu Houde look bad, and they didn't need to take this matter to heart.
"No, keep it for me, and I will definitely return it to Zhou Heng in the future."
Zhu Houde said weakly, his body that had just recovered was crushed again because of Zhou Heng's gift.
"good."
Huo Xin nodded.
"Marshal, rest!"
Seeing Zhu Houde like this, Huo Xin might not be able to fight anymore, so he should stay here to rest, and leave the rest to them.
"All right."
Zhu Houde sighed, Zhu Houde didn't expect Zhou Heng to do such a thing with him, it's a shame, a shame really
"Report, it's not good!"
Huo Xin and others were about to come out of Zhu Houde's mansion, and one of them ran towards them quickly, yelling that it was not good.
"Keep your voice down."
Huo Xin stopped the person in front of him and asked him to keep his voice down. Zhu Houde has just rested now, so there is no need to bother Zhu Houde again.
"yes."
The soldier also realized that he might have gone too far.
"What the hell is it?" Ji Ming stepped forward and asked, what happened to make the person in front of him so nervous.
"The Hundred Wars Army has attacked the city, and they are filling the moat at this time!"
The visitor replied.
"What?"
Huo Xin, Ji Ming and the others were stunned for a moment when they heard what the soldiers in front of them said. They filled up the moat. What are they trying to do? Do they want to fill up the moat?
"They're filling in the moat, and they still have a big siege ladder."
The soldier replied that he could only describe that the siege ladder was huge with open arms, but he couldn't tell what it looked like, anyway it looked weird.
"Walk."
Huo Xin sensed that something was wrong, and immediately brought Ji Ming and others to the city wall.
Sure enough, the Baizhan army below was filling up the moat. Due to the lack of water, the moat had basically dried up, and the bottom of the river appeared.
The moat is a moat dug by hand, about three feet wide and less than one foot deep.
After it dries up, it looks like a huge tiankeng, which prevented the Baizhan army from attacking the city, but this is just a person who looks like a tiankeng.
Things that are three feet wide and one foot deep are not enough to see in front of tens of thousands of people.
Below, the Baizhan army was carrying cloth bags and throwing them into the moat one by one. Some of the cloth bags had been cracked when they hit the ground, and there were some gravel and soil inside.
"According to their speed, it can be filled in less than a quarter of an hour."
Ji Ming said.
It may take several years for one or two people to fill the moat, but tens of thousands of people, each carrying a cloth bag, can fill it up.
"yes."
Huo Xin looked down and began to look dignified.
It is only a matter of time for the Hundred Wars Army to fill the moat
"Hurry up!"
"Hurry up, brothers, let's try to fill up the moat as soon as possible." Hou Wei also rushed into the crowd with a cloth bag on his shoulders, shouting and working at the same time.
They were worrying about how to cross the dry moat, and they all felt that the moat was a natural moat for them, but Zhou Heng had already figured out a way.
Zhou Heng asked Zhen Feng and Li Xingba to buy a large number of cloth bags, fill them with gravel and soil, and use these things to fill the moat.
Very fast.
In just a few minutes, half of the moat was filled.
They only need to fill in a two-foot-wide road on the moat.
"Your Highness, your method is good!"
Lu Yue looked at the people coming and going looking at the cloth bag in front of him and said, they really didn't expect Zhou Heng to come up with such a method.
"Yes, Your Highness asked me to go to Macheng to ask for a cloth bag. I was still curious at the time, but I didn't expect it to be used here." Zhen Feng also said with admiration.
"It's just some small tricks."
Zhou Heng waved his hand and said
"General, we can't just watch them not fill up the moat. Once the moat is filled up, the Hundred Wars Army will kill them!" Ji Ming said nervously.
This method of filling the hole with sandbags was an eye-opener for them. They really didn't expect Zhou Heng to come up with such a way to fill up the moat.
"Shoot an arrow to block it!"
Huo Xin told everyone that the moat was within their attack range, and as long as they shot arrows, they would be able to block it, and what Huo Xin was worried about was not Zhou Heng and the Baizhan Army filling up the moat and killing them.
What really shocked Huo Xin was the so-called siege ladder. The siege ladder in front of him was not a simple ladder. The original siege ladder was placed obliquely on the city wall, and the soldiers climbed up.
But the siege ladder in front of him looks like a huge monster, and it is more like a moving wooden building.
If this is a siege ladder, the defenders will probably suffer, because they cannot attack the enemy, and this siege ladder will firmly protect the enemy.
"Shield Soldiers!"
Seeing the bow and arrow on the city wall, Lu Yue immediately ordered the shield soldiers to step forward to protect the soldiers carrying the sandbags.
"Give me cover with archers and catapults."
Zhou Heng ordered someone to bring up the catapult. The catapult improved by Zhou Heng was as accurate as the catapult used in Luliang City.
"put."
Both sides were almost in unison, shooting bows and arrows from the city wall, and the catapult also threw stones towards the tower.
"boom¡ª¡ª"
Only at that moment, the flying stone fell, smashing the archers on the city wall to this side, and fled in all directions.
The intensive attack of the catapults did not give Huo Xin, Ji Ming and the others any chance at all.
"this?"
Huo Xin was dumbfounded, he didn't expect the catapult to become so accurate.
Zhou Heng prepared thirty catapults, and the flying stones were thrown out, covering the entire city wall in an instant, suppressing Huo Xin and others to death.
"The general doesn't wait for me, why don't you lead your troops away at this time?"
Ji Ming looked at Huo Xin and said.
Now that Zhou Heng brought the Baizhan Army to kill, he must have no time to take care of other things. Wouldn't it be a good thing for Huo Xin to lead the troops upstream to retake the water source at this time.
"But here?"
Huo Xin was a little hesitant, he was still hesitating, even though Zhu Houde had said it, Huo Xin was still hesitating.
The Bai Zhan Army is about to attack, so it might be inappropriate for him to leave at this time.
"Don't worry, general, we will definitely wait for you to come." Ji Ming said, and Ji Ming felt that there is no better opportunity than now.
If they wanted to restrain Zhou Heng, they had to go out of the city, which meant danger. At this time, Zhou Heng came to attack the city, and they just took advantage of this opportunity to restrain Zhou Heng and give Huo Xin a chance to regain the water source.
"General, don't hesitate any longer at this time."
Ji Ming said.
"I"
"There is no hesitation, I am here." A voice came from behind, and Huo Xin and Ji Ming saw Zhu Houde wearing armor, and they came down to the top of the tower with the support of the two.
"The marshal is in danger here, so go down!"
Huo Xin asked Zhu Houde to go down, not knowing when the flying stones from the catapult would hit him again. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
