Chapter 474: When siege

Li Zitong slapped the table with a palm: "Send the order, I will meet this Liu Heita in person!"

"Master, no!"

"The king thinks twice!"

As soon as his subordinates heard his decision, they hurriedly dissuaded them.

Li Zitong snorted coldly: "Don't say anything more!"

"But the king, this Liu Heita is indeed..."

"Shut up!"

Li Zitong shouted angrily, "The battle is ahead, are you so ambitious and destroying your own might?

You are scared if you haven't called me!?"

The persuasive general whispered his lips a few times, and finally lowered his head.

"Hmph, I want to see what methods Liu Heita has!"

The next day, Liu Heita's army arrived thirty miles away from Huai'an City.

The King of Langya in Huai'an is also ready to deal with the upcoming war.

"Report! The scouts heard that Liu Heita's army had arrived five miles outside the city."

As soon as the news arrived, King Langya stood up from his position, regardless of the obstruction of his subordinates, and walked step by step towards the tall walls of Huaian City.

Standing on the city wall, the King of Langya from afar saw the red military flag representing the Sun and Moon Sect and the black army of Sun and Moon Sect.

The Sun and Moon Sect army stopped about one mile from the city gate.

Liu Heita took the telescope specially provided by the God Cult from his adjutant and put it in front of him. He saw the Langya King standing far behind the female wall (Yu Wall) at a glance.

He sneered and took off the glasses and handed them to the adjutant. The adjutant carefully put them away. Everyone knew that the glasses were considered a treasure, and could see things from a distance a hundred times. Now, only the generals and scouts who explored the road on the front line could use them in the army. There were only five glasses in a thousand people in a large army, and they were very precious.

Liu Heita shook his head at a young general on the side. The young general squeezed his legs and drove his horse out of the team. He was followed by a deputy general.

The two left the army about a hundred meters. The general between the Langya King took out a trumpet-shaped thing and put it beside his mouth, and then began to shout.

"Li Zitong, are you here?

Our general asked if you are here?"

The deputy general was not a person with the power of transmitting voices for thousands of miles. They stood a little far away, but Li Zitong on the city wall and the others heard him clearly.

"This is?"

Li Zitong was a little surprised. What was the one who took out of this pair of people, which actually had such a sound transmission effect.

A subordinate explained to him with a headache: "Previously, they used this object to scold our army in front of the battlefield every day. As soon as we asked someone to go out to catch them, they immediately ran away, slid like loaches."

This thing was specially exchanged from the system by Dongfangming. It is used to convey messages in the church and shout slogans. Now, it is also a good thing to use when scolding enemies on the battlefield. It not only saves effort but also achieves the effect. The generals in the army said it was good after using it.

The King of Langya looked at a general beside him. The general took a step forward, cleared his throat, and took a deep breath of Qiyun Dantian: "Bold thief! How can you call the name of the king directly!"

The adjutant holding the trumpet was not afraid at all. A month ago, he used this thing as a formation to curse the generals of the Langya King without changing their expressions. Now he is just doing the previous thing again and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Anyway, no one on Li Zitong's side has the kind of sharpshooter who can shoot him from such a distance.

After the adjutant held a loudspeaker and shook his tongue to greet all the generals on the city wall, he entered the theme with an angry scolding on the wall opposite: "I advise you to open the door and surrender!"

"Pooh!"

A general on the wall spat: "You were as timid as mice before, and you used the tricks that were like flies, but now you dare to say such big words. It's really a big laugh!"

A month ago, Liu Heita and other armies adopted guerrilla defense tactics in accordance with Dongfang Ming's instructions.

When the enemy entered, they retreated to the city to defend. When the enemy retreated, they came out to interfere, emitting hidden arrows, pretending to attack the city, and setting fires in the middle of the night, which made the coalition forces miserable.

After half a month, the Sun and Moon Cult no longer did the tricks before, but instead sent people to scold them every day, using the speaker on the adjutant's hand. Hearing the sound from afar, he found that the person had already run away when he approached. If he was squatting here, the people of the Sun and Moon Cult would change places to continue scolding.

After struggling for more than half a month, all coalition forces were very resentful, especially when they were angry that they sent troops to attack the cities controlled by the Sun and Moon Sect, but because they not only painted a layer of strange materials on the city wall, it made it difficult for siege materials such as cloud ladders to climb.

The people of the Sun and Moon Sect also dug up evil things such as traps and ditchs near the city walls, which is one of the reasons why the coalition forces won the advantage of the Sun and Moon Sect for a month and did not take any advantage from the Sun and Moon Sect.

"Try to make some dirty tricks! Mud legs are born but they can't get on the table!"

Li Zitong looked disdainful.

The generals on the side had a subtle expression, and some of them were born to grass-roots people.

"If you have the ability, please let someone come out to fight alone! What's the point of hiding on the city wall!"

The young general who followed the adjutant took advantage of the time when the adjutant was tired of drinking water when he spoke, took the trumpet and shouted to the city.

"Master! I wish to go out and meet him! Let this little bastard who has not even grown all the hairs know that it is amazing!"

A general leads the way.

As soon as he finished speaking, the people around King Langya became restless and were scolded for a month. They had not yet officially fought each other, and they could not hold back their anger.

Li Zitong raised his hand and signaled his subordinates to be at ease.

He narrowed his eyes and looked vigilantly at the darkened group of Sun and Moon Cult Eastern Route Army not far away, feeling increasingly uneasy.

Seeing that no one on the city wall answered his words, the young general curled his lips and returned the horn in his hand to the adjutant.

Cheng Yaojin, who was following Liu Heita on a horse, sneered: "This bullshit King Langya is very timid! He is also a group of soft boys under his command, not even a fight!"

Liu Heita's expression remained unchanged and made a gesture to the adjutant on the side.

Immediately afterwards, the Langya King and others on the city wall saw several catapults being launched from the Sun and Moon Cult army opposite.

The generals beside Li Zitong immediately advised him to leave the city wall. Li Zitong naturally knew what the situation was. Before leaving the city wall, he smiled contemptuously: "It's ridiculous that these catapults want to break through my Huaian City!"

According to normal historical development, the best catapult cart from the Warring States Period to the present should be the general cannon created by Li Mi after becoming Duke Wei. Unfortunately, Li Mi met Dongfang Ming, who traveled through time.

The general's cannon was naturally gone, but Dongfang Ming created a stronger thing. On the basis of strengthening the structure and stability of the catapult, he improved the projection distance and projection content of the catapult.

How enough is it to just throw stones?

After Liu Heita's back, the soldiers drove out the catapult cart and the giant crossbow.

After the flag bearer waved the flag to show off, the soldiers worked together to lift the wooden barrel more than one person to the loading part of the catapult.

After putting the wooden barrels in place, the general who was commanding the throwing stones gave the order, the soldiers guarding next to the throwing stones stuffed the torch into the wooden barrels, and immediately fired the pine barrels at Huai'an city walls.
