Chapter 56 Arrow Book

Early the next morning, people from the Taiping Sect began to urge people to get up. Chen Mo hid the sunspots and then came out with everyone. He had a plan in mind, so Chen Mo was particularly active today.

But it was different from the previous siege. This time, Zhou Fang, the commander-in-chief of Quzhou, sent out some Taiping soldiers to separate the refugees. There was no subdivision. Anyway, there were dozens or hundreds of people in each group, consisting of ten or

Five Taiping Army officers were among them, responsible for commanding these refugees.

Chen Mo, who was inside, didn't notice any changes, but standing at the top of Quyang City, he could see that today's Taiping Religion army was different from before. Although the array was still a bit chaotic, at least it looked a bit like that.

.

"I don't think there are people in the Taiping Religion who know how to run the army!" Zang Hong looked at the changes in the Taiping Army and was not too surprised.

Zhang Chao nodded and said: "We also built a long ladder to come out. I am afraid that today's battle will not be as easy as the previous day."

This city defense is not a confrontation between two armies. It is useless if the opponent's formation is good. The real threat to the defenders is the long ladder. Although it is not a ladder and can be easily pushed out, these Taiping Sect people have the ability to push out easily.

After using some means of attacking the city, if these people really rush to the city, there is still a threat. There are only a few hundred people in this city. Once it enters the war of attrition stage, even if one person can replace ten of the other, they cannot afford it.

"Let people guard the four sides with their spears. Watch them build up long ladders, and then use their long spears to knock them down." Zang Hong looked at the opponent's formation and agreed with Zhang Chao's words. With so many long ladders, they really made it difficult for them to build up the ladders.

It was a tough battle on the city wall.

"There are only more than 300 county guards here, how can there be any?" Zhang Chao said helplessly.

"Previously, we ordered the county lieutenants in the city to recruit the people and ask them to come up to assist." Zang Hong frowned.

"These people still need to maintain order in the city. If we send them here, what should we do if someone causes chaos in the city?" Zhang Chao said with some concern.

"That's not a good idea. We will annihilate all the remaining remnants in the city!" Zang Hong supported the female wall and said with a loud smile: "Last time we checked the Taiping cultists in the city, we captured many. Even if there are some oversights, it will not be a big deal!"

In the end, Zhang Chao was still worried about the stability of the city, so he did not call in all the people, but only half of them. He sent Changge to be responsible for pushing down the ladders erected on the city walls.

This thing is not a ladder. Not only does it have barbs, but it also has a specially fixed base at the bottom. It is difficult to push. An ordinary ladder can be pushed out with just one push. This is why even in the face of tens of thousands of Taiping Sect troops,

Zang Hong and Zhang Chao were still chatting and laughing on the enemy tower. The lack of siege equipment meant that no matter how many people there were, they couldn't climb up. Even if there were ladders now, the points to climb up the city would be numerous and easy to deal with.

What's more, although I just praised the other party for knowing how to run an army, running an army and fighting a war are two different things. Needless to say, there is a gap in equipment. Most of the people are like refugees and are not threatening at all.

The Taiping Army is obviously serious today. A large number of Taiping Religion elites are mixed in the crowd to take charge of command. At least it will not be like before when people just shoot a wave of arrows and the entire army formation is in chaos. Under the influence of these Taiping Religion elites,

Under the command, ladders were carried one by one and rushed toward the city wall. Before they reached the city wall, the opponent's arrow clusters had already fallen.

"Don't mess around. Those who retreat will be killed on the spot!" A Taiping Religion elite waved his sword and killed those who wanted to retreat. At the same time, he screamed: "Come on!"

Despite the large number of refugees, most of them are cowardly people. Faced with the brutality of these Taiping elites, they have no idea of ​​resistance and can only continue to move forward under their urging.

Chen Mo had killed people before, and he had a lot of fierceness in his bones. He was not intimidated. However, if he turned around and ran away at this time, he would definitely be seeking death. He was afraid that he would not be able to defeat any of the elites of the Taiping Sect, and he was not prepared to run away.

The short bow was already in his hand, and the wooden arrow wrapped with the blood book was already on the string. However, at this moment, he was still nearly a hundred steps away from the city wall. At this distance, Chen Mo could not shoot his wooden arrow to the city wall. He could only

Keep your head down as much as possible and follow the crowd towards the city wall.

Phew~

The attack in the direction of the city wall was obviously much stronger. Cold arrows fell from the sky with powerful Guan Xing. A man beside Chen Mo was pierced by an arrow through the head without any warning. After standing still for a moment,

He fell straight down.

Chen Mo's heart beat hard. There was no pattern to the clusters of arrows falling from the sky. He had the ability to predict luck. He could see who had good luck. But how lucky ordinary people can be is usually unknown.

It's the moment the opponent's arrow shoots out that a person's luck will change. This is very difficult to avoid.

At this time, Chen Mo could only rely on his relatively thin body to keep his body as low as possible, so that the people around him could become his natural shield and not easily attacked by arrow clusters. The rest was up to his fate.

However, these people who were driven to the front line were obviously not the targets of the city's defenders. The ones who really received the most attention were the archers in the rear who were responsible for helping to suppress the city's defenders. There were not many of them, and the defenders were condescending, and their bows and arrows

The range is longer.

Chen Mo mingled with the crowd and carefully looked at the defenders at the top of the city. He had never seen how a real general dressed, but judging from the other's clothes, he was different from the others, so he thought his identity would not be too bad. Chen Mo was very surprised.

I quickly spotted a few. At this time, there were only about thirty steps left from the city wall. The people in the front row had already begun to put up ladders outside the moat and climb up.

He silently estimated the distance in his mind. In order to ensure that his blood letter could be seen by Quyang's senior officials, he planned to shoot one for everyone nearby.

When he reached about twenty steps, Chen Mo suddenly opened his bow and nocked an arrow, and a wooden arrow flew out lightly. The slight scream did not attract anyone's attention in this noisy battlefield.

On the top of the city, the county lieutenant was directing the battle, but he saw a wooden arrow running towards him. Under the stunned gaze of the county lieutenant, it landed on the breastplate on his chest and bounced out.

What?

The county lieutenant touched his breast mirror in a daze.

Chen Mo was a little regretful, but it was still too far away. If he were closer, he should be able to shoot the silver helmet on his head.

another!

This time Chen Mo set his target on a scribe. Although he was a scribe, he was also wearing leather armor. Chen Mo followed the crowd a few steps forward and shot an arrow again. This time, he placed the arrow cluster in the gap between the opponent's leather armor.

Among them, no one was shot down.
