Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

Chapter 127 Siege

"Bang." After walking a short distance, I heard a loud noise coming from the left rear.

"They're moving so fast. The first wave of attack has begun. Hurry up, brother. While there's a lot of noise, catch up quickly. They've started running." Zhao Shi reminded everyone.

Now the main force of the Liao soldiers was attacking, and many of them had already climbed up the city wall. The situation seemed to be very unfavorable to the people on the city wall. The Liao soldiers below the city had already sent out battering rams and were about to approach the city gate.

I don't know when the throwing device was ready, and with the sound of "bang bang bang", huge stones were thrown towards the city wall.

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly favorable, the Liao soldiers pursued the enemy and launched another intensive attack.

Tian Xing'er and the others looked back and saw from afar that the city wall had been covered with people at some point, and the defenders on the wall seemed to have lost their resistance long ago, and everyone couldn't help but worry.

Judging from the current situation, even if they can win, they will have to escape as soon as possible because they cannot defeat the main force.

Tian Xing'er couldn't help but worry about the people of Wu County and blamed the county governor and the county magistrate for their incompetence.

Just when everyone was thinking this, suddenly the Liao soldiers on the tower were shot down by a rain of arrows from inside the city, and they fell headfirst like carrots, and some people fell directly from the tower. Then a more intensive rain of arrows with kerosene was shot at the tower, and the Liao soldiers outside the city were unable to support the people on the top, and those who were still climbing the wall were hit by the people falling from the tower and fell like watermelons.

The situation suddenly reversed. When Tian Xing'er and the others looked back at the city wall, it was already illuminated by a fire, although the sounds of siege from below had not stopped.

"Miss, the situation seems to have improved. The Liao soldiers on the city are trapped." At this time, the sky began to brighten, and there were fires on the city. Tian Da was good at martial arts and could see far, so he could see some of the situations on the city.

"Really?" When Tian Xing'er looked, she saw only a patch of stars and couldn't see clearly what was going on. "I can't see clearly."

"Yes, I can see that. I'm afraid there is an ambush on the city. I'm afraid the situation in this battle is about to turn around."

"That's good. Let's just follow the front without worrying. They have gone further and further away. Can you still see Zhao Shi and the others now?"

"You can also clearly see the tail of the team and know the approximate direction. Don't worry, miss, you won't get lost."

The situation in Wu County has reversed, and the situation there is not something Tian Xing'er and the others can worry about, so it would be in vain even if they worry about it.

Their primary goal now is not to lose sight of the people in front of them, but also not to let anyone discover them.

The command of Tian Zhenwei's team was handed over to Zhao Shi.

The Liao soldiers finally came out of the forest, and Zhao Shirang's entire team immediately accelerated to close the distance.

The village ahead is visible, and not far away are the fields where seedlings have been planted. As there had been no natural disasters last year, the government's granaries should still be full, and most people's homes should have enough grain stored until the autumn harvest.

"This position is good. Everyone, spread out and wait for my orders. Then shoot together. Don't let them leave the range." Zhao Shi gave the first order.

"Bang bang bang!" Just as the front of the team was about to enter the village, Zhao Shi shouted "Fire," and everyone fired.

Because the Liao soldiers were all gathered together, Tian Zhenwei and his men fired at them directly, and almost no one escaped. All the soldiers at the back of the Liao soldiers fell to the ground.

"Run forward and find cover." Realizing that those in the rear were shot, the centurion leading the team in the front immediately asked the remaining people to hide.

But there were only fields everywhere and nowhere to hide, so they could only keep rushing forward.

“Chase them, we can’t let them enter the village.” Seeing that they were about to run towards the village, Zhao Shi immediately ordered everyone to charge forward.

Tian Zhenwei took the lead and rushed to the front. His gun accuracy was the best here. After a few shots, a group of people fell to the ground. The team behind followed and assisted him. The power of the musket could not be resisted by ordinary armor.

On the one hand, the Liao soldiers had never seen muskets, and on the other hand, they were completely defeated by the sudden attack. So another wave of people fell to the ground, and the team of more than a hundred people was reduced to only twenty or thirty.

There were fewer people and it was not as easy to fight as before. They scattered in all directions, and Tian Zhenwei's team was also forced to disperse, but they still cooperated well. Some people were responsible for approaching the enemy, and some were responsible for aiming and shooting.

They drove the Liao soldiers together like ducks, and then shot them one by one, with everyone cooperating well.

By the time Tian Xing'er and his men caught up, all the Liao soldiers had been dealt with.

"Uncle Zhenwei, you guys are so powerful. There are hundreds of us, and you solved the problem so quickly." They had already caught up to her, and Tian Xing'er was too lazy to hide anymore.

"Xing'er girl, who asked you to follow me? Why are you so reckless?"

"Uncle Zhenwei, don't be angry. I am worried about you too. Besides, my position is not necessarily safe. The Liao soldiers may encounter us when they retreat after being defeated. Who knows?"

"You are the only one who has a lot of crooked ideas. Never mind. Now that you've followed me, what else can I say?" Seeing that the person has been dealt with, he no longer blames Tian Xing'er.

"Send two people who can talk to the village to inform the village chief, tell them to be careful and hide." Zhao Shi came over and greeted Tian Zhenwei.

"Okay, I'll let Tieqi go."

The rest of the people checked the scene, finished off the wound as Tian Xing'er had said, and found a place to start a fire and perform a cremation service for them.

"What should we do now?" Seeing that the work here had been completed, Tian Xing'er wanted to go to the main battlefield in front to join in the fun.

"Wait for news and see how the fighting is going on the main battlefield ahead." Zhao Shi flicked the dust off his body and found a place to sit down.

Seeing this, others followed suit.

Tian Xing'er had no choice but to wait.

At this time, the Liao soldiers in Wu County had been eliminated, and General Li Xiao led his soldiers to regain control.

The Liao soldiers below the city were already furious. So many people had died, but the city gates had not moved at all. The vanguard had almost been wiped out.

They were short of manpower this time, but they had to hold on in order to attract firepower for the team. They didn't want to attack the city, they just wanted to steal food.

"General, don't you think they are starting to stall for time?"

"How to say?"

"They were very aggressive at the beginning, but now it feels like they are not really putting in any effort. It seems their elite troops are still in the rear and have not moved."

"Well, County Magistrate Zhao's analysis makes sense, but they are just wishful thinking if they want to delay time."

"Then should our other team prepare to set off? I'm worried that if the fight goes on for too long, it will be hard to find them if some of them escape. Although the nearby residents have received the notice, many elderly people still haven't retreated to the city."

"Okay, don't worry, Magistrate Zhao, I won't let them hurt the people."

General Li then had someone give a secret signal on the top of the city wall. Soon a team of cavalry rushed out from the right side of the Liao soldiers. They had been waiting for them, and now they were finally sent into the field.

This team is one of the elite troops under General Li Xiao, and their purpose is to prevent the Liao soldiers from having a chance to escape.

Then the city gate was opened, and General Li Xiao led his troops out of the city gate.

The leader of the Liao soldiers this time was just an ordinary captain. They thought it was just a small county town without any powerful generals, so taking it would not be a big problem, not to mention that their main goal was just to encircle the enemy.

But now the other party seemed to be well prepared and was not a pushover. They had been set up from the beginning, but they could only bite the bullet and hold on. Now that the people in the city had come out to fight, they obviously had no chance of winning. They could only give up the mission and leave as soon as possible.

"Retreat, retreat quickly." The centurion made a prompt decision and ordered the entire army to retreat.

But how could General Li Xiao let them do as they wish? They came here to gain military merit. These heads were all military merit. How could he let them get away?

"Stop them, and send some people to attack from the sides. Don't let them get away."

"Yes, General." General Li Xiao's deputy general, Lu Liang, immediately led his men to encircle the Liao soldiers from the side.

The Liao soldiers were now surrounded, and the people on both sides were eliminated one by one. The team could only run in one direction. General Li Xiao waved his whip, accelerated to catch up with the Liao soldiers, and prepared to eliminate the leader directly.

Unfortunately, the opponent fled at the very beginning, and there were soldiers protecting him from behind. General Li could only be forced to resist, while the opponent fled farther and farther.

With a "bang" of a gunshot, the Liao army's captain fell to the ground.
