Chapter 62 Xiaoguo Shubao
Chapter 62 Uncle Xiaoguo
"Hey, hey, hey!"
With the sound of trumpets, when light siege equipment such as cloud ladders had already arrived at the city, the second batch of rushing cars, Yunlou, was dispatched again.
In a big battle in the morning, dozens of large siege equipment were basically destroyed by the Goguryeo defending the city. However, for the Sui army, destroying a batch of siege equipment was nothing. For today's war, they had been preparing for a month, and had not taken out large siege equipment to siege the city before, just to concentrate the number.
After the infantry formation, all the components of various large siege equipment have been transported. As long as they are assembled one by one in front of the formation, they will be large-scale equipment. These mountain-like components consumed at a speed of consumption in the morning, which is enough to support a battle of several days.
Next to the continuous advancement of the rushing car, Shubao and his comrades in the same team were pushing the rushing car with all their might. Although they had been fighting for a whole morning, this was nothing for these rushing fruits. Their rushing fruits were originally elite soldiers, and they had only fought for a morning of siege. They still had strength, but they had just rested for a while. After eating and drinking, they were even more physically energetic.
In the morning, Shubao and his team rushed up with the strong idea of killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions. But in the end they were very unlucky. When the rushing car was only a few feet away from the city wall, the wheels were destroyed by the big rocks smashed from the city wall. As a result, in the morning, they could only stand on the rushing car with arrows and shoot against the enemy at the city wall. Although they also shot down many defenders, they obviously didn't feel very satisfied. No matter how many they killed, they wouldn't be able to explain it clearly. They were thinking of rushing to the city wall, and they all fantasized about becoming Shen Guang's second.
Shu Bao was only nineteen years old, but he was very prestigious in this team at this time. Originally, Shen Guang was the mate commander and he was the deputy mate commander. After Shen Guang picked him up, the gang regarded him as the mate commander. However, although he was the mate commander, the mate commander was not of the grade. Whenever Shu Bao thought of his childhood, he thought about his current family decline, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Now the Great Sui Dynasty is fighting eastward and westward, Goguryeo is the last barbarian country that refuses to surrender.
If he wants to revive his family business, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, of course he knows that military merit is the fastest. Now Liaodong is going to be defeated. If he can't make meritorious contributions, he might not have many opportunities in the future.
Thinking of this, Shubao said loudly, "Everyone is paying attention to the Liao dogs in the city, but don't let those who are tens of millions of dollars smash the wheels. Then, they go to the top of the city one by one, and we will shoot arrows to cover them below. What's the matter? You are willing, but I don't want it. A man should go to the top of the city to fight with real guns. If we are lucky, kill a master of the lord, and the like will make meritorious contributions. I heard that the master of this city is the younger brother of the Liao king. The last time the navy came to protect the general was in his hands. If we are lucky and took him down, not to mention being a Bo and a Hou like Chen Pojun, at least he can be a fifth-rank like Lao Shen."
The people on the side hurriedly agreed, "Only those who have no eggs are willing to huddle under the city. We are seeking wealth and wealth. If we want to get promoted and make money, we have to go to the top of the city. Brothers are all optimistic and protect the rushing car. We will rely on him to get promoted and make money." In addition to Shubao's group, this rushing car also has four groups of soldiers, but they just happened to form a team.
The team was a bearded man in his forties, and he smiled and said, "A few little bastards are quite big. They are not afraid of choking to death. Do you think it is so easy to get promoted and get rich. I have been in the army for twenty years, and I am only a team of masters. As you said, I must be a third-rank general now."
Shubao pushed the car and said with a smile, "That's it, you didn't encounter a good opportunity. Now it's a good opportunity. Your Majesty is watching the battle in person. Last time I crossed the Liaohe River, Your Majesty saw General Chen Pojun perform outstandingly while watching the battle, so he made him a special choice as General Yingyang Lang. And last time, wasn't Chen Guang promoted him to be a fifth-rank general who was brave when watching the battle. If Your Majesty hadn't seen it, how could they have been able to improve so high in one go? Now such an opportunity has come again. As long as we perform outstandingly, are you still afraid that Your Majesty will not reward him? Maybe you will become a fifth-rank general in a blink of an eye, and you can't forget us at that time."
The team was so happy that Shu Bao said that he was laughing, "You Qin Qiong, you are really good at speaking, so I will lend you auspicious words. If I am really promoted and made a fortune, I will never forget you. Everyone will show me a good performance later. Remember to capture the city heads and cut off more Liao Gou's heads. This level of merit is very important." The military merits of the generals depend on what role they played in the war, such as some successfully covering the retreat of the troops or successfully blocking the enemy, so the military merits of the generals are comprehensive comments.
But for the big-headed soldiers, cutting off the enemy's head and rewarding merit is the easiest and most practical. Whoever cuts more heads in wartime will definitely make great contributions.
Another Xiaoguo also hurriedly said, "I think the Liaodogs can't hold on anymore. When we pushed the cart all the way in the morning, there were bows and arrows and stone bullets. Now we are almost at the city, and the defenders have just shot a few arrows sparsely. I think we should not use this rushing car to shoot their female walls for a while. After we arrived at the city, we rushed up to the city with a knife along the thick pole of the rushing cart. This was what the team of people under Lord Zhang did in the morning. At that time, they almost occupied a piece of the city. We are not the soldiers of the palace, but we are the Xiaoguo of the Zuobei Mansion. It is impossible for us to be worse than them. As long as we occupy a piece of the city, the ones behind us will follow us. Such a great contribution, we will lose our rewards in terms of merit."
The team leader Wang Daniu lit up his eyes and patted Xiaoguo's shoulder heavily, "Good boy, you are the most cunning in daily life, you are lazy in daily life. I didn't expect that you can also play a role when you are in the key. This is a good thing. Xiaoguo is a top-notch man, and he usually receives more salary than those soldiers in the government. We naturally have to show off our skills when we are in the key. So we decided, and after a while, we took the opportunity, we followed me and rushed to the top of the city. If anyone has no eggs, he will stay to cover it with a bow and arrow under the city."
As soon as Wang Daniu was excited, all the teams immediately patted their chests and said that they would go to the city and were not willing to stay. These brave men were all brave men in the army. At this time, facing such an opportunity to make contributions, who would be willing to let go?
With excitement, this team of fierce soldiers pushed the rushing car desperately, constantly avoiding the arrows shot from the city along the way. Although there were many casualties of infantry attacking along the way, fortunately, although their team of people slowed down because they wanted to push the rushing car. However, with the huge rushing car blocking, their team of people stepped through the bodies of their comrades, but no one was injured or killed.
When this group of people arrived at the city, the other soldiers were eager to make contributions like them. They all sacrificed their lives to climb the cloud ladder and rushed forward and backward under the city wall. They ignored the comrades around them who kept falling from the cloud ladder, and none of them were timid and afraid.
The drums were rumbling and the horns were roaring. In front of the Sui army, all the Sui army bands lined up in a row, and hundreds of cowhide drums made exciting sounds, which also covered up the endless screams and wails on the battlefield.
Rows of rushing cars, flying towers pushed under the city wall, and with arrows and stones, all the soldiers started to climb up with their shields. People kept getting arrows from above, but there were still soldiers who continued to climb up like ants.
Shubao's team also began to climb up the van, holding shields and holding feather arrows flying in the sky, crawling desperately, and rushed to the roof platform after a while. There was a group of people on it, but at this time there was less than half of them left. The rest were all holding wooden spears nearly two meters long and stabbing desperately towards the defenders on the city. These brave spearmen advanced and retreated in an orderly manner. Every time they stabbed out, they were retracted.
At this time, there were not many well-trained defenders at the head of Liaodong. Most of them were civil warriors who had only been training for more than a month during the siege. At this time, even these civil warriors were mostly people of old and young. Faced with these elite Sui army, people were constantly stabbed by spears and fell to the ground with blood.
Although the Sui army on the rushing car was well-trained, they were on the top platform of the rushing car dozens of feet high, and there was not much place for them to dodge. In addition to the team of shield soldiers in front of them who could block some arrows, they could only bear the various attacks of the famous Leisure people on the city. The Goguryeo people could not stab them at them, but when the Goguryeo catapult threw stones and rushed out, they could only be killed helplessly. Fortunately, as soon as the Goguryeo catapult was pulled up, it would basically not take long to be taken seriously by the Sui army's catapult. If there was no spoil, they would be smashed into pieces by the Sui army's catapult.
Qin Qiong and a team of fifty people climbed up and rushed out of the top floor. No one went to get the spear on the side, but took the horizontal knife into his mouth, threw down the shield, and began to climb up the wall opposite along the thick pole. Qin Qiong took the lead, and none of the team's Xiaoguo hesitated, followed closely behind Shubao.
