Chapter 463

Scary episodes

Dan Gui looked at Li Yun, then looked at Fan Shoutu's troops who were fleeing in a panic, and asked in a low voice: "Master, why don't you give them another chance?"

Li Yun shook his head and said angrily: "Give them a chance, who will give us a chance?! Last time I gave them a chance, but they dared to neglect their duties and let the Zhou army cross the Zezhou defense line and finally lost Gaoping Pass. How can we give them another chance now?! If there is a woman's kindness, then Zezhou City will not be able to be protected! Supervisor team, come to me!"

Hearing Li Yun's order, more than 500 supervisors immediately stepped forward and set up a large flag several feet in front of him, shouting loudly: "The general has an order. Those who cross the flag will be killed!"

The defeated soldiers heard the shouts of the supervisory team and were somewhat hesitant, but listening to the screams of the robes behind them, they were brave enough to rush back. Anyway, the Fa did not blame the crowd, and the general should not make things difficult for them. But they did not think about what time it is now? Now is the time when the army is alive and dead, and there is no hesitation at all!

The supervising team members raised the bows and arrows in their hands and looked back. Seeing that Li Yun did not express any expression, they shouted loudly: "Brothers, the general has an order, and those who retreat will be killed!" Seeing that the defeated soldiers did not respond, the supervising team members did not dare to hesitate anymore and immediately shot arrows at the defeated soldiers in front. Although they deliberately avoided the crowded places, dozens of defeated soldiers were still caught in arrows and fell to the ground screaming.

All the soldiers who retreated were stunned. They did not expect that the supervisor team would really dare to shoot at them. Some people glared at the supervisor team, but when they thought about their family in Luzhou, they lowered their heads again. Oh, who made themselves incorporated into the Dead Soldiers' Camp!

At this time, Fan Shoutu shouted loudly: "Brothers, retreating means death, and you can at least have a way out! Old and young men, come with me!"

Under Fan Shoutu's loud agitation, most of the soldiers followed them toward the direction of Dahui Village. This time, everyone was not as hesitant as before, and rushed up with wooden shields. However, when the morale was at its highest, the soldiers could not break the defense of Dahui Village. Although they were desperate before, they no longer had the confidence and spirit of winning just now. Soon the soldiers were beaten back, and even Fan Shoutu was shot three times.

This time, Li Yun did not order the supervisory team to shoot, but ordered the soldiers to drive the defeated soldiers aside. At the same time, Dan Gui also led the forward to rush forward. However, Dan Gui and the others did not attack the Dacheng Village, but formed a thick line of defense.

At this time, just where Li Yun's central army was located, the soldiers pushed out more than ten catapults, which were nervously assembled. These catapults were treasures in Zezhou City. If the grain warehouse in Gaoping Pass was not attacked, Li Yun would not be willing to remove them from the city. Because he was afraid of affecting the defensive power of Zezhou City, Li Yun only removed half of the catapults from the city and transported them to the battlefield this time, with a number of about fifteen.

Seeing the enemy starting to assemble the catapult cart, Dong Zunhui and his friends who were watching the battle in the rear changed their faces. Because they arrived lightly, there were almost no long-range shooting weapons in the Zhou army camp. Not to mention the catapult cart, even the number of crossbows was small. If the enemy assembled all the catapult carts, everyone could watch the Dahui Village destroyed by the enemy!

Gao Huaide frowned and asked, "Dong Shuai, what should I do?"

Shi Shouxin, who was standing beside him, curled his lips and said helplessly: "What else can I do? I can only use my life to fill it! If I give up Dahui Village, our army may collapse in the middle under the pursuit of the enemy. Not to mention retreating to Tianjing Pass, we may not be able to keep Taihang Mountain. General, please give me orders quickly. Shi Shouxin is willing to be the pioneer! Even if my army sacrifices, they will have to destroy all these catapults!"

Dong Zunhui did not nod, but immediately ordered: "The defenders of Dahuizhai remained unmoved, and sent orders to the frontiers to retreat one hundred feet immediately!"

The messenger next to him immediately ran down the tower to pass the order, and soon the soldiers began to act. Dong Zunhui said to Shi Shouxin: "I know the performance of the catapult car in Zezhou, only 180 feet. As long as we retreat a distance, the enemy's catapult car could not shoot us at all. As for the Dahui Village, the influence of the catapult car was considered when designing it. There were some anti-artery fortifications. Even if the enemy consumed all their catapult car, as long as we rescued it in time, they would not be able to capture the catapult camp."

Just as they were talking, the soldiers had retreated to a safe place. Some soldiers took off their armor and only brought weapons to prepare for the rescue camp. Dong Zunhui and others waited for a long time, and everyone was a little sleepy. The catapult cart on the opposite side finally launched an attack. However, looking at the terrible accurate head of the catapult cart in the local catapult cart, even Murong Yanzhao, who had a serious face, couldn't help laughing.

The Zhou army soldiers all laughed, but Li Yun's face turned pale. He shouted angrily: "What's wrong with you? Why are you so accurate?! And we have brought fifteen catapults, but only twelve launched an attack? What's wrong with those three? Why haven't they assembled them yet?"

Li Shouqin, the commander of the catapult, hurriedly said: "Master, the parts of the catapult are polished one by one and cannot be mixed. The parts of the three catapults were a little worn during the transportation process, and it is difficult to assemble them now. As for the accurate head, Master, the artillery soldiers under my command are temporarily held. It turns out that those artillery soldiers are Zhang Fu's confidants. They were ordered to be killed by the Master a few days ago. I really don't have any talents in this area!"

Li Yun felt a little regretful when he heard Li Shouqin say this. A few days ago, after Dan Gui deceived Zezhou, the Zezhou garrison general Zhang Fu was killed by Dan Gui on the spot. Later, in order to completely control Zezhou, at Li Yun's instructions, Dan Gui killed all the soldiers loyal to Zhang Fu in the Zezhou garrison! He wanted to eliminate hidden dangers, but he did not expect to eliminate all these technical troops!

Seeing this, Li Yun couldn't blame Li Shouqin, so he snorted coldly and said to him: "Don't make so many excuses. You must take down the Dahui Village today. If you miss the matter because of yours, I can't spare you!"

Li Shouqin kowtowed repeatedly. After Li Yun left, he immediately directed his subordinates to fine-tune the catapult car, based on the catapult car that had just hit Dahui Village. However, everyone became monks halfway through the journey and their efficiency was extremely poor. Although their level had improved a little over time, it did not cause much harm to Dahui Village, but it just caused dust in the village!

The catapult in Li Yun's army was just a scary little episode and did not have much impact on the entire battle situation. On the first day, he passed by in a dull manner...
