Chapter 384: Shura Battlefield

Even though Cao Hua was mentally prepared for the tragic level of ancient wars, his cruelty was beyond his imagination.

Fang La's army had just won the battle and was in a strong morale. The defenders were inspired by the heavy rewards, and under the influence of the supervising team, their morale was not bad.

In terms of equipment, the defenders of Muzhou City are obviously advantageous, with inexhaustible crossbow arrows, rolling wood radium stones, and tinder oil.

From morning to evening, the tide-like Fang La army, with its simple shields, had most of them without armor. Facing the boiling oil, fire and the rain of arrows like locusts, leaning against ropes and wooden ladders, they bit their swords and attacked the city wall seven times, and were beaten back seven times.

The city wall was filled with broken limbs and burnt corpses, and soldiers who were pushed to the ladder halfway through the city wall and were poured onto the ladder by boiling oil, wailing shrillly under the city wall. And this was just the direction of the attack on the side of the Fang La army from Dongshuimen.

The front battlefield of Muzhou City, half a mile outside the city wall, has already dug a ravine. Although it cannot stop people, it can block collisions, rushing cars, ladders and other objects.

Fang Fei personally led his army to land 7,000, and occupied the city outside. He just as he assembled and launched a fierce attack.

The trench was not very effective and was quickly filled by infantry, allowing ladders and other objects to pass through. During this siege, Fang Fei made more than 40 ladders in Qingxi overnight and collided with a car in order to capture Muzhou City in one fell swoop.

Unfortunately, there were thirty crossbows on the city wall, staring at these siege equipment, and they were ignited one mile away. After being extinguished, they were ignited again. The hot temperature made it difficult for the infantry to push the ladder forward. They were already moving slowly. When they reached the city wall, they had already turned into a fireball and could not stand. The collision could lead to a little farther away, but the outcome was similar.

Without large-scale siege equipment, the Fang La army would naturally not stand under the city wall to catch blindly. The mighty infantry carried a long ladder and forced the city to climb. The twenty bed crossbows seized were also placed, nailing crossbow arrows as thick as arms into the city wall for the infantry to climb. The thousands of bows and arrows seized also allowed infantrymen who could shoot bows to fight back to the top of the city. It doesn't matter if they were not accurate, as long as they could shoot up the city wall, they could always kill several.

Cao Hua led more than 500 defenders to deal with the siege equipment, and then used a crossbow to shoot waves of arrows at the torrents below, shooting waves of arrows like mowing grass to shoot the rioters who could only shout and kill.

But there are too many people siege the city. Even if the arrows are bound to hit, how many can they be killed?

Cao Hua went from being rational at the beginning to becoming crazy until he fell into madness. He held a sword and cut down the scramblers who had climbed up one by one. His robe turned blood red, and his hair spread out and dripped with blood beads until he could not see clearly at all.

The defenders were also red in their eyes. With their excellent armor and advantages in defending the city, they cut off the top of the Fang La army, composed of refugees. Many crossbowmen's fingers were covered in blood and could no longer pull the crossbow. They gradually became tired, their morale was weakened little by little, and they gradually reached the verge of collapse.

The two sides gradually turned from passion to resilience.

As dusk fell, even Cao Hua was already weak. When he was almost desperate, the drum sounded from the distant position, and the Fang La army rushing towards the city wall retreated like a tide and left the Shura Field under the city wall.

Fang Fei couldn't stand it anymore.

The army under Fang Fei was just the people in Muzhou and the people gathered in the martial arts world. At first, they could attack the city with their passion, but after watching the people under the city wall fall down in rows, the purgatory scene made these people facing the loess and facing the sky first and dared not move forward.

The few elite soldiers in his hand, and they are not the generals of Cao Hua, who will continue to pile up people's lives, will definitely have to blow up the camp.

Until evening, the Muzhou defenders showed no signs of collapse, so Fang Fei had to withdraw his troops and repair them first, cut down wood nearby to build siege equipment, and then continue to attack the city when they were ready.

-----

The autumn wind is rustling, and the thick smoke and fire are densely spread outside the city.

There was a silence above the head of Muzhou City. All the soldiers were sitting under the battlements with bows and arrows and weapons, watching the Black Feather Guard collect the bodies and carry them under the city wall.

During the attack and defense of one day, nearly 300 defenders in Muzhou were killed or injured, and more than 1,000 bodies were left by Fang La's army.

This was only the first day. Even if we continue to follow this exchange ratio, when Fang La's remaining troops arrive, the Muzhou defenders will be the first to die.

The magistrate of Muzhou, Ye Juzhong, walked silently on the city wall and asked the captured doctor to treat the soldiers. The meat had been stewed in the city and was sent to the hands of soldiers covered in blood by women and children.

This may be the only advantage of the Muzhou defenders, and the city's material reserves are enough to last until reinforcements arrive.

Cao Hua still dripped with blood on his body. He led Xie Yijun to walk through the rows of soldiers. After a long silence, he said loudly:

"The Fang La army is just like this. When we were eating meat, they were gnawing corn. The corpses of their companions were thrown everywhere, and no one cared about them. A group of farmers who could only roar upwards, what kind of combat power can they have..."

Many exhausted defenders leaned against the city wall, gnawing on the large piece of meat in their hands, just looking at the figure passing by Cao Hua.

Cao Hua was also exhausted, but he could hold on. He walked to a soldier and spoke:

"What's your name? How many have you killed?"

The soldier was over 17 or 18 years old, with a knife wound on his arm and a bit of anger on his face. At this time, he was gnawing on his flesh with big mouthfuls. Seeing Cao Hua coming over, he spoke:

"General, Zhang Meng, the general, shot four of them to death today and killed two of them with his own hands! The sergeant can testify."

"good!"

Cao Hua clapped his hands and hooked his fingers towards the direction of the city tower.

Shen Yu, who had a pale face, ran over with the silver notes, but she didn't dare to look at them, but she still gritted her teeth and smiled. She counted six silver notes and handed them to the soldier sitting on the ground.

Zhang Meng hesitated for a moment and did not dare to pick him up.

Until this time, the defenders still didn't believe in killing one person and giving one hundred taels.

Cao Hua took the silver note, squatted down and stuffed it into the soldier's hand:

"A 600 taels of official tickets, buying a two-entry courtyard in Hangzhou, a medium-sized shop, and marrying a wife is more than enough.

Kill four more, you Zhang Meng is the Hei Yu Guard, and you will follow me, Cao Hua, to travel around the world.

I, Cao Hua, have a piece of meat, and you also have a bite. If I, Cao Hua, don’t let you die, no one in the world can kill you.”

Zhang Meng held the silver notes in his hand, his eyes a little confused.

Cao Hua stood up and looked at the many defenders:

"You know, how many people did I kill today?"

The defender shook his head.

"Guess!" Cao Hua smiled.

"Ten!"

Cao Hua shook his head.

“Twenty?”

Cao Hua still shook his head.

Tong Shu sat on the ground with admiration in her eyes: "Today, Governor Cao killed from the city tower to Dongshuimen, and then returned from Dongshuimen. At least he had killed more than thirty enemies?"

Cao Hua still shook his head and looked at the many soldiers who sat upright:

"I am Kyoto Tai Sui, and I am known as invincible in the world, so I can't be lazy. Today is not counted as the heads robbed by several brothers, I killed 102 of them alone."

"Wow—"

The lifeless defenders were just now, and the whole scene was in an uproar, and most of them didn't believe it.

Cao Hua raised his hand and pointed to Xie Yijun next to him: "Xie Daxia, how many have you killed?"

"Fifty-eight." Xie Yijun leaned against the wall with a spear in her arms, and replied a little tiredly.

Many defenders were stunned. Today they naturally noticed the young black-armored general who was rushing around, but they didn't expect that the young general's voice was a bit damn and his combat power was so strong.

Cao Hua looked at Li Bairen again.

Li Bairen's face turned red and he touched his beard: "I'll kill about 20. Yang Qiu is doing this for defending the city. I'm afraid that he will shoot about 100 people to death today."

Yang Qiu is one of the Yuhoushou of the Black Feather Guard. He has a unique pearl arrow in the world. He can penetrate Yang with hundreds of steps and hide on the city tower to kill. He has indeed killed a lot in one day. His right hand, which has drawn the bow, has lost its strength, and it is difficult to lift it up.

Cao Hua nodded: "Then Yang Qiu will be the deputy envoy from now on, and Lao Li retreated to be the wise man."

When Yang Qiu heard this, he shook his head: "No, no, Li Touer must beat me to death afterwards. I will shoot a cold arrow from behind, and I can't compare with you."

"Hahaha...."

The Hei Yu Guard and many officers and soldiers laughed, while Li Bairen's face was flushed and he did not dare to speak.

Cao Hua also smiled for a moment and continued:

"There are only 20,000 people on the other side. A group of farmers and long-term workers who have never trained before. How many times can we fight for this? The offensive will definitely become weaker and weaker.

Everyone on the other side had silver notes hanging on their heads, killing one hundred taels. The brothers who died in battle and killed many people, Ye Tong, were remembered, and they would send them to their hometown in the future to let their parents, wives and children live a good life.

After this battle, everyone is brother. If you have any problems in the future, just say hello to the Hei Yuwei Guard.

The government cannot make the decision, I am Cao Hua, I am the one whom the government dares to take charge of, I am Cao Hua, I am the one whom the government dares to kill, even if he is the prince or the prime minister."

Many defenders had their eyes burning. Zhang Meng looked at it for a long time and said:

"General Cao, can I follow you in the future?"

Cao Hua nodded: "I am a ruler and I can kill ten people. Even if you are a prisoner, I can help you recover your freedom and enter the Black Feather Guard."

"Okay! With the general's words, I will bring back four more people tomorrow."

"Hahaha...."

Cao Hua waited for everyone to finish laughing, and continued to look at a soldier:

"What's your name? How many of them were killed today?"

"......My name is Liu Yu, I killed one..."

"Yes, keep working hard, the girl from Hangzhou City is waving to you..."

Shen Yu took out a silver note and handed it to the slightly blushed soldier.

Cao Hua asked one by one, and the Black Feather Guard also joined in, asking everyone over and asking them to shout it out. Only in this way can they feel honor or shame and be brave because of their comparison psychology.
