Meng Li still smiled and said:
"Looks like I have to grow wings."
Ying'er: "..."
Forget it, she couldn't act too anxious, lest her master think she was afraid of death.
In the past few years, he has been fighting with his master in the north and south. He is no longer afraid of death. What he is afraid of is the death of his master.
"It's okay. Let's wait and see. I have other arrangements for the rest." Meng Li looked at Ying'er's worry and said with relief.
Ying'er nodded slightly, and Meng Li leaned over to arrange some things for Ying'er. After hearing this, Ying'er's eyes lit up and she left in a hurry.
Meng Li did not reply to Ji Yuan's letter, and the city gate was closed. Ji Yuan did not want to waste any more time, and began to attack the city the next day.
Meng Li stood on the city wall and watched Ji Yuan galloping in with thousands of troops and horses. His expression was dull. When he arrived at the bottom of the city tower, Ji Yuan looked up and saw that the opponent was standing on the city tower in a heroic manner in armor. His posture was like a god. Overlooking the world.
"Open the city gate, return what is mine, and spare your life!" Ji Yuan shouted loudly.
After Ji Yuan finished shouting, the soldiers behind him also shouted: "Open the city gate..."
So many people shouted in unison, the sound was deafening, and Meng Li even felt that the dust on the bricks on the city wall was shaken up.
When fighting, you must first shout out your momentum. Military morale is very important.
"Ji Yuan, you offended me first, now I'm just repaying you!" Meng Li got lucky and shouted loudly.
Ji Yuan snorted: "That's true on the surface, but secretly, don't you know how many stumbling blocks you have caused for me?"
Meng Li: "No."
"I'll let you attack today. If you can take it down, this city will be yours. If you can't take it down, it will be mine."
Ji Yuan's eyes were stern, and he knew that no matter what he said, it would be useless, so he directly ordered an attack.
In Meng Li's sight, there were dense crowds of people pushing rams and holding ladders. The rams were used to open the city gates, and the ladders were trying to climb the city wall.
Meng Li said to Yinger:
"Only defend, not attack, consume them if you can."
Yinger nodded and said yes.
Ji Yuan didn't know that the city gate had been reinforced by Meng Li, and there were also mechanisms designed inside.
So when his soldiers hit the city gate with a charge car, there was a creaking sound inside the city gate, like a machine rotating.
Immediately, dense iron nails slowly appeared on the city gate. The nails were very large and the tops were very sharp. After their hard impact, the body of the ramming car and the bodies of some soldiers were pierced into it, and blood suddenly flowed out. , and the rush car that rushed over was unable to drive the rush car again because nails were pierced into the body of the car.
To put it simply, it is stuck in and cannot be pulled out.
This ram car will never come back, and even if Era sends another ram car, it will be their ram car that hits, and the damage to the city gate will be even lower.
When Ji Yuan saw this scene, his pupils shrank. Although he was used to seeing soldiers killed in battle, he suddenly saw these soldiers being impaled on the city gate, with blood holes all over their bodies. The armor on their bodies was unable to protect them. Their little protection is incredible.
I couldn't help but secretly smack my tongue, this woman is so vicious!
How could he think of such an inhumane trick
The materials Meng Li used to make these nails were special, and together with some special forging techniques that 6018 looked through the information for her to find, even so, they could only be produced in small quantities, but the armor on the opponent's soldiers was affected by the technology and materials of this era. Limitations, coupled with the interplay of forces, have this ending as well.
The difficulty of breaking through the city gate has become ****. He no longer thinks about rushing to the city gate, but hopes to get soldiers to climb the tower.
At this time, fighting requires more numbers to accumulate. At this time, the victory of a war mostly depends on the difference in the number of people between the two sides. Ji Yuan is convinced that he can win, and he brings ten times as many people as the opponent. Even if he piles up, he will kill the opponent. .
Flying arrows came like rain towards the top of the city tower. Meng Li and Ying'er erected a large shield in front of them to block the flying arrows.
Although Meng Li used a mechanism to eliminate the danger at the city gate, the people on the city wall were still unable to withstand the opponent's indiscriminate bombardment. Just after the fight, a group of soldiers fell around them.
Meng Li said calmly:
"Bring the stuff."
Ying'er quickly made arrangements. After a while, the soldiers each had a bag of sand in their hands. Meng Li asked them to lift it down. Suddenly, sand and dust filled the sky. Both the soldiers on the tower and the soldiers below were fascinated. Eye.
The only difference is that the soldiers on the tower have water and towels, so you can wipe your eyes if you get confused.
Moreover, the dust flies downward, and very little of it can enter their eyes.
But where can the people brought by the Era find water to wipe themselves from
The dust was flying all over the sky, drifting far away, and got into the eyes again. It was impossible to see clearly, so I could only shoot randomly towards the city wall, and the hit rate plummeted.
Ji Yuan's face was dusty and he couldn't help but wipe his face. He was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, this treacherous woman.
It is easy to raise dust from the tower, but when they are below, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to raise dust.
Ying'er looked at the picture below and couldn't help but said:
"If this was poison, they would all be dead."
In the past few years, Ying'er and Meng Li said this after seeing Meng Li use poison on someone in a special period.
Meng Li sighed.
Poison is good and extremely lethal, but the poison is so precious that it does not allow for such large-scale operations.
Financial disallowance is a point.
Another point is moral. Even if you win a battle using poison, it will be difficult to convince the crowd. Even if there are serious casualties in a normal war, you and I will fight hard. But if one party uses poison to win, then It's tantamount to cheating. Moreover, its casualties were too heavy, easily arousing public anger, and even becoming a reason for others to attack.
It is feasible to use it in a small area or to snipe a certain person.
But now that Ji Yuan is protected by the crowd, it is difficult to kill him.
However, there was something smeared on the arrows fired from Era, so it couldn't be considered poison. This was a common method here and was used by many, so it couldn't be considered a violation of morality.
Just smear shit juice or something on the arrowhead.
This will leave bacteria on the arrowhead, which can easily cause wound infection after hitting someone, which can be fatal given today's backward medical conditions.
Therefore, even if the person who was hit by the arrow did not die on the spot, if he died of infection later or could not go into battle due to illness, it would be a huge drain on their side.
Fortunately, Meng Li had known for a long time that Ji Yuan liked to play this trick, so he had already taken precautions. He had given the soldiers some concoction in large quantities before.
Although drugs to enhance resistance are cheap and can be used on a large scale, people with good physical fitness will not be so susceptible to infection if their resistance is enhanced.
Of course, it is not possible to prevent everyone from being infected, it can only depend on personal luck.
