From eunuch to emperor

The catapults kept smashing the kerosene tanks, and the pirates were burned to the ground, but the number of catapults was too small, only five, and there were [-] pirates, so they could only disrupt the formation.

"It would be nice if you could bring the coal tar over here."

Looking at the pirates swarming over, Zhang Qian missed the coal tar used in Linjiang City very much.

Dugu Jiali raised her bow, followed by two thousand crossbowmen.

"put!"

Two thousand feathered arrows whizzed out, like locusts crossing the border, and landed on the pirates, causing a large number of pirates to fall.

Feathered arrows flew out continuously, and the pirates fell one by one.

Dugu Jiali took a bow and shot the leader of the pirates.

The pirates hid behind the siege engine and rushed forward. The archers slowly approached. When they were a hundred steps away from the city, the pirates began to fight back.

Arrows flew up from under the city, and some soldiers fell to the ground after being hit by arrows.

Wu Xiangyun hurriedly carried the wounded soldier down, and the city had already arranged a medical center for treatment.

Bai Tingting watched Haikou slowly charge forward, she felt itchy in her heart, and said, "My lord, I want to go down!"

Zhang Qian objected: "You go down alone to die!"

Bai Tingting couldn't stand the itch, and said, "I can still kill these little guys."

Long Chen said: "Many ants kill elephants, they are much stronger than ants, why are you going down?"

Bai Tingting's martial arts are not strong enough to be able to break into the army alone, and she will definitely not be able to come back.

Bai Tingting curled her lips, picked up the crossbow and shot the pirates who rushed over.

The pirates rushed over, shooting arrows from both sides. The pirates kept approaching the city wall, and the siege engine was pushed to the edge of the city wall.

Wu Chuchu slashed and killed the pirates who climbed up with a simple knife, and Bai Tingting also drew his sword to fight, and the two sides finally met.

Long Chen charged back and forth on the city with a long spear, and when he saw the pirates climbing up, he turned over and threw the corpses down.

Haikou climbed up, Xiangtian and Mendorang led behind him.

Looking at the pirates climbing up, Long Chen always felt that these pirates didn't try their best.

"Old Wu, I'm going to see Ximen!"

The west gate is the place with the weakest defense. Part of the city wall there has collapsed, and it has been urgently repaired in the past two days.

Wu Jian understood Long Chen's meaning in seconds, and immediately led a horse over.

Long Chen rode his horse and ran towards the west gate. The doors of the shops along the street were closed tightly, and the common people dared not come out after closing the doors and windows. Only the soldiers ran back and forth.

Long Chen quickly arrived at the west gate, and saw a group of men holding swords fighting with the soldiers guarding the west gate.

The two siege engines outside the city pushed to the edge of the city wall, and the pirates had already climbed up.

Long Chen's flying horse rushed over, stabbing with his long spear repeatedly, and a dozen or so should be pierced through.

Seeing Long Chen approaching, the soldiers who were forced to the corner got their morale boosted and shouted: "Master Long is here, kill him!"

Long Chen killed a dozen more, and then jumped onto the city wall. More than 100 pirates were fighting with the defenders. Long Chen ignored them and kicked over the siege vehicle.

The siege engine collapsed, and the pirates who attacked the west gate fell down.

There were more than 3000 pirates under the city, Long Chen jumped down, holding a long spear and killed anyone he saw, the pirates were killed and fled in all directions.

The pirates who had already climbed the city wall jumped over the wall one after another to escape seeing the army crumbling.

After killing the pirates, Long Chen didn't continue to chase, turned around and climbed up the city wall, and rode his horse towards the east city gate.

When we arrived at the east gate, the fighting continued. There were almost 1000 corpses piled up under the city wall, and there were more than [-] wounded soldiers on the city wall. The fighting was very fierce.

When Long Chen came back, Zhang Qian asked, "Has your lord gone to Ximen?"

Long Chen said: "The people in the city should have tried to break through the west gate wall, but they have already been wiped out."

Dugu Jiali and Han Ziping were still bending their bows to kill each other's archers, Wu Chuchu and Wu Xiangyun were fighting hard, and Wu Jian directed the catapult to continue throwing the kerosene cans.

Long Chen looked at Xiang Tian and Men Dalang in the distance, a horse hurriedly came to their side, and the man said something.

Long Chen probably reported the failure of Ximen's sneak attack.

Men Duorang and Xiang Tian turned their heads to look at Long Chen, and after discussing a few words with each other, the pirates began to call for money to withdraw.

The pirates retreated, and Qianjiang County withstood the first wave of attack.

Zhang Qian ordered to check the casualties, and the wounded soldiers were treated immediately, and everyone quickly ate, drank and rested.

"The attack at the east gate is a feint, and the west gate is their target."

Bai Tingting understands what it means to be a slap in the face.

Long Chen shook his head and said: "No, the east city gate is also their attack target, and the west side is their breakthrough point. This is called a combination of righteousness and surprise."

It is difficult to achieve results by attacking from the east gate alone, so a new breakthrough is needed.

Wu Chuchu and Wu Xiangyun were so tired that they collapsed on the ground, but they were very happy.

1 pirates attacked the city, but they were repelled and more than [-] were killed.

"Sister, we have avenged our parents."

"No, not yet, killing Mendorang and Xiang Genius is considered revenge."

The soldiers brought by Wu Chuchu also killed very happily today.

Long Chen said: "Everyone take the time to rest, speed up the repair of the damaged city, check the bow and crossbow weapons again, and be ready to meet the enemy at any time."

Wu Jian got up and went to check immediately.

Long Chen went up to the city wall, looking at the retreating pirates, he knew that the battle was not over yet.

outside the city.

Wang Da entered the army tent with the color on his body, and said cursingly, "Why are you retreating? They all rushed up!"

Xiang Tian said coldly: "There is no inner space in the city, and the frontal attack on the city has failed!"

Mendorang didn't understand, and asked a young general next to him: "You have more than 3000 people and you still have siege vehicles, why can't you get in?"

The young general shook his head and said: "We went up to look, and there were only more than 100 people inside. They couldn't open the city gate, so we could only climb up. Later, a powerful general came, and we had no choice."

Xu Yuan felt strange, and asked: "How come there are only more than 100 people in the internal response? We have placed so many people in, where are the people?"

Xiang Tian smiled helplessly: "Didn't you hear that Long Chengen divided the family property of the three ancestors? They are no longer slaves, but masters. Who is willing to be your internal assistant?"

In fact, Xiang Tian himself also overestimated the number of insiders. He thought that the number of insiders was enough to break through Ximen, and they just had to wait outside.

After all, he underestimated the power of Long Chen in attacking local tyrants and dividing up the land. These people got the benefits and ran away with Long Chen.

"Then what? We're done for now?"

Wang Da stuck the saber on the ground and found a horse to sit down. He really wanted to break into the city and kill Long Chen for revenge.

"Attack again at night, we are good at sneak attack at night."

Mendoro said.

The pirates raided houses and robbed houses, and were very good at sneak attacks in night battles, especially in individual night battles. If they chose to attack at night, it would be much better.

Bai Guimaru said: "That female general's arrow technique is too accurate, attacking during the day is too dangerous, and they are blind at night, I agree to attack at night."

Everyone is waiting for Xiangtian's decision.

But Xiang Tian shook his head and said: "No, we can't attack the city anymore, more than 1 brothers died today, we have to change our tactics."

Mendorang asked: "Change your style of play? How?"
