Chapter 84 Xue Ke Arrives

Boom!

The Thunderbolt Chariot continued to throw stones at Xianping City.

This made the White Lotus soldiers on the city wall dare not show their heads.

After all, although the trebuchet has low accuracy, you may be the unlucky one who is hit.

No one dares to gamble.

Seeing this, Lin Chen called a personal guard to let Mu Guiying try to capture the city.

At the same time.

In the city, a White Lotus believer hurried to the courtyard built by the rich merchants in the city to report the news.

"Protectors! The imperial army is attacking the city!"

"Finally!"

These protectors laughed instead of being angry.

They had been waiting for the imperial army to attack.

"Let's go, we will go to the city wall to supervise the battle!"

There was only a burst of fierce shouting and arrows were scattered.

The White Lotus archers on the top of the city ignored the threat of the trebuchet and shot from a high position.

Even though Lin Chen's soldiers were carrying simple shields to block their heads, some were unlucky enough to be shot and fell to the ground.

"Ah!"

"No, I was shot!"

There were also archers in the imperial army who fought back to provide cover.

From time to time, soldiers of the White Lotus Sect who were accidentally shot by arrows would fall off the city wall.

"Quick!" Wang Wu gritted his teeth and put the cloud ladder on the city wall.

This cloud ladder has a barb on one side of the wall that can hook the gap in the city wall.

The barb is made of iron to prevent it from being cut off.

This is the real cloud ladder.

Not the ladder-like thing in some ancient movies.

But.

Lin Chen looked at the well-prepared White Lotus Sect thieves on the city wall. They had already prepared rolling logs and stones, and the boiling gold juice.

The so-called gold juice is feces.

Once this boiling hot gold juice is poured down, anyone who touches it will definitely be torn to pieces.

Even if they survived, their wounds would be infected by feces. In the ancient times without antibiotics, there was no hope.

"Sound the horn, and withdraw the troops." Lin Chen couldn't bear it any longer.

Dingdang! Dingdang!!!

Upon hearing the order, the imperial soldiers who were attacking the city retreated, and they did not forget to take away the wounded and corpses of their own people.

This time, they tried to attack the city, but they didn't even touch the city wall!

Mu Guiying came to Lin Chen with a gloomy look and apologized.

"I am sorry for my failure in attacking the city!" Seeing this, Lin Chen shook his head.

He had never thought that Mu Guiying could really take down Xianping City.

Otherwise, did they really think that the White Lotus Sect's defense arrangements for Xianping City were shoddy?

After Lin Chen comforted her, Mu Guiying finally let go of the haze in her heart.

This girl is still inexperienced after all.

"What are the casualties?"

"Seventy dead, no less than five hundred injured!"

In other words.

Just this test, more than 500 people were lost.

On the other hand, the White Lotus thieves in Xianping City have not yet used their full strength.

No wonder the generals in ancient times were so taboo about sieges, it was really difficult to fight.

"In this case, let's make plans later."

Lin Chen's eyes flashed with a strange color, and he was not upset at all because of this defeat.

Because this was all in his plan.

At the same time.

The medical guards in the military camp were wailing and groaning.

"Officer Lin, there are not enough bandages!"

"Officer Lin, there are not many herbs for stopping bleeding!"

The medical guards, which had just been established, were in a mess at this time.

These medical guards, who were half-grown children, were not scared by the bloody scene in front of them. It was good.

As a female officer of the medical guards, Lin Shiyin did not seem flustered, and all kinds of affairs were in order.

These doctors who were kidnapped by Lin Chen could not help but admire him and were convinced.

After all, letting a woman be the immediate superior, these doctors didn't say anything, but they must have some complaints in their hearts.

When Lin Chen came to the medical guard to visit, most of the injured soldiers had their wounds bandaged.

You know, Lin Chen equipped his soldiers with leather armor and paper armor.

Although these two are not as good as iron armor, they are better than nothing when facing arrows.

So except for the unlucky guy who was shot in the face by an arrow, most of them were injured in their hands and feet, and the injuries were not serious.

"General Lin!"

Wang Wu was not lucky. He was hit in the arm by a stray arrow and was also sent to the medical guard.

After seeing Lin Chen's figure, Wang Wu, who was still joking, hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Seeing this, Lin Chen signaled the other wounded soldiers to lie down.

"Your name is Wang Wu, right?"

Lin Chen looked at the hundred-man general in front of him, vaguely remembered something, and asked.

"Yes, my name is Wang Wu!" Wang Wu's tone was a little excited.

Because he didn't expect that a general like Lin Chen would still remember his name.

Lin Chen patted his shoulder to show encouragement.

"Damn, did you see that? General Lin patted my shoulder!" Wang Wu boasted to someone beside him in a low voice.

The latter looked envious.

If he hadn't been shot in the buttocks, he would have stood up and saluted just now.

"Are you still busy?"

Lin Shiyin didn't notice Lin Chen's approach at all, and was cleaning the blood-stained bandage.

Hearing the familiar voice behind him, he couldn't help but be startled.

Lin Chen looked at the fine beads of sweat between the black hair of the woman in front of him. Her tense and serious face relaxed after seeing him, and a touch of joy from the heart appeared between her eyebrows.

However, after noticing the sweat dripping down her cheeks, Lin Shiyin couldn't help but take two steps back, subconsciously covering her chest with both hands, and her cheeks flushed.

For Lin Shiyin, a rich lady who has received etiquette.

Her image is not very good now.

She must smell bad with all the sweat!

Thinking of this, Lin Shiyin cried in her heart.

Lin Chen didn't understand what was wrong with this girl, but handed Lin Shiyin a handkerchief to wipe her sweat, and then turned and left.

He came to inspect the medical and health care, and greeting Lin Shiyin was just a side job.

After inspecting the wounded, Lin Chen planned to call a meeting of the lieutenants in the army.

But he didn't expect.

Yang Zhi hurried to find him.

"Sir, someone outside the village wants to see you, saying that he is your old acquaintance?"

Old acquaintance?

Not long after.

Lin Chen saw the so-called old acquaintance in front of him.

Two burly men, with unruly eyes, restrained a little after seeing him.

Huh?

Six senses swept over the two people.

Lin Chen was a little surprised.

These two people are actually second-rate warriors?

These days.

Do masters of this level not want money?

"Who are you?"

"I am Zhang Heng, this is my brother Zhang Shun, we..."

Zhang Heng, who still had a little bit of arrogance in his tone, was also secretly looking at the ghost-faced general in front of him when he said that he was entrusted by Xue Ke.

Earlier, Xue Ke boasted that General Lin was a military genius in front of them.

"Xue Ke is here?!"

Lin Chen heard a gleam in his eyes.

As for the two people in front of him.

After hearing the other party mention his name, Lin Chen was thoughtful.

If it is not an accidental coincidence, then these two people are also members of Water Margin.

Zhang Heng, the boat fire, Zhang Shun, the white shark in the waves.

These two people are two outstanding naval leaders in the book.

It can be said that someone will give you a pillow when you want to sleep.

With these two people joining, his next plan will be much easier.

"Please stand up, two warriors." Lin Chen's voice became gentle.

Like the timely rain, he personally stepped forward to hold the hands of the Zhang brothers and helped them up.
