Chapter 142

They have no way to manipulate these beasts directly.

But they can stimulate the secretion of certain hormones, making them more irritable and more aggressive.

Under the dual manipulation of aggression and animality, the beast tide began to slowly gather!

Not long after, Su Hai brought the soldiers of Qianhu Suo to the edge of the city wall and began to look into the distance.

They really saw many beasts gathered outside the city wall!

"Why are there so many beasts?" The soldiers began to discuss.

The appearance of such a large number of beasts is obviously not a normal thing!

And those beasts surrounded the city wall, which is even more abnormal!

"Have you reported the matter here?"

"My subordinates asked, and it has been reported a long time ago."

"Has it been reported a long time ago?" Su Hai looked at his subordinates around him.

"According to the scout brothers who came back, the surrounding beasts showed abnormalities two days ago, but they did not gather in the end, so they were not dealt with!" The subordinates hurriedly explained.

"Well." Su Hai responded with a worried look on his face.

However, he didn't know that on the battlefield, his expression would actually cause a big blow to the morale of the soldiers.

Fortunately, these Ming soldiers knew very well that the beasts on the opposite side would not accept their surrender at all, so they naturally had no intention of laying down their weapons and surrendering.

"Sir, we only have one Qianhu here, and we are not equipped with firearms, and there are not many defensive equipment on the city wall."

Since firearms played a huge role in the two northern expeditions, the effect of firearms has been talked about by people.

The soldiers were naturally curious about firearms.

The soldier suggested: "Sir, why don't we retreat? This kind of situation of beasts besieging the city has never happened before. I think the Ministry of War will not blame us!"

"Humph! As a centurion of my Ming Dynasty, he speaks wildly when he encounters a little trouble! He talks nonsense about retreating! Come on, take him down! Keep him under strict supervision!" Su Hai quickly ordered someone to take the person who suggested retreating down.

If he could retreat, he would definitely not be vague and would have run away long ago.

But the enemy is already at the door, and he doesn't even fight. Isn't this courting death?

Chapter 151 The Guards' Response

"Archers, prepare to shoot!"

"Take out all the rolling logs and stones!"

"Throw down the iron spikes! Set up the chevaux de frise!"

Su Hai arranged the worst-case scenario and began to arrange protective equipment for the chevaux de frise at the edge of the city gate.

Many beasts outside the city wall have begun to gather their strength.

"Roar!!!"

After a shrill roar, the first beasts began to attack the south wall!

Su Hai commanded confidently, because the south wall was not where he was responsible for garrisoning.

When he didn't know when the reinforcements would arrive, and when his superiors would command, it was obviously stupid for him, a thousand households who had never experienced a large-scale battle, to send support directly.

Dong Dong Dong————

The sound of rolling stones soon came one after another not far away.

The beasts that appeared within the range of the rolling stones were smashed to pieces by the impact of the stones.

The formation of the beasts soon became chaotic.

"Shoot!"

Arrows with long white feathers were quickly shot out in the direction of the beasts.

In an instant, the beast in the middle was shot through.

Although the resurrection of spiritual energy has made the beasts stronger, it has not made them invulnerable.

Some beasts in the front row were crushed into bloody hedgehogs by stones and rolling logs.

From a high position, the attack power of rolling stones and rolling logs is quite good.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers showed a relaxed smile.

Especially seeing that many beasts did not avoid the rolling logs and iron nails that had fallen to the ground.

"Beasts are beasts, they have no ability to distinguish at all, and they stepped directly on the nails!"

"I thought they were such difficult things, but they turned out to be a bunch of blind beasts!"

The hundred households, thousand households, and generals in all directions encouraged the soldiers with their own methods.

Under this layer of encouragement, the fear of the soldiers when they first saw these groups of beasts gradually subsided.

There was even a contempt in their hearts that the beasts were nothing more than this.

However, when the soldiers saw the beasts stepping on the bodies of their companions and stepping over rolling logs and iron nails, they prepared to fight again.

"Roar!!"

The death of the beasts obviously stimulated the surviving beasts.

Many leading beasts such as lions and tigers began to roar to the sky.

However, some people with knowledge and hunting experience changed their faces at this moment!

Not only because the beasts were stimulated to be ferocious, but more importantly, these beasts did not retreat after seeing their companions die.

According to hunting experience, most beasts do not have the so-called revenge.

If they see that the situation is not good, they will basically choose to evacuate directly instead of continuing to attack like they are sending themselves to death!

But the beasts in front of them obviously violated some of the real intelligence they knew!

This situation is obviously a very dangerous signal!

This means that they are no longer safe!

The beasts in front of them are not the kind of beasts they usually know!

Staring at the corpses of the beasts in the front row, the beasts behind began to gradually approach the city wall!

The beasts did not have any awe at all for the rolling logs and iron nails fired by humans.

They still launched a fierce attack on the city wall, looking quite fearless.

Crack, crack!

All the siege traps thrown down were broken by the beasts!

The beasts' crazy charge was amazing even to the soldiers on the city wall.

Seeking benefits and avoiding harm is the nature of humans and animals.

This group of beasts actually overcame their nature as animals.

It was an incredible thing for anyone to see!

Crack-crack-

Under the endless falling rocks, iron nails and bows rolled.

One after another, the beasts that intended to charge were repelled.

The beasts without sufficient wisdom and command were killed and injured in an instant.

"Fortunately, fortunately, if these beasts had a command behind them, this battle would be a bit difficult."

"But I always feel like something is wrong."

Some people were still celebrating, while others had begun to notice something wrong.

Suddenly, the sky gradually darkened!

"Oh no! There are birds!"

The thousand households guarding the city woke up instantly.

He hurriedly shouted: "Be careful of the birds in the sky!"

According to records, birds are basically social creatures, and there are not many large birds near Jinling City.

But the number is enough to make up for the difference in quality to a certain extent.

Many people suddenly looked up at the sky.

Small animals such as sparrows and swallows began to attack the soldiers like crazy!

Thousands of people fell into chaos instantly!

"Don't panic! Keep shooting arrows!"

"Go to nearby to seek support!"
