Chapter 244: Weird Moves
Unlike the excited crowd outside, everyone in the courtyard was a little nervous. Pei Ji, the commander-in-chief, was now bedridden and unconscious, and his life or death was unknown. No one could stand up and command everyone to fight, but the war was imminent.
Everyone looked around and saw every familiar face. No one knew whether the people around them were still the good brothers who used to drink and eat together and chat happily when they woke up every day.
"We have prepared enough oil. These aliens only have brute force but no brains. If they dare to charge, we can slowly grind them to death." Song Ci's voice was not loud, but these words gave everyone a lot of strength.
It seemed as if the current situation was just as she had described, and they were confident of defeating the foreigners outside.
"Miss Song is right! As a woman, she never flinched, nor did she flee from the battlefield. She's here with us to fight the enemy. As men, what can't we do?"
"Right! I'm not afraid of shit. At worst, I'll be a brave man again in eighteen years!"
"That's right, beat these foreigners back! They are just a bunch of barbarians!"
The previous depressed morale was swept away, and everyone became excited and began to prepare to face the enemy head-on.
Song Ci then asked Wanxiang to boil a pot of hot water in the back, add the several herbs he mentioned and boil a large pot. Although these herbs are not expensive, they are very effective in preventing wounds from worsening and stopping bleeding. If there are wounded people, they can be used immediately, which can effectively reduce our losses.
After hearing this, Wanxiang turned around and left.
Ah Lin walked up to her and said respectfully, "Miss Song, I have followed your instructions and made the remaining food into steamed buns and other things that can be preserved."
"Well, we have done everything we can. The rest can only be left to fate."
The aliens attacked.
They were shouting words that no one could understand and climbing up the ladders around them fearlessly.
The soldier guarding above immediately poured a bucket of oil down, and the people next to him lit a handful of straw and threw it down. In an instant, wherever they went, all the foreigners with oil on their bodies turned into fire people.
The howling and shouting merged into one.
The alien leader behind him was holding a bow and arrow. Even if some alien soldiers wanted to retreat, they did not dare to retreat and could only climb up with their heads held high.
The ladder was like a string of gourds, with three or four people climbing up. When a bucket of oil was poured down, several more people caught fire.
Half an hour later, the aliens lost a lot of troops, but it seemed that the oil did not decrease at all.
The leader of the alien race also saw that the situation was not good. He looked around and saw the corpses around him, and his face suddenly became ugly.
A short alien walked up to him, opened his mouth and mumbled something, but he soon raised his hand to stop him.
The defenders didn't know what was happening, but Song Ci quickly realized, "They're going to change their strategy! Quickly, get everyone down and take cover!"
Unfortunately, her voice was limited and was heard by several people around her. However, there was no casualty. Screams were heard from people in two corners a little further away. Someone was shot by an arrow and fell from the wall. Soon, the arranged people carried him down to rescue him.
After a while, they lost five or six people, all of whom were shot by arrows and their lives were unknown.
Sweat was pouring down A-Lin's forehead. "If they keep aiming with their bows and arrows, then our strategy of setting fire won't work."
The sound of the door being banged became more and more intense. The aliens also thought it through. If the tactic of climbing over the wall doesn't work, I will break down your door. As long as the door is broken, can't they march straight in?
"Bring me the honeycomb."
"Yes!" A-Lin waved his hand quickly, "Quickly bring over the beehives we collected earlier."
"However, this beehive needs to be thrown out and it needs to be thrown to a place where there are many people to be effective. We may not be able to do it." The soldiers around all had bitter faces. They could kill people with real swords and guns, but they didn't have the ability to throw it.
Everyone around was at a loss as to what to do, after all, this depended on talent.
At this time, a small figure took a step forward and said, "I can do it." Shi Tou patted his chest.
A-Lin frowned but remained silent. Shitou continued, "Back in the village, I often hid and secretly threw stones at people. Over time, I became very accurate."
He said that when he threw stones at people, his face was serious and everyone around him was a little embarrassed.
No one knew Shitou's age, they just thought he was a troublesome child, and they were worried that he would not be strong enough at such a young age.
The stone immediately performed a throwing action. The small stone was thrown towards the wall with great force. Someone walked over and touched the place where the stone hit. Wow, there was actually a dent of moderate size, which showed that the stone had considerable strength.
"It's up to you to throw these beehives. Success or failure... depends on this one move." Alin patted Shitou's shoulder.
Shitou raised his eyebrows. "If for no other reason, these damned foreigners killed my elder brother. I must avenge them today!"
After he said that, he reached out to grab the beehive. The bees were not vegetarians either. They thought it was an enemy and attacked Shi Tou's hand. Soon, he was stung two or three times.
Shitou's expression remained unchanged. He listened to the noises and movements at the door, moved his ears, and then waved his hand. The muscles in his right arm bulged slightly, and he quickly smashed towards a certain direction outside the wall.
There was only a muffled "bang" sound, as if someone was hit, and then there was a deafening "Ah Xi Ba" sound.
The banging on the door stopped.
Stones continued to be thrown out. He listened to the footsteps and voices of the people around him with his sensitive ears. As long as he noticed a place with a lot of people, he would throw stones there. Suddenly, there were ghosts howling outside.
Seeing his soldiers thrown into disarray, the alien leader immediately shouted, "Shit! @#￥@#￥@%@%@#%!!@!!"
As soon as he finished cursing, a bee flew towards his face and quickly landed on the tip of his nose, followed by a scream.
There were quite a few beehives, but they were quickly consumed by the constant pelting of stones.
Song Ci glanced at Shitou's swollen hand and said, "Go find Wanxiang quickly and ask her to remove the bee sting from your hand and apply some medicine."
Shi Tou wanted to say no, but when he met Song Ci's serious look, he had no choice but to go to the backyard obediently.
It seemed that since coming here, Sister Song's momentum has become stronger and stronger, and he didn't dare to refute her.
The foreigners gathered themselves together for a while and counted the number of casualties in the battle. They were shocked to find that more than a hundred people were burned to death and more than two hundred people were stung by bees and unable to fight.
After a battle, in less than two hours, they had lost nearly four hundred people.
You know, due to the limitation of the area size, the total number of foreigners is not large, so this is already a huge loss.
