Liu Yu said seriously: "Yes, I believe that their original goal was to break through the siege from the northwest corner, but for some reason, they turned to the west city. The Yan army in the west city should be about to launch some killing move.
But this accident disrupted their arrangements, and now the show is about to begin."
Having said this, Liu Yu looked serious and said seriously: "The enemy's counterattack should also be launched from the West City. I think they want to suddenly attack with the main force of Ju's armored cavalry when our army is attacking the city with all its strength. And this
At that time, our army's defense was actually the most vulnerable. The previous thousands of armored cavalry could disrupt our army's siege layout from the side. If tens of thousands of armored cavalry suddenly burst out, then our army's west city defense line would collapse.
In view of the risk, I sent an order to Tan Shao to tighten the troops and guard them tightly, especially to defend against assaults from the city gates and walls. Without my order, the city cannot be attacked!"
Liu Muzhi frowned slightly: "But our army has strengthened its infantry and cavalry a lot, and the chariot troops are also moving closer to the west city. If we want to retreat at this time, the frontline soldiers may have some ideas. Besides, I don't think so.
The enemy's tens of thousands of cavalry can rush out of the city at once, unless there is no city wall."
Wang Miaoyin also said sternly: "Yes, the terrain in the West City, our army occupies the high point outside, is not a suitable place for a decisive battle on the ground. On the contrary, here in the South City, the city wall is more than twice as wide as the West City, and it was also there before.
Overturning the wall, hundreds of immortal monsters have been killed. Even if the enemy's cavalry attacks, it is more likely to come from here. Or, in the east city, although the city head is already covered with lime water, they can also attack from the tunnel or the city wall.
Even if you come out, it may pose a threat."
Hu Fan also nodded and said: "Yes, and there is also intelligence in Beicheng. It is said that the enemy has a large group of infantry coming out and is fighting with the ambush here. There is no large army of our army there, and the enemy cavalry can have a few before them."
Thousands of men and horses are going to fight out. If we want to get out of the city, it is easier to get out of the city in Beicheng."
Liu Yu shook his head: "It's not that easy from Beicheng to transfer to West City or East City. You have to run nearly ten miles first, and now our ambush in Beicheng has been launched. It's not easy to fight out from Beicheng. If you want to go directly
The siege troops attacking our army must be most suitable to attack from the East City or the West City. As for the South City..."
He raised his brows slightly and said: "The front army still has about 20,000 infantry and cavalry, and our Chinese army does not need too many troops. The remaining 5,000 people are enough for defense. The other more than 10,000 horses,
Half go to the west city and half go to the east city to prevent possible enemy raids."
Wang Miaoyin's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly: "This will empty out the soldiers and horses in Nancheng, not to mention whether the Xicheng area will really be raided, nor whether all the enemy's armored cavalry will come from there.
To break out of Nancheng, let’s talk about the soldiers who are attacking the city in front. They have already entered the Wengcheng of Nancheng. Our archers are also occupying the city wall. It is the time when we need to work harder to break through. At this time, we have to withdraw.
Nancheng’s soldiers and horses, is this really good?”
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "Here in Nancheng, if there are more soldiers, there will be no further breakthrough, because the black robes will send mobile troops to block here, and if there are few soldiers, the enemy will not be able to make a surprise attack. As I said before, they will not
What is the space and possibility for the iron cavalry to break out, but there is such a possibility in Xicheng? I must put the main force in the direction where the enemy is most likely to make a surprise attack, so that I can be foolproof. If the enemy's final attack
All armored cavalry are dispatched, which means there is no longer any force that can massively counterattack our siege. At this time, we can attack the city in an all-out manner as planned, and Zhang Gang's siege equipment can also be put to great use."
Having said this, he took a deep breath and said: "I believe that as long as I am here, I will be able to withstand all kinds of attacks from the black robe, no matter whether there are five thousand troops or five under my commander's flag. Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can persist until the victory of this battle, carry out my command, now!"
The six or seven order soldiers who had been prepared long ago bowed and retreated. Liu Yu looked in the direction of Xicheng and murmured: "Heipao, how will you fight back?"
Xicheng, north side, Jin army array.
Shen Tianzi gritted his teeth and watched the armored knights on the opposite side getting closer and faster. The ground beneath his feet was trembling slightly, and the various bronze masks worn by the armored knights on the opposite side were... Whether they are beasts or evil spirits, the various styles and shapes are becoming increasingly clear.
Dozens of large shields have been erected behind the wall of death, which is a pile of dead horses and corpses. In front of this wall of corpses, within a distance of thirty steps, there are also corpses of men and horses scattered on the ground. , those are the leftover products after the previous charge. The shields are large and very strong. They are newly brought by the reinforcements from the rear. With these, plus the obstacles formed by this thick pile of human and horse corpses, , enough to withstand the impact of these iron cavalry.
More than a hundred crossbowmen, holding large crossbows, stood behind the shield wall. Different from the usual straight-aiming shooting, they now tilted the powerful crossbows upward slightly, forming a shooting angle, which made this The round of crossbow strikes can pass over the shield and fly out diagonally. Although the range of about thirty steps is sacrificed and the strength will be weakened, it can still hit the enemy's armored cavalry at a distance of about a hundred steps, forming a complete A lot of damage.
The roar of the new range-finding soldiers echoed in the position: "The enemy's distance is one hundred and fifty steps."
Shen Tianzi himself was holding a large crossbow, raised slightly, and stood in front. He took a deep breath, and amidst the getting louder and higher, the hoofs of the horses and the roars of Xianbei language, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone is Listen up, three rounds of crossbow attacks, then the sergeants in the front row will withstand the assault with their spears in hand, and the sergeants in the back row will prepare for a hand-to-hand encounter. This time the enemy may not dare to enter our formation again. If they don't come in, we will fight out!"
A sergeant on the side blinked: "Third brother, what if the enemy doesn't charge at our formation and comes from the flank?"
Shen Tianzi laughed and said, "Leave the flanks to Lao Si's cavalry. Listen carefully. If the Yan thieves bypass the front and attack from the side, maintain a good formation with a big shield and don't let their arrows fly." The rain will disrupt the formation. You are only allowed to shoot at each other, not to attack. You must obey my orders in everything!"
The whole team shouted in unison: "Yes!"
The range-finder soldier's voice was already shouting at the loudest level, and you could hear his throat was congested: "The enemy's range is one hundred steps!"
Shen Tianzi turned his head and slammed the crossbow machine in his hand. In his row, a burst of crossbow bolts rose into the sky, roared out of the shield formation, and scattered forward, accompanied by Shen Tianzi's roar: " Three arrows in a row, all lit up!"
