Two days later.
Hongnong County.
Prefect's Mansion.
As soon as the fifteen-year-old Wen Yang entered the house, he saw his father Wen Qin with a sad face. Wen Yang laughed and said, "When does father get worried?"
"Alas!" Wen Qin sighed and said: "The Han army has launched an attack for two days. If the reinforcements from the imperial court do not arrive, this Hongnong City will be destroyed.
I’m afraid I can’t keep it.”
As soon as Wen Qin finished speaking, his son Wen Yang disagreed and said: "Why is my father so depressed? The Han Emperor has been here for three days. Although he has attacked the Hongnong River fiercely in the past two days, he has not been able to cross the river."
Three days ago,
The Han army's 120,000 troops approached the Hongnong River.
This time the Han army came with great force, and it seemed that it wanted to completely destroy the Wei Dynasty.
In the past two days, the Han army tried to cross the Hongnong River more than ten times.
However, the desperate resistance of Wen Qin and his son failed to allow the Han army to cross the Hongnong River.
"You also saw it!" Wen Qin said: "The Han army used rocket launchers this time, but I, the Wei Dynasty, still use long guns... alas..."
Wen Qin is also a veteran who has been in battle for a long time, but this time, he is really worried. The Han army's attacks in the past two days have all used rocket launchers to open the way, and then the army marched straight in.
If it weren't for the obstruction of the Hongnong River, the current Hongnong City might have changed its surname to Han.
Wen Yang was not worried. He smiled and said: "Father, don't worry. We are blocked by the Hongnong River. It is not that easy for the Han army to cross the river." After that, Wen Yang sneered and said: "Besides, I
There are still more than 30,000 defenders in Hongnong City."
Wenyang is young,
This is the first time to guard Hongnong with my father.
As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.
After two days of fighting, he was not frightened by the rocket launchers of the Han army. After all, the Hongnong River was more than ten feet wide. The Wei army only needed to deploy three crossbows on the east bank of the river. The Han army wanted to cross the river, but there was no way.
So easy.
"Report!"
While the father and son were talking, a small school hurried in from outside. As soon as he entered the room, he saluted Wen Qin and said: "Master Fu, the Han army is preparing to cross the river."
"Here we go again!" Wen Yang sneered, then raised his hand to Wen Qin and said, "Father, my son will lead the troops to fight today, and father will guard the city."
"Okay! My son, be careful!" Wen Qin did not refuse.
"Father, don't worry!" Wen Yang said loudly: "As long as the children are here, the Han army will not be allowed to cross the Hongnong River."
After saying that, Wen Yang led several young generals and left the prefect's mansion and headed toward the west of the city.
...
West Bank of Hongnong River.
Liu Chan, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, came outside the tent and stretched himself. The scenery around Hongnong was pretty good.
The early morning air is clear and pleasant.
Dongdong,
Dong dong, dong dong dong.
A war drum sounded, followed by a deafening explosion.
Liu Chan knew that today's battle had begun again.
On the edge of the river beach, the chariot general Wu Yi waved his long sword, and thousands of Han troops were immediately there. They pushed brand-new rafts and quickly entered the Hongnong River.
"In today's battle, we can only move forward, not retreat."
This was not the first time that veteran general Wu Yi commanded an army to attack Hongnong. In fact, he had commanded the battle against Hongnong ten years ago.
However, this time, Hongnong has become a hard nut to crack.
The army has been attacking for two days, but has not yet reached the east bank of the Hongnong River. Wu Yi is naturally a little anxious, because Hongnong City is adjacent to the Hongnong River to the west. Only by crossing the Hongnong River can the Han army attack Hongnong City in a large scale.
.
The terrain of the Hongnong River is relatively narrow. The maximum number of people crossing the river at a time is five to six thousand, and no matter how many people there are, they can't squeeze in.
East Coast——
Wen Yang saw the Han army preparing to cross the river again. He glanced coldly at the Han army on the other side who was about to cross the river, and shouted loudly: "Launch!"
"The Han army must not be allowed to cross the river."
"No!"
The crossbowmen heard the promise and slammed the crossbow machine at the same time. In an instant, three crossbows roared, and dozens of spears roared out.
Xiu Xiu, Xiu Xiu Xiu.
Spears fell from the sky, and soldiers on the Han army's rafts that had just started rowing were shot and fell into the river.
At the same time, the bed crossbows on the Han army's side were also in trouble.
One after another, rocket launchers crossed the river and flew straight to the Wei army's position on the opposite side. Soon, dust was flying, people were on their backs, and shouts were heard everywhere.
Hongnongchengtou.
Wen Qin's face was gloomy. He had been commanding in front of the battle for the past two days. He was ordered to guard Hongnong half a year ago. The Hongnong River is a natural barrier, so before the Han army arrived, he deployed a
More than fifty three-bow bed crossbows were used, and small fortresses were built around the bed crossbows using cement bricks and other materials.
Because the surface of the Hongnong River is only more than ten feet wide, but the range of the three-bow bed crossbow can reach five to six hundred steps, almost twenty feet.
The Wei army on the east bank of the Hongnong River can use bed crossbows to attack the Han army on the west bank of the river. The bed crossbows of the Han army on the west bank can also attack the Wei army's positions on the east bank.
With these cement brick fortresses, they can resist the attacks of some Han army's crossbows.
However, this time the Han army used rocket launchers.
Even if it is a cement brick fortress, every explosion will have a strong impact on the fortress.
"Go!"
"Rush!"
Among the Han soldiers on the river, although some soldiers were constantly hit by the Wei army's spears and fell into the water, the soldiers who did not fall into the water screamed and rowed forward faster.
If the Wei army had only used bed crossbows to attack, the Han army would have already attacked Hongnong City. However, in addition to using bed crossbows, the Wei army also deployed more than 2,000 archers on the hillside of the east bank. As long as the Han army's rafts entered,
When they were within shooting range, they used their strong bows and crossbows to greet them.
"Shoot!"
"Cum!"
Bang bang bang, just as the Wei army general ordered the archers to start shooting, a deafening explosion was heard nearby.
However, none of these two thousand archers seemed to be afraid of death.
They dodged the Han army's rocket launchers and then quickly fired arrows into the river.
Good luck.
The west bank of the Hongnong River is relatively narrow, and the Han army cannot deploy too many crossbows to launch rocket launchers. In total, there are at most more than ten rocket launchers. After each round of firing, more than ten rocket launchers fall on the Wei army's position.
As arrows rained down from the sky, the Han troops in the river immediately began to wail, and soldiers continued to be hit by arrows and fell into the water.
"Rush, rush!"
"Rush over!"
A general was a little anxious. In the past two days, the Han army launched more than ten attacks, but could not cross the Hongnong River once. Instead, thousands of soldiers were killed.
On the other side, Wu Yi didn't think too much. The group in front had just rowed into the river, and he ordered the Han troops following behind to continue down the river.
The Hongnong River is not wide, but the ferries on both sides are relatively narrow, and there is only one place to cross the river. If the ferry was wider, he would send 10,000 to 20,000 people to cross the river at one time. Even if the number of casualties would not be too small, it would still be
Able to rush through with the help of numbers.
People from the Han army kept descending into the river, and Wen Qin at the head of Hongnong City became even more nervous.
He could see that although the Han army crossed the river more than ten times in the past two days, the number of people at most was three to four thousand people each time. Facing the strong resistance of the Wei army, they could be driven back quickly, but he was a little worried.
They will increase the number of troops crossing the river regardless of life and death.
Now the Han army has increased the number of people crossing the river. It seems that the Han army must cross the Hongnong River today.
