More than a dozen magicians had just flown over the east city tower when a chilling sound of strumming strings suddenly sounded from below. Due to the back and forth, they forgot that they were on a battlefield and removed the magic shield they had originally cast, but now they were in trouble.
Looking at the dozens of figures falling down, Li Jingxian's heart was bleeding. There were only twenty magicians in the vanguard, and most of them were dead at once. The rest were still in limbo in the city, even if they defeated him today.
It’s not easy to explain to Gongsun Mi either.
Hooray, the military flag of the first battalion of the Special Forces Regiment waved out from the city tower, the figures on the city wall were staring blankly, and the enemy who had just escaped emerged from nowhere.
Bang, the city gate gate fell heavily to the ground, and the city gate closed inward under the influence of the winch.
Li Jingxian pointed to the staff officer of the 3rd Division: "You, lead people around the city from the north gate, and quickly go to the city defense barracks. The others will follow me to break the city gate."
There is no need to guess at this time, the target of the special operations group must be the city defense barracks.
Let's take a look at the situation of the city defense barracks.
After the staff of the 3rd Division left and led the troops, the troublemaking people gathered in front of the door again. The people who came back were unarmed, but the scoldings were even more unpleasant. They were so cruel that no officers and soldiers in the camp wanted to think about that experience.
Finally, someone couldn't help but insult them, opened the camp door and rushed out, intending to teach those people a lesson.
Something went wrong this time when we left the camp. There was a loud bang, and several tanks exploded on both sides of the camp gate. The explosion caused broken tiles, broken wood, and broken sand to fly everywhere. The nearby soldiers were swept up by the air wave caused by the explosion.
Unfortunately, there was no civilian nearby.
"Kill!" A fat officer rushed out of the crowd holding a sword and shield.
"Kill! Those who lie on the ground will not die!" People in red military uniforms jumped out from all directions.
Even those who were cursing in front of the door quickly changed their clothes, picked out weapons from the ground, corners of walls, roofs and other nooks and crannies, and followed the fat officer into the city defense barracks.
The officers and soldiers of the 4th Division woke up from the shock of the explosion. Some well-trained people immediately organized defenses, some hurriedly looked for weapons and armor, and many more retreated and dodged.
Whoops, whoops, the terrible sound of crossbow arrows came. Now the people entering the military camp were lined up in military formations. Each man was equipped with a long and short crossbow. When he entered, he shot two waves of arrows first.
The sober officers and soldiers are even more sober, the special operations group is coming!
The huge military camp immediately exploded, "Run! The traitors are coming!" How could the officers and soldiers of the 4th Division still have fighting spirit?
They preconceptionally thought that if the enemy came in, they would be sure to win, and they would definitely lose. So why should they fight hard? They should run away first.
However, the second and third battalions who entered the city defense barracks were really powerful. They used their crossbows and arrows without missing a target, making them invincible with swords and guns. After entering the camp, they were like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, beating the local army to pieces.
Lei Feixiang was the first to jump to the central flagpole. He raised his knife and dropped it. The hemp rope holding the flag broke and the 4th Division's military flag plummeted.
"The bandit army has been defeated, and those who tie themselves will avoid death!" He now raised the price of the enemy's surrender. Just now, he was lying on the ground, but now he is tied up. This means that the special forces have taken control of the battle situation.
Although more than 5,000 people from the 4th Division remained in the military camp, layers of defenses were breached, and all the stubborn resisters were slaughtered. Less than 500 people were still fighting, and more than two people were lying on the ground and starting to tie themselves up.
thousand.
The battle at the east gate began. The 3rd Division used crude tools to climb the wall and was almost completely exposed to the crossbows of the 1st Special Forces Battalion. Of course, the 1st Battalion was not polite and fired arrows to its heart's content.
Dou Xiao rode on the tower and shouted: "Remember everything for me! Don't take the credit from others, there are still many military achievements below!"
Bang, he swung his left hammer to deflect a powerful arrow. Seeing how arrogant he was, the people below jumped up in anger, so naturally some high-level archers fired cold arrows.
The muscles on Li Jingxian's face were twitching.
Suddenly, he jumped off his horse, reached out and grabbed a long ax from the soldier beside him, shouted: "Get out of the way!" and then rushed towards the city gate.
"Hey, this is mine." Dou Xiaoqi threw away his hammers and raised his crossbow to aim at the charging general.
Whoosh, another sharp arrow shot at him, and a soldier next to him immediately stretched out his shield, "Hey, you're blocking me." His vision went dark and he lost his target.
In terms of numbers, Li Jingxian's men were definitely more numerous, and the number of people assisting him was several times greater. How could Dou Xiaoqi be allowed to attack him easily?
Li Jing rushed to the door first, using both arms to strike out with a long ax. Bang, the city gate shook violently, the ax got stuck in the door panel, and long cracks appeared on the facade.
The city gate opens outward, and it is difficult to open it by just hitting it. You must open the opening, hook it, pull it outward, and pull the gate open to pry the gate gate open.
The beheading warrior easily dealt with the door panels. Li Jing first swung his long ax and slashed hard, bang bang bang, the two doors were chopped to pieces, and soon the gates inside were exposed.
However, there were crossbowmen in the city gate. As soon as a big hole was made in the door panel, the crossbow arrows flew towards them with a sharp sound of wind. Li Jingxian did not dare to neglect, and quickly turned the ax handle and stepped away quickly.
A soldier nearby shouted: "Why is there water? No, it smells like alcohol."
Li Jingxian also felt a few drops of water on his face, and a strong aroma of wine wafted from the tip of his nose.
The sharp-eyed soldier said: "There is a water bag on the arrow."
"Oops! Get out of here." Li Jingxian suddenly woke up.
Nanqiu County is rich in something called alcohol. I heard that it can be used to heal wounds and can also be used in place of lamp oil to light fires. The military doctor has a few bottles there. He smelled a similar aroma of wine when he was giving medicine to the wounded soldiers yesterday.
Of course, if the enemy shoots alcohol at them, it will not heal their wounds, and the rest will only be used to set fire.
Sure enough, the second wave was shot by rockets. Judging from the speed, it was obvious that they were shot from a bow. The rockets accurately landed on the place where there was a lot of alcohol, and instantly ignited flames.
The archer set up another rocket, and his target at this moment was Li Jingxian, who had more alcohol spilled on him.
"Protect the general!" Seven or eight soldiers rushed over and protected the division commander with their bodies.
There was a crackle, a bunch of jars were thrown down from the city wall, and kerosene flowed all over the ground near the city gate.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Li Jing took the lead and ran back.
He knew how much kerosene there was on the city tower. He had specially prepared it for a large group to prevent the enemy from storming the east gate, but he did not expect that it would be used on them at this time.
"Ah!" There was a scream, and a soldier blocked an arrow for Li Jing first.
"Fuck! What a coincidence." Dou Xiaoqi put down his crossbow and turned sideways to avoid an arrow.
He finally shot an arrow at the enemy general, but a soldier jumped out to block him halfway.
Li Jingxian ordered angrily: "Sound the horn to signal reinforcements from the troops in the camp!"
Only less than 2,000 of the original 3,000 troops and horses were left. The enemy's firepower guarding the east gate was too fierce. If the attack continued like this, they would all be wiped out in less than half an hour.
"Oops, not good! Poof." He spat out a mouthful of blood.
The staff officer of the 4th Division rushed up to support him and asked: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
"I, I shouldn't send people into the city. The situation in the city defense barracks shows that reinforcements can easily be deceived." Li Jingxian covered his chest and inhaled hard.
At this time, it was too late to wake up. The body of the staff officer of the 3rd Division fell heavily to the ground. A fat man disguised as a soldier from the 4th Division raised his dagger and shouted angrily: "The leader of the traitors is dead, why don't you surrender quickly!"
From the outside of the city to the north gate and then to the city defense barracks, it took more than ten minutes for the horses to gallop. The people entering the city to rescue were not cavalry, and they encountered many obstacles along the way. By the time they arrived at the street near the barracks, it had already been half an hour.
after.
A group of people disguised as soldiers from the 4th Division ran over with their faces covered in blood and kept shouting: "It's so miserable, it's so miserable!"
The staff officer of the 3rd Division, unaware of the fraud, hurriedly called them over to inquire, and the scene described above happened.
The reinforcements were shocked. Crossbow arrows were fired from both sides of the street, and the local army was immediately in chaos.
Lei Feixiang didn't bother to wipe the blood off his face. He flew with his sword and shield and charged into the enemy group as if he were in an uninhabited area. However, those who resisted would be killed without even a moment's notice, and their heads would be dislocated, killing the enemy soldiers with fear.
The special forces ambushing on both sides of the street broke down the doors and windows one after another and rushed out. In units of ten, armed with long and short weapons and strong crossbows, they plunged into the reinforcements like sharp swords. No one could stop them.
It was another one-sided battle. A group of local troops that Gongsun Mi had finally trained were so fragile when faced with truly elite troops. They were simply vulnerable.
The military camp outside the city sent two brigades to assist Li Jingxian, but before they could gain a foothold, black smoke came out from behind the military camp.
There are two platoons of the special operations group responsible for raiding the military camp outside the city. Those two hundred hungry wolves are not willing to play supporting roles. They attack the military camp every chance they get. How can they stop them without a heavy troop garrison?
The first wave of sneak attacks was to attract the attention of the enemy generals, and the second wave of sneak attacks was to take advantage of the situation. This time, they went in with open swords and guns, killing people and setting fires in front of the defenders.
Li Jingxian had wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and took a sharp look at the East Tower. "Go back to the rescue camp!" He ordered through gritted teeth.
This battle was a frustrating one. Initially, he was bent on scheming against the special operations group, but he was trying to defeat the special operations group. He fell behind step by step, and was led by his opponent all the time.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, those little eyes!" Dou Xiao saw clearly while riding on the tower, "Why did you take away so many military achievements from me?"
"Hey, if the battalion commander is not satisfied, his subordinates are willing to lead people to chase them back." The fourth platoon leader grinned and geared up.
"Get out!" Dou Xiaoqi kicked out, "Watch your city gate."
The person who fired the rocket at Li Jing just now was the fourth platoon leader.
Bang bang, a messenger ran up and said: "Captain Lei ordered the first battalion to move to the south gate immediately."
"My subordinates take orders!"
After the ordering soldiers left, the fourth platoon leader came up again and asked: "What? Why are we retreating? My subordinates have just seen the city defense barracks. Our military flag is flying over there. Those cowards outside have also retreated to the barracks. We
Isn’t it nice to be here?”
"You know nothing! Are these the enemies in front of you?" Dou Xiaoqi turned his head and looked north, "There are several times more enemies than this and they haven't arrived yet."
At this time, Gongsun Mi was inspecting the woods where the first battalion had been ambushed. Wei Lunhui followed him limping. After being escorted to the central army, he received thirty military sticks.
