Chapter 427 Jiang Wei kills enemy generals, reinforcements arrive
Jiang Wei had seen it when he was lying on the top of the city and watching. The Weiyang Palace was north of the White Tiger Gate.
This means that Jiang Wei and his team are on the left hand side and Yang Ke and his team are on the right hand side. If you climb over the palace wall, you can jump into the Weiyang Palace.
The Weiyang Palace is huge, and the continuous palace communities have not been repaired for some years, and the warehouse pools are almost dry. The Wei army, which defended against the attack of the Han army in the south, is currently stationed in this palace.
So when Jiang Wei and the others jumped off the palace wall, they saw that the palace complex in the distance were surrounded by tents, weapons, supplies, and warehouses, which were the places where the Wei army stored supplies.
Seeing this scene, the team leader who followed couldn't help swallowing and said, "If you bring tincture oil and burn a torch here, wouldn't it be a great achievement?"
Jiang Wei gave him a blank look and said, "Are you sure it's a great achievement?"
“Isn’t it?”
"If you really burn the Weiyang Palace, do you believe it or not and the Governor will kill your dog's head?"
"ah?"
The captain said dumbfoundedly: "Why?"
Jiang Wei pointed to the palace over there and said, "Your Majesty wants to restore the Han Dynasty and return it to the old capital. You burn the old capital, and see if the Grand Governor cuts you down."
The team leader immediately shrank his neck and smiled silly: "It's still the military marquis who have insight."
"Let's go, don't waste time."
Jiang Wei waved his hand.
Now Cao's camp is not left at all, their men are already in short supply, and almost all of them are sent to guard the twenty-six kilometers long city wall.
God knows how the Wei army can defend such a large area by just 50,000.
But Cao Pi had no choice.
Liu Bei's main force attacked Henan, and he could no longer send so many people in Huainan direction. It would be great if he could have 100,000 people in Guanzhong.
And naturally, these 100,000 people could not all be crouched in Chang'an City.
If Lantiangu does not defend, it will be connected to Guanzhong through Wuguan Nanyang, and Liu Bei will be able to take a defensive position against Henan. The main force will directly take Guanzhong from Nanyang, and Chang'an will be even more difficult.
There is also a rear grain channel and aid channels that must be defended. A large area of the hinterland in Henan also requires a large number of people to arrange defense lines.
So there are only 50,000 people in Chang'an City, which is almost the limit of the Wei army.
Shen Chen's large-scale attack on Chang'an put huge pressure on Zhong Yao, and he couldn't even defend the city wall, let alone the camps in the city.
Therefore, Jiang Wei was almost in a state of no one, and walked through Weiyang Palace in a swagger, passed through the Cangchi from a pile of military camp tents and weapons, and rushed towards the south palace wall.
Three hundred soldiers carried more than ten ladders and ran away. In a moment, they had already reached the south wall.
Jiang Wei did not immediately order to use a ladder to climb the south wall directly, because the ladder they brought was as high as eight or nine meters long, and was used to climb Chang'an City. If the palace walls of more than three meters high were made of ladders, they would easily be discovered.
So he first asked someone to use his hands to build a ladder and look up at the situation outside.
A moment later, half of the head emerged from the south wall. Jiang Wei saw that Yang Ke's rear army was about a hundred steps away from his right hand, and he was in it, commanding the soldiers in front to attack the White Tiger Sect.
The direction of the White Tiger Gate is two hundred steps away from his right hand. It is not that the palace wall is far away from the door, but that his position is far away from there. If he goes a little west, he will be closer to there, but the chance of being discovered will be greater.
At this time, Yang Ke had no idea that someone was peeping at him more than a hundred steps behind him. The battlefield was in full swing. Huo Yang was fighting hundreds of Wei troops from Taichang Street in the rear. Wu Dang was also entangled with the enemies on the south wall. The White Tiger Gate was already in danger.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Wei said without hesitation: "Go!"
"superior!"
The team leader below immediately sent an order.
At that moment, more than ten ladders were mounted one after another. The soldiers climbed up the ladder, grabbed the edge of the palace wall with their hands, then hung themselves beside the palace wall, and jumped down.
Because they were far away from the battlefield and the Wei army's attention was in the direction of the White Tiger Sect, no one noticed them at all.
Jiang Wei was the first to jump down, squatted quietly on the ground, grabbed the steel knife in his hand firmly with his hands, moved forward slowly, and moved forward towards the battlefield.
In a moment, about 300 Han soldiers jumped off the palace walls.
They have no formation.
Because the storm caused too much noise.
So Jiang Wei signaled everyone to play their own way, and then sneaked over quietly.
"On the left and right wings, go to the two teams and get on!"
Yang Ke was riding on the war horse and looked at the battlefield situation in the distance. Seeing that the enemy's left and right wings slowly contracted, he knew that they were about to be defeated, so he decided to put in some more strength.
The terrain at the entrance is relatively wide, which is more advantageous for the Wei army, which is crowded with power, so siege is obviously a good idea.
At this time, Dan Yi was also covered in blood.
His martial arts are worth a lot of strength. He had only a good body of brute force in his early years. Later, he learned martial arts from Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning and others. His martial arts were very powerful, no worse than Gan Ning at his peak.
But the so-called good tigers cannot stand many wolves, and heroes cannot defeat four-handed men. Not everyone can fight for more than 100 people like Xiang Yu, so when facing enemies that are several times higher, Shan Yi also struggled to support him. More than twenty of them fell under him, but he was also severely injured.
The situation on Wu Tao's side was not much better. In addition to the two thousand Wei troops on the front, a large number of Wei troops also rushed from Taichang Street and the city wall above Zhangcheng Gate, with nearly 5,000 people filling the entire passage. The Han army was obviously at a disadvantage at this time.
Jiang Wei and dozens of Han troops slowly moved forward along the palace walls, almost moving forward against the enemy's back. Here, they were only a few dozen steps away from Yang Ke's position. Once any Wei army turned around and found them, hundreds of Wei soldiers would immediately turn their spearheads and fight towards them.
He held his breath and looked at the enemy quietly, and saw two groups of Wei troops carrying weapons on the right side of the queue circling around the left side of the Han army. The defense of the Han army was getting weaker and weaker, as if he tried harder, the left wing of the Han army would be defeated and they would be able to win.
However, after these two teams passed, Yang Ke was completely exposed. Before, Yang Ke was located in the middle of the rear army formation, with people in front, back and left and right. But now he sent all the soldiers who were pressing the formation, and there were only two or three hundred Wei troops in front of him.
Jiang Wei glanced closer and immediately aimed at the only general who had seen on a horse wearing an iron armored helmet.
It's him!
Less than ten steps away, Jiang Wei thrust his waist and pulled his knife out.
Before he could stand straight, the steel knife in his hand had already swung it, and drew half a circle from side to top of his head, raised it high, then jumped, and the ring-headed knife ran over the officer's head with the sound of whimpering wind...
"call out!"
The sound of the steel knife whistling through the air was almost no one heard it on the crowded battlefield.
Yang Ke was still shouting loudly to ask the soldiers to continue attacking fiercely, without realizing that there was an extra person behind him.
After this breath, he suddenly felt a pain in his neck, and then he lost consciousness, his eyes wide open, and he seemed to fly into the air.
When I watched it again, the last scene that came to my mind in Yang Ke’s life was a large piece of his body still riding on the horse!
His head was cut off, and blood from his neck instantly splashed out, staining Jiang Wei's face.
"kill!"
This knife seemed to be a signal.
Three hundred Han soldiers behind him roared and raided the Wei army's rear formation.
In an instant, the Wei army was caught off guard and was disrupted by the Han army, and the formation collapsed instantly.
The formation of the rear army quickly implicated the front army, and the Wei army became extremely chaotic. It was so messy that I didn’t know how many people the Han army had arrived. I only heard shouts of killing in front and behind, and swords and guns on both sides.
"Not good, the general is dead."
"The general was killed."
"Run quickly."
I don’t know who screamed in despair, and Wei Jun was immediately in an uproar.
Wu Tao, Shan Yi and the Han army in front suddenly noticed the chaos behind the Wei army in the distance, and immediately became energetic and shouted, asking the soldiers to charge and take the opportunity to attack forward and backward.
Jiang Wei, who was behind, led the soldiers to be extremely brave again, shouting and echoing the front and back of the snipers, and immediately cut off the Wei army into a few sections, and could not take care of each other at the beginning and end.
For a time, there were shouts of killing, scolding, greeting, screaming, and iron weapons as weapons intersected. The Wei army in brown leather armor was everywhere along the road, and the furrowed hats rolled around on the ground...
Shan Yi rushed the most fiercely. Regardless of his injuries, he cooperated with several teammates and entered the formation. Jiang Wei was also covered in blood, all of whom were the enemy's blood. He was flexible and slashed the steel knife in his hand everywhere. He could take away a life with one knife. The efficiency of killing people was very fast, and he had seven or eight lives in his hand in an instant.
The two teams of Han troops quickly drilled the Wei army through. After Jiang Wei and Shan Yi met in the middle formation, he shouted to Shan Yi: "Senior Brother Yide, you left and I am right."
"good."
Shan Yi responded, and then from a vertical character, the two of them chiseled a cross horizontally.
The Wei army fought and retreated, and several small officers shouted and wanted to gather the formation again, but Yang Ke's death and the chaos of the raid in the back formation made it difficult for the Wei army to recover the situation as soon as possible.
In this case, some Wei troops wanted to attack the enemies behind them first, some were entangled with the enemies in front, and even turned around and ran away.
Everyone's ideas instantly became different from the consistent attacks when they assembled the array.
This is what a general is most afraid of.
The reason why the army is strong is that many people unite and twist their strength into a rope.
When the two sides fight, it is like two ropes tangled together and wrestling with each other. If the fibers that make up the rope start to break first, then anyone may become the first rope to be pulled.
Therefore, sometimes when the two armies face off, it often depends on who can't hold on first. For example, the Battle of Changping is the best example. If Zhao State cannot withstand it, it will have to lose the war.
This is the situation now.
The Wei army was suddenly attacked behind him and the generals were killed. Without anyone to command, no one would tie the broken rope again, and naturally they would be defeated like a mountain of defeat.
Shi Jun’s reinforcements finally arrived.
Chapter completed!
