Fighting is all about fighting for someone else and having the momentum to move forward.
Xue Wanche's momentum infected the soldiers behind him, and they rushed forward with howls and roars, and their horses galloped like thunder.
While running, Xue Wanche constantly adjusted his direction and led his troops to charge fiercely from the place where the enemy and we were fighting. The pursuing Turkic army was attacked on the flank and had to turn his sword to meet him and could not care about the pursuit.
But the flank is a very critical position. The horses are rushing forward and crowded together, making it difficult to change direction. Once attacked, the army formation will inevitably be in chaos.
Xue Wanche chose the attack direction to be on the left side of the Turkic army. The Turkic army basically held a sword in the right hand. If he wanted to defend against the attack from the left, he could only turn his horse around and face the enemy head-on. This angle was too tricky and too deadly.
"boom!"
The next moment, the army rushed over fiercely.
The Turkic army was suddenly in chaos. Many people hurriedly reined in their horses and stopped, but they were chased by their companions behind and became a mess.
Xue Wanche led his army to rush over, like plowing through a court to sweep a hole, and quickly killed each other without slowing down. He joined forces with the troops who were being chased just now, and quickly retreated.
Just as he was about to rush to the city gate, Xue Wanche saw that the other attacking cavalry had also retreated. He rushed forward without hesitation and led his army to attack again.
This time the attack was on the right side of the Turkic army. It was easy for the enemy to counterattack, but they had to be saved.
Fortunately, we were already close to the city gate, and the archers who had retreated to the city wall in advance started shooting arrows.
A volley of random arrows, dense as rain, shrouded the Turkic cavalry with a terrifying scream.
The Turkic cavalry were caught off guard, and many of them fell off their horses. Xue Wanche happened to lead his troops and took advantage of the chaos to rush into the enemy group.
Soon, the army killed each other again. Many soldiers fell off their horses and died on the spot. However, they could not care about their anger or collecting their bodies. Xue Wanche roared and led his army to retreat quickly.
"Boohoo!"
On the top of the city, archers shot with all their might.
The arrows flew away one by one, blocking the sky and the sun. The Turkic cavalry they killed fell off their horses one after another and became a mess. They were unable to pursue and cover the army's entry into the city.
Xue Wanche rushed into the city, reined in his horse and stopped. The division commander who had retreated to the city hurried forward and shouted: "General, countless generations of sand have been prepared."
"After all the soldiers have entered the city, they will fill up the city gate."
"Follow the order!"
Xue Wanche hurried up the city wall and saw that the Turkic cavalry retreated an arrow away and did not attack. He waited a moment and arranged for thousands of archers to attack the city wall in advance. Otherwise, they would definitely chase them in and cause endless trouble.
"General, are you injured?" the head of the guard came forward and shouted anxiously.
Only then did Xue Wanche feel the pain in his back and said nonchalantly: "Remove the armor and clean the wound."
"Three arrows hit, hurry up, get the medicinal wine." the guard leader shouted loudly.
To remove the armor, you must pull out the arrow. The head of the guard looked at Xue Wanche worriedly.
Xue Wanche shouted impatiently: "What are you waiting for? Hurry up, a little injury is nothing! Brothers are watching, how can I, a general, be afraid of this little pain?"
The head of the guard realized that Xue Wanche had done this on purpose. He wanted to treat him on the spot, infect the army with his fearless actions, and boost morale. However, he still couldn't help but remind him: "General, why don't you bite something."
"No need, keep grinding and get out, and replace him." Xue Wanche shouted dissatisfiedly. Since he was trying to bribe the morale of the army, of course it would be miserable no matter what. He had no vision at all.
At this time, someone brought a bag of liquor and plaster. Seeing Xue Wanche's dissatisfied look, the head of the guard did not dare to persuade him any more. He grabbed the arrow and pulled it out hard.
The corners of Xue Wanche's eyes twitched in pain, and he almost missed it, trying his best to hold it back.
Soon, three arrows were pulled out, and blood gurgled out, unable to stop it.
The regiment leader turned pale with fright and was a little at a loss. A military doctor hurried forward, quickly took off his armor, lifted his back, skillfully poured liquor to clean the wound, and said at the same time: "General, it will be more painful than before.
, just be patient, you’ll be fine soon.”
"Speak of nonsense, hurry up!" Xue Wanche yelled pretending to be tough. The pain caused cold sweat to pour out on his forehead. He was a little unsteady. He quickly held on to the wall and pretended to be relaxed and yelled: "Brothers, yes
If you are injured, hurry up and heal, and you will be able to kill the enemy with me in a while."
What he said was so heroic that he swallowed mountains and rivers with anger.
The soldiers were infected by Xue Wanche's spirit, their morale improved again, and those who were injured went to see military doctors.
Not long after, the military doctor put plaster on Xue Wanche, tied it with a white cloth, and warned: "General, the wound is large, so you can't use any more force. Once the wound opens, you may lose too much blood and you won't be able to recover."
"Thank you!" Xue Wanche thanked him. Seeing that the Turkic army was forming in front and there was no sign of attack for the time being, he quickly shouted: "Come here, ask if the other city gates are blocked? How long will it take to clear out the remaining ones?"
"Follow the order." The head of the guard quickly agreed and arranged for someone to ask.
There were constant shouts and running footsteps coming from the bottom of the city. It was the soldiers who were carrying earth to fill the city gate. The city gate was bombed and could only be blocked with mud. Xue Wanche looked down. It would take some time, but there were thousands of people there.
With the archers here, we are not afraid of the Turkic army taking the opportunity to attack the city, but the other gates are in danger.
A division commander came in a hurry, rushed to the top of the city in one breath, clasped his fists and said: "General, the remnants have been basically eliminated, but my subordinates suspect that many have fled into the houses of ordinary people. Due to military orders, my subordinates cannot break down the doors and enter the houses to search.
I came here to ask for instructions."
Once you enter the house, you will inevitably have conflicts with the local people. It is impossible to guarantee that someone will take the opportunity to kill innocent people, rob money, or even behave in a manner that humiliates women. But it will not work unless they are caught. What if they come out to sneak attack or cause trouble when fighting with enemies outside the city?
,Very serious consequences.
Xue Wanche thought about it carefully and said: "Continue the search, be sure to clear out the remnants. Anyone who dares to stop him will be killed without mercy. But if I later find out that someone is greedy, kills indiscriminately or bullies, and ruins the reputation of the King of Han, I will personally chop off his head."
Understand?"
"Follow the order, there is really a blind man. The general does not need to take action, the subordinates will personally unscrew his head!" The other party received permission, solemnly agreed, and hurried away.
"Report——"
A man hurried over, clasped his fists and said, "General, all the three bombed gates should be buried."
"Great. Send an order to all armies to send people to continue to fill in other city gates to prevent them from being breached. You must act quickly." Xue Wanche refreshed and issued the order again.
There are twelve gates in Suiye City. Once the Turkic army goes crazy and attacks and concentrates its forces to attack one place, it is entirely possible to break open a city gate and rush in, so it has to be guarded against.
When the messengers left, Xue Wanche was determined. As long as he had the city in hand and the city gates were blocked with earth, the Turkic troops outside had no explosives to break through. If they wanted to attack, they would have to risk their lives.
As long as the Turkic army dared to take his life, Xue Wanche would dare to bury him.
"Come here if you feel like it."
Xue Wanche looked ahead, his eyes bright and his fighting spirit blazing.
