Under the astonishing high temperature caused by the fire, and the strong stench that even people who were accustomed to all kinds of stench suddenly felt nauseated and nauseated.
Hu Biao was still the instigator, and this guy was the first to react.
You know! The opponents who have successfully climbed onto the city wall now include fifty or sixty people along with the Jurchens. Isolated by the fire scene below the city, they have become like turtles in a jar.
The most important thing for them now is not to sit around in a daze.
Instead, it would be reasonable to kill them all in one go, and then lead everyone back to the city wall immediately to prepare for the next street fight.
This decision was made because the foundation of the city wall in Haiyang City was really poor.
Even in the previous time, Hu Biao and the others had tried their best to strengthen the city wall as much as possible.
However, in the continuous battles, this poor city wall was smashed by the opponent with trebuchets in the early stage, and was frantically poached with various tools in the later stage.
Now that another person is burned by such a fire, it is certain that it cannot bear it and will collapse soon.
The only suspense is whether such a collapse will result in a large area falling down at once, or whether it will collapse and create many gaps.
But no matter how it collapsed, the biggest support Hu Biao and the others had was completely unusable.
This is one of the reasons why Hu Biao and others have not used these combustion cans for a long time.
If you don't use it well, you'll be setting yourself up for trouble.
After thinking about the above, Hu Biao faced a Jurchen in front of him who was in a huge shock. She was completely stunned and had not reacted until now.
After he was knocked to the ground with a clean shot, he yelled: "What are you doing in a daze? Kill~"
Amidst such a sound, the two sides on the city wall finally reacted and started fighting again.
But being single and weak, the opponents on the city wall, including those Jurchens, are now in a state of despair, and their combat effectiveness is not online at all.
So soon after, these people were all killed one after another at the top of the city.
At this time, under the increasingly fierce fire and waves of heat, the iron armor on Hu Biao and others was boiling hot.
This ghost place is almost to the point where no one can stand.
At this time, Hu Biao shouted again: "Old snake, blow the trumpet~"
Immediately afterwards, the shrill sound of the horn sounded again on the top of the city; but this time the sound of the horn meant that everyone immediately retreated down the city wall.
In such a situation, Hu Biao held a long spear in one hand and helped up a seriously injured soldier of Xuange Camp with the other hand, and the two of them staggered back toward the city.
The others did not need Hu Biao to say anything, and they all made the same move.
They all brought their own weapons and companions who needed help, and quickly left such a furnace-like place.
According to estimates, this fire could burn for at least half an hour.
If you wait until the fire is completely extinguished and the hot area cools down enough for people to pass through, you will need to wait for at least an hour.
This means that they will have a buffer period of one hour in the coming time.
Unfortunately, at the beginning of the evacuation, there were no smiles on everyone's faces, and some only had deep and solemn expressions.
Indeed! I am so happy.
In the previous total time, which was only seven or eight minutes of fighting, just here on the northern city wall, they had killed and injured another seventy or eighty people in the fierce battle.
If we include the casualties on the east and west walls, there may be a total of 1,560 casualties.
It means that their remaining combatants are only more than 400 people in total; how can they be happy when they have no support like the city wall.
Therefore, when the retreat began, everyone was very silent and their expressions were quite solemn.
When he reached a staircase going down, Hu Biao finally couldn't hold back the huge anger, frustration and other emotions in his heart.
He stood across a wall of fire, raised his voice, and shouted crazily in the direction of the Jurchen army below the city:
"Wanyan Loushi, I'm waiting for you in the city.
If you want to take Haiyang City, you can take the lives of your Jurchens if you can; don’t act like a bitch who just hides behind those Liao soldiers and acts like a coward~"
The voice just fell, and now the two hundred people who were retreating on the northern city wall all shouted in agreement:
"Wanyan Loushi, we are waiting for you in the city, don't be such a coward~"
After shouting three times in a row, their skin began to ache because the armor was so hot. They quickly retreated towards the city without waiting for Wanyan Loushi and others outside the city to react.
They had finally given up. They fought hard for many days and nights, and paid countless blood and tears...
****
As for the Jurchens, what is the reaction now?
First of all, even though they had gone through dozens of difficult and bloody battles in the past seven days, the scene in front of them was like a flaming purgatory.
Especially when two or three hundred people were completely wrapped in flames, that one kept struggling and rolling in the screams until they were burned alive and turned into a black object lying on the ground.
After still letting them see it, his legs trembled and his face turned pale.
In comparison, being killed happily in a fight in the past can be said to be a pleasure.
Then, those Liao soldiers who surrendered to the Jurchens now feel regret in their hearts; you must know that these soldiers and horses from Bei'an Prefecture of the Liao Kingdom took the initiative to surrender to the Jurchens without firing an arrow.
The Jurchens.
My only idea is to have a thick thigh to hold on to in this troubled world.
As Wanyan Loushi's army marched south to Pingzhou, my heart was filled with fervent expectations.
I look forward to performing well in front of these new masters and winning a bright future. I also look forward to plundering and making a fortune in the process.
Before officially arriving at Haiyang City, they had no doubts about the above thoughts.
Because the Jurchens' fighting power was in their view invincible; on the contrary, their opponents were just Song people who could not defeat even Liao soldiers like them.
The result? The battle here in Haiyang City is a huge nightmare for them.
If they had a choice, they would have run away and refused to continue fighting.
It's just that those Jurchen cavalry have been cruising outside, supervising battles. How can they outrun horses' legs when they rely on their legs to run? They don't even have a chance to escape, and they will be shot.
Even if you want to catch fish during the attack, it is impossible; because if you slack off even a little bit, the Jurchens will kill them like chickens.
After every attack failed, the best outcome would be for the dozen or twenty unlucky guys who were picked out and chopped up in public.
The problem is that now, after looking at the hell-like sea of fire in front of them, they no longer have the courage to attack Haiyang City.
To be more precise, their fear of the Song people in the city exceeded the Jurchens for the first time.
The so-called lesser of two evils, after they thought of something; now that there were about 600 Liao soldiers left, their eyes became fierce when they looked at the Jurchens.
Betrayal on the spot? Not that it would be possible; but if the Jurchens dare to drive them to attack again, everyone will be defeated one by one.
Finally, there are the Jurchens, who are also very confused now.
That's right! It's a strong confusion; because they feel that all the scenes in front of them have deviated from their original familiar understanding.
For them, a normal battle should not be the same as the support troops sent by Zhang Jue in Pingzhou City a few days ago; the moment they saw them, their courage froze before they started fighting their opponents.
After a relaxing and comfortable battle that was like hunting.
Our side only suffered 20 or 30 casualties, and not only defeated the opponent's thousands of cavalry, but the general also easily killed them.
Wherever it is like here in Haiyang City, no matter how hard they fight, those on the city wall will always persist in resisting.
After adding up the number of Jurchens who died intermittently in battle, they all reached a terrifying number that chilled them all.
That was over a thousand people, almost one-third of their Jurchen army.
I'm afraid that if Wanyan Agu heard about such a casualty figure, he would be so distressed that he couldn't sleep, right?
As for Wanyan Loushi, a famous Jurchen general, at such a time, he looked very calm when faced with crazy provocations.
There was still a clear understanding in his head, and he said to his officers:
"Don't look at the powerful words of those Song people, they are nothing more than the howling of some poor people before they die; after the fire is extinguished, they can all be extinguished in one battle."
The problem is, while he was saying this, he was fiercely attacking his men. When Mou Ke and others looked over, they found that everyone had their heads opened.
He didn't look at him or say anything, and no one even answered his words; including some generals from their Qishui tribes.
It was obvious that no one wanted to continue fighting except him.
For a moment, Wanyan Loushi's mood, if he could use an adjective from the modern world, would be: they were all a bunch of pig teammates, and his heart was very tired.
Because these people's vision is still too short-sighted...
