The Zhou army's attack on the city certainly did not end at the end. After two "feint attacks", hundreds of ladder trucks were erected and left within a hundred steps in front of the city wall, and stone bullets fell all over the sky.
"Sasha..." Another burst of dust fell.
Zhang Shihu, who was lying in the City God's Temple not far from the city gate, didn't move. He opened his eyes after hearing several "bah bah" sounds. A large bamboo hat completely covered his head and face.
The dust that fell from time to time could not fall on his face at all. Glancing at the unchanged city wall outside, Zhang Shihu patted the dust on his body and huddled up again.
The rumbling roar has not stopped since the Zhou army's thunderous chariots roared into action last evening. Zhang Shihu, who was guarding the north gate, has now adapted to the noisy sound.
It is said that Chengwu County also has bed crossbows and kerosene guns on top of the city. The range of the thunderbolt cart is not necessarily better than the bed crossbow. But hundreds of ladder trucks are blocking the front, and there are as many as three rows of sculls, which is Shen Ye
You can no longer use the bed crossbow + kerosene at the top of the city to light the thunder cart outside.
From then on, Chengwu County fell into a situation where it only received beatings but did not fight back.
After a night and a morning of stone bombardment, the entire city will be swept to the ground. The gate tower, the disc tower, the battlements and horse faces, everything is rubbish!
The entire North City wall looked like it had been chewed by a dog. It was dilapidated and ugly...
Zhang Shihu squinted his eyes and fell asleep, but more people in the temple couldn't sleep even if they wanted to. Not only were they too nervous, it seemed that as soon as they closed their eyes, countless 'bandits' would swarm to kill...
What's more, it was too noisy because of the constant roaring at that moment.
Outside the city, beneath the roaring surface, several wide tunnels extend straight to the opposite side. The moat of Chengwu County City has been drained of water, but the tunnels have been dug to the foot of the city wall. The people in the cave are still in panic, and that is the leader.
The officer was calm on the outside but frightened on the inside. His heartbeat was beating like a drum.
The Song army in the city had too many ways to deal with them, and all of them were cruel moves at their fingertips. They had no power to resist! This time and space is a world of martial arts. The warriors are all deaf and blind, even if there is a thunderbolt car covering the surface.
Is it really possible to hide this from Zhu Biao, who is in the realm of consummation?
Ever since he was chased and defeated by the Xiantian Grandmaster in the Battle of Yinping, Zhu Biao's strength has truly become clear in the eyes of the world.
The officer really couldn't imagine that he and others could hide this from Zhu Biao's ears.
This thing is like a sharp blade hanging above your head. You don’t know when it will fall. The officer and everyone in the cave were trembling in their hearts...
"Boom...boom..." Suddenly a series of huge explosions sounded.
The officer suddenly jumped up from the ground. His head hit the roof of the cave. "What's going on? What's going on?" He looked completely panicked. As for the soldiers running around with their heads in their hands, he didn't care at all.
Not available.
On the surface, under the clear and sunny sky, the originally very strong city wall was like a beach castle destroyed by the waves, and turned into a pile of ruins. "Lands collapsed and the ground cracked..." Zhang Shihu, who emerged from the City God's Temple, thought in his mind
This is the only thought left.
Zhu Biao in the city looked at the collapsed city wall, without any trace of panic on his face. Instead, he showed a heartfelt smile.
"Prepare to fight——"
Apart from the city wall, two to three hundred thousand troops were fighting in the streets and alleys of the city. Zhu Biao felt that there was really no battle so suitable for the current Song army.
Because of the formation in his hand, because of the formation called Yuanyang Formation!
With 60,000 Song troops and 50,000 infantry, the opponent had four times as many troops as himself. Zhu Biao also firmly believed that the final victory belonged to him. The one who had the last laugh must be himself.
"Kill..."
Of the five underground caves, two successfully collapsed the city wall, two were buried alive in the caves due to the 'earthquake', and the last one escaped and survived. Now there are two large gaps in the north of Chengwu County City, and four
Although the interaction between the two caves did not meet the expectations of the Zhou army outside the city, the two gaps were enough for the Zhou army to swarm into the city.
This is exactly what they did. The torrent-like Zhou army rolled into the city crazily. They were high-spirited and full of self-confidence. The Song army's city had collapsed, how could they withstand an attack four times their own strength? Every one of them
The Zhou troops who rushed into the city had the firmest belief in victory. The sound of fighting immediately started in the North City!
On the Lanyue Tower, the highest building in Chengwu County, Zhu Biao, Song Wang and other senior officials quietly watched the fighting in the north city. Zhu Biao was calm and confident, no matter how many or fierce the Zhou troops were charging through the gap in the city wall, he remained calm and composed.
The King of Song Dynasty was different. His face was pale and blue, and he was holding on to the railing tightly. The worries and ups and downs in his heart must have been as majestic as the ocean.
Until, until an hour later, the sun sets in the west.
"I hope that the soldiers you have trained well will be as good as ten, and they will be so sharp and fierce that I will be speechless."
It is true that tens of thousands of Zhou troops poured into the North City, using the North-South Avenue as the main breakthrough point, and the partial divisions rushed to various side alleys and alleys. It was really a mercury-filled place, and there was no passage that was not passed by the Zhou troops.
However, the Song army, which only numbered more than 10,000 people, broke out with god-like fighting power. The Song army team, which formed a mandarin duck formation, took advantage of it like a fish in water in the street battle. Although they were small in number, they fought against the Zhou army in full force.
But he never broke through a street for the Zhou army.
The Zhou army, which was flooded with mercury, faced the Song army, which was defended by copper walls and iron walls. They were also beaten with blood on their heads.
The King of Song Dynasty was excited. He saw the dead corpses of Zhou troops, paved with blood! The guards in the city were excited. Zhu Shuai did what he said, they no longer had to 'die'!
No, I shouldn't say that. Death is not terrible. We have come to this point and death has long been taken for granted. But we can't die in vain. It would be a great loss if Zhu Shuai destroyed the city wall and died like this.
.
Now, this worry has been put away by them.
To the north of Bozhou, there was a stalemate between the Zhou army and the Tang army. The confrontation changed at this moment.
Dang Shikui looked at the generals in the tent and said coldly to his men: "I have made my decision, and there is no reason to go back on it. If the emperor blames me, a certain family will bear the blame."
"We will attack the camp tonight. You can prepare later."
The king of Tang sent another 200,000 troops into the north, which was a naked threat. Dang Shikui would never want to see anything delay the outcome of Chengwu County, so preemptive strike was an excellent way.
Of course, there will be trouble in doing so. After all, the king of Tang has not rebelled yet. But the leader of the party is willing to bear that responsibility. He even thinks that the news of his own actions has been obtained from Longting in the imperial capital. As long as the battle can be won, the emperor will also
Would love to see that.
…
If we use the earth's modern timekeeping method, it would be about three o'clock in the morning, which is the time of the fifth watch. It is the time of the day when people are most relaxed and have no vigilance. Even the soldiers on the battlefield will often stare in confusion.
When it is safe, he will fall asleep and sleep soundly. To the east of Ji County, six or seven miles away from the camp of 100,000 Tang troops, there is a smooth road. Not to mention there are no hillsides, not even a grave mound. The moon is dark and the wind is blowing. I stretch out my hand.
There were no fingers visible, and there was silence in the vast wilderness. There was no movement. There was only the whistling of the wind, and the occasional faint sound. If it was there or not, it would be difficult to distinguish the authenticity.
But if you take a closer look, you will occasionally find something trembling slightly on the ground. It is actually a human head! This head is sometimes raised and sometimes buried. It seems to have been lying on the ground for a long time.
"There are dense sentries, but most of them are tired. Every half an hour, some sentries come out of the camp to patrol. I guess this team of rangers is about to go back." The head whispered. But in this wilderness
He was the only one in the wild. Who was he talking to? The lingering sound was still there, and he raised his head next to him and looked straight ahead.
About two or three miles away, there is a small camp. It is not large in scale, surrounded by fences and has a tall watchtower. Horses are placed across the front of the camp, and there are many pits. The camp is compactly built and has all kinds of fortifications. It is a large army.
The number of people in the sentry camp was not large, only three thousand, but it was firmly blocked on one side of the Tang army's camp. This method of setting up camp was based on the sophisticated skills of soldiers and horses.
"It's a tough nut to crack." The newcomer muttered in a low voice. "But it doesn't matter, the Tang army never expected that our army would take action at this time.
When the fight begins, there are a large number of masters who will clear the obstacles first..." What he said later was swallowed up by this man. Because... among the sound of the wind, there was hidden the sound of hooves! Looking to the north, a small black belt was galloping forward.
The Tang Army's rangers are back! The two are only two stone's throw away!
Half an hour later.
"Retreat!" When one person saw the Tang Army's cavalry entering the camp, he immediately shouted in a low voice. After the words fell, a figure suddenly flashed from behind, left and right, five or six feet away from the two of them. The five of them gathered together and quietly headed west.
And left, disappearing into the night in a moment. The broken silence fell silent again, and everything returned to normal. But it was only a matter of time before I had a cup of tea. To the west of Tangying, a black wall was slowly moving.
When I got closer, I could see the clues. What kind of black wall was this? It was clearly cavalry leading horses on foot! This army was very large, with a strength of around 20,000 to 30,000 people, but not a single sound was heard from the horses.
The army was even integrated with the night. If it weren't for the movement, it would be impossible to distinguish it. In the huge army, only the sound of heavy breathing and the trampling of mud could be heard! Yes, it had just rained here in Ji County.
The people walking in front suddenly stopped. The general raised his hands and ordered in a low voice: "Stop advancing!" The soldiers behind him quickly sent the message. After a while, the army stopped moving, waiting for the order.
But it was the five figures in the lead who came to the army and horses and reported to the general in detail the movements of the Tang army that they had detected.
"These traitors deserve death. Our army is already within ten miles of the sentry camp, and they haven't even noticed any signs. God bless us and the thieves." The man's voice was mixed with excitement and expectation.
"Well, it will take some time for Tang Niyouqi to come out. Now is the opportunity! But you have also heard the reports from the scouts. Whether it is the main camp or the outpost camp, the Tang army has many traps and traps around it.
You have to be careful." This was clearly the voice of Dang Shikui! In the night, his face could not be seen clearly, only the faint twinkling light in his two eyes could be seen!
"It doesn't matter. With the sharp soldiers in front, Lei Kun and I will move north and south and break through his camp with ease. The governor can command the infantry to wait for the opportunity!" It could be heard that the leading cavalry general was full of confidence.
Dang Shikui didn't say anything more. When the cavalry general saw him, he called his deputy Lei Kun, quickly got on the horse, and ordered in a deep voice: "Brothers, mount the horse!" The military order was passed on the wind. In the blink of an eye, countless battles took place under the night sky.
Hear the sound and move!
"Wu Jingxian, Zhang Zhongfa. Prepare to attack!" After the cavalry of the Zhou army, there were even more infantry groups following.
Wu Jingxian and Zhang Zhongfa were both generals in the army.
"The last general takes orders!" Dang Shikui had two more generals clasping his fists next to him to receive the order. After saying these words, the two generals got on their horses, lifted the reins, and the horses were tied to their mouths so that they could not neigh, but they immediately stood up!
"Brothers, kill—" Wu Jingxian held up his moon-covering knife and roared like a tiger.
Above the wilderness, the sound of killing shook the sky, piercing the night sky like thunder!
Twenty to thirty thousand cavalry were dispatched, and one hundred thousand horse hooves trampled the ground, causing a roar like a tsunami! But the cavalry was divided into two places, one in the south and one in the north, and rushed forward! The ground was muddy, restricting the horses, but six or seven
The land here can still be reached in the blink of an eye!
In the sentry camp of the Tang Army, on the watchtower, the night watchmen with long bows on their backs and sabers hanging on their waists suddenly heard the sound of hoofbeats and were frightened. They saw two groups of cavalry rushing toward the southwest of the camp! Their expressions changed at the same time.
Fei took off his long bow and shot out a sharp arrow. At the same time, he roared loudly! His companions beside him also banged the gong on the watchtower like crazy.
"Dang, clang, clang, clang, clang..." The screams and the sound of gongs startled countless Tang soldiers in the camp! Immediately, soldiers ran out of the camp and looked around! At this moment, a loud noise was heard
! The soldiers in the outpost camp all looked to the southwest, only to see that the foot-high fence collapsed. Dozens of martial arts masters with bodies as fast as lightning, swords and swords flying horizontally. Overflowing with strength, antlers and horses were destroyed by their hands.
The Zhou army cavalry armed with broadswords and spears then broke into the camp from the left and the right! But before they could recover, they heard the commotion coming from the camp to the east!
Zhou Jun robbed the camp! Someone finally reacted!
But why did the Zhou army dare to suddenly provoke a fight? Don't they know that the King of Tang did not resist? The reality no longer allowed them to think too much. They rushed into the enemy camp, stabbed everyone they saw, and provoked them when they saw the tent. From a deep sleep
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who had just woken up hurriedly came out of the tent, and were either shot in the chest and abdomen with an arrow, or chopped on the head with a knife. They were in complete chaos. The outpost camp that was still peaceful until now was suddenly in ruins!
There were 20,000 to 30,000 Zhou cavalrymen in the surprise attack, but only 3,000 Tang Army cavalrymen were in the sentry camp. Although a large number of Zhou cavalry troops lined up in the south and north to block the sentry camp, there were still two Zhou cavalrymen who entered the camp.
There were as many as a thousand, and soon the three thousand Tang soldiers in the camp were either dead or surrendered. The outpost camp was destroyed!
However, the ambitious King of the Tang Dynasty dared to covet the great treasure, and he also put great effort into training the troops in his hands. When a large number of Zhou troops rushed towards the Tang army camp, a group of sentry riders in the camp were the first to react.
There were only a few dozen riders, but they drove their horses and raised their swords to meet him without any fear!
Facing the huge crowd of Zhou cavalry, their counterattack was just an imperceptible small wave, and was soon trampled into pieces by Zhou cavalry. However, their courage and morale were commendable, but they were not fake at all.
Hundreds of masters attacked, and the solid gate of the Tang army's camp was broken like tissue paper. The gate, fence, and antlers were all broken into pieces. The Zhou army rushed into the Tang army's camp without any delay.
The camp was in chaos, with the Tang and Zhou armies fighting for their lives. The loud sound of the horn broke the silence of the night and echoed over the Tang army's camp!
Five miles away, Dang Shikui's army was approaching in a stroll. The soldiers had already lit torches, illuminating the surroundings like daylight. The cavalry just now had a large number of people, but at this time, behind Dang Shikui, there were actually three to five
Tens of thousands of people! Tonight, it can be said that the party leader is out of his best!
All the Zhou army generals stared at the chaotic Tang army camp not far away with flashing eyes. Generals Wu Jingxian and Zhang Zhongfa lined up their troops on the left and right, agitated like fire, while the other generals were eager to try, with different expressions.
"Commander! I will lead the troops to rush in and chop Tang Ni's troops into pieces!" Xiang Zhenkui couldn't help but be impatient. Even the horse under his crotch was paddling its hooves. The Zhangba snake spear in his hand was illuminated by the firelight.
, dazzling edge!
Dang Shikui ignored the request of his top general to fight. He looked at the Tang army camp in the distance, where people and horses were mixed together, and the sounds of killing were heard. However, the cavalry that had invaded the camp had not yet been able to advance into the central army. The king of Tang had ulterior motives, so he decided to
It's not that there is no real information. The Tang army was attacked late at night, but they organized a counterattack so quickly. They can really be called elite!
Taking a deep breath, he shouted loudly: "Wu Jingxian, Zhang Zhongfa!"
"The last general is here!" the second general roared like thunder.
Without a word of nonsense, Dang Shikui raised his right hand and swung it forward. Wu Jingxian and Zhang Zhongfa gave a knowing fist and immediately ordered the soldiers to attack the Tang army camp. Twelve thousand heavy-armored infantry troops, carrying swords and shields, joined forces.
Run forward.
"Kill, kill me -" Shangguan Renqing, the general of the Tang army's central army, roared furiously.
After hunting geese all day long, he was pecked in the eye by geese, and was sneak attacked by the troops led by Dang Shikui. How could this not make Shangguan Renqing, who regarded himself as a wise general, furious?
So much so that Shangguan Renqing was still a little unbelievable after commanding the troops and horses to stabilize the position. Is Dang Shi leader crazy? He actually raised troops to attack himself at this time. Does he want to immediately provoke an all-out war with the Tang army? Or has he already possessed the power?
A secret order from Beijing?
——The Emperor is now preparing to go to war with the King of Tang?
Shangguan Renqingyou had no choice but to think this way, because he had no idea how bold Dang Shikui would be if he made a surprise attack tonight and made his own decisions.
It can scare people to death!
The swordsmen and spearmen from the two battalion heads rushed into the Tang Army's camp. Wu Jingxian and Zhang Zhongfa led their troops to separate from the main force and quickly gathered together to form an overall military formation and attacked the Tang Army's camp head-on. Anyway, the Tang Army's camp
The fences, camp gates, horse guns and other items were destroyed, and more than 10,000 Zhou troops could directly rush into it from the front.
