When the first alarm bell rang, the entire team was still asleep.
The princes along the Yaochashui River do not have the habit of starting wars in winter, and the kings, ministers and common people do not think that the Tang army, which has only a thousand men, will be greedy and attack them. Although in recent times, the people in the city have
A group of fanatical Tianfang believers are gearing up every day, vowing to regain Zhezhe City and wash away the shame of Ju Che Bi Shi abandoning the city and fleeing.
However, another huge cracking sound followed, startling everyone from the bed. In the daze, no one knew what was happening outside. If the enemy was attacking, it would serve as an early warning.
The giant bell should have a unique rhythm when it is rung, instead of just two roars one after another like today. However, it is impossible for nothing to happen outside. According to the rules
Soldiers who raise the law of the country and sound the alarm indiscriminately will be tied to the tail of a war horse and dragged for ten miles. Even if the whole body is made of iron, it will be dragged into a pile of broken iron wire. Whoever lives impatiently will commit this crime
Kind of mean?
Could it be that the wind blew and broke the rope that tied the bell? But the bronze bell weighed more than three hundred kilograms at least. How strong the wind would have been to shake it? Could it be that those Tianfang Sect believers were fooling around again?
?Only they can ignore the law of Yu Juzhan. But what is their purpose of waking up the whole city? Do you think the people's curses behind their backs are not loud enough?
Before the people could recover from their shock and suspicion, in the cold wind in the early morning, there were suddenly several more shrill shouts, "The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking, the Tang bandits have entered the city, the Tang bandits have crawled into the city at night!"
"It's the Tang bandits, it's the Tang bandits, the Tang bandits who massacred Zhezhe City!"
Screams spread along the quiet streets, igniting fear in the hearts of all residents. The Tang people, the group of Tang people who led several coalition forces to destroy Zhezhe City some time ago! They fought to the death! They are coming
The fanatical believers of Tianfang Sect are here to settle accounts! Not satisfied after they looted Zhezhe City, they come to Juzhan again to kill people and set fire to them!
As one of the cities closest to Zhezhe, almost everyone in Juzhanti has heard about the fate of the people from neighboring countries after the city was broken. The entire outer city was divided, and both men, women, old people and children became slaves of the conquerors.
Even if he resisted a little, his head would be missing. Although the conquerors suddenly showed great mercy and allowed the people of Zhezhe City to pay for their own redemption, what about those who had no money? The conquerors had all their property stolen.
What should people do? Do they just work for their enemies all their lives? Watch helplessly as their enemies bully their wives and insult their children?
"Quickly, get your weapons and go to the city gate. Go to the city gate to help with the defense!" In the darkness before dawn, a few low-level officers jumped out of their yard with disheveled hair and shouted to the neighbors.
.
"Fight for the true God, and your soul can enter the kingdom of heaven after death!" Several fanatic followers of the Tianfang Sect also jumped out and bared their teeth behind the officers.
"Everyone, come together. Block the street entrance, don't let Tang Kou succeed!" Someone immediately responded loudly, pulled out the door latch, held it in his hand, and jumped onto the cold and empty street.
Torches were lit one by one in the courtyard near the city gate. Lanterns were set up at the entrance of the courtyard. In the high-walled courtyard and thatched cottages, countless men were barefoot and carrying weapons that could be used at home.
On the street, join the team closest to you.
Although this disaster was caused by the Tianfang cultists, the price of the city's destruction must be borne by everyone. At this moment, wives, children, and children are all stuck at home with nowhere to escape. No one can allow the disaster of Zhezhe City under any circumstances.
Let’s do it again in Juzhan! Go out quickly and fight with them. Anyway, you will die. Fight with them to the end!
"Quick, pick up weapons and block the street entrance!"
"Quick, the Tang bandits are about to come in. If they are men, pick them up quickly. Otherwise, we will end up like the people of Zhezhe City!"
After more than a month of repeated indoctrination by Bai Shaer, the Prime Minister of Zhezhe City, and others who had fled, the hostility towards the Tang Army had reached an extreme point. At the same time, the hatred towards the Tang Army had also reached an extreme point.
.So with a little incitement by a few people with ulterior motives, they gathered a large number of young and strong men. Everyone picked up their own commonly used weapons or tools and swarmed to the place where the alarm bell first sounded.
No matter what, we have to fight to the end. If we don’t fight, we will face the end of losing our wives and children. And even if we lose, the result will be the same as that of the people of Zhezhe City! Moreover, according to the words of the sage Bai Shaer who escaped from Zhezhe City, the Tang army
In fact, there are only a thousand people, but they are just good at conspiracy and tricks!
The swarming crowd soon blocked the narrow streets. The soldiers responsible for guarding the city gate were completely defeated under the joint attack of the Tang army and swordsmen from Song Wu's command. On the way to escape, they were blocked by the common people.
, quickly regained his courage, blushed, turned around and rushed towards the battlefield.
Juzhanti's unique street layout and the stone walls on both sides of the street made the battle scene increasingly chaotic. Soon, both the offensive and defensive sides fell into a state of anxiety. Hundreds of Tang soldiers, led by Song Wu,
They rushed over along the long street and tried to clear the way for the army. However, they were blocked by a group of Juzhanti defenders who turned around and came back. Behind that group of defenders were hundreds of fanatic followers of the Tianfang Sect. Take
Armed with all kinds of weapons, they blocked the entire long street with their bodies.
The Juzhanti people who came from all over the area at once were noisy and blocked several floors behind the fanatic believers. In the alleys on both sides of the long street, people who were incited continued to come in groups and used their bodies to
Block all possible roads.
As the general who led the elite troops to the city first, Song Wu's shortcomings of inexperience in battle were quickly exposed. He led his soldiers to charge repeatedly, and every time he attacked, he was able to overthrow more than a dozen defenders. But those dozen
After the defenders fell, the gap was quickly filled by new faces. Every face was filled with fear, and every face was filled with the determination to rather die than retreat.
In fact, the defenders had no way to retreat. The common people who came to support did not pose a threat to the Tang army, but they completely blocked the possibility of the defenders evading their responsibilities. They were their fellow villagers, standing in the cold dawn
In the wind, he watched them helplessly. Taking a step back would be equivalent to sending these people to Tang Jun's sword. In this life, they will never raise their heads again!
They surrounded and protected each other, refusing to give in even half a step. When one fell, another was quickly added. The narrow streets were soon filled with corpses. Blood flowed out from the wounds and quickly condensed into ice.
Then it was quickly painted with a thick layer of bright red.
The advance speed of the forward is getting slower and slower, and the road underfoot is getting slippery. At the city gate that has been opened, new Tang troops are constantly entering in groups. Behind Song Wu and others, they are crowded into a big ball. On the opposite side
At the entrance of Changjie, new defenders and civilians continued to arrive, forming layers of flesh-and-blood barriers.
If the Tang army wanted to follow the original attack plan and quickly capture the palace of Juzhanti city lord and capture the thieves and the king, they would have to climb over the courtyard walls of the people near the streets, or pass through some small, dark and nameless alleys.
The layout of Zhanti City cannot be like that of the Tang Dynasty, with streets and alleys, and no matter how you walk, you will not run into a dead end.
Dispersing troops in unfamiliar areas is definitely a taboo for military strategists. Moreover, street fighting is not what the Tang army is good at. Under Song Wu's hint, a few clever primary schools took their brothers around and divided their troops into nearby alleys to test. Soon, they
He stepped back with a frown. It was too narrow. I really don’t know what Juzhantiren was thinking. The passage between the two rows of courtyards was not wide enough for three men to walk side by side. What if someone blocked the entrance to the alley?
Live, then throw a few bundles of dry firewood down, and everyone will die with the enemy here.
The roundabout tactics were ineffective and he could only continue to move forward. Song Wu stamped his frozen feet and led the guards around him to fight towards the front line. The defenders on the opposite side found that Tang Kou was tossing and turning with just a few moves, and they also changed.
He became more and more confident. He first formed a circular formation to contain Song Wu's offensive, and then, under the leadership of a general wearing golden armor, he began to tentatively organize a counterattack.
The attacking and defending sides soon faced each other again, with swords and guns at the same time, and they were in a hurry. The newly arrived soldiers were because they had just been awakened, and their bodies had not yet moved, so their fighting movements were very jerky. The Tang army had traveled all night,
They were already at the end of their strength. Although they had anticipated almost all possible unexpected situations before this.
If the stalemate continues like this, the consequences may be disastrous. Song Wu was furious and gritted his teeth and attacked the opposite side again. General Jin Jia also came towards Song Wu under the protection of several close associates. Two waves of people came and went with swords and guns, causing chaos.
Make a pot of porridge..
At this moment, a wave of arrows suddenly flew out of the Tang army, passing over the heads of both warring parties, and falling directly on the people who followed. The people, who had high morale but did not have any armor to protect themselves, were immediately shot to pieces, and they were miserable.
The screams were endless. The defenders' movements froze for an instant, and then they completely fell into madness.
"Use feather arrows to clear the way and shoot at crowded places." Yu Wenzhi led dozens of archers to get behind Song Wu and quickly took over the command of the front line.
More feather arrows flew up, passing through the twilight clear sky, and fell into the crowd behind the defenders. The common people of Juzhanti and the fanatical believers of Tianfang Sect, who were supported by only a mouthful of blood, were shot to pieces.
All sorts of things.
And the Tang Dynasty's killing moves didn't stop there. Yu Wenzhi briefly glanced at the effect of the feather arrow attack, and gave the second order sternly, "Change the fire arrows. Set fire to the houses facing the street and light the way for the army!"
A group of swaying firebirds quickly rose into the sky, spreading their wings in the early morning glow. Wherever they passed, patches of orange-red light were splashed.
The people on the street completely collapsed, crying and rushing to their courtyards to fetch water to put out the fire. The jihadists of the Tianfang Sect forgot their heroic words, dropped their weapons, and fled away. The defenders were dispersed by their own people first.
Then they were defeated by Song Wu and others who were pushed along the long street. The princes of Yaochashui led their personal guards and followed the steps of the Tang army to rush into the city, jumped into the courtyards, and started a new round of crazy looting.
Several men resisted with wooden sticks, but were chopped up by the samurai and then decapitated with a knife. Several old men knelt down to beg for mercy, but were kicked away by the samurai. Several women fled in panic, and the samurai chased them from behind.
Hugging, falling, tearing off clothes...
"Keep pushing forward. Anyone who blocks the way will be killed without mercy!" Yu Wenzhi turned a blind eye to the robbery and killing happening under his nose, waved the scarlet general's flag, and issued a new order.
His family's experience told him that no matter how many innocent people died this morning, he would not be punished.
