The two men came to a circling battle and fought for more than ten rounds. Su Li secretly raised his finger in approval and said in his heart: "Okay! Gongsun Xu's marksmanship is really like Zuo Aoran's. It's also very skillful. It's a pity that he
He is not as strong as Zuo Aoran, and he does not have the foundation of Zuo Aoran."
At this time, the two horses met again, with big guns and steel forks at the same time. The two horses kicked "Bala" wrongly. Su Li took the lead, Gongsun Xu was at the bottom, and Su Li ran around the sloping mountain with the steel fork in his hand.
Gongsun Xu's weak side was pierced. Su Li wanted to push Gongsun Xu off the horse. Seeing that something was wrong, Gongsun Xu kicked off one leg, ducked down, and hid in the stirrup. He hid a little late.
At one point, the tip of the steel fork tore a hole in the robe, and the skin was scratched, and blood flowed out. At the same time, the fork also hung up the war horse, and the horse was in pain.
He screamed "Xi Liu" and ran back as soon as he crouched down. Seeing that the general was defeated, the thousand people watching the formation shouted "Wow~~!" and they were also defeated.
Su Li turned his horse and shouted: "Chase!" The Xianbei soldiers "hooted" and chased them. Then Su Li ordered his soldiers to set up chariots and attack the city. Although the Xianbei soldiers were from a nation on horseback, they
He was also able to fight on foot and knew some ways to attack the city. The infantrymen carried the ladders up to seize the city. Zhu Junke on the top of the city was frightened and asked the soldiers to throw ash bottles and cannons down.
Rolling logs, using stones, and firing bows and arrows, they finally drove back the Xianbei soldiers who were attacking the city.
Seeing that the siege of the city failed, Su Li shouted loudly: "Open fire from the artillery carts, knock down the city wall and attack us." The Xianbei soldiers below were busy and pushed up the catapult. The catapult was made of wood as a whole and the body was
There are two small drill reels at the bottom, supporting the cannon body. Although it is clumsy, the range is short, the power is not very powerful, and the lethality is also poor, but it is much more powerful than the broadsword and spear for siege. This is a professional
Siege weapon.
At this time, I saw Xianbei soldiers pushing three catapults to the gate of Lulongsai. They were busy moving and loading stones for a long time before they were ready. Su Li held an apricot yellow flag and rushed to the city.
Shouted: "Generals of the Han Dynasty, will you surrender or not? If you don't surrender, we will attack the city!" When the Xianbei soldiers were about to move the catapult forward, the Han soldiers were still firing cold arrows downwards, and the Xianbei soldiers used their shields.
Blocking his body, he pushed the catapult to the predetermined location.
At this time, when he heard that the cannon was about to be set off, all the city defenders ran away in fright. Zhu Jun was so frightened that he ran away a long time ago. Gongsun Xu bandaged his wounds, came to the top of the city gate, and shouted loudly down below
: "I, Gongsun Xu, will not surrender even if I die!"
Su Li waved his flag and ordered: "Attack the city!"
"Woo~!"
"Boom!"
Not much at first!
"Woo~!"
"Boom!"
Then there was another blow, six in a row, and the city wall was blown open. Suddenly, the city wall was filled with smoke and dust, and there was not even a single soldier on the Lulong Fortress!
Su Li shouted loudly to the soldiers under his command: "Charge in, break through Lulong fortress, and capture the Han army's general Zhu Jun alive!"
Dozens of generals under Su Li, led by the four tribal chiefs Mika, Queji, Tuoba Liwei and Nalou, attacked Lulongsai together. The four generals took the lead and crossed the moat. It was cold winter.
The water in the moat froze into very thick ice, which couldn't stop people at all!
When the Xianbei soldiers arrived at the pass, it was not easy to get up! Because there was only a gap in the city wall, and there was a very high half of the city wall below. The Xianbei soldiers simply couldn't rush through, so they had to control the gap and cover it.
The soldiers behind climbed the city.
Why not fire a few more times? Wouldn't all the guns be opened after a few more rounds? This thing is not that easy. Just transporting the cannon stones for throwing is a lot of effort. After throwing a cannon stone, you have to reload it.
At this time, the accuracy of the catapult is very low. If you put it ten times, you will only hit six or seven times. It is not only time-consuming but also labor-intensive.
Suli's catapults were shipped from Liangzhou. He bought six of them in total, and three of them were damaged during the process. Not only was this catapult outdated, but it had not been maintained for many years. It could almost be said that it was about to be scrapped. Besides,
Well, most of the catapults at that time were used to scare people. They were rarely used and were not used unless they had to. Every time they used catapults to attack a city, the souls of the soldiers defending the city would be scared away, and huge stones would fly away.
After going out, some of the soldiers guarding the city ran away and some died. It was not difficult to seize the city again. Today, with six "woo-woo" blows, the attack on the city began.
Mijia, Queji, and Tuoba were weak. The four generals led their troops just crossed the moat. Suddenly, the sound of killing broke out in the smoke. Countless Han soldiers appeared in the gap, each holding a bow and arrow and shouting: "Hold
The city will never surrender, and you will die for your country to protect your hometown!" The leader was Gongsun Zan's general Yan Gang!
The archers who hurriedly returned to the city and were ready for battle stood up, shouting, roaring, and howling. They drew their bows into the shape of a full moon. Their sharp arrows were already aimed at the stunned Xianbei under the city tower.
Soldiers and generals, then there was a "buzz" and "buzz" sound, and thousands of wolf-tooth feather arrows were poured down.
"Pfft~~"
"嗗~~"
"Ah~~"
"Ouch~~"
"Uh-huh..."
"Ah! My eyes!"
A shrill howl rang out from the foot of Guancheng into the night. In an instant, more than a hundred Xianbei soldiers fell to the rain of arrows. Under Yan Gang's command and dispatch, a burst of strong bows and crossbows killed the Xianbei soldiers.
Shot it back.
It turned out that when the catapult hurled stones just now, not many people were injured. When the first stone was thrown, some people were injured. General Yan Gang gave an order for the soldiers to hide under the city. After six huge stones, the flying stones flew up.
Some people were injured by the splashing gravel, but the rest were fine.
At this time, Yan Gang, Tian Kai, Tian Yu, Shan Jing, Zou Dan, Guan Jing and others were all here. At this time, Gongsun Xu came with Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan, Xia Houlan, Wang Men and others, but he didn't pay attention.
With wounds on his body, Gongsun Xu set an example and went to the battlefield in person. How could the soldiers dare to retreat?!
Gongsun Xu shouted: "Brothers, we must guard the gap. Once the city is lost, no one will survive!" As soon as the flying rocks stopped, Yan Gang was the first to rush to the top of the city, and the Han soldiers also came up, divided into three groups.
They took turns shooting arrows to fend off the Xianbei soldiers.
Seeing that Su Li had not succeeded in attacking for a long time, he suddenly got angry and shouted: "We must capture Lulongsai today. Anyone who retreats will be killed!" In this way, no one of Xianbei's soldiers dared to attack again.
Withdrew.
The battle started at three o'clock in the morning. It was past noon, and the Xianbei soldiers were still attacking the city. There were not many ash bottles, cannons, rolling logs, and stones on the city head, and the arrows were almost used up. What should I do?
After coming up with the idea, they hurriedly mobilized the people living under the city to demolish the houses. First, they brought bricks and tiles and wood to defend the city. When the peace came down, they paid according to the price. The people brought their children with them, crying and shouting, and became a mess.
.
Guan Jing saw that the Xianbei soldiers were almost close to attacking, so he called the young general Gongsun Xu down. He saw that Gongsun Xu was sweating profusely from exhaustion, his body was covered with dust, his face was covered with streaks, and Gongsun Xu's body was covered with blood.
He was injured again, and his lips were dry from thirst. Guan Jing looked at it, his heart became heavy for a while, and he hurriedly said to Gongsun Xu: "Young General, this is not possible! If we use up all the arrows today, what will we do tomorrow? We always keep guard.
, people are always attacking, so we have to have a retreat strategy!?"
"Guan Zhang Shi, how can I retreat my troops? I have no choice but to live and die with this city." Gongsun continued.
"No!" Guan Jing shook his head and said, "We have to find a way to kill them while we live."
"What method do you have?" Gongsun Xu asked.
"No!" Guan Jing sighed and said, "If you have Marshal Zuo in front of you, you won't be afraid of Su Li."
"Oh! Isn't this nonsense! If my uncle Zuo was still here, what else would he say? As long as my uncle Zuo's gun is standing here, he has nothing to fear! Even if he borrows Su Li's courage, he
I don’t dare to come either!” Gongsun continued.
"Why use that gun? As long as Marshal Zuo stands at the opening of the city, he will scare Su Li to death." Guan Jing said.
"It's useless to say this, the person is dead..." Gongsun Xugang just said this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he had a plan in his mind, and he hurriedly said: "Hey, Guan Chang Shi reminded me, let's come up with a delaying strategy
Bar!"
"What's the delaying strategy?" Guan Jing asked.
Gongsun Xu said: "Can you find someone who looks like my uncle from the Zuo family and let him put on armor and pretend to be my uncle from the Zuo family?"
"This is a good idea, but where can I find someone who looks the same as Marshal Zuo? No one in this world is the same as anyone else!? Besides, what can they do? This is dangerous!?" Guan Jing was happy first but then worried.
said.
At this time, a Blue Flag Primary School suddenly came to report: "The report to the Major General has learned that there is General Zuo Chun, a subordinate of Marshal Zuo, outside the pass asking for a meeting, saying that he is here to help guard the pass."
Gongsun Xu and Guan Jing were overjoyed when they heard that Zuo Aoran's generals had come to help guard the pass. Gongsun Xu hurriedly said: "Quick, quick, please come quickly. Oh! No, I'd better greet you in person! You open the door first
, invite people in."
At the same time as the door opened, Gongsun Xu and Guan Jing also felt the arrival. At this time, they saw a man and a horse riding in from outside the pass, followed closely by four generals, and then more than a dozen personal guards. At this time, they saw the leader.
Wearing a bright gold helmet, gold large-leaf dragon scale armor, a white dragon pony on his crotch, a blue flower face, and a slight beard under his chin. There are six flying forks inserted in the deerskin pouch on the back, with red silk tied behind the flying forks, and in his hands
Holding the five-pronged flame fork holding the sky.
Gongsun Xu hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his fists and said: "General Zuo has come a long way, and he has been tired all the way. He should have gone to the post house to rest first, but now the Xianbei soldiers are attacking the city hard. Seeing that Lulong fortress is about to be broken, please ask General Zuo."
Defend the city with me."
"Time is urgent, we have neglected the general, please forgive him." Guan Jing said from the side.
Zuo Chun clasped his fists on the horse and asked: "I wonder where General Gongsun is now? Who is this young general?" Zuo Chun was always very arrogant. Except for Zuo Aoran, he didn't take anyone else seriously.
, not to mention the young man and scribe in front of him.
When Gongsun Xu got angry, he stopped talking and snorted without saying anything. Guan Jing was also angry in his heart, but after all, literati were more civilized than military generals. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "This is my young master."
General Gongsun Xu, my lord is injured and Marshal Zhu is nowhere to be seen. Now the whole city is under the command of the young general."
When he heard that this young man was Gongsun Xu, the son of Gongsun Zan, Zuo Chun got off his horse and clasped his fists and said: "Zuo Chun, a common man, has seen the young general. I have offended you just now. Please forgive me. Chun thought the young general was Zhu Jun."
Where’s the bastard?!”
At this time, another soldier came to report that the Xianbei generals had attacked again. General Yan Gang had been injured by an arrow. Now he was locked up without anyone to command him. He also asked the major general to return quickly. After hearing this, Gongsun Xu turned pale and hurriedly
He rushed to the pass, and Zuo Chun followed closely behind with four generals: Zhao Rui, Shi Zuan, Xu Shang, and Zhuge Qian.
