Chapter four hundred and seventy seventh death battle
Seeing the Qiang people retreating, the militia soldiers on the city wall roared together. This was a roar of victory and a compliment for themselves.
The militia used their own lives and their never-say-die fighting spirit to defeat the Qiang people, defended the ancient city of Jiuyuan, and also defended the undefeated legend written by the Jizhou soldiers with their lives and courage.
"Come on, I haven't killed enough yet."
"That's right, if there are a few more, my knife is not dull yet, and I will chop off at least dozens more heads."
"Haha, I can still move my arm with the chop, who wants to die?"
Seeing the militiamen covered in blood and still roaring outside the city, Gao Shun felt a little proud for the first time. He also understood why Lu Bu failed and why Yuan Shu was invincible and invincible.
The militia is just a reserve group in the Jizhou Army, but they all have such a strong will to fight. So how strong will the main army be? With such an army, how can Lu Bu, Zhang Yang, and Gongsun Zan win? Yuan Shu really wants to lose the capital.
It's difficult.
"General, these people are so scary."
Seeing the corpses scattered all over the city, not only the Qiang people were afraid, but the captain also felt sad.
"This is the military spirit, the unique military spirit of the Jizhou Army. It never gives up no matter the good or bad times. And we are now a member of the Jizhou Army, so I hope the brothers will hurry up and integrate into it."
Gao Shun's voice was a little low when he spoke. He very much hoped that Lu Bu's surrendered army could be integrated into the Jizhou army as soon as possible.
"I see."
The captain nodded, with a hint of hope in his eyes.
Today's Qiang people have also learned wisely and did not attack again after experiencing this failure, because their morale was greatly affected and they were frightened by the crazy fighting spirit of the militia.
As time went on in the afternoon, the Qiang people launched another attack, but the result was the same. The militiamen had high fighting spirit and were still unafraid of death and carried out mass killings. However, the Qiang people obviously had not recovered yet and were somewhat helpless in fighting. After a short battle, they again
It ended hastily, and in the end he raised his horse's hooves and left Jiuyuan City's sight.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Gao Shun looked at Yuan Ping, the militia captain who was covered in blood, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
"General, these are what we should do. Although the militia is not a regular army, we still follow the requirements of the main force."
Yuan Ping gave Gao Shun a bloody smile.
"Well, go down and rest. Tomorrow's battle will be even more fierce."
Gao Shunchong nodded to Yuan Ping, "Don't be arrogant when you win, and don't be discouraged when you lose. That's good."
"promise."
The fighting on the second day was extremely brutal. More than 3,000 Qiang people died in the battle, and almost everyone was injured. However, the results were also great. The Qiang people suffered nearly 9,000 casualties and countless injuries.
In the two days of fighting, nearly 20,000 Qiang people were killed and nearly 10,000 wounded. It can be said that of their 60,000 cavalry, only about 30,000 were left with combat effectiveness, and their strength was reduced by nearly 50%.
"Military advisor, it's been two days. Jiuyuan City has been guarded for two days."
Zhao Yun passed the battle report to Xun You's ears.
"Well, in two days, at least 15,000 Qiang people will die in battle, and there will be thousands of casualties. Let's go down and prepare the army to encircle and suppress the Qiang coalition tomorrow."
According to Xun You's estimation, the strength of the Qiang people has been greatly reduced, and it is time to send out troops.
"promise."
As the sun rose on the third day, the Qiang people arrived as promised, but they did not attack the city immediately. Instead, they sent a waiter to ride a horse to the city.
"Don't shoot the arrow."
Looking at the soldiers bending their bows at the top of the city, the envoy couldn't help but tremble.
"What are you going to do?"
Upon hearing Chengtou's inquiry, the envoy felt as if he had come to grant me a general amnesty.
"I am the messenger Bono. I have something to discuss with your general."
While Bono was speaking, Gao Shun also appeared in front of the envoy.
"I am Gao Shun, the trapped general. I have nothing to talk to you about."
Sensing Gao Shun's cold attitude, sweat appeared on Bono's forehead again. He had not forgotten the Qiang people who were shot and killed on the first day.
"General, you have seen that we have been fighting for the past two days. There is no doubt about the bravery of our Qiang people. Your casualties must be huge.
Isn't there a saying among the Han people? God has the virtue of a good life.
So as long as you are willing to open the city and let us take away the stored grain, we will ensure the safety of you and the people in the city, and after taking away the grain, Jiuyuan City will be returned to you intact, how about it?"
Bono swallowed and said everything he wanted to say.
"It's shameless to say that you Qiang people are brave, but are my warriors inferior? Our army suffered heavy casualties, but will your casualties be less?"
Gao Shun gave Bono a sneer.
"General, we do have a few casualties, but we still have tens of thousands of warriors who can fight. It is only a matter of time before the city is broken. If you resist stubbornly, the blood will flow like a river when the city is broken.
It is unwise to do something you know clearly cannot be done. Even if you surrender, I believe your lord will not blame you."
Bono was still trying to persuade Gao Shun.
"I will spare your life this time. Go back and tell your leader that if you want Jiuyuan City, you will have to sacrifice your Qiang lives in exchange for it. As long as we have the last person left, you will never get on the city wall and get out."
When Bono heard Gao Shun's flowers, he turned around and ran back without any hesitation. He was afraid that he would also be shot to death by an arrow.
"collapse"
As soon as Bono turned around, he heard the sound of a bow on the top of the city. He shouted in his heart, "Heaven help me."
Unexpectedly, the arrow shot directly into the head of the war horse under his crotch. The war horse screamed and fell to the ground, and Bono was also crushed by the horse corpse.
"ah."
"my leg."
"Heaven."
Bono kept wailing under his horse.
"I said I would spare your life, but I didn't tell you to ride back on horseback. Now crawl back for me."
Gao Shun drew his bow and looked at Bonuo with a sneer. His mission now was not to repel or scare away the enemy, but to arouse the anger of the Qiang people so that they could continue to attack the city.
Hearing Gao Shun's words, Bonuo endured the pain, struggled to lift his horse up a small gap, pulled out and crawled towards the Qiang army.
After Bono crawled back, he narrated Gao Shun's words to several clan chiefs in an embellished manner. Looking at the miserable condition of his own people and listening to those unpleasant words, the desolate horns sounded in the sky again.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The Qiang people once again launched a new attack, rushing towards Jiuyuan City like a tide.
"Fire the arrow."
A new fight begins again, and the flower of blood blooms again.
Just when the Qiang people began to attack the city, Xun You and Zhao Yun also drove towards Jiuyuan City with 70,000 cavalry on rumbling horse hooves.
"Divide your troops into two groups, flank them on both sides, and don't let any enemy escape."
