Wang Fangyi disagreed: "Otherwise? As you said, we can't hold on with such a small force. The only difference is that we can delay a little longer and try to gain some time. I hope that General Gao Kan can quickly defeat Yuwen.
Longbu. But if the armored cavalry suddenly attacks, once the Changsun family’s private army is defeated...it will be a huge profit!"
More than just making big money?
That was simply an unparalleled achievement! A thousand armored cavalry defeated 60,000 rebels. I am afraid he is destined to go down in history... Tsk, tsk, this captain is not very old, but his ambition is quite big.
Liu Shenli licked his lips, suppressed the excitement in his heart, weighed the left and right, stroked his palms fiercely, nodded and said: "It's worth a fight!"
Seeing that he agreed, Wang Fangyi breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he is the commander of this army, he is transferred from the Anxi Army after all. He is unfamiliar with the place and his words may not be effective. Once Liu Shenli has a conservative personality and does not dare to take risks, then this idea is bound to be dead -
—You can’t have internal strife when the army is approaching, right?
Fortunately, Liu Shenli is also a bold person. After hearing this, instead of objecting, he strongly agreed and even volunteered: "If there is a chance to launch a surprise attack later, I will lead the team!"
Wang Fangyi smiled and said: "That's great!"
Not far ahead, a soldier was shot in the shoulder by a cold arrow. In pain, he did not block the rebels who were climbing up the ladder. He was slashed on the neck with a knife. Blood spurted out. The rebels also successfully climbed to the top of the city.
, achieved the feat of "getting there first", but before he could get a firm foothold, Wang Fangyi had already marked out with a single arrow step, and stabbed his rebels with a horizontal knife in his hand, and then drew the knife and kicked the rebel corpse.
Kick aside.
Wiping off the blood on his face, he said "Bah" and turned back to Liu Shenli and said: "It is a helpless move for the general to station us here. If we want to break the current passive situation, we can only join forces together."
, choose a group of rebels to attack hard. In fact, the commander-in-chief has already made the worst preparation for all of us to be killed and Changsun Jiaqing's troops to successfully occupy the Daming Palace... If we can fight to the death in a desperate situation
, dragging the eldest son Sun Jiaqing to the Yamato Gate, just imagine how gratified the commander will be?"
More than just a joy?
If this is true, I am afraid Fang Jun will be ecstatic!
The rebels are strong and powerful, and the two armies are advancing together. This poses a great threat to the Youtun Guards. If they are not careful, they will break into the camp, or even directly under the Xuanwu Gate. If that is the case, all the previous efforts
, countless sacrifices will be meaningless, the Xuanwu Gate is broken, and the fall of the East Palace is imminent. Even if Li Jing controls the Sixth Army of the East Palace, it will be difficult to recover.
But if the Yamato Gate really held back the eldest son Jiaqing, preventing him from occupying the Daming Palace, the situation would be turned upside down when Gao Kan defeated Yuwenlong and turned around to reinforce the Yamato Gate.
The East Palace no longer has to worry about the rebels seizing the back door of Xuanwu Gate. Instead, the rebels are afraid that the Youtun Guards will take advantage of the victory to pursue them and attack their main camp outside Tonghua Gate.
Offensive and defensive changes can only be made between the backhand and the palm of the hand.
Liu Shenli was so excited that he was gearing up and warned Wang Fangyi with his eyes: "We agreed that whenever there is a chance, I will equip my cavalry to go out of the city and raid, but you can't rob me!"
Wang Fangyi rolled his eyes: "Do I need to fight with you? Now in this Yamato Gate, I am the commander of an army. Have you ever heard of a commander charging into battle? Go ahead and I will watch the enemy formation for you. If you take it seriously
I will give you credit for severely injuring the rebels!"
"Bah! Damn it, coach, have you grown all your hair yet?"
Liu Shenli muttered, looking unhappy.
There is no way. Although this Wang Fangyi is not old and has a low official position, he is a close confidant of the Marshal. He was personally brought back from the Western Regions and entrusted with important tasks. How can I compare?
However, in the military, merit is used to determine superiority, and I am not incompetent. As long as I have made great achievements, won't I still be the commander-in-chief's confidant?
…
At the bottom of the city, looking at the soldiers who kept climbing up the city but being killed and retreated, the eldest son Jiaqing was filled with worry and anxiety.
It's just a few thousand defenders. If he can't take down the 60,000-strong army in one go, where will his face be? It's not even just a matter of face. The two armies marched together, and almost all the rebels outside the city were mobilized.
If the main force is blocked from the Daming Palace and cannot completely capture Longshouyuan, which occupies the northern part of Chang'an, and Yuwenlong loses to Gao Kan or is even completely defeated, then Guanlong will soon
The situation we have to face is simply unimaginable.
It is no longer a question of one person taking responsibility, because it involves the future of the entire Guanlong clan and the lives of countless Guanlong disciples, and no one can afford that responsibility...
"Continue the attack and attack the city at any cost! Supervise the formation of the battle line, but if there is a push from behind, there will be no mercy!"
"Charge up, charge up! Where is the arrow tower? Push it to the bottom of the city and suppress the defenders on the city."
Changsun Jiaqing was furious, and constantly commanded his soldiers to charge at the risk of death, and captured the Daming Palace. Then the entire Longshou Plain was under control, and the location of Longshou Plain was occupied, and the Youtun Guards would no longer be as stable as before. All they had to do was send cavalry on their own.
As Longshou Yuan went down, it was difficult for the Right Guards to resist.
Xuanwumen was also placed under the front of the Guanlong army.
But if we can't take the Daming Palace, we'll be in big trouble...
However, not all soldiers can understand the current situation in Guanzhong. What's more, even if they can understand, what does it have to do with slaves like them? They are the slaves of the Changsun family now. If the Changsun family falls in the future, they will just become someone else.
The servants of the family, the children and grandchildren working for them, there is not much difference at the moment.
The most important thing is that even if you can only be reduced to a slave or a slave, you still have a life to sell, right? If you lose your life, the parents, wives and children at home will be even more miserable...
If it weren't for the Changsun family's private army who rushed to the front as the backbone, and the supervising team behind them carrying bloody swords, I'm afraid most of the soldiers would have turned around and ran away at this moment, completely collapsing.
There were not many defenders on the city, but they were all brave and good at fighting. In addition, the thunderbolts were constantly thrown down, and soon there was a layer of corpses under the city. When the soldiers charged forward, they stepped on the corpse of Pao Ze, feeling in their hearts.
The fear and anger are beyond words.
Morale is inevitably low, and as the battle drags on, this fear will become more and more concentrated, until the soldiers are overwhelmed and have a complete psychological collapse...
The eldest son, Jiaqing, had led the army for many years, so he could naturally see that the current situation of the army was extremely unstable, so he became more and more eager to conquer the Yamato Gate and occupy the entire Daming Palace.
He kept urging the army to charge, and even sent his own troops to attack. More than 60,000 people performed their duties and all participated in the siege. He didn't even need the reserve team. He just wanted to capture Yamato Gate immediately to avoid a prolonged attack by the army.
The morale of the army was completely shattered.
…
The eastern sky has gradually become brighter.
After more than an hour of fierce fighting, mountains of corpses were piled up and down the Yamato Gate, and rivers of blood flowed. Both the attacking and defending sides suffered heavy casualties, and the defenders were short of troops. Killing one person in battle would weaken the defense of the city.
The city may only be in the next moment.
On the contrary, more than a thousand armored cavalry were always on standby inside the city gate. Even though the city was climbed several times by the rebels for fierce battles, and the rebels were driven back at great sacrifice, Wang Fangyi never allowed the armored cavalry to go up to the city to participate in the defense.
He knows that blind defense is useless. Even if a thousand more people join the defense of the large city wall, the inherent disadvantage will still be irreparable. In this case, it is better for the troops to take risks and take risks.
The armored cavalry held the reins and led the horses. They stood silently beside the horses, staring at the battle-torn city gate tower. The battle in their hearts was like a raging fire, but they had to be suppressed. Everyone knows
After understanding Wang Fangyi's intention, he naturally understood that if he wanted to defend the Yamato Gate, pure defense would not work. The greatest hope was whether these armored cavalry could deliver a fatal blow to the rebels.
Everyone knows that they shoulder the heavy responsibility of guarding the Youtunwei camp. Once the Daming Palace falls, all the robes will face the condescending charge of the rebel cavalry, and even the impregnable Xuanwu Gate will fall one after another. The commander-in-chief's final decision
The ending will also be death in battle.
Therefore, the cavalrymen stood silently at the foot of the city without saying a word, not letting their physical strength go to waste. All the strength was accumulated in their bodies, and they only waited for the moment the city gate opened, then they got on their horses and used
Try your best to rush out and hit the rebels hard!
They will never allow the worst scenario to happen. Even if they fight to the last drop of their blood, they still vow to defeat the rebels and defend the Yamato Gate!
Suddenly, a group of soldiers rushed down from the city, went straight to the city gate, removed the heavy door latch, and slowly pushed the city gate open a gap...
A team quickly came to the front of the armored cavalry and shouted: "The captain has given the order, the cavalry will attack, break the enemy's formation, and go straight to the Chinese army!"
"Wow!"
More than a thousand people jumped on their horses at the same time. They had been waiting for a long time. Their movements were uniform and fast. They didn't even want to waste their energy in speaking. They rode forward one after another. When the city gate opened, the rebels outside the city suddenly shouted to kill.
The volume increased several times, and when it vibrated the eardrums, it accelerated violently, and rushed away from the city gate like a torrent.
