He Qi, who was riding a tiger but couldn't get off, decided to give it a try and make a bet with Pang Tong.
This move naturally inspired the soldiers' strongest fighting spirit.
Seeing such a change, Pang Tong didn't say much. He just told the soldiers around him:
"It seems this is the battle."
"Military advisor...you mean..."
"Well, General Zhang Yan and General Wang Wu, prepare the fire arrows. When the opponent comes out of the city, they will immediately release the fire arrows to notify General Wei Yan behind the mountain -"
"Then...what about you, military advisor?"
Hearing what Pang Tong said, everyone was a little at a loss. It seemed that their goal was about to be achieved, but when they really faced this moment, everyone was a little confused about how to deal with the current situation...
Will they die?
It seems that everyone is going through this kind of questioning in their heart.
But after seeing Pang Tong's calm expression, the answer seemed to be ready to come out.
"All you have to do is trust General Wei Yan."
"Don't think about the consequences of failure. As for me?"
Pang Tong crossed his legs. The autumn wind above the battlefield carried a sweet smell of blood, and was a bit cold, causing some stinging pain on the body.
He smiled very naturally, brushed the dust off his legs, and lay down on the chair calmly:
"I only have one life. If I can really reverse our army's predicament in Jiangdong with this move, even if I really die here, so what?"
Pang Tong's consciousness is something that no one can easily understand.
He is as famous as Zhuge Liang, and his mind is one of the most precious assets of this era.
But when the words "death is not a pity" came out of his mouth, it happened to be so natural.
Perhaps that sentence is true, there is only one step between genius and madness - but at this moment, another explanation may be more appropriate.
——Those who have great righteousness will die generously.
It was precisely because he knew that Zhuge Liang, a close friend, was by Liu Bei's side that Pang Tong was willing to make such a decision.
He believed in Zhuge Liang just as he believed in his own ability.
The current situation of their army can be described as desperate.
He didn't know the current situation on Zhuge Liang's side, but just by looking at the layout of Poyang, he could basically figure it out - at least they were wrong to judge that the enemy did not dare to fight based on the details outside the city.
.
So it's similar to Poyang, so I'm afraid Zhuge Liang's side won't have a hard time either.
However, Pang Tong knew the difference between Zhuge Liang and himself... He had always been like this. When he was studying with Pang Degong, he would watch Kong Ming learn something, while he would learn the other side.
They are complementary, dragon and phoenix are also relative.
Only in Nirvana can the Phoenix emit the most dazzling light and heat, and now is the moment of Nirvana.
Wolong needs the fiery flames to help him soar into the sky, so he, Fengxiao, is willing to turn into firewood and doesn't mind making the flames even more dazzling.
Pang Tong's appearance was not outstanding, but his heart was clear, his ideals were pure, and his actions were direct.
If at this point in time, romance is an atmosphere that is incompatible with the battlefield, then Pang Tong must act to implement his ideals in the center of the battlefield.
And the same thing...serve the king, respect him and then eat him.
If you die for the Lord's goal, why not?
On the one hand, he was his best friend, and on the other hand, he had a master who truly appreciated him. Pang Tong felt that his life was brilliant enough.
It wouldn't be a bad idea to just burn it all out.
"Everyone, prepare to attack the city."
So in the end, Pang Tong just said these words calmly to the people around him.
The war drums sounded and the trumpets sounded.
Although it may be a battle with no return, Zhang Yan, Wang Wu and others still chose to charge after several inner struggles.
"kill!!!"
——
"General! They are coming to kill!"
"I know, let's fight! Everyone, for the sake of Poyang behind us, and for the sake of the entire Jiangdong! Use all your confidence!"
He Qi stood on the city wall, waved his hand, and announced to everyone.
And with his leadership, the spirit of the soldiers was completely different from before.
This battle lasted for two or three days. It can be said that only at this moment did the momentum of the two sides really match up.
Previously, it was Pang Tong's side who was suppressing He Qi's side. In wars, apart from the gap in troops and equipment, it also depends on which side is more powerful.
This head-to-head confrontation is enough to show which side really has the stronger strength.
It didn't take long for the first team of Pang Tong's army to quickly rush into the city. Once again, they planned to storm the city gate. Simple rams and battering rams took turns to attack Poyang's crumbling city gate.
But this time, Poyang's defenders did not sit still and wait for death. They instead began to quickly attack the enemy troops under the city who were attacking the city gate.
In just a moment, more than half of the team of nearly a hundred people had been killed or injured.
However, the enemy's offensive naturally cannot only be this short wave.
What followed one after another was the enemy's army ascending the city to fight——
Compared with the Battle of Xiangyang that year, Poyang's offense and defense seemed much evenly matched.
There was no black technology, just desperate hand-to-hand combat between the soldiers on both sides.
On the ladder frame, the soldiers of Pang Tongjun bravely carried huge rocks and rolling logs and marched crazily towards the top of the city wall.
On the city wall, Poyang's defenders spent all their resources to transport all the materials that could be transported in the city, causing as much damage to the enemy as possible.
But after all, the damage is still limited, and it is inevitable that some people will actually attack the city wall, but this time the situation is slightly different.
When a group of soldiers who were not afraid of death rushed to the city wall, they found that waiting for them was a burly general in silver robes.
He Qi - I have been waiting for this moment.
The soldiers on the city wall witnessed with their own eyes that He Qi killed dozens of enemies on the city wall in an instant, and their fighting spirit reached its peak.
And at this moment when the two sides were fighting hand to hand, the Stone Seal Mountain that Poyang City was leaning against also welcomed a group of uninvited guests...
——
Wei Yan was standing at the foot of the mountain at this moment.
Just as silent as he was standing at the foot of Dahua Mountain.
Some bad memories came to mind - in fact, Wei Yan was a person with a very strong psychological quality, but even so, the experience of repeated defeats was enough to make his courageous temperament hesitate.
but…
"Well... there are no footprints at the bottom of the mountain, but you can't be careless. Please wear your armor. I heard that wrapping your body with cowhide can reduce the impact of falling from the mountain... This time, I need you to go up the mountain with the determination to die. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
Several lieutenants nodded, and Liu Feng also agreed.
If things go well next, they can easily take down the unsuspecting Poyang City defense.
