The battle on the city wall immediately fell into a stalemate. Although the armor on the soldiers was thick, it could not withstand the desperate bandits. The bandits, who knew they would die, used knives, sticks, and even their hands as weapons. They would rather receive a fatal blow than
We must fight to the death with our opponents. From time to time, soldiers from both sides hug each other and fall from the top of the city, and the screams are endless.
The guerrilla general Hou Qiao only lasted one more cup of tea than Deng Yuan before he was forced off the city. He had better luck. When he fell, he caught the edge of the ladder with his legs and quickly followed the smooth wooden pole.
Sliding down, although the armor and flesh on the thighs were worn to pieces, there was no danger of life in the end. The other soldiers who followed the two generals to the city did not have such good luck, as long as they were holding the linen
If the rescuers failed to take care of them, they would inevitably die when they were pushed off the city wall. But when they stayed on the top of the city, their opponents' desperate viciousness made their livers and gallbladders break.
Someone tried to retreat to the siege ladder, but the way was blocked by the newly killed companions. As soon as the bandits succeeded in attacking, they immediately shouted and surrounded the siege ladder from all directions. In order to avoid being used as targets by the opponent's archers, they stayed close to the officers and soldiers.
Extremely close. This made the battle more brutal. Sometimes both sides inserted their weapons into their opponents' bodies almost at the same time, and then looked at each other until the end of their lives. The soldiers on both sides immediately pushed the bodies of the fallen away.
, slashing the sword in his hand at an enemy he has never met before, fighting to the death.
A captain jumped onto the city wall, and before he could stand upright, a five-foot-long slapping knife swept over him. The unlucky captain couldn't dodge, and the slapping knife hit his soft ribs. There was a "pop" of blood.
Lao Gao was splashed, and the captain was surprised to see himself flying up, and then screamed, and his entire upper body fell from the top of the city. The bandit leader who succeeded in the sneak attack laughed loudly, raised his sword high and shouted to invite a fight. The archers below the city quickly caught it
Seizing the opportunity, the next moment, the little boss was filled with arrows. He shook, but refused to fall. With his last breath, he dug the handle of the knife into the mud brick and supported himself with the knife shaft.
Body.
"Push them down!" Gao Shida shouted from the city wall. There was blood on his body at this moment, but the expression on his face became more and more crazy. The minions following him were as fierce as the master, and they danced with swords like
Like a wheel, anyone who blocks it is invincible. The soldiers in front of a siege ladder were chopped down in an instant. Several minions held the top of the ladder on their shoulders and pushed it forward. The siege ladder with a wooden base below was
It was difficult to be pushed down. The minions were so suppressed that their faces turned red and they were unyielding. Several cold arrows were fired at them, turning them all into hedgehogs.
"Put down the rolling logs!" Someone reminded loudly. In the blink of an eye, dozens of huge rolling logs were lifted up by the minions and pushed down the siege ladder. The officers and soldiers who were swarming up could not dodge, one after another.
He was swept down from the siege ladder by a rolling log, his body cracked, his tendons were broken and his bones were broken.
There is no need to be taught the skills of killing people. The bandits soon learned the use of the city defense equipment without any teacher. Large pieces of stone and nail rackets with chains tied to the tails fell down at random, and each wave would take them away.
Several lives. While the officers and soldiers were in a hurry, someone threw a torch at the bottom of the siege ladder. Thick smoke immediately rose from the wooden supports, blocking the sight of the archers and blocking the soldiers below the city from continuing to climb up.
channel.
"Beat the drum, beat the drum!" Yang Yichen was furious with his opponent's strength and kept ordering his soldiers to beat the drum to encourage the battle. Last night, we learned from the prisoners that the number of bandits trapped in the city with Gao Shida was less than 30,000.
.So he decided to surround and annihilate this group of thieves. Unexpectedly, Gao Shida bit back when he was about to die, causing unexpected losses to his soldiers.
"Commander, please ask the Boling Army to attack in advance!" Hou Qiao, who was lucky enough to save his life, limped to Yang Yichen and suggested in a low voice.
"Let's attack again!" Yang Yichen shook his head and responded with a straight face. "The battles in the past few days have mainly been fought by the Boling Army. We can't make the main attack for the first time and be underestimated!"
"Commander, are you afraid that something will happen to General Li?" Hou Qiao knew that Yang Yichen was not a competitive person, so he guessed his true thoughts very understandingly.
"You know why you still ask?" Yang Yichen raised his eyebrows and stared back at what Hou Qiao wanted to say next.
It was Yang Yichen's own idea that his subordinate soldiers should be the main attacker. From the performance of the Boling Army in recent days, the old general could see that Li Xu was emotionally unstable, so he did not want the young man to be harmed due to a moment of negligence.
In Yang Yichen's view, being cruel, easy to kill, or compassionate are all methods used by generals. Only by relying on these methods that are difficult for ordinary people to understand, can they establish their own illustrious reputation and make the enemy chaotic without fighting.
.The sudden change from kindness to cruelty is beyond the means. This means that the general has lost his position and it is easy for his opponent to find an opportunity to take advantage of him.
The old general understood Li Xu's reaction. If he were in the same position as Li Xu, he thought that he would also be in chaos. From the perspective of a bystander, Zhang Xutuo was no different from Li Xu's mentor, who solved the doubts of his critics.
.No matter who suddenly hears the tragic news of the death of his mentor and enemy friend, his heart will be shocked.
But Yang Yichen couldn't comfort Li Xu, and he didn't want to give Li Xu more advice as an elder. Everyone needs to go through some difficult obstacles on the road to growth, and others can't help him. Only they can figure it out.
Only by raising your head in the midst of chaos and sinking can you move to a higher level.
The exciting drum sound of "Long-Long-Long" reawakened the courage of the soldiers. Through a new round of bow and arrow shooting, they once again took the initiative on the battlefield. After simple maintenance of the siege vehicle,
Yang Yichen's favorite general Zhou Yu led more than a thousand warriors and launched a new attack on Wulu.
This time, he learned from the experience of his colleagues and controlled the rhythm of the attack very carefully. Whenever the soldiers climbed a few steps, he would use the horn to notify everyone to stop, and then ordered the archers to "clean up" both sides of the siege ladder again.
". After doing this for more than ten times, until he was sure that there was no ambush behind the wall, he suddenly gave the order, and the soldiers who had already lost most of their lives swarmed forward.
More than a hundred soldiers jumped onto the city wall one after another and quickly formed a small formation to protect the siege ladder behind them. This was the regular tactic of the soldiers. As long as the passage behind them was held for half a stick of incense, they would kill the brothers who came to the top of the city one after another.
They will occupy the entire section of the city wall. When the number of brothers who attack the city is enough to organize an attack array on the city wall, today's battle will be concluded.
The joy of the soldiers only lasted for three breaths. Soon, they were surprised to hear the rustling wind above their heads. The bandits who retreated to the horse path and the enemy tower held rifles in hand and shot rows of feather arrows at the attackers.
Come. There is no cover on the flat city top. The first round of volleys shot down most of the government soldiers who climbed onto the city head. Immediately afterwards, the bandits on the horse road and in the enemy towers formed two small groups.
, one team erected large door panels outside, and the other team was protected by the door panels inside and rushed towards the siege ladder.
The rhythm of the attack was disrupted again, and the soldiers who jumped on the top of the city were quickly surrounded. With a numerical disadvantage and insufficient preparation in advance, they were forced to retreat step by step. With the subsequent risk of death, Bao Ze
With support, they could barely occupy a palm-sized space in front of the siege ladder.
And the place as big as a palm soon turned into a soul seduction rope in the hands of Black and White Wuchang. New soldiers and brothers kept jumping up, and the souls of those who stepped on the city first were constantly being snatched away. General Xuanwei Zhou Yu saw it with two eyes.
He was furious and personally led several guards to participate in the attack. With his extraordinary skill, he expanded the foothold under his feet to be able to stand six brothers. But his personal bravery could only do so, and the remaining siege ladders
The previous battle ended in the blink of an eye. The soldiers who rushed to the top of the city were either killed on the spot or pushed off the city wall. No one was spared.
The bandits who had taken back the initiative on the battlefield suffered numerous losses. They filled a large pot with boiling water and poured it on their heads at the position of the siege ladder. The soldiers who were blocked on the siege ladder were either scalded alive by the boiling water, or
He lost his footing and fell. The corpses were one after another. They were beyond recognition and too miserable to look at.
"Come, come!" Zhou Yu ordered loudly, calling on his soldiers to gather around him along the only passage connecting the upper and lower walls of the city. Seeing that their generals were like crazy tigers, the soldiers also risked their lives to kill the bandits.
Then they surrounded him from both sides and stabbed and chopped at random with their spears and knives.
This section of the city wall immediately became the focus of everyone's attention. The warriors below the city continued to fill the gaps, trying to preserve the only remaining victory. The bandits on the city vowed to block this only gap and would never let the officers and soldiers attack again.
Expand the results.
One of the minions screamed and rushed forward. Zhou Yu used the blade of his sword to directly deflect his weight, and then kicked him out from the inside of the city wall. The minions screamed and fell, and the dull sound of his body hitting the ground made everyone blush.
They were extremely pale. But the pale-faced bandits refused to turn around and run for their lives. Their screams became more desperate, but their eyes showed determination. Two of the minions fell down one after another with swords, and Zhou Yu's face was also splashed with his own blood.
The blood of the personal guard. One of the personal soldiers blocked his knife with his chest, then hugged his opponent tightly and rolled down the inside of the city wall together.
"Come here!" Zhou Yu shouted, and swung off half of his opponent's head with a knife. Then he strode forward and kicked a minion directly in the lower abdomen with his iron-wrapped combat boots. The minion's body
His body immediately turned into shrimp, and blood flowed out from his nostrils, mouth, and ears at the same time.
At this moment, a certain corpse that had fallen on the city wall suddenly moved, and opened its arms to hug Zhou Yu's other leg. "Go to hell!" The warrior Zhou Yu swung his sword downwards, cutting off the enemy's arms.
The elbow was cut off. He straightened up quickly and swung the blade horizontally, trying to push back the person who took the opportunity to get close to him. However, he was shocked to see that several minions worked together to hold a wooden stake about a foot thick and directly hit him.
come over.
"Bang!" General Xuanwei Zhou Yu hurriedly raised his weapon and blocked it in front of him. Then he saw his hundred-smelting steel knife bent into a fishhook, and then he saw the city wall under his feet getting farther and farther away from him, and the sunlight above his head
It’s getting brighter and brighter, so warm that people can’t help but close their eyes. (To be continued)
