Xue Rong was not affected by the coalition's division of troops tactics. Instead, he took advantage of the opportunity of the coalition's division of troops and chose to storm the camp where only the Feng Army was stationed. ("")
The reaction of the Sichuan-Huan coalition forces surprised Tang Yin. After receiving the news of the enemy's massive attack, he immediately called Liang Qi and Ziying to discuss countermeasures with them.
Liang Qi and Ziying seemed to have been prepared, and said to Tang Yin calmly: "Our army's camp is strong. Even if the enemy army comes in full force to attack, they may not be able to break through our defense. Your Majesty should immediately send a message to Yujun."
He'an Army, after the two armies capture Anyang and Fengyang, they need to immediately attack Huaiyang. As long as Huaiyang is captured again, the enemy's logistical supplies will be cut off, and the enemy will be in chaos without fighting."
Listening to their boastful talk, Tang Yin gradually raised his eyebrows and asked: "How long will it take for the Yu and An armies to capture Anyang, Fengyang and Huaiyang one after another? Even if the enemies in the city are defeated without a fight.
To escape, the journey alone will take ten days, but now can our army withstand the enemy's force for ten days?"
Liang Qi and Ziying looked at each other and said in unison: "As long as your Majesty is here, our soldiers will fight with blood and fight the enemy to the death!"
Tang Yin smiled bitterly upon hearing this, saying that he did not say anything. If the difference in combat power between the two sides is too great, it may not be possible to make up for it with willpower and fighting spirit.
But now that the matter has come to this, there is no point in blaming them. Tang Yin can only follow their suggestions, find Ai Jia, ask the underground network spies to release the falcons, and send messages to Yu Jun and An Jun separately.
Let's talk about the Sichuan and Huan armies. They began to line up about a mile away from Feng Camp. A large number of soldiers pushed heavy trebuchets to the front of the camp until they were only 200 steps away from Feng Camp.
It stopped when it was far away.
The distance of two hundred steps was already within the range of the heavy trebuchet. I saw a large number of Sichuan soldiers and Huan soldiers driving carriages and stacking hundreds of thousands of stone bullets on the trebuchet.
about.("")
The reason why their actions were not completed behind their own camp, but in front of the formation, was mainly to allow the Feng Army in the opposite camp to see clearly their determination for this battle, and also to cause psychological damage to the Feng Army.
pressure.
After all the arrangements for the heavy-duty trebuchet were completed, Xue Rong smiled and waved the command flag in his hand calmly.
As his command flag waved, the drums in the Sichuan Army suddenly started beating. At first, the numbers could be distinguished, but soon, the drums sounded like popping beans.
The drums sounded, and the whole army advanced. The first thing standing at the front of the Sichuan army was the archery tower. Each archery tower was three feet high, with wheels below and archers on top. When advancing, there were Sichuan troops pushing behind the archery towers, and there were also Sichuan troops behind them.
The front of the watchtower is pulled by ropes.
Looking around, there are four to five arrow towers in front of each small phalanx of the Sichuan Army. They can not only cause damage and threaten the defenders on the enemy's wall, but also serve as giant shields for our own camp, blocking the defenders' arrows.
formation to effectively protect our own soldiers.
Looking at the Sichuan army's camp, there are burly and powerful chargers carrying ladders, city breakers pushing assault carts and thunder carts, heavy armored soldiers, and close combat soldiers holding shields, steel knives, and steel swords.
There are archers carrying arrow pots, twisting bows and arrows, spies on horseback, and messengers running continuously between the camps, shuttling back and forth. All the soldiers in the army are performing their duties. It can be said to be a large army of mixed arms worthy of the name.
When the Sichuan Army advanced, it was not very fast. First, the army carried too many large-scale armaments. Second, the armor of the Sichuan Army soldiers was too heavy, and they could not move fast even if they wanted to.
However, the Sichuan army's advance was extremely steady, step by step, both offensive and defensive, and they had their own unique offensive rhythm.
Tang Yin, who was on the wall of the camp, could see it clearly, and his face became more solemn. When he faced the Sichuan Army again, he seemed to have returned to the Battle of the Pass. At that time, he was also facing the Sichuan Army. The city defense that could dominate the pass was still defeated by the Sichuan Army.
To break through, the defense of our own camp is far inferior to that of Baguan, which is a high-defense city. You can imagine how difficult it is to resist the Sichuan army. ""
Seeing helplessly that the Sichuan Army camp outside the camp has passed the trebuchet and is pressing towards us step by step. The soldiers of the Feng Army who were also on the wall of the village all turned their eyes to Tang Yin, just waiting for his order so that they could shoot out.
Arrow formation.
When the Sichuan army was one hundred and fifty steps away from its own camp, Tang Yin did not issue an order. When it was nearly a hundred steps away, Tang Yin still did not issue an order to counterattack. At this time, people began to become anxious and sweatdropped.
Roll down.
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, so close that one could clearly see the faces of the enemy's archers on the archery tower. At this moment, Tang Yin finally issued an order, which was unexpected by everyone: All officers and soldiers in the army should retreat.
Wall.
People simply couldn't believe their ears. The Sichuan Army's front troops were approaching a hundred paces away. Instead of fighting back, our side had to retreat down the wall. Wasn't this deliberately giving up our defense line to the enemy?
There was no extra time to explain, Tang Yin's face was gloomy, and he shouted to the left and right: "Quickly, follow my orders, and everyone must retreat from the village wall!"
If Tang Yin were not the Feng King, the soldiers of the Feng Army would probably have to wonder if he was a spy from the enemy who had infiltrated their own side. The military orders were overwhelming. He issued such an order, even if everyone thought it was ridiculous and wrong, they still had to stand firm.
Scalp to perform.
According to his order, many soldiers of the Feng Army retreated from the stronghold wall. Not long after they retreated from the stronghold wall, people finally understood why the king issued such an unreasonable order.
Suddenly, the heavy trebuchets in the Sichuan Army's camp started without warning, and huge stone bombs were thrown into the sky from the Sichuan Army's camp, and then they were like hailstones, with a harsh whistling sound.
They fell down one after another.
For a time, there was a continuous roar on the wall of Fengying Village. The wall made of a mixture of soil and wooden piles was hit hard by stone bullets. Dust flew up, sawdust flew everywhere, and the long and narrow wall collapsed in an instant.
It was riddled with holes, and many stone bullets were deeply embedded in the wall.
With the start of the trebuchet, the attack began. Immediately afterwards, the Sichuan army archers on the archery tower shot out the arrows in their hands. The black arrows shot straight onto the wall of the village, crackling and crisp.
The sound is endless.
The mixed attack of stone bullets and arrow arrays left no intact place on the walls of Fengjun's camp. There were damages everywhere, and arrows were stuck everywhere. If Fengjun had not attacked at the moment before the Sichuan army attacked,
If you retreat from the wall in time, you can imagine the heavy casualties.
This is the importance of experience in battle. Tang Yin understood the characteristics of the Sichuan Army's attack and immediately evaded to minimize his own casualties. As the Sichuan Army camp got closer and closer, the Sichuan Army's heavy trebuchets invariably responded
The ground stopped firing. The Sichuan Army will never let its own people accidentally injure its own people in a war. It can be said that this is the civilization of the Sichuan Army, and it can also be said that this is one of the few weaknesses of the Sichuan Army.
When the heavy trebuchet stopped attacking, a faint light flashed in Tang Yin's eyes. He took a deep breath, stood up under the wall of the village, and shouted loudly to everyone around him: "Listen to the order and go up to the wall to meet the enemy!
"
Wow - Tang Yin's order was quickly passed on by the soldiers, and a large number of Feng Army soldiers cheered up and swarmed to the wall of the village again.
Some fast soldiers ran at the front. As soon as they climbed onto the wall of the village, without even seeing the situation clearly, they were turned into hedgehogs by the arrows fired in the direction.
Their corpses rolled down the steps, which also alerted the soldiers behind them. People no longer dared to rush up rashly, and they raised their shields one after another to form a shield formation.
Ding, dong, dong! The arrows hit the shield, making a series of crisp sounds. People looked out through the gaps in the shield. Well, the Sichuan Army's archery tower was only a few feet away from the village wall, and the archers above could already
Launch a horizontal shot at the village wall.
The Feng army, which had stabilized their position with a shield formation, immediately launched a counterattack. The cooperation between the soldiers was extremely tacit. The moment the shield formation dispersed, the soldiers behind them all shot out the arrows in their hands, and then,
The shield bearer in front then set up the shield again and formed the shield formation.
The sudden counterattack also made the Sichuan Army archers on the archery tower unable to react in time. In an instant, many people were hit by arrows. From time to time, a Sichuan Army soldier with an eagle feather on his body fell screaming from the archery tower.
Pressing down the archers on the opponent's archery tower, the Feng army launched a counterattack against the Sichuan army, which had begun to set up ladders and climb the village wall. At this time, the battle between the two sides began to heat up.
The two sides fought a veritable bloody battle. The Sichuan Army's attack was fierce and continuous, while the Feng Army's counterattacks were also fierce and violent. Both sides went back and forth, and the casualties increased linearly.
Since his own troops were at a disadvantage, Tang Yindu personally joined the battle. He fought side by side with many soldiers of the Feng Army on the wall of the village, slashing and killing the Sichuan troops who climbed up the ladder.
Not long after the fierce battle between the two sides, the Sichuan army's charging vehicles and thunderbolt vehicles were pushed to the wall of the village one after another.
Ram chariots are specially used to hit city walls, while thunder chariots are used to hit city gates. These two weapons are extremely powerful, and they are both sharp weapons for destroying cities, and they are also the most troublesome thing for the defenders.
As the charging car approached, the roaring sound from below the wall continued, and the wall swayed back and forth under the continuous impact of the charging car. Many Feng soldiers were unsteady and sat on the ground involuntarily.
When Tang Yin saw this, he grabbed a spear and jumped directly from the top of the wall without even thinking about it.
Plop! When his body hit the ground, it hit a Sichuan soldier, breaking his bones and tendons, and even the armor on his body changed its shape.
Tang Yin was protected by his spiritual armor and was unscathed. He stood up from the ground with a roll, raised his gun and headed straight for the Sichuan army's charging car.
Seeing that the man in the wind fell from the wall of the village, the surrounding Sichuan troops swarmed forward, stabbing Tang Yin's body from all directions with short swords, long spears and halberds.
