Chapter 665 One horse is a thousand! Kill the enemy under the city
Seeing that the bandit army began to attack the city, Hua Rong gave a decisive order. The military warriors on the south wall of Mianshang County had already pulled their bows into the shape of a full moon, with sharp arrows placed on the bow strings.
The sharp arrow clusters reflected the sun's dazzling coldness.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Only a moment later, whistling arrows were already pouring down from the city wall. The thieves' saber-shielders below the city wall hurriedly blocked their wooden shields in front of themselves, but there were still more than twenty thieves who were caught off guard and were immediately shot.
Fall to the ground.
As expected, these officers and soldiers are not like those old, weak and cowardly people all over the east of the river, and their skills with bows and arrows are really good. But there are only a few dozen people guarding one side of the city wall, how can they do anything?
Ji Wenbing, who was ordered by Tian Hu to attack the south gate of Mianshang County, sneered, and then he knocked down two wolf-fang arrows that were shot in front of him with one sword, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Don't panic, keep your formation.
We have set up a long ladder, but with few officers and soldiers, we cannot stop us!"
Ji Wenbing's thieves, who were lined up in ten teams with more than a hundred people in each team, formed successive formations and still slowly advanced towards the county wall. As Ji Wenbing said, the officers and soldiers guarding the county town were really strong.
It was too few, and it was simply not enough to kill the four thousand soldiers who were surrounded on all sides and were preparing to climb to the top of the city. On the contrary, as soon as the archers in the rebel army came within shooting range, they immediately drew their bows and lowered their strings to suppress the top of the city wall.
Shooting. When Hua Rong and his subordinate Jun Jian saw this, they leaned down and hid under the female wall. Seven or eight martial arts masters brought by Ye Qing were caught off guard and were hit by stray arrows. Three of them died immediately.
Now the city walls in the east and west directions of Mianshang County are also in the same situation. I saw thieves everywhere under the city. They have begun to put hook ladders on the city wall that is about several feet high, and are climbing up without fear of death.
, there was a large group of archers behind who kept shooting arrows upwards to cover the other thieves climbing up the city. Although the military guards who were guarding the wall kept firing arrows back, after all, we were outnumbered. Although we relied on the convenient location of the city wall, we were still outnumbered.
But he was still suppressed by the sharp arrows and couldn't raise his head.
The most stable situation now is the northern gate of Mianshang guarded by Li Zhixian led by two thousand local villagers and officials. Although these young and strong villagers have almost never experienced war, they are under the control of Li Zhixian
Heavy stones and boiling soup were thrown towards the bottom of the city. Many people who had just reached the bottom of the city wall either had their bones shattered by the stones, or their skin and flesh were torn apart by the boiling soup! It was heartbreaking.
The screams of lung-breaking sounds were heard one after another. Seeing the miserable condition of their accomplices, the remaining thieves who were attacking the north gate were so horrified that they retreated continuously, refusing to attack the city with all their might.
Now the pressure to defend the city is concentrated on the east, south and west gates.
Just as a large number of thieves brazenly crossed the ditch and set up long ladders to climb up the city wall, Ji Wenbing ordered a group of strong-armed warriors to push the crash car with iron leaves wrapped around the top of the thick wooden hanger slowly toward the city gate.
The position moved over. Mianshang County is not an ordinary state capital fortress. The city gate is neither the kind with a thousand-pound gate barrier protection, nor is it a heavy city gate wrapped with iron and made of hardwood tung oil on the inside.
Under the continuous impact, it is easy to break the door bolts holding the two city gates on the inside. Therefore, even if the thieves under his command lack ladder trucks, catapults, or heavy ram vehicles and other siege weapons, Tian Hu already believes that with the current
With the manpower and equipment, it is not difficult to break Watami Castle.
Just as the strong men among the thieves were shouting slogans in unison and slowly moving towards the south gate of the city, they suddenly found that the city gate was slowly being opened. The leader of the thieves who ordered the strong men to move forward was startled when he saw this and said to himself
The generals guarding the city and our army are strong. Is Zhemo going to open the city gate and surrender?
But only a moment later, a figure emerged from the city gate that was opened to allow only one person and one horse to pass through. When the group of thieves took a look at the officer and general who walked out, they saw: a majestic body eight feet long, and a majestic and majestic demeanor.
; The armor is draped in green wolf skin, and the red horse under the saddle is frightened by the wind; the unicorn is belted with two swords on its shoulders, and the gold-chiselled spear shines in the cold light; there are chisel arrows in the jade carving pot, the bow head is a wolf's head, the face is ferocious; the formation is broken and the powerful tiger general of Yi, Water Margin
Ren Xia is Xiao Tang!
Before the thieves who were about to hit the city gate could react, Xiao Tang shouted loudly. He spurred his horse like flying and rushed in front of them like a whirlwind! When the gold-chiselled tiger head and dragon tooth gun was danced again, only
Seeing bursts of blood splattering, the little bandit leader and a dozen strong men were already lying dead outside the city with blood splattered five steps away!
"Um??!!"
Ji Wenbing, who was commanding the thieves to attack the city from behind, focused his eyes and thought that the one who fought alone in the battle was Ren Xia Xiao Tang, whom Leader Tian Da must kill quickly!? This guy is really crazy! He dares to go out of the city to fight alone.
Thousands of soldiers under my command are fighting against each other? Straight mother-in-law, if this doesn't kill him, won't my colleagues from other mountains laugh at me for my incompetence?
Just because it was a siege, most of the soldiers Ji Wenbing led were infantry. He was cautious and did not dare to rush to fight with Xiao Tang. Instead, he ordered the fifty or sixty riders around You Ge to gather together.
One place, and hurriedly rushed towards Xiao Tang to kill the general!
Except for the north gate of Mianshang County, which was guarded by Magistrate Li, Xiao Tang ordered Hua Rong, Niu Gao, and Ye Qing to each lead their troops to defend a city gate, while he rushed out of the city single-handedly, trying his best to defeat the thieves who were attacking the city from several sides.
The battle was in chaos. Xiao Tang did not think that he was really a man of ten thousand enemies with the prowess of a ghost or god. Although Sifu was only one man and one rider, his flexibility on the battlefield was able to exert the greatest effect. What's more, with his own skills
, as well as the extremely fast flaming red horse under the crotch that can neigh the wind for thousands of miles. As long as it is not surrounded by thieves and is attacked from the front and back, then naturally it can annihilate the enemy as much as possible while riding.
Tian Hu and the Hedong thieves under his command not only wanted to break through the Mianshang County City, but also had to take their own lives. So when a large number of thieves lined up to attack the city, they were surprised to find that the enemy general was riding alone to break into the formation.
In the case of dispersion, it can also ensure that the pressure on Mianshang County's own troops defending the city on all sides will be less.
The last strongman next to the simple car crash had just been knocked away by Xiao Tang. He only heard the sound of horse hooves in front of him. Dozens of cavalry were rushing towards him. When Xiao Tang saw this, he became even more energetic. He had no intention of reining in his horse and avoiding it.
, instead, he clamped his legs again, raised his gun, and charged straight towards the center where he stabbed the riders!
The thief knight who bore the brunt was startled at first. He did not expect to be so fierce. He actually dared to attack the group of riders who were galloping away. He instinctively pulled the reins and sideways to dodge, but he did not guard against Xiao.
The horse under Tang's crotch had already neighed loudly and rushed to the vicinity. Xiao Tang fired his gun very quickly, and the sharp blade of the spear had already pierced the thieves' chest! Dozens of the surrounding thieves were shocked when they saw this.
, and then they each waved the gleaming sabers in their hands, and slashed straight at Xiao Tang!
A charge in a horse battle is different from an infantry battle. While fighting the surrounding enemy troops, generals must always pay attention to the momentum and direction of the horses on both sides. Xiao Tang relied on his superb riding skills to escape from the middle of the thieves.
They broke through the encirclement like they were breaking waves. Although it was difficult for two fists to beat four hands, when the thieves and the horsemen came together and slashed with their swords, Xiao Tang had already ridden his horse to a few feet away, and a fountain of blood splashed.
, on the contrary, five or six more thieves were picked off by Xiao Tang while he was breaking through!
This guy is so awesome!
Ji Wenbing gritted his teeth. Just when he was about to order the rest of the infantry to postpone the attack on the city and set up a formation to intercept Xiao Tang who lived under the county city and charged as if there was no one around, suddenly he heard the "whoosh" again.
There was an arrow whistle!
A cluster of sharp arrows suddenly shot out from above. Ji Wenbing just realized that he had been clearly noticed by the archers on the city wall, but before he could make any reaction, the sharp arrow had penetrated his chest with a pop.
Chest! The force of the arrow was so great that the tip of the arrow came out of Ji Wenbing's back. The inertia even knocked him over from his horse! Ji Wenbing immediately vomited a large mouthful of blood, and he howled miserably,
The blood quickly dyed the grass beneath him red! Ji Wenbing fell to the ground, his body twitched and shivered for a while, and then there was no movement at all.
On the city wall, the bowstring of the iron bow in Hua Rong's hand was trembling. He looked coldly at the strongman leader below who was shot dead by one arrow, and secretly said in his heart: According to his brother's wishes, he will disrupt several city gates single-handedly.
I can catch the thieves who are attacking in front of me and attract the attention of the leader of the thieves at the same time. Then I can seize the opportunity and kill the leader of the thieves capital with one arrow... This trick is certainly feasible, but it's just that
My brother has to take great risks, but he must not make any mistakes.
