"Bah!" Song Hu spat, pushed out the man who had just been stabbed to death, held a spear in his right hand and put it on the ground, looking at the people who were fighting fiercely in front of him.
This battle of siege and defense entered into a very tragic situation from the beginning. Although the soldiers of the Samarkand Kingdom attacked the city very fiercely every day, the number of soldiers sent each time was not very large. In order to defend the city,
The cannons at the top and the dense rain of arrows were also arranged in a loose queue, waiting for the first wave of soldiers to rush to the top of the city before sending out the second wave.
This is generally correct. If too many soldiers are sent out at one time, not only will a large number of soldiers be killed in the process of rushing to the city, but under normal circumstances, the ladder is not enough for too many people to climb at the same time, and climbing with bare hands is complete.
Building a city wall several feet high is also a technical task, and the siege efficiency is not high.
But today, Timur and his generals seemed to have gone crazy, and ordered his soldiers to form an extremely dense formation and rush to the city. Then when the ladder was not enough, they used the dagger in their hand as a climbing tool to climb up.
In normal times, these soldiers were just here to die. But now the Ming army's defensive equipment has been exhausted. Even if all the grenades specially reserved as trump cards are used up, all the cannon shells are used up, and all the arrows are fired, even if
There were very few rolling stones left, and they were quickly used up in the fierce siege battle.
Moreover, the soldiers of the Samarkand Kingdom used an unexpected strategy. Every soldier who came to attack the city held a brick in his hand. After rushing to the city, he threw it on the ground. Tens of thousands of soldiers took the bricks quickly.
Just pile them up to two to three feet high, which will shorten the distance you need to climb a lot.
As a result, the Ming army, which had lost all its defense equipment, resisted for a while and eliminated thousands of Samarkand soldiers who were attacking the city. Then an oversight occurred, allowing them to open a gap and attack the city.
Song Hu and others hurriedly led the soldiers to eliminate the people who came up, but they were eliminated on one side, and people were missing on the other side, so Song Hu had to rush to the other side.
Because the enemy's attack on the city was too fierce and the fighting was too frequent, Song Hu's arm almost lost strength after only fighting for an hour, and he could only stop and rest for a while after stabbing one person to death.
"Sir," said one of his subordinates, "the soldiers are almost overwhelmed. They haven't rested since they got up in the morning, and the soldiers of Samarkand are like locusts, killing them all.
One after another rushed forward, killing two and another pair rushed forward!"
"If it weren't for the defense of the city, the soldiers would have thrown down their weapons and fled. But even though they had no choice but to defend because they had no choice but to escape, many of them were sweating profusely and were so exhausted that some even lost their eyesight.
Sir, let them rest for a while and use the reserve force." The reserve force is the reserve force. Although there are very few soldiers in the city, at Song Sheng's insistence, a thousand soldiers were still drawn out from each city as a reserve force.
Song Hu raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky, then at the city head, shook his head and said, "No! Now is not the time to use the reserve team!"
"It's only the beginning of the hour now, and there's still an hour before noon. The soldiers must hold on until noon before they can mobilize their troops!"
"One hour! How can the soldiers hold on for another hour!" Qian Hu said. It's not that he didn't know what Song Hu said was reasonable. If the reserve team is used too early, it is very likely that the entire army will be without a partner until it lasts.
With the strength to fight again, the city was lost; but now the soldiers were extremely tired and could not hold on for an hour.
"We must hold on for an hour!" Song Hu said decisively.
After hearing this, Qianhu knew that it was useless to talk anymore, so he sighed and went back to fight with the soldiers of Samarkand.
Song Hu rested for a while, threw the spear aside, picked up a light waist knife, and led his soldiers to the front line.
He faced the knife swung by a man, and when the knife was about to come, he stepped aside and then slashed the man's waist with his own knife. He heard a scream and the man fell to the ground. Song Hu used the knife again and struck the man on the waist.
He wiped it on his neck to ensure that this person would not die again, and then went to kill the next person.
While he was killing, suddenly there was a "buzzing" sound in the air. Song Hu heard that it was flying towards him and shouted: "Arrow! Dodge quickly!" He squatted on the ground and pulled it at will.
Blocked by a corpse.
"Bang bang bang!" Countless arrows hit the bricks and stones, killing all the Ming and Samarkand soldiers who could not escape in time.
