Nanchang County is the administrative seat of Yuzhang County, while Xingan County is the administrative seat of Duwei.
After the mountain people successfully looted Nanchang County, their military morale was greatly boosted. Several groups of mountain people attacked from three places, and two days later, they appeared around Xingan County.
After moving into the city, the granaries outside the city were also empty. When the mountain people rushed outside the city, the entire Northern Army hiding in Xingan County was almost boiling. They looked at their respective captains and generals with feverish eyes.
Duan Yan looked at everyone coldly and ordered: "Anyone who dares to speak out will be killed!"
Everyone fell silent again. They were extremely unwilling to be unable to go out, and they were even more resentful of Duan Jiong's order.
Lu Zhi stood beside him, frowning and saying nothing, but Huangfu Song asked: "General, you can no longer suppress the fighting spirit of the soldiers. Do you want to go out of the city to fight the thieves?" Duan Jieyao
He shook his head and said: "The thieves are coming to loot the food and grass. We will just wait for them to attack the city. Why should we be impatient? Let's take a good rest first!" After Duan Qiao finished speaking, he stretched out his waist again and looked for it a little calmly.
He sat down in the shade.
The soldiers looked at him helplessly and sat down again.
The mountain people rushed outside the city. Looking at the majestic and tall city wall without any siege equipment, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.
They looked at the leader, You Tuchi. You Tuchi looked at the city wall seriously, with a solemn expression. He looked at the many mountain people and said with some emotion: "No wonder the Han court put grain and grass here. It is such a dangerous building."
The majestic county!" Everyone looked at each other, their expressions gradually became serious. You Tuchi said: "Brothers, in this county, there is more food than we can eat in our lifetime. This is for 200,000 people.
As long as the food prepared by the army can be destroyed here, we will not only get rid of hunger and cold, but also destroy the 200,000 army!"
Everyone roared one after another, but this shout was particularly harsh in the ears of many Northern and Southern troops, like a group of sheep coming to a tiger's den and provoking wantonly!
They did not understand at all that some general would not let them go out to fight in the city. Duan Jiong opened his eyes and nodded to the person next to him. That person was Huang Zhong, the fierce general of the Southern Army. Huang Zhong walked to the city wall in a few steps. Everyone
Not knowing what he was going to do, he walked up to the city wall and shouted outside the city: "Who is coming? Why are you attacking our Xingan County?" You Tuchi sneered and led a group of mountain people, holding big guns.
Shield, slowly approached the city wall.
As soon as he arrived and was about to speak, two to three hundred crossbowmen suddenly appeared on the city wall, and they suddenly fired crossbow arrows at them. You Tuchi was shocked, and mountain soldiers quickly guarded him.
Unconsciously, two sect commanders who came with You Tuchi were shot dead on the spot. You Tuchi gritted his teeth and slowly retreated under the crowd. The bodies of the two sect commanders were
, was shot directly into minced meat and pulp!
Youtuchi's eyes widened and filled with blood. He said nothing else. He waved his hand and roared: "Kill!!!" He held a large shield and took the lead in charging towards the city. Everyone roared angrily.
They rushed over, Huang Zhong looked at them disapprovingly, but he didn't understand why the general only let them guard the city wall with more than 300 people. If there were thousands of crossbowmen just now, they could kill all the bandits who came.
!
Huang Zhong led everyone to start a counterattack, and an offensive and defensive battle began. Shanyue did not have any engineering equipment, so they could only cut some crossbars to hit the city gate. However, they were under the crossbows of the Han army and had no chance of freedom. They were shot and killed one after another to protect their ability, and the corpses were piled up at the city gate. You Tuchi had just charged, and he personally held the crossbar and hit it towards the city gate. The other mountain people also held crude homemade ladders and headed towards the city gate. City charge!
The soldiers on the city wall looked extremely indifferent. They had no fear of these mountain people who were dozens of times more numerous than themselves. They kept bending their bows and shooting. If their arms lost strength, they would immediately replace them, especially Youtu Chigong. After a while, he felt extremely surprised. The city gate was strong, and he had expected it. However, these crossbowmen were only three or four hundred people. Why could they keep firing? Wouldn't they get tired in time?
At this time, there were three groups of armies forming an encirclement in Yuzhang County.
Jiaozhou County soldiers, Yangzhou County soldiers, and Jingzhou County soldiers slowly surrounded Xingan County from four directions. Nearly 30,000 soldiers from Xingan County had gathered on the mountain passes leading to several other places in Xingan County. The soldiers were commanded by the governors of the three states. They had great hostility towards Duan Juan in their hearts. However, the emperor had an edict asking them to obey Duan Juan's orders. There was nothing they could do. As local officials, they could not oppose any of the emperor's orders. edict.
Otherwise, you will cause trouble for yourself.
As time gradually passed, the mountain people continued to attack the city wall. They looked like crazy demons. The ladders were constantly placed on the city wall, and You Tuchi hit the city gate again and again, and the city gate gradually became loose and let out a After waves of unbearable moans, You Tuchi looked ecstatic and roared: "Open it!", "Boom~~~~", the city gate roared loudly, and inside the city, tens of thousands of soldiers from the Northern and Southern armies clinging to the city wall, They all clenched the spears in their hands.
"I heard that the mountain people are brave and have outstanding martial arts. I wonder if you guys are worthy of a fight?" Duan Qiao asked worriedly. Sun Jian roared angrily and rushed towards the city gate. Many soldiers from the north and the south roared angrily. , amidst this roar, the city gate was suddenly smashed into pieces, wood chips flew everywhere, and the city gate fell to the ground. You Tuchi excitedly beat his chest and shouted, leading many mountain people to rush towards Within the city.
"Kill!!!" faced Sun Jian's angry roar. He held a long knife and fought out of the city. Behind him were countless tough soldiers with red eyes, roaring and killing them. Suddenly, Drums were beating everywhere, flags were flying, and thick smoke rose into the sky. The huge drums suddenly woke up the entire mountain people, and the flags that were constantly raised on the city wall made them frightened. You Tuchi looked at the charging troops in front of him in disbelief. The pace slowed down.
How is this possible? How is this possible?
"Whoosh~~~" A spear was thrown from the Han army and shot towards him. The spear was like a crossbow arrow. It went directly through Youtuchi's shoulder and shot him over. Youtuchi flew away. When he got out, half of his shoulder was directly crushed, but the person was not dead yet.
Duan Juan stood on the city wall, holding two spears. Dian Wei, who looked a little annoyed, couldn't help laughing.
Although it is easy to defeat the enemy, it is difficult to destroy the enemy.
