Chapter 328
There were only shouts and war drums left between heaven and earth, and the rain of arrows in the sky was dense, almost obscuring the sky, and the white clouds were also dyed yellow by the yellow sand, and it turned out that the wind swept up the yellow sand in the sky, blocking the sight.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......
Even though Xingzhe was sitting on the roof, some distance from the city tower, the sound of the rain of arrows was still very clear, like a bullet flying past his ears, which was extremely destructive.
Miao Jiang's army began to erect ladders on the city wall, and the Miao Jiang soldiers on the other side had already begun to hit the city gate with siege sticks.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The siege wood made a deafening sound every time it hit the gates, but the gates were not slammed open, but there was some slackness.
The sword soldiers sprinkled oil on the ladder, and the oil was sprinkled on the ladder, and the ladder became very slippery, and the grasp was unstable, and the soldiers of Miao Jiang fell down one after another, and took a few soldiers behind them down.
There were also a few soldiers who sprinkled the tower, but what appeared in front of them was not an archer, but a shield soldier and a sword soldier, who were dumbfounded for a moment, and then their heads were cut off by the sword soldiers, and they were directly pushed down by the shield soldiers.
Rumble!
After several impacts, the city gate finally couldn't bear it, and Miao Jiang's soldiers threw down the siege wood and rushed into the city gate excitedly, wanting to enter the city and kill them.
They had attacked many times before, but none of them had succeeded in breaking through the city gate, but this time they succeeded in breaking through the city gate, and the energetic soldiers were as happy as if they had eaten dumplings.
"Rush!"
However, as soon as they stepped into the city, before they could kill a single person, they were directly cut into two pieces by the cavalry rushing towards them, trampled with iron hooves, and blood flew up.
"Okay, fight well, rush directly into the center of the Miaojiang army in one fell swoop and cut down their flag!"
Xingzhe stood up excitedly, clapped his hands constantly, and shouted at Lin Xiao, asking Lin Xiao to give orders to the soldiers.
"The cavalry charges and takes the enemy's flag!"
Lin Xiao gave the order without hesitation, he trusted Xingzhe and knew that everything was still in Xingzhe's plan.
"Kill!"
The cavalry marched at full speed and rushed directly to the general banner of the Miaojiang army.
The flag is very important for an army, not only can be used to give orders to the army, but also the sustenance of the army's morale, if the flag is cut down, then the army is not far from the annihilation of the whole army.
The flag-bearer on the opposite side obviously saw that the situation was wrong, and the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty drove directly into him, rushing towards him, and there was no obstacle along the way, and no one could stop them.
Originally, if you don't take advantage of the cavalry, let alone the cavalry that is running wildly, the soldiers who want to block the Tang cavalry are either pierced by spears or trampled by horses' hooves, and they are killed, wounded, and suffer heavy losses.
"The whole army retreats! The whole army retreats! The whole army retreats! ”
The flag bearer received orders from the general next to him, shouting loudly and waving the flag vigorously.
The general took the lead in retreating with the flag-bearer, and the other soldiers also fought and retreated, but the middle was passed by the cavalry, and was occupied by the infantry behind, and some of the Miao Jiang soldiers were successfully captured.
Xingzhe is a person who knows how to accept when he sees a good thing, he didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue, and it is too late for them to pursue now. If you encounter an ambush on the way to pursue, it will be more than worth the loss.
Now not only has the Miaojiang army been severely damaged, but there is also a group of prisoners, who are used well and can get a lot of useful information.
Xingzhe is not a person who abuses prisoners of war, but he is not a person who treats prisoners of war preferentially, he has to think about his brothers under his command and the people of his Tang Dynasty. What's more, the Miao Jiang army still plays the role of invaders, so he must attack these prisoners of war.
He just didn't abuse the prisoners of war himself, and if he asked his subordinates to do it, it shouldn't be his own.
As a result, Xingzhe's first battle was a complete victory, and the soldiers finally paid attention to this young general. The young general always had the idea of something they had never heard of, and they were very practical.
Now they will greet Xingzhe with a smile when they see it, and some will even bow and salute, unlike at the beginning, after seeing it, they either pretended not to see it, or they greeted Xingzhe with an unhappy face, and then left immediately, for fear of saying a word to Xingzhe.
Seeing the change in the soldiers' attitude towards him, Xingzhe smiled with relief, it seems that this group of guys has begun to identify with him.
Soldiers, like warriors, have to show some strength if they want to get them to agree. Either you defeat them, or you take them to a good victory. Obviously, Xingzhe did it, so the soldiers also agreed with Xingzhe.
That night, Xingzhe set up a celebration banquet, and the soldiers were a little confused, and there was a celebration banquet after winning the war, which was a small dream for them before, but now it has come true, and happiness came too suddenly.
In fact, Xingzhe was ready before the war, although he didn't spend less money, but in order to be able to win, Xingzhe did not hesitate to spend a little more money, and every money Xingzhe spent was recorded, and when he returned triumphantly, he went to the general Yu Zhan and asked him to help reimburse.
In this way, Xingzhe will not only be able to win the war, but also not spend a penny. If it were under normal circumstances, Xingzhe would definitely lie about the expenses, and then make a fortune more or less. But this time Xingzhe didn't choose to do this, the reason is very simple, because the general Yu Zhan helped him, and whoever he pits, he won't pit his own people.
Even for the general Yu Zhan, it is not a matter for Xingzhe to pit him for some money, he is not short of money at all, and he is much richer than Xingzhe.
Although Xingzhe earns a lot every day, he is a restaurant and a member of the Green Gang, although he can't be said to be rich, he can be regarded as a rich party.
It's just that Xingzhe has just started business after all, and the general Yu Zhandu has been marketing for many years, even if the monthly income is not necessarily as high as Xingzhe, but the general has been operating for a long time, and the total amount of money earned is much more than that of Xingzhe.
If you ask the general Yu Zhan now how much his property is, he himself may not know, anyway, for the general Yu Zhan, the money is not spent at all, unlike Xingzhe, although he earns a lot, but the expenses are not small, and after the income and expenses are offset, Xingzhe does not earn much.
But it's definitely a lot more than the average businessman, after all, the scale is there. If an ordinary shop earns more than Xingzhe's big restaurant, then Xingzhe would have changed his career a long time ago.
Datang's injuries are not much, and the sacrifices are even fewer, and the injured ones have been treated by the doctor, which basically will not affect the celebration banquet in the evening.
