Chapter 73: The Banner of the Great King of the City Changes
Waited for about a quarter of an hour, waiting for the defenders to disperse. Liu Feng gave an order, and the sergeants escorted the two temporary rushing cars and slammed into the city gate violently. There were also soldiers who set up ladders and began to climb the walls.
The soldiers defending the city were busy in the city, some firing arrows, others throwing rolling wooden stones, and others cutting ladders. For a while, there was a stalemate. I have to say that this siege battle is really not fun, Liu Feng really can't wait to have a cannon, and a few cannons can blow up a hole.
The Jiangaro soldiers suffered heavy casualties at this time, and the archery was not so terrible, wearing armor and holding shields, and it was dark and dark, it was estimated that Tanisha's bow and arrows were not very good, and he could not hurt anyone. But this rolling wood and stone really cost people's lives, and those who hit the door under the city and climbed the ladder were stoned to death and injured a lot.
Just when Liu Feng was full of sadness and anxious, the city gate actually opened from the inside. Not daring to do so much, the sergeants rushed up and rushed into the city.
When I entered the city gate, I realized that it was Muji and Gari, and it was estimated that the fire was almost gone, and there was enough trouble, so I thought about opening the door. Gari and a few men were fighting to the death against the Tanisha army, and they were already scarred, but it was Muji who opened the city gate.
Seeing Liu Feng and them entering the city, General Jia Ri breathed a sigh of relief, and if he delayed for a while, he and Mu Ji had to explain here.
Liu Feng didn't care about talking, and led the army into the city, first solved a group of soldiers besieging Gari, and then said loudly to Gari:
"General Gari has worked hard, you command the soldiers and horses here, seize the city tower, and I will go to the east gate to let Zilong and them in." After speaking, together with Muji and Kulanyi, he took two hundred cavalry and killed the east gate.
At this time, the Jiangaro army really attacked, and the Tanisha soldiers in the city were panicked and did not dare to fight. Saga City is indeed not big, it is estimated that it will take less than half an hour, and Liu Feng's cavalry team rushed to the east gate. It's lively here, Zhao Yun commanded the sergeants, banging on the door outside the city, and climbing the ladder.
The soldiers on the tower of the city took advantage of the location, throwing stones, still rolling logs, and throwing arrows, and throwing whatever they had at hand.
Liu Feng clenched the Mo knife, lightly knocked the horse's back, and the luma under his crotch rushed forward with all his might. A cavalry of 200 men quickly reached the bottom of the castle. The Tanesha army was concentrating on dealing with the defenders outside the city, how could they have thought that such a group of living Yamas would come from behind? Hurriedly organized troops and prepared to besiege Liu Feng and his gang.
"Muji, I'll block them, you go open the door." Liu Feng gave an order, and rushed to the crowd with the cavalry.
In fact, there were only one or two thousand people guarding the east gate, and some of them had to be left on the city tower, and less than a thousand people came down. Two hundred cavalry was enough to deal with, and the two sides were quickly killed in one place, and for a while, swords and swords flashed, and shouts of killing were everywhere.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Mu Ji took a few people into the city gate tower, slashed the sergeant guarding the gate with a few knives, and opened the city gate.
Seeing Zhao Yun's army rushing in, the soldiers defending the city knew that Saga City was finished. The troops are not superior, and there is no danger of the city wall, what are you going to fight, escape. The wind knew the strength of the grass, the defeat was like a mountain, and the army of Tanesha was crushed and scattered.
Victory was in sight, and the sergeants on Liu Feng's side became more and more brave the more they fought, chasing and killing along the road. After half an hour, the fighting gradually stopped.
Saga City is on the west side of the mountain, there are three city gates in the southeast, north and south, and Liu Feng did not dare to be careless, and sent several generals to guard the city gates. Then he and Zhao Yun led the team separately to patrol the streets and alleys of the city, clear the remnants of Tanesha's army, and officially take over Saga City.
After checking the granary, there was plenty of grain and grass. Some grain, grass and meat were taken and distributed to the troops, so that the soldiers could eat and drink enough and have a good rest.
This long night has finally passed, and on the whole it was quite smooth, hundreds of soldiers died during the siege, and Zhao Yun died a little more on his side, and after a few battles, more than 1,000 people died, which can be regarded as bloodless, and took Sashijiaguan and Sajia City.
Without food and grass support, let's see how long that Luka's 50,000 army can last.
The city of Saga has been captured, and it was the first Tanesha city to be captured. Obviously, Liu Feng's ambition is much more than that. The guards in the city have been killed in battle, and the county commander and his chief bookkeeper and other staff have been taken into custody. This place is not the main grain producing area, it is the northward grain and grass transit place of Tanisha, which is very important, and the county Cheng group is naturally Akash's cronies, in a high position, and is very rich.
Liu Feng probably has a plan in mind, but he still wants to hear everyone's opinions. So he transferred the county government to the Chinese military tent and convened a meeting of the soldiers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have taken Sashigaguan and Saga City. The situation is still complicated today, and there are 50,000 main forces of Luka in the north, which is estimated to be at war with Shimiro. To the west is the 100,000-strong army of Akash, which may return at any time, and to the south is the other city-states of Tanesha, and there are many variables. What should we do next? I'd like to hear your opinions. ”
After Liu Feng finished speaking, she looked at Ku Lanyi first, in fact, she had already noticed that whenever she mentioned Shimiluo, Ku Lanyi was very worried.
"All the troops of Shimiluo, including the newly recruited recruits, are only 10,000, and now that the 50,000 army is besieging the city, it must be uncomfortable, we must support it as soon as possible." Shimiro is Kulanyi's hometown, so naturally he is most concerned about Shimiro's safety.
"The situation in Jiangaro is equally complicated, but I believe in the marshal's arrangement." It was General Gari who spoke, he was the general of Jianjialuo, and he was transferred here by Liu Feng, and the battle was quite cool, but he was also worried about the safety of his homeland.
"Kulanyi, General Gari", Liu Feng's eyes were blazing, and he looked at the two of them, "You believe me, Shimira and Jianjialuo will be fine." We are like a thorn in Akash's chest, as long as we are here, neither Akashic nor Aronashun dare to despise us.
Moreover, I believe in Gen-la Zhi, she is a true great wisdom, her thoughts and actions are completely different from those of other sects, and with her and Talia in Jiangara, Jiangara must be worry-free. ”
"I can understand the two of you, now your eyes are black, and you really don't know the bottom of your heart." After speaking, Liu Feng looked at Mu Ji, "Mu Ji, you and General Jia Ri go to the team to find out if there are any people who are good at business, and it is best to find a hundred people." ”
"There are a small number of Jain descendants in the army, they are indeed better at business, and they can only do logistics in the army, and they are the most suitable to go." Gari, who knew the army best, proposed.
Jainism? Business? Liu Feng and Zhao Yun both had question marks on their faces, is there still a sect that specializes in business? It's been a long day. Seeing that the two of them were puzzled, Ku Lanyi hurriedly explained, and Liu Feng understood.
Jainism believes that there is life in all things, and many of the believers are ascetic, and many of those who travel in tattered clothes and begging are Jains. They are against caste injustice, against killing, against fatalism, and believers are no longer in the minority.
