Chapter 539: Defeated Again
Su Gavin was left in the city, and 200,000 people were attacking the city, unless the defenders were really unable to connect with the Turkic cavalry.
Besides, Anadra had been prepared for a long time, and the sudden change of route of the Turkic cavalry made it impossible for them to predict what would happen next.
Hebida and others on the city wall saw that the Turks left directly, and the 50,000 cavalry, who were the greatest threat to the vanguard, left, which seemed to give the city a chance, but the situation would be even more dangerous.
"Be careful not to let the enemy take advantage of the defense, it is impossible to attack the walls of the military city first." Hebida shouted loudly on the city walls.
Boost morale and let the soldiers see their generals standing with them.
All timidity waned, and all that remained was courage.
"Charge, charge me."
Su Gavin gave a loud order under the city, looking at the people below the city, he had great confidence to attack the city, but unfortunately their calculation may not be so easy.
Hebida unhurriedly conveyed the order on the city wall, and saw that there were many holes in the originally tight wall of the city wall, and the soldiers hiding behind the city wall pulled out the stone bricks and attacked with bows and arrows.
For the first time, it should be said that all the soldiers besieging the city saw such a wall for the first time, which was able to hide archers, which allowed them to fight.
Sharpshooters can't hit the inside in such a deliberate hole.
The design of the walls of the city is not built casually, many places are built according to the ancient castles of the West, and many hidden arrows are hidden in the city walls.
Just like when Luo Yi arrived, he was surprised by the interior of the city wall.
The back of the city wall is not so simple, because there are various mechanisms hidden under the traditional city gate tower, and the city wall of the Sui State will not dig holes at will, because that will destroy the defense structure of the city wall, and may even collapse after impact.
However, the walls of the castle were made of masonry and cement, and in addition to the fact that they were wide enough, it was impossible for the enemy to break the walls by any means, even without considering the defensive structure.
Archers hiding behind the walls of the city are able to attack with impunity, increasing their efficiency and accuracy, and the enemy's soldiers with a hit rate begin to increase casualties.
He Bida saw that the city wall had become full of people, and the people on his side were very passive in attacking on the battlements, so he gave another order, and a long hole appeared in the lower position, the height of which was just about the same as the height of a normal person, and then saw several fire dragons appear, spraying directly at the enemy in front of the city wall.
The long fire dragon was much farther than the attack distance of the spray train, at least twice as long, and the enemies in front of the entire city wall were all in chaos, and as soon as the fire dragon came out, many of those who had no time to retreat were all wounded.
Soon there were no men in front of the walls, and the archers on the walls continued to wield.
Behind the city walls, many people were busy, and the entire fire-breathing machine was completed by means of an iron device, and the process of igniting the fire was still ignited from the outside, and the fire oil was sprayed out with the pressure of an air bag.
The Force is as simple as a child's water gun, as long as you keep the pressure on.
The soldiers pressurized the flamethrower with the force of the sealed box, and in order to maintain a long enough pressure, they had to constantly send air to the airbags.
A group of dozens of people used the stupid method, all of which were hand-sealed, and they had been working the oil bladder before using the flamethrower.
Especially when you start using it, the effect is actually like seeing a water gun, it doesn't last long, but less than a minute of damage is enough to deal a lot of damage to the enemy.
Frightened, shocked, everyone was retreating, facing the fire-breathing walls, making them new timid, no one was thinking about rushing to the ancients, not even Su Gavin repeatedly gave orders.
While the enemy on the ground was retreating in confusion and timidity, all the archers and ballistae on the walls of the city began to return fire in full force.
"Don't retreat, charge me."
Su Gaiwen was furious, but the situation at this time was beyond his control, and even letting the people behind kill the retreating warriors could not reverse the defeat.
"Open the gates and charge!"
Hebida will not have any respite from the other side, although there are many people on the other side, but the vanguard is cavalry can attack, and the retreat is flexible and mobile, which is the biggest advantage of cavalry.
The soldiers who were originally frightened and frightened saw that the soldiers and horses were dispatched to the city, and they all panicked, and they fled faster, and they didn't care about it, and they abandoned their armor.
Su Gavin saw that the general trend had gone, and Silla and the people of Baizhu had a memory this time, and the charge was not at the forefront, and the retreat was the first among them.
The rout is a matter of imminent triggers, and the target of the vanguard this time is those who are left behind, and all of them rush forward to kill with all their might.
Looking at the soldier who didn't fight back, Su Gaiwen yelled: "Kill back, kill back." ”
But no one paid attention to him at all, and in turn was protected by his guards and carried away.
"The enemy is chasing the soldiers, and the safety of the general is the safety of all the Goryeo soldiers." The guard said and dragged the person away.
First of all, the frontmen don't know what the enemy is thinking, and now is the time for them to get the most benefits, and no one wants to give up on their military exploits.
Ten thousand horses galloped, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and the 50,000 cavalry did not appear all at once, but divided into many shares.
After all, the city gate is so big, the vanguard is well-trained, the cavalry is a double row of horses, the gate is wide, and the speed is very block.
When the cavalry left the city gate, they did not attack immediately, but assembled and waited for those behind.
This is also the reason why Su Gavin has been shouting to kill back, with their numerical advantage, they can definitely have an advantage when the vanguard does not assemble to complete the kill.
It's a pity that he thinks like this, but others don't think like this, they are all busy running for their lives, who cares about orders at this time.
The vanguard gathered 30,000 to start the real initiation tool, using the tactics of encirclement on the left and right, in order to prevent the enemy from counterattacking back.
The advantage of outflanking left and right is that you can retreat at any time, and the disadvantage is that you may have fewer kills.
But it didn't matter, the soldiers knew that the battle had been won, and all that was left to do now was to expand the results.
The Turks could never have imagined that Sugavin's men would suddenly retreat, and they were attacking through the city in the direction of Youzhou.
The Turkic soldiers and horses had barely walked five miles before they encountered the vanguards, already lined up and blocking the road.
Xiong Kuohai was holding a long iron stick and was bored looking at the scenery, and when he saw the cavalry that suddenly appeared, he knew it was time for him to make a move.
"Which Turkic tribe are you?"
The Turks were stunned when they heard Xiong Kuohai ask this, it was so strange, it was the first time they had seen someone ask such a question after fighting a lifetime.
Several Turkic commanders muttered together.
