Chapter 739: Yiling Attack and Defense
Under the ferocious attack of these barbarian warriors in Yiling County, there were still some people who did not want to die and climbed to the city tower.
However, it was precisely because of these barbarian warriors that the arrows under the city had stopped.
At this time, the archers of the Xiongxi tribe will not continue to shoot arrows, because they are also worried about shooting people from their own tribe.
With the obstruction of these people who climbed up to the city tower, the defense measures on the city tower also became slow, but the soldiers who were trapped in the camp that Gao Shun arranged on the city tower began to play an effect.
These soldiers trapped in the camp, holding Changge, one by one were in the battlements, as long as a barbarian came up, he immediately used the weapons in his hand to harvest the lives of these barbarians.
The battle gradually stabilized the situation in the appearance of these trapped soldiers.
Ah Huilan and Dong Di under the city tower have changed from the initial excitement to gloomy faces.
The men and horses of their two tribes have been attacking for so long, and they have lost thousands of men again, but they still haven't broken the appearance of this Yiling county town.
Dong Di's men and horses were the first to attack, and in the siege charge just now, the 20,000 people and horses of the Manxi tribe brought by Dong Di had already lost half of their men at this time.
If he continues to attack, then his 20,000 men may not be able to have much left.
Dong Di had already flinched a little, glanced at Ah Hui Mo with some hesitation, and asked Ah Hui Mo tentatively.
"Leader Ah Huilan, this Yiling County doesn't seem to be so easy to fight, are we ......?"
However, Dong Di's words were not finished, but he only showed a little intention of withdrawing the troops, and was immediately interrupted by Ah Hui.
"No! Our army has come to the city, Liu Zheng in this Yiling County is just doing a battle of trapped beasts, if this battle is delayed for a long time, it will definitely end up with both defeats. ”
Ah Hui Lan did not want to withdraw his troops.
"However, if we continue to fight like this without counting the consumption, the losses of the clans on both sides of you and me will be very large, for the sake of a mere Yiling County, we have lost tens of thousands of horses here, is it worth it?"
"Of course it's worth it, we care about this Yiling County, what we care about is Liu Zheng in this city, as long as we kill him, we can get the entire Jingzhou, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and let your people, continue to charge, if the fighter plane is delayed, as soon as the enemy reinforcements arrive, our army will be wasted, and everything will be over."
Ah Hui Mo interrupted Dong Di's words again, even if Dong Di had any opinions, after seeing Ah Hui Lan's tough attitude, he didn't dare to say anything more.
Soon, Dong Di's side once again let the people on his side rush forward before they could lose.
Here in the city, after all, there are a large number of people, a large number of soldiers and horses, and these barbarian people and horses are all fearless of death, and they rush forward without dying, so that Liu Zheng's side can resist one or two at the beginning, and as time goes by, Liu Zheng's side is limited after all.
In addition, after several sieges by these barbarians, even if there are many defensive equipment on the city tower, there are times when they are exhausted.
At this time, Liu Zheng on the city tower has nothing to defend, so he can only use the lives of soldiers to resist the attack of these barbarian warriors.
Fortunately, the soldiers trapped in the camp are strong enough, after all, it is Gao Shun, the elite soldiers selected from the various battalions in Liu Zheng's army, with only 2,000 people, on this city tower, blocking the tens of thousands of people from the barbarian tribes under the city from attacking the city.
If it was just these barbarian warriors who climbed the city tower, then Liu Zheng was not very worried, but these tribal warriors of the Xiongxi barbarian tribe made up their minds to attack the city today, and on the one hand, they sent people to climb on the city tower, and on the other hand, they sent people again at the gate under the city and began to rush.
After such a long time of charging on the city tower, even Liu Zheng's men did not break through, and they could not rely on the ladder to break through the city, so Ah Huilan could only use the rushing car to break through the gate of this Yiling county town and enter the city.
As long as they enter the county seat of Yiling, these defenders on the upper floor of the city will not be worried.
The battle lasted for two hours, and everyone's soldiers and horses were already tired.
However, the people on Liu Zheng's side are still insisting.
This siege has already made Liu Zheng a little worried, judging from the intensity of the attack of these Nanban tribes, they are already determined to take down this city this time.
Several times they were repelled by Liu Zheng's men, and it didn't take long for them to rush up again.
Just after such a few charges, Liu Zheng roughly guessed that the number of dead and wounded on the other side was definitely quite a lot, not to mention more than 20,000.
But the death and injury of 20,000 people did not seem to make Ah Huinan and Dong Di feel distressed, since they kept letting their men charge towards Yiling County.
Liu Zheng personally participated in the fight, a steel knife in his hand had already slaughtered the lives of several enemy soldiers, and the gray armor on his body had been stained with bright red blood.
In the interlude of the enemy's charge, Liu Zheng sat down to rest for a while, Liu Zheng had already begun to ponder, how to solve this situation.
Now he has no other way but to defend as much as possible, and when he sends the people and horses to mobilize, the situation in Yiling County will be solved.
"My lord."
While Liu Zheng was still pondering, Gao Shun had already approached Liu Zheng's side from the side.
"General Gao Shun, what's wrong?"
"My lord, our city defense equipment has bottomed out, and if we continue to defend, we are afraid that we will only have to confront the other party head-on."
Gao Shun came to report to Liu Zheng on the current situation in Yiling County.
Liu Zheng had already discovered this matter just now, and when he heard Gao Shun say this, the expression on his face naturally became even more unsightly.
"I know, if you don't have it, then it depends on the strength of your brothers, if you fight head-on, you will fight head-on, I believe that our brothers will not lose to these barbarian savages, as long as they hold on for a while, General Sun Jian's soldiers and horses in Changsha County will definitely come over, as long as we wait for General Sun Jian to arrive here, everything will be solved."
Gao Shun didn't expect Liu Zheng to have anything to do at this time, he heard Liu Zheng say this, and he also understood that Liu Zheng was just cheering them up.
But he didn't say much, just nodded.
"I understand, don't worry, as long as the last general still has a breath of air, this Yiling City will definitely be guarded by the lord intact."
Just when Gao Shun and Liu Zheng were talking on the city tower, there was a loud bang from the city.
