Chapter 272: Battle of the Warehouse
Chapter 272: Battle of the Warehouse
Guining North City, in a relatively large house, the figure is longing. No one knows where these people came from, they are like ghosts hidden in the night, waiting for the so-called opportunity.
A middle-aged man leaned against a tree, clutching the bark with his hand with some uneasiness, as if doing so would make him calmer. Almost, he took out a cowhide bag from his arms, put it to his mouth and kissed it, his face instantly became much more resolute, "We have been hiding in Guining City for a few months, and it is finally time to make a move." Changshengtian is watching us, for the sake of the Great Khan, for the sake of victory, to kill all those Han people. ”
The sound of the shadow came from the room, and after a while, a man with an iron rod strode out. With a beard, fierce and abnormal, exuding a sense of anger all over his body.
Soon, these people rushed out of the mansion, and many places in the northern city of Guining City burst into flames, mixed with roars and shouts. Since most of the energy was spent on dealing with the enemy forces outside the city, the number of patrols in the city was much reduced, and at this point in time, it was the most exhausting time, and the people and soldiers were all unprepared. With the fire, the people of Beicheng were running around, and the situation was out of control.
"The Tartars have entered the city, everyone flee..... Quick, there is a Tartar ....." A middle-aged man ran wildly through the street with a bloodied face, and several knife-wielding men were in hot pursuit. When the man with the sword saw the passers-by, he cursed in Mongolian language.
The Tartars really came in, at least the people who saw this scene believed it. In order to avoid becoming a ghost under the knife under the hands of the Tartars, the people on the streets could only desperately run to the northwest, where was the temporary military camp in the northern city.
Ruan Sangou has been sitting in the city for the past two days, closely monitoring the movements of all parties. When the Beicheng was in turmoil, the people of the northwest battalion asked to go out to exterminate the remnants, but Ruan Sangou sternly refused. The other party has been lurking for so long, and suddenly making trouble, it will definitely not be as simple as setting fire to create chaos. has been by Tiemo's side for many years, and Ruan Sangou is no longer the reckless boy he was back then.
What do you most want to do? Either the inside should be combined with the outside and open the city gates, or do something to discourage the morale of the army.
The inside should be closed and the city gates opened? Ruan Sangou thought about it carefully and dismissed this possibility. If the city is in chaos, the city will be strictly guarded, so as to prevent the other party from sneaking up on the city gate. The other party is lurking in the city, and he hasn't shown a flaw for so long, so the number of people must not be too much. There are not enough troops, and it is wishful thinking to attack the city gate under strict defense. The defenders of the city gates have already been prepared and will not give each other this chance.
The other party's target is not the city gate! Most likely, it's another place, the East Side Warehouse.
The Dongcheng warehouse, which was just built half a year ago, stores a lot of materials here, especially military supplies, and the soldiers and horses near Guining City, seventy percent of the materials needed are from this warehouse. The worst thing is that all the military rations needed are concentrated in this warehouse. If the Dongcheng warehouse is destroyed, the military rations are insufficient, and food is a problem, how can you defend the city? Learn that Yuan Ma cannibalism?
Ruan Sangou felt a pang in his heart, and instantly made a judgment, "Give me an order to Wu Zhengxing, the commander of the Northwest Battalion, to immediately lead the troops to aid the Dongcheng warehouse, and as for the military camp, leave it to the defenders of the North City Gate to be responsible." ”
"Ah....." The guards were taken aback, "The soldiers and horses of the northwest battalion are out of time, if the other party is wrapped in chaotic people to storm the barracks, what will this do?" ”
Ruan Sangou was suddenly furious, glared and waved his hand: "Don't you have a brain?" If the other party really wants the barracks, then give them to them, but what's the point of them taking the barracks? ”
The guards didn't dare to say more, so they hurried to give the order. The order was given, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the remaining soldiers and horses in the northwest military camp, under the leadership of Wu Zhengxing, the general manager, rushed towards Dongcheng. Along the way, Wu Zhengxing ignored the chaos in Beicheng.
The Dongcheng warehouse, because this is a military stronghold, so the surrounding half of the land is empty. In addition to the warehouse of Nuoda, there is a camp around, and in order to protect this warehouse, the Guining Mansion has been sending five hundred-strong troops to guard it. Even if the Tartars outside the city were attacking fiercely and there was a shortage of troops, the garrison did not draw troops and horses from here.
Although there are only 500 people, the person in charge of the warehouse in Dongcheng is Chen Yaofeng, the most capable Qianzong in Guining City. Originally, Chen Yaofeng belonged to the Mosna Tooth Tent Garrison, but because of the matter of the monkey, the original Qian Zong who was on duty in the warehouse was taken down, and Chen Yaofeng was urgently transferred here. Since coming to the Dongcheng warehouse, Chen Yaofeng did not dare to relax for a moment. Especially after the chaos in Beicheng, he kept his heart to his throat.
"Wake everyone up, one team and two teams guard the main gate, as long as someone rushes over, no matter who the other party is, there is no warrant, no matter how to kill. Three teams and four teams went to the warehouse separately to inspect them, especially the courtyard walls on both sides, leaving people to keep an eye on. The five teams stayed in the central warehouse, ready to rush to the rescue. ”
For some reason, Chen Yaofeng had a bad feeling that the rebellion in Beicheng was probably coming to the Dongcheng warehouse. The warehouse guards were quickly busy, and before the main gate could be defended, they suddenly heard a loud noise behind them.
There was a boom, as if something had collapsed. Liao Yunxiang's body trembled, and his eyes almost didn't pop out, "It's not good, Mr. Chen Qian, it's the south wall, someone must have knocked down the south wall." Niangdi, the other party really came to the warehouse. The last general will bring people over and destroy these bastards. ”
Chen Yaofeng grabbed Liao Yunxiang and said, "No, your task is to guard the main gate for Lao Tzu, and there is a disturbance behind it, and it has nothing to do with you." I'll leave it to you, I'll take a look! ”
Chen Yaofeng didn't let Liao Yunxiang go, he was afraid that this was a trap set by the other party. Even if a gap is opened in the south wall, it can be plugged in time, and it is very difficult for the other party to go deep into the hinterland of the warehouse in a short time and expand the results. But if the other party bursts in through the main entrance and scatters to make trouble, then it will be a big trouble. If you don't guard the Dongcheng warehouse, you will never know how important this warehouse is.
Ever since Yunfu took control of Tumochuan, the city of Guining has become a trading hub linking the Hanhai Grassland and Urge. The goods coming and going, as well as the materials needed for nearby soldiers and horses, were all stored in the Dongcheng warehouse. Five hundred people seems like a lot, but it is still not enough to guard such a warehouse. If it weren't for the fact that Guining City's troops were really limited at this time, he would have reported it a long time ago and strengthened the garrison of the warehouse.
Drawing his saber, Chen Yaofeng led his guards to the place where the accident occurred on the south wall, and at this time there were already two patrols fighting with the Tartars who rushed in. It seemed that the other party was only about twenty people, Chen Yaofeng roared angrily, "Rush over with me, kill this group of Tartars as soon as possible, and plug the gap." ”
Chen Yaofeng was like a fierce beast, rushing in and swinging the knife left and right, and two Tartars died under the knife in an instant. The rest of the people were obviously suppressed by Chen Yaofeng, obviously, no one thought that there was such a person in the warehouse who could fight.
Licking the blood on the blade, Chen Yaofeng grinned, his eyes revealing a bloodthirsty edge. Once he saw blood, Chen Yaofeng was like a different person. Chen Yaofeng was born at the bottom and was able to climb to the position of President Qian, which was killed by a knife and a gun, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Maybe he killed too many people, he had a heavy evil aura on his body, and many people were glared at by him, and they were all trembling.
Chen Yaofeng rushed over with people, and after a while, he killed the Tartars who rushed in. But soon, there was a loud shout at the gap, and more than fifty people broke in, and this group of people had all kinds of blades in their hands, but as soon as they fought, the defenders suffered a loss. Several soldiers were killed by the other party after only two fights.
This group of people had no cooperation, and they fought their own battles, not at all like well-trained regular soldiers and horses, but on the contrary, all of them could fight. Chen Yaofeng's eyes narrowed, and his expression became even more hideous, "You are not Tartars, you are swordsmen..... The scum actually helped the Tartars to harm their own people. ”
"Mr. Chen Qian, we know your name, and we are not afraid that you will know that we are the people of Straw Hat Mountain in the west of the city. You know our ..... Whether it's a tartar or an official or an army, whoever gives us more benefits, we will do things for whom" A strong man in black stepped forward, carrying a double knife, and his voice was like that of an old scalper, "Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, Mr. Chen Qian, offended!" ”
"Okay, what a good one who took people's money to eliminate disasters for others, I really regret that I didn't kill you before. But this time, since you're here, don't even think about going back. ”
"Hahaha, Mr. Chen Qian, a certain family knows that you are brave, but you just rely on this person now?" Before the strong man in black could speak, Chen Yaofeng waved his steel knife, his body was short, and he had already rushed out, "This person is enough!" ”
In the blink of an eye, a fierce battle took place again in the gap in the south wall, and this time, Chen Yaofeng finally felt an unprecedented pressure. These Straw Hat Mountain swordsmen are all black-hearted, and their subordinates are gradually showing signs of failure. Soon, cold sweat oozed from Chen Yaofeng's forehead, he only needed to fight for another quarter of an hour, and he would definitely be able to kill the strong man, but he might not be able to stop so many people.
With a lock of brows, the steel knife slashed down heavily, forcing the strong man to retreat, Chen Yaofeng took a few steps back suddenly, "Retreat, retreat to the center cruelly!" ”
Until this time, Chen Yaofeng still did not ask for reinforcements, but abandoned some unimportant warehouses in the south and retreated to the north. The strong man frowned, and did not rush to chase, but let the rest of the people scatter and set fire to the south.
There was a fire in the south, and the warehouse guards immediately panicked, especially the guards at the main gate, many people were already anxious, "It's bad, something went wrong in the south, let's send some people over to help." ”
"No, no one is allowed to go, let Lao Tzu stay well. There is Chen Qian in charge there, so you don't need to worry about it! ”
Liao Yunxiang was also in a hurry, but he didn't forget Chen Yaofeng's order. Regardless of whether it was the other party's plan to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, without Chen Qianzong's order, he would not dare to transfer a soldier to the past.
As time passed, the situation in the south warehouse seemed to be getting more and more serious, and the fire was not small. Just when Liao Yunxiang was impatient, the north gate finally discovered the abnormality.
An uninvited group of more than 100 people suddenly came out of the corner and killed towards the main gate. This group of people was well-trained, and some of them had strong crossbows, and crossbow arrows flew away, and a dozen of the guards immediately fell to the ground with a muffled sound. The opponent's strong crossbow is so terrible that the plank in front of it can be pierced. Due to the military importance of the warehouse, many materials are afraid of fire, so they dare not transfer musketeers to defend it.
Without the fire suppression of the musketeers, he could only meet the enemy in the most primitive way, and in just half an hour, Liao Yunxiang was a little unbearable. These people have been planning for a long time, and their combat power is fierce, and they are definitely the elite soldiers of the Tartars.
Not far from the central warehouse, Chen Yaofeng had gradually stabilized his position, and he was now almost certain that the gap in the south wall was just a feint, and the other party's real intention was to enter from the main entrance. After killing a swordsman, he stretched out his hand and dragged his own soldiers over, and shouted: "Pass my order, let the four teams go to the main gate to help Liao Yunxiang, and tell Liao Yunxiang that he must hold out until the reinforcements arrive, if a Tartar comes in, Lao Tzu will kill him alive." ”
The four teams quickly arrived at the main gate, and the defense on the verge of collapse finally held on. Liao Yunxiang was very anxious, looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements. Similarly, the Tartars, who were in charge of the main attack on the warehouse, were also anxious.
I thought that those Straw Hat Mountain swordsmen would attract some troops, but who would have thought that this guy guarding the warehouse was so ruthless, and the south side was like that, and he didn't draw a single soldier at the main gate, and even looked at sending reinforcements.
At the end of the battle, Wu Zhengxing's army finally arrived, and at this point, the Tartars' long-planned plan was shattered. Although this enemy army was completely annihilated, the situation of the defenders of the Dongcheng warehouse was also very miserable, Chen Yaofeng and Liao Yunxiang were all wounded, more than 300 soldiers were injured, and almost everyone was wounded. It can be said that as long as Wu Zhengxing comes a quarter of an hour late, the warehouse defenders will be wiped out, and the Dongcheng warehouse will also be burned.
The matter of the Dongcheng warehouse quickly spread to Tiemo. After Wang Zuohang learned of the situation, he patted the city wall and laughed three times, "What a Chen Yaofeng, if it weren't for this kid, he would really let the Tartar succeed." ”
"Well, this time it's really dangerous, if you don't urgently transfer Chen Yaofeng to the Dongcheng warehouse, what the consequences will be, it's really hard to say" Looking at the smoke in the distance, the siege was still continuing, Tie Mo smiled coldly, "Abadai, is this your last resort?" If there is no other backhand, then this time, you are doomed. ”
If the Dongcheng warehouse is burned, then the morale of the soldiers and civilians in Guining City will collapse, but if it is saved, it will be another matter.
As long as Abadai has no other way to make a move, as time goes on, the situation of the war will fall back to his iron hand.
......
Maguire has already gone into battle in person, and he has pressed all his net worth for the sake of this Guining City.
The overwhelming crowd, like a swarming tide, seemed to be able to submerge Guining City at any time. But every time, it's just a little bit, a little bit.
Climbing to the top of the city again, Maguire's iron rod was flying, and his face was covered with blood, like a killing god.
"Kill..... Han dog, get down, Guining City is our ......"
Maguire was brave and extraordinary, his iron rod was as heavy as a thousand pounds, and under his leadership, he had cleared a territory in the southern city wall, and the Tartars were rushing up the ladder in a steady stream.
After learning of the situation, Tiemo re-ascended the city wall, picked up his long knife and went up to meet him.
