Chapter 241: Heading East
Gong Wei changed the appearance of a scribe in the past, he was also wearing a blood-red armor, standing at the top of the city tower and looking out, ten miles away there seemed to be a black tide, the whole sky was under the black armor more and more gloomy, as if there was a natural disaster slowly eroding towards Yuzhou.
It's not that he hasn't seen so many people in military training before, but when so many people roll in front of your eyes in unison, it seems that the entire Yuzhou has become a flat boat, and it will be swallowed by the black tide in an instant, how can this make him not nervous.
Gong Zhi also put on armor at this time, weighing more than 300 catties and wearing a special red armor, it seemed that he was particularly powerful, and his face was also covered by face armor, which was really like a god would stand on top of the city tower.
The only pity for such a peerless god is that he has a mouth, "Brother, what should we do now?" ”
At this time, Gong Wei recalled in his heart that a few years ago in Yuzhou won more with less, and was included in the military book, the general named Yu Youjun was the Confucian general he admired the most in the land of Lianghuai, so that after being appointed to Yuzhou, he has also been studying how Yu Youjun used 5,000 men to defend the 30,000 army.
Gong Wei looked to both sides and ordered: "Gong Zhi, you send five hundred people to the mountains on both sides, remember to let them bring enough bows and arrows, and then order people to go to the thatched house to collect some dung and water." ”
After speaking, Gong Wei thought about it again, "Collect some more organs of chicken, duck and fish, as well as hot oil." ”
Although Gong Zhi didn't know what his brother meant, he just asked out of trust, "How much do you need?" ”
Gong Wei was stunned, it wasn't written in this book......
He tugged at the corners of his mouth, "As many as you want." ”
The black clouds crush the city and want to destroy, the black armor is to the sun, but the sun is hidden in the clouds, there are still black clouds falling from the sky between the heaven and the earth, and the black armor Zhongzhou army on the ground complement each other, complement each other, a black cloud in the sky and a black shadow on the ground are slowly approaching Yuzhou City, from the front of the high-rise buildings in Yuzhou City, it is very impactful.
Gong Wei looked at the big cage of heaven and earth with solemn eyes, and he grabbed the herald next to him, "Go, tell the defenders on the city wall that the bows and arrows in my hands will shoot out for me, and the bows and arrows on the mountains on both sides are too!" ”
The herald straightened his helmet and hurried down the tower.
Now this Yuzhou city tower is not as unbearable as when it was still in the Great Zhou Dynasty, to say that this Xishu gateway has its value of existence, the city tower in the hands of the Xishu soldiers has been raised more than five zhang, and the entire city wall has extended a lot to both sides and the rear, it looks not only towering but also a lot more generous.
Gong Wei stepped on the city tower with his feet and had an inexplicable peace of mind, back then, he Yu Youjun could rely on the earth and the city wall that was only seven or eight zhang high to defend Yuzhou, why can't I Gong Wei rely on this towering city wall and 20,000 troops to resist this attack!
Yu Youjun has taken the lead in coming to the vanguard army, and Yue Xunyi marched hand in hand, this 10,000 army stood in the position of the 30,000 army led by Zhong Guan, only more than 1,500 zhang away from Yuzhou City, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were camped five miles behind.
Yu Youjun said without squinting: "Yue Xunyi, plus today, we still have two days to take Yuzhou City, once the two days are up, the situation in Yuzhou will not be opened, not only will there be problems on the southern expedition, but it will also be more difficult for us here, Lu Ziyu will definitely continue to increase the troops in Yuzhou City, do you have confidence." ”
After speaking, he looked at the towering tower, the fire pit he dug at the door was fifty zhang longitudinal and horizontal, three zhang deep, and the city was also brand new as iron, no longer in tattered shape, and the whole Yuzhou was solid.
Now Yu Youjun is similar to Lu Ziyu leading the army to attack, but his conditions are more harsh and much more difficult.
Yue Xunyi, a strong man, was not inferior to Gong Zhi in size, he grinned, "I have always had confidence, but being greeted by General Yu in every way, I have no confidence anymore." ”
Yu Youjun laughed and scolded, patted the horse and walked forward three or four feet, he covered his eyes and looked around, subconsciously looked in the direction of the city tower, there was a faint red-armored general who couldn't see his face clearly, he muttered: "Who is this person?" Is it an acquaintance or a newcomer? ”
Yue Xunyi took out a note from his arms, "By the way, there is a message from General Liu's subordinates who have infiltrated Yuzhou City, you were not in the big tent at that time, so you will hand it over to me, it says that the defenders of Yuzhou are about 20,000 or so, led by two brothers surnamed Gong." ”
"It's a newcomer."
Yu Youjun didn't look back, just untied the spear tied to the horse's back, the spear dragged the horse forward on the sand, Yue Xunyi stretched out his arm and shook his fist forward, and the 10,000 vanguard army began to surge forward.
"They're coming!"
Gong Wei grabbed the city wall with both hands, and he didn't care about the crumbs in one hand, staring at the dense large number of people in front of him, whether he lived or died in the future, whether it was glory and wealth or a stench for ten thousand years, it depended on whether this battle could be defended!
"Take a bow!"
Gong Wei roared, and the defenders on the city wall all raised their bows and arrows to aim at the black-armored Great Zhou army like a black tide.
The army of 10,000 intensified, and in the end, everyone was running wildly, and in less than a cup of tea, the 10,000 army came to the front of Yuzhou City.
How could Yu Youjun not know the effective range of the bow and arrow, he ordered the army to stop three hundred zhang away, this distance is a place where neither the bed bow and arrow nor the bow and arrow can shoot.
Yu Youjun only saw the guard on the city tower this time, a face that looked a little literati, and the armor he was wearing was the same as the awkward feeling that Yang Liechen was wearing.
"Hey, General Yu took a look, there was also a fat man."
Yue Xunyi laughed, the big knife in his hand pointed directly at the fat man in his mouth, Yu Youjun looked at the sight, on the city wall under the city tower, there was indeed a bunch of mountains of meat, Yue Xunyi called that person "fat" to lift him.
Yue Xunyi pursed his lips, "At first glance, he looks like a fierce general." ”
Yu Youjun sneered, "No matter how fierce they are, they won't dare to go out of the city to fight, the whole army should pay attention!" ”
As he spoke, the general who joined the vanguard shouted, "Eight thousand foot soldiers are divided into two batches, and they rush forward in turn, the first batch of impacts to one hundred and fifty zhang and quickly changes the formation, the front army becomes the rear army, and the shield is taken out to resist the arrows and withdrawn, and then the second group follows it, rushing to within a hundred zhang and withdrawing like the first batch, no matter what, don't fall in love." The remaining 2,000 archers will go into battle lightly, and when the second group of foot soldiers will rush to 100 zhang, you must step into 150 zhang for me, and then fire a volley! When the second group of foot soldiers retreats, you retreat to a distance of 200 zhang and wait for orders! ”
War is about to start.
"Drink!"
More than a dozen heralds carried banners and rode back and forth in the army, and this group of Zhongzhou troops who went to the battlefield for the first time did not have any fearful looks, and more were still eager to try.
Soon, the two groups of men and horses were separated, and Yu Youjun gave an order, and the first batch of foot soldiers rushed forward with shouts.
"Archer prepare!"
Seeing that the enemy was about to charge, Gong Wei was not ambiguous, and the soldiers on the city wall and on the hill all pointed their spearheads at the four thousand black-armored foot soldiers.
Seeing that the group of foot soldiers was getting closer and closer, Gong Wei's palms were getting more and more sweaty, and the dirt was particularly slippery in his hands, his eyes were staring at the distance, and his mouth was slightly open to count the zhang.
"One hundred and fifty zhang!"
The distance of an ordinary bow and arrow is 100 zhang, and those with outstanding arm strength can shoot 120 zhang with a full string, but if it is 150 zhang, above the city, it can really shoot through the momentum, and 150 zhang is already within the range of the bow and arrow.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Gong Weiwei shouted, a round of arrows turned into a rain of arrows to block the glimmer of the day, making the entire earth instantly darken, Gong Wei smiled obviously, "Even if you have 10,000 horses, you dare to divide your troops, even if you are blind, you can kill a large piece of this group of big fish!" ”
As soon as his smug words fell, the smile on his face suddenly froze, and the black-armored foot soldier one hundred and fifty zhang away suddenly withdrew! It was withdrawn so abruptly! Moreover, there was a large shield behind him, and his round of arrow rain barely caused any substantial damage to this group of foot soldiers, only a few hundred rounds broke through one hundred and fifty zhang, and shot at the shield again.
When the soldiers of the city wall saw the rain of arrows in the air, and did not receive the order of the lord to stop shooting, they bent their bows and fired arrows in a salvo!
"Loser! Put on airs! Stop me! ”
Gong Weisheng suddenly shouted with all his might!
Thousands of arrows had been wasted before, and the number of stop-losses in time was reasonable, within an acceptable range, but because Gong Wei was stunned for a while, he didn't know why the large number of black-armored foot soldiers retreated and were stunned, but in this vacancy, the defenders on the city tower wasted 10,000 arrows in vain.
Gong Wei walked down the city tower in a rage, ran to the city wall and shouted: "Which turtle grandson is the archer in command!" Everyone has withdrawn and shot arrows! ”
A person came from not far from the city wall, Gong Wei didn't say a word, opened the bow left and right with both hands, and a few slaps directly fanned the crown armor on the person's head and flew down the city wall.
"Do your eyes reach your belly! Obviously the enemy army has retreated, you still shoot arrows, wasting 10,000 is not enough, do you want to waste another 10,000! ”
Gong Wei was angry, if it weren't for the fact that this person was a comrade who came out of the Shudi recruit training ground with him, he would really think that this person was a traitor of the enemy army, and if the defenders of Yuzhou consumed a little, the enemy army would earn more.
This person didn't dare to speak, there were infinite grievances in his heart, how could this one hundred and fifty zhang and one hundred and sixty zhang be observed from a distance, usually the arrows are not always on this wave before the other wave, wave after wave does not give the enemy a chance to breathe, who would have thought that the group of soldiers and horses outside the city would be such chicken thieves, as if they were running training, running back and forth.
At the same time, Yu Youjun smiled happily in the rear, he just made a feint this time, to try the foundation of the defender's main general's soldiers, this defender reacted very quickly, it seemed that he was a little confused about the situation, and he had to shoot when he couldn't shoot, which made Yu Youjun earn a lot.
"Second batch! The second batch to keep up! ”
With the vanguard as a foreshadowing, the second batch also learned well.
After all, it was dragging the heavy shield back and forth without stopping and running regularly, and these first batch of people who came back were all humming and resting and gasping three hundred zhang away, and the second group had already run up during the breath, followed by two thousand archers.
Gong Wei stood on the city tower and watched another group of black-armored soldiers running over, he narrowed his eyes, his face was even more gloomy than the sky, as if he was about to drip water, he sneered, "Really be a fool?" Want to use the same move twice? ”
Gong Wei only became the enemy's main general because of the stupidity of shooting 20,000 bows and arrows from his own side just now, so he repeated the old trick and regarded him as a fool, he naturally would not be fooled, and sneered: "This time you will have no return!" Obey my orders, everyone stand by the spot, if this group of people set foot on a hundred and fifty zhang and turn to run, don't waste a bow or arrow, if they continue to run forward, put it at a distance of one hundred zhang, and hit me hard! As long as you can annihilate all the enemy forces below, even if you shoot 23,000 generals this time, you won't be blamed! ”
All the archers on the city wall listened to the herald's banner according to the herald's banner, and secretly held the bows and arrows in their hands, the arrows needed by the 10,000 city gate guards were an unusually amazing number, and there were only a dozen or so in the hands of everyone, almost only 150,000 or 60,000, don't listen to 1560,000 lots, in fact, a few rounds of shooting down, it will soon be consumed, and the arrows in the hands of these archers will shoot one less arrow.
As he spoke, the second batch of Zhongzhou Army infantry had already been killed within one hundred and fifty zhang.
Gong Wei was a little proud in his eyes, the second batch seemed to be a lot more numerous than the first batch, this time he would definitely gnaw a piece of meat on the enemy's main general, although he didn't know who the enemy general was until now, but it didn't prevent Gong Wei from hating him to the core.
