Chapter 293: Divine Soldiers Descend from Heaven
In autumn, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and it is most likely to form a thick haze on mountains such as the Great Wall Ridge, and even a gust of morning wind cannot blow it away.
The party defenders of Hongzhou City did not care, because this is a common thing, they have been stationed in Hongzhou City for many years, and they are used to such spectacles, and the thick fog surrounds the green mountains, and even some spread in the direction of Hongzhou City.
But the party defenders knew that it would not be long before the fog would dissipate.
But what they didn't see was the verdant and emerald mountain, countless greens were slowly moving down, Yang Huaiyu looked at Di Qing's heart full of unhappiness, didn't he just take a small pass?
If it weren't for the 100,000 troops of the party to besiege Yanzhou City, the pass on the Great Wall Ridge would not be so easy to take, but Yang Huaiyu really admired Di Qing, and it was beyond Yang Huaiyu's expectation that he could only kill less than ten people in this battle.
"Brother Di, yesterday's battle was really beautiful, little brother admires, admires!"
Yang Huaiyu's words did not make Di Qing feel much comfortable, but showed a slightly painful expression and said, "Is the fight beautiful?" It seems to me that if those ten brothers don't die, they are beautiful. ”
There was wind under Yang Huaiyu's feet, and he stepped over the dead wood that fell to the ground with a slight jump.
"Brother Di's words are wrong, war is to kill people, horse leather shroud, dying on the battlefield is their fate, and it is also the fate of you and me!"
"So what's the point of us?"
Di Qing's words obviously stopped Yang Huaiyu, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't know the answer, so he could only say to Di Qing helplessly: "I don't know this either, so let's do it!" Anyway, I know that the meaning of my life now is to serve the country and realize my own value, and I don't know the meaning of being a general. ”
Di Qing rolled his eyes, reached out and picked up the fallen soldier on the ground, turned his head to Yang Huaiyu and said: "What you said is nonsense, I also know that I have to serve the country, this is the meaning and value of life, and the meaning of the general will be told to you when I find ......."
Yang Huaiyu quickened his pace, and Di Qing snorted: "Why did you find it first, maybe it's me?" ”
"Then a game!"
"Good!"
Peng Qi led people to guard in the ravine outside Hongzhou City for nearly a night, in order to observe the situation of Hongzhou City, and it was only at this time that Peng Qi was sure that Hongzhou City was really lax in defense.
Quietly gestured to the forbidden army beside him, and the team of hundreds of people slowly groped forward, any siege battle to take the city gate is the most important thing, if you can take the city wall, this will play a key role in the next siege battle.
Attacking a city with human lives is completely different from attacking through the gates.
Quietly touching the closest place to the city gate, Peng Qi chose to attack Hongzhou City from the east, and the direction of the attack from east to west happened to pass with the sun's rays, which was extremely advantageous for the Great Song army, and the party defenders of Hongzhou City were backlight.
The defenders on the party wall were still as careless as before, and not only that, but they were still talking in a whisper.
The soldiers at the gate of the city sat down on the ground and chatted with each other, and it was about time for them to change the guard, and they would inevitably be scolded by the superior when they slept at this time.
This Hongzhou City is the rear of the party's 100,000 troops, in order to facilitate the recent Hongzhou City is not closed even at night, although it is a little unsafe, but the party people are not worried, in their opinion, the Great Song Dynasty does not have the courage to attack Hongzhou City.
The party leader with a pheasant feather on his head kicked up the lazy soldier on the ground and said, "It's a change of guard, there was nothing unusual last night, right?" ”
"No, how can our Hongzhou City have an abnormal ......?"
Before the soldier's words could be finished, his face changed, and his body stiffened in place, which made the leader wonder: "What's wrong?" ”
The soldier seemed to turn his head, but when he twisted his head over his shoulder, he collapsed weakly and fell to the ground, and behind him was a constantly trembling crossbow arrow, and the face of the party leader changed, and a terrible voice roared from his throat: "Enemy attack! ~”
But at this time, it was already too late, Peng Qi had already pounced on a group of Great Song Dynasty forbidden troops like wolves, and rushed all the way to the city wall......
They have only one goal, to take the gates!
This is a battle of life and death, a decisive battle, the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty know the importance of their mission, which is the key to the success or failure of the siege, in order for the robes behind them to enter the city smoothly, they do not hesitate to capture the city gate at the cost of their lives.
The forbidden army in thick infantry armor did not care at all about the bows and arrows that came from a distance, this kind of thing could only leave white marks on their sturdy full-body infantry armor, and at most it pierced into the armor fragments of the armor, and the slight piercing of the flesh of the arrows aroused the ferocity of the soldiers.
The party soldiers even doubted their own eyes, if it weren't for the fact that the enemy was wearing the Great Song Infantry armor, they would even think that they were fighting a fierce beast.
Peng Qi has turned into a hedgehog, his body is full of arrows, blood is slowly dripping from his hands, even if there is a hard armor, it can't stop so many arrows, but Peng Qi is still like a mad demon, at this time he only has killing in his eyes, not only Peng Qi, but also his soldiers.
The advantage of the hard armor is that it allows them to let go of the killing of their hands and feet, and their companions fall one by one, and the battle-hardened party members quickly find a way to deal with these steel monsters, and the cracks in the armor are fatal wounds.
As long as you pay the price of three or two people, you can take down an enemy, anyway, there are only a few hundred people in front of you, and you can quickly destroy them.
The earth began to tremble, and the party members suddenly found that the stones on the ground were moving slowly, and the sound of rumbling footsteps sounded, which made them shocked, and the momentum could only indicate that there was a large army attacking the city!
The fog slowly dissipated, and the long black line appeared outside Hongzhou City, and Zhang Pu, the guard of Hongzhou City, looked at the black line and roared with a pale face: "The Song people are shameless! Shameless! ”
The captain on the side shouted, "General, what should we do now?" ”
"Kill! Kill those Song troops in the east gate, no one is left, be sure to take the east city gate, we guard the city and wait for help, maybe there is still hope, you go to Yanzhou for help, Yanzhou still has 30,000 warriors left by the king, in order to be in case of emergency! ”
"The last general is going! Take care, General! ”
Zhang Pu is a Han Chinese, but he is a party general, and the origin of this is like Zhang Jian of the Liao State, and the definition of people in this era is mostly based on national boundaries rather than race.
Zhang Pu knew that this time was definitely a bloody battle, and when he saw that these Song people were prepared, when he went to the east gate in person, he found that the city gate had not changed hands at this time, and was still in the hands of the Song army......
"What's the matter, what are you eating, only a hundred and ten Song troops have consumed such a long time, and their brigade is coming!"
The little colonel beside him spoke: "I'm afraid it's too late for General Qiyu, these Song people seem to be possessed by the gods, all of them are fierce and abnormal, and they are ......."
"And what?"
"And the enemy army has been killed under the city, should we go out of the city to meet the enemy or defend the city and wait for help?"
"Defend the city! Go to the gate of Dongcheng, you must block the city gate, I want these Song soldiers who rushed in to accompany us to the funeral! ”
At this time, Zhang Pu was already crazy, he knew best how many defenders of Hongzhou City were, but if the defenders of less than 20,000 people wanted to defend Hongzhou City under the attack of the Song army all over the mountains, this was simply like a knife.
Being able to quietly touch the outside of Hongzhou from the Great Wall Ridge, and there is no one alive from the Great Wall Ridge to report the news, this shows that the general of the Song Army is definitely an eloquent general, and everything is in their plan!
We must hold Hongzhou City until the defenders of Yanzhou City come to the rescue, after all, Hongzhou City is the rear of 100,000 party troops!
If the city of Hongzhou was occupied by the Song people, the grain route of the 100,000-strong army would be completely cut off, and the party was not the Great Song Dynasty, and there would not be so many border towns to use as logistics.
