Chapter 236: The First Fierce General
Above the walled city. Most of the people died. The puppet Qi army oppressed these civilians to camp and defend the camp. Roll wood. Kerosene. But as soon as the people show their heads. The Hedong Black Armor Army under these camps released arrows.
In this way. The casualties of the puppet Qi army were greatly reduced. And the common people suffered. There are both strong men and strong women. Death is everywhere. The skin is whitened by the rain.
And these attacking tools of the Hedong Black Armor Army. They are used when the weather has not yet rained. but it was burned by the oil poured on the wall. He also opened the gate and sent a team of Jīng sharp men and horses out to fight back and burn.
Both sides were still wearing different soldiers' coats. Just dying together in layers. Burnt on top of the tapping gear. There are charred corpses still hanging.
Under the camp. There are gaps that have been dug up everywhere. Around the gap. It's all big shields and rocks that have been discarded. In the midst of heavy rain. The rammed earth is soft. The besieging army swooped down to the root of the city. Supported by a rain of arrows stacked in the back. Desperately planing the city. Just dig the gap. Not the big teams poured in.
But on the city wall, a batch of them poured and a batch of them, just to smash down the rolling wood, the hot dung, the ash bottle, the golden juice.
After the fight, the guard runs out. The guards suffered heavy casualties. Just dismantle the wooden houses built by the generals in the camp. Can be used large wooden masonry and stone. They all smashed down.
This is yet another offensive failure. A city wall. A layer of corpses was laid on top of it. Some of them are not dead. Just tossing and wailing in the muddy waters. Man poured with boiling hot manure. None of the eyebrows are visible. Just stumbling around. Pink flesh exposed. Everyone is creepy to watch. No one knows. The next turn is not yourself.
Above the camp. The corpses were also stacked higher than the battlement. Blood flowed down the wall. Such heavy rain. It is also not clean.
The puppet Qi army guards the people. It's just moving like the walking dead. Regurgitating corpses. It was a sergeant from Hedong. stripped of his clothes and leather armor. The man went down and took the mat and buried it. If it were the people. It's just a stripe down.
Tens of thousands of Li Cunxiao's department. Covered in mud and water, he withdrew. Outside the camp, the head of the black armor army in Hedong was densely popped out. Watching the puppet Qi army fight like a turtle. The embarrassed appearance of never coming out again. I don't know who laughed and scolded first. Then there was a burst of laughter.
The generals of the puppet Qi army on the wall of the wall all had their faces sinking. Slowly retreat. Descend the stairs. clinging to the inside of the camp. A greenhouse was erected. Dozens of hungry and tired pseudo-Qi soldiers stood guard in the rain outside. The corpses brought down from the city walls were not buried. It's just stacked like stacks of wood at the base of the city wall. Almost one person tall. Blood and water mixed with mud. Let the ground be purple and black.
In the greenhouse. But it was the wounded soldiers who were tossing and wailing. There is also a couch in the shed. Lying on his face was the tall body of Huang Chao. His face was pale. The white cloth wrapped around his body was stained with blood. But he still tried his best to support half of his body with the support of his own soldiers. Whispered to comfort the wounded soldiers not far away.
Wounded soldiers who were closer to him. They are trying not to make too much howling sound. Huang Chao's face is bleak. But still sè calm.
The Hedong Army has already caught up. The war has come to this point. Huang Chao demolished all his gorgeous temporary palaces in the camp. Used for defense. It can be seen that the Hedong Army is brave.
"Thirteenth Master. Checkmate. We can't attack it. Under heavy rain. The bow and arrow missed the head. Pounce on the city. The bows and arrows that support us are scattered. Puppet Qi defenders on the camp. You can straighten your waist and hit us with earth and stones. The brethren slept in the wilderness. Eat dry cakes. You have to brave the heavy rain to attack the city. It's not worth it."
A general reported truthfully to Li Cunxiao.
Li Cunxiao pondered for a moment. He is brave. But he's not stupid either. Know how it goes. Even if the Hedong Army captured, it suffered heavy losses. It's clear that it's not cost-effective. You can't do anything that isn't cost-effective. So he said, "Give the order to go down. Attack is timed out. Rest at the gate of the camp of the puppet Qi army."
That's it. The two sides entered a stalemate. The people inside don't come out. People from outside can't attack.
In the camp greenhouse. But it was the wounded soldiers who were tossing and wailing. There is also a couch in the shed. Lying on his face was the tall body of Huang Chao. Huang Chao's face is bleak. But still sè calm. Lin Yan walked over. Huang Chao's pro-soldiers all dodged away. Let him come closer.
Huang Chao turned his head and saw that it was him. He laughed in a low voice: "Yan'er. How is it. Knocked back again yes. Listen to that............ He also sent down many of his brothers' corpses............ These rìzi. Just hard work for you............"
Lin Yan's tall body. Apparently has lost a lot of weight. Although the spirit is not diminished. But everyone can see this haggard from the heart. He approached the Yellow Nest without a word. leaned closer and whispered, "Uncle Huang. I can't hold it up for long............ The houses in the camp are almost demolished. Nearly half of the soldiers were killed or wounded............ While there is still some strength. Heavy rain. Changhao is also not completely surrounded. I took advantage of the night to protect the emperor's uncle and protrude............ I'm here to stay. Never disgrace Uncle Huang."
Huang Chao chuckled under his breath. Just looked at Lin Yan. Slowly shook his head: "A half-life battle. It's been defeated again and again. In a dilemma. Get out. It's just the walking dead. What does it taste like to be alive. Male husband. Can't eat five. Wuding cooking. That's all there is to it...... Somebody won't go...... Yan'er. Tell me about it. It can last a few more days."
Lin Yan silently raised five fingers. Huang Chao wants to laugh. Eventually, it turned into a violent cough that shook the lobes of the lungs. Huang Chao was wounded in the lobe of his lung by an arrow during a major battle. The injuries are extremely serious. It's two more rì road bumps. He can make it. Already because of the strong body. Unusual from ordinary people.
"Five days is enough. My athletes. He won't leave me behind....... Qin Zongquan is even more ambitious. He won't let go of this opportunity. will not let go of this opportunity to hit the Tang Army hard. Even if you read it wrong. It's just death."
……
Countless hands pulled Li Cunxiao under the shield. More tall bodies blocked in front of him. Dozens of people on top of a heavy wooden bridge. Like a great oar. Just rush to the city.
Many of his subordinates will rush to the front. Just protect Li Cunxiao. Biting the knife. Add a hand to come in. Just desperately rushing to the front.
There were already puppet Qi army guards on the top of the camp who had seen the wooden gas. Raised by countless hands. Just screaming in panic. Heavy rain in the weather. Of course, it limits the means of the city-raiders. It also limits the means of the defenders. At least ignite the attacking tools. It's embarrassing.
More people raised the rolling wood and smashed it under the cover of their shields. Others leaned out and began to shoot with bows and arrows.
