Chapter 838: Killing the enemy in the urn city

Huazhou is the place of a hundred battles, Huiye Mansion is very majestic, the city wall is five zhang thick, about three and a half zhang high, the entrance of the city gate is more than two zhang wide, and six carriages can be parallel. The two gates were made of hardwood, as thick as a foot, covered with iron sheets, and there were iron cast jacks inside the gates, which were controlled by the mechanisms on the city towers, and the Western Regions Coalition had tried to hit the city gates with a rushing car, but the city gates were almost undamaged, and the stones fired by the thunderbolt cars smashed on the city gates, leaving only a few white spots on the iron sheets.

The impregnable gates of the city were opened from the inside, like shells opening to reveal the delicious juice inside, and the soldiers of the Western Regions rushed inside with a howl. The four gates of Huiye Mansion are surrounded by a square urn city, the blue brick is paved, about 25 zhang long, 35 zhang wide, the area inside is more than 10 acres, it is usually the place where the garrison army trains and cantons the troops. There is an arrow tower on the city wall, and the soldiers who besiege the city condescendingly are like catching turtles in an urn.

As the commander-in-chief, Wu Jiepang did not rush into the city, and listened to the movements of Zheng Jun on the city wall outside the city gate, Zheng Jun was shouting on the city wall, and there was the sound of weapons colliding, which sounded very chaotic, and it seemed that the Hua family had launched it in the city.

The Western Regions army poured into the urn city like a tide, and the fire in the urn city was dim, and there was a Zheng general wearing armor with several people inside. As a special envoy, Han Zhirui (Han Liangqing's second son) urged him to step forward and asked, "Who are you and where is Uncle Hua?" ”

The man replied: "I am Hua Wenlei, Master Hua is fighting in the city, you should follow me into the city." The firelight flickered, reflecting Park Tianhao's face. Han Zhirui had only heard of Hua Wenlei's name, but he didn't see Hua Zheng hesitate in his heart, and continued to ask, "Where is Uncle Han?" ”

Pu Tianhao urged the horse to gallop towards the inner city gate, and said as he walked: "Uncle Han is in the city to answer, hurry up, the garrison in the city has received the news and is about to come." ”

Han Zhirui was a little suspicious in his heart, but it was inconvenient to ask at this time, and the Western Regions army beside him was like a tide, so he had to rush forward with the current. Park Tianhao galloped through the inner city gate, Han Zhirui followed closely behind him, only to hear the sound of "squeak" above his head, and the thousand catties slowly fell. Han Zhirui knew that it was not good, and the whirling horse was about to run back, but Park Tianhao shook his long arms, reached out and grabbed the silk silk around his waist, and grabbed Han Zhirui from the horse with force.

Qianjin put down, and the soldiers of the Western Regions in front of him knew that they had been ambushed, and turned to rush back, and the city gate was still hugging in, and in a moment there were more than 3,000 people in the urn city. A gong sounded, torches were lit around the urn city, countless Zheng soldiers stood by the wall with bows and arrows, Jiang Anyi looked at the Western Regions soldiers in the urn city like headless flies in armor, and ordered: "Fall, shoot." ”

Wu Qiaopang did not rush into the city, restrained the army not to be congested, listened to the sound of the gong at the head of the city, saw the thousand catties slowly falling, and shouted "Not good, retreat quickly", and was in the middle of the plan.

The door was put down, the door was closed and the dog was beaten, and Uqiaopang knew that the soldiers inside were difficult to rescue. After discussing the contingency plan in advance, Uchopang ordered: "Sound the horn, attack." ”

The sneak attack failed to attack, the horn sounded in the night sky, countless torches were lit, the south gate turned into a sea of fire, the thunderbolt cart "rumbled" forward under the traction of the horse, and was more than 200 steps away from the city, and began to bury piles and fill stones for launch.

There has been no major change in the urn city, and the army in the western regions of the city has fallen like ears of wheat in the wind, with dead and wounded everywhere. The few who remained dodged the arrows with shields and horses, delayed the time, and had already flipped over

No wind and waves.

On the arrow tower, Jiang Anyi looked at the Western Regions army outside the city, and the continuous firelight reflected the night sky red, and he could see dozens of thunderbolt cars lined up, preparing to launch stones into the city. Fighting against the desert people, Wang Keming tried to capture a few thunderbolts many times, but the desert people were very well defended and could not capture them at all.

More than 200 steps, such a distance can only be shot by a winch crossbow, Jiang Anyi ordered: "Destroy the enemy army in the urn city, clean up the corpses, and prepare to go out of the city to kill the enemy." Winch crossbow and shoot two arrows at the thunderbolt. ”

The theoretical range of the winch crossbow was as far as 600 paces, and the ten winch crossbows on the south wall "rolled" and opened, and there were several loud "collapses", and the crossbow arrows as thick as arms let out a scream that broke through the air and shot towards the thunderbolt.

"Peng", a giant crossbow pierced on the frame of the thunderbolt, and the momentum carried the thunderbolt to turn sideways and overturned, and soon the thunderbolt that fell to the ground was lifted up again, and the impact was not great. The ten crossbow arrows were missing the target, which had little effect on the thunderbolt, but shot down several Western Regions soldiers who could not dodge.

"Boom", countless black shadows made a loud noise and rose into the air, Jiang Anyi felt that the entire southern city was slamming loudly, and the city walls that were hit by the boulder were trembling slightly. With a "bang", the corner of the arrow tower was hit by a flying stone, and it collapsed and collapsed, and Guan Pingzhong beside him said: "Lord Jiang, the arrow tower is dangerous, let's avoid it under the city." ”

Jiang Anyi walked out of the arrow tower and saw the soldiers on the city wall hiding behind the wall, the stones smashed on the top of the city and smashed the green bricks, and the remaining momentum continued to roll up, and a stone flew towards Jiang Anyi. Jiang Anyi's luck was in his arm, he flew forward and slapped the stone, the stone the size of the grinding plate was shot down, Jiang Anyi felt that his arm was numb, and he was really angry, and the stone smashed had the force of hundreds of catties, and when it fell on the person, the bones were broken and the tendons were broken.

The people of the Western Regions began to attack the city under the cover of throwing stones, and countless foot soldiers followed the rushing cart like ants, carrying ladders, pushing and hitting trees to the city wall, and there were generals on the top of the city shouting: "Get up quickly, prepare bows and arrows, the people of the Western Regions are attacking the city." ”

The ditch under the city had been filled in the previous sieges, and the Western Regions army rushed straight to the bottom of the city, put the ladder on the city wall, and began to climb up. Light horsemen cruised along the city walls and shot arrows upward. Above the city, Zheng Jun leaned out of the wall and shot arrows and stones, and the Western Regions Army that climbed the ladder kept screaming and falling, and Zheng Jun also had people hit by falling stones, or were shot by cold arrows under the city, screaming and vomiting blood and falling to the ground......

The car at the gate began to hit the city gate, shaking the earth on the city wall and falling. "Pour oil, ignite the fire", the officers and soldiers defending the city obviously had a countermeasure, the hot oil fell from above, and then several rockets were shot on the oil, and the fire of "Teng" burst out, and the Western Regions army operating the rushing car was full of fire, screaming and rolling on the ground, and the ground was also oil, and soon became a burning man, unable to move again. The hot oil ignited on the ladder, turning the ladder into a long torch, and clusters of fire rose from the east and west outside the southern city, and the smell of burnt fire drifted with the wind, and the shouts of killing rang out.

The people in the city had already been alarmed, Hua Sicheng and Yao Changfeng took the government soldiers to patrol the streets, in order to prevent people with ill intentions from making chaos, and the government soldiers shouted as they walked, "The people rest assured, Lord Jiang led the army to kill the enemy, and then went to the government office at dawn to listen to the news, stay at home, and are not allowed to go out, and those who violate the order will be beheaded." ”

The roar and shouting of killing were in the ears, how could the people in the city sleep peacefully, and many people got up in front of the statues of gods and Buddhas to pray and hope

Lord Jiang can kill those damned Western Regions troops as soon as possible and restore the peace of the past.

Jiang Anyi killed the people from the Western Regions who climbed the city, and said to Guan Pingzhong: "Can the urn city be cleaned?" ”

Guan Pingzhong took charge of the overall situation and said: "The city has been cleaned up, more than 3,200 enemies have been killed, and according to the orders of the lord, General Jiang Anyong has led 3,000 light cavalry to wait under the city." ”

Jiang Anyi nodded and said, "I'll lead the army to rush and kill for a while, see if I can take a thunderbolt car back, and you will defend the city." ”

Guan Pingzhong said with a smile: "I wish my lord a prosperous and victorious martial arts!" ”

In the urn city, the smell of blood is strong, and the corpses of those Western Regions troops are temporarily piled up at the corner of the city, and by the light of the fire, you can see that the ground is covered with blood, and you can feel the sticky shoes when you step on it.

Jiang Anyi turned over his horse, took the thunder-piercing gun handed by Huang Zhu, and raised it high into the air. Three thousand light cavalry, in addition to Jiang Anyong, He Xigui, Park Tianhao and others, half of them have followed Jiang Anyi to rescue Hecheng County, experienced the feat of retreating with 3,000 light cavalry to retreat Rong Mi's 100,000 army, and have great trust in the commander Jiang Anyi.

Seeing Jiang Anyi raise his spear, many people couldn't help waving the weapons in their hands to make peace, and Park Tianhao shouted loudly: "Victory, victory!" ”

"Victory! Win! The cry echoed neatly and forcefully in the urn city, stirring up the blood in everyone's chest, and the morale was high. Jiang Anyi turned the horse's head and shouted: "Open the city gate." ”

The city gate slowly opened, and the burning car blocked in front of the door, illuminating the hole in the city gate. Jiang Anyi rode his horse forward, stabbed his spear forward, and plunged into the crashing wood of the rushing car. The diameter of the hit wood is more than a foot, the length is more than zhang, and the weight is a thousand catties, and the pillar body is burning with a raging fire at this time. Jiang Anyi held the gun in both hands, dantian luck, his arms were forced, and he lifted it up with a loud shout, and the crashing wood was lifted high from the rushing car, and the pillar of fire was particularly eye-catching in the night.

Behind him, Zheng Jun shouted loudly, "General Divine Power" and "Great Courage", and the Western Regions Army not far away gasped when they saw Jiang Anyi's bravery. Jiang Anyi shook his arms and threw the burning Chong Wood forward, and the Western Regions Army that was blocking the road was knocked down, and the screams of pain rang out.

Charcoal hissed, shook his head and tailed and rushed forward, Jiang Anyong and Park Tianhao guarded Jiang Anyi on the left and right, and the other Zheng troops rushed towards the Western Regions Alliance Army like dragons out of the water.

Next to the thunderbolt car, Wu Jiepang saw Jiang Anyi flying into the wood, and couldn't help shouting: "Good brave, good man." Someone, shoot an arrow at him. ”

Arrows rained down, charcoal was covered with horse armor, and arrows only shot at the horse. This horse armor was inspired by Jiang Anyi's heavy riding and sent a letter to Mr. Zhang in Pingshan Town, entrusting him to recruit skilled craftsmen to make it, and it cost 150,000 taels of silver to make five pairs.

This horse armor is made of finely tanned cowhide, repeatedly soaked in oil and dried, the best part of the selection is staggered and overlapped in three layers, and then fixed with silver wire, the price of 30,000 taels per pair is three times more expensive than that of Zheng Jun. But the price is worth it, this horse armor is lighter than the heavy armor configured by Zheng Jun, but the effect of resistance is not bad at all, Zhang Keji mentioned in the letter, this armor can not be shot through by arrows at twenty steps, and the knife cannot be cut through.

Ma Kai was sent to the capital a year ago, coinciding with Jiang Anyi's imprisonment in Dali Temple, and has been idle at home, and when Jiang Anyi was released from prison, he immediately went out to Huazhou, and this is the first time to check the effect of Ma Kai.
