Chapter 49: The Tough City Defense

The enemy army is killed~

Dengzhou City, which had already been prepared, was not too panicked.

Lin Hu was not worried about the enemy army under the city: "My lord, this group looks very much like a regular army, but there is no heavy equipment and it is not very threatening. ”

The dense crowd on the city wall and under the city, the prefect with great confidence couldn't help but ask: "We now have 20,000 horses, can we defeat them so that we can ask the court for credit." ”

The guerrilla general Lin Hu was stunned for a moment and immediately made a bitter face: "My lord, I am incompetent to redeem the end, and it is estimated that none of us will be able to run away as soon as this city gate is opened." Under the city is an elite, and there are two or three thousand people who are the elite of the elite. ”

"How can the general see it? I think they're all well equipped, maybe they're just some chaos. Governor Lin said unwillingly that the food pressure of gathering 20,000 people to Dengzhou City is also very great!

Lin Hu shook his head suspiciously: "My lord, I can't say anything, but looking at them, I feel like I'm facing a wild girl real cavalry!" ”

No~ The eyes of those people were even colder than the wild girl, this was what Lin Hu thought in his heart, but he didn't say it.

"Then, the general will leave it to you here." The prefect turned around with some disappointment.

"Yes, my lord, I will be able to hold it." The stone wall more than five meters high and the head of 20,000 people made Lin Hu not worry about the enemy who was only 10,000.

Chen Xiong was also observing the situation in the city, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

"There are two medium cannons on the front of the city, and six small cannons, and there are hundreds of musketeers, and even more archers!"

This! Wu Liu's heart was cold, how many people would have to die if he rushed to the city.

"My lord, we also have archers, and we can barely suppress the firecrackers and their archers, but those cannons will keep our archers from getting close." Wang Wei knew the power of artillery, especially when used for defense.

Chen Xiong nodded: "Okay, let's let the first and second armies go up, but your task is to make a large number of wooden spears and wooden bench ladders for people to jump, and the wooden ladder is only three meters enough." ”

"It's the lord!" Zhang Shou nodded helplessly, they always had to rely on the lord's pro-army.

"Okay, don't care, when we have artillery and muskets, it will be the time for our Han army to really counterattack. Our Han army would rather lose for a while than fill it with human lives. ”

"It's the lord." Everyone was shocked, and they would also have artillery in the future, and they would no longer be afraid of any heroes.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty also relied on the artillery provided by the traitors to knock open the big cities and passes, otherwise no matter how powerful the cavalry was, they could only wreak havoc outside the city.

The Han army began to disband, and Lin Hu at the head of the city was immediately overjoyed.

"Okay, it seems that they are not stupid, Dengzhou City is safe and sound." After Lin Hu finished speaking, he asked the large army to go down to the city to recuperate and wait for tomorrow's battle.

Most of the Han Sixth Army, Han Seventh Army, and Han Gao Army began to go to the vicinity to cut wood, while the Han First Army and the Han Second Army held out outside the city.

After cutting a large amount of wood and eating, thousands of Han troops continued to be busy. One piece of wood is repaired and sharpened, and then it is roasted in a fire. The wooden ladder is like a simple staircase, the wooden ladder platform is two meters wide and three meters high, and it is divided into three steps. This is a wooden ladder for the scarecrow, and the structure is simple and not very heavy.

There were bonfires outside the city, and the people in the city could hardly sleep peacefully because of the noisy carpentry work.

"Damn it in the middle of the night, don't these Han soldiers sleep?"

"I don't know what they're doing."

The guards at the head of the city saw that the Han army did not sleep, and they did not dare to relax, and thousands of people accompanied the Han army in this way.

Chen Xiong finally woke up at dawn, and the Han army happened to be dining at this time. After he replenished the energy of the scarecrow and the wooden man, he let the Han army rest.

It's dawn, Lin Hu's guerrilla lord, and it's also early.

"These Han soldiers don't even have a tent."

"It's just that fortunately there is no rain and no winter, otherwise it would not be useful with the fire and the withered grass."

Seeing that most of the Han troops outside the city were lying down and sleeping, several Qian generals couldn't help but have plans in their hearts.

"Guerrilla, why don't we go out of the city and kill him."

"Yes, General, they only have about 3,000 people now, and we only need 10,000 men to completely defeat them."

"If the Han army doesn't sleep all night, it must be sleepy and tired! It's a great time for us to win. ”

Being persuaded by his subordinates, Lin Hu was greatly moved: "Okay, please ask the prefect to decide." ”

Prefect's yamen~

The prefect, who understood the situation, pondered for a while and thought: "Now we can fight with 15,000 people, and 5,000 people need to rest, just enough to leave 5,000 to defend the city." ”

"Order the guerrilla general to send 10,000 men out of the city and take 5,000 men to defend the city."

"Yes, my lord."

"Wait a minute, when they leave the city, you remember to tell the guard school~"

"Yes, my lord."

Governor Lin nodded with satisfaction, under his arrangement, it must be foolproof.

Soon the gates of the city were opened, and all 10,000 guards went out of the city to line up.

"Do you want me to wake them up?" Zhang Shou asked worriedly.

Chen Xiong shook his head: "You don't need to let them sleep for a while." ”

After Chen Xiong finished speaking, he gave orders to the grass and wood soldiers with his mind.

At this time, each member of the Han army was carrying four or five short wooden spears, and the three thousand people suddenly divided into three waves. Two hundred people were divided into two waves on the left and right, and two hundred people were divided into groups of four to lift the fifty wooden ladders.

Lin Hu saw that the Han army also moved, and he no longer waited: "Rush, rush for me, kill me." ”

"Rush~"

"Rush~"

The sound of shouts and footsteps woke up thousands of Han soldiers from their slumber.

Chen Xiong smiled coldly: "Rush to kill them all for me." ”

"It's the lord." Three thousand grass and wood soldiers shouted in response.

Rumble~~

As soon as the soil sank, the 3,000 Han army had already galloped up.

This speed, that excitement on the face, surprised the army of the guard.

"Kill, kill one person and reward one or two."

"Rush, rush, hurry~" Commanders at all levels shouted frantically, they can't lose, and if they lose, their heads will fall to the ground.

The 3,000 Han army was divided into three, of which 1,000 were in the front, and the target of the left and right armies was not the 10,000 people in front, but the city gates on the left and right.

Seven hundred meters, three hundred meters, seventy meters, a thousand Han troops drew their wooden spears.

Xiuxiu~~

A thousand short spears flew up~

Xiuxiu~~ After a few breaths, there was another shadow of a wooden spear.

Xiuxiu ~ Hundreds of guards stared, and the wooden spear had already come to him.

Sneer~~ The wooden spear brought out blood flowers.

"Ah no~" Seeing the wooden spear flying out of the body of the comrade in front of him, and then piercing into the stomach, the guards screamed in despair.

How is this possible~

A strong wooden man can even spear two people.

After the three thousand wooden spears flew out, the one thousand Han troops were only ten meters away from the enemy.

"This~" Cui Songmu was dumbfounded, the Han First Army was still charging, and the enemy army had fallen one by one.

"Ah~Ahhh

"Heh~ Quick, kill me." Fifteen hundred guards rolled halfway on the ground with wooden spears, and the red blood of that place made the ground more and more wet.

Boom~ The wooden spearman on the ground blocked the way, and the scarecrow could only jump up.

"No~" Lin Hu rolled on the spot and dodged a headshot, but a big flesh slit still grew on his shoulder.

"General~"

"Kill." Dense swords and guns chopped up the scarecrows, but more scarecrows were already flying.

Xiuxiu~~ The rain of short spears flew towards the city, and the guards who were watching the excitement hurriedly climbed down.

Under the suppression of the short spear, the Han army carrying the wooden ladder also rushed down the city.

Boom ~ Meat and iron mixed collision.

Sparks are flying one by one, and the bells are ~~

Under one or two contacts, nearly a thousand guards will come down.

"Kill~" shouted, and the guards were already torn apart.

Bumper ~ The dense weapons landed, and thousands of guards turned around and fled.

"Ah, hurry, run."

"Ah, here they are." The body of the guard was still in the air, but the two legs were still running.

"Damn it get out of the way~" The thin little guard flew close to the crowd.

The guards who were pounced on were furious, and immediately grabbed the thin comrades who were about to get up.

"Let it go, you TM."

The guards on the ground smiled: "Haha, let's die together." ”

Thousands of guards fled in confusion, and Chen Xiong immediately asked the Han army to let them go and support the city walls on both sides instead.
