Final Chapter. 92
After Mrs. Sardi crossed the river, there was no news of it; And the battlefield outside the south gate of Buyeo City, after she left, quickly rose to a white-hot stage. The Huashen cultists who spread all over the mountains were like mad dogs that had lost their minds, and they flocked to Buyeo City, which had not yet broken through the door wall. They don't seem to see how miserable the death of their siblings is; I could not see that the enemy's fortifications on the walls were a little denser than yesterday; In their daunting eyes, there was endless madness and bloodlust, and there was no emotion in the slightest.
Although outside the South City Gate, the fight is in full swing, cutting the skin and bones; However, compared with yesterday's fierce battle, there has been no qualitative change, except for a significant increase in the number of people participating in the siege. However, on the other hand, the main battlefield outside the West City Gate is very different from the appearance of yesterday's feint!
Whether it was a storming car, a ladder, or even a large wooden crossbow that had never been seen before, a watchtower shooting platform that was almost flush with the head of the enemy army, and the four giant trebuchets that were regarded as trump cards, all appeared on the battlefield outside the West City Gate! But with the big formation that Guo Xing put on today, it is enough to see it; Their Shenshi Army played all the hole cards at one time, vowing to swallow Buyeo City with a belt bone and swallow it into their stomachs.
Perhaps, it was the blood beads flowing from Saldi's face that aroused the resentment and resentment in Guo Xing's heart that was enough to destroy the world!
Since Sardi left, Guo Xing took two command flags, personally stood on top of the simple watchtower, and personally commanded the battle at the risk of being killed by the enemy's archers!
Although the first battle of the siege yesterday was due to an unexpected situation, the offensive was forced to be terminated; But Tian Dashan is really a villain who keeps his promises, he took his own money, and really did things beautifully and properly. After only one night, the Huashen Sect disciples, who had no intention of fighting yesterday, were not only better than ever in terms of momentum and determination, but they kept saying that "they must do whatever it takes to remove the demonic nature of the reincarnated Xingtian God"!
As for whether the enemy general Xie Tao is a human or a demon, Guo Xing doesn't care; He just doesn't want to see the living Xie Tao!
Although Guo Xing didn't know what kind of magic Tian Dashan had cast, he only needed the Huashen followers to recover and not delay the siege. Before the battle today, he found that his efforts were duly rewarded, and immediately revised the original conservative plan slightly. He not only reversed the direction of the main attack, but also transferred all the large siege equipment to the West City Gate at one time!
Because of yesterday's two battlefields, the west and south battlefields were not equal; After last night's armistice, out of inertia, the defenders of Buyeo City still used their main energy to strengthen the defense of the southern city. Therefore, the West City Gate, which had only been hastily trimmed and reinforced, did not last long at all, and collapsed to the ground under the repeated impact of the rushing city vehicles!
When the gates were opened, it was noon. After seeing the collapsed West City Gate and stirring up a piece of smoke on the ground, most of the Huashen believers temporarily stopped the offensive in their hands, pulled their necks and praised the benevolence of Huayu Tianshen; After shouting the slogan, the dust and smoke gradually became chic, and the other end of the city gate hole was slowly revealed......
Xie Tao, the commander of Buyeo City, who was wearing a scarlet cloak, was standing there with the terrifying mountain-splitting axe on his back at this time; Behind Xie Tao's body, there are still countless Buyeo defenders with sharp blades in their hands and awe-inspiring murderous machines......
When the enemy meets, he is very red; Without waiting for the decree of the senior brother in the rear to come, the leader raised the war knife in his hand and shouted "Huayu Heavenly God, Shine for a Thousand Miles", and then took the lead in stepping into the dark city gate cave and killing the "Reincarnation Punishment Heaven" whose spirituality was tainted by the evil demons!
Guo Xing, the commander of the Shenshi Army, was standing on the watchtower and carefully observing the trend of the wartime. He saw that although the gate of Buyeo had been broken, judging from the speed of his own soldiers entering the city, it was obvious that he had encountered a strong resistance from the enemy. Guo Xing believes that the soldiers on the battlefield at this time are all fanatical believers of the Huashen Sect, and there are few who have no military literacy and are even literate. The basic requirements of the regular army, such as coordinated operations and team cooperation, have nothing to do with them at all. Therefore, from the commander's point of view, he is more inclined to quickly attack the city and take the initiative to fight street battles with the Buyeo defenders who occupy a geographical advantage; In this way, it can also alleviate the disadvantage of the extremely poor tactical literacy of the Huashen cultists to the greatest extent, and can also capture Buyeo City as soon as possible on the premise of avoiding huge casualties.
If you want to quickly make a passage into the city, then you must occupy the commanding heights, that is, the western wall. Thinking of this, he immediately climbed down from the watchtower, came to the side of the deputy sent by Tian Dashan to supervise the battle, and said:
"Brother, tell your people not to just squeeze into the city gates! Occupying the commanding heights of the city wall right now is the most important thing! ”
The deputy sent by Tian Dashan to supervise the battle was leaning under a big tree at this time, crossing Erlang's legs and humming an out-of-tune tune, not to mention how idle he was. Now that he heard Guo Xing's combat instructions, he opened his eyelids slightly and replied in a lazy tone:
"You're the boss, call it yourself!"
No wonder they all say "not all the way, not into the door"! Tian Dashan's upper beam is not right, and the lower beam of this deputy is even more crooked!
However, this kind of person's thinking is also better to ponder. Considering that the current war situation was urgent, and he really didn't have time to take care of some trivial things, Guo Xing immediately took out a silver ticket from his pocket and stuffed it into the other party's hand......
"Hah...... Oy, Guo Shuai wants us to take the city first, right? ”
"The ...... of the Walls"
"You're just raising the bar, aren't they all the same? Show off that you have a book at home? ”
Guo Xing only gave a mere 100 taels of silver tickets, and for him, it was worth it to buy a "reluctant cooperation"; As for attaching a "good attitude", why don't you have to start at 500 taels of silver?
However, the old people all said that those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black. Although this deputy is as greedy for money as Tian Dashan, he really does things for Guo Xing after receiving the money! He rubbed his sleepy eyes, moved his waist, and then walked towards the battlefield without saying a word of nonsense...... But he only took three steps, turned around again, took a big burden left under the tree and carried it on his shoulder, and then raised his eyebrows at Guo Xing and walked towards Fuyu City again.
At this moment, the city wall of the western section of Buyeo City has been killed into a reincarnation road! Since Buyeo City is not a front-line city, the corridor is naturally a little narrower, and the width can only accommodate two war horses side by side. This time, Guo Xingke was ruthless, and for a section of the western city wall, he sent as many as six cloud ladders! In addition to the two that were accidentally destroyed by the fork pole, the remaining four steel-clawed ladders have already climbed the masonry of the city wall, becoming the four golden avenues for Huashen believers to grab supreme merit.
The eastern section of the western city wall, due to the crooked hit of the catapult, accidentally hit a small gap, and then it was forcibly occupied by the wolf-like Huashen believers with human lives, and firmly held in their own hands. After climbing the ladder from the eastern end of the city wall, this money-greedy deputy immediately summoned all the leaders and whispered a few words. After the order was delivered, the Huashen believers on the entire eastern city wall immediately sped up the speed of wielding their blades!
In fact, as early as yesterday, after the truce of the retreat, Chai Rang led the people and craftsmen in the city to repair and strengthen the crumbling gate of the West City. It is precisely because of this that Chai Rang knows the mystery better than anyone else: although this city gate has been reinforced, it is still overwhelmed, and it is simply unable to withstand the next round of enemy attacks.
Considering yesterday's battle, his own commander Xie Tao was still alone to resist the enemy's thousands of troops, so after some discussion with Xie Tao, he volunteered to lead the army to protect the city wall; Xie Tao led Chai Rang to select 800 strong soldiers, waiting for the enemy to break through the city gate, and then give him a head-on attack.
To be fair, Chai Rang is a veteran of the battlefield, and he is also familiar with the art of war, literate and hyphenated; When it comes to bravery, he is far inferior to the handsome Xie Tao, who is like the reincarnation of Xingtian; When it comes to yin damage and viciousness, he can't compare to a good harvest of one ear. Although he is more than a hundred times stronger than Liang Dashao, in the final analysis, he is just a competent general.
The battle he expected did not play out as planned; Now that the city gate has collapsed, the enemy army is attacking like a tide, and it actually pours up the city wall along the ladder! Caught off guard, Chai Rang couldn't think of any good way to turn the tide except for slashing the war knife in his hand quickly and shouting loudly at the same time to boost morale......
He saw with his own eyes that old brothers and friends were either hacked to death by the swarms of the enemy, or thrown off the city wall and thrown into a puddle of flesh, and the sense of powerlessness and frustration naturally intensified. Gradually, Chai Rang also went from grief at the beginning to insensitivity. He didn't lose his fighting spirit, he didn't lose his courage, he just couldn't see any hope of winning, and he couldn't think of any good way to turn the tide.
I feel both my own incompetence and the decline of the war situation.
A person's strength is already limited, and now he is on the city wall like a tide, and the matter of life and death is not up to him. Frankly speaking, Chai Rang did not have such things as "eating the king's Lu and repaying the king's grace in this life; defend a city and protect the people"; Throughout the first half of his life, he was just doing his own work; used to be a cow and a horse for Liang Dashao, and now he is fighting with dozens of times the enemy army and the head of the bloody city, all for an extremely humble and ridiculous reason in the eyes of others:
When you are a monk for a day, you have to strike the bell for a day.
In the next moment, the death knell of Chai Rang's life was struck by a Huashen cultist with a strange light in his eyes!
