Chapter 814: Onslaught
The general of Wei, Yanghu, also sent medicine to Lu Kang, the general of Wu, this paragraph was cited as a good story, not to mention, the protector did not send medicine in vain. It is said that the public medicine of the protector was exchanged for very important information.
Seeing Li Xiaogong come in, Leng Feng told him about the intelligence.
Li Xiaogong thought for a while before saying, "It's worth it, it's worth exchanging Ashina Helu's life for these." What's more, if Helu died in front of the battle, the Turkic side would definitely hate Gaochang even more, but it would not be good. ”
If it were normal times, Datang would not care if the enemy would go crazy, but the current Gaochang is indeed in crisis.
Leng Feng smiled bitterly: "Don't comfort me, in the end I made a mistake, I'll talk to Wuli Sima when I go back, and write this down." ”
Li Xiaogong knew that Leng Feng still felt that his approach was inappropriate, since this is the case, just remember it, anyway, after the war, the commander will always do something to make the civil officials spray and let the emperor catch the little tail.
It's conventional.
Seeing that Li Xiaogong yawned, Leng Feng said: "If you are tired, just rest, from today onwards, we will rotate day and night, and there must always be someone in charge of the overall situation." ”
Li Xiaogong nodded and went back to rest.
Leng Feng put on a cotton coat and decided to make another round.
It is impossible for the Turkic Western Regions coalition forces to be in a stalemate with Gaochang all the time, and when they are ruthless and dare to fight for casualties, it is time to officially attack Gaochang.
Outside the city, Ashina Ayi made up an excuse and successfully returned to the camp.
Ashina Helu was fortunate that he was not allergic to penicillin, and after using this medicine, which requires a syringe to be injected into his body, his fever subsided in the first half of the night.
After making sure that his fever had subsided and his cough was not so violent, Ashina Ayi breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to go back to rest.
At this moment, Ashina Helu opened his eyes: "Sister." ”
"Huh?"
Ashina Ayi sat back down and waited for his brother's next step.
Ashina Helu thought for a long time before saying, "If we break through Gaochang, I'll catch that Leng Feng and give it to you, okay?" ”
Ashina Ayi smiled helplessly and patted his brother's head: "Fool, do you think you can catch him?" Although he is not an official general of the Tang Dynasty, I know that you will never be able to capture him, at most his corpse. ”
She didn't hide her intentions from her brother anymore.
Helping Helu tuck the quilt, Ashina Ayi left his brother's tent.
Ashina Helu clenched his fists, although he hated Leng Feng very much, but he didn't want to see his sister just like this, lonely and old.
He decided that he would definitely capture that man named Leng Feng back to the Turks alive!
Three days later.
The cavalry, which had been harassing continuously, did not reappear, but a large number of troops left the camp and slowly approached Gaochang.
Li Xiaogong happened to come over to change shifts with Leng Feng, and when he saw the enemy's battle, Li Xiaogong had a headache and said, "They are going to officially attack!" ”
Leng Feng nodded, reached out and took out a red cloud-piercing arrow from the arrow box behind his back, and shot it into the air.
Nowadays, the four walls of Gaochang are not connected to each other, and can only communicate with cloud-piercing arrows.
After receiving the message, the eight-bull crossbows, trebuchets, and cannons that had been hidden on the various city walls were pushed out.
Since it is a formal battle, then it is no longer possible to hide clumsy, and it would be the most stupid thing to do if the battle situation went wrong when the situation was urgent because of the clumsiness at the beginning.
The gunners who were in charge of firing the guns were now equipped with telescopes.
For more than ten years, Yan Liben has completely overcome all the problems of the telescope by himself. The telescope he made, except for the telescope whose telescope magnification is not as good as Leng Feng's, there is nothing too wrong with it.
Before the Turkic Western Regions coalition began to disperse their troops and besiege the city on all sides, the four cannons on the western city wall were the first to fire!
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Shortly after the four roars on the city walls, the same four roars rang out from the ranks of the Turkic Western Regions Alliance.
The artillery shells blasted out four large craters in their camp, and the surrounding people turned on their backs, and the war horses suddenly went crazy a lot. Before the official battle, they ushered in a foul-like blow from the Tang Army.
So far, what is not a foul?
Although they suffered a sullen loss at the beginning, the Turkic Western Regions Alliance still did not retreat, but rushed over with the fastest speed with the madness of the war horse.
These days, they have been studying how to deal with Datang's gunpowder weapons, and the final result is - they can't deal with it.
The Tang army defended the city, they attacked the city, and there was no way to disperse the lineup!
In this case, there is no other way than to use human life to top!
The cavalry that rushed to the front was blown away from time to time, but then more cavalry, trampling on the corpses of their companions and horses, rushed forward.
Seeing that the enemy was already approaching the city wall, Li Xiaogong said to Leng Feng, "Order." ”
Leng Feng shook his head, and instead ordered the soldiers to use ordinary bows and arrows to meet the enemy.
"Wait, this time, it's too wasteful, wait for their lineup to be more dense."
After speaking, Leng Feng also took out his bow and arrows and participated in the battle.
Outside the city of Gaochang, the soldiers took advantage of the time when the Turks were scared to re-bury the thunder.
It would be a waste to ignite it now, or to use a gunpowder weapon to mislight it.
Seeing the Tang army counterattacking with ordinary bows and arrows, the eyes of the great elder Tuyuhun lit up: "Sons, the Tang people don't have that kind of magical weapon anymore, rush!" ”
Hearing the words of the Great Elder, the soldiers rushed even more vigorously.
The first group of cavalry arrived at the city, and they rode to the gate of Gaochang and slashed with their swords.
But their actions were doomed to be useless, and the gates of Gaochang were wrapped in iron sheets as thick as two inches, and it was a little difficult for even artillery to blast them open, let alone chop them with a scimitar.
Seeing that chopping was useless, the first group of cavalry dismounted and began to push the city gate with manpower.
There is usually a latch behind the gate, and as long as the latch is broken, the gate can be opened.
Inside the city gate, Zhang Fan led a team of soldiers to wait here.
They didn't worry at all that the gates would be pushed open.
Even in peacetime, three pure iron latches were set up at the Gaochang City Gate, but now in wartime, the number of latches has increased to six.
Six iron latches, unless the enemy also has gunpowder weapons, don't try to break through the city gate at all.
A soldier was so nervous that he couldn't hold the bow and arrow in his hand, and when he heard the noisy voice of the enemy outside, he couldn't help but say to Zhang Fan: "General, let's shoot." ”
Yang Fan shook his head: "Wait, it's still too early!" ”。
There are only about 100 enemy soldiers outside the city gates, which is too few!
Through the small hole in the high place of the city gate, when he saw that the enemy had filled the hole in the city gate, Zhang Fan took out a thunderbolt: "It's time, shoot!" ”
