Chapter 136: The duel between madmen
Wang Yu waited intently, held his breath, bent down to lower his center of gravity, clenched the long knife in his hand hard, and waited solemnly.
Because the cavalry of the Jin soldiers, the abducted horses and the Iron Float were rapidly approaching them.
What is it like to face a cavalry charge of more than 10,000 people head-on?
The earth shook under the trampling of the horses' hooves, and the land shook, sank, and dissolved, like the sea.
And the dust raised by more than 10,000 cavalry covered the sky and the sun, turning the sky into a blue-gray, and the sunlight weakly penetrated the smoke and dust, and he could barely see the golden soldiers with ghost faces in the smoke and dust.
The sound of golden drums, iron hooves, and roars painted the sonorous sound of death, which continued to flock to Wang Yu's 3,000 victorious army.
Wang Yu gasped, and his voice kept echoing in the Dou Gong and the Dang, making him have a slight illusion, as if it was a call from the underworld, and someone in his heart was constantly shouting, hurry up and get out of here!
In the face of this impact, Wang Yu took a deep breath, grabbed the dead body under his feet, and waited for the impact.
And the soldiers of the Jiesheng army, without saying a word, learned Wang Yu's movements, grabbed the corpse, and used it as a buffer for the cavalry charge.
There were no chariots, no soldiers, because the big ones had been dismantled and made into trebuchets on the string towers and goose wings, and they didn't have more wood to make the big ones.
If it weren't for the exhaustion of oil and the drying up of lamps, how could Wang Yu, as a battle-hardened general, lead his cronies to go down the stairs and fight to the death?
Wang Yu glanced back greedily at Taiyuan City.
Taiyuan is desperate, the army and civilians are out of food, there is no danger to defend, the city wall has been broken, the trebuchet on the goose wing platform is still roaring, smashing the trebuchet of the golden soldiers, and now there is no time to take care of the cavalry charge.
There are also some Han family children holding bows and crossbows in their hands.
That's enough.
Why do you complain, why is the husband afraid of life and death!
"Squat!"
Wang Yu shouted loudly, lowered his body weight, and put the corpse in his hand on his shoulder to meet the charge of Tiefutu.
In the continuous charge, the light cavalry on both sides of the abduction horse, but to the end, this kind of thing, the charging of the formation, naturally three horses connected together, the iron floating tu, is more suitable.
The speed of Tiefutu was not fast, but it was solid and powerful to rush into the camp of Wang Yu's own soldiers who did not have chariots and soldiers.
Countless soldiers splattered blood and fell to the ground, resisting the onslaught of the enemy with their own lives, and also slowing down the speed of the heavy cavalry.
Tiefutu lost his speed, and several Song people rushed up, cut off the horse's legs, dragged the knight off the horse, drew a two-finger-wide ring-headed knife, inserted it through the gap in the neck, and stabbed the Tiefutu's cavalry to death.
Occasionally, some of the soldiers struggled to hold down the cavalry of Tiefutu, thrust the arrow into the eye hole of the ghost face, and then turned it hard to kill the cavalry completely.
Of course, more Tiefutu was condescending, raised the long knife in his hand high, and slashed down, which was to draw out the Dao Dao blood injection.
The light cavalry on both wings of the kidnapping horse quickly surrounded the entire Wang Yu Jiesheng army array, surrounding and shooting non-stop, constantly harvesting the young lives in Wang Yu's army array.
War has always been so cruel.
Wang Yu was able to attack the Han army and the Khitannu without changing his face, and the Jin people also ruthlessly attacked the soldiers of the Jiesheng army.
Wanyan Zonghan frowned and looked at the battle formation in the distance, he had never seen such a tenacious defender, if this army belonged to the Jin country, it would be great, but it was a pity that they did not have such a tough army, even if they were known for their tenacity.
Pity.
This battle of Taiyuan City has consumed more time than he expected.
Taiyuan City, Bingzhou, has been stuck for more than 200 days, and Wanyan Zonghan didn't expect that he would stop in front of the earthen city wall of less than ten meters.
In the Fen River, the slightly larger stones were used by him as stones for the trebuchets of the siege city.
From the beginning of autumn to the beginning of winter, and then from the winter solstice to the beginning of spring, there were nine large-scale sieges before and after, and there were countless battles of harassment in peacetime.
Even with the Cowhide Army, he couldn't break through the city.
The Cowhide Army, an elite unit of golden soldiers wrapped in several layers of cowhide, rushed to the Kulou with fierce fire oil, intending to burn all the Kulou.
However, he was still forced back by a group of shooters who could shoot a hole the size of a coin in thirty steps.
He never thought it would be so difficult!
In this siege of the city with more than 10,000 Han'er troops and Khitannus, when he thought that victory was in his hands, this tenacious soldier still gave him enough lessons.
This magical country!
Their nobility has decayed to the point of the indignation of men and gods, what are they holding onto?
Don't they know that this gritty resistance will only lead to more slaughter?
Why are they?
This has become the biggest headache for Wanyan Zonghan these days, and he must figure this out before he can continue to go south.
Otherwise, wouldn't this brigade of only 50,000 elite soldiers be consumed before they reached Bianjing?
He soon ran out of time to think, for the battle was decided.
Kidnapping horses and Tiefutu rushed into the military formation of the Jiesheng army, interspersed with a back and forth, able to stand Taiyuan defenders, with less than two hundred people.
They stood scattered among the vast corpses, many of them covered in blood sticks, and it was impossible to tell whether the blood stains belonged to the enemy or their own.
More than 200 people stood blankly like this, until they saw Wang Yujun not far away, still standing there, as if they had a reliance in their hearts, and slowly gathered together.
But Wanyan Zonghan stood up.
What are they going to do!! Haven't they broken up yet!
Are they crazy?! No!
No madman should behave like that!
The injuries of the kidnapping horses and the Iron Float were equally severe, and many of the war horses that had lost their legs were still turning their bodies, stirring the battlefield that was already like a piece of mud.
And Wang Yu gathered his troops, stood up straight again, and raised the hemp knife in his hand again.
His thorn knife pointed in the direction of the golden soldier.
This was a respite, as long as Wang Yu's victorious army was no longer in the way of the Jin soldiers' advance, and they fled to the two flanks, the Jin soldiers had no interest in pursuing.
They are more interested in string buildings, Yanyingtai, Taiyuan City, and slaughtering and venting anger.
But more than two hundred people stood up straight like this, formed an extremely rudimentary military formation, strode across the corpse, and once again pointed the blade in their hands at the invincible golden soldier!
Why are they!
Yan Zonghan's anger is gone!
It's humiliation!
I've already defeated them!
Obviously the enemy has changed from 3,000 to 200, why can't he feel the joy of victory!
On the contrary, there was a fear buried deep in his heart!
"Rush over! Kill them! Not a single one to stay! Not a single one to stay! Kill them all! All! ”
