Guo Shao looked at the north in the morning light and thought silently: Noble queen, beautiful Fu Jinzhan , I will not let you down.

The morning light dispelled the fog, and the morning sun brought warmth to the earth; Just as Guo Shao's heart is excited at this moment, he wants to praise all this, it is the sun that makes life, it is the fragile life that makes the earth vibrant and enchanting, although they are short and fragile, but they try their best to bloom beautiful in every moment.

He turned his head to the generals beside him and said: "Many people will die in war, but Qingshi is a history of war, human beings have just learned to use stone tools to war, and there will be no real peace without experiencing war!" ”

Yang Biao replied after hearing this: "Being a soldier eats food and sells his life, that's it." ”

Guo Shao: "......"

Yang Biao, who has a cheap mouth, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!

Outside the city of Haozhou (now Linhuaiguan Town, Fengyang County, Anhui Province), a whole row of soldiers held the horns and puffed out their cheeks, and the vigorous sound of "Woo ......" tore through the sky. "Knock knock...... a big man in front of the erected drum, desperately wielding a double hammer to hit the drum surface.

A hovering eagle in the air startled and rushed into the deep space in the distance.

"Huh!" Luo Yanhuan, who was in front of the east of the city, drew his sword and raised it diagonally into the air. In front of it, an embroidered tiger flag slowly fell forward, parallel to the ground. The tiger on the banner was flattened, and it swung in the wind, and suddenly it was like a tiger lying on the ground, ready to jump at any moment, "Whoa! There seemed to be a roar looming in the cacophony.

"The Zhou army will win!" A shout kicked off the attack.

The crowd shouted, and the sound resounded through the sky, shaking the mountains and rivers. The crowd, the iron armor, with the rushing carts, battering rams, ladders, bed crossbows, began to slowly surging towards the city walls, like a flood, like the tide of the sea!

Luo Yanhuan nervously held the hilt of the sword, and touched the shoulder scarf around his neck with one hand, and the red silk was actually embroidered with flower petals, which were from Mrs. Luo's hand.

has been poor for many years, and now he has been promoted to the military capital and has a history of assassination, and he can get a lot of money when he returns to Beijing, and his wife and concubine will definitely say that Ah Lang is so powerful! Luo Yanhuan's eyes widened, gritting his teeth and hoping to survive this battle. Together with countless people, he walked through the mist and with his back to the morning light towards the gate of Haozhou.

…… Haozhou was filled with smoke and fire, and arrows rained down. Rockets flying in the air are like swarms of fireflies.

Emperor Chai Rong led a team of civil and military officials and elite horsemen to run around the periphery, watching this scene, and there were attacking men and horses everywhere. People say that Guo Shao is soft-hearted, such a large area of the whole line of siege, can thousands of people die in a day? If it is consumed like this every day, the Tiger Jie army will be exhausted in half a month!

However, Chai Rong didn't plan to interfere with Guo Shao's siege, just watched from the sidelines.

At this time, he turned around and pointed to the warships of the Zhou army gathered in the north of the city, and said: "Order Han Tong to move the catapult to the ship, and hit the water gate to reinforce the Hujie army to attack the city." ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, a fast horse suddenly rushed over and shouted: "The Zhou army has won a great victory, and the left wing of the Hujie army has captured the East Gate Moon City!" ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Wei Renpu sighed: "It's only been less than an hour, and the door has been broken? Haozhou is not guarded by Chai Kehong? ”

Chai Rong laughed "haha", looked back and said: "Guo Shao Pocheng is really powerful, it's better to call him Guo Pocheng!" Let's go, I will go to the East Gate Moon City to personally reward the soldiers. ”

The soldiers laughed.

The minister couldn't persuade him, so Chai Rong took his men and horses to the front line. When I went up to the tower of Yuecheng, I saw that the city was full of people, and the soldiers were shot one after another by the thick smoke and arrows, all of whom were elite soldiers in the left wing of the Hujie Army...... It is really rare to directly attack the city with elite soldiers.

When Guo Shao heard this, he came to the city to pay a visit, and said excitedly: "** Lu Mengjun, the general of the city guard, and Wang Chong, the general of the subordinate department, mutiny during our siege, the city gate was in chaos, and our department took the opportunity to break open the city gate with a battering ram and rushed up to capture Yuecheng!" ”

"Where is Wang Chong?" Chai Rong asked.

A ** general stepped forward to greet him and said, "The last general will knock on the Emperor of the Great Zhou!" Lu Mengjun is brutal by nature, and he kills innocently. In the past, his staff Zhou Duan stepped on the black yarn and scolded. The last general was unconvinced, but endured it, and waited for this day to make him look good! ”

"Very good, I will reward you very much." Chai Rong said happily.

Guo Shao suddenly shouted: "Da Zhou Tianzi is looking at his brothers here, he doesn't need to die at this time, how long will he stay?" ”

The army shouted: "Fight for the emperor!" ”

The soldiers scrambled to attack the female wall at the junction of the moon city wall and the main city wall, but fierce fire oil was poured on it, and the fire soared to the sky. Everyone went up to extinguish the fire with sandbags on their backs, and the soldiers who were good at shooting shot with bows and arrows.

Under the main city gate, the soldiers of Zhou carried the fierce fire oil captured from Shouzhou and poured it on the city gate. However, the city gate was covered with a thick layer of thin mud, and it could not be burned for half a day. The battering ram was pulled into the urn city, "Bang! Bang! "The loud crash was like the beat of a drum.

Catapults were also dragged in from the urn gate in the midst of the surging crowds, and there was chaos on the walls. Two Tang soldiers lifted a bucket of fierce fire oil, and suddenly there was a "whoosh", and a rocket hit the oil barrel.

"Boom!" A large ball of fireball rose into the sky, and the two Tang soldiers screamed, and the oil barrel fell directly on the city wall, and the fire was filled with thick smoke. The surrounding ** soldiers scattered in a hurry and scrambled to escape.

Sergeant Zhou recklessly climbed the stairs to the female wall of the main city wall in the thick smoke, and the ** chaotic soldiers on it were bombarded, but they couldn't contain a number of Zhou soldiers, and more and more people climbed up.

Guo Shao saw that there was no discipline and no way to defend here, so he turned around and said to a general: "Chuan Zuoyou, order the cavalry of the Third Army to enter the city and prepare to storm into the city!" ”

He bid farewell to the emperor, came to the herald team that had been temporarily moved, and issued more than a dozen military orders in a row. Zuo You was writing in a hurry, while telling his subordinates to check the font size, he kept wiping his sweat, and the expression on his face could no longer find that calm smile, and he was so nervous. The military order was issued very slowly and troublesomely, and Guo Shao realized that this set of things was not so easy to use...... After this war, we had to learn from other generals, follow the local customs, and use the experience and methods of this era.

After a while, I saw the young strong man Deng Fei enter the city first, and hundreds of elite horsemen under his command rushed into the urn city, and the army rode and shot at the wall, "crackling" was very dense.

At this moment, the city gate was suddenly smashed open by the battering ram! The city gate was opened, and I saw that there were some Zhou soldiers standing inside the city gate, and the city gate was opened by them. Deng Fei outside rode away without saying a word, and led the cavalry into the city first.

Hurried footsteps sounded behind, and I saw that the infantry of the Third Army led by Yang Biao was trotting, forming a queue of troops, countless iron helmets flashing, cherry spears like a forest, extremely majestic. The Tiger flag fluttered above the crowd, and it read: The Third Army on the Left Wing of the Tiger Jie Army.

In accordance with the military order, the vanguard cavalry of the Zhou army first ignored the city wall and advanced directly from the central avenue to the depth of the city. Almost all the cities in the world that function as military strongholds have two spacious main roads in the north, south, east and west, so that troops can be transferred to various places unimpeded during defense.

Deng Feibu rushed along the avenue very smoothly, and there were more Zhou soldiers riding behind him.

At this moment, suddenly there was a "bang" in the streets and alleys on both sides!

Deng Fei secretly exclaimed, and sure enough, he suddenly saw the burning straw in the air and the bamboo tubes with white smoke flying one after another. When I looked to the left and right, the horse-drawn cart was crackled and whipped by some soldiers, and in an instant, a fire broke out on the cart and smoke billowed from it. A group of Tang soldiers rushed to kill from both sides.

"Kill!" Deng Fei shouted, and led the army to ride his horse to meet the battle. At this time, the street was filled with white smoke, thick smoke was everywhere, and the soldiers kept coughing and could not distinguish things.

The shouts and killings on both sides overshadowed one wave after another, and I don't know how many Tang soldiers rushed from all directions. Everyone is fighting on the avenue and can't see anything.

At this moment, suddenly a man on horseback ran and shouted, "We are in ambush!" Guo Dashuai ordered, the whole army retreated! ”

Deng Fei followed the voice and shouted, "What about the military order? ”

The man on horseback said: "The war is critical, and Guo Dashuai is just sending the last future to give orders." ”

"My army number!" Deng Fei raised the cherry gun in his hand and kicked the horse in the belly. Seeing this, the man turned around and wanted to run, but he was a step slower, and Deng Fei's war horse had already accelerated, and he came up and shot him in the vest. The man screamed and fell from his horse to the ground.

Deng Fei shouted: "The enemy's plan to divide the enemy, fake military orders!" Tell the army to leave nothing to chance, and kill anyone they see! ”

…… Xiangdu Colonel Qi Huo led the army and the First Army Wang Zhang's department to rush into the city together, and a large number of men and horses advanced densely along the street to the left flank, and they were also ambushed. Some ** cavalry pretended to be the Zhou army taking advantage of the smoke and came up to shout and spread rumors, and some of the soldiers retreated in panic and retreated in large numbers, and met the rear army and caused chaos.

** The elite soldiers were killed, Qi Camel and other departments were separated from the main force, and they were besieged by ambushes from the front and back. Seeing this, Qi Camel was in a hurry, and led the crowd to rush forward, and the people around him saw that he didn't run, and they also fought to the death.

Qi Camel stood up in the army, and more than ten arrows in the company did not die, and ordered: "Each group will fight to the death!" ”

Guo Shao came to the main gate of the east gate, transferred troops to guard the city gate, and the generals shouted: "Those who retreat to the city gate of the front army will be beheaded immediately!" ”

At this time, the city was full of fires, thick smoke billowed into chaos, and shouts of killing and screams came one after another. Guo Shao ignored the military chaos, and constantly mobilized the elite soldiers of the left wing of the Hujie Army to enter the city first, and then let the soldiers and horses of each town follow up. A military general stood on the wall and shouted: "If you can't find the one who goes to the top after entering the city, you can fight on your own, and the generals at all levels will make a decision on the spot, and they will die in Haozhou City!" ”

Some civilians escaped from the fire, but were immediately shot and trampled by the rebels, and the situation was terrible. Thousands of Hujie infantry soldiers continued to enter the city from the east gate. "Click, click, click......" A large number of infantry passed through the city gate like a torrent of black steel, and the sound of neat footsteps, drums and trumpets blended with the chaotic scene ahead.

Guo Shao turned back to Luo Mengzi and said: "Go to Zuo You and ask him to send three military orders one after another, strictly ordering the left wing Qi Tingyi (Qi Camel) and Wang Zhang to open the south gate at all costs, so that Gao Huaide's troops can enter the city!" ”

The entire city of Haozhou groaned and trembled under the fire of war and iron horses!
