Chapter 197: Akagi Attack and Defense

"Kill!"

Wang Ping swung his knife and slashed at a Yunzhou government soldier who had just emerged, and the waist knife in his hand easily slashed the soldier's head. However, as he could kill the soldier, more heads popped up on the city.

Wang Ping smiled bitterly, the enemy came too suddenly, causing Chicheng and Yexian to be defenseless, and they didn't even have the most basic city defense preparations. The stones, gold juice, and nail rackets that were always on hand had been exhausted in the battle two days earlier. What's worse is that Yang Xuan took away the most capable Ding Chen battalion and Cao Qing battalion, and what remained in his hometown was 2,000 people from the Second Army, 300 archers, and 3,000 reserve new troops with more recruits, and he lost 2,000 people in Ye County.

Ye County was breached three days ago. The state army of Yunzhou came too suddenly, Akagi was not prepared at all, and the enemy was too strong, there were 3,000 ironclad troops among the 8,000 people. Not to mention resistance, such a large number of ironclad soldiers, the big and small leaders of Akagi have never even seen it.

The 2,000 garrisons of Yexian County resisted to the death for three days before they were broken, and the 2,000 soldiers and horses were almost wiped out.

After the fall of Ye County, only Wang Ming broke out with three hundred remnants. He originally thought that they were all from Yunzhou no matter what, and those enemies would not take the people of Ye County. But before he could run to Chicheng, Yexian heard a scream that shook the sky, and then there was a sky-high fire.

Slaughter the city! Everyone didn't expect that the Yunzhou Army would actually slaughter the city!

At that time, Wang Ming howled miserably, turned over and fell off the horse. He regretted it very much, he had known this, he would have simply fought to the death with the people of Ye County. His run not only harmed the people of Yexian County, but also ruined his reputation and ruined his future. A county order that abandons the city and flees, no one will be welcome.

Wang Ming came back from Ye County, and fainted after almost telling Dong Zhuang and others about the situation in Ye County. The fatigue of guarding Ye County for three days, coupled with the blow of Ye County's slaughter, made this weak scholar unable to hold on any longer and fainted.

The massacre of the city, the Yunzhou army's methods of exterminating humanity made everyone in Akagi hateful and terrifying, and they all vowed to live and die with Akagi. Everyone knows that if you don't resist, you die. Although the difficulties were great, the morale was not weak at all.

Wang Ping also held such a belief that he would die firmly on the north city gate, and the enemy below could easily attack the city wall after a few days of attack, after consuming the castle defense equipment, and the only thing left was hand-to-hand combat.

The first battalion of Wang Ping's Second Army defended the north gate, and his battalion had more veterans of the original county soldiers, and their combat effectiveness

It is also necessary to be a little stronger, and naturally it also takes on the biggest and heaviest tasks. The north gate is the direction of the enemy's key attack, and it is naturally also the direction of the key defense of the Akagi side.

In these few days of fighting, Wang Ping's 1,000 soldiers lost more than 500 people to be able to block the enemy's attack, and finally had to mobilize reserves to go to the top.

"Reserve battalion, drive them down!" Wang Ping roared loudly, and took the lead in rushing at one of the enemies next to him, and before the person arrived, the long knife whistled down.

The enemy had just climbed the city wall, and before he could draw his long knife, he saw a piece of sword light slashing down, and at that moment the soldier screamed, and his hands loosened, and he fell straight down from the city wall, perfectly dodging the powerful knife, but it is unknown whether he would fall to his death or break his leg and hand.

"Kill them all!" Seeing that the blow missed, Wang Ping immediately shifted the target and shouted at the same time.

Behind him, a large group of Akagi soldiers immediately rushed to encircle and suppress dozens of enemies who had broken through the city wall, and the two groups of people were immediately strangled together.

Now Chicheng is full of new soldiers, fortunately, although every time they break through the city wall, they are all soldiers in the army of Yunzhou Prefecture, but the activity space of the city head is not large, and there will not be too many enemies rushing to the city wall at a time, at most more than 300 people. The enemy at the bottom could only use such refueling tactics again and again, and the Akagi army still had a slight advantage. But even so, those Yunzhou soldiers were not something that Akagi recruits could easily deal with.

"Kill!" A young voice roared and swung out the long knife in his hand, splitting one of the enemies on the opposite side in half.

The owner of the voice is none other than Shen Kuo, the third chief of the first battalion of the Second Army, and this kid has already had several colors on his body, but he is still fighting endlessly. It seems that all the young soldiers and officers in Akagi have inherited Qin Wang's fighting style, and they are completely desperate to fight a battle, regardless of whether the enemy will hurt themselves or not, and strive to kill the enemy faster.

Not to mention, this fighting style is still very effective, and Shen Kuo has already killed many enemies with the momentum of this desperate Saburo.

In less than a pillar of incense, all these dozens of people were wiped out, and Akagi also suffered a considerable price, more than thirty recruits suffered casualties, and these people had to withdraw from the battle. In the past few days, the same scene will be played out more than a dozen times. Even if the casualties of Akagi were a little smaller than those of the Yunzhou army, the Akagi army, which was at an absolute disadvantage in numbers and combat effectiveness, suffered much faster losses than the Yunzhou army.

Huang Minglai came much earlier than Huang Wushuang judged.

Huang Ming is the eldest son of Huang Jinshan, and he will inherit the Huang family in the future

And it is not surprising that it is also to inherit the three states of the Golden Mountain to make it to the throne. As a newly emerging and trendy family, the Huang family also attaches great importance to the cultivation of the next generation of successors. In order to accumulate prestige for Huang Ming, after knowing the agreement between Qin Wang and Huang Ling, the Huang family did not rush to clean up the stupid Huang Fat Man for the time being, and wisely sent all the ironclad private soldiers. One was led by Huang Wushuang to transport property to Xinzhou and buy Zhao Jin. The other was led by Huang Ming, and after arriving in Yunzhou, he requisitioned 5,000 elites from Yunzhou to attack Chicheng, Yexian and Qinjiacun controlled by Qin Wang, and then changed hands to pack up Huang Ling on the return trip.

With 8,000 strong troops, to attack two small county towns and a village, Huang Ming felt that there was no pressure to make a big fuss at the same time. So along the way, he ordered the soldiers to rush at full speed, and it can be said that he killed Chicheng County with a high spirit.

He lived for more than 20 years, and in the eyes of others, he was just a gentleman, flying eagles and fighting dogs, bullying men and women all day long. Everyone respected him, but he also knew that the purpose was only to please his father. He has always wanted to find a chance to prove himself, and now that such a simple task and such a great credit are in front of him, of course he is anxious. He couldn't wait to fly to Chicheng immediately, complete the task as quickly as possible, and then fly back to Yunzhou to accept the admiration of 10,000 people. The thought of this warmed his heart.

In fact, it's not just him, even Huang Jinshan himself feels that it's a big fuss, but Huang Jinshan is also helpless, there are still a few months left before the date of his discussion with the Khitan side, but at this time, Qin Wang, an outlier, was born, and he also holds the most critical two counties, tens of thousands of horses, how can this not make him anxious? Therefore, as soon as he gritted his teeth, he simply sent his most elite forces to make sure that he completely defeated the two places once and for all.

At the end of the day, time waits for no one.

Huang Ming was the first to arrive in Ye County, which was further south than Chicheng, and it was a city that he couldn't bypass. He originally thought that everywhere he went must be devastating, but he didn't know that he met stubborn resistance here. The circumference of the small Yexian town is only a few miles, but there are actually 2,000 defenders, and the combat effectiveness is very strong. They relied on the city walls and did not give an inch. After losing nearly 3,000 Yunzhou soldiers, Ye County was finally conquered. Then he was very angry, and he carried out his father's order very well, and killed the people of this county. Only the sun and moon were killed, the heaven and the earth were lightless, and finally a fire was burned to the ground, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, the Chicheng after Ye County was even more difficult to fight, and he had been fighting for a few days, and he had attacked the city wall many times, but he was pressed down by the Chicheng army again and again, which made him very annoyed.
