Chapter 107: Tian Xiong's Death
"Report to the lord, the officers and soldiers have been tricked, and they rushed over from the main gate." A soldier shouted from above the second wall, telling the news to Deng He under the wall.
"That's it." Deng He and Zhang Xuan had an idea, he waved his hand and said, "Ready." ”
Deng and the five hundred soldiers around him pulled out the long knives in their hands in unison, and protected their shields in front of them one by one, sweating profusely on their foreheads, and some people still felt that their mouths were chapped, and they licked their lips with their tongues from time to time. Deng He's eyes swept over these soldiers, and then saw that many soldiers carried a lot of long ladders nailed to wooden boards, which were three or four zhang long.
He listened to the shouting in his ears, and silently calculated in his heart: "Three, two, one." ”
A series of screams of officers and soldiers were heard.
"Up." Deng He jumped up, and from the back steps, rushed up the second wall, and with him rushed up with his Chinese army guards of 500 people.
Also fighting back was Zhang Yuanhai.
Zhang Yuanhai had been waiting near the gate of the wall, and when he heard the screams, he immediately rushed out from behind the artillery.
But I saw countless soldiers trapped in a huge trap, of course, such a big pit, it is not bad to be called a trap.
This is a trap that has been set for a long time.
Tian Xiong took a cautious step and fell for it.
In fact, it's no wonder that Tian Xiong was not careful.
Tian Xiongzhi didn't think so, because when he counterattacked some time ago, the thief was brave enough to attack, and that battle gave Tian Xiong a considerable shock, he knew that Zhang Xuan was definitely not a master who was waiting to be killed, and if he wanted to fight back, there must be a counterattack channel.
What is the best counterattack channel, naturally this walled gate.
In this way, Tian Xiong thought that the thieves would never cut off their counterattack channels.
When he fell into the trap, Tian Xiongcai thought wrongly. Only by this time, several thick sharp wooden stakes had slammed into him from below, knocking out three large holes in his body, and severe pain burst out of the wounds.
"Ah-----" The screams that were not like human voices erupted from Tian Xiong's mouth.
But after a while, a righteous soldier came down cautiously from the side, cut off Tian Xiong's head with a knife, and then handed it over, but it was passed to Zhang Yuanhai's hands in a moment, Zhang Yuanhai didn't say a word, let the soldier pick up the head with a spear, followed behind him, and shouted: "Your lord is dead." ”
A long wooden plank was instantly erected on the two sections of the long trench, turning the moat into a thoroughfare, and Deng He's more than 1,000 reserves rushed over. Immediately fought with the officers and non-commissioned officers.
To be honest, the ability of the officers and soldiers to fight hand-to-hand combat and the ability to fight melee may not be weaker than Zhang Xuan's troops, but they can't attack for a long time, and the morale of the soldiers is already low, plus the main general is killed, and they suddenly collapse
, but in a moment was driven down from the wall by the army.
Deng He was so unforgiving that he actually rushed down the wall and chased all the way.
Zhang Xuan saw it from a distance, and immediately knew that something was wrong, and said, "Herald Mingjin." ”
Zheng Lian immediately waved the order flag and gave the order.
"Dangdangdang." The sound of gold suddenly spread from the east gate.
Deng He listened, and without saying a word, he retreated.
It's just that they haven't completely withdrawn to the wall, there are hundreds of horses galloping over, these hundreds of horsemen are very good at archery, and in an instant arrows rained down, and dozens of soldiers who fell behind were shot to the ground in an instant.
Fortunately, Deng and the brigade have withdrawn.
"Boom, boom, boom." The sound of artillery bombardment sounded again.
It seems to be used to vent the frustration of losing soldiers.
"Waste," Huang Degong was furious, but when he remembered that Tian Xiong had been saddled by his side for so many years, he gritted his teeth and said: "Even if it is waste, it is my waste, not for thieves to kill." ”
"Someone." Huang Degong said.
Ren Youqian said: "General." ”
"Two more layers of armor with me." Huang Degong said.
Huang Degong has no preparation for battle today, and only one layer of armor is better than practicality, such armor is not enough on the battlefield, when Huang Degong went into battle, he never put on three layers of armor.
"Never." Ren Youqian said: "General, General Tian is also a powerful general, and he was also killed by thieves, and the general must not be taken lightly." ”
Huang Degong actually knows that the battle of attacking the village is not as good as the cavalry battle, if it is a cavalry battle, even if it is a thousand troops and horses, Huang Degong dares him to kill it alone, but at this moment, even if he is not heroic, he can't withstand the power of a cannon.
Huang Degong forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, regained his composure, and said secretly in his heart: "Zhang Xuan is really hard-boned, today's battle has already lost a lot of people and horses, and the Yongwei battalion is the emperor's hard work, and it must not be damaged too much." At this moment, he suddenly thought of a person and said, "Send someone to urge Liu Liangzuo to attack the village, Weng Zhiqi." ”
"The end will be." Weng Zhiqi said.
"You bring my iron whip over." Huang Degong casually untied the iron whip on the saddle and threw it to Weng Zhiqi, Weng Zhiqi hurriedly took it with both hands, even then he felt that his hand sank and almost fell to the ground.
"Those who dare to retreat, from Liu Liangzuo to the lower pawns, are all whipped and killed." Huang Degong said coldly.
"Yes." Weng Zhiqi said. He agreed, said a lot, and hurriedly went to Liu Liangzuo's camp.
"Also." Huang Degong continued: "Send someone to call Liu Zeqing to me. ”
"Yes."
Zhang Xuan saw that Huang Degong was a little relieved, and he was relieved
, secretly said: "Huang Degong's side has subsided, and other aspects are just scabies." ”
I don't know if Huang Degong was because of the morning attack, or because he suffered Cao Zongyu's loss, and transferred the battle from the west gate to the south gate, and happened to meet the Linying camp, Deng He may not be as good as Cao Zongyu, but the Linying camp is not weaker than the Nanyang camp at all.
As soon as the war in the south ended, Zhang Xuan turned his eyes to other directions, and saw that the fighting in other directions was tepid, so he put his mind at ease, looked at the traces of yesterday's fire, and asked Zheng Lian: "How is the wall in the east built?" ”
Zheng Lian said: "There is no return from Xipingying now. ”
Zhang Xuan said: "Send someone to ask." ”
"Yes." Zheng Lian immediately waved the flag, but after a while, he saw a person running from the east, stuffing a piece of paper into the bamboo tube below, and was pulled up by Zheng Lian one by one, and Zheng Lian immediately handed the letter to Zhang Xuan to read.
Zhang Xuan glanced at it and was silent for a while.
No matter how much water is poured on this wood and mud is smeared, the wood will not change the nature of its flammable material.
This wooden village is not easy to keep.
Zhang Xuan had to think about Yuan Shizhong's advice to him, whether to give up Xizhai and withdraw to Yuan Shizhong's Xiayi County, Yuan Shizhong had already moved all the people in Xiayi County, and the space was enough, but Zhang Xuan was used to leading an army alone, and he was impatient to be a subordinate.
Even Yuan Shizhong, who had cooperated closely at the beginning, was the same.
At this moment, Xiayi County is in the middle of the county.
Yuan Shizhong stood on the southwest corner of Xiayi County, looking at it from a distance, what he could see was only a corner of the battlefield, not the whole picture, but Yuan Shizhong's knowledge on the battlefield was enough for him to make up for the rest of what he couldn't see.
"Okay." Yuan Shizhong sighed: "It is worthy of being the third brother." This means, I sigh to myself. ”
There are some good things to think about in terms of strategy, but it is not easy to actually implement them. Laymen see it as a clever strategy, but insiders like Yuan Shizhong see it as the army's orders and prohibitions, after all, the more wonderful the plan, the more it needs to be executed.
If you don't have enough execution ability, any magic tricks are all in the air.
"Big brother, do you want to let the people below rest for a while, they have been standing for a while." Yuan Shimin said.
Yuan Shizhong looked down the city, but saw thousands of soldiers standing on the school field behind the west gate, quietly waiting for orders, but because they had stood for a long time, they no longer had the spirit they had just stood up, but they were a little crooked.
Yuan Shizhong looked at his subordinates, and then at Zhang Xuan's department, he suddenly sighed in his heart, his tone became colder, and said, "Why stand for a while, you can't stand." ”
"No, big brother, isn't there no danger on General Zhang's side now?" Yuan Shimin said.
