Chapter 92: Counterattack (1)
The noise gradually became louder, Xia Xue hurriedly looked sideways, and saw Zhao Ning, Wu Lei and others coming together, everyone was like a sponge that had just been soaked out of the sea of blood, and there was a pungent smell of blood all over their bodies.
As soon as Zhao Ning said, Xia Xue knew that not only the West Gate was dangerous, but on the other side of the city wall, Zuo Tiancheng, a general under Xin Wenli, personally led people to attack. Zuo Tiancheng's face is like chicken blood, the form is burly, and he is invincible with a golden-backed mountain knife, and is known as the "golden knife general". This fierce general held back enough strength to break the city, and the offensive was also extremely fierce, and in the end, it was Zhao Ning who rushed up with his personal guards to block it, and then killed Zuo Tiancheng back.
Thinking that just now, the fate of Pingnan Prefecture City was hanging by a thread, and now a few people who belonged to the rest of their lives after the catastrophe faced each other, and they couldn't help but secretly say that they were lucky.
Xin Wenli came up with such a way of playing, which really caught them off guard. However, to be honest, even if you are well prepared, under such a deadly attack, I am afraid that it is a little dangerous, after all, the enemy is outnumbered.
Fortunately, Xin Wenli was temporarily killed.
"Hurry up and rest, this king will go around the city and take another look." Xia Xue strengthened her spirit and patted Zhao Ning's shoulder, standing side by side at this time, they were brothers who could be entrusted to their backs. For the old subordinate of Changxi Village in front of him, Xia Xue has enough trust. Zhao Ning was appointed by Xia Xue as the deputy commander of the Pingnan Prefecture Blockade Battle, and she was very relieved of this loyal, wise and brave old subordinate.
Zhao Ning habitually blinked his small eyes, rubbed his big nose, and nodded deeply, Xia Xue didn't say anything more.
Pine needles and food have been boiled and food has been brought to the city, and most of the soldiers in this era suffered from night blindness, and pine needle water was a good way to treat night blindness without spending much money.
It is also thanks to the blessing of night blindness, and the Sui army is afraid that it will not be tossed again tonight.
Xia Xue, Zhao Ning and other generals also hurried to eat and rest, no matter how tired and busy they were, their energy must still be replenished.
After eating, looking at the pots of hot food, looking at the exhausted and bloody warriors, Xia Xue and Zhao Ning glanced at each other and nodded slightly.
Xia Xue and Zhao Ning walked side by side to a corner, their voices low.
"No one is tired of today's fierce battle. His own soldiers were tired, and it was expected that the enemy's soldiers must be exhausted as well. At this time, if he can fight out of the city, he will definitely be able to catch Xin Wenli off guard. ”
Ouyang Qian saw the queen and Zhao Ning discussing confidential matters, so she and Ouyang Yong, Pan Jiang and others stood up one after another and protected the two of them.
The night sky is like ink, revealing a little clear light. The stars that were once in the sky could not be found at this time. Only the flames burning inside and outside the city of Pingnan Prefecture are still reminding that under the dark night, it is a tragic battlefield that has swallowed countless lives.
Xia Xue stood on the south gate of Pingnan Prefecture, and there were already more than a thousand angel soldiers waiting under the city gate, with swords and guns, and everyone was silent.
"Ready?" Zhao Ning looked at Xia Xue intently.
"Alright." Xia Xue's voice showed relaxation.
Zhao Ning nodded: "Your Majesty is careful. Now that you're ready, you're ready to go, and the last general is ready to meet you in the city. ”
Xia Xue turned around and walked down the south gate. In fact, Xia Xue didn't have a bottom in her heart about this night attack, after all, she was facing Xin Wenli, a famous general of the Sui Army. However, if you don't sneak attack tonight, it is estimated that there will be no chance in the future, and tomorrow Xinwenli will attack like today, and if you order such troops, it is estimated that Pingnan Prefecture is in danger.
This night attack used a hundred black-clothed cavalry as blades, and the main elite of the 1,000 Angel Army as the backbone, and the combat effectiveness was still very strong.
In the night, a cavalry that was also dead almost melted into the darkness. Dugu Jun is Li Jing heard the report that Jianzhou assassin Shi Xin Wenli personally led more than 15,000 people to attack Pingnan Prefecture, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. I heard that Xin Wenli only brought more than 10,000 horses, but now it has increased by more than 5,000 people. And the queen only has 4,000 men to defend Pingnan Prefecture, and the disparity between the numbers is too great. For the sake of safety, Li Jing asked Dugu Jun to lead four hundred elite black-clothed guard cavalry to reinforce Xia Xue, the angel army originally lacked war horses, and the cavalry was very few, this time Li Jing could be said to have pressed all the cavalry of the angel army, after all, the military situation was urgent, the queen was in danger, and now she couldn't take care of anything else.
Dugu Jun sat on horseback, his posture was straight, his sword eyebrows were sharp, and his eyes were full of anxiety.
Dugu Jun looked in the direction of Pingnan Prefecture City in the distance and frowned.
"Hurry forward and rush to Pingnan City!"
"Obey!" A group of black-clothed guards replied with a bang.
……
The night was dark, and only the torches in the camp still illuminated the square inch of land.
Xin Wenli stood outside the tent without the slightest expression on his face. And his personal guards had already been ordered, and they all stood far away, and no one dared to come forward to disturb them.
For Xin Wenli, the siege battle at dusk caused his elite sons and daughters to suffer heavy casualties, and his heart was bleeding.
It's going to be too difficult to launch another attack as ferocious as it was at dusk today.
I didn't expect the rabble gathered by these untouchables, under the leadership of a little girl, to have such a strong fighting power. Xin Wenli sighed softly, and a general with a face like chicken blood, a burly form, a fishtail black gold helmet, and a fish-scale black gold armor walked over majestically: "General Qiyu, everything has been arranged. ”
Xin Wenli looked at the past casually, it was Zuo Tiancheng, a fierce general under his command, known as the "Golden Sword General".
Xin Wenli looked ahead, and there were sparks on the city of Pingnanzhou in the dark. The night is already deeper, little girl, you have the ability to let the horse come, my new Wenli is here to wait for your arrival.
Xin Wenli is not a famous general of the Sui army, he has expected that the angel army will come to attack his camp tonight, and he has made sufficient preparations, waiting for the rabbit, and is ready to wipe out all the angel troops who came to raid in one fell swoop.
Just when Xin Wenli was full of thoughts, whistling arrows fell from the sky, and immediately the earth-shaking killing sound surged from the surrounding fields like a tide, and wave after wave slapped against the wall. Xin Wenli subconsciously gritted his teeth: "What direction?!" ”
"Qianzhai, the angel barbarian is fighting Qianzhai!" "Golden Sword General" Zuo Tiancheng's face showed joy, his own assassin Lord Shi was really like a god, and he switched the positions of the Jianzhou County Township Army and the Jianzhou Mansion Army who had been tired for a long time in advance.
Even if the angel defenders of Pingnan Prefecture poured out, it would be enough to drink a pot.
"Haha, as I expected!" Xin Wenli stroked his beard and laughed, "Order, the elite government army will attack, so that this gang of thieves will not come back!" ”
The elite government army is not an elite, it reacts quickly, and the arrows that are denser than the enemy army that sneak up have already whistled out after a moment. Countless torches were raised at the same time, lighting up the sky.
The angel soldiers who were about to rush to the wall were hit by this sudden arrow, and many people screamed and fell down at the moment, but the soldiers behind reacted quickly, and raised their shields one after another, and these shields were not round shields carried by light soldiers, but large shields used for real battlefield killing.
The shield fell to the ground with a bang, and spears protruded from the gaps in the shield.
The angel army, which was originally attacking the camp, turned to defense in a matter of moments. At this time, the gate of the camp was also opened, and the two Sui cavalry thousand-man teams rolled up countless smoke and dust, rushing up from the left and right sides, and more foot soldiers followed, head-on to attack the angel army array.
