Chapter 589: Storming Wu'an
With the shouts of Ko Yi, the cavalry of the 20,000 Yuan army flew in an instant, and the momentum of the army soared like a landslide.
At this moment, Guan Yu killed faster and faster, the red rabbit horse was so fast that there was no shadow, and in the blink of an eye, Guan Yu had already killed the large array of Yuan army's halberd armor soldiers, and was flying towards the 20,000 Yuan army cavalry.
A red rabbit horse, a green dragon glaive knife. Guan Yu only had these two treasures, and with the power of soaring to the sky, he faced the crowd of 20,000 cavalry of the Yuan army. One man rushed against 20,000 horsemen. The two sides are above the momentum, but it is difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser, and it can even be said that Guan Yu's murderous look made the Yuan army cavalry in the front row all tremble!
Guan Yu's phoenix eyes were wide, the silkworm eyebrows were straight, the four hooves of the red rabbit horse were racing wildly, and when he saw Guan Yu again, Guan Yu had already raised the Qinglong Yanyue knife and killed the crowd of Yuan's cavalry.
If Guan Yu had divine power, he rushed straight to the other side. In an instant, the 20,000 cavalry army cracked like a wave, and wherever Guan Yu passed, there would be a continuous sound of falling horses. Guan Yu slashed and killed soldiers in Yuan's array, as if he was cutting wheat and vegetables, and the red rabbit horse under his crotch was as fast as thunder and lightning, which made Guan Yu's speed of harvesting human lives continue to accelerate.
Guan Yu rushed straight into Yuan's array, seeing that he was about to kill the position of Yuan's cavalry, hundreds of guns stabbed at Guan Yu from all directions. Guan Yu shouted violently, and the Qinglong Glaive swept away, nearly a hundred guns were instantly flattened, and nearly a hundred guns were bounced around.
Ko Yi saw a small breach in the Yuan army's cavalry formation, and there was a scream of panic and a fall from the horse in the small gap. Koji Yi hurriedly sent a scout to look, and the scout saw that it was Guan Yu who rushed to kill in the formation, and hurriedly rushed to return to Koji Yi.
"It's Guan Yunchang who killed Lu Fengxian!!"
Koji Yi exhaled silently, and there was a lot of fear in his eyes. At this time, Tian Feng, who heard the scout's report, his eyes lit up, and he almost instantly thought of the answer that he had been thinking about.
"General Koji quickly ordered the soldiers to prepare, this Guan Yunchang must be here to take your head! He wanted to send his brother-in-law Guan Yu in the army to kill you, the general of the army, and make our army chaotic! And those three elite soldiers must be used as a response, just in case! Wen Bufan's move can be done once and for all, if General Koji loses, the 160,000 army will immediately become a leaderless snake! ”
Koji Yi was shocked when he heard this, and was about to urgently order the 10,000 sword and shield hands around him to set up a formation to meet the enemy, when suddenly a shocking change came!
It is said that half an hour ago, when the cannon in the mountain had just started, Guan Yu was rushing down the mountain with a knife. In the northeast mountain range of Wu'an City, 50,000 soldiers of the Wen Army are hiding among the mountains and forests.
These 50,000 soldiers, some of whom are already middle-aged, and some of them are not yet immature, although the formation of the army is not messy, but whenever the general's order falls, the pace of the soldiers' march is uneven, and the reaction is slightly slow.
"Strategist, the cannon has sounded. I'm waiting for the attack! ”
Zhang Xiu rode his horse to Xi Long, who was sitting in one place, boiling tea and watching every move in Wu'an City under the mountain. Xi Long and Zhang Xiu led the army to rush here last night, and after the soldiers rested for three hours, they began to carefully reorganize the army to prepare for war. After Xi Long's rest, he has been sitting here for nearly two hours, and has been watching the scene in the city.
Wu'an City was heavily guarded, with 30,000 soldiers at the front gate and only a few thousand soldiers at the back gate. This arrangement is also reasonable, Wu'an City is surrounded by mountains on the left and right, if the Wen army wants to capture Wu'an, the front gate is the most likely attack position. After all, if you want to attack the back gate, you have to pass through a mountain range, and you can only reach it for five or six hours.
"The signal has been raised, so that General Zhang can lead the army to attack and kill. This Wu'an back door is empty, General Zhang will seize this gap, before the defenders of the front door come, with lightning speed, the Wu'an back door is full of holes, the more fierce the offensive, the better! You inform the generals that there is no need to spare any strength, and our army only needs to attack for half an hour before retreating! ”
"Wow! The last will be ordered! ”
"Good. Xi first congratulated General Zhang in advance on his great achievements! ”
Xi Long poured two teacups, handed one to Zhang Xiu, and took a cup by himself. The two of them replaced the wine with tea, drank first to celebrate, Zhang Xiu finished drinking, and bowed his hand heavily, and left quickly.
A quarter of an hour later, Gao Ran was in the city of Wu'an and ordered his soldiers to rush to the front line to investigate the situation of the battle. In an instant, the drums of the mountain range behind the city roared into the sky, and waves of shouting and killing sounded like the sky and the sea burst out again and again.
At the back gate of Wu'an City, a team of soldiers of the civil army rushed down from the high mountains, and Zhang Xiu led the army to rush to the front, leading 6,000 sword and shield hands to the back gate of Wu'an. After a loud cry of surprise from the thousands of defenders in the city, they hurriedly sent shears to block the attack. Zhang Xiu ordered the sword and shield hands to form a shield wall to resist the arrow tide, because there were not many defenders at the back door, the attack of the arrow tide was not strong, and the huge shield walls composed of six thousand sword and shield hands were strong and standing, blocking the arrow rain.
After the defenders of the back gate shot three rounds of arrows, there were 20,000 soldiers of the Wen army who rushed to arrive, and a pile of giant trees was dragged by dozens of soldiers, and as soon as the third round of arrows passed, Zhang Xiu raised his gun and shouted, and suddenly countless giant trees flew into the city walls around Wu'an and the city gates.
Thundered!!!
Sawdust and rubble flew non-stop, and the entire Wu'an City seemed to be shaken by the crash. As the number of soldiers in the civilian army increased, the thousands of defenders were powerless to stop its fierce offensive.
"Don't stop!! Attack me hard!! As long as this Wu'an city is breached, the 200,000 Yuan army will be like a lost dog, and it will definitely be defeated!! ”
Zhang Xiu shouted loudly, and the guards in the city saw that Zhang Xiu seemed to have made up his mind to break through Wu'an in one fell swoop, and his face was so frightened that he hurriedly sent someone to report to Gao Lan.
Because Zhang Xiu had already ordered, these 50,000 soldiers of the Wen Army almost tried their best, sparing no effort to drag the wood
G hit. At this point, Wu'an City was knocked violently, and if such a fierce offensive was maintained for another three hours, Wu'an City would inevitably be broken!
At this time, in Wu'an City, Gao Ran looked anxious, and rode his horse on the street without stopping.
"Get out of here, get out of the way for General Ben quickly!!!"
Gao Ran roared all the way, and anyone who stood in the way was dispersed by the guns of his attendants. Gao Lan was walking in the middle of the line, and suddenly saw a soldier rushing in the direction of the back door, rushing in a hurry.
When the soldier saw Gao Yan's figure, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted and hurried to report in a pant voice.
"It's not good to be big!! General Gao!! Nearly 50,000 soldiers of the Wen army suddenly appeared at the back door for some reason, and the 50,000 Wen soldiers were launching a fierce attack at the back door, as if they would not stop if they did not break Wu'an! ”
"What!! Fast!! Go and summon the 30,000 soldiers at the front door!! There are also people who are sent to the front line quickly, and the horn of the troops is sounded, so that the army on the front line can rush back to Wu'an for rescue! ”
Gao Ran was suddenly shocked by this information, and the entire 50,000 troops were storming the back gate of Wu'an, and the back gate of Wu'an was guarded by less than 3,000 soldiers. Moreover, even if all the defenders of the front army were to be transferred to the back door, it would take an hour. At that time, I am afraid that the back gate of Wu'an has been attacked to pieces, even if Gao Ran gathers all the troops at the back gate, it will be difficult to resist the onslaught of 50,000 Wen troops for a while, unless a large number of soldiers rush back, it is possible to turn the tide.
"But General Gao, General Koji is leading the army to fight on the front line, and this sudden withdrawal of troops is just afraid of more accidents!"
"Foolishness! I had already said that this was Wen Bufan's plan, but then Lu Yi and Tian Feng insisted on not listening, Wen Bufan used nearly 50,000 troops to sneak attack Wu'an, and how dare he send troops to fight with my 160,000 army, at this time he must be defending the mountain! The two armies are not fighting head-on, so even if the troops are collected at this time, it will be too late to send troops to cover up!
What's more, the lord had an order before, and Wu'an City could not afford to lose. Otherwise, no matter how big or small, the generals will be killed! ”
Gao Ran roared violently, and the bull's eyes widened, so frightened that the soldier hurriedly shut up and didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly wanted to report according to the order.
"Slow! Then Pifu and Tian Yuanhao are proud, and it is very likely that they will not return after obeying the order. You sent me an order to send a group of light cavalry to report to the front-line battlefield under the generals of the various departments. Just say that Wu'an will be lost, and I don't want to be questioned by the lord in the future, if I lose my head, I will return to the rescue as soon as possible! ”
Gao Ran suddenly called out to the soldier, and he gave an order in a fierce manner. Seeing that Gao Ran was so anxious, the soldier hurriedly remembered it in his heart for fear of making a mistake and losing his life. After Gao Ran finished his order, he shook his hand and ordered him to arrange quickly.
With the fall of Gao Lan's order, soon the entire Wu'an City was in turmoil, and the 30,000 soldiers at the front gate frantically rushed to the back door, and a team of fast horsemen rushed out of the city gate and rushed to the front line.
At the back gate of Wu'an City, seeing more and more soldiers rushing to come, the tide of resistance and attack from the city is becoming more and more violent, most of the 50,000 soldiers are veterans and recruits, the veterans attacked for a short time, and soon their strength was insufficient, and the recruits had no experience, so it was inevitable to panic and make mistakes. and caused some unnecessary casualties.
Zhang Xiu's tiger eyes narrowed stiffly, as every minute and second passed, the soldiers of the Wen army continued to suffer casualties, and Zhang Xiu counted the time almost every moment in his heart.
Another wave of hurried footsteps sounded, and thousands of Yuan soldiers arrived, and at this time there were nearly 20,000 Yuan soldiers in the back gate of Wu'an.
The rain of arrows on the city kept falling, boulders flew down, and rolling logs suddenly fell. Nearly hundreds of soldiers of the civil army died under the resistance of the defenders of the city, and the corpses under the city of Wu'an were densely scattered, and the casualties of the civilian army were nearly 6,000 people!
"It's here!"
Zhang Xiu exhaled, his heart was full of joy, and he shouted urgently.
"The sword and shield hand formation remains the same, and the shield is blocked! The rest of the soldiers immediately withdrew!! ”
Under the fierce attack of 50,000 soldiers of the Wen Army for nearly half an hour, many parts of Wu'an City have been exposed, and the huge city gate is even more swayed by red. Seeing that Wu'an City had great hope of being breached, Zhang Xiu suddenly ordered the troops to retreat at this time.
Suddenly, the 20,000 defenders of the city were all amazed, and all of them looked incredulous.
These 50,000 Wen troops came from the mountains with great effort, and suffered nearly 6,000 casualties.
