Chapter 142: The Battle of the Gate Cave
After Niu Shan made a move, the seventy or so people beside him all acted instantly.
Several soldiers who were responsible for solving the rebels who opened the city gate immediately followed Niu Shan to cut down the rebels who were responsible for opening the city gate to the ground on the spot, without a trace of mud and water.
The soldiers who were responsible for blocking the attack from the direction of the city gate into the door hole immediately swung the cart in their hands sideways in the door hole, forming a cover.
The soldier in charge of signaling rushed out of the door one by one, and shot the signal arrow on his body into the sky, and the signal arrow like two kicks successfully exploded in the sky.
Yuan Chao, who had been waiting outside the city gate for a long time, was immediately overjoyed when he saw and heard the signal from the city gate.
"Do it, they do it, hurry, Ergou, Zhou Qiang, Zhou Dadi, Chu Kuo, you lead people to rush up." Yuan Chao immediately gave the order to attack.
After hearing the order, these soldiers, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately charged quickly in the direction of the city gate like horses on the loose.
Zhao Huzi, who had just walked into the city gate building and was about to make a fuss, heard a restless sound from the city, and heard the sound of the signal exploding, and suddenly felt that something was wrong and rushed out.
"What's going on? What's going on? Zhao Huzi asked by the shoulders of the soldiers who had just run up the city wall to report the news.
"General Zhao, it's no good, Li Bao under the city just now killed the brothers who opened the door, and now they are still guarding the door and controlling the city gate."
"And they also signaled just now, it is estimated that they are about to attract enemy troops to capture the city gate." The soldier who came to report the news was dragged by Zhao Huzi fiercely, Zhao Huzi was also born with divine power, and he was about to lift the soldier who reported the news to lift his legs off the ground.
"Oh, this Li Bao, I treat him as a brother, I didn't expect him to dare to harm me." Zhao Huzi let go of the messenger soldier, and angrily drew his sword, his eyes about to erupt with anger.
The soldier who was thrown down hurriedly sighed, leaned back and said, "General Zhao, please hurry up and decide, what to do." After the soldier finished speaking, he unconsciously took a step away from Zhao Huzi.
After listening to this, Zhao Huzi also suppressed his anger and thought about it.
At this time, the situation was still unclear, and naturally it was not the time to abandon the city gate and escape.
"Pass my order, mobilize the army near the city gate, seize the gate hole, and take back control of the city gate."
"The soldiers of the city are ready to defend the city."
"Then send people to send a message to all the gates of the city to be prepared, and mobilize troops to support us." Zhao Huzi is not a tiger at all, and he is also methodical in handling things.
After hearing Zhao Huzi's order, the soldiers who sent the message also began to spread the news everywhere, and the soldiers who heard Zhao Huzi's order also found some backbone and began to gather to attack the doorway.
Zhao Huzi was also unambiguous, and directly went down the city wall to personally command the attack on the door cave.
Seeing the two or three hundred people who had just gathered next to the door hole, Zhao Huzi also kicked the ass of a timid soldier.
"What about all the plays? Don't rush yet? Waiting for the officers and soldiers to come in and chop you all up? Zhao Huzi roared loudly.
After hearing Zhao Huzi's roar, hundreds of people finally mustered up the courage and launched the first wave of impact towards the door hole.
The cart had been set up in the doorway, and the soldiers were hiding behind the cart and quietly watching the reaction of the rebels in the city, and after waiting for a while, they saw the first wave of rebels rushing in.
"Shoot the arrows." Seeing that the enemy was in effective range, Niu Shan gave the order to release the arrows.
Behind him, more than 70 people all drew their bows and arrows, shooting out a wave of arrows.
Due to the small opening of the city gate, the enemy stood very densely, and the enemy was in a hurry, not to mention that many people did not hold shields, and even some rebels did not wear protective gear, so they rushed forward in a swarm.
When this wave of arrows rained down, more than a dozen people were fatally wounded on the spot, fell to the ground, and were trampled by their companions behind them.
About 20 people were also injured by the rain of arrows.
But this group of people has more or less been in battle, and they still have a lot of blood and bravery, and they still don't stop and continue to rush.
"Forty people in the front row are ready to fight with weapons, and thirty people in the back row are free to throw fire." Seeing such a war situation, Niu Shan immediately issued another military order.
After hearing Niu Shan's order, the forty people in the front row immediately put away their bows and arrows, took out their swords and guns, and prepared to engage in battle.
The thirty people in the back row were still holding their breath and shooting freely.
In a few breaths, the enemy rushed to the side of the cart, and one by one they bravely climbed the cart and prepared to cross the cart.
Niu Shan and the others on the side of the cart kept sending spears and swords to put down the enemies who boarded the cart.
For a time, the two sides attacked and defended each other, forming a short balance of power.
The conductors on both sides watched the passage of time, and their hearts were very anxious.
Yuan Chao's side has no good way, so he can only see that the first wave of support troops can rush to the city gate as soon as possible, while Zhao Huzi's side is constantly sending the gathered troops to the city gate holes, even if they are piled up, they must fill the door holes.
The pressure in the door hole was increasing, and the rebels were able to jump out of the cart and rush in more and more frequently, and Niu Shan gradually felt a little struggling.
At this time, Li Bao also saw that the time had indeed come, so he immediately took a few soldiers beside him, put down his bow and arrows, and threw the fire oil into the crowd in front of him.
"Whoa." The sound of the oil smashing on the person's head and shoulder shattering kept coming.
The clever Li Bao also smashed some fire oil ** on the top of the door hole in front of him, and after the fire oil ** smashed into the wall above the door hole, it shattered like rain and poured the fire oil down.
After throwing a large number of fire**, without the slightest stop, the fire fold lit the torch that had been prepared long ago, and then threw it forward.
Each torch formed a beautiful line in the doorway and was thrown into the crowd of enemies.
The enemy army, which had just received a baptism of fire oil, touched Mars again this time, and one by one they immediately caught up.
In the midst of the fire, the screams resounded throughout the doorway.
The ignited rebel soldiers fell into a state of madness in agony, rushing back and forth, and the already narrow door hole was even more chaotic.
The soldiers who were not affected by the firelight, who still cared about military orders at this time, immediately began to swarm outward.
Zhao Huzi watched a large number of soldiers pouring out, and saw the fire in the door hole, and suddenly his heart was gone, this time Li Bao and they came prepared, naturally they would not easily let him regain control of the city gate.
When Zhao Huzi's heart was about to be gone, the soldiers in the city went down to the city and whispered that more than 100 cavalry of the enemy army had arrived, followed by thousands of infantry, and then an unknown number of troops were preparing to attack.
