Chapter 174: The Current Situation in Hanyang
After looking at his siege soldiers, he shouted: "Beat the drums and attack the city!" ”
"No! The general has an order to beat the drums. A herald shouted.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Yan Liuzi hid at the end of the two thousand soldiers and horses, and as soon as he heard the sound of war drums, he immediately shouted: "Siege!" ”
After receiving Yan Liuzi's order, the two partial generals sighed in their hearts, but they had no way to shout: "Attack the city, fill the moat first." Cover with a sword and shield hand! ”
These two thousand soldiers and horses, after receiving the order of the main general, launched a charge, hundreds of sword and shield men rushed to the forefront of the team, and rushed to the edge of the moat in a moment, at this time there were naturally soldiers responsible for filling the river, these people were carrying sandbags and preparing to fill the river.
After Xu Huang in the city saw the change in the enemy, he immediately shouted: "All the archers prepare, don't let the enemy easily fill the moat, release the arrows!" ”
The soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion are all elite soldiers, they are often trained and experienced in a hundred battles, Fu Lin attaches great importance to the cooperation of all arms, this archer is naturally not a problem, Fu Lin's battalions are now excellent in the selection of archers, training and equipment, not comparable to Fu Lin's soldiers and horses in the past.
Brush Brush Brush Brush!
When the archers were given the order, they drew their bows and released their arrows. Dense arrows rain down on the heads of the enemy.
"Archers, keep attacking and don't give the enemy a chance to breathe." Xu Huang then ordered.
Ahhh
After a few rounds of sword rain, on the edge of the moat, hundreds of corpses of the enemy lay down. And the number of enemy casualties is increasing all the time.
"Don't panic, the sword and shield hands form a shield array, and if someone dies, others will make up for it immediately." Yan Jing's two generals ordered.
Despite this, the soldiers and horses besieging the city could not avoid casualties, but Yan Jing's two prejudiced orders also played a certain role, and in this way, after the two thousand soldiers and horses dropped more than 500 corpses, the moat was filled out with a road that could be marched.
"Keep beating the drums!" Yan Jing shouted.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The siege soldiers and horses heard the sound of the war drums of the attack, and continued to attack the city wall of Longxian, Xu Huang saw clearly on the city wall, and saw that the enemy was the same as the old three, so he had the bottom in his heart, but Xu Huang did not relax the slightest bit about what he should do.
"The archers keep firing their arrows! Rolling Wood Stone Ready! Smash! Xu Huang saw that the enemy had set up a ladder, and some of the enemy troops had already climbed to the center of the ladder, so he ordered.
In this way, a tragic offensive and defensive battle began, and despite the enemy's desperate attack, it still could not attack the city wall of Longxian.
Although Xu Huang has made all the preparations, he can't avoid the casualties of his brothers, this is war, as long as there is war, there will be casualties.
This siege battle lasted for half a day, and in the end both sides were already red-eyed, and from time to time someone would fall and rest forever. The final winner of this short confrontation still belongs to Xu Huang, it can also be said that the winner belongs to Fu Lin, the final casualty ratio of the two sides is one to five, Xu Huang paid the price of more than 300 casualties, only to repel the enemy Yan Liuzi almost the whole army is lonely, after hearing Yan Jing's sound of gold, Yan Liuzi only led the remaining four or five hundred people to retreat, Xu Huang rescued the wounded here, strengthened the city wall and carried all kinds of city defense equipment, we don't need to go into details.
And at Yan Jing under the city, he was already so angry that he couldn't speak, and he was panting there all the time. In the end, under the persuasion of his subordinates, he led his soldiers and horses to retreat ten miles to the village, so that his soldiers and horses could reorganize the army, so that these tired soldiers could recharge and fight again. Just as the siege of Longxian was in full swing, a conspiracy was brewing in Hanyang City.
Hanyang City is now Fu Lin's hometown, all of Fu Lin's belongings are in Hanyang, Fu Lin's family and even the families of all Fu Lin's subordinates are in Hanyang, if Hanyang City is lost or something happens, even if Fu Lin will not perish, then Fu Lin will pay a painful price.
On this day, Hanyang City is the same as usual, everything is in order, Fu Lin has been leading the army for a few days, because Hanyang City has Cheng Yu to preside over the overall situation, and there are Xi Zhicai, Zhang Ren and Du Wan Some of Fu Lin's loyal subordinates to assist Cheng Yu, Hanyang City is not a change, and all the military affairs in Hanyang now, when Fu Lin left, were handed over to Liao Hua, Liao Hua will naturally conscientiously guard Hanyang City, and maintain the law and order of Hanyang, because the current Hanyang City, there are only soldiers and horses of the first battalion of Liaohua's Suzaku Battalion to defend the city.
It can be said that Hanyang City is unprecedentedly empty, it is not better than Xi County, because Hanyang City is the seat of a county, Hanyang City is tall, although it is not as good as Luoyang Chang'an, but under the governance of Fu Lin, Hanyang City is also one of the largest cities in Liangzhou, it can be said that two thousand men and horses defend Hanyang, it is like spilling a bowl of water into the desert, and there is no one to show at all. Now there are less than 300 soldiers and horses defending the four gates of Hanyang City, and in the perspective of the tall Hanyang City, it is almost the same as the empty city.
Liao Hua originally had only 2,000 men, and he had to be responsible for the security of Hanyang and guard Hanyang City, and he also had to let the brothers rest in shifts, otherwise everyone would be exhausted, and who else would defend the city? Therefore, after Liao Hua's careful thinking, one city wall of Hanyang City, including the city gate here, Liao Hua can only place a maximum of three hundred people. And these three hundred men had to defend the city walls, and during the day they had to patrol the city gates and check the passers-by.
At this time, Liao Hua was most afraid of what would happen to Hanyang, in this case, even if he Liao Hua had three heads and six arms, he would not be busy, Liao Hua was not afraid of death, but Liao Hua was afraid of the trust of the lord Fu Lin.
Among the guards of Hanyang City and County, everyone is very busy, Cheng Yu is in charge of all military and political affairs, it can be said that he is the busiest after Fu Lin goes on the expedition. And Zhang Ren is responsible for all the treasury money and prison affairs, Zhang Ren is naturally not easy, he is also responsible for the food and grass of Fu Lin's army, Du Wan naturally will not sleep much, he is the post supervisor since the incident of returning to the homeless people, he is more concerned, Du Wan also knows that at this time, it is the most likely to appear official corruption, and even the problem of collaborating with the enemy, everyone is busy with their own affairs.
And every time Zhou Cang led Zhao Yu on an expedition, he was naturally envious, but often at this time, he Zhou Cang was also the most stressed. Since Fu Lin's expedition, Zhou Cang has lived in the front yard of Fu Lin's mansion, and has temporarily set up military camps near Fu Lin's mansion, which are used by the guard battalion.
Zhou Cang conscientiously guarded Fu Lin's mansion, and since Fu Lin established Feng Wei, Fu Lin's backyard female residence was handed over to Feng Wei to guard. Zhou Cang's guard range includes the backyard, but Zhou Cang's personal guard battalion will not enter the backyard.
Just when everything was going on in a tense and orderly manner, Hanyang West Gate, at this time, Liao Hua happened to inspect the West Gate, and Liao Hua would inspect the four gates of Hanyang every day, as well as important places in Hanyang City.
"Report! Checkmate! According to the Tanmalay newspaper, there is a group of bandits twenty miles outside the west gate who are marching towards our Hanyang City, and they don't know what to do, but the scout reported that they look like they are going to attack Hanyang City, please decide? A Liao Hua's pro-guard reported.
"What, how many of them are there?" Liao Hua asked.
