Chapter 570: The Defense of Jianshan

Behind the Xiyang Pavilion, Tian Kai camp.

In the big tent, the staff hunched their backs, with a flattering smile on their faces, and said: "News has come back from the front line, the army sent by Tai Shici has been trapped in Jianshan. The ambush soldiers arranged to form a pocket array around Xiyang Pavilion had already rushed over and completed the encirclement. Today's Jizhou Army has completely become a trapped beast. ”

Tian Kai laughed, his face couldn't help but show a smug expression, and said: "If you use a precious chess piece, you naturally have to win." ”

The staff smiled, and then boasted: "This victory, Lord Tian Zheng has also made a great contribution. Both the Lord and the Lord Tian Zheng will be valued by the Lord of the Prefecture. Tian's family is a double master, and it is the only one in Youzhou! ”

Tian Kai's laughter became more and more high-pitched, and his eyes were full of pride.

……

Eagle's Nest, under the mountain to the north.

The generals of the various armies who gathered from the east, west and Zhangcun all came here to meet the stone pillar. The four of them met and agreed on the next attack strategy.

The army will launch a fierce assault from mountain roads on all sides, blooming on all sides.

The order was given, and the dense Youzhou Army soldiers launched the most fierce charge.

Around the entire Jianshan, there was a shout of killing.

The battle began and lasted from noon to sunset, without stopping. When it was time for dinner, the Youzhou army at the foot of the mountain began to eat, and the attacking soldiers continued to attack and could not withdraw for the time being. After the soldiers at the bottom of the mountain finished eating, the soldiers who had attacked Jianshan before began to retreat to rest and eat, and the soldiers who had eaten went up to continue the attack.

The war lasted until night, and torches were lit up on and down the mountain, and the flames were so bright that the surroundings were as bright as day.

Li You commanded on the mountain and felt the heavy pressure.

This battle is not easy.

To hold Jianshan, you have to wait for the arrival of reinforcements, to be honest, Li You has no confidence in his heart.

"Report!"

A scout ran quickly, looked panicked, and said loudly: "General, the enemy on the west side of Jianshan is attacking fiercely, and the trees and boulders prepared before are no longer enough, please ask the general to provide some more support." ”

Li You frowned, waved his hand and said, "There are no more trees and boulders, hold on a little longer, grit your teeth and hold on." ”

The scout left, and after a while, another soldier came.

"General, the enemy on the east side of Jianshan is fearless of death, and the thistles laid down have failed. The soldiers used trees and mined stones to block, and the mineable trees and stones were no longer enough to contain the enemy. ”

"Persistence, persistence, must persevere."

In the face of the enemy's ferocious attack, Li You's expression was serious, and he had no other options.

The situation is unfavorable, so I can only grit my teeth and stand up.

"Report!"

The soldiers on the south side of Jianshan ran back and said, "General, the enemy troops in the south are extremely brave, and it is difficult to resist them with stones and trees. The Marquis asks for your permission to use your bow and arrows. ”

"General, if we don't use our bows and arrows, our defenses will be breached."

The military marquis on the north side of Jianshan ran back in person, with a solemn expression.

Li You got the news, and his heart sank to a low point. The enemy is so strong that stones and trees alone are no longer effective, and it is necessary to use the bows and arrows stored in the army.

"Order the captains and military marquis who are guarding the four directions to use bows and arrows!"

Li You is not an indecisive person, and after a little thought, he immediately gave an order. Whether it was a soldier who came to report the news, or a military prince who came to ask for help, when he learned that he could use a bow and arrow, he was in good spirits and immediately went to convey the order.

Li You stood on the mountain, looked at the moon in the sky, and muttered to himself: "The situation is worrying, when will you be able to arrive?" I can't stand it anymore! ”

A faint worry swirled in Li You's heart.

The soldiers in charge of defending the four sides of the eagle mountain not only used stones and sassalwood, but also began to use bows and arrows.

"Whew! Shout!! ”

On the steep slope to the north of Jianshan, arrows rained down and a sharp whistle rang out.

The overwhelming bows and arrows fell, like a dense rain of arrows, indiscriminately shooting into the soldiers of the Youzhou Army, shooting one after another of the soldiers of the Youzhou Army.

The use of bows and arrows had an immediate effect, temporarily repelling this wave of attacks. However, before the soldiers on the mountain could rest for a while, another wave of soldiers came up from the bottom of the mountain and began to fight again.

The same thing happens in all directions of the rest.

The Youzhou army was completely insane, and the desperate attack gave Li You a great impact.

Li You made an inspection, and his mood was even heavier.

The situation is not optimistic!

Li You knew that tonight could not be blocked by just bows and arrows, stones and trees, and that there would definitely be hand-to-hand combat next. Li You divided the army under his command into five forces, four of which were arranged in the east, south, west, and north directions, and the remaining force was placed on the mountains so that they could support the irresistible places at any time.

In every direction, the soldiers were ready to go.

Li You commanded in the north, and after he saw the other party rushing up against the rain of arrows and stones, and was already infinitely approaching, he knew that he had to make a move, and ordered: "Draw your sword and kill!" ”

At the sound of an order, the soldiers who had already prepared drew their swords out of their sheaths and went down the mountain to kill.

The number of soldiers who rushed down the hill with their swords was not large, only fifty.

This group of soldiers slaughtered downward, causing the opponent to retreat from the road, temporarily restraining the enemy's attack. Immediately, another group of fifty soldiers went down to support the exhausted first group of soldiers.

Li You personally commanded and constantly gave orders to ensure that he could block the opponent's attack.

With Li You, the north is well guarded.

"General, it's not good. To the east, the enemy to the east is fierce and almost unstoppable. ”

When the soldiers came to report, Li You's face changed greatly.

In the four directions of east, south, west and north, if something goes wrong in any direction, there will be a big problem.

Li Youlet the garrison marquis and lieutenant take charge of the defense, and ran to the east.

Coming to the east of the road, Li You had already seen a dense army rushing up. Without any hesitation, Li You mobilized fifty spearmen and asked them to dive down with spears in hand. When the spearmen were rushing neatly and swiftly, Li You dispatched soldiers with swords to follow behind and rush down.

"Poof! Poof! ”

The spear had an innate advantage in length, and when it stabbed down, it plunged into the bodies of countless Youzhou soldiers on the road.

The road was narrow, and after a straight stab, the rest of the other party's soldiers had already rushed up.

The soldier with the spear threw away the spear, drew his saber from his waist and rushed forward. And the soldiers who followed behind also rushed forward quickly. The two armies clashed, but they were evenly matched.

Li You's constant command and mobilization of soldiers to counterattack gradually regained momentum, and the situation gradually stabilized.

Li You breathed a sigh of relief, handed over the command to the captain, and went to the rest of the place.

This night, Li You continued to inspect, checking the east, south, west, and north directions, and constantly dispatched troops to resist. However, a soldier in the army is not an iron machine. The battle lasted from noon during the day to the night, and even if they ate and took turns to defend, the soldiers could not stand it.

Moreover, there was no rest all night, and the physical strength can be imagined.

The Youzhou soldiers under the mountain seemed to be tireless, constantly attacking and charging.

In fact, the army under the mountain amounted to tens of thousands.

The troops brought by Li You cannot be compared with the Youzhou soldiers. The disparity in troop strength has gradually led to a clear gap in the situation. The battle continued into the early morning, and the soldiers on the hill were exhausted. In the eastern sky, a touch of fish belly white rose, and in an instant, the golden brilliance erupted.

The sky was bright, and the war drums under the mountain became more and more high-pitched.

The soldiers of the Youzhou Army who attacked were even more excited, and they became more and more ferocious.

At this time, in the east, south, west, and north directions, the soldiers' defenses began to loosen. What's more, the weapons prepared have been exhausted, there are no bows and arrows, no boulders and no trees, only knives in hand.

The two sides clashed, approaching a white-knuckle battle.

"Report, the mountain road to the east has been breached, and the captain who led the troops withdrew with his soldiers to the north!"

"Report, the mountain road to the west has fallen, and the captain who led the troops led the troops to withdraw to the north."

"Report, the mountain road to the south has fallen, the army has been scattered, and the sergeants and captains in the army have been killed."

One news after another, Li You's face turned pale.

After a short time, soldiers from all walks of life gradually converged, and all gathered at the mountain junction in the north. At this time, Li You was already in a desperate situation and was very dangerous.

Li You knew that he could not withdraw at this time, and once he withdrew, the army would be covered and killed, and the soldiers would collapse.

"Reinforcements are coming, hold on!"

At this moment, Li You only thought of such words to cheer up the soldiers.

It's just that Li Youxin has already scolded the rest of the leading generals in his heart, and has greeted the families of the rest of the generals countless times. The people who led the army with Li You, as well as Qiu Hua and Qin Li. These two people also led a large army each. It's just that Li You is responsible for luring the enemy to attack, while the two are responsible for ambushes.

Li You is in a desperate situation, and there are no reinforcements coming, so his mood can be imagined.

At two o'clock (9 o'clock to 11 o'clock), all the soldiers under Li You's command were surrounded. The defensive lines to the east, west, and south of Jianshan completely collapsed, leaving only the northern mountain road where Li You was located. However, the mountain road to the north is already about to be breached. Li Youlet the soldiers under his command take advantage of the terrain on the mountain to constantly block the attack.

However, as the Youzhou army under the mountain continued to rush up, the pressure on Li You increased day by day.

At this moment, Li You is like a small boat on the sea, facing a violent storm, which may be overturned at any time, and may fall in the storm at any time.

Morale, began to slump.

Countless soldiers, despair began in their hearts.

"Boom! Boom!!! ”

At this moment, to the east of Jianshan, the rumbling sound of war drums and trumpets suddenly sounded. This sound is not like the war drums of the Youzhou army under the mountain, the sound comes from a distance, and from far to near, it gradually becomes clearer.

To the west, south, and north, there were also the sound of war drums and trumpets.

The situation on the battlefield suddenly changed because of the sudden sound of war drums and horns.

"Reinforcements are coming!"

The high-pitched voice sounded among the soldiers of the Jizhou Army. The voice, like a sudden flash of dawn in the darkness before dawn, illuminated the sky and dispelled the darkness.

Countless soldiers of the Jizhou Army instantly became excited.

ps: There is only one more, forgive me.
