19. Gongsun Du retired from the army

The two attacks on the first day were all failures, which was a great blow to the morale of Gongsun Du's army! Gongsun Du had no choice but to withdraw his troops from Mingjin, and then turned around and left without saying hello. Flaton also felt embarrassed, and returned to the camp listlessly.

When they arrived at the camp, they found their henchmen and men to discuss how to attack the city tomorrow. One of his subordinates took out a triangular nail and handed it to Mudun and said, "Young Patriarch, this thing is the culprit who caused our warriors to fall!" ”

Shan Dun looked at it and said angrily: "The Han people are really treacherous, what if they use this thing tomorrow?" ”

One of his subordinates rolled his eyes and said, "The young patriarch can let the slaves go to the road, as long as the nails on the road are removed, then our warriors can drive all the way to the city." ”

"Hmmm! Also note! Hahaha, I'll reward you with a roasted whole lamb. Crash said happily.

In the next day, Shan Dun came to Gongsun Du and applied again to be a pioneer. But then he made a request for 3,000 slaves to make his way. With a wave of his hand, Gongsun Du agreed to his request, and 3,000 slaves were driven to Seoul. Behind them, the iron cavalry that collapsed was waiting for them.

The three thousand slaves thought that they were going to die in front of the battle, but they did not expect that they rushed directly to the vicinity of the city wall and did not have anything to do. It turned out that last night, Gao Ran sent people to clean up the battlefield and take back all the triangular nails, not to mention, and the corpses of many war horses were also collected by him, ready to add food to the soldiers.

Seeing that the slave was not dead, Daxi immediately ordered all his men to attack, and this time he must teach the people in this city a lesson! With the order of the collapse, more than 3,000 Wuhuan knights rushed towards the walls of Seoul on horseback. Seeing that they were almost under the city walls, these Wuhuan cavalry drew their bows and arrows and shot them at the city! Arrows flew into the locusts, and all the locusts were shot into the city. This move is the best running shot of the Wuhuan cavalry.

After a rain of arrows, there was silence in the city. Except for the faint presence of many standing figures, there was no other change. Seeing the scene in front of him, he was puzzled, and then he ordered: "Shoot again!" The Wuhuan cavalry obediently shot another round, but there was still no response.

"Is there no one in the city?" Crash thought about it immediately. But he soon denied it, and then he ordered it again. The Wuhuan cavalry finally shot a third time. At this time, Gongsun Du couldn't wait any longer, so he recalled Li Hong, the deputy general of the Collapse Commander, to lead 5,000 infantry to carry the ladder and start attacking the city.

Just as the infantry was quickly approaching the wall, and just as they were leaning the ladder against the wall and preparing to climb up, suddenly there was a sound of sticks on the wall. Then an overwhelming rain of arrows fell, and less than half of the five thousand infantry fled back, and the rest were either killed or wounded, and all fell under the walls.

Seeing the enemy fleeing, the city erupted in cheers. At this time, Gongsun Du and Dudun fixed his eyes on the city, and it turned out that the city was full of straw men at the beginning. The real soldiers were all squatting on the ground with shields on their heads, don't look at the tricycle shooting, it turned out that not a single person was injured, and 9,000 arrows were given away for nothing!

Gongsun Du saw such a scene, and he roared: "Give it all to me, I will definitely take Seoul today!" And the virtuous nephew, go and suppress all the archers at the head of the city for me!" ”

The crowd did not dare to slack off and rushed up again. Gao Ran saw it clearly, he sighed and said, "This wave seems to be desperate!" "Then he called his own soldiers to go to all parts of the city to give orders, and after a while, he changed them into knives and prepared for hand-to-hand combat.

Sure enough, with the suppression of the Wuhuan cavalry, Gongsun Du's men and horses finally landed on the top of the city. However, it is easy to come up but difficult to go down, Gao Ran's people have already prepared an ambush, and the people who come up are instantly divided by the blade.

As people continued to climb the city, the Wuhuan cavalry didn't dare to let go of arrows anymore! This just follows Gao Ran's wishes, and it shouldn't be the wishes of the little military division.

Back to last night, Gao Ran couldn't sleep, thinking about the tough battle to be fought tomorrow, and he didn't know the bottom in his heart. Suddenly, he remembered the trick that the little military master Han Fei had given him, and then he opened it and looked at it, and he was stunned. Although Gao Ran is not very old, he has also read the art of war, and he also has a lot of experience in defending the city. But he never thought that he could defend the city like this.

So Gao Ran simply didn't sleep, and the convener arranged it at the head of the city overnight. Straw men borrow arrows, raise shields to hide, and divide and surround them. So this time there is today's scene.

At this time, the head of the city has completely become a meat grinder, how many people die when they come up, no matter who you are, as long as you come up, there is only a place the size of a palm to stand on, this land only has space for three or five people, and it is surrounded by fences on all sides, and the people in it have become live targets for others. Although this fence was only made improvised and not strong, it was this unsturdy fence that caused Gongsun Du to lose more than 2,000 people and destroyed him.

Just when Gongsun Du was anxious, a soldier ran over quickly. shouted: "The Lord of Qiqi is not good, Liaodong City is besieged!" ”

Gongsun Du's heart was half cold when he heard it, if Liaodong City was gone, then he would be homeless! Thinking of this, he still cared about attacking Hancheng, so he immediately collected his troops and went straight to Liaodong City.

It is said that the person besieging Liaodong City is none other than Zhang Su, Zhang Su took the land route, and he also brought 10,000 horses and a small family, so he came late. However, after hearing that Gongsun Du went to attack Seoul, he had the idea of robbing Liaodong City.

So he led his bandits to directly surround Liaodong City, and then sent many teams to rob around, and he also gained a lot in the past few days. In addition to robbery in the past few days, he also sent people around to look for mountains that can be used as cottages, although there are many mountains in Liaodong, but there are no water sources on many mountains. Therefore, finding a place to base camp has become his top priority at present.

Just as he was worried, someone came to visit outside the camp. The person who came was called Qin Song, and he was a secret agent of the Shadows. He came to meet Zhang Su to inform him that Gongsun Du had already returned with his troops and asked him to leave quickly. There is also to tell him that the military advisor once said that there is a King Kong Mountain in Liaodong that can be used as a base camp.

Zhang Su was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately sent someone to arrest the locals to lead the way, and then led people straight to King Kong Mountain. Two days after Zhang Wei left, Gongsun Du led 10,000 remnants of the army back to Liaodong City. When I came back, I got a message that made him vomit blood, and it was a group of bandits who had disappeared two days ago after robbing the perimeter!

After days of running around and being angry, Gongsun Du spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then he was unconscious. Everyone was in a hurry, and it was he who helped him to the bed and went to invite Langzhong! After tossing and turning, he finally woke up Gongsun Du, but it was not easy to look at his appearance.

At this point, Gongsun Du's plan to recapture the three cities was a complete failure, and he had to find a way to pay what Mudon promised to the Wuhuan people. Wuhuan came with 5,000 people, and as a result, 2,000 people died under the city of Seoul, and if Gongsun Du could not satisfy them, then they would not mind taking what they deserved when they left.
