Volume 3 Discussing Dong Chaosan World Chapter 57 Breaking Jinyang and Surrounding Yang Feng
Xu Shu's tactics were also used to concoct Wolf Meng, and the elite armor of the Northern Regions had crushed Bai Bo's soldiers. In the cold winter, Xu Shu did not spread out the battlefield, but raised more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, with the soldiers and horses of the Northern Regions as the vanguard, and attacked the city gate. As for the city tower, Xu Shu also arranged a lot of foot soldiers to try to force the city tower. As for the city tower outside the city gate, Xu Shu ordered people to make a few simple stone throwing carts, and kept throwing buckets of hot water towards the city tower.
Deputy General Xu Shu, who was in charge of attacking Wolf Meng, just followed Xu Shu's instructions before leaving, throwing all cold water without the slightest flexibility. But since the strategy was come up by Xu Shu himself, he will definitely try to optimize it. Xu Shu was also inadvertently touched by the cold water after being scalded by boiling water, which made Xu Shu, who had been practicing "Five Fowl Opera" more and more robust all year round, also crying in pain and crying for his mother.
Therefore, after Xu Shu verified it many times, it was found that if it was in a low temperature state after being scalded by boiling water, the burned part was easy to die. Moreover, in the cold winter, the sudden cold and heat are not something that ordinary people can bear. However, the bucket thrown by the attack on Jinyang, Xu Shu did not think about how many Bai Bo soldiers could be injured, as long as he could suppress the soldiers and not go to the city wall.
There are only two generals in Jinyang City and Wolf Mengcheng, Yang Feng and Xu Huang. However, Yang Feng and Xu Huang were in Langmeng at this time, resulting in no one in Jinyang City being able to command the Baibo army in a unified manner, so they climbed the city wall indiscriminately and tried their best to keep Xu Shu's soldiers and horses outside the city wall. However, in the face of the elite division of the Northern Regions who came prepared, how to resist?
In the government office in Jinyang City, the Bai Bo general who was responsible for defending Jinyang had his whole face wrinkled. Although Jinyang City was extremely panicked due to the surprise attack at night, it was also due to the darkness that the Northern Regions Army was unable to capture the city gate. A night of fierce fighting exhausted the generals defending the city. The guard general was anxiously waiting for the scout who went to Wolf Meng for help, but the news of waiting for the return made the Jinyang guard feel like ashes.
"General, before we arrived at Wolf Meng, we ran across..."
Seeing that the scouts under his command did not dare to speak out, the general defending the city said sharply: "What did you encounter?" ”
"I ran into a scout coming from Wolf Meng, saying... It is said that Wolf Meng was broken by the Northern Regions Army, and General Yang Feng and General Xu Huang are organizing street battles to ask Jinyang for help! The soldier was yelled at by his own general, and he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and said with a little cry and trembling.
"What?!" The general defending the city of Jinyang screamed, his face changed drastically, his legs were weak, and he fell backwards, and his mouth kept muttering: "How is it possible?" How can it be? ”
Suddenly, the Tang Dynasty general seemed to remember something, got up quickly, grabbed the scout, and asked anxiously, "Can you verify the identity of the other party?" ”
"General, it has been confirmed that this person happens to be my fellow countryman!" Seeing his own general like this, the scout replied a little unbearably.
Rumble! The head of the defending general roared in disbelief. He stared blankly at the rooftop, dazed.
"General, the city gate is in danger, please send reinforcements quickly!" Before the generals defending the city came to their senses, bad news followed. After the shock, the general defending the city stood up, slowly stood up, and said with a face full of unbearable: "Gather the troops and horses, and immediately retreat from the West City Gate!" ”
"General!"
Seeing that his lieutenant general was going to persuade him, the general defending the city turned his head and glared at him fiercely: "Retreat immediately!" Seeing this, the adjutant general had no choice but to retreat. At this time, the remnants of thousands of Baibo soldiers and horses at the city gate did not know that they had been abandoned by General Zijia, and they were still struggling to resist Xu Shu, and the city gate, which had been attacked all night, was in danger, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time.
Although the generals on duty in Jinyang had ordered a retreat, the city of Jinyang was extremely quiet. Whether it was the people who were coerced by the white waves, or the original residents of Jinyang, they were all confined doors, and it seemed that the war at the city gate had nothing to do with them. Who likes to live in the shadow of war all day long? Who governs Jinyang City? As long as they can live in peace!
The fierce battle lasted until noon the next day, and the fierceness and fearlessness of the Northern Regions Army made the soldiers of the city gate, who had never received reinforcements, afraid. Looking at the crumbling city gate, in order to survive, they had to take the initiative to surrender to the Northern Regions Army, hoping that the leader of the Northern Regions Army would be merciful and could leave their lives. As the guards of the city took the initiative to slowly open the city gate, Xu Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If Jinyang could not be captured before nightfall, Xu Shu would have to give up. No matter how blocked by the freezing weather, as long as the Bai Bo army has the heart to help, it will definitely be able to rush to Jinyang before nightfall. Moreover, no matter how brave the soldiers of the Northern Regions are, they are not gods, and they need to rest, and such a fierce battle is almost the limit. After the city gate was opened, Xu Shu led most of the troops to the government to prepare for the white wave army in Jinyang City.
However, the Bai Bo army, which had already abandoned the city and fled, made Xu Shu pounce and made Xu Shu smile bitterly.
In this way, when the people couldn't hear the shouts and killings in Jinyang City, only the brave people opened the door to find out. When it was discovered that the ownership of Jinyang City had been changed, the people in Jinyang City were not too surprised, and they were still the same as in the past, what should they do. However, Xu Shu, who had just captured Jinyang, would definitely close the surrounding city gates and clear the city.
After continuous high-intensity combat, Xu Shu didn't dare to move more. After arranging the city guard, let the soldiers rest in turn. As for the impact of the successive wars on the soldiers after resting, it may still be a headache for the other princes, but for the soldiers of the Northern Regions, they can only laugh lightly. Except for the different annual family visits for non-commissioned officers of all classes, the rest of the time is either in practice or on the way to practice. If there is a natural or man-made disaster that is too serious in the territory, you have to rush to the front line of the disaster to save the people, so why think about anything else.
Jinyang was captured, but the street fighting in Wolf Meng County was becoming more and more fierce at this time. Although the armor of the Baibo Army was not as good as that of the Northern Regions Army, and the individual bravery of the soldiers was not as good as that of the Northern Regions Army, Yang Feng and Xu Huang, the leaders of Baibo in Wolf Meng City, gave the generals of the Northern Regions Army who attacked Wolf Meng a headache. In particular, Xu Huang suggested that Yang Feng should disperse his soldiers and fight separately, with five or ten people as a team, and launch a fierce guerrilla war with the Northern Regions Army in Langmeng County.
"Huhuhuhu..."Yang Feng gasped, came to the temporary hiding place, and said to Xu Huang with some excitement: "Gongming's talent is really good, in such a situation, we actually forced the Northern Regions Army back to the outer city again. ”
When Xu Huang heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "General, don't be too happy, the scout who went to Jinyang for help has been gone for a day and a night, why haven't you rushed back yet?" ”
Yang Feng, who was too excited to kill, almost forgot about it, and after Xu Huang mentioned it, Yang Feng remembered the situation of himself and the others again. Except for occasionally forcing the Northern Regions Army back to the outer city under Xu Huang's strategy, Yang Feng and others were fighting at this time, but they couldn't beat it; Run, can't escape.
The two looked at each other, and their eyes revealed mutual comfort, as if they had guessed Jinyang's situation at this time.
"General, General, the scout is finally back!"
When Yang Feng and Xu Huang heard this, their expressions were shocked, and they hurriedly rushed out of the house.
"General!" The scout came to Xu Huang and Yang Feng and knelt down on one knee, his face was unnatural, and it seemed that it was extremely difficult to speak.
"How, exactly? Where's the reinforcements? Yang Feng said in a low voice, suppressing anger.
"General... Jinyang... Jinyang has been broken! ”
When Xu Huang and Yang Feng heard this, their eyes widened, and they were both frightened and secretly asked themselves: How is it possible? How can it be? There is a large county Yuci in the east of Jinyang, which is guarded by Li Le, the general of Baibo, and the mountains and forests in the west, it is impossible to enter the boundary of Jinyang, how did Jinyang break?
"Who said it?" Yang Feng's voice trembled, and it seemed that he could not accept the reality.
"Northern Regions, Xu Shu!"
"Impossible!" Yang Feng hammered the wall in the lower courtyard fiercely, and said fiercely: "Could it be that Xu Shu has the skill of escaping the heavens and the earth?" ”
"General, there is news from the scouts that Xu Shu of the Northern Regions marched to the cave on the fifth day. Two days later, accompanied by Yang Feng, the captain of Montenegro, appeared south of Yuci, and Xu Shu disguised himself as Yang Feng's personal guard. Yang Feng pretended to send people to deceive Yuci, and when he entered the city, General Li Le was attacked by Xu Shu and died! Subsequently, Xu Shu sent troops overnight to attack Jinyang, and the generals of the Jinyang defenders abandoned the city and fled! ”
"Abandon the city and flee!?" Yang Feng was furious, his teeth were gritted and he said, "If Ben will be able to escape, he will definitely divide this person's body!" ”
"There is also Zhang Yan of the Black Mountain Army, wait for the general!" Yang Feng smashed his fist on the wall of the small courtyard again, shaking down a large area of stone chips and accumulated snowflakes on the wall.
Xu Huang on the side heard this, but said with a wry smile: "General, let's surrender." ”
"Huh?!" Yang Feng, who was already angry, was instantly furious when he heard this, and pointed at Xu Huang and said: "Okay, you Xu Huang, I will treat you well on weekdays, but at this time, I am rebellious?" ”
Xu Huang shook his head indifferently and said, "Does the general still think that we can escape from the encirclement of the Northern Regions Army?" ”
"Then you can't surrender, we are Baibo warriors, the uprising is for the people, don't surrender to the court lackeys!"
"This is a dead end!" Xu Huang was also slightly angry, and said in a deep voice: "Besides, no matter whether we can break through or not, even if we break through from Wolf Meng, where does the general think we can go?" Now that Yuci and Jinyang are occupied by the Northern Regions Army, the connection between Baibo and Montenegro has been severed. Shall we go east to Montenegro? Or go west, wait in the mountains and forests to freeze to death? ”
Xu Huang said nothing, which made Yang Feng stunned for a long time. Finally, he lowered his head, sighed deeply, and then laughed bitterly. Seeing Yang Feng like this, Xu Huang also shook his head with a wry smile, and sat down casually against the door frame, waiting for the Northern Regions Army who would come looking for a sound.
Worried that his deputy general would not be able to take down Wolf Meng, he also sent two thousand elites to prepare to go to Wolf Meng to assist his lieutenant general, and then concentrated on dealing with Jinyang political affairs. It's coming soon, no matter whether the Bai Bo army will come back from the counterattack, Xu Shu must gather the hearts of the people in Jinyang as soon as possible, and prepare to cooperate with Xiang Ao next year to drive Bai Bo out of Taiyuan.
