Chapter 150: The Battle of Kasaka
"Stubborn!" Emperor Wen of Sui, Empress Wenwen, nephew of Empress Yuanzhen of Tang Shizu, and Dugu Huaien, the secretary of the pseudo-Tang Ministry of Industry, narrowed his eyes and directly ordered: "Siege the city!" ”
Wei Ji's nephew, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Wei Yijie admonished: "Dugu Shangshu, Puban City is high and deep, our army has been attacking for several months, and now it is suddenly attacking, and it is urgent to go down, and I hope to be calm and impatient, so as to wait for the coming day!" ”
Hearing this, Dugu Huaien's eyes widened, and he said, "Waiting for the coming day?" When? This Yao Jun is a wooden fish head, he was a guard in the palace of the King of Jin, Yang Guang has a lot of favors to him, he has already made up his mind to be martyred for the Sui family, do you still expect him to open his mind!? ”
Wei Yijie frowned and said, "But, blindly attacking is not the way!" It's just a matter of increasing casualties! ”
Dugu Huaien asked, "Do you have a better way!?" ”
Seeing this, Wei Yijie didn't dare to contradict, so he had to arch his hand and say: "In this way, the last general is willing to fight for the adult!" ”
Hearing this, Dugu Huaien was overjoyed and said, "Okay! This seat orders you to lead the army to attack! ”
"Where is Lu Shaozong!?" Dugu Huaien asked again.
"The last general!" A seven-foot man draped all over his body came out.
"Let you personally lead the troops to supervise the siege of the city, and after breaking the city, this seat will remember you as the first credit!" Dugu Huai'en ordered himself.
"No!" Lu Shaozong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to the front army, commanded the Tang army, which was adapted from the righteous army, and lined up the whole team.
And Wei Yijie ordered loudly in the front army: "Drum and blow the trumpet~!" ”
Suddenly, a long and loud sound sounded outside the city, as if it came from the ground, dull and monotonous, like a person blowing the horn of the conch in your ear, shaking people's eardrums with the heartbeat, fluttering and trembling, unspeakably uncomfortable!
The sound of the long and muffled drum horn gradually subsided, and in an instant, it was like a thunder on the flat ground, and countless wild drums and trumpets sounded almost instantly, accompanied by the desperate shouts and war cries of the Hu people, like thousands of wild wolves and cheetahs roaring in unison, rolling in front of the Eastern Tang Army's position, even the water of the moat boiled slightly, and the fish no longer sank to the bottom, and jumped on the water one after another, desperately fluttering and struggling.
Yao Jun is a veteran of a hundred battles, so he naturally knows that the Tang army is using its strength to deter the enemy and weaken the will to defend the city. So, Yao Junsu ordered in a deep voice: "Wang Xingben, beat the drum!" Brethren cry out with me, wind, wind, wind! ”
"No!" Hearing the order, the Chaosan doctor and the fierce general Wang Xingben went shirtless, personally picked up the trumpet drumstick, and beat the drum in front of the city tower hard, and the Sui soldiers in the city also raised their hands one after another, directly raised the spear in their hands, and shouted loudly: "Wind~!" Wind~! Wind~! ”
Yao Junsu faced the current desperate situation, he used all his strength and shouted: "Great Sui~! Da Sui~! Da Sui~! ”
Soon, in the entire Puban City, everyone was shouting while raising the weapons in their hands, and the voice was like a roar of thousands of troops: "Great Sui~!" Da Sui~! Da Sui~! ”
Seeing that the shouting didn't work, Wei Yijie immediately pointed to the newly repaired Pusaka city wall and ordered loudly: "Catapult, prepare~!" ”
More than 30 catapults have been placed in place, about 400 steps away from the city wall, hundreds of Tang army sergeants, standing behind these catapults, countless stones loaded on the board carts, placed on the side of these catapults, all the strength of the arms of the nest place, has been placed a few catties to a dozen catties of stones, just wait for an order, will be ten thousand stones.
Seeing this, Yao Junsu shouted loudly: "Cloth curtain~!" ”
A hurried horn sounded at the head of the city of Pusaka City, sounded three times in a row, from the battlement of the female wall, at once stretched out hundreds of long bamboo poles, six or seven feet long, on each bamboo pole, hung a cloth cloth more than a zhang long, three or four layers thick, it looked like several thick quilts, the entire city wall and the battlements of Puban City, were tightly covered in this quilt.
Almost at the same time, the arms of thirty or forty catapults outside the city hung down heavily, and with the soldiers of the Tang Army pulling the front arms, with the neat force of the shouting trumpets, countless flying stones were overwhelming, directly smashing into the Pusaka city wall in the distance.
The sound of "pop" and "pop" is endless, as if it is the sound of hitting the defeated revolution with a heavy fist, ninety percent of the stones, directly smashed on these cloths, unloaded most of the power, and finally when it hit the city wall, it was already soft and weak, just knocked down a few layers of dust on the city wall, and it fell under the city, and many stones rolled into the moat about three zhang outside the city, and the sound of "plopping" and "plopping" was endless, and there were bursts of splash.
Occasionally, a few stones crossed these cloths and smashed into the head of Pusaka City, some buildings, arrow towers were hit, and several guard towers collapsed, and there were more than a dozen of these thick cloths, which also fell to the ground with these stones and towers on the ground, but soon a new bamboo pole with cloth hung on the back stretched out, and the bombardment lasted for more than a dozen rounds, and the stones under Puban City were half a foot high, and the thick cloth layer still perfectly wrapped the entire city wall, and not even a little wall surface.
"Huh~!" Wei Yijie seemed to have been able to predict the result a long time ago, and the two sides had staged dozens of attacks and defenses in the past few months, and both sides knew the bottom line and exhausted their means. He sneered, as if to let out the sullen breath of the past few months, and ordered: "Ant-attached siege city!" ”
Lu Shaozong, who couldn't wait for a long time, immediately threw his arms and said loudly: "Brothers, follow me to attack the city!" ”
I saw that the soldiers of the Tang Army, under the command of Lu Shaozong, were in front of the shield soldiers, holding large shields, and advancing quickly.
Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps, the Tang army under the command of Lu Shaozong, standing by the moat of Pusaka, hundreds of large wooden shields were quickly placed in front of the army, forming a barrier, and more than 3,000 Tang archers, one after another, drilled out from behind the shields, began to draw bows and arrows at the head of the city, the auxiliaries carried sandbags, soil bags, like mice and ants from behind the shields, threw these things into the dry moat, and soon, this ditch, which was only five feet wide and four feet deep, was basically leveled.
Bursts of black arrows rained out of the formation and flew towards the city, and Yao Junsu had long been familiar with the Tang army's offensive methods, and had already let the soldiers hide behind the shield bunkers, and the whole team of Sui saber axemen gathered in front of the Yongdao under the city wall to standby, ready to go to the city at any time, and give the Tang army that dared to attack the city to deal a fatal blow!
