Chapter 496: Important?
As Chen Xing said, after a little relaxation for more than half an hour, the dog Rong launched a more fierce attack again.
In the dark night, tens of thousands of canine soldiers rushed to the pickaxe capital like black ghosts, jumping, shouting, and galloping madly towards the pickaxe capital.
"You're so right, these dogs are really not as simple as we think! If we let our guard down, they might be able to conquer the city. The pickaxe guard said to Chen Xing in a panic.
"All the soldiers, you must resist this attack of the enemy." Chen Xing did not answer the words of the defender of Hojing, but said to the defenders of the city.
At this time, Ying Kang came to the city, looked at the dog Rong soldiers who were frantically attacking under the city, and said to Chen Xing: "After repelling this attack, the dog Rong should also retreat." ”
Withdrawn?
Will the dog soldiers who attack so fiercely evacuate?
Chen Xing was a little unconvinced, "Your Majesty, you said that the dog Rong would withdraw tonight?" No, the strength of the dog Rong is far above us at the moment, how can they withdraw their troops? ”
Ying Kang smiled faintly and said, "Look at it, the dog will definitely withdraw within two hours." ”
Ying Kang is right, in fact, Huoyun, the king of the dog Rong under the city, also thinks so, he knows very well that with the protection of the Qin army, coupled with the height of the pickaxe capital city, even if all the dog Rong army is put in, he may not be able to conquer the pickaxe capital.
If you insist on attacking the city when you know that it is not advisable, it is tantamount to suicide.
But for the sake of his own face and the dignity of Inu-yong, he decided to launch a final onslaught on Hokyo before retreating.
And this time the attack must be fierce and impress the opponent.
So during this attack, Inurong not only used up all his troops, but also put a lot of effort into it.
Before attacking, the Inurong army also followed the example of the Qin people, first shooting the defenders of the city with bows and arrows.
Due to the suddenness of this time, and the fact that the number of Inurong soldiers was obviously much larger than that of the soldiers defending the city, the density of shooting was much higher than that of the soldiers defending the city.
Under the intensive fire of the dog soldiers outside the city, the royal army and the Qin army defending the city were wounded, and even the Hojing guard was shot in the shoulder.
"These Rong Di even shot us with bows and arrows, what can we do?" The pickaxe Jing Shou who was hit by the arrow ran over to ask Ying Kang Dao in pain.
"What else, hurry up and order the soldiers to hide behind the battlements! There are obviously more enemies than us, shoot with them, we are definitely not opponents, stand and wait for death! "Isn't it a joke that I don't know what to do today. Ying Kang had no choice but to say to the Ho Jing guard.
"The last will understand." After listening to Yingkang's words, the Hokyung guard seemed to understand what was going on and immediately ordered the soldiers to hide.
Hiding is hiding, but there is no movement under the city.
What's going on?
The Hokyo guard didn't know what was going on, and kept hiding behind the battlements.
At this time, Chen Xing came over to him and said, "Come out, the dog Rong army has withdrawn." ”
The Inujung army withdrew?
The pickaxe guard emerged from behind the battlements and looked down tentatively from the top of the castle.
Oops! There is really nothing left, and there is nothing left under the pickaxe capital in this time.
"Good guy, this dog's speed is really fast enough, it's only been a little time, and there is no trace of retreat." The Hokyo guard saw that the originally dense Inurong army under the city seemed to have been evacuated in an instant.
The Inujung army has withdrawn, and the soldiers defending the city should also rest and rest.
At noon the next day, Yingkang got up and came to the capital of Ho. At this time, the pickaxe capital city stood like a giant beast in the middle of the Guanzhong Plain, looking at the east. The gates opened, and there were soldiers cleaning up the traces of the previous night's battle.
At this time, Chen Xing and Ho Jing came to the city together, "The last general Chen Xing has seen the king. After seeing Yingkang, Chen Xing bowed.
Ying Kang turned his head to Chen Xing and said, "Get up." ”
"The Ho Jing Shou has seen the Hou of Kansai." Ho Kyung Shogun followed suit.
Ying Kang could tell that the wound on the shoulder of the general was still bleeding, "The general's wound is still bleeding, so don't come out." In case of cold, it is not good for the wound. ”
Hearing Ying Kang's words, the Hojing defender was very emotional, "Guanxi Hou, I won't tell you, our Hojing defenders have long been abandoned over the years, I have been a soldier for so many years, and it is the first time I have experienced such a big battle." What is a little injury? It's much better than those who were killed by Rong Di without even fighting. ”
Of course, Ying Kang knew that the defenders of Haojing were telling the truth, since Tiangong Yan succeeded to the throne, Haojing's defenders had hardly practiced much, let alone experienced any decent battles.
As a soldier, this is actually a shame, especially for those royal troops who were killed by the dog Rong without fighting at all.
You are a soldier, and you were killed without even moving in the face of battle, is this still considered a soldier?
Although the Hokyo guard was a little injured today, not only did he not feel ashamed, but he felt that it was a very honorable thing, after all, the injury on his body was injured by the dog Rong when he was defending Hokyo.
It's a glorious thing to say!
After listening to the words of the general of Hojing, Ying Kang said with a smile: "After this war, the general can be regarded as a person who has experienced the war, and you don't have to worry about the dog Rong coming over again in the future." ”
The Ho Jing guard shook his head: "Guanxi Hou, you have raised the last general, although after this battle, Ho Jing can be saved, but I know very well in my heart that if there is no protection from you Qin people, we people will not be able to keep Ho Jing." ”
Yingkang thought to himself, you are quite a good person, and you know how many catties and taels you have.
Although he thought so in his heart, he couldn't say this on his lips, so he said politely: "The general is too modest, after this battle, you can be regarded as people who have been trained, and if there is a battle in the future, it should not be a problem to defend Hojing." By the way, I told the general, now that the dog Rong has retreated, the widow has decided to return to Yucheng tomorrow with the Qin army, and it has been some time since he came out. ”
As soon as he heard that Yingkang was going to return to Yucheng with the army tomorrow, the Ho Jing guard was anxious, "Guanxi Hou, you said that you will return to Yucheng with the army tomorrow, what should we do if you leave?" ”
Looking at the anxious look of the general of Hojing, Yingkang wanted to laugh a little, "The widow doesn't know what the general means?" Inurong has been withdrawn, the danger of Hokyo has been lifted, there should be nothing left for you, and it would be a little inappropriate for the widow to continue to stay here. ”
After listening to Ying Kang's words, Ho Jing Shou said: "Guanxi Hou, didn't you say that the dog Rong is capricious, and they seem to be gone at the moment, but who knows if they will come here again?" What are we going to do if you just walk with your front foot and they come with your back foot? ”
Ying Kang smiled after hearing this: "No, the widow has already said that the dog Rong will not be killed for a while and a half, general, you can rest assured, the widow has been out with the troops for some time, if you don't go back, the things on the side of Yucheng are also reassuring." ”
Seeing that Yingkang insisted on leaving, the general of Haojing was anxious, grabbed Yingkang's sleeve and said, "Guanxi Hou, I have something important to tell you at the end." ”
Events?
Ying Kang looked at the guard of Ho Jing suspiciously.
