Niu Fu panicked.

Zhang Ji hit him to the point.

Looking around, I am afraid that by this time tomorrow, the soldiers who can afford to hold weapons will be considered good if they can make up enough for 5,000, but they are all frozen to the point that their bones are about to shatter, and their morale is low.

The Soviet troops outside the city combined with 60,000 people.

Tenfold soldiers!

Niu Fu really has no confidence, he can resist and defend the Great Valley Pass.

When he was anxious, Zhang Ji smiled and said: "Xiu'er, you are afraid that the soldiers will freeze, this is true, but you are worried that the enemy army will take advantage of the situation to tackle the problem, which is a bit too worried." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Xiu was stunned and didn't react.

Zhang Ji pointed to the vast snow above his head and sneered: "Xiu'er, when you have big eyes in this vast snow, do you deliberately only fall on top of our heads, not on the heads of the enemy?" ”

Zhang Xiu's body was shocked, and he suddenly realized, patted his forehead and said: "What my uncle said is, look at my head, I am really confused, our army is frozen, and the enemy army will also be frozen, why should they take the opportunity to attack the city." ”

The conversation between the uncle and nephew also made Niu Fu suddenly realize, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He calmed down and snorted coldly: "Su Zhe's little rabbit cub has nothing to be afraid of, we still have a city wall to shelter from the wind and rain, he camped in the wilderness, I am afraid that he will be even more miserable." ”

After that, Niu Fu didn't take the Soviet army outside the gate seriously, but sent people to rush to Guanzhong in the starry night, urging the winter clothes to be delivered as soon as possible, and asked Dong Zhuo to send a wave of reinforcements to replace the soldiers who were reduced by frostbite.

A snowy night passed quickly, and when the sky was bright, the snow fell in the middle of the night, and finally stopped.

The cold wind has stopped, the sun has risen in the east, and the temperature has begun to warm up slightly.

For the Xiliang people in Guancheng, this night is like a year, they finally survived the coldest night, and they can face the sun to get a little warm.

Niu Fu roughly counted the number of soldiers, and there were as many as three or four thousand soldiers who were frostbitten and lost their combat effectiveness this night, almost half of them.

The non-combat attrition has reached such a point that under normal circumstances, Niu Fu has already ordered to abandon the castle and retreat.

It was only considering that the Soviet army had suffered the same crime, so Niu Fu was relieved and ordered to continue to hold the fortress, hoping that the temperature would rise quickly and return to normal.

Bell bell bell ~~

Just as Niu Fu had just stepped into the room with his front feet and was about to make up for sleep, in the direction of the south gate of the city, the sound of gongs suddenly sounded.

The sound of the gong means that there is an enemy army attacking the city.

"What do you mean, Su Zhe's little rabbit cub was frozen all night, could it be that he still plans to attack the city?"

Niu Fu was taken aback, full of surprise, and hurriedly dragged his tired body again, and galloped up to the south gate.

When he rushed to the front line of the city, Zhang Ji, who was in charge of guarding, had already scolded the 5,000 soldiers who could hold weapons and drove the city head to defend the city.

When Niu Fu climbed to the top of the city, he saw that the soldiers who were already shivering from the cold were shivering even more than before, and the word "fear" was written on their faces.

Zhang Ji's face was also solemn, looking in the direction of the outside of the city, with an anxious expression.

"What's going on, could it be that the little rabbit cub still wants to attack the city?" Niu Fu asked puzzled.

Zhang Ji glanced at him, pointed in the direction outside the city, and said silently: "The general will see for himself." ”

With a hint of foreboding in his heart, Niu Fu slowly walked to the city wall and poked his head out of the battlements.

In an instant, his face changed color in shock.

In front of the city, on the vast snow, 60,000 Soviet troops lined up in a mighty formation, and the momentum was magnificent.

The 60,000 Soviet sergeants and soldiers, all of them wore thick jackets, fearless of the cold, and were full of murderous spirit.

"The enemy army is ...... All in thick jackets? Why do they seem to be prepared? How is this possible? ”

Niu Fu looked stunned, his tone was trembling, and his face was incredulous.

Zhang Ji next to him suddenly realized and said: "General, I heard that Su Zhe has the magical ability to understand the heavens, could it be that he predicted that there would be heavy snow and a sudden drop in temperature last night, so he put on winter clothes for his soldiers in advance?" ”

A thunderbolt on a sunny day thundered overhead, and Niu Fu was suddenly shocked.

He looked at the Soviet army outside the city in amazement again, and then realized that those magical rumors about Su Zhe turned out to be true.

This head of the Nine Wonders, the current Wolong, really has the ability to recognize the heavens and predict the wind and rain!

Otherwise, how could he prepare winter clothes for his army a month in advance, and avoid the severe cold of last night in time.

"This stinky boy, he actually ...... Unexpectedly, ...... "Niu Fu, who was surprised, reached the point of incoherence for a while.

He was frightened, and the Xiliang soldiers who were frozen to the ground on the 5,000th were even more panicked, and they didn't know what to do.

In the face of the Soviet army, dressed in winter clothes, with high morale and full morale, they had completely lost confidence before the war began.

And the Soviet troops outside the city were fighting like a rainbow.

Looking at the trembling enemy troops at the head of the city, the Soviet soldiers were like hungry tigers and wolves, and they couldn't wait to kill.

Su Zhe, who was sitting on a horse, glanced at the soldiers who were like a rainbow, raised his horsewhip towards the enemy city, and shouted: "Beat the drums, the whole army will attack, and I will step on the Dagu Pass." ”

Knock Knock Knock –

The sound of war drums rose into the sky, shattering the silence of the snowfields.

The officers and men of the Soviet army, who had been arrayed for a long time, were in a roar, and one after another, stepping on the snow, advanced towards the Otani Pass City.

In the blink of an eye, the Soviet army had approached a hundred paces in front of the city.

The sword and shield bearers raised their shields, opened the way, covered the foot soldiers in the formation, carried the ladder, and approached the enemy city step by step.

Niu Fu at the head of the city only woke up from the shock at this time, and before he could think about it, he hurriedly shouted: "Release the arrows, release the arrows to Lao Tzu, and block the enemy and thieves!" ”

The order was passed down, and the panicked Xiliang crossbowmen hurriedly picked up the crossbow and tried to release the arrows.

It was only a night of severe cold, and their hands were stiff, and they were horrified to find that the bowstring, which could normally be easily pulled, was now filled with lead, which was extremely difficult.

After a lot of effort, hundreds of crossbowmen barely pulled the strings and successfully fired sharp arrows at the Soviet army.

It's just that the scattered arrows, which have neither quantity nor quality, are simply not able to effectively strike at the Soviet army.

On the contrary, on the side of the Soviet army, nearly 4,000 crossbowmen calmly fired arrows towards the city, and the sharp arrows like rain rose into the air and shot at the city head overwhelmingly.

Those Xiliang soldiers who were frozen to the point that their minds were unclear and their consciousness was slow, and their reactions were half a beat slower than before, and they didn't have time to dodge the arrows, and they were shot down in a large area in the blink of an eye.

Blood splattered, hundreds of enemy soldiers fell in a pool of blood in the blink of an eye, and the screams shook the sky.

The enemy army at the head of the city was suppressed by sharp arrows, and the Soviet siege team calmly approached the front of the moat, and erected the moat bridge in an orderly manner, and thousands of Soviet soldiers poured into the base of the city wall like a tide.

"Rack me up the ladder!" Xu Huang, who took the lead and rushed to the city, brandished the sharp axe in his hand and shouted loudly.

In the sound of trumpets, more than 100 cloud ladders were raised by trees and smashed on the city wall.

Xu Huang pointed at the head of the city with a big axe and shouted: "Brothers, it is the man who has taken out his blood, give me the city, the first one to attack the city, the first merit!" ”

The order was handed down, and the Bai Bo pawns under Xu Huang's command, all like fierce tigers, began to scramble, desperately climbing the ladder and attacking the city.

For a time, the Soviet army along the front line of the city launched a full-line attack on the enemy city, and the city walls were densely packed with soldiers.

The Soviets were on the offensive fiercely.

On the side of the Xiliang Army, the number is small, the morale is low, and they are so frozen that they can't even hold their weapons, how can they effectively resist the siege of the Soviet army.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the Soviet army occupied an overwhelming advantage, and even if Niu Fu shouted and shouted to the death, he could not suppress the offensive of the Soviet army.

Along the front line of the city, the Soviet army has attacked the city several times, but it is only by relying on Zhang Xiu's personal superb martial arts that he forcibly killed and retreated the Soviet army that landed in the city, and temporarily protected the city head.

It's just that Zhang Xiu is alone, how can he stop the thousands of Soviet troops, and the city of Otani is already crumbling.

In the Central Military Department, Su Zhe sat and watched the battle, and naturally saw that the victory or defeat of this siege had been decided, and it was only a matter of time before it was broken.

It's just that he also saw that his soldiers were attacking the city with all their might, but Bai Bo's army consciously refused to go all out, as if he had preserved his strength and didn't want to be killed or injured.

Only Xu Huang's subordinates used all their strength to attack the city, and the degree of hard work even exceeded that of his descendants.

Seeing this situation, Su Zhe couldn't help but frown.

"Su Che rides, except for Xu Huang, Bai Bo's army doesn't seem to work too hard, it seems that Yang Feng's gang is not really attached to them, and Su Che must be guarded against."

Dong Zhao beside him reminded in a low voice, obviously with his resourcefulness, he also saw the trickiness.

Su Zhe smiled coldly, "The Baibo army was originally a grass on the wall, and I didn't expect them to do their best, first capture Dagu Pass, take Luoyang is important, and when the war in the north is over, I will clean them up." ”
