Xu Jie sat in the barracks, which was close to the city wall at the south gate, and after the battle began, there was a steady stream of military information.
Xu Jie led the army for the first time independently, and at the beginning, he was quite nervous, but as soon as the battle started, Xu Jie's heart quieted down, and all the original worries and anxiety disappeared.
However, the discussion about the purpose of birth should be put aside for a while, and the overall situation in front of us should be focused.
According to the military situation, the south gate is the main direction target of the enemy's attack, and there are about 3,000 enemy coalition troops outside the city, and the other three gates also have 1,000 coalition troops each.
The direction of attack of the rebels in the city is also mainly based on the south gate, and the other directions are complementary, listening to the shouts and killing outside the city, Xu Jie suddenly felt that there was a terrible hole in his arrangement.
He only had a thousand soldiers in his hands, and his original arrangement was to divide his troops to guard the four gates. As a result, the pie is evenly distributed in every direction, resulting in the dispersion of forces and the absence of priorities.
Lu County is an upper county, and the circumference of the entire county reaches ten miles, but as a result, his thousand men and horses are evenly spread on the city walls around ten miles, and people can hardly hear each other's words, how can they resist the enemy's attack?
The defense of this county is a sieve, a mesh can drill through the sieve of an old sow, what other city defense is there?
There is another point, that is, there are countless rebels in the city now, and they can't send troops to quell the chaos, so the current county town is equivalent to the loss of nothing, what are you doing with the division of troops to guard the four gates?
It seems that I am still a fledgling, and I take everything for granted, and this arrangement is equivalent to letting the enemy defeat us individually.
Thinking of this, Xu Jie groaned slightly, immediately grabbed the sword beside him, and rushed directly to the South Gate Tower.
At the head of the city, Cao Meng stared closely at the battle in the inner city, and he was going to mobilize longbowmen to reinforce the inner city, but there was no need for this at all, Cao Meng was very satisfied with the results achieved in the inner city, very satisfied, so he lay on the city gate and yelled at the centurion under the city: "Liangzi, just do it, kill those bitches." ”
So, the centurion Liangzi shouted at the top under the city: "Don't worry, commander, just those local chickens and dogs, don't want to get close to our city gate." ”
Then he yelled at the brothers who had already experienced blood and fire and turned into veterans: "The five hundredth team, the spearmen are ready, and they will not retreat." ”
The brothers, who were already full of confidence, immediately responded loudly together: "Fight to the death and don't retreat, kill-"
Cao Meng is now equal to being attacked on both sides, but seeing the performance of his brothers and the record of this gun array, not only is he not worried at all, but his confidence has doubled, and now he has to face the main force of the rebel coalition outside the city that is about to attack again.
One hundred and fifteen pairs of more than 4,000 rebel coalition troops inside and outside, although they have tall and strong city walls to rely on, this huge contrast does make Cao Meng feel incomparably pressured.
Taking a deep breath, the south gate roared, and with the sea breeze and salty south wind, Cao Meng yelled at the brothers who were less than two hundred on the city wall: "Brothers, fight to the death and never retreat." ”
Then he turned to the herald beside him and said, "Hurry up and inform the brothers of the other three gates to resolutely defend the city wall." ”
"No, you immediately order the brothers of the other three gates, give up the other three gates, and immediately defend the south gate." At this time, a calm voice sounded behind Cao Meng, Cao Meng turned to look, but it was Xu Jie's military master who strode over, holding his sword tightly in his hand.
"Strategist, why is that?" Cao Meng was puzzled that giving up the other three doors was equivalent to giving up the county seat and giving up everyone's foundation.
Xu Jie glanced at the rebel torches shining in the night sky inside and outside the city, and after glancing at the battlefield under the city and in front of the city gate, he glanced at the surging enemy army outside the city, and said firmly: "There are countless rebels in the city, and there are at least 7,000 enemies outside the city. Two thousand sergeants faced the rebels, and I had the confidence to make the county town back into our hands. ”
This is the wisest choice when the enemy is outnumbered, Cao Meng pondered for a while, and he had to admire the courage of his strong military advisor to break his wrist. So without saying a word, he immediately ordered the heralds around him to give orders to the other three gates, give up the defense of the other three city gates, and concentrate on defending the south gate, as long as the south gate does not fall, it means that the county town is not lost, once General Zhang Yan's army comes back to help, he can join forces and recapture the entire county seat.
The two centurions of the Xicheng defense, one is Wang Da and the other is Wang Er, they are two brothers, they were originally experienced in the Yellow Turban Army, since following Lu Peng, they have a target direction in their hearts, and their chests are full of enthusiasm for fighting at any time. Especially when Lu Peng rewarded military merits last time, the respect and treatment that those 20 meritorious soldiers who were worthy of medals received by the entire base area simply made the two brothers blush.
I thought that if I was sent to guard the county seat this time, there would be no battle to fight, and my heart was full of frustration and discouragement. But unexpectedly, at this time, all of a sudden, the clans in the county began to riot, giving them a chance to show their talents. was sent to the west gate of Luxian County to defend, and the two brothers were ready to do a big job.
As soon as they took over the task of guarding the West Gate, the two brothers summed it up together, and this time they figured it out with their heels, this is the rebellion of the entire Luxian family, of course, there will be enemies outside the city to attack, and the commercial shops of the family in the city must not stand idly by, which is also known from the strange situation in the county in the past few days.
"Second brother, I took 50 brothers to guard in the city gate hole, to ensure that the city gate was not robbed by the thieves in the city, you took other brothers to guard the city wall, you can remember for me, you must withstand the attack of the enemy outside the city, if the west gate is lost in the hands of our brothers, we don't need to be punished by the lord, our brothers will directly wipe their necks and hang themselves on this city tower."
Guarding the city gate under the city is definitely a very dangerous task, so Wang Er immediately retorted: "Brother, you are wrong, your prestige in the hearts of the sergeants is very high, it is most appropriate for you to command the overall situation, I will take 50 brothers to guard the city gate hole, brother rest assured, I will never let you down." ”
Wang Da wanted to say something, but Wang Er said with a smile: "It is a matter of course for the so-called little brother to be tired. Then he said enviously again, "Another one, you just bought a sister-in-law a few months ago, and I have to wait for you to leave some incense for our Wang family, and I am a single person, and I will die in battle for the lord, and these pensions can also be used to supplement you." When he said this, there was only satisfaction on his face, but there was no complaint or fear.
Wang Da was depressed. Yes, when the base area bought women from outside, he also used the looting money he had quietly saved to buy himself a mother-in-law, that mother-in-law had big breasts and round shares, and she was definitely a person who could give birth to her, as long as she was fed with good grass and good materials, and worked harder, she would definitely be able to leave incense for the Wang family.
With this reason, Wang Da could only pat his brother on the shoulder and agree to this suggestion, which was his own responsibility, and definitely not greedy for life and afraid of death.
