Chapter 124 - A crushing victory
The enemy generals obviously didn't want to drag on for too long, this was not the home field, and they didn't have much food with them, and they could only last a few days. Besides, there is no need to guess, although the movement here is not big, but no matter how you say it, it is attacked, the city has not been lost, and it is impossible not to rescue the style of Xihao Kingdom.
The opportunity is rare, and after several temptations, I found that although the defense of the city is strong, it is strong in the use of equipment, and there are not many people at all, and they are not strong. The scattered team that was killed by themselves before was definitely the original defenders of this Yuyang County.
"Kill, whoever storms the tower is a centurion, and whoever opens the gate is a thousand-year-on, kill me." One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, and the merit is forged with countless blood.
Boiling oil, fire, and rolling wood...... The means are not endless, but if one of the people on the city tower dies, there will be one less, and the enemy army will exchange two for one, or even three or four for one.
Liu Wei was very anxious, the enemy army was obviously not ready to delay, and wanted to directly defeat him head-on.
Liu Feiyun also appeared on the city tower at this moment, the most undesirable situation still happened, even if the defense was tight, but in order to prevent the enemy from climbing up the city tower, it would naturally reveal flaws, and injuries were inevitable, but many of them died directly on the spot.
Seeing that it was about to be lost, the rescue had not arrived, and Ye Bingfeng and the others who had escaped had no intention of returning to help, if there were many casualties, the defense network would be torn apart, and they would no longer be able to stop them from climbing the city wall.
"Continue to pour fire oil, everyone give me caution and be careful, hide, the person with the shield will keep an eye on the flying arrows for me, life and death together, don't live up to the trust of the people around you."
Liu Wei continued to encourage, perhaps his words had an effect, and once again repelled the incoming enemy.
But seeing that there is hardly a single intact soldier of the castle, are they really sure that they can withstand the next onslaught? Most of them must have reached their limits!
Liu Wei and the others looked down on the next results, glanced at Feng Yu and the others, and then came to Liu Feiyun: "My lord, please move and leave first, the next officials and others will not be able to guarantee your safety!" ”
Liu Feiyun did not respond to them, staring at the enemy troops outside the city.
"Your Excellency?" The three of them persuade again!
Liu Feiyun raised his hand: "Needless to say, although it is precarious at the moment, it is not impossible to hold on." ”
"Liu Junwei, Feng Juncheng." Liu Feiyun shouted.
"The lower official is here!" The two answered.
"Feng Juncheng, you go and gather more oil and wine, the more the better. There are also people who bring water and ice cubes. This was his last effort, and although the alcohol content of ancient times was not high, the oil generally could not be extinguished with water, so alcohol containing alcohol, even if the alcohol content was low, could still support combustion.
"Yes." Feng Yu hurriedly left to prepare.
"Lieutenant Liu!" Liu Feiyun thought for a moment and said: "Let some people star, the field of vision is wide during the day, a sneak attack is almost impossible, others gather in the shade, the sun will soon rise and it will be even hotter, let everyone have a good rest to prepare for the next big battle." ”
"Yes!"
A bowl of cold boiled water, a few pieces of ice, and the slightest coolness made everyone regain a lot of spirits. Meals were also brought one after another, and everyone gulped down, and then leaned together and fell asleep.
I'm tired, I'm really tired, I want to sleep like this!
The enemy army is also resting, eating and recuperating. Looking at the wounded, disabled, and tired soldiers, he thought: "If you attack again, if you really can't attack it, you should retreat, and when you can't save it, the rescue will arrive." ”
"I really didn't expect the little Yuyang County to be so tenacious, I don't know who is in command, it's really not to be underestimated!" Through the trees, the general looked at the castle tower from afar.
Didn't give the city guards more time to rest, what they fought was toughness, they had more men and horses, and the people above were finally exhausted all day, and the state had dropped to the extreme, if he didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue, then he would not be a qualified general.
"Kill!"
Bows and arrows suppressed, desperately charging towards the city, this army is also ruthless, and began to fight completely.
"Pour, pour, watch out for the bow and arrow!" Liu Wei lit the torch while directing, and asked everyone to throw it down together, as well as the wine jar, which was smashed down like a rolling stone along with the wine.
The flames were instantly connected, and even the moment the wine jar exploded, there was a momentum of soaring to the sky, and the momentum of the attack was once again stopped.
But it was not without a solution, the enemy army was all wet with armor, and with a ruthless force, even if it was burned, it was able to rush to a higher place, and there were people below who directly shoveled soil to cover up the fire. In this way, supplemented by bow and arrow suppression, the gap was almost torn many times.
In this situation, there is no need for Feng Yu and them to persuade him, Liu Feiyun is reluctant to retreat, he will not do anything to martyr the country, Xihao Kingdom does not have this qualification.
However, as soon as he wanted to move, the downstairs in the city was full of voices, and Liu Feiyun said sharply: "What's the matter?" ”
A soldier guarding the city gate hurriedly reported: "Your Excellency, a large number of people have gathered below, and they hope to be able to fight against foreign enemies together with your lordship. ”
Liu Feiyun walked down the city tower and saw a dense group of people, holding a hoe in his hand, and saw him staring at him quietly one by one. A middle-aged man in front of him shouted: "My lord, please let us kill the enemy with you, we have the life we have today because of you, and we must not let the adults face the danger alone." ”
"That's it, my lord, I know that there are not many defenders in the city, and even so you have not abandoned us and chosen to resist desperately, how can we watch you fall."
"My lord, let's go with you."
Everyone asked for their lives, with determination in their eyes.
Faced with this situation, Liu Feiyun didn't know how to say it, he wanted to refuse, but refusal means loss, who knows what the group of people outside will do to the people? Maybe this can be regarded as self-help in disguise!
Liu Feiyun nodded: "Okay, then everyone go up in an orderly manner and listen to the command!" ”
"Yes, sir."
A group of people poured up the city tower, and at this moment, several enemy soldiers had rushed up, and many of them were about to break through the defense, without Liu Feiyun saying that the people rushed up and beat them to death directly, and there was no room for resistance.
Then the people picked up the swords and shields on the ground in a similar way, as well as dumped boiling oil and threw torches, but these supplies could not keep up with the replenishment, and the situation slowly turned into a hand-to-hand battle.
The number of people made the momentum rise all of a sudden, don't look at the people who have not undergone special training, but many people have a lot of strength and have repelled wave after wave.
The enemy did not give up, and was still struggling to kill. The defense was torn again and again, blocked again and again, and both sides suffered heavy losses.
Liu Feiyun joined the command, making the rhythm of the counterattack orderly. Liu Yi stood by his side, holding a shield in his hand to prevent any accidents.
"Woo~" has not been captured for a long time, and the losses on both sides are very heavy, and finally the other party can't accept the losses and chooses to retreat.
"Yay, win, win, they retreated."
"We won."
Many people cried with joy, hugged each other involuntarily, and some directly collapsed on the ground, which was really the limit of their bodies.
But immediately, the voice slowly disappeared, looking at many figures who had fallen to the ground and lost their breath, former comrades-in-arms, former companions, but today they are all gone.
After weeping with joy, sadness began to pervade.
Liu Feiyun didn't know how to persuade him, the only thing he could do was to command people to collect the corpses and treat the wounded, and he couldn't let them lose their hard-won lives because of delay.
It's miserable, it can be said that it is a miserable victory, it can also be said that there is no one on either side who wins or loses, the guards are basically fighting almost, there are only a few dozen people left in the hundreds of people now, and everyone is injured, which team is this victory.
However, Liu Feiyun and Feng Yu were not injured because they were in charge of command and dispatch.
"Feng Juncheng, you go and organize the people in the city, pay them, let them come and take care of the wounded, as well as the lost soldiers and people, all the soldiers and people on this city wall will be registered one by one today, and they will be given bereavement benefits, and the money will be paid by me."
"Yes, don't worry, sir."
"Hmm." Liu Feiyun instructed again: "Especially the dead and the disabled, give enough silver taels so that their families can live a good life." ”
It needs to be dealt with on the city walls, and even more so outside the city, leaving an unknown number of charred corpses outside, if left unattended, it is very likely to cause epidemics.
There is no doubt about the burial of their own people, as for the enemy army, they will directly incinerate and find a piece of land to dig pits and bury them at will.
There are a lot of things to do after the war, and the most important thing is to report the matter to the authorities. Especially the actions of Ye Bingfeng and others, and even the angry Feng Yu and Gong Nian exaggerated their bad deeds and wrote to accuse them of serious crimes.
Liu Feiyun didn't know what the final result would be, but such a person, he would never let him appear under Yuyang County's own rule again.
Finally sorted out a lot of things and prepared to go home, Liu Yi received a report from his subordinates, and then told Liu Feiyun about the matter, and he scolded on the spot: "I'm a grass and mud horse!" ”
The reason, naturally, Ye Bingfeng and a group of them appeared when they were attacked, but they went to attack Yunzhong County, just because you made Yuyang County suffer heavy losses, do you still want it to fall into dire straits and never recover!
"Someone." Liu Feiyun is really angry, he just wants to live a peaceful and stable life now, and if he continues like this, he is not forced to leave. Seeing a servant come in, he said, "Go and call Feng Juncheng, Gongjian Yushi, and Liu Weijunwei." ”
"Yes!"
After a while, the three of them appeared, Liu Wei was injured, his hands were wrapped in gauze, this time he almost died, but fortunately a soldier pushed him, otherwise he might die directly.
The three of them asked, "My lord, I don't know what you are looking for us?" ”
Liu Feiyun didn't hide it, and directly informed them of the news he got, and the three of them were like thunder, especially Liu Wei, who forgot the injury on his hand and slapped it on the table: "Shaft, hateful!" "The wound began to crack and blood was oozing.
Liu Feiyun said his purpose: "I am going to send a letter again, this time we will jointly sign a letter, eight hundred miles to expeditious, tell his crimes, and the war may break out again, and I need to urgently ask for help!" ”
The three of them did not hesitate and nodded heavily: "Okay!" ”
