Chapter 34: The Scourge of the Rapid War 5
In front of the bed crossbow team and behind the infantry battalion, Fang Hua commanded the siege banner in the name of Lin Xiu's personal order, and the momentum was like a landslide in front of his body, which shook the hearts of the Donglin warriors at the head of the city.
In the howling, more than 1,000 sturdy Bei'an soldiers used as crossbowmen, and they exerted their strength to open the crossbow strings that were as hard as steel, and when the sound of the slamming strings was released, the swishing killing momentum went straight to the city, and in the blink of an eye, the Donglin species on the city wall of the west gate of Yuyang County turned over, and the rest of the people were pressed and couldn't raise their heads, so they could only hide behind the battlements to find an opportunity to save their lives.
After the horn passed, the benefit of the surprise attack of the Bei'an army was gone, so Fang Hua urgently ordered Lin Xiu to send back the order to Lin Xiu, please attack, Lin Xiu immediately sent two teams of Chinese army foot soldiers, and ran towards the south gate and the north gate of Yuyang County.
At the head of the city, Li Chengxun had just stabilized the defense of the city wall, and when he saw the Xia soldiers attacking under the city, he suddenly said urgently: "Quick, immediately inform the general that the Xia soldiers seem to have the intention of fake attack, and the north, west, and south gates are uncertain, please worry about attacking!" β
The county guard, General Da Ri has not yet stabilized his buttocks, and an urgent notice from the direction of the city gate came, but General Da Ri had already mentioned Li Minghao's point, and he was not panicked at all this time.
"The summer soldiers are coming, do you know the strength of the troops?"
In the face of questioning, Ling Bing said: "There is a horizontal formation outside the west gate, two teams on the left and right, and they have rushed to the north gate and the south, and the remaining soldiers are too far apart. β
Hearing this, Li Minghao said: "One column at a time, two teams come out, and the rest must be cavalry, that is to say, there are at most 10,000 Xia soldiers in front of the city gate!" β
"10,000 Xia soldiers are like breaking through the city where the general is stationed, these Xia people are too arrogant!"
General Da Ri laughed, but Li Minghao stopped again: "General, this 10,000 Xia soldiers seem to be wrong with the general, but their combat power really can't be underestimated, in the opinion of his subordinates, it is better to hold it firmly!" β
As he was talking, the North Gate made an urgent report, saying that the Xia soldiers really launched an attack on the city, which made General Da Ri frown: "General Li, this seems to be a little different from your estimate!" β
"General, subordinates dare to vouch for their lives, the urgent battle that the Xia soldiers need, and the rapid battle and the general are not advantageous, why did the Xia soldiers attack with weak troops this time, the subordinates are uncertain, but..."
"That's it!"
General Da Ri said in a deep voice: "No matter what the Xia soldiers do, if they want the generals to attack the enemy with all their might, it is absolutely impossible, but if they don't make any resistance, it is not the demeanor of the generals!" Command the left and right military attachΓ©s, and the first 2,000 warriors will go out of the city to explore the bottom! β
"General..."
Li Minghao was anxious to hear this, but General Da Ri leaked a sinister smile: "General, even though the Xia people are powerful, but the afterglow of the sunset can't burn the general, this battle, how strong is the ability of the Xia people who are going to be quiet!" β
In front of the main team of the Bei'an Army, Lin Xiu led his troops to calm down here, and as the battle situation continued to pass back, Tang Chuanwen on the side said: "General, this Donglin person can really bear it, but the general must also be careful of the three indiscriminate actions of the Donglin people!" β
"Changshi, rest assured, Ben will not be so mediocre as a plan!"
In the words, Pei Changfeng sent an order, the two thousand infantry army forced the west gate of Yuyang County, the attack was fruitless, the north gate Lin Sheng raided, and was resisted by the Donglin people outside the moat, the south gate Jiao Chu and Lin Sheng's situation is not much different, it can be said that the three-way offensive did not have an advantage all the way.
"Pass the order to the three and continue to attack in this situation!"
Ling Bing was a little confused when he heard it, but seeing that Lin Xiu's face was unmoved, Ling Bing could only act accordingly, and later, Lin Xiu Chong Tang Chuanwen and Zhuang Fei said: "On weekdays, the two are based on strategy, but there are quite few people available in the Chinese army today, so the general wants to ask the two to lead the troops to set up an ambush and help the general!" β
"General, please speak, the two of us will definitely die in front of you!"
Not long after, Tang Chuanwen and Zhuang Fei each led more than 1,000 troops to leave the Chinese army.
At the head of the city, in the face of the attack of Pei Changfeng's infantry battalion, Li Chengxun was really anxious, I have to say that the armor blade of the Xia people is really powerful, and in the face of the bow and crossbow of the Donglin people, the infantry battalion will not retreat, as for the casualties, there are even few, just because the infantry battalion is not equipped with sharp weapons such as rushing cars to break the city gate, otherwise the west gate at this moment has been broken.
When the infantry battalion was about to cross the moat and build a ladder, Li Minghao came up from the city ladder, and Li Chengxun was relieved when he saw the general of the Great Staff.
"General, the Xia people's offensive is urgent and fierce, if we continue like this, we are afraid that we will not be able to guard against it!"
"If you can't take precautions, you just wait for your head to move!"
Li Minghao snorted, and Li Chengxun immediately stopped talking.
Looking at the Xia army formation slowly approaching, Li Minghao glanced at the Xia army in the distance, where in the forest, there was really a flag shaking, it can be seen that those hidden surprise soldiers are the killing moves of the Xia army.
"The general has an order, open the city to meet the enemy!"
Li Chengxun, who was commanding the battle, was shocked when he heard this, when the Xia soldiers were on the offensive, Li Minghao asked them to go out of the city to fight for their lives, this is definitely the next policy, Li Minghao found that Li Chengxun hesitated, and immediately scolded again: "What's the matter?" Are you scared? β
"General, this... This summer soldier is on the offensive, if we go out... I'm afraid that I will follow in the footsteps of Yin Dongli and those people! β
"Idiot!"
Li Minghao shouted: "The general has his own strategy, you don't need to think about it, otherwise the military law will be engaged!" β
Under the strong order, Li Chengxun could not, he could only run to the city wall, ready to lead his troops to attack, but in the city gate road, Li Chengxun saw thousands of Xia people were strongly suppressed here, and the warrior flag officer ran and said: "Lord Zuo, the general has an order, so that these Xia people take it as a meat shield and counterattack the Xia people. β
"I see!" Li Chengxun was overjoyed and immediately ordered someone to open the city gate.
Outside the city gate, Pei Changfeng led the rifle battalion to slowly press in, but the city gate suddenly opened, Pei Changfeng was surprised, and the infantry soldiers in the front immediately exclaimed: "Don't kill by force... It's the summer people... It's the summer people! β
With a shout, Pei Changfeng and the small colonels of the various teams of infantry muskets were stunned, and looked through the shield array, the poor Xia captives in front of them ran out crying, and behind them, the Donglin warriors forcibly pressed with swords, guns, crossbows and arrows, and they could not do it, these Xia people could only rush to the front of their own army.
"Damn Donglin people, retreat, retreat!"
Because of such a sudden change, Pei Changfeng could only order a retreat, otherwise if they killed in a wave, these more than a thousand Xia people would become their own sword ghosts. But in this way, it is contrary to Lin Xiu's military strategy of taking advantage of the situation to attack.
Behind the turbulence of the Xia people, Li Chengxun led more than 2,000 Donglin warriors to kill the Quartet and rushed forward, under the resistance of the Xia people's meat shield, Pei Changfeng's infantry battalion really could not fight again, and could only retreat a hundred steps away.
