Text Section 130 A real tough battle
Outside the capital, the siege equipment of the Xiyue battalion was lined up, and more than 30 catapults were also pushed out of the camp. Xiao Zhanfeng looked at the opposite city, and he wanted Li Jianshan to understand that Lidu City could no longer withstand the attack of his army.
A staff general stood behind Xiao Zhanfeng and asked suspiciously, "General Xiao, are we really not attacking the city today?" ”
Xiao Zhanfeng said lightly, "It's nothing to let them live one more day." ”
"General, our grain and grass will all be used up tomorrow. If you do this, you will not understand it in the end. ”
Xiao Zhanfeng turned around and looked at the generals behind him, "Listen, we don't want to loot the capital city, General Han wants to occupy this place for a long time." Take this city, and all the county cities behind us will belong to my Xiyue. Therefore, General Ben did this to let the people in the city see that our Xiyue army was benevolent and righteous. After taking this city, it is better to do some pacification work. Punishing people and punishing hearts, the combination of grace and power is the king. ”
"General Takami."
A group of generals and commanders patted their ass. In their eyes, the capital city is basically in the bag. Since it is going to be occupied for a long time, it is indeed necessary to use both grace and power against the people in the city. After all, in the future, they will rely on this group of people to create a lot of wealth for Western Vietnam. Otherwise, only one empty city was taken, which was not Han Pingzi's original intention.
Above the city, Li Jianshan and the others looked at the rows of catapults and ladders to climb the city, but they had a different taste in their hearts.
"Jianshan, he's demonstrating to us. If Duan Lang can't catch up before noon tomorrow, I'm afraid we'll all have to fight it. Zhou Guangji looked at the other side and said.
Li Jianshan frowned, turned around and asked a thousand presidents, "How much pine oil do we have?" ”
"My lord, all the pine oil in the city has been gathered, and there are only a little more than three barrels left."
"What, so little?" Li Jianshan asked in surprise.
"The last dose was too big, and there are only so many left."
Li Jianshan said helplessly, "Prepare dry firewood immediately, if you can't do it, you will set a fire curtain under the city." ”
Han Feng shook his head, "Jianshan, the other party has a catapult, in case they launch a fire attack first, and the city will prepare a large amount of dry firewood, it will be a self-digging grave." What's more, if the fire is too big, the city walls are loose, and it is easy to collapse if it is continuously smashed by catapults. If you want me to say, bear with me. If Duan Lang really didn't arrive in time, we people could only fight hard. At the very least, it can hold on for an hour or two. ”
Li Jianshan sighed slightly, "I hope that Duan Lang guy didn't lie to me, otherwise, let's see how Lao Tzu turns around and settles accounts with him." ”
Inside and outside the capital, the enemy and us faced off peacefully for a day. After a long night, Li Jianshan stayed awake all night, and his eyes were red. Early in the morning, Li Jianshan came to the top of the city.
As soon as the hour passed, the war drums of the large battalion on the opposite side sounded, and the left and right sides of the row of infantry battalions lined up. The middle army is a 20,000 cavalry battalion led by Xiao Zhanfeng. The main general raised the banner high, and Xiao Zhanfeng came to the front of the battle.
Xiao Zhanfeng raised his head domineeringly, looked at Li Jianshan above the city, and shouted loudly, "Hey~!" Why don't you open the gates and go out of the city? Why, are you going to break your promise? Hehe, this kind of procrastination is nothing more than to let you live one more day. General Ben is magnanimous, and it is not too late to surrender. Otherwise, Hugh blames General Ben for being ruthless. ”
Xiao Zhanfeng didn't believe that the other party dared to go out of the city to face the battle, so he still changed a large number of cavalry battalions into siege infantry battalions. Even if the other party dared to go out of the city to face the battle, he believed that the 20,000 cavalry army behind him would be enough to sweep away these ants in the capital.
Li Jianshan looked at the sun and shouted loudly, "What are you anxious about, this official is going to pinch the auspicious time when he goes on the expedition." Don't worry, before noon, I will go out of the city to fight you to the death. ”
"Hehe, okay, General Ben is waiting for you." Xiao Zhanfeng looked at Li Jianshan mockingly, and said in his heart to see how long you can pretend.
Li Jianshan prayed silently in his heart, and Zhou Guangji and Han Feng were also waiting for him. The carelessness of the other party, even saying that with an arrogant contempt for the enemy, gave them precious time.
At this moment, there was a cry in the air, and Da Fei waved his wings and circled around the city. Li Jianshan's heart trembled excitedly, and he waited for Da Fei to land with a little nervousness. But the strange thing is that Big Fly circled around and flew directly into the distance.
Li Jianshan was wondering, when he saw a guard riding a horse and shouting excitedly, "My lord, Duan Shuai has arrived~ They just entered the East City Gate from behind." ”
Li Jianshan trembled, and waved his right fist fiercely, "Quick, withdraw all the stone carts in the city gate cave to meet the Sky Patrol Army." ”
In the capital city, nearly 30,000 troops crossed the city and rolled from east to west. The people in the city shed tears in excited cheers.
Duan Lang waved his hand, with a hint of coldness in his eyes. When passing by the city defense camp, Duan Lang shouted loudly.
"Zhou Hu, take your troops into the camp and quickly put on heavy armor. Zhiliang, take your unit to take over the chariot, there must be no mistake. ”
"Order!"
Zhou Hu and Cui Zhiliang agreed, and quickly led their men and horses to rush towards the camp. Zhou Hu's men and horses themselves were heavily armored battalions, and Cui Zhiliang's baggage convoy was also changed to a chariot battalion. The two teams returned to the camp and quickly recovered their equipment, with a heavy armor battalion and a chariot battalion, which made Duan Lang more confident.
Inside the West City Gate, Li Jianshan saw Duan Lang rushing to the city excitedly, "Brother, you are here." How about it, do you want to take a break? ”
Duan Lang jumped off the war horse, Fang Yan followed, looking at the tired Li Jianshan, Duan Lang hugged his fists, "Brother Li, it's hard work." ”
"The army outside the city is lined up, if you don't come again, Lao Tzu will really scold the street." Li Jianshan suddenly had a sense of relaxation.
Duan Lang looked up at Zhou Guangji and Han Feng at the head of the city, clasped his fists and said, "Uncle Zhou, Seventh Uncle, please let your second elder show me the enemy's array, and wait for me to kill the Xiyue barbarians." Come on, beat the drums of war! ”
Tong Tong Tong ~ A war drum sounded. The stone carts piled up in the city gate cave have all been pulled out, and the heavy city gate is slowly opened.
Duan Lang didn't rush out of the city, but looked at Fang Yan and said.
"Fang Yan, go to the city and cheer for my Sky Survey Army."
Fang Yan hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Lang, don't be careless, take care." ”
Watching Fang Yan dismount and leave, Duan Lang pointed his iron spear at this point, "Order all battalions to go out with this commander!" ”
Opposite the city, Xiao Zhanfeng looked at the slowly opening gate of Lidu City in surprise. The cheers that came from the city just now made him feel a little bad. But Xiao Zhanfeng didn't care, even if Kyoto sent rescuers, he knew that they were just temporary recruits. Xiao Zhanfeng knew very well that the elite of Great Xia had already gone to the direction of Xining. But he didn't know that Lidu City itself had an elite army, and this elite army had undergone the test of war and blood, and transformed into a very terrifying army of death. Even Mo Kun, who is as famous as Han Pingzi, has to retreat when he encounters Duan Lang.
Duan Lang carried the Xuantie gun and walked out of the city gate unhurriedly. Behind him, Zhou Long followed closely with the forward battalion. Immediately afterwards, there were the left and right cavalry camps of Huang Zhi and Wang Fuzhong.
Looking at the neat and orderly cavalry battalion forming on the opposite side, Xiao Zhanfeng couldn't help but show a surprised look. He was a cavalryman himself, and knew everything about war horses and riders. From the neat ranking of the opponent's horses and the forward leaning of the riders like wolves, it can be seen that this cavalry is by no means a rabble.
That's not all, after the cavalry left the city and lined up, immediately after, thousands of heavily armored horsemen walked out of the city gate. The generals behind Xiao Zhanfeng couldn't help but change their faces when they saw the heavy armored cavalry. But what really shocked Xiao Zhanfeng was the appearance of Cui Zhiliang's 300 chariot battalion.
"General~ Could it be that they are~ the main force of Great Xia?" One of the generals asked in shock.
Xiao Zhanfeng's eyes widened, looking at the handsome flag of 'Duan' held high behind Duan Lang, and the strange banner of the 'Sky Survey Army'. Xiao Zhanfeng thought about it, and he didn't know when the Sky Survey Army appeared in Great Xia.
It's no wonder that before the war, the soldiers and horses in Lidu City were very secretive, and they didn't even know about Fang Jiye. And after crossing the desert, the reputation of the Sky Survey Army rose, but there were no spies from Xiyue over there, and the army of Nanping in Wuliang City was killed by Duan Lang, and such a scandal was not reported to Xiyue at all.
Surprised to surprised, Xiao Zhanfeng is not afraid after all, after all, there are twice as many people as the other party. But what made him regret it was that he knew that the other party really had soldiers and horses coming, and he shouldn't have waited for a day in vain at all. What's even more depressing is that Xiao Zhanfeng temporarily converted a large number of men and horses into an infantry battalion. If you order to hurry back to the camp and ride at this time, I am afraid that the other party will come to kill with a shock, and the consequences will be unimaginable. In desperation, Xiao Zhanfeng could only order the infantry battalion to set up the formation, and the crossbowmen were responsible for pressing the formation.
Xiao Zhanfeng hit his horse and walked forward for about 100 meters, and asked in a loud voice, "Xiao Zhanfeng, the general of the West Vietnam Striker, who is coming, quickly sign up and send him to death." ”
Duan Lang pointed his spear horizontally, "Commander of the Sky Survey Army in the Lower Capital City, Duan Lang!" Duan Lang did not report the official canonization, but reported his self-proclaimed title.
Xiao Zhanfeng's head is big, and the capital city patrols the sky? Also the boss, when did Daxia set up a battalion of soldiers and horses?
Without waiting for Xiao Zhanfeng to speak, Duan Lang followed the Xuantie spear, "Xiyue barbarians, dare to offend my Great Xia Jiangshan, this commander will definitely kill none of you." The heavy armored battalion chariot battalion obeys the order, kill me! ”
Duan Lang gave an order, and Zhou Hu rushed over with a roar with the heavy armor battalion armed to the teeth. Immediately afterwards, Cui Zhiliang's chariot battalion also howled and rushed towards the opponent's infantry formation. There were four people on the chariot, one rider, two shield guards, and the remaining one guard, who was armed with a spear and was responsible for killing. Moreover, the war horses are all covered with armor, which is simply the nemesis of the infantry battle array.
Xiao Zhanfeng saw it and hurriedly shouted, "Forward cavalry battalion, stop them for me." ”
Seeing the opponent's cavalry battalion fighting, Duan Lang clamped his crotch and got off his horse, "Brothers, rush to kill with this commander, you must not let the Xiyue barbarians escape so easily." ”
Xiao Zhanfeng gritted his teeth and raised the spear in his hand, "Run?" It is not certain who will kill whom, this little force is not enough to be arrogant in front of this general. Sons and daughters~ Kill me! ”
Above the city, Li Jianshan, Zhou Guangji and others were shocked to watch. Although they had seen the brutal training of this large army, in the face of more than twice as many enemy soldiers, no one dared to guarantee that the soldiers and horses of Lidu City would be able to withstand it.
Fang Yan snatched the drumstick from one of the guards and shouted, "Come on, cheer for our brothers in the capital city!" ”
A neat and uplifting drum beat sounded in the city, and Duan Lang's eyes were indifferent, staring at Xiao Zhanfeng like a grim reaper. The war horses of the two sides were getting closer and closer, and Duan Lang knew that this was a real hard battle for their Sky Survey Army to face the enemy, and they had to kill the opponent's main general as soon as possible to boost the morale of the army.
Xiao Zhanfeng had the same idea, his target was Duan Lang. As a veteran of Xiyue who has been famous for a long time, Xiao Zhanfeng knows what kind of momentum he will bring to the army if he kills the opponent's main general.
Thirty meters ~ ten meters ~ ! Duan Lang twisted the body of the gun and stabbed forward suddenly. Xiao Zhanfeng was experienced, and his body suddenly avoided the tip of the spear on one side, but the spear in his hand was aimed at the war horse under Duan Lang's crotch.
Duan Lang was startled, it was too late to pull back, Duan Lang simply shook the body of the gun and directly smashed Xiao Zhanfeng's head with the heavy barrel of the gun.
Burst~! Boom~! Hole tom~! Xiao Zhanfeng's spear stabbed the war horse, and Duan Lang's spear also hit Xiao Zhanfeng's head. Duan Lang rolled and fell off the horse, but Xiao Zhanfeng was smashed by Duan Lang's Xuantie gun, and his helmet flew up, and his eyes were full of gold stars.
