Chapter 50 Soldiers in Nie County
Three hours ago, he received a report of the border battle, and Lu Bu personally led two thousand cavalry to the south, and the troops were directed at Niexian.
He was as anxious as if he had been thrown on the edge of a cliff, with a crumbling boulder hanging above his head, and a dark and terrifying abyss beneath him, from which he would fall into a place of no return.
His eyes fell on the calm Wang Qi, and he said hurriedly: "Brother Wang, you have thought of a way, Lu Bu's army will arrive in an instant." ”
Wang Qi squinted at the county order, and said calmly: "What are you panicking about, I don't expect him Lu Bu to do anything to me." ”
Yes, he won't do anything to you, but what will he do to me, if it weren't for your son who ruined his soldiers, how could this happen, the county commander cursed in his heart.
Wang Qi saw that the county order was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and couldn't help but be upset for a while: "I have asked the family for help, I believe they will not sit idly by, as long as you hold on for a day, reinforcements will definitely come." ”
"Hold on? How to hold on, with only these 800 soldiers? ”
In the face of the chatter of the county order, Wang Qi finally couldn't bear it anymore, and swept the tea set on the table to the ground: "It's your business to defend the city, as for how to defend it, you still need to ask me?" ”
The county magistrate wanted to scold, but when he thought of Wang Qi's identity, he held back the words back into his stomach, and said with a smile on his face: "The prince is angry, I'm here.... I'm also in a hurry, and I don't know when Taishou will send troops. ”
In the face of the wolf-like state army, even the foreign tribes covered their edges and temporarily rested the sword soldiers, not to mention that he had a county order.
"What's the hurry, Lu Bu attacked the prefecture and county without authorization, and his general Duliao couldn't do it for long." Wang Ke's eyes narrowed into a slit, and there was a coldness in his voice.
Although today's Han is gradually highlighting the chaos, in this world is still surnamed Liu, as long as Lu Bu dares to attack other states and counties, it is a rebellion, and he is a traitor.
The attitude of the Han towards traitors has always been to completely exterminate and encircle and suppress, and will not tolerate it, and Zhang Jiao and Zhang Bao are a lesson from the past.
"Hope is as the prince said......"
The county order wanted to ask again, and suddenly Sima who was guarding the city came to report, saying that Lu Bu's army had been killed in Nie County, and the siege had begun at this time.
The black clouds pressed the city, the murderous spirit was monstrous, the soldiers and horses under the city of Nie County gathered, the smoke and dust rose suddenly, and the army of 20,000 people under the leadership of Zhang Liao and others surrounded the city of Nie County.
"Beat the drums, siege!" There was no surrender, no persuasion, Lu Bu loudly ordered the drums to beat the war drums of the attack.
Hearing the sound of the Chinese army drums, the men and horses from all directions shouted at the same time, and the soldiers carried the ladders and pushed the siege vehicles, and under the cover of the sword and shield soldiers, they killed towards Niexian.
"General Lu, please rest the sword soldiers!" Suddenly, the voice of the county magistrate of Nexian County came from the head of the city.
As soon as Lu Bu raised his hand, the war drums of the Chinese army stopped abruptly, and the advancing Bingzhou army stopped one after another, quietly waiting for Lu Bu's next order.
Seeing that the Bingzhou army had stopped attacking the city, the county commander of Niexian County let out a long breath, he poked his head out of the battlement, and shouted down: "Dare to ask where General Lu is?" ”
"If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have a fart, let it go."
The county commander wiped the sweat from his forehead and shouted: "I have long heard that General Feifei is brave, and it is an honor to see him today, but the general is a general of Duliao, holding the festival of Heshuo, why did he attack other states and counties privately, and regret the contribution of Hushuo Fang to fight the chaos?" ”
Lu Bu didn't bother to talk nonsense with him: "Why did I attack Nixian, how could you not know?" Acquaintances quickly open the city and surrender, otherwise you will be divided into corpses on the day the city is broken. ”
"General, forgive me for being difficult to obey!" The county commander swallowed his saliva, and when he saw Wang Ke, who had already climbed the city tower, he immediately changed his tone when he wanted to agree.
"And you're still talking? Besiege! ”
The war drums of the Chinese army rose again, and the silent Bingzhou army suddenly let out a monstrous sound of Han killing, and approached Nexian County with neat steps.
The county commander poked his head out of the battlement, and the frightened moment entered his eyes, and the outside of the city of Niexian County was already covered by the black-pressed Bingzhou army, and the Bingzhou army was lined up in a purged phalanx, and the pace was neatly advancing.
The county commander only felt that apart from the footsteps of the state army and the sonorous sound of armor, there was no other sound in his ears.
These two voices converge into a monotonous and stubborn sound, which oppresses human courage to the point of being extremely small.
The advancing Bingzhou army suddenly stopped, silent as a black reef, and the metal jungle of steel knives and spears reflected a sharp cold light, which made the defenders of Nexian County shudder.
"Shoot the arrows..."
With the crisp sound of the bowstring, dense arrows like a torrential rain screamed out of the string, converging into a huge cloud of arrows in the air, accompanied by the breathtaking sound of breaking the air towards the defenders of Niexian.
The sound of "poof" and "poof" came and went, and the sharp arrows pierced the leather armor, submerging into the fragile bodies of the defenders of Niexian, and the blood burst out in an instant, forming a puff of blood mist on the head of the city.
After a few rounds of arrow rain, more than half of the defenders at the head of the city had suffered casualties.
"Siege!" In the midst of the chaos, Zhang Liao abandoned his horse and walked on foot, rushing across the moat with a Pu knife in his hand, and the defenders of Nie County saw that Zhang Liao was menacing, and immediately bent their bows and arrows, and fired ten thousand arrows at once.
In the face of such a dense arrowhead, Zhang Liao was not afraid at all, and a simple knife danced impenetrably, making it difficult for gods and ghosts to enter his body.
"Crossbowmen press on." Zhang Liao saw that the defenders of Nie County had withdrawn and loaded their arrows, and immediately shouted an order.
The crossbowmen hidden behind the sword and shield soldiers heard the order and aimed their crossbows at the head of the city, and the defenders who had finished loading their arrows had just poked out of the battlements when they were shot beyond recognition by a rain of arrows.
The offensive on the city was stalled, and the state army took the opportunity to erect the cloud ladder on the city wall.
Zhang Liao took the lead, holding a simple knife and rushing up the ladder, that is, a few seconds of effort, Zhang Liao, who climbed to the top of the ladder, jumped and took the lead in climbing the city wall: "Yanmen Zhang Liao is here." ”
Zhang Liao jumped off the battlement, swept through thousands of troops with a slash of the Pu knife in his hand, and several defenders were cut in two by him with a knife.
Seeing that their generals were so brave, their morale soared instantly, and they all moved forward bravely, not avoiding arrows, smashing doors, climbing walls, and attacking like a tide.
Zhang Liao single-handedly entered the enemy camp, the sword in his hand opened and closed, chopping the waves, the momentum sank, and where he passed, he immediately split a bloody storm.
Later, when the Bingzhou troops who landed in the city saw it, they jumped off the battlements one after another, and chased and killed the defenders on the head of the city with the momentum of a tiger descending the mountain.
On one side is the battle-hardened warriors, and on the other hand, the county defenders who have been in battle for a long time, and the gap between the two can be described as vastly different.
In less than half a cup of tea, the defenders of Niexian County were killed in horror and retreated.
The war drums outside the city were beaten more and more fiercely, and the excited Bingzhou army was urged by the drums to slash steel knives into the enemy's body again and again, until the defenders surrendered.
