Chapter 466 Small Force
The Yan army attacked strongly, causing a miserable scene, Han Wushu watched it, hiding behind the wall battlement, his breathing gradually became rapid, his face gradually became hot, and the sweat all over his body continued to roll to the ground. οΌ .οΌ
At present, the situation is too critical, as Zhao Chongguo's deputy general, he faced the well-prepared attack of the Yan army, but under the suppression of the opponent's arrow rain, he was helpless, and he could only see the Yan army shouting outside, and it was difficult to do anything.
Half an hour passed, the corpses in the corridor of the city wall were like mountains, the blood flowed like a river, and under the city wall, the shouts of killing shook the sky, and the Yan army still showed no signs of stopping the attack.
At this moment, Han Invincible has become no longer invincible, and the Liang army galloping across the battlefield has also become trembling, even if they forcibly form a defense and carry out a counterattack, the Yan army that formed a phalanx under the city wall is still as immobile as a mountain, and there is no sign of evacuating at all.
At this time, the Liang army moved beside Han Wushu and said in a low voice: "General, there have been many Yan troops in a short period of time, and it seems that they have surrounded Guo Changcheng and besieged them from all directions. β
After speaking, without waiting for Han Wushu to think about making a choice, Zhao Chongguo had already led the reinforcements to hurriedly run up the city wall, and saw Han Wushu cowering at the head of the city, not commanding and dispatching the soldiers who defended the city to actively form a defense, but he was greedy for life and afraid of death to protect his life.
In the corridor of the city wall, the corpses were strewn around, as if ants had been trampled to death in his eyes, without a little wave, and he couldn't help shouting: "Han Wudi, as a general defending the city, you should actively prepare for war and play an exemplary role for the soldiers of the three armies. β
Waving the war knife in his hand to block the arrows flying in the air, Zhao Chongguo angrily rushed at Han Wushu and shouted.
When he led the army to the West Gate, he saw the Yan Army's moves, the other party thundered loudly, the rain was small, and the momentum was violent, and he was not ready to break the West Gate at all.
Thinking of Lin Feng's combat style, and noticed that there was also a shouting of killing from the south gate, and the sky was full of fire, Zhao Chongguo realized that the Yan army was attacking the west gate, but in fact, it was attacking the east and the west, and the tiger was moving away from the mountain.
When he realized that he might have fallen into the way of Yan Jun. The imperial decree ordered the general of Ximen to closely monitor the movements of the Yan army, and at the same time, he led the army to the south gate in person, and the situation on the south gate was far beyond his expectations.
The Yan army's arrow feathers are too dense, any head will be shot, either dead or wounded, under the city gate, you can't see where the fire started, but the fire has spread to the city wall, and the Liang soldiers who are whirring and burning are difficult to approach.
Zhao Chongguo came to the city wall, saw the situation on the city wall, and realized that the Yan army's offensive was too fierce, and the Liang army was difficult to stop, but seeing Han Wuving's inaction, he immediately forgot the battlefield situation and angrily rebuked Han Wuving.
Hearing this, Han Wushu raised his head suddenly, and looked at Zhao Chongguo in a panic, but he didn't expect the other party to come to the south gate, at this moment, Zhao Chongguo's arrival will mean that the south gate has become the main battlefield of the Yan army and the Liang army.
couldn't help but explain aggrievedly: "General, the Yan army's offensive is too fierce, we can't stop it at all, not to mention that the other party is quickly burning the gate, if there is no accident, it will definitely not last long." β
Zhao Chongguo hid behind the low wall, looked at the city, and sure enough, the flames strung up under the south gate were like fire dragons constantly pounced, and turned into a fire phoenix in the air, disappearing into the air.
Looking at the Yan army besieging on the ground, Zhao Chongguo's face instantly condensed, judging from the scale of the previous battles, the number of Yan troops was as much as forty or fifty thousand, however, no matter how powerful the Yan army at the West Gate was and how strong the offensive of the defenders at the South Gate was, the total number of Yan troops still did not exceed forty thousand, or even twenty thousand.
Zhao Chongguo knew that although outside Guochang City, the wind and waves were calm, and the Yan Army was like a ghost in the night, and when the south gate of Guochang City was broken, it would definitely rush out directly like a hornet, enter Guo Changcheng, and annihilate the Liang army's troops.
At present, what the Liang army has to do is not to block the Yan army, let alone kill many enemies, but to directly block the Yan army outside the city, in short, it is to find ways to block the south gate, and even block the south gate, even if the south gate is burned, it is difficult for the Yan army to break in.
Without a moment's hesitation, Zhao Chongguo immediately ordered: "Han Wudi, you immediately stop the army to prevent the Yan army from attacking the city, and General Ben will take people to block the south gate to prevent the Yan army from rushing in."
Without further ado, if you dare to delay, you will be dealt with directly by military law. β
"Yes! Rest assured, general! Han Wushu said without delay, with the general as his backing, what else was he afraid of.
It's a pity that the fire at the south gate burned much faster than imagined, and there was the erosion of fire oil, and the fire spread, bang, and the wooden door standing in the fire seemed to be a giant with no physical strength, and after a loud noise, it collapsed violently.
The fire seemed to be attracted, and it skewered into the city gate, Zhao Chongguo just led the Liang army to drive down, and it was too late to fill the door hole with a boulder, the city gate hit, and the fire skewered into the door hole, and suddenly, the fire spread to the Liang army close to the city gate.
With a few screams, Liang Jun threw himself out of the sea of fire, slapping the flames on his body in panic.
Looking at it, Zhao Chongguo's face suddenly turned pale, and he turned around and hurriedly shouted to Liang Jun: "Hurry up, go and bring the stones, and fill the door hole immediately." β
Falling sound, the ground suddenly sounded the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, crazy shouting, closer and closer, more and more urgent, Zhao Chongguo suddenly realized that the problem was serious, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the city gate, there was a bad premonition in his heart, the intuition of the Yan army, who had not yet appeared, might be approaching quickly.
When Zhao Chongguo rushed to the city wall, he looked around, only to see that under the moonlight, the two support armies of the Yan army, set off quickly, in the hazy moonlight, quickly moving forward, and quickly rushed to the direction of Guo Changcheng, less than three or four miles away from each other, tens of thousands of cavalry, in an instant, will arrive under Guo Changcheng.
Suddenly, Zhao Chongguo was shocked, afraid of something, he was going to block the doorway, just to prevent the Yan army from attacking, but it was too late to act, the Yan army rushed over, and the speed of change in the situation was simply beyond his expectations.
Hurriedly said: "The whole army is ready to fight, the archers are ready, Han is invincible, and quickly lead people to block the doorway." β
At this moment, Zhao Chongguo categorically did not dare to hand over the command of the South Gate to Han Wuving, if he couldn't stop the cavalry of the Yan Army, the matter would be a big deal.
Han Wushu did not hesitate, and hurriedly led his troops to rush under the city wall, preparing to go all out to block the doorway.
The moon and stars are scarce, the cool breeze is blowing, and the sound of horses' hooves is like thunder, completely breaking the silence of the night!
After the news of the Yan army's attack came, the Liang army in Guochang City looked panicked and became panicked, although there were 100,000 troops in the city, but the south gate had been broken, and the west gate of the Yan army was feintting.
Therefore, there were more than 70,000 troops left in the city, except for the 10,000 defenders at the east gate, and the rest of the troops all rushed from the barracks to the south gate, striving to protect the south gate and block the Yan cavalry.
When Zhao Chongguo and Han Wushu focused their attention on the South Gate, the West Gate, and even the East Gate, Lin Feng had already led the five hundred Yan Army back to the North Gate.
In Zhao Chongguo's impression, it is impossible for the Yan army to go to the north gate, and the key is that even if the north gate is broken, a small number of Yan troops break into Guochang City, and they are still sheep in the tiger's mouth.
On the wall of the north gate, when the Liang army learned that the Yan army was coming, the city head was instantly filled with a tense atmosphere, and then learned that the main force of the Yan army was placed at the west gate and the south gate, and even the east gate, which was very close, there was no trace of the Yan army, and the soldiers at the north gate immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It's a pity that the Liang army on the north gate doesn't seem to know the strategy of hiding from the sky and crossing the sea, and he doesn't know the common saying of the three watch ghosts and the five watch thieves.
Lin Feng led five hundred blade warriors, covered by grass and branches, like a moving shrub in the jungle, in the hazy night, cheered up twelve points of spirit, quietly approached the north gate, and soon, lurked to the north gate.
"Shhhh
The Blade Warriors skillfully whistled, a kind of whistle that only a few Blade Warriors understood its meaning, and took advantage of the gap between the changing of the guard of the Liang army on the north gate to launch an offensive without hesitation.
With the flying claws, iron claws, ropes, rope ladders prepared in advance, they began to march towards the city wall, these people, as early as the training of Cangyan Mountain, have already mastered a variety of climbing skills, flying eaves and walking on the wall may not be realistic, but in the case of sufficient equipment, in a short period of time to rush to the top of the city six or seven meters high, but there is no problem.
What's more, the physical strength of the blade warrior far exceeds that of ordinary soldiers, and the endurance and willpower are even more powerful and terrifying.
At this time, Lin Feng led the blade warriors, along the rope and rope ladder, climbing on the wall of the north gate, carrying a repeating crossbow on his back, hanging a horse chopping knife on his waist, and biting a half-meter-long short spear in his mouth, his movements were sensitive, and he walked against the city wall like a gecko, and quietly went up to the north gate.
"Flutter, flutterβ"
When Lin Feng led the soldiers to climb to the head of the city, he either threw the short gun in his hand directly, or quickly crossed the city, and the short gun quickly pierced into the neck of the Liang army.
At the same time, the Liang army also noticed that the Yan army suddenly broke into the north gate city wall, exclaimed, beat the drum, and passed it to all sides, and soon the Liang army in Guochang City knew that the Yan army had broken into the north gate.
At this time, the blade warriors led by Lin Feng, these people, holding a crossbow in their left hand and a knife in their right hand, seemed to have entered a no-man's land, the arrow feathers and the swords flew together, and the Liang army was either shot by sharp arrows, or slashed horizontally by long knives, and the Yan army rushed in, facing the Liang army that came in a panic, like a god temporary.
Lin Feng's expression was calm, his eyes glanced around, he glanced at the corpses of Liang Jun on the ground, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, at this moment, Liang Jun's attention was on the West Gate, more at the South Gate, and he didn't know what kind of face Zhao Chongguo would show when he learned that the Yan Army had entered Guo Changcheng.
