Chapter 205: There Are Ghosts
Chapter 205: (There Are Ghosts)
"General, there is an enemy army in the north of the city, and it has already entered the city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" A battalion captain covered in blood rode to the west of the city and shouted loudly to Liang Xi, who was commanding the army to defend the city.
"What?" Liang Xi was shocked when he heard this, there was no drawbridge in the north of the city, and the width of the moat was too wide, he didn't know how these people entered the city, but now the situation is clear, the situation is changing too quickly: "Order, mobilize 10,000 soldiers to block the enemy troops in the north of the city, those who have entered the city, block me in place, and I will come to support immediately." ”
"No..."
"Protect the general... Ahh
Liang Xi didn't dare to stand by the city wall now, he could shoot an arrow in the throat in the dark night, this arrow technique was naturally very good, if there was no general to block it, I am afraid that he would be the one who died now, so he turned around and ordered: "Block it for me no matter what, you must not lose the city gate." ”
"No..."The lieutenant general clenched his fists in response, and then went forward to direct the archers to fire back with arrows, but because it was too dark, they could only release the arrows blindly.
Li Yanqing, who was commanding the siege outside the west of the city, looked at the soldiers who were shot by bows and arrows and died, and couldn't help frowning, although he himself knew the art of war, but he was still very optimistic about attacking at night, after all, the sight was too poor, and both sides would pay a heavy price for it, and the losses of the besieging side were estimated to be greater than those of the defending side.
"Report..."A knight came to Li Yanqing on a fast horse, hugged his fists and said: "Junhou, General Cao has invaded the north of the city, the prince has an order, ordering you to burn the gate in the west of the city, and the Shenwu cannon will fire at the west of the city, please prepare for the prince." ”
"Go back and tell the prince, I will act immediately." Li Yanqing replied in a deep voice.
"No—" The knight turned his horse's head and disappeared into the night.
Li Yanqing turned his head and ordered: "Throw all the oil cans over, tell General Song, and release the rockets." ”
"No," one of the soldiers nodded, and headed towards the front of the formation.
In fact, how to let Li Yanqing attack Liaocheng alone, although it can be captured, but it will definitely take a lot of time, Liaocheng is purely a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is surrounded by Liaohe, as long as the west gate is guarded, the enemy will be blocked out, and the soldiers in the city can kill the opponent by surprise when the reinforcements arrive.
And Shangguan Yin Feng had already seen this clearly, so he prepared a large number of oil cans, threw them over and burned the city gates, and if necessary, he could also burn the drawbridge to completely trap the defenders in the city, and Shangguan Yin Feng was also ready to encircle the point to send reinforcements, which was the first course he learned in the military academy.
Although Shangguan Yin Feng brought a lot of this thing with the oil tank, but after several battles, there was not much left, and in order to conquer the city in the future, he could only save a little now, after all, the main production area of this thing was in Nanyang.
"Throw it over..."
More than a dozen oil canisters were thrown over, and the oil canisters exploded violently after the flat was broken, and then began to ignite a raging fire, so that the west city gate was engulfed in fire in an instant, and all the people guarding the city gate were affected, with many dead and wounded, and the rockets falling from the sky ignited the city tower, which was close to the houses and military camps on the edge of the city, and most of the west of the city began to ignite the fire, making the people in the city begin to flee in all directions, panicked.
"Boom... Boom... "The dull sound of the cannon sounded, and the Shenwu cannon finally opened again after cooling down, this time the target was the city wall west of the city, which happened to be because it was dark night, and the person operating the Shenwu cannon hit the right one, blowing up the iron chain connecting the suspension bridge on the city tower, so that the suspension bridge was suddenly put down.
And after this burst of shelling, there were very few surviving Qi troops on the city tower, some of them were killed and wounded, and most of them were too frightened to climb the city tower, so they didn't even know that the suspension bridge chain was blown up, until the city gate was completely burned down, and they could see clearly the Cheng Dynasty soldiers who were rushing towards them.
Li Yanqing was still thinking about how to put down the drawbridge, but this time the artillery was hitting right, but it helped him a lot, and when he saw the drawbridge down, he ordered the whole army to attack and rushed towards the west city gate.
Seeing the Cheng Dynasty soldiers rushing towards themselves, some of those Qi troops ran straight towards the inner city, and most of them began to charge towards the Cheng Dynasty soldiers who rushed to kill under the command of the deputy general, and the two sides broke out in a fierce hand-to-hand battle in an instant.
"Kill..."
Cao Zhen, who entered from the north of the city, led the cavalry to rush around in the city, as if no man's land, because most of the defenders of Liaocheng were in the west of the city, so that Cao Zhen seemed to be riding a horse and running in the city, and only encountered a small force of Qi troops to resist.
Shangguan Yin Feng, under the protection of the Jinyi guard, slowly walked into the north of the city, and then commanded a part of the people to climb the city wall from the broken staircase and run towards the west of the city.
"Lord Wang, the enemy reinforcements are fighting with our army in front, and there are many of them, please show it to the prince." Huang Wei clenched his fists and said to Shangguan Yin Feng.
Shangguan Yin Feng raised the night gun in his hand, and then said, "Order the foot soldiers to form a formation, and we will kill them." ”
"No..."
"Shield array...," Huang Wei shouted at the soldiers behind him.
"Ha..." After the roar in unison, the soldiers with large shields behind them formed a shield formation in front, raised their spears, and walked towards the front little by little.
Not far away, a fierce shouting broke out, Shangguan Yin Feng couldn't help but get on his horse, stretched out his head to look, it turned out that the cavalry under Cao Zhen was engaged in a fierce battle with Liang Xi, who had come to reinforce him. And looking inside from the outside, the cavalry troops were at a disadvantage, surrounded by Liang Xi's troops.
"Order the musketeers to attack...," Shangguan Yin Feng said in a deep voice.
"No..." Huang Wei responded to the promise and went to the rear and called Huang Botao, who commanded three hundred musketeers to line up behind the big shield.
"Shoot..."Huang Botao pointed at his long sword, and the sound of popping beans rang out, and the Qi troops standing at the front fell to the ground one after another, some died directly, and some groaned in pain on the ground.
"Bang bang... The sound of popping beans sounded again, and the second saturation attack hit those Qi troops who couldn't find the north, and the cavalry who were surrounded inside took advantage of the situation to kill out of the encirclement and came towards the shield array, and the shield array also opened from it, making way for those cavalry, and the shield array closed again, followed by the sound of the third bean burst, and dozens of Qi troops fell to the ground.
"There are ghosts..."I don't know which one shouted heartlessly, which made the Qi army on the opposite side start to scramble to flee after hearing the words, and once again there was an embarrassing scene of the Han army at that time.
Those Qi troops frantically fled towards the rear, making Liang Xi, who was commanding in the middle of the military formation, confused, only to hear his soldiers start shouting that there were ghosts.
This is not a trivial matter, these Qi troops are attacked by Shenwu cannons and arquebuses for the first time, before I only heard that Shangguan Yin Feng can do demon magic, and there is a group of people who can do demon arts, holding a black strange long stick in their hands, people have not yet approached and were killed in place, which is why those Qi troops fled wildly.
Seeing that the soldiers had lost the will to fight, Liang Xi ordered the supervising team to kill nearly 100 soldiers to stop these soldiers who wanted to escape, and had no choice but to withdraw towards the city with the soldiers, wanting to rely on the terrain in the city to fight a fierce street battle with Shangguan Yin Feng.
But he forgot one thing, Shangguan Yin Feng's best skills are hand-to-hand white-knuckle combat and street fighting.
