Chapter 732: Choice 2
If you want to say anything more deterrent and more deceitful than lining up to shoot, it is undoubtedly a cannon that fires scattered shells at the same time.
These enemies, who seemed to be particularly brave and fierce, desperately braved the rain of bullets to rush back and forth in front of the Huaidong Army, but they were stabbed and pushed back by multiple formations of bayonets and spears;
After being repeatedly bombarded by the scattered bullets and solid iron balls of the artillery, one after another fragmented and inhuman-shaped flesh storms were repeatedly bombarded, and after plowing out the flesh and blood ravines, the remaining enemy formations in the square that were densely confronted finally collapsed on the spot.
Almost desperately, they fought towards the positions of the feudal soldiers on both wings, whose combat effectiveness was weaker and more chaotic, and struggled to break through, and suddenly in the roars and screams, they once again set off a bloody storm.
And at this time, my own formation did not take advantage of the victory to pursue or raise the bayonet tail to pursue, although the enemy who shot arrows at the wall had been completely suppressed and killed and wounded by continuous volleys.
Because, the door behind them was also opened from the inside out, and more armored soldiers were rushed out in a hurry, and there were even groups of cavalry, but it was too late, and there was no point.
The relatively narrow city gate and the limited depth in front of the gate make these back-up counteroffensive and hedging efforts, under the dense arc-shaped three-bread sandwich, can only become a helpless refueling tactic with their backs to the city wall.
And the courage to fight to the death with the support of the high wall, in the face of the metal projectiles with powerful kinetic energy penetrating the armor and body, it is almost pointless to struggle to resist, and there is no power to save their fate of being suppressed and slaughtered.
They didn't even have a chance to rush in front of the bayonet wall and fight hand-to-hand for a moment.
After another half an hour, all that remained in the square was a river of blood and a mountain of corpses at the scene of the massacre. The fallen corpse almost made it impossible for people to get off their feet, and the position against the gate was even more blocked by the corpse with a hideous and distorted expression, and the entire ground gap in the square was stained red by the flowing blood.
Moreover, because of the killing of the red eye, not a single captive and alive mouth was left.
Then, amid the earth-shattering cheers of the friendly forces on the left, the high wall that stood in front of us, along with the panicked shouts of the remaining enemies above, was violently toppled down and collapsed to the ground, revealing several relatively wide gaps.
The sounds and movements of the battle inside have also become much more desolate. At this time, I was not in a hurry, and said to Xue Hui, who reported the casualty figures.
"Stabilize your position and let Luo Fan's men and horses go to the ...... first"
Then, after a brief communication, the soldiers of the Luo clan from both wings roared loudly, holding swords, guns, shields, and rushed into these gaps like a tide.
After a while, the location and passage of the main entrance were also cleared, and the corpses of the whole car were pushed into the square and piled up. The remnants of the wall were also planted with wind and thunder flags.
At this time, I entered with the troops. I saw that the small square inside was full of wreaks, full of traces of fierce battles and blood stains all over the ground.
And on the hundreds of wide steps leading to the city lord's hall, the soldiers of the Luo clan who were attacking from the back were defeating the enemies who were hiding between the pavilions and corridors.
From time to time, heavy corpses and screaming wounded people rolled down the slope of the steps, trampled over countless times, or pushed and fell by the crowd fighting on both sides of the steps
And as the Huaidong soldiers joined the rear column, the enemy's rout became more and more uncontrollable, and the men and horses who were killed in the first place rushed to the eaves of the city lord's hall.
At this time, the high-beam arch building called the city lord's hall suddenly collapsed with a bang, and in the dust, a group of gray-headed and dirty-faced people suddenly rushed out, but it was difficult to hide the blood-stained people, and there were several figures that looked bad.
Facing the enemy soldiers who chased them out of the lobby or rushed forward to intercept them, they rushed left and right from the towering steps, almost three steps at a time, running and jumping in one step.
And the surrounding enemies or the soldiers of the Luo clan who were especially entangled, also seemed to be stimulated or encouraged, and they fought more and more fiercely.
It's just that the last short escape of these people is a bit hasty and ugly, and even has a taste of recklessness. As a result, many flaws and loopholes were exposed behind them, and at least dozens of people were shot down by the arrows that came after them because of the lack of cover and cover, or tripped by the pursuing enemy, and the casualties of slashing and slashing.
In the end, the Luo clan who was accepted into the vanguard team, plus the family generals and guards, there were less than two or three hundred people left.
Because of this, I also saw Luo Zhanji, the feudal lord who was guarded by them in the center, but the place where his head was hastily bandaged was still bleeding, and he could barely say a few words of thanks, so he could only be carried down to rest.
This result made me a little speechless and sighing.
Fortunately, near the city lord's mansion in the city, there are still thousands of Anton's guards. Why didn't it come in handy at all, and it was lost so easily
Later, in the wailing and crying of the relatives at home and abroad, and the incoherent and hurried complaints, I vaguely knew from the feedback of these parties that it was actually because the feudal lord was hesitant to break through or wait for help.
During this period, he even wanted to divide his troops and rushed to the inner house to snatch the Xue girl out as a hostage in a sense.
But I didn't expect that these enemies were not just from the Xue clan. Or that they were not at all about the casualties of the Huxue clan, and the lives and deaths of most of the people present at the banquet. Almost surrounded by strong crossbows from the outside, they shot and cleared the field together.
And the more and more enemies gathered, these loyal and brave guards who fought and protected the left and right, paid a very heavy price; Together with the garrison army that was trying to rush over and converge, the enemy, who had the advantage of geographical advantage and ambush, divided and destroyed the 7788 by encircling the point and sending reinforcements.
In the end, only two severely weakened teams were able to break through the siege and reach the feudal lord's side. Then he took up a defensive position in the corner of the building behind the lobby, and under the siege of the enemy, he managed to hold on until the situation in the city was reversed, and the reinforcements I brought arrived.
At this time, the feudal lord Luo Zhanji made up his mind to break through in reverse, and couldn't wait to join with foreign aid.
As a result, in the process, most of the remaining manpower and some family members were lost, and the lightly injured and the old and weak who couldn't run were also left in place to stick to the name of abandoning and waiting for death;
However, this process did not go smoothly, as the Luo clan guards and generals were desperately pushing outward, and those enemies were almost crazy to surround them, and finally even the feudal lord himself was injured by the splattering falling tiles, and fell into a brief coma.
After half a ring, the last remnants of the enemy were annihilated or routed, and the feudal soldiers spontaneously pursued and fled to the rear.
I was also able to re-enter the hall of the City Lord's Mansion in a mess, surrounded by guards who were waiting for me.
It's just that the banquet scene, which was once decorated with lights and decorations, is now only fresh or dried blood stains on the floor, and corpses piled up on the overturned table. In several of these key locations where the attacks were clearly attacked, the dense and scattered corpses made it almost impossible for people to land and put their feet, so you can imagine what a terrible battle took place here.
And in the corner of the pavilion where they had retreated lastly, my men unexpectedly found that most of the wounded who had been left behind were still alive; It seems that because the besieging enemy abandoned them and shifted the focus of the attack, more than a hundred more people were rescued.
However, then, between the two groups of people who were rescued and picked up, the atmosphere was a little subtle or awkward. But that's what I don't know.
Suddenly, some of the feudal soldiers who had taken advantage of the victory to pursue the enemy and some of them fled back from behind those corridors and buildings.
Then, I saw a large firelight rising behind the lobby, and then I learned that the second half of the City Lord's Mansion had been piled with firewood and fire oil by those defeated enemies.
As a result, it was ignited as it fled, and in a short time it became a large sea of fire, trapping many of the vanguard troops and the fleeing enemy together.
These are a bit tricky, and no matter how brave and fearless my troops are, they can't use their physical bodies to storm a fire of this magnitude.
As a result, the frontal offensive had to be stopped again, and instead the troops were divided into detours outside the city lord's mansion to intercept and outflank the enemy forces that might retreat urgently.
