Chapter 405: The Battle for the Capture of the City (3)
"Kill the Tartar !!" At this point in the battle, the Dongting Lake in front of Baling City was already full of such earth-shattering shouts and killings.
Under the attack of the black-clothed army with its absolute superiority, the officers and men of more than 10,000 sailors were not opponents at all, and the situation was completely eroded in the blink of an eye.
"Defeated, defeated!" On the wall of Baling, Pei Changqing watched this scene. Even though I already had the heart to see death as home, I could see with my own eyes that the sailor troops I had commanded for several years had come to naught, and my face couldn't help but turn pale and desperate.
"Come, the time has come to serve the king, soldiers, kill the thief!!" Pale and desperate, he cried out, but apparently to no avail.
"The whole army obeys the order and attacks the city!" In a moment, when the vanguard Zhao Jiu defeated the Chinese army of the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division in one fell swoop. He couldn't help but command his soldiers and horses to rush straight to Baling City.
As for the headless flies on the right and left wings, they were handed over to Guo Yu and Gao Kaida to solve.
"The whole army listens to the order, in this battle, whoever climbs the city wall first will be promoted to one level and rewarded with one hundred taels of silver. Whoever kills the thief chief Pei Changqing will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with a thousand taels of silver! "All the way to Baling City, in order to boost morale and break the enemy in one fell swoop, Zhao Jiu couldn't help but roar like this.
And when the black-clothed soldiers under his command heard that he had offered such a rich reward. Under the heavy reward, everyone naturally fought bravely, and one by one they jumped off the warship like hungry wolves that smelled blood.
Then he also resisted the enemy's dense arrows on the wall of Baling, and used all kinds of siege equipment to start the siege.
"Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood. For the sake of the little military salary of the Tartars, labor and management don't want to lose their lives. "Unlike those officers and soldiers of the naval division who have been in battle for a long time on Yuezhou Road, the officers and soldiers defending the city in Baling City have long since become complete soldiers in a comfortable environment.
No, Zhao Jiu and the others had just started the siege, and the two armies only fired two waves of arrows back and forth, but there were already deserters among the Baling defenders.
"Bastard, the two armies are facing each other, how can they retreat. Return to the front of the battle immediately, or 'die'! "After all, Pei Changqing is also a veteran of battle. Although he could not be spared in this battle, this did not mean that Pei Changqing would choose to be killed.
He wants to be a loyal minister of the Yuanmeng court, so even if he dies, he will definitely not let Zhang Shihua and the black-clothed army under his command be too wishy-washy.
Therefore, those fugitives with different intentions on the city wall of Baling often turned around and encountered a supervision team composed of Pei's disciples as the backbone. Threaten the dissenting defenders with swords and deaths to continue the battle.
In ancient China, the strict and perfect class system and the Confucian culture with the three outlines and five constants as the core ideology had a huge impact on the ancient Chinese.
Under the subtle influence of this strict and perfect class feudal system and China's unique ideology, the landlords and officials in the ruling class and the common people in the ruled class alike. Unless you have the strength to be extremely strong, strong enough to control the overall situation, or you are completely driven to death.
Otherwise, these individuals, who are in the system and have been imperceptibly influenced by Confucianism, will never dare to give birth to any idea of rebellion and rebellion against authority.
This is the fundamental reason why the Red Turbans and Blacks, who rebelled against alien rule in order to survive, are still branded as thieves by mainstream society.
So, in such a situation, when the authority threatens these dissenting soldiers with death. Out of instinctive awe and obedience to authority, these soldiers still obediently returned to the front of the battle.
"Kill the Tartar !!" Those dissident soldiers, although threatened by the Warlords, were in front of the battle. But their existence obviously does not play a decisive role.
The attack of the black-clothed army at this time was becoming more and more fierce, so in just a few moments, several soldiers who were not afraid of death had already climbed the city wall.
"Kill! Puff!! "A black-clad sergeant who was not afraid of death finally climbed the city wall. Before his feet could stand firmly, he couldn't help but stab a few spears.
And although this soldier has a lot of courage, but at this time the foothold is not stable, no matter how strong his skills are, he can't show a few points at this time.
Therefore, when he heard a cry of pain, the soldier who had been stabbed by several spears could not help but fall off the city wall and become a dead body.
But the few soldiers who climbed the city wall were not all like this. In two places where the defense was relatively weak, the two soldiers who ascended first successfully gained a firm foothold on the city wall, and with their own bravery, they successfully cleared a vacant space on the city wall.
And when a place to settle on the city walls is successfully cleared, the rest will be easy.
The black-clothed soldiers who were not afraid of death followed their footsteps, climbed the city wall one after another, and then formed a small battle formation on the city wall for the first time, constantly counterattacking the officers and soldiers on the city wall, and expanding their foothold.
"The sword and shield hand is almost up. The spearmen of the second echelon, now immediately give me to climb the city wall, assist the sword and shield men of the first echelon, and completely take the city wall of Baling. "Under Baling City, Li Zhi, as a high-ranking officer of the Black-clothed Army, did not participate in the dangerous siege battle this time.
Instead, he shouted under the city walls like this, directing his soldiers to launch a counterattack.
Although the city wall of Baling is very tall, the width of the city wall is only two zhang. With a width of only two zhang, only a dozen sword and shield men are needed to form a line of defense on the city wall.
Therefore, in such a situation, the number of troops is often of little significance. What can really determine the outcome depends on the individual's bravery and the cooperation between the team.
And in these two points, the black-clothed army is undoubtedly much stronger than the defenders of Baling City.
So when the two first places were taken, each of them invested two hundred troops. The Baling defenders, who far surpassed the black-clothed army in numbers, could only be pressed and beaten by the black-clothed sergeants.
"Kill the Tartar !!" After a while, on the walls of Baling City, the black-clothed army's shouts of killing couldn't help but become louder and louder.
And under such a loud shout of killing, the black-clothed sergeants who were full of morale couldn't help but press the defenders on the city wall to retreat step by step. As a result, in just a few moments, the two places that ascended first, together the length of the Baling South City Wall under their control reached two or three hundred meters.
So under such circumstances, the black-clothed troops who poured onto the city wall of Baling couldn't help but increase more and more.
And when the number of black-clothed soldiers who poured onto the city wall reached 1,000, the rout began to appear among the officers and soldiers defending the city.
"Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood. Brothers, run for your life. The officers and soldiers defending the city shouted like this. It's not enough to run away alone, but I can't help but lead more people to flee with them with words and actions.
And in this way, when the number of rout escapees reaches a certain level, it will naturally be difficult to stop the small number of Overseers.
And when the Overseer was unable to punish the fleeing soldiers, in the face of the fierce attack of the Black-Clad Army, a great rout naturally appeared.
"Kill, kill! Let's go, hurry up and go with labor and management to slaughter Pei Changqing, kill this person, the official will be promoted to three levels, and the reward will be a thousand taels of silver! "After the defeat of the officers and soldiers defending Baling City, Li Zhi and Lu Zhen, who were the first to climb the city wall as Zhao Jiu's subordinates.
Naturally, at the first time, he regarded Pei Changqing, the manager of Yuezhou Road, as his primary goal.
After all, when the black-clothed army gradually became stable and had a large talent reserve, it was naturally impossible to be as easy as before if they wanted to be promoted among them.
So in such a situation, Pei Changqing's head, the temptation of Li Zhi and Lu Zhen, is really not ordinary.
Therefore, at this time, it is naturally impossible for these people to pay attention to those headless flies. One by one, like hungry wolves, they roared, and they couldn't help but rush towards where Pei Changqing was.
"Those who surrender, roll to the side of the road, and you will be spared death!" At this time, it was too slow to kill people.
Therefore, these generals who were bent on killing Pei Changqing couldn't help but roar like this, in order to separate a way from the chaotic crowd, and the big fish of Pei Changqing in the province fled again.
However, they didn't know that from the rout of the troops to the present, Pei Changqing and nearly a thousand diehard troops stayed in place, but they never moved.
"My sons and brothers, the time has come to serve the king, let these thieves see the power of our Pei sons! Today's battle, only one death! ”
"Serve the king, only to die!" At this time, Pei Changqing had nearly a thousand soldiers and horses under his tent who had the will to die, but his morale was not reduced by half a point.
"Treat death as home, and never mess up. This Pei Changqing is really a good soldier! In the midst of the chaos, Li Zhi and the others heard such an angry roar and shouted, and they couldn't help but admire Pei Changqing in their hearts.
After all, 'a thousand households are the only one who dies'. The words 'treat death as home' are easy to say, but if you really want to do it, it is extremely difficult.
Therefore, no matter what Pei Changqing's position is at this time, just by virtue of his method of training soldiers, this person will be worthy of the word 'famous general'.
However, despite this, a fierce general like Li Zhi and Lu Zhen will never back down because of this. Even these fierce generals, not only will they not flinch because of this, but after hearing such shouts and killings, they rushed to kill three points faster.
However, this time, Li Zhi, Lu Zhen and others were the credit for killing Pei Changqing, and they were preempted by others.
After all, Pei Changqing is not Nezha, and there are no three heads on the neck that can be chopped.
"Pei Changqing! Haha, this great achievement is to make labor and management set up. Brothers, give me labor and capital, and slaughter the one surnamed Pei! After a while, the first to lead the soldiers and horses to rush here was Deputy Qianhu Lu Zhen.
Lu Zhen, in terms of official position alone. Just as a second-in-command deputy thousand-household, he is actually not qualified to get involved in such a great achievement as Pei Changqing.
But who made this thing hard and well-qualified, and he was still righteous. At that time, he Lu Zhen followed Zhang Shihua as a subordinate soldier and rebelled from Taihe. In this way, Wanhu Guanwang 19 and even Privy Zhao Jiu are all familiar with him.
Therefore, with the intention of Wang 19, Lu Zhen couldn't help but lead 500 troops independently as a deputy Qianhu official. And these five hundred soldiers and horses are naturally all elite soldiers and horses.
Therefore, after commanding such an elite army, relying on his own bravery, Lu Zhen also made a lot of contributions in this battle. Not to mention anything else, in this battle, the number of Qianhu and the senior generals at the level of Deputy Qianhu who were killed by Lu Zhen alone reached as many as three.
But even so, in the black-clothed army, where would anyone think that he had been rewarded too much for his achievements.
is saying that there are many people in the black-clothed army who are not convinced by 'related households' like Lu Zhen who are treated special by the leaders. Under such circumstances, Lu Zhen, who has always been proud, is naturally eager to make a remarkable contribution to make others shut up.
Therefore, when he led the army to Pei Changqing's side, he, who was famous for his bravery, couldn't help but rely on his own courage and rushed into the enemy group first.
"Kill the Tartar !!" Lu Zhen roared loudly, brandishing a heavy battle knife, and at this time, he couldn't help but face an officer and an officer of a hundred households.
And among the die-hard troops under Pei Changqing's account, who can serve as a hundred household officials like Baihu who have extremely high requirements for personal bravery, this person is not a mediocre and incompetent person. Therefore, after the two of them faced each other, even a battle-hardened general like Lu Zhen.
There are no dozens of returns, but it is difficult to kill the enemy.
Therefore, in such a situation, Lu Zhen, who only killed one enemy pawn, couldn't help but be entangled. Lu Zhen, who relied on his own bravery to take the lead, originally planned to use his extraordinary courage to take the lead in order to break the enemy's morale.
But now that he is entangled by others, it is naturally impossible to take the lead. Therefore, even if the five hundred soldiers under his command are all elite and daring warriors, when they encounter these outlaws under Pei Changqing's tent, they fall into the disadvantage.
"General, General! Pei Changqing and the others are here! On the other side, when Lu Zhen's attack was easily resisted by Pei Changqing's outlaws, Li Zhi led his brothers under his tent to kill them.
"Hahaha, good, good. Brothers, give it to me, kill Pei Changqing, I will definitely be rewarded! Discovering Pei Changqing, and seeing that Pei Changqing had already been divided into a part of his forces by Lu Zhen, Li Zhi was naturally very happy in his heart.
Therefore, with a wave of his sword, he couldn't help but command his soldiers to rush forward. However, he himself did not think that Lu Zhen would take the lead in all battles.
"Damn it, brothers, kill me. At this time, you must not let Monk Li pick peaches. Over there, seeing Li Zhi suddenly appear, Lu Zhen was naturally anxious. So while yelling, the move couldn't help but become more ruthless.
