Chapter 70: The Bloody Battle of Yingcheng
On the 15th, the Fishery and Labor Department of the Beiwang Army regrouped and led 20,000 troops to re-attack Yingcheng.
Du Hui ordered Ji Hunt to lead 3,000 Yunmeng troops, 5,000 new soldiers to fight, in the eastern suburbs of the city, Ji Hunt took the lead, a Ge in hand, unstoppable.
The general of the Yunmeng army, Hu Ying, led more than 1,000 archers to ambush the cloth soldiers of the Northern Wang Army, and after countless casualties, the fishing labor was defeated by the Yunmeng army and retreated.
Du Hui personally beat the drum in Yingcheng to strengthen the military prestige of the Yunmeng Army, and in this battle, the backbone of the people was once again shaped!
After the defeat and retreat of Yulao, the left vanguard army Ju Neng led more than 30,000 people in a multi-front formation and began to attack the 8,000 people led by Ji Hunt!
The fishermen took the opportunity to counterattack, and Ji Hunt and Hu Yi Oyster were defeated by the number of the Northern King's army and retreated to Yingcheng.
"You are a hero with people, hundreds of casualties today in exchange for thousands of deaths of the Northern King Army, this is the best win against the red-headed army since the old Sui!"
Du Hui said to the many Yunmeng Army soldiers on the platform in Yingcheng.
Hu Yan said: "General, this wave of the Northern King Army is very orderly, and it has completely suppressed our army in the outskirts of the city!" β
Du Hui nodded, as the general of the old follower, he naturally knew the reputation of the four court generals of the Northern King Army.
Good at attacking and defending two each, defending and not careless, attacking two generals, fishing and labor are known for bravery...... And this time, Ju Neng, who saved the defeat of the Northern Wang Army, is famous for his strategy.
"Nothing!" Du Hui waved his hand earnestly, and then said: "The people in Yingcheng have moved to Xiantao, and it has arrived in the past few days, and this Yingcheng will not be defended if it can't be defended!" β
The soldiers of the Northern King in the city were at ease.
On the 16th, 30,000 horses and more than 10,000 people from the remnants of the fishery and labor department joined forces, and more than 40,000 soldiers should be under the city.
Although the number of people was less than half of the Northern Wang's army that day, this orderly march was like a mountain pressing on the hearts of more than 10,000 people in the Yunmeng army.
Although the walls of Yingcheng are thick and high, under the pressure of the enemy, Du Hui asked the soldiers to prepare firewood and put them under the city walls, ready to evacuate Yingcheng at any time.
Sure enough, after the Northern King Army set up the camp, more than 40,000 people were divided into multiple divisions, and they took turns to start attacking the city, and the momentum was huge, but once they entered the city wall, they quickly retreated, so that the arrows of the Yunmeng Army could not fall under the feet of the enemy soldiers.
Wheel War! γ
Du Hui's eyes were vicious, and after seeing the two sieges of the Northern King Army, he quickly judged that the siege tactics of the Northern King Army were wheel warfare!
γThis can ...... It really deserves to be the head of the four court generals of the Northern King Army...... γ
Du Hui also thought so in his heart.
Ji Hunt was angry by the Northern Wangjun's way of fighting, and asked Du Hui to fight: "General, Ji Hunt is willing to take men and horses out of the city to kill him without leaving a piece of armor!" β
Du Hui thought about it and said: "Ji Hunt, don't be brave with your husband, although the fisherman is brave, but a certain Yunmengjun is not afraid of him, although this Ju Neng is not brave, but a certain one has to pay attention to him...... Do you know why? β
In the past few days, Du Hui took Ji Hunt with him and often taught him the art of war, in this era, the method of commanding troops and fighting was grasped by the powerful, and it seemed that Ji Hunt and other people from civilians were naturally difficult to reach.
Ji Zhan thought for a while and said, "It's that Ju Neng who is good at arranging the army!" β
"Hmm." Du Hui nodded and said: "For the general, you can be brave and not strategic, but for the handsome, even if you are not brave, you must be strategic!" β
"General, Ji Zhan understands, but at the moment, if we attack the city in the order of the red-headed army, our soldiers will not be able to rest, I am afraid that it will not take twelve hours, and we will be sleepy and tired!"
Hearing this, Du Hui sighed and said, "This Yingcheng can't be defended......"
Hearing this exclamation, Ji Hunt was also silent.
Du Hui turned his head and looked in the direction of Xiantao: "It's been ten days, and a certain old follower has already survived ten days for the Qin people, and the Xiantao that Qin Gongzi promised is the place where the bones of the red-headed army are buried!" β
"Xiantao?" Ji Jia also looked to the northwest of Yingcheng.
"Oysters!" Du will point to the point.
Hu Yong Oyster replied: "The end will be! β
"Gather all seventy percent of the archers in the army to come to the east city wall to set up defenses, and then arrange a hundred men to hold the east city entrance!"
"Whoa!" The oyster responded.
Du Hui looked at Ji Hunt and said slowly: "Ji Hunt, do you dare to fight again for the blood and bones of the old people?" β
Ji Hunt was overjoyed when he heard this: "Why don't you dare! β
"Good! is worthy of being a good man with his old followers! Du Hui praised, and then ordered: "Ji Hunting, you can lead the city to mobilize people and horses out of the city to fight, the drum will fight, and the drum will retreat, it may be done?" β
"Yes!" Ji Hunti responded.
"Go, so-and-so beat the drum for you!" Du Hui said.
Under the city, this feint was led by the fisherman, but Juneng was wrong, just as the fisherman was about to retreat, the drum on the city should be loud.
Then the gate of the city opened, and from inside appeared a figure of a tall horse, an enemy on horseback.
The rivers and lakes in the land of Jingchu were dense, horses were rare, and when the fishermen saw this, they immediately realized that the enemy army was ready to fight.
Sure enough, after the enemy general, there were countless enemy soldiers who held Changge in their hands.
"Red-headed ghost general, dare to fight!" Ji Hunting shouted.
Redheads?
This insulting word of the Han Shui Zhuji to call the soldiers of Jing State immediately angered the fisherman, and immediately said: "Kill these followers for me!" β
Ji Hunt laughed and was about to kill him, but he didn't expect the drums on the castle tower to stop abruptly.
Yulao just felt a sudden silence in his ears, and then he heard some wind, and the wind became very harsh from far and near.
"Whew! Shout! Shout...... Shout! Shout...... Shout! β
A rain of arrows like locusts flew out of Yingcheng's head, and suddenly the soldiers around Yulao fell to the ground one by one.
It was at this moment that the drums suddenly sounded, very rhythmic!
The rain of arrows came to an abrupt end.
Only then did Ji Hunt understand the intention of General Du Hui, and said loudly: "Soldiers, follow me to kill these red-headed ghosts!" β
"Kill! Kill...... Kill! β
The sound of killing and the sound of drums are intertwined, and the soldiers of the Yunmeng Army are in high spirits!
This battle is the last battle of the Yunmeng Army in Yingcheng, and it is a bloody battle to fight the old and follow the spirit of others!
Thinking of the destruction of the family when the country was destroyed, the humiliation of being driven by the enslavement of these red-headed ghosts during this time, and then the relatives who died tragically under the bronze halberd of the red-headed ghosts......
Whether it is the soldiers of the Yunmeng Army or the new pawns who have been newly recruited, they don't know where they got the strength, clenching the Changge in their hands tightly, and all the strength they have saved in the past few days has burst out at this moment.
The collision between Tie Ge and the copper halberd rubbed sparks...... The touch of metal and flesh ignited a thick bloody gas in the air.
Although the country died, the people did not die!
"This battle is over...... The soldiers will be able to go home! β
This is the promise that Admiral Du will say when they go out of the city gate for a decisive battle!
