Chapter 392: A Plan for Regeneration
Everywhere Xiao Chen ran, it turned into a sea of fire, and most of the people who didn't have time to restrain their hips and get off their horses and rush into the fire didn't make it out alive. Baidu search purple pavilion .
"Stop, stop!" gullen shouted, the first to catch up were his supporters, who had already lost Timur and three hundred elite soldiers during the day, and he did not want to lose another group of loyal men.
Although he revised the order in time, hundreds of people still died in the fire, plus the five stone throwers that were most relied on in this attack on the border city, and the sixty soldiers who were skilled in operating the stone throwers.
Rumble...... Boom......
A catapult collapsed, knocking two of its surroundings to the ground.
Gu Lilen was so hateful that he almost bit his teeth and bleed, and forced his anger to suppress Xiongzhong's anger, and asked, "Do you see clearly, what does the guy who rushed in just now look like?"
One of the soldiers replied, "Great King, that man has the face of a great Chu man. ”
"Da Chu people, Chen Xiao!" Gu Lilen said through gritted teeth, and Kerim had said this name more than once.
There was a cheer of cheers at the head of the border city, and without the threat of the catapult, they were confident enough to hold the city.
Standing at a great distance from his father, Klim muttered: "How is it possible, this is impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Just now, under the light of the fire, many people recognized the person who galloped the enemy camp as "Chen Xiao", didn't Gu Lilen send someone to Guozigou?
And how on earth did he calmly set fire to the enemy's pursuit?
Klim couldn't figure it out, and there was a fear in his mind.
Su Kemule's hands danced: "Great, have you all seen it, the person who destroyed the enemy's stone thrower is Chen Gongzi! Hahaha, Chen Gongzi was brought to the border city by my granddaughter Nana, and he not only saved Nana, but also the great savior of all of us." ”
The three lords were also very happy, and finally avoided a crisis of being broken, and believed that the morale of the frustrated Baishan clan would be lowered.
They didn't know that Gu Lilen's anger had reached the extreme, and that a mere Great Chu man had blocked the footsteps of his thousands of troops, and had also killed Timur and three hundred of the most elite troops.
This great shame must be washed away with the blood of the enemy!
He pulled out his scimitar violently, and ordered with great victory: "Everyone is ready to charge, even if there is no stone thrower, the previous fireball can light the way for us to charge, a small border city, how can it block the iron hooves of the Baishan army, rush!"
The soldiers had long been impatient, and before Guli Leng had repeatedly preached the wealth of the border city, they were scrambling to go in and plunder, and as soon as the order was given, these people urged their horses to rush towards the city wall.
On the city walls, cheers were replaced by silence, and Su Kemu shouted: "Soldiers, the time has come to protect your homeland, prepare your arrows and greet the enemy well." We are condescending and have an absolute advantage, and the victory must be ours. ”
The soldiers all took their arrows and opened their bows, keeping their aiming postures.
As the first enemy entered the incoming range, Su Kemu shouted, "Release the arrow!"
Whoosh ......
The feathered arrows pierced the night sky, rushing to the dozens of cavalry in front and landing with arrows, and the cavalry behind began to bend their bows to counterattack.
The two sides engaged in a tug-of-war, and the people standing on the walls not only had a height advantage, but also had the protection of the walls, and the casualty rate was much smaller than that of the enemy.
At this time, a staff member advised Gu Lilen: "King, our side does not have an advantage, it will cause great casualties if it continues like this, it is better to collect the troops first, in fact, it is not difficult to break the city, and acting rashly can only make things more complicated." ”
Gu Lilen also realized that this style of play was too disadvantageous, and when he heard what his staff said, he immediately ordered: "Mingjin retreats!"
Dingdingding......
The crisp sound of metal knocking sounded, and the cavalrymen, who had fallen into madness, fell on deaf ears, and it took a long time for them to slowly begin to retreat, leaving behind corpses.
There were cheers from the top of the city again, and the enemy suffered one after another, believing that they would not attack tonight, and everyone had a chance to sleep well.
"Report to the king, in the charge just now, more than 200 people were killed on our side, more than 100 others were seriously injured, and more than 300 were lightly injured. The herald cautiously knelt down in front of his master and said.
Gu Lilen's eyes widened: "How can it be possible to lose more than 300 people in one charge?"
Seriously wounded people are unable to continue fighting, and even if they are healed, they will be left disabled, and when statistics are counted in war, seriously wounded are generally treated as attrition in the same way as death.
The herald smiled bitterly and said, "Because it was night, the soldiers could not use their shields in order to see the road ahead, and they could not dodge the arrows from the city walls, so there were many casualties. ”
"The hateful border city, the hateful Su Kemu, the hateful Chen Xiao!" he scolded angrily: "And that bastard Krimu, there is not a single good person in the border city." ”
The staff smiled bitterly, the heart war is originally a game of life and death, any mercy may cost your own life, it is better to be a bastard than to be a dead man.
Gu Lilen turned his head to look at him and said, "Just now you asked this king to stop the attack, and said that it is not difficult to attack the city, that is, you have a new idea, right?"
A smile finally appeared on the face of the staff: "King Qiyu, of course we have the idea, in order for the plan to be implemented smoothly, the first thing we have to do is to withdraw the troops, and we must pretend to be very embarrassed." ”
Gu Lilen frowned: "Okay, just listen to you, everyone retreats!"
Looking at the Baishan cavalry that receded like a tide, the cheers on the city became louder, and the morale also rose.
The most unpleasant thing in my heart was Kerim, who originally thought that it was only a matter of time before Gulilen broke through the border city, but the result was that the Baishan soldiers were so vulnerable, and they suffered a big loss in front of the city that was not very tightly defended.
He regretted it a little, he knew that this was the case, why did he choose to cooperate with him in the first place, it was obviously stupid.
Thinking of this, the pressure in his heart involuntarily disappeared without a trace, and he also joined in the cheers.
No one saw that Xiao Chen, the little marquis, had already appeared on the streets of the inner city silently, you must know that after he made a big fuss about the enemy just now, the direction he chose to escape was exactly the opposite of the border city.
As for how he got in, it wasn't a secret, it was still a secret passage through the water tank.
In the enemy camp, morale was very low.
In the morning, he lost the general Timur and three hundred elites, and in the evening, he lost his troops again, and the people who originally supported Gulilen were also a little shaken.
Seeing that the time was ripe, the staff lowered their voices and said, "Your Majesty, do you remember the secret passage leading to the city?"
Gu Lilen nodded: "Didn't you go into the city to see him two days ago, but that passage is too narrow, it can only satisfy people to enter, what can it do?"
The smile of the staff became more and more sinister: "In the second half of the night, dozens of people will be secretly sent over, and the other party will be immersed in the joy of victory, and he will definitely be negligent, and it will not be difficult to open the city gate." Once the city gate is opened, what else can stop my Baishan army?"
Usually sending dozens of people in it will definitely not make any big waves, but at this moment, it can have a miraculous effect.
Gu Lilen's eyes lit up: "Good idea!"
