Chapter 340: Jianzhou Offensive and Defensive Battle 2

"Kill, kill, kill"

"Chong, kill all the traitors, make meritorious contributions, and seal your wife and son in this dynasty. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The drums beat like thunder, and the shouts were like thunderbolts

Although most of the Tang troops under Bredo were government soldiers who had never fought before, they had received corresponding training after all, and in this environment, they quickly adapted to the atmosphere of the battlefield.

Despite the fact that the hemp grass and other victims defending the city continued to bend their bows and arrows, the killing and wounding of the Tang army was limited, and in addition to the suppression of the Tang army's archers, Bledor led the army and finally arrived at the city of Jianzhou.

Of course, at this point, it can be regarded as a small step of success for the Tang army, but this is only the beginning, and the cruelty of siege warfare really begins at this time.

Because the Tang army came in a hurry, they didn't bring large siege equipment at all, of course, it was not that Duan Jian and others forgot, but they deliberately didn't bring it, after all, Jianzhou City is said to be a state city, but its city wall is only less than three zhang high, this height, plus the defense of the city is not just a group of rabble, so there is no need for many large siege equipment at all.

The Tang army led by Bredo was like this, they only brought high ladders, of course, just simple ladders, not complex ladders.

"Hurry up, set up the ladder, rush to the city, and kill all the rebels."

Standing under the city of Jianzhou, Bledor commanded the Tang army under his command and shouted.

"Bang Bang Bang"

Under the manipulation of the Tang Army, the ladders slapped fiercely on the city wall.

"Ah, be careful, get out of the way."

When erecting the ladder, it was not smooth sailing, how could the hemp grass and others at the head of the city watch the Tang army erect the ladder, therefore, when the Tang army set up the ladder, they also used all their strength to launch an attack on the Tang army under the city, the arrows rained down, the stones rolled, and the Tang army inadvertently took their lives by these things, the most powerful thing is the stone rolling wood at the head of the city, the stone is a little better, although it is polished quite smooth, but there is also a certain pressure, after falling to the ground, At most, roll a few feet away, and then stop.

But the rolling wood is different, a rolling log falls from the top of the city, often turning a place into a land of flesh and blood, and the rolling wood can not only kill and wound the soldiers of the Tang army, but even the ladder erected on the city wall may be broken by it.

In the middle of the incense bar, when Bledor and all the soldiers under his command set up the ladder, there were already 100 people who fell under the city, some died directly, and some were seriously injured somewhere, screaming continuously.

Even though the casualties were so huge, Bledor did not have a trace of fear, since he went to the battlefield, he had only one thought, that is, to attack Jianzhou City, kill all the rebels in the city, and avenge himself and the many soldiers under his command.

"Smash, smash me hard, smash one Tang Jun to death, reward you with a pound of meat, smash two to death, and give you a chicken."

At the head of the city, Ge Da carried a guillotine full of rubbing mouths, and shouted to the victims who were throwing rocks and logs under the city with all his strength.

"Getou, it's only a chicken to kill two, what if you kill three, you can't reward a certain sheep." Hearing Ge Da's shout, some people couldn't help but joke, after all, the current disaster victims are already different from leaders and ordinary soldiers, but everyone used to be farmers, and they were all villagers, and they usually shouted official positions are also fun, and no one really takes this kind of official position to heart in their hearts.

Hearing the joke of the fellow villager, Ge Da was not angry, but looked up to the sky and laughed, "Hahaha, three, don't say three, if you work harder, I will smash ten Tang soldiers to death, I will be whipped by Da Lang, and I will also find you a mother-in-law." ”

"Oh woo, oh woo......."

As soon as Ge Da said this, the victims above the city instantly became excited, after all, for men, whether it is throughout the ages, there are only two things they are most concerned about, one is the desire for power, and the other is women, and it can even be said that in many cases, women are also the reason why men have strong desire for power.

"Bang Dang"

Just when the victims above the city were quite excited, I saw a young man who was not very old and had a thin body, carrying a huge stone with red ears and red ears and wanted to throw it to the city, but what he didn't expect was that because his body was too thin, he had not moved the stone to the battlement, so his hands were weak, and the stone fell to the ground, and he rolled into the distance.

"What's the matter, Xiao Liuzi, you are weak, don't be here, go to the city to do some light work, we are enough here."

The stone just rolled to Ge Da's feet, and he saw Ge Da leaning out a hand, easily picking up the stone, and said to the thin young man.

Looking at the stone in Ge Da's hand, which looked like a basketball, the thin young man was a little embarrassed, but after hearing Ge Da's words, he still mustered up the courage to say, "Uncle Ge, I'm ..... I.... I also want to kill Tang Jun, I also want meat and chicken, my grandfather died early, my mother worked hard every day in order to support me, and she hadn't eaten meat for many years, I must let her eat meat well. ”

Hearing the young man's words, Ge Da shook his head lightly, stopped talking, and just handed the stone in his hand to the young man.

And this scene was seen by Ma Cao and Liu Mingyu not far away, Ma Cao felt excited, but Liu Mingyu felt helplessness and loss.

...............................

People say, 'Killing one is regarded as a crime, and slaughtering ten thousand is regarded as a male'

Tu Wan here is not to kill 10,000 ordinary people, but 10,000 regular soldiers, after all, only on the battlefield can you really kill people legally, and only in the chaotic place of the battlefield, where life is not guaranteed, can the gap between everyone be truly revealed, otherwise, the executioner kills not a small number of people, but in the eyes of veterans who have fought several bloody battles, they are not much stronger than a little chick.

"Governor, let's stop here today, if the fight continues, there won't be much progress, it's just a vain casualty of soldiers." When the siege battle went on for another hour, Chen Guotai said to Duan Jian.

"Hmm..... What, Brother Chen, this ..... This is why, don't you see that there are already soldiers attacking, why did you choose to withdraw at this time. ”

Duan Jian was very puzzled by Chen Guotai's request, although at the beginning, he was dissatisfied with Bledo's sacrifice of so many soldiers, but at this time, with everything being prepared, there were already Tang soldiers who climbed to the top of the city wall of Jianzhou City along the ladder, just because of the stubborn resistance of the rebels on the city wall, the Tang soldiers did not climb the city wall, in Duan Jian's opinion, at this time, he should not retreat, but should order the whole army to attack, and strive to take Jianzhou in one fell swoop.

Chen Guotai was also aware of Duan Jian's doubts, so he explained, "Governor, now it seems that our side has an advantage on the surface, but you don't know that this is the rebels above the city of Jianzhou, deliberately, from the fact that they resisted our soldiers to the city, and at the same time they could constantly send people to shoot arrows to the city, throwing stones and rolling wood, it can be seen that they must still have enough reserve forces, and even our ladder can be erected, it is also their intention." ”

"What, this...... How is this possible, you can't be telling a joke! Listening to Chen Guotai's incredible inference, Duan Jian was even more surprised.

"Hahaha, Du Du, Chen Mou entered the army at the age of fifteen, and it has been more than 20 years now, although he has not fought a few big battles, but he has also fought a lot of small battles, and he has also learned the methods of leading the troops of the ancients. Chen Guotai said with a smile.

"Weirdness"

Hearing Chen Guotai's words, Duan Jian looked up at Jianzhou City again, this look, it really surprised him, and he really saw something wrong, that is, the cloud ladder leaning on the top of the city is a little too regular, it stands to reason that when the cloud ladder is erected, the Tang army must go wherever it goes, and even in order to increase the strength of the siege, the cloud ladder is often set up in one place, so that it can effectively attack a certain place at the head of the city.

After all, the place above the city is narrow, and there are a number of sergeants who can move in one place, and if there are more people, they can't be staggered.

However, now Duan Jian found that the cloud ladders erected on Jianzhou City, each one directly separated by two or three zhang distance, and those Tang Army soldiers who climbed up to the top of the city along the cloud ladder had to face three or four enemy attacks, in this case, except for the immortals, I am afraid that no one could attack it.

"This ...... This...... What's going on, Brother Chen, what's going on. Duan Jian asked in surprise.

"Dudu, this is the reason why the last general asked you to withdraw your troops, from the current situation, the people in the city are not really a rabble who don't understand war, although compared with our elite soldiers, there is still a bit of a gap, but they still have some ability, besides, after a morning of attack, Bledor and the soldiers under his command are probably already exhausted, and it will not be useful to continue the attack." Chen Guotai said.

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll order Mingjin to withdraw his troops." After knowing that it would be useless to continue fighting, Duan Jian had already made up his mind about withdrawing his troops, and immediately, he gave Ming Jin's order to the herald beside him.

"Dangdangdang......."

When the crisp sound of gold sounded, the soldiers of the Tang Army, who had long been exhausted, retreated one after another, and the army of disaster victims above the city had already erupted into an earth-shattering shout, after all, repelling the enemy's attack was already something worth celebrating for them.

Although Bledor was very reluctant in his heart, but the military order was like a mountain, and Mingjin's voice sounded, and he, who had climbed up the ladder for the third time, had to jump down again, and after glancing at the city with hatred, he gritted his teeth and retreated.

"The last general is incompetent, he did not attack the city, but caused my army to lose morale, it is really an unforgivable sin, please supervise the crime." Kneeling in front of Duan Jian's horse, Bledor pleaded guilty to Duan Jian in frustration.

"Hahaha, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, how can you kill the general because the war is not going well for a while, besides, today's events, the bravery of General Bledor and all the soldiers, the governor of Pontus and all the soldiers are obvious to all, how can General Bledor be guilty, not only is he not guilty, but you also have merit, great merit, and when the war is over, he will definitely ask His Majesty to give you and all the soldiers credit, and now I also ask General Bledor and all the soldiers to return to the camp and rest, and the next battle will depend on you?"

Duan Jian laughed and got off the horse, helped the bloodied Brighto, and said loudly at the same time.

Sure enough, with Duan Jian's attitude and actions, the Tang Army, which was originally demoralized, instantly ignited its fighting spirit again, and even many captains looked at Bledor with jealousy, after all, since Duan Jian dared to say such a thing, then after the war, Bledor would definitely be written on the fold by Duan Jian as the first credit, maybe the court would not only not blame Bledor for losing Jianzhou City, but would also give him an official and a knight, if that was the case, Bledor would be a blessing in disguise.

"The last general...... Weekend..... The last general thanks the Governor for his grace, in this life and this life, the last general is willing to be the Governor's dog and horse, and has repaid the Governor's love. Regardless of whether Bledor is sincere or pretentious at this time, his performance has won everyone's recognition, after all, people in the army are bold people, and what they value most is kindness.

After appeasing Bledo and other soldiers and letting all the soldiers return to the camp, Duan Jian did not follow the army into the city, but still stood there, looking at the Jianzhou City not far away.

"Lang Jun, there was no certainty in this war, although it was useless today, but there was still a harvest, as long as it was attacked for a few days, the rebels in the city would definitely not be able to hold on, and the victory would be ours sooner or later." Looking at Duan Jian's expression, thinking that today's events had made Duan Jian have other ideas, Duan Mu couldn't help but open his mouth to persuade.

Zhou Xing, happy and even dressed as a personal soldier, although Su Wan'er did not speak, her face was also full of concern.

"Hmm...... You guys"

After being interrupted by Duan Mu, Duan Jian looked at his henchmen around him, and after being stunned for a moment, he smiled a little funny, "Hahaha, don't be too careful, a certain is not so fragile, isn't it just a tentative attack, what's the big deal, there are thousands of elites under a certain command, and there are even thousands of elites in Zhichong Mansion who have not been used, what is this kind of small blow." ”

"Ah..... It turns out that you are not sad, but ..... But why did you just stand there in a daze, and we thought you couldn't think about it for a while? Seeing that Duan Jian was fine, Su Wan'er couldn't help but glance at him and complained.
