Chapter 293: Recovering Maocheng
Kill two birds with one stone......
This arrow not only shot through the person pulled by the commander of the Jin army to block the arrow, but also shot through the commander of the Jin army.
After that, he pierced the body of the commander of the Jin army and nailed the man to the city wall.
This shows the power of this arrow.
The people on the city walls, all stupid, they didn't expect this.
And so the ruler died, and was crucified on the wall.
"Dead?" When Cao Wenhan saw this scene, he couldn't believe it.
Fang Siyu and the general were already a little unable to see clearly, and they asked Cao Wenhan, "How is it?" ”
After Cao Wenhan explained, Fang Siyu was a little surprised.
But the general immediately shouted: "Attack." ”
The general will not be surprised how Xi Chen shot the people to death now, what he has to do now is to knock Maocheng down.
At this time, the Jin soldiers couldn't react, and if they didn't attack now, when would they attack.
The leader of the Jin army died too suddenly, without saying a word, and in an instant, the dragons were leaderless.
Even if he said a word, who would command, he didn't say a word, and now there is a mess on the city wall, and he wants to see if he is dead and can save people.
Under the city wall, the soldiers who returned to Jiangcheng rushed up again, and they all heard that the commander of the Jin army was dead, and at this time they were in high spirits.
Xi Chen came back from the place where he shot arrows, Cao Wenhan was no longer there, and he took the people of the Divine Arrow Battalion to attack.
Fang Siyu took the dragon bow in Xi Chen's hand, and she could see that Xi Chen's hand holding the dragon bow now was weak.
Xi Chen said to the general: "I'm afraid I can't go to the charge." ”
The general knew Xi Chen's situation, and after archery, he needed time to rest and recover.
The general said: "You are a great hero in this battle, and I will reward you when I conquer Maocheng." ”
"Thank you, General." Xi Chen said to the general.
Fang Siyu handed the dragon bow to the others, and she massaged the muscles on Xi Chen's arm so that Xi Chen would not be sore tomorrow.
Fang Siyu massaged Xi Chen and said, "This fight is very tragic. ”
Xi Chen glanced at it, yes, the knife saw blood, and people kept dying.
There is no way, this is war, although the Jin army has no commander, but it is also a bloody battle.
Xi Chen said: "It's good to capture Maocheng." ”
"Yes, as long as we capture Maocheng, we will complete one-third of the battlefield tasks." Fang Siyu felt that as long as the battlefield mission could be completed, there was hope.
The battle continued, and the resistance of the Jin soldiers was still fierce.
It was not until evening that the siege ladder approached the city walls, and they set up the ladder and tried to climb it.
But he was brought down from above by the golden soldiers on the city tower and fell to death I don't know how many.
But they still had to keep climbing, and the golden soldiers pushed the ladder away, and they picked it up and continued to climb.
This is a battlefield fought with human lives.
Xi Chen looked at the scene below, not knowing what to say, the general looked at the scene below, his face calm.
The general can't be soft-hearted at this time, he knows what he needs to do.
The siege log carts kept pounding on the city gates, and they tried to get in, but the Jin soldiers were still outside to resist them.
It's a mess, yes, it's a mess.
It's hard to see any tactics at this time.
Xi Chen's side is okay, everyone still has tactics and performs their duties, but Jin Bing is here, and it has already begun to be chaotic.
As long as they start to mess up, the general trend is basically gone.
"The gates of the city are opened." Suddenly, someone shouted in the middle of the battlefield.
At first, it was just the people around them who heard it, and then everyone started shouting, and the sound was louder and louder.
"Drumming." The general shouted.
The drums of war resounded through the sky at night, reaching the sky.
"Into town." The general shouted.
This order was conveyed one after another, and they entered the city and rushed into the city.
The Jin soldiers in Maocheng, seeing that the general trend had gone, began to retreat and began to flee.
They ran towards Rongcheng, and they couldn't hold Maocheng anymore.
In fact, before the city gate was broken, there were already generals of the golden soldiers, who ran away with people.
The gap in the city wall that went to Rongcheng is now a big gap by the Jin soldiers, and they all fled from here.
The Jin soldiers outside the city also scattered and fled, they won, they broke Maocheng.
This battle was the first victory and the first city to be recaptured by the Xia Kingdom in the past three years.
After entering Maocheng, Xi Chen received a lot of rewards, but his position was still small.
Because the position is in the small capital, if you want to continue to improve, meritorious service is only one aspect, and the ability to lead troops to fight is the key.
The other rewards Xi Chen didn't care, they were all distributed to the brothers below, and the dead ones were distributed to their families.
These brothers suffered, and the number of people who died in this battle was almost 20,000.
It's just them, not the golden soldiers.
Counting the golden soldiers, I'm afraid there will be more of them.
Tens of thousands of people, if there is no one, there will be no more, Xi Chen sometimes doesn't know these lives, is it really so worthless?
After Maocheng came in, there were many soldiers left, and the general immediately asked the general to repair the gap in the city wall.
The imperial court knew that Maocheng was recovered, and it was also a reward sent by thousands of miles of urgency.
Now that they have backup, they won't be in an embarrassing position in Huijiang City.
But he couldn't lose it when he returned to Jiangcheng, and after Maocheng stayed to defend the army, the general took people back to Jiangcheng.
Some of Maocheng's defense troops were soldiers who returned to Jiangcheng, and some of them were soldiers who came from the Xia Kingdom.
In the past, they couldn't come, but Maocheng was here to block it, but now that Maocheng has recovered, they can come.
But these soldiers, all of whom are new recruits, have little combat capability.
But it's still okay to defend the city for them, so that they won't be defeated by the Jin soldiers in one fell swoop.
And if you want to attack Maocheng in the future, Huijiang City will definitely help, and it is not so easy to break.
The first step in Maocheng has been completed, and Xi Chen, Cao Wenhan and others all have some joy in their hearts.
Follow the large army back to Jiangcheng, and their next target is Rongcheng.
However, it has just gone through a big war, and now it needs to be repaired.
In the days of repair, Xi Chen was even more curious about why Gu Guanqing hadn't appeared yet.
Everyone discussed this issue, and Xi Chen expressed his opinion, he thought that Gu Guanqing must be in Rongcheng.
Or a border town.
The border city was the first city occupied by the Jin soldiers, and Rongcheng was the second.
However, Xi Chen thinks that the possibility of Rongcheng is much greater than that of Border City.
"Then Gu Guanqing is very dangerous." Cao Wenhan said.
"There are many people in Rongcheng, if Gu Wanqing is a common person, there should be no danger." Xi Chen thinks that if Gu Guanqing is a common person, she should not have any problems if she stays honest in Rongcheng.
"But is Gu Wanqing a common man?" Fang Siyu's words made Xi Chen feel that he might indeed think too much.
Xi Chen, Cao Wenhan and Fang Siyu, they are all people with status, Gu Guanqing has no reason.
"We can't get into Rongcheng now." Xi Chen sighed, Xi Chen was actually worried about Gu Guanqing in his heart.
He comforted himself that he was not worried, there was a second personality, and there would be no major problems, but if he hadn't seen Gu Guanqing for so long, it was difficult for him to continue to comfort himself in his heart.
