The continued onslaught of trebuchets and arrow towers did far more damage to the defenders than the shattered walls, the corpses smashed into meat sauce, and the ruined dwellings. The constant high pressure brought the willpower of the defenders to the brink of collapse, and when the sun set, Huangfu Song did not give the order to make a fire and make food, but ordered the infantry to attack the city.

Tens of thousands of infantry carried ladders and poured towards the city like a tidal wave. The convoy was carrying a piece of beech wood, and dozens of people operated a simple pulley block at the same time, mobilizing the beech wood to hammer the city gate continuously.

The defenders on the tower will kill the soldiers who are approaching, but soon someone will make up for them, and they will not retreat. Fire oil fell on the towers, and suddenly the city walls were in a sea of fire, and countless soldiers were engulfed in flames, but they were burned to a charred corpse in a few moments. The archers of the defenders also played a role at this time, and they could shoot directly at the castle tower without aiming.

In less than half an hour, most of the soldiers besieging the city were killed or wounded. Huangfu Song ordered a retreat and returned to the camp to continue the siege.

The ministries quickly counted the number of people, and the death toll exceeded 10,000! Some soldiers were seriously wounded and could not be treated in this era, so they ended their suffering by mending their own swords.

Guo Yi couldn't bear to look directly, so he simply rode to the hillside and looked at the battlefield of a mess, corpses strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood. The Golden River was blocked, and boulders, towers, corpses, and swords cut off the flowing water, and the water overflowed the surface of the river and began to flood on both banks.

"Swore to sweep away the Huns without regard for themselves, and five thousand mink brocade mourned Hu Chen. Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream. ”

Walking slowly on the mountain, watching the sun fall from the other side of the mountain. Dark night, good. You can't see it in the dark, or at least you can sleep peacefully tonight.

"My lord." Long Yi lowered his head, his expression gloomy, and his earlier ambition and pride were gone. "We're five hundred dead," he whispered. Fifty people died in the brothers of the dragoon battalion. ”

"I see." Guo Yi didn't know how to answer him, and only after half a sound did he burst out, "The corpses have all converged?" ”

There were tears in the corners of Ryuichi's eyes, and he choked up and said, "Well, it's being cremated." ”

Guo Yi nodded and said softly, "We have to survive and take them home." ”

"Yes." Long Yi wiped away his tears and said categorically: "When the city is captured, I will let these dog thieves pay for their blood debts!" ”

"Ugh." Guo Yi sighed and wanted to persuade a few words to talk about the difference between civilians and soldiers in war, but he swallowed the words again. How should he persuade? He was the commander of the army, and the soldiers were already excited to avenge their comrades, to teach them to be kind to their captives and not to slaughter civilians?

There was only silence.

"Go and rest. I'm walking around alone. ”

The dragon nodded slightly, "No." ”

After walking along the mountain road for a long time, Long Yi came again, this time his face was full of anxiety, and he was holding a command flag in his hand, which was the flag that Guo Yi left for Yang Bo to order the rear.

"My lord! The Qiang people have invaded the Wudu! ”

Guo Yi only said two words, "Go back to the teacher!" ”

The situation was much more urgent than imagined, and Guo Yi only sent a letter to Huangfu Song and led his army back to Wudu County. His troops were too small, and there were passes everywhere in the west of Wudu County, so the Qiang people easily broke through the defense line after gathering their troops, and rushed all the way into the hinterland of Wudu County with their fast horse scimitars.

Yang Bo's defenders were powerless to resist and had retreated to Shanglu County, relying on the terrain to temporarily block the Qiang attack. Wudu Dao County has fallen, and the newly established Xihe Township has also fallen into the hands of the Qiang people.

The road from Shangguo City back to Xihe Township was more than 350 miles, and most of them were mountain roads, and the roads were narrow, making it difficult for the army to pass. What's more, now that the hometown has been terminated, the supply line is also a problem that has to be taken into account, and it is also necessary to prevent the counterattack of the kingdom army.

"Long Er, you and Wang Yi are responsible for dispatching the logistics team to retreat back to Xicheng and organizing the support of the troops. You listen to Wang Yi's dispatch in everything, and there must be no mistakes, understand? ”

"Yes!" Ryuji rode back to the garrison alone and went to inform Wang Yi.

Guo Yi hurriedly ordered the camp to be pulled, and the whole army retreated directly along the Western Han River. The soldiers all brought only one ration and hurried all night. The infantry are all recruited locally in Wudu County, and now their hometown has been attacked by the Qiang people, remembering what the Qiang people did before, it greatly stimulated their willpower, and they ran all night without complaining.

The dragoon battalion itself has no problem in terms of energy, and the resentment accumulated in the siege has been transferred to the Qiang people at this time. I was the most annoyed when my hometown was raided when the attack was frustrated, not to mention that the Qiang people were still the group that had been chopped and chopped vegetables by them!

But it's useless to be anxious, the distance won't shorten, and the road won't become smooth. After two days and one night, they finally arrived at the mountain pass north of Xihe Township, and the Qiang people sent a team of cavalry to garrison this place, which was evening, but the Qiang people were obviously accustomed to life on horseback, and did not need to make a large-scale fire to make food, and directly picked up the barbecue and chewed it.

"Rush with me!" Guo Yi patted the horse, but found that the horses under the crotch were already exhausted, and they would be exhausted if they drove it again. Considering that the impact of cavalry was needed in the future, Guo Yi had to change his strategy, "The dragoon battalion dismounted!" Kill me in! ”

"Kill!" The dragoon battalion dismounted one after another, let the infantry take care of it, and picked up the Mo knife and followed Guo Yi to charge towards the checkpoint on foot.

"Kill!" The Qiang people brandished scimitars and rushed at them with their horses, shooting with bows and arrows from time to time.

Guo Yi waved the dragon's tail and blocked the arrows, the pace of his feet did not decrease, the "evil eye" had already turned on, and in the eyes of everyone, he was as fast as a golden lightning, and he was in the enemy formation at once.

"Withdraw!" The Qiang people immediately realized that the situation was not right, and they turned around and ran. But the horses are too slow compared to Guo Yi's speed! Before they could react a second time, the Dragon's Tail Spear had already begun to harvest human heads!

Since being shot and unconscious, Guo Yi has not used the evil eye for a long time, and has greatly reduced the number of times he charges, and every time he fights, he only acts as a vanguard officer, and retreats between the soldiers after breaking through the enemy's position.

The familiar feeling fills the whole body, and the limbs are extremely comfortable. The killing intent in his heart suddenly rushed to the highest value, and the dragon tail spear swept among the enemy like a real black dragon.

The white-gold evil eye is like a lighthouse in the dark night, leading the Qiang people to the other side of death, under their feet is the vast sea in the storm, the huge waves keep coming, a huge black dragon rolls in the waves, they keep overturning, just fell into the water, before they have time to call for help, the sharks tore them to pieces.

"Ahhh Guo Yi threw the dragon tail spear with all his might, and the dragon tail spear was like a cannon, wrapped with black energy, and smashed into the mountain wall, carving out a huge prototype stone pit.

"Lord!" It was the first time that Long Yi and the others had seen Guo Yi do his best, and the power of this shot frightened them.

The "evil eye" faded, Guo Yi jumped onto the mountain wall, stood on the barrel of the dragon's tail gun, looked at Xihe Township in the distance, and said indifferently: "Stay here tonight and rest for one night." Kill them all tomorrow! ”

"Yes!"
