Chapter 164: Asking for Subscriptions
Dilinazar was a very clever man, and the place she chose to pour the oil was near the ends of the ditch near the city wall, and the ditch that the Uighurs had painstakingly filled was only directly opposite the city gate, and this area was still a dangerous area full of traps, because the Uighurs had no choice but to deal with the Hami army who poured oil here. At this time, the effectiveness of the archers' attack was greatly reduced by the protection of the Hami army's shield array, which made the Uighur commander in charge of commanding the troops entering the city anxious, and in such a short period of time, it was impossible for him to organize manpower and material resources to fill in the road, and could only hope to defeat the main force of the Hami army in front of him before the Hami army poured oil into the trenches enough to destroy them.
The commander of the Uighur army, who was in charge of commanding the troops entering the city, immediately abandoned the Hami army's oil pourers, brandished his broadsword and pointed at the Hami army in front of him and shouted: "Warriors! Kill! If you work harder, you can defeat the Hami army's military formation, and if you can't rush through it again, we will be burned to death! ”
The soldiers of the Uighur army also understood the current situation, and further opened the sea and the sky, and the money and beauty were allowed to enjoy themselves, and when they took a step back, the sword mountain and the sea of fire would surely be cut off by the raging flames, so everyone fought bravely to be the first, and tried their best to break through the military formation of the Hami army at the expense of this life.
The Uighur commander, who commanded the Uighur troops entering the city, also rushed to the front through a passage made of Uighur corpses and armor to show that the soldiers had no intention of returning the favor.
The pressure on the defense line of the Hami army increased sharply, and several places even began to waver, and there was a slight danger of being broken through by the Uighur army, but the Hami army was also stubbornly persistent, because no one was a fool, the current situation was obvious, the two sides fought for time, as long as they held on until the moment the fire ignited, the victory must belong to Hami, who suffered so much, suffered so many crimes, and paid so many casualties, how could they be broken through by the enemy at the last moment? This breath must hold on no matter what!
"Quick! Resist me, kill those who retreat! Di Linaza was also anxious, brandishing her sword and shouting loudly. In fact, the ancient Chinese wars, the vast majority of the fight is not wisdom, are carried out in a hard-fought situation, although there are wonderful strategies in many classic battles recorded in the history books, but the reason why the classics can become classics is because there are few, and most wars are not there any wonderful strategies, because everyone is not stupid, there are only a few thirty-six strategies, Sun Tzu has seen the Art of War, no one will be easily fooled, if it is really encountered, in most cases it is still thrown off the arms and done, And such war examples cannot enter the eyes of historians, who often mention them in the record, or even do not write them at all, so they will give people a feeling that the literati and strategists are the most important factor in determining the victory or defeat, but in fact, it is not.
In the case that the strength of the two sides is not much different and can only be stunned, at this time, it is all about one breath, and whoever can hold it will become the final winner.
The soldiers of the Hami army and the Uighur army were all crazy, one step forward was a smooth road, one step back was the abyss from which no one could recover, and at this time, the ambition of men, and even the survival instinct of animals, all burst out, mingled, and transformed into a roar of rage, constantly intertwined in the sky near the north gate of Turpan.
"Quick! Hurry up! The commander of the Uighur army, who was in charge of commanding the troops entering the city, turned his head to look at the oil in the trench, and a look of horror appeared on his face.
The Uighur commander did not care about the danger, and went directly to the front line from the rear, with two brave guards, carrying machetes to personally cut down the soldiers of the Hami army.
"Don't quit! Kill the retreater! Dilinaza shouted loudly, directing his soldiers to plug the holes everywhere, as if it were a ship full of holes, and the crew had to do everything in their power to plug the holes in the midst of a storm at sea.
However, at this moment, the black horse appeared, and a ten-division commander of the Hami army was very frightened when he saw that the other party was so fierce, and he retreated quietly, all of which could not be concealed from the eagle-like eyes of Di Linazha, who was supervising the battle in the rear, she did not hesitate at all, and immediately led people over to correct the ten-division commander on the spot, and let his soldiers carry his head to show the public, if anyone dared to retreat, the end would be the same as him.
Dilinazar was not a cruel person, on the contrary, she loved the soldiers, but in this case, if the ten-captain was not killed, the battle would not be fought, and after the Uighur army broke the city, more soldiers and civilians would surely suffer. Sometimes, cruelty is also a kind of kindness, but it is only done as a last resort.
Although the Uighur army was very vicious, but there was an even more vicious princess behind to supervise the battle, and all the soldiers of the Hami army cut off the careful idea of running away on their own regardless of the overall situation, and fought back with all their hearts, withstanding wave after wave of Uighur charges. Even if it is dead, it will not take a step back.
Time passed minute by minute, for Di Linaza and her Hami soldiers, it was completely like a year, Di Linaza turned her head countless times to observe the oil in the trench, and finally determined that it was almost, immediately stopped talking nonsense, gave up the noble image of Her Royal Highness the princess, and shouted at the top of her voice: "Ignition!" ”
This was the Jedi's chance to fight back, and it was also the only chance for the Hami army, and one of the centurions of the Hami army who received the order was very excited, and immediately grabbed the torch and rushed to the other side of the trench, he wanted to burn all the Uighur dog thieves who had made them suffer so much into a roast suckling pig.
Although the Uighurs knew that their end was coming, they continued to resist out of the instinct of survival, and several archers saw the centurion rushing to the side of the trench with torches, and without waiting for the commander's order, they fired indiscriminately, turning the centurion into a hedgehog and the torch fell to the ground.
However, this was their battle of trapped beasts, and the Hami army quickly prepared rockets and shot them into the trenches in rows, in fact, according to the amount of oil in the trenches, as long as one rocket was fired in, the Uighurs could be declared dead, but the Hami army hated them so much that they fired a bunch of rockets, as if to vent their anger through the flames that soared into the sky.
