Chapter 36: The Stubborn Resistance of Wen Ping
But said that after Wen Ping was defeated back to Wancheng, he immediately ordered the whole city to enter a wartime state, go all out to prepare for war, and set up all kinds of protective facilities, although he began to strengthen the city wall and build various city defense facilities after accepting the entire Nanyang County, but after all, the time is relatively short, with the current Wancheng city defense, if you want to resist the mysterious army, Wen Ping does not have much hope, but since his lord handed over Nanyang County to himself, he will defend desperately and swear to live and die with the city!
"Even if I really can't keep it, I will make the thief army pay enough price!" Looking at the sergeants who were busy coming and going, Wen Ping's heart was as resolute as iron, and he gritted his teeth and said softly. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
At this moment, I only heard the smoke and dust billowing in front of me, and then I saw a group of men and horses coming to the city, and then I saw a general shouting to the city: "Where is Wenpin?" Do you dare to fight with me? ”
Wen Ping's eyes glared at Xian Yuyin hatefully, and then said: "Xian Yuyin, with your little ability, there is no need to show off in front of me, you want to fight with me, wait until you climb to my city first, let's talk about it, don't talk nonsense, my Wen Ping will not be like you as a reckless man." ”
"Haha, you also know that you are not my opponent, so use this to prevaricate." Xian Yuyin went out of the city to fight in order to provoke Wen, so his words were full of sarcasm.
However, Wen Ping was not fooled, and said with a faint smile: "Xian Yuyin, you don't have to dig out your mind and try your best to provoke me, my Wen Ping will not be as stupid as you, you will be fooled easily, you can rest assured, this time you shout your throat, I will not go out of the city to fight, you really have the ability, you send your cavalry to attack my city." ”
Xian Yuyin naturally wouldn't be so stupid, as a cavalry general, he naturally knew that the cavalry was not good at attacking cities, how could he agree? What's more, his task this time is mainly to scold the formation, not to siege the city, how could he, who has just received a lesson, not grow his brain and get hot-headed when he is provoked?
Therefore, Xian Yuyin scolded for a while, but seeing that it didn't have any effect, he had to give up.
At this time, Guo Jia, who was watching this scene not far away, nodded, and said to Liu He: "The lord judged correctly before, this Wen Ping is really a wise and brave general, and he can stay calm at the critical moment, such a character is not easy to deal with, but when we have no choice but to take a strong attack, otherwise, once it is delayed for a long time, if we do not enter the city defense to further strengthen it, even Liu Biao will send reinforcements, and at that time, I am afraid that we will really fall short." ”
"In that case, then we have no choice but to force the attack." Less than the last step, in fact, Liu He didn't want to do this, because it would mean that even if he could capture Wancheng, he would suffer a lot of losses.
But there was no way now, Liu He gritted his teeth and immediately ordered the siege of the city.
All of a sudden, I saw the soldiers sweeping towards the city like a tide, some of these soldiers carried the ladder, put the ladder on the head of the city, and then climbed up, and some carried the heavy giant trees, and struggled to rush the city gate.
But he didn't expect Wen Ping to be very calm, and he led his soldiers to launch a stubborn resistance at the head of the city.
For those who climbed the city wall, they smashed down with stones, rolling logs and other things, and many soldiers could not dodge, and fell to the city after being hit, and broke their tendons and fractures by luck, and those who were unlucky fell directly to death.
There were also some soldiers defending the city who came to the female wall, and pushed the ladder away, and the ladder fell to the ground, and the soldiers who besieged the city fell from above, and they were all injured and died.
In addition, the archers at the head of the city were also constantly shooting arrows, which not only caused many casualties, but also suppressed their own archers, bringing great difficulties to the support of the city.
In addition to the cavalry, most of the soldiers under Liu He's command were bandits and civilians, and they were not very good at siege, and now their own army was suppressed, and it was even more difficult to continue.
At this time, the soldiers who were responsible for hitting the city gate were also suppressed by the local archers, and more than a dozen people died, and the rest of the people could no longer lift the giant tree, but were shot dead by the enemy soldiers on the city tower because of the exposure of the target.
"It's hateful, the enemy guards are also very tenacious!" Liu He gritted his teeth, annoyed, and then asked Guo Jiadao: "Military Division, do we have any other way to break the city?" ”
Guo Jia said with a wry smile: "It's just a matter of filling the river with soil, piling up dirt mountains, and then using the height advantage to suppress the enemy's archers, but our army is not much, plus nearly one-third of them are cavalry, even if they can suppress the archers, when they climb to the top of the city, they can only be besieged by the enemy's superior forces, and when necessary, the general in the army can only personally lead the troops into battle." ”
"That's all there is to say, the order goes down, the army pauses the attack, and orders the soldiers to fill the river with soil, pile up dirt mountains, and suppress the enemy's archers first."
Liu He sighed and said slowly.
As Mingjin's voice sounded, the soldiers slowly withdrew, but in the process, many people were still attacked by the bows and arrows of the defenders of the city, and the casualties were not light.
After the soldiers were assembled, Liu He reorganized his troops and horses, counted the number of people, and found that more than 1,300 people had been injured in this round of siege, and he couldn't help but feel sad.
Seeing this, Guo Jia hurriedly persuaded: "The lord doesn't have to be like this, after going to the battlefield, how can there be immortals?" Fighting a war is a matter of life and death. What's more, our people are not dead in vain, after this battle, the city defenders lost at least thirty percent, and the enemy soldiers also lost five or six hundred people, although we suffered more damage, but this is normal, after all, the defenders of the city do have an advantage. However, the enemy army is small, and these five or six hundred people are already equivalent to one-fifth of them, and I believe that if we attack a few more times, we will definitely be able to take Wancheng before Liu Biao's reinforcements arrive. ”
Liu He nodded and said: "Actually, I also know that the so-called success will be successful, and the people who fight are actually people, as long as we fill it with our lives, we will definitely be able to capture Wancheng, but this kind of loss is really not what we want to bear." ”
"One will make ten thousand bones dry?" Guo Jia was stunned when he heard this, chewed on this sentence slowly, and sighed softly after a while: "Yes, this is a good point, how many people only think about meritorious service and reward when they fight, but they ignore the existence of the soldiers, and just regard the soldiers as a tool to seek fame for them. ”
At this time, I only heard the system voice sound again: "Ding! Liu Ye's loyalty has risen to 100, Guo Jia's loyalty has risen to 100, congratulations to the master for using his own charm to increase the loyalty of quasi-super-first-class talents to 100, and reward charm value of 1 point, now the master master has 54 strength, 51 intelligence, 52 internal affairs, and 79 ...... charm"
