Section 855 Attack on the city of Abadan
In the past, even if the Tang army landed in the city, the defenders of Abadan City would immediately launch a counter-charge, chanting religious slogans and treating death as home, so that even after the Tang army landed in the city, it would be difficult to hold it, and they would be driven down.

This time it was very different, although the defenders of Abadan City were still fierce, but their spirits were much worse!
They just fought mechanically, with deep despair in their eyes!
The collapse of the navy yesterday hit them hard, they knew that there would be no more reinforcements from Damascus, and the support that had been for a long time suddenly broke and was already overwhelmed by the attack of the Don army, which made them collapse.
Everything seemed to fall into place, and the Great Food Army was extremely tenacious before, but today it was like pushing a broken door, kicking hard, and it fell.
The collapse of the enemy army was much faster than everyone could imagine, and soon, the battle turned into a one-sided slaughter, and the Great Food Army scattered and fled for their lives, ignoring orders.
Khalid was so anxious that he jumped to his feet: "There is no way back, where can I escape!" ”
He tried to fight back, but found that fewer and fewer people obeyed his command, and the Tang army became extremely vicious, and their attacks were so powerful that they seemed to be able to kill them no matter how they wanted.
Khalid, who went up to the western city wall, could not stand directly against him, and his foothold was unstable, so he laid down the city wall and gave it to him!
The Tang army, which occupied almost all the city walls, immediately shot arrows under the city, carried portable trebuchets and bed crossbows to the city, and poured bullets under the city more accurately, and at the same time! Immediately the troops went down to the city and advanced in depth.
Many of the officers are veterans, galloping forward, and they just thrust forward! Slam in!
We have a large number of troops, and the enemy behind us is handed over to our brothers!
For a while, there were shouts of killing, and at first the big cannibals resisted bravely, but as the shouts of the Tang people sounded everywhere in the city, the big cannibals were terrified.
The Tang army kept firing arrows and bullets in the city, and the city was full of burning flames, and there were more and more Tang troops in the lower city, and in the fire in the city, countless running foot soldiers seemed to be running in the fire. Cut the Great Food Army to pieces, killing corpses all over the city, and bleeding all over the ditch.
The killing was extremely messy, no one knew which people were on the battlefield, they were all running around, the soldiers could not find the officers who should be in charge of the headquarters, the officers were leading troops they did not know, anyway, the soldiers followed when they saw the commander.
Unlike other domestic troops, although Wei Xi's army used the imperial court's military rank system as usual, it added corresponding military rank epaulettes, including:
Great General, three gold stars;
General, two-star Venus.
Zhonglang General, a Venus.
The general is a general-level officer, and compared to the military rank, the status of the lieutenant general has been promoted (previously its status was lower than that of the Shangfu Zhichong Commander).
Zhichong Duwei: two bars and four silver stars (Shangfu);
Zhichong Duwei: two bars and three silver stars (Zhongfu);
Fold Chong Duwei, two bars and two silver stars (Xiafu);
Shangfu Guoyi is the captain of the city, two bars and one silver star.
Zhongfu Guoyi Duwei, one bar and three bronze stars.
Xiafu Guoyi Duwei, one bar and two bronze stars.
The deputy of the town, the general of the town, a bar and a bronze star.
Zhu Zhe Chongfu Brigade Marshal, three copper dollars.
Team positive: two copper dollars.
Fire Length: One copper dollar.
The appearance of epaulettes of military ranks, quantifying the level of military rank, is clear at a glance, and the benefits for command are beyond doubt.
Whoever has the greatest official position will be the commander, and he will act vigorously and resolutely.
The Tang army was like a mad tiger, killing men when they saw them, but they let women go.
An hour after the destruction of the wall of Abadan, the sound of joy resounded in the sky, it was the Tang army digging open the south gate closed by mud and stones, and the Tang army rushed in!
Infantry, horses, all came, and poured along the roads to all parts of the city, and the fall of the city of Abadan was inevitable,
Despite this, Khaled, the defender of Abadan, still made his last effort, and said to the soldiers: "As long as you kill the enemy, you can ascend to the heaven/hall and become a warrior, and we will see you in the heaven/hall!" ”
Everyone said: "See you in the sky/hall!" ”
Khalid led his army to set up a formation on the street of the city lord's palace in the center of the city, and ordered Abdullah to guard the street by Xiao, and led his men and horses to ambush in the alleys on the side. It is planned to lure the enemy deep with the side, and the ambush soldiers will kill from the flank, attack from both sides, and play a tactical match.
This Abdullah is quite brave, and he can kill the lion tiger with a single P, and he is famous in the army.
Soon after, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the cavalry of the Tang Army arrived, swarming like a swarm, without the slightest march, rushing wildly in a chaotic manner. Since it was the main road, the street was paved with smooth thick stones, and the iron hooves were louder on the hard ground, and the ears were buzzing.
The cavalry of the Tang Army looked at the spearmen in the dense phalanx in front, and the officers in front actually had three gold stars on their shoulders, this is the level of a general, it is Yang Chengxian who rushed to participate in the battle!
He lifted his hand, reined in his horses, and the horsemen who followed him stopped all their horses.
Originally, they were very fast, and they stopped when they said they wanted, showing extremely high riding skills.
The officer didn't say a word, took out his bow and arrows and shot them!
The other sergeants immediately followed, and for a moment the arrows were like flying locusts, and the spearmen were shot to the ground one after another!
The screams were loud, and the big food army without a shield shot them, and the big food army with a shield didn't have time to rejoice, so they saw someone in the middle of the Tang army take a few black "hand bullets", light them and throw them over.
Falling into the crowd, the strong pungent smell made the big cannibal cough violently, tears and snot flowing together.
It was a hand-thrown version of the chemical bomb, which made it difficult for the Great Food Army to form a formation, and the Tang Army took the opportunity to bow and arrow again to wash the rain, and another batch of Great Food Army fell.
Abdullah was furious when he saw the situation, and he bravely slapped his horse and took that Yang Chengxian directly, but saw a white-haired old servant turn out of his back, and he didn't say a word, and he was an arrow to see Abdullah!
"Peng!" The strong wind blew Yang Chengxian's cloak up, and the strength of the arrow could be seen.
Abdullah was alert and raised his shield to block, "Poof! With a soft sound, the cowhide shield was like a piece of paper, and it couldn't stop the arrows at all, piercing through the two layers of heavy armor that Abdullah was wearing, and shooting into his chest!
His hand grasped the tail of the arrow, stared in disbelief for a moment, and then fell off his horse.
The white-haired old servant didn't even look at him, as if he had completed a trivial job, and retracted back behind Yang Chengxian, which was extremely cool!
The old servant of Wei Xi's family, the uncle Bolza, the archer excavated from Tubo, was lent to Yang Chengxian for use.
His bow and arrow make it superb, and he said that he would never shoot the right eye when shooting a person in the left eye a hundred steps away, which was very powerful.
His own brave general was killed by an arrow like this?
Don't even have a chance to kill the enemy and become a warrior?
Khalid was so grieved and indignant that he raised his knife and shouted, "Kill! "Attack with a scimitar in both hands.
They rushed out of the alleys on both sides, "Hehe, the rats have run out of their holes!" Yang Chengxian said excitedly: "Kill them all for me!" ”
Tang cavalry hit the Great Food Army, and the Iron Cavalry rushed into the enemy army and trampled on them, and after a while, the Great Food Army was scattered, and the soldiers were scattered.
Khalid led the crowd to rush forward desperately, and the confusion was overwhelmed, but he was condescendingly slaughtered by the cavalry. Even if it is a knight who has fallen from the horse, it is extremely difficult to kill, everyone has a first-class plate armor, and the sharp weapon does not pierce the plate armor without a little force, and it is even more difficult to break the armor when chopping, and it is appropriate to rebound.
The arrows in the air were non-stop, and the accuracy was extremely high, and they were killed when they were hit by Tang Qi.
Khaled's men suffered heavy losses, and he had to fight and retreat, eventually retreating to the city lord's palace.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the sound of resistance of the Great Food Army became more and more, and finally the Tang Army surrounded the City Lord's Mansion, which was the last resistance center of the Great Food Army.
