Chapter 17: Attacking Wuzhong
Throughout the ages, there have been many ways to siege cities, such as fire, flooding, food cut-off, tunneling, and combining inside and outside......
Xiang Ji chose the most difficult kind - strong attack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It stands to reason that it is easy for hundreds of people in rough clothes to infiltrate tens of thousands of large cities, and it is not difficult for the county guard to make trouble once, as long as you are fully prepared, it is simply a logical thing to capture and kill Yin Tong, just like Xiang Liang "once" did.
Why should it be easier than easy?
Because Xiang Ji's goal is not the city in front of him, his real purpose is behind him, the battle flag with black characters on a red background is waving in the wind, which is different from the Qin people's Xuanniao eggs, and the word "Chu" is like a phoenix nirvana.
The Chu people want to be reborn, just like the phoenix wants to be bloody, a country that has been dead for ten years needs a great victory that shocks the whole world to announce its resurrection......
I have heard that the siege of three is missing one, and the siege of the city is the siege of one and the lack of three.
That's how Yin Tong still didn't dare to relax, he knew very well how much appeal the red pole had, and the guys who dared to put up flags outside the city were not worried, and they were afraid that the people's hearts would float and colluding inside and outside.
A few people dared to speak out about attacking the city, and thousands of sergeants waited for it, and the scene was ridiculous, because Yin Daishou, who had just taken office, needed time to screen.
A few days passed in a flash, and the news came back.
The army in the city is strictly guarded, and there is no change in the private soldiers of several large families......
The origin of the stragglers outside the city was clarified, it was a group of water thieves from the five lakes, and it was inconvenient for the army to clear it, so it was left to this day......
The surrounding counties have been explored, but there are no reinforcements from the other side......
The young man headed by the Chu general Xiang Yan is infinitely powerful......
After listening to all the reports, Yin Tong breathed a long sigh of relief and made a big fuss! Counted with his fingers, as if there was no reason why he couldn't take the other party?
The high-headed horse is eye-catching, and the bright armor attracts all the eyes of the city, the eyes of no one in his eyes, and the momentum of pointing his nose and shouting at the array, all of which add up, but it makes Yin Tong even more disdainful - what is it that is young and vigorous, what is it to show off with the family background of his father and ancestors? !
After the city gate was opened, a group of black-clothed sergeants poured out with drums and horns, Xiang Ji pointed his halberd to the sky, shook the red background twice, and hundreds of Chu troops behind him contracted their formations and slowly stepped forward.
They are indeed few people, who is the score, starting from riding the wind and waves, these people have seen Xiang Ji alone break through thousands of troops, have seen the Ding weapon smashed to the ground and shake the mountain, a kind of leader invincible belief has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Confidence is a very strange thing, it can be contagious, and it dares to let the rabbit chase the wolf, a group of guys who are tigers and wolves, and they are resolute in the face of several times the enemy.
Yin Tong is still sitting at the head of the city, and the black clothes under the city have already formed a formation, it is really strange, the opposite side actually does not run? They don't think a hundred people can fight thousands, do they?
Hand raised, orders passed, and the drumbeat changed to guide the army, Yin Tong's caution had been polished with patience, and he believed that under Qin's crossbow, the news of Wu County's attack was about to turn into good news.
"String ββ!"
Xiang Ji was faster than the Qin army, and Zhan Ge Linli only let him glance at it, taking advantage of the Qin people's momentum, he lowered his body, and shouted with a black horseββ! β
The war horse kicked fast, the voice was very dull, and the running black horse was very similar to a giant beast in the wilderness, and the snow-white hooves were dazzling.
"Lookββ!
The one-handed dancing dragon halberd is getting faster and faster, and the "woo" wind trembles when I hear it, and I know that the person who comes is not good when I hear it.
Yin Tong moved his head to the back: "This person is the Chu general Xiang Yan?" β
Standing at the head of the city, no more than face to face, the Changshi was a little bolder, bowed down and replied: "It's him, the former county guard Li Tian worshiped this person and was convicted, and the Taishou must not be careless." β
"Li Junshou is defenseless, how can he compare with me? There was a big fuss that year, was this person also besieged like this? β
Changshi hesitated for a moment, and finally fulfilled his responsibility: "Yin Taishou, this person once lifted hundreds of catties of stone tripods when he was young, and he just killed thousands of people and walked away, and now he is old, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to take ......"
Yin Tong's gesture changed slightly, and the drum horn was three points faster.
"Shoot ββ!"
"Whoosh-"
"Wind - Gale ββ!"
The crossbowman who shot an arrow stepped back and hung his strings, and the soldiers holding the war warriors pressed forward, and the dark clouds that rose into the sky were like torrential rain, falling towards the galloping men and horses.
Xiang Ji shouted violently, waved his halberd with both hands and controlled the horse, stunned to make the sound of the wind unable to splash in, and with the first scream, countless crossbow arrows were knocked away with the endless clanging of ears.
Yin Tong stood up suddenly, his eyes were wide in disbelief, and the halberd under the city was not slow at all, that is to say...... That kid wasn't hurt?
How is this possible! Thousands of crossbow arrows are bundled into bundles thicker than a person's waist, and they can be spread on the ground even if they are scattered.
No one dared to think of it like that, because those who dared to do so were all dry bones.
But today there is an exception......
"Shoot again!"
The drum beat also started suddenly after a slight stop, and with a call for "strings", the city once again sounded a tooth-sore creak, this time Yin Tong couldn't take his eyes off it, and waved his arms fiercely, and the dark clouds were much thinner.
Xiang Ji is closer, this distance is not every crossbowman can grasp, compared to the projectile just now, this flat shot is a greater threat to the black horse, the reins are tightened, Xiang Ji rushed forward with this inertia, only protecting the black brother behind him.
Yin Tong saw clearly this time, the crossbow arrows were not missed, but there were no ones that could be shot through, the descendants of the Xiang clan were wearing treasure armor, and the bronze arrows could not leave a mark at all, and the clanging arrows were not only knocked away, but also many of them hit the scale armor and fell to the ground.
"What's that? Did this person wear it last time he made a fuss? β
Changshi was also stunned, because Qin crossbow had swept the world for many years, and he had never heard that he could not make meritorious contributions without breaking armor.
"I ask you! What kind of armor is that?! β
"Taishou...... This one...... How did the lower officials know, perhaps...... Is that the Xiang family heirloom? β
"Nonsense, if the Xiang family had this treasure armor, why did Xiang Yan die in battle back then! Check, check! β
The distance of a charge is not long, and a charge of the black horse is even shorter, the Qin army can no longer avoid the two shots, Xiang Ji rushed into the Qin army formation, the halberd chopping and picking thorns never stopped, from the city, the black sergeant is like a grain of sand, being grabbed and thrown away.
"Taishou...... This...... This ......"
Yin Tong also understands a little bit of military strategy, and when he saw this, he didn't panic, and steadily passed the order: "The remnants of the Xiang family are not forgiven, and some people who have been killed have been promoted to three lords in a row, and they will be injured for 100 yuan!" β
The tiger enters the flock, the real tiger enters the flock, when the distance is opened, the Qin army is an invincible wolf warrior, and now it is broken in, and it can't stop the battle of Xiang Ji, and the crossbowman is chased without the power to fight back.
A good opportunity should not be missed, the Chu army saw that the situation was close to follow, Situ Yi glanced a few times, found that the distance between the city head was too far, sighed, and continued to shoot arrows at will to cover.
Fan Hao is good at using long knives, and his body like a mountain is powerful, don't look at him fat, he is a flexible fat man, a few back and forth has been covered in blood, looking at the laughing appearance, just like the usual slaughter of dogs.
However, there were too many Qin troops, and after a short period of panic, they immediately returned to their elite nature, fighting with spears to cover, crossbowmen slowly withdrew, and the long soldiers who had the advantage began to cooperate.
A spear quietly poked out, Fan Hao didn't notice it, just as the vest was about to pierce it, the long sword rose up with blue light, cutting off the spearhead still more than powerful, and splashing scarlet when swinging.
"Lao Fan, you take it easy, rush so fiercely, think you are Xiang Yuna?"
Fan Xu turned his head and smiled: "What's the matter, Xiang Yu is smaller than me, he is so ruthless, I can do it!" β
"It's not comparable, you don't have his strength, you don't have the bright light armor, the battlefield has no eyes, be careful!"
"I found out, people who have become relatives are not simple, Ji Bu, you are endless, how good it is to kill two people with more mouths......"
Ji Bu slashed down with a fierce sword: "What do you know about this bachelor, this has not delayed Lao Tzu's work!" β
This is right, Fan Hao is like being stepped on by the tail, the momentum of the long knife slashing is even more irreversible, and the Qin army surrounding him is all unlucky.
Yin Tong's brows furrowed deeply, he had never thought that this thief army was so fierce, aside from the talented descendants of the Xiang clan, none of the leaders were easy to deal with.
The fat man's long knife is powerful and heavy, and the longbowstring of the little white face never misses, and what is even more terrifying is that there is a completely crazy one over there, and it will be the same move for hundreds of people, and it is still the same for ordinary soldiers, and I don't know what kind of grudge and grudge, but I actually make desperate moves.
Yin Tong can see that these guys are not low, they can only probe a little from the blade, the battlefield fighting is different from private fighting, while paying attention to cooperation, one inch long and one inch strong is the most reasonable.
There are few long soldiers in the weapons of the people on the opposite side, and they are all swords that are rarely seen on the battlefield, which is the difference between a ranger and a general......
"Close the gates, lift the drawbridge!"
