In the more important cities, between the outermost city wall and the inner city, there will inevitably be an urn city to protect the people in the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoSometimes, once the walls are breached, the urn will become a new battlefield for attack and defense, where the defenders will build a line of defense and make a last resort.

Generally speaking, however, once the outer walls have been breached, the inner walls, which are much lower and weaker than the outer walls, may not really be able to resist enemy attacks, but are more likely to serve as a delay, so that the people of the city can get out of the city, or the other armies in the city to be fully prepared for street fighting. Very few people can really repel the enemy soldiers against the inner walls, and naturally few people will deliberately guard against the defense line of this city.

But obviously, the situation of the offensive and defensive battle of Guilin this time was very different from the previous ones, and it was only after the introduction of those native soldiers into the city that the defenders really showed their fangs. After seeing this scene, the native soldiers under the city also clearly felt that the situation was not good, and they all crossed their swords in front of them, looking ready to fight the enemy at any time.

However, the defenders above the urn city had no intention of engaging them head-on, and as the leader waved his hand fiercely, the sound of bowstrings and feathered arrows breaking through the air quickly joined together, and countless arrows with flaming light rained down on the crowd below.

But even so, although those toasts were a little shocked in their hearts, they did not feel too much despair, even if they were tricked and trapped in the city, even if the enemy had already prepared and occupied the geographical advantage, but after all, they had too much advantage in terms of troops, as long as they blocked a few rounds of shooting and desperately moved forward, it was still possible to counterattack. What's more, they have no enemies behind them, and even if they are not good, they still have a way out.

Many of the native soldiers had similar thoughts, brandishing their knives and slashing at the locust-like arrows.

But then, an unexpected change happened. The arrows that were obviously supposed to be directed at them were not directed at them, but were fired at close range or fell farther behind, though some of them were quickly blocked by the natives, and did little damage to them.

This made the local soldiers stunned, could it be that the defenders in the city were so capable that they couldn't even aim at themselves at such a distance?

As soon as they got together, they were dispelled by the events that followed. I saw that after those arrows with fire fell to the ground, there was a strange sound of flooding, and then a fire rose on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, dazzling fires appeared, and quickly expanded, connecting into one piece, and burning in the urn city at an incredible speed. The soldiers who were in the fire immediately let out a series of exclamations, and hurriedly took off to dodge, but there was fire all around him, and no matter how much he dodged and moved, he could not dodge, and finally he could only be burned by the fire and screamed in pain, and then fell into the raging flames.

In just a short moment, the urn city has been completely covered by this sudden flame, countless local soldiers screamed and fell to the ground, even those respective leaders can't care about anything else at the moment, can only desperately dodge to the place where there is no fire, but obviously everyone thinks so, including the people who have been on fire on their bodies, so the two sides collided in one place, so that the people who did not catch fire were also quickly infected with flames.

The screams were continuous, and everywhere there were local soldiers who were scurrying around and rolling on the ground. Some people wanted to reflexively run back and escape from this flaming hell, but they were already covered by flames behind them, and they had almost no way to retreat, and only by wading through the flaming mountain with their bodies could they have a chance to get out.

At the same time, the defenders of the city did not stand and watch, but they moved again, and countless rolling logs and stones that had been prepared fell down like raindrops, and the native soldiers, who had no heart to resist, were only beaten to the ground. In addition, many people lifted the clay pots one by one and threw them down like stones.

In the sound of the crockpot cracking, the screams below were even louder. Because the clay pot was filled with oil, the power of adding fuel to the fire was naturally even more difficult for the soldiers below to accept.

Although the enemy was outnumbered, with only one or two thousand men facing tens of thousands of native soldiers, this time, the defenders were completely reaping the reapers above and constantly cleaning up the native soldiers below who could not even protect themselves, watching them be swallowed by the flames one by one, and finally became a charred corpse. This made a lot of hearts bloom, and finally let out a big breath of anger that had been suppressed and beaten for nearly a month.

And Xiao Duo, who commanded everyone at the head of the city to constantly smash everything that had been prepared earlier, in addition to the pleasure of killing the enemy and the joy of victory, he also had a lot of admiration for Yang Zhen, who had set up this plan for himself. Originally, it was just the simplest strategy of luring the enemy deep and closing the door and beating the dog, but he evolved into such a Shura slaughterhouse that could easily kill the enemy without fighting back.

It turned out that in the watchtower at the head of the city before, Xiao Duo gave the idea of showing the enemy weakness, giving up the outer wall to let the enemy in, and then setting up an ambush in the urn city to defeat the enemy army through attacks up and down.

In this regard, Yang Zhen quickly came up with a more suitable strategy. One of them is to take advantage of the inner lines of the Miao Zhuang tribes in the city, as well as the bad intentions of the White Lotus Sect thieves who still want to create chaos in the city, to lure the enemies outside the city to easily climb over the wall. In fact, the fire that lit up the sky in the city before was just a batch of firewood collected by several officials and lit it near the granary, pretending that the granary was on fire.

As for the thieves who wanted to set fire to the granary in the city, in fact, when they approached the granary at night, they had already been taken by the good men of the brocade guards who had been ambushed there early. At this moment, these people were still a little confused looking at the pile of firewood that was gradually extinguishing and did not know what to do.

After making this arrangement to lure the enemy into depth, Yang Zhen proposed a further strategy with Xiao Duo. Since the enemy army is large, we should use everything we can use, in addition to the geographical advantage, we can also lay a bigger trap to make it difficult for them to turn over.

So, in the previous few days, Xiao Duo sprinkled all the remaining fire oil in the city defense battle on the ground of the urn city, and covered it with some firewood and grass. In this way, as soon as the enemy enters the urn city, they will completely fall into the trap, as long as the people in the city release rockets, they can quickly ignite the arrangement on the ground, so that the native soldiers are deep in flames, and completely lose the possibility of struggling to survive.

Now, everything happened according to Yang Zhen's expectations, surrounded by the flames, the native soldiers had nowhere to hide, nowhere to go, they could only jump around like ants on a hot pot, and as a result, more people were pulled into the fire together, and they had completely lost the ability to fight again.

Seeing that the fire was weakening little by little over time, Xiao Duo immediately issued the next order: "The whole army is ready to attack, first use crossbowmen to continue to clean up the rebel forces under the city, and as soon as the others wait for the fire to be extinguished, they will go out of the city to attack the enemy!" ”

"Whoa!" All the soldiers agreed in unison, and the momentum was extraordinary.

Seeing that the enemy was burned by a fire so easily, the morale of the soldiers naturally reached an unprecedented peak, and there was no longer the slightest fear before, and some were only determined to kill the enemy and defend the city.

Just as the native soldiers in the urn city finally survived the fire, and many of the deadly people stood up in embarrassment from the pile of corpses of their fellow robes, the originally closed inner city gate burst open, and more than 2,000 defenders were already screaming and rushing towards them.

At the same time, a rain of arrows fell from the city, knocking down the native soldiers who were still in a state of panic. Immediately, the defenders of the city also killed, without any politeness and mercy, and the head and face were slashed and stabbed with a knife, so that the local soldiers who had just escaped the fire had no power to fight back, and fell to the ground and died.

Seeing that the general trend had passed, these native soldiers, as well as the leaders who could not see their identities clearly, suddenly thought of something, and then ignored the defenders who were killing behind them, turned around, and rushed towards the city gate behind them. When most of the centaurs had already been damaged, and the rest of the people had already broken their guts, the only thing they could think of was the idea of escaping.

But the defenders, who had been holding their breath before, would not let go of such an opportunity to beat the water dogs, and they didn't need anyone to command, so they chased after the native soldiers and killed them. Suddenly, the two groups of people chased and fled, and from time to time the local soldiers who were caught up because of injuries were cut down and killed by the officers and soldiers.

By the time the soldiers ran up the city along the road they had just entered, hundreds of survivors had already died under the swords of the officers. And when they came to the city, something made them want to cry without tears was placed in front of them - there were only a few tools they could use to get out of the city, whether it was a ladder or a rope, which was still hanging outside at the moment, and if they wanted to turn over, their movements would be slower, which naturally gave the defenders in hot pursuit a chance.

But at this time, they obviously can't care about anything else, only such a way to save their lives, so take a gamble and fight. So the soldiers stopped looking at the officers and soldiers who had come up with great slaughter, and turned around and climbed over the wall, trying to find the rope of the ladder that could save them.

Among them, some of them were lucky enough to take the opportunity to slip down the city, but more of them were unlucky enough to fall down the city, and some of them were even killed by the officers and soldiers who arrived later because of the competition between several people for ropes and ladders.

In this battle, inside and outside the urn city, above and below the city, there were as many as seven or eight thousand native soldiers who fell, and only less than a thousand lucky native soldiers were able to escape. And the result of this battle finally reversed the situation of the offensive and defensive battle of the entire Guilin City, and even the entire battle situation in Guangxi was deeply affected by this battle......
