Chapter 349: Non-Sichuan Grass (6)

: I grabbed the manuscript hard, and the chapter name was wrong, forgive me. Let's see if we can make a small explosion today, so that everyone can continue to have a good time. But it's impossible to be as crazy as yesterday. After a report, the manuscript of the chapter of Lao Wu is gone, and it can only be passed on now. Ask for a ticket again, support it, and let Lao Wu stay on the homepage for a few more days.

============

Many people are puzzled that Li Guang is about to be beheaded in history, what a good general.

However, in practice, if the war is delayed, it may lead to a fatal threat. If Li Wei and Qi Ming were delayed, this time Li Jinxing had no gain except for killing more than 1,000 Tubo soldiers, and finally had to obediently retreat to the Jishi Army. If Li Jinxing misses the date, that ...... I can't even think of the consequences.

This delay is not only late, sometimes early, but also a delay.

The scope of the battle was very large, from the Jishi Army to the Heixia River, Momen Road, and the Da Momen area, all the way to Quxi, and then to the Hongji Bridge, almost along the entire river meandering in a big circle. Although the scope is not as large as Li Guang's, the time of cooperation can be more precise. Moreover, each road in the middle has to divide the troops, divide and merge, and the difficulty of the requirements is higher. Li Wei turned over the soldiers of the entire Tang Dynasty camp, and only three people could fit it, Hei Tooth Changzhi, Li Jinxing, and Qi Biming, but they couldn't all be brought, and one person must be left to attract the attention of Zanpo.

So he brought Qi Ming, cooperated with Li Jinxing, and launched a second campaign.

Seeing the smoke and dust rising, Li Jinxing still did not move, the sky was getting brighter, the gauzy-like mist was waving in the space, and the scenery of Hongji Bridge in the early morning was very charming. But Li Jinxing's thousands of men and horses were all on alert. At this time, there were several loud horns of different lengths in the distance, like the sky, cutting through the heavy fog.

"The horn echoes!" Li Jin said excitedly.

Whether or not Hongji Bridge and Wansu City can be captured is not mentioned, the important generals of the entire Qinghai are worried about the prince. But the benefits are obvious, not only the party is convinced, but all the soldiers are also convinced, and the morale is at its peak.

"Woo!"

The clear sound of the horn passed through the beautiful morning light, through the green mountains and green mountains, and through the surging river, with hope and joy, and the two were far away.

"The prince has won a great victory!" The old general ran around all night, but at this moment, the strength of his whole body surged up again, brandished his horizontal knife and said: "Brothers, prepare to attack the city!" ”

All 7,000 soldiers came out of the camp, armed with weapons and instruments, and pressed towards the city.

"The shieldman strikes, the crossbowman follows, the trebuchet prepares the gunpowder, and the knife man and the spearman take cover." One after another, orders were given, and one phalanx after another pressed towards the city.

"Light the gunpowder and put it!"

There are not many trebuchets with them, only a few. In fact, now this primitive weapon will be of great help to the war, but it cannot reach the point of left and right. Small trebuchets are easy to carry, but the projection distance is short, and the lethality is not great. If you bring a large trebuchet, the lethality and range are enough, and it is inconvenient to carry, and it is not convenient to operate during use, and the large trebuchet needs dozens of people to operate before it can make the stone projectile thrown out.

In addition, it is expensive to build and easy to damage. In terms of cost performance alone, it is not as cost-effective as a bow and crossbow. Until now, there have even been cases where the gunpowder bag was not thrown out because the trebuchet was damaged, so the soldiers had to take the risk of picking it up and throwing it far away to make it explode. But there is a large amount of iron beads and thistles running through it, which will accidentally injure their own soldiers. Of course, it's not useless, individual lethality and gunpowder bags cooperate, far more than the bow and arrow, the shock force is far more than the bow and arrow, fighting on the plateau, the cold winter is coming, the quality of steel is very problematic now, there is good steel, what is 100 steel, the big cannibal also has a set of advanced smelting technology, but you can think of good steel, the cost is too high, and you can't afford to be armed. Therefore, in winter, the effectiveness of bows and arrows on the plateau will be greatly reduced. However, although the trebuchet was easily damaged, the powder bag was not greatly affected.

Several gunpowder packets were thrown into the city, and there was a scream.

The sentinels stood on the tower, could see the city, and killed several people, but two missed. I told the approximate meaning in the flag language. At this time, the defenders at the head of the city had already begun to exchange fire with the Tang troops below the city walls, and each had been killed and wounded.

Li Jinxing ordered again: "The three armies retreated forty paces, cut the fuse of gunpowder short, and threw it over the city. ”

A few more gunpowder packets flew up, because the fuses were cut short, and some began to explode before they reached the city, some flew over the city before exploding, but some exploded over the city. It couldn't kill people like this, but a large number of iron balls and thistles burst out, like small bullets, and pierced through the defenders of the city.

Some of them were blocked by the armor, and some of them penetrated forcefully through the gaps in the armor or through the face and neck, killing few people and injuring many soldiers.

Li Jinxing shouted again: "Put it again!" ”

After the three rounds of gunpowder were released, the city was full of sorrow.

Li Jinxing said again: "Attack! ”

The bloody siege began.

……

Hongji City is not unfortunate, but it has been abandoned for a long time, when Ronzanpo realized that the Tang Dynasty was fierce this time, and began to value this place, the time was too short, and he only had time to strengthen and repair the city wall, and the annihilated moat outside the city did not have time to dredge.

But with Li Jinxing's 7,000 people, and because he moved forward lightly, there were few light siege equipment, and if he wanted to take it down, there were fewer defenders in the city, and it was still very difficult.

But the smoke and dust in Hexi finally rolled up, and Yifu Binggen was killed and covered his head, and this chase was nearly ninety miles away, and when he came to Hongji Bridge, there were only seventy or eighty people around. Most of them were killed by the Tang Dynasty in the pursuit, and some of them did not know where they fled to.

Like a lost dog, he shouted, "Open the gates, open the gates." ”

Yi Fu Lou bowl was about to shout to open the city gate, and then a group of Tang Dynasty horseback rode through the mist like a fierce beast, chasing after him. At the head of the pack was a strong black man, carrying a lance, and shouted, "The thief is gone." ”

He hurriedly shouted, "The gates are open, the gates are open." ”

The city wall on the east side was being tested by the Tang Dynasty troops, and once these Tang Dynasty troops entered the city, Hongji City would be easy to defend in the blink of an eye. Seeing that his brother's situation was in danger, he did not dare to order the city gates to be opened.

"Take your life!"

Qi Ming roared, and the lance stabbed at the back of the body. If it weren't for this person's command last night, it is possible that the prince has not yet arrived, and he will wipe out all the 5,000 people. However, after the prince arrived, he was not completely annihilated, and hundreds of his subordinates were also lost.

The lance came straight through with a whistling sound. Yi Fu Binggen hurriedly bent down to dodge. A beautiful lance rose from the tip of the lance, and stabbed it like a viper. Yi Fu Binggen had no choice but to turn his horse to fight. The two tigers will start a big battle in front of the Hongji Bridge.

After dozens of rounds, the army arrived one after another.

Li Wei ordered to immediately make simple siege wooden ladders on the mountains and forests on both sides, so the miscellaneous things carried by the government soldiers could not be said to be without benefits. Even in this rapid march, Li Wei asked the soldiers to bring many tools.

Then he said: "Cheer for General Qi Biming." ”

The drums of war rang out, and the head of the city said, "Beat the drums." ”

However, the nature of the two is different, there are more than 10,000 troops behind Qi Ming, and there is only a tall city wall behind Yi Fu Binggen, and he does not even dare to open the city gate. The psychological burden is different, and the courage in battle is also different, and Yi Fu Binggen gradually fell into disadvantage. The two horses alternated, and Qi Ming shouted: "Take your life!" ”

A hand reached over and pulled Yi Fu Binggen from the horse, and Yi Fu Binggen still wanted to resist, and wanted to raise his knife in the air to slash at Qi Biming. Qi Biming lowered his head and got out of the way, this time the fire was big, and he put the big lance on the horse's back, and stretched out his hand to pull his head and twist it fiercely. The bones on the neck are not soft rice, but for these fierce people, it is similar to those who eat soft rice. At a distance, they all seemed to hear the "creaking" sound of bones breaking. Then the head of the dragon turned to the back.

Lifting the corpse of Yi Fu Binggen into the air with one hand, Qi Ming shouted wildly: "Ahhhh ”

The knife of the black tooth Changzhi slashed the Tubo people stupidly, and the twist of Qi Ming was not as cruel as the black tooth Changzhi, but it was also shocking.

The Tubo people and Tuyuhun people at the head of the city don't beat the drum anymore, and it doesn't matter to others, the combat effectiveness of Yifu Binggen can be known. Silent!

"Siege!" Li Wei immediately grabbed the fighter plane and ordered.

The army continued to rush across the Hongji Bridge and rush to the city, because there were a large number of party members, who had not undergone much training, and were a little chaotic, but they could win because there were many people, and they were attacked from both sides. Gunpowder packets flew up from behind and fell into the city again.

Hearing the explosion in Xicheng, Li Jinxing said: "Blow the horn!" ”

When Li Wei heard the sound of the trumpet, he also ordered: "Blow the horn to echo." ”

The horns sounded at the same time on both sides, and the morale was greatly boosted,

The young general Luo Wuquan was the first to rush to the head of the city, holding a horizontal knife, and split a Tubo life in half with a knife, and then let go of a knife and kicked a Tuyuhun on the side down the city. Blocking a knife with a shield again, the horizontal knife stabbed from under the shield, and the whole passed through the *** and came out of the tip of the buttocks. With a flick of the knife, the pain was unbearable, this Tuyuhun *** screamed a few times, fell down, and didn't know whether he was dead or fainted.

Qi Ming also rushed to the head of the city, even more violent, seeing him go up to the city, some Tubo people consciously retreated.

"Take your life!" With a loud shout, the big lance pierced through the two at the same time, and with a lot of strength, the big lance picked it up, and lifted the two corpses into the air and threw them outside the city wall. Another lance.

Li Wei cheered: "What a strong man, Datang has another fierce general." ”

Seeing the surging blood, he rode to the bottom of the city wall, raised his horn bow, and actually asked him to shoot a Tibetan soldier who was fighting fiercely with the Tang soldiers who attacked the city. But he was immediately forcibly dragged down by the guards. The eldest young master, you marched with the army and went deep into the lonely land, which is already amazing, and you can't take any more risks.

It is very rare that Li Wei has really made military exploits after becoming the commander, Yaozhou City shot an enemy, Shancheng shot an enemy, plus this one, a total of three enemies were shot, which was stronger than some soldiers. Some soldiers have been in the army for many years and have not killed a strong enemy. What's even more rare is his hit rate, a total of three arrows, and even Xue Ne's hit rate is not as high as his in the arrows.

Two tiger generals rushed to the city, this sweep swept out a large vacancy, more Tang Dynasty troops took advantage of this gap to climb the city, and gradually the Tuyuhun people and Tubo people on the city head were not supported, when there were hundreds of soldiers on both sides of the city, they all fled to the city for their lives.

The city gate opened, and Li Jinxing said: "Kill!" ”

On the other side, Qi Bi said: "Kill!"

The sun was three poles up, and there was not a single living enemy outside the city. Li Wei did not enter the city, the situation was urgent, and the prisoners of war could not be tolerated, so he was too cruel in the end. Li Jinxing had already walked over in stride, picked up Li Wei, and then laughed, and said affectionately: "Prince, I miss the old minister to death." ”
