Seeing the enemy rushing towards Pusaka Castle like countless ants, many new soldiers were filled with fear in their hearts. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

And Tian Jing knew how to motivate the soldiers beside him at this time, he stood on the city tower and shouted, "The Northern Army is mighty, kill the enemy for my Han!" ”

Then the soldiers behind him shouted, "The Northern Army is mighty, kill the enemy for my Han!" Then the defenders of the East Gate, and then the defenders of the entire Kasaka shouted in unison.

Emotions are contagious, especially in moments when two armies are fighting, and this mood can boost morale and at the same time make people forget their fears.

But the enemy would not slow down the attack because of the shouts, and just when the enemy entered the firing range, Tian Jing ordered the archers to prepare. As Tian Jing gave the order to "release the arrows", the archers took a throwing posture and shot round after round of arrows. Many of the enemies who rushed ahead were killed by the arrows, which wounded the enemy and slowed down their attack.

When the enemy rushed closer and the enemy archers began to fight back, Tian Jing immediately ordered the sword and shield men to quickly make up for it, and all the archers retreated. Only a handful of skilled snipers were left to occupy a favorable position and shoot and wound the enemy's commanders at the rank of marquis. The remaining archers immediately turned into sappers, and when the enemy approached the walls, they threw the rolling wood and thunder stones under the city.

As the enemy army rushed to the city, the enemy's collision car slowly approached the city wall, and as long as the city gate was opened, the defense on the city wall was useless. But Tian Jing did even more desperately this time, because he knew that he was going to abandon the city, and he had already sealed the West Gate, which was most likely to be breached. The crash naturally did not work, and even so, the fire oil that fell from the defenders of the city quickly ignited the crash.

When the enemy saw that the car had been burned in the collision, they immediately began to give way to the city from all sides. And Tian Jing ordered to let the spear hook hand push down the ladder first. If there is really no topping, when the enemy attacks the city, the sword and shield men will stop the enemy in front, and the spearmen will stab in the back.

In this way, the soldiers on both sides finally met together, and at this time only courage could be relied on, and only by outranking others in momentum would the enemy be afraid. And Liu Meng, who was holding a ghost head knife in his hand, was covered in blood, and his killing method of killing one by one did scare off a lot of enemy troops.

The method of defending the city is easy to say, but it is difficult to do, the key is the training and strict discipline of the soldiers. Tian Jing found that the soldiers and horses under Zhang Ji's command did not disappoint him. Today's assault on the other three gates was a feint, with only the west gate being the hardest place. But Tian Jing led a thousand soldiers and horses to resist.

In the evening, Li Daoming Jin withdrew his troops. Today's battle yielded nothing but the dumping of more than 2,000 corpses.

But Tian Jing also knew that today was just a tentative attack, and tomorrow would not be so lucky. In any case, hold Kasaka for three days, and then retreat after the morale of the Li and Guo coalition forces is consumed.

As Tian Jing expected, the attack that began on the third day was the real attack. Li Wei sent 20,000 soldiers and horses to change yesterday's style of feint attack and three key breakthroughs and only attacking the west gate, to pressing on the whole front.

Not only the west gate, but also the north, south, and east gates were tight, and Tian Jing had to transfer the reserve to the city wall early, otherwise he might be lost.

There was no luck in today's battle, and it was completely based on one-on-one strength, and the enemy army attacked the city at least three times and went up to the tower. But he was driven down by Tian Jing and the Northern Army with a knife and a gun.

The casualties on both sides were serious, with the Li and Guo coalition forces reduced their strength by 5,000, and the defenders of Hedong were seriously wounded and killed by more than 2,000 people.

Tian Jing decided that he could no longer defend the city, and if he fought like this for a day, he would not have many people under his command to command. However, the Li and Guo coalition forces still have a large number of men and horses to replace.

Tian Jing believed that Li and Guo would launch a general attack tomorrow, and in order to break the city, it was likely that a feint would be left. The so-called siege must be lacking, so that the enemy may abandon the city. Because Li and Guo's goal is not Pusaka, but Anyi, and this point is likely to be the North Gate. But the enemy may also want to eat all of his troops, and then there will be a large army in ambush outside the north gate.

Tian Jing decided to take advantage of this opportunity to retreat. However, naturally we had to make arrangements first, Tian Jing convened the generals overnight, and after some deployment, the generals received their own orders.

That night, Zang Shunbu led his troops out of the east gate at night, made a gap in the enemy's camp and fled eastward. Since it was late at night, the enemy did not recognize the direction and did not dare to pursue it deeply. After getting rid of the enemy, Zang Shun immediately turned north and rushed to the valley north of Pusaka Castle to ambush. There, when Lu Wen retreated north with the troops, he had already prepared a large number of stones on the mountain. Just enough for tomorrow's retreat.

That night, Li Dao and Guo Yan also received a report that a unit of several hundred people had broken through our camp and escaped. Li Dao and Guo Yan judged that this group of men and horses should have gone to ask for help, and heard that Yang Feng's soldiers and horses were stationed in Hebei, so Tian Jing should send someone to ask for help.

On the morning of the fourth day, Li Dao Guo Yan sent cavalry to strengthen the defense outside the west city, first, to guard against enemy reinforcements. First, if the enemy escapes from Xicheng, the cavalry can intercept it as soon as possible.

Li Wei knew that although he suffered heavy casualties yesterday, the casualties of the Hedong Army were heavier than his own, and if he wanted to break the city, it would be today. Li Dao put all the remaining siege equipment in front of the battle, and the reserves were all transferred out, with only one goal, that is, to increase the intensity of the attack and break the city in one day.

However, Li Dao didn't know that there were only more than 1,000 people under Wu Fang's department defending Shangcheng today, and a bunch of flags were planted, but the defense was much weaker. He didn't need so many people to break Kabasaka Castle at all.

The Liangzhou army obviously felt that today's bows and arrows were much less than yesterday's, maybe the Hedong army had run out of arrows, they thought. Just when the Liangzhou army gradually approached the city wall and prepared to enter the city with siege equipment. The north gate of Pusaka suddenly opened, and without the slightest psychological preparation of the enemy, Tian Jing led the cavalry to rush out of the city gate like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, and killed it.

Immediately afterwards, Li Meng, Wang Fang, and Zhang Bao's soldiers and horses came out one after another, regardless of 3721, killing the enemy with all their might. The forces of the Liangzhou soldiers to prevent the breakthrough today were concentrated in the east city, but they really did not expect that before the siege began, the Hedong army chose the north gate to break through. The Liangzhou soldiers at the north gate were defeated and scattered in all directions.

At this time, the troops attacking the other gates had not yet reacted. Even if you want support, it's too late.

Wu Fang, who was in charge of the defense of the city, led the troops and horses of his headquarters, and only released a few rounds of arrows, and after blocking the enemy for a while, he quickly retreated when he saw the enemy landing in the city, and fought and left.

The Liangzhou army's attack on the west gate only felt that the defense of the Hedong army today seemed to be significantly worse than yesterday's, and they rushed to the eastern city wall without much effort. And the enemy army did not organize an effective defense on the city walls.

The Liangzhou army thought that today was the time to make meritorious contributions, and after a while they rushed into the city. The Hedong Army was beaten by them and retreated. The Liangzhou soldiers who rushed into the city went all the way to open the city gate, and continued to pursue the Hedong rout all the way. How do you know that the east gate is sealed by stones, and it can't be opened at all; The men and horses who pursued the rout all fell into the pit dug in advance in the east gate.

Seeing that it was almost over, Wu Fang asked his soldiers to ride on the war horses that had been prepared long ago and quickly evacuated. And while retreating, he set fire to the city, and there was already something on fire in the city, and it was on fire for a while. The soldiers and horses of Liangzhou who entered the city were afraid that it would be difficult to escape and ascend to heaven.

The Hedong army all rushed out of the north gate, killing the enemy on their backs, but the mobilization of Li Dao's side was not timely. The cavalry was all ambushed outside the east gate, and there was no news of the north gate yet. Without maneuvering power, the reaction speed simply cannot keep up. Moreover, the army has been sent out, so that they can stop the siege and pursue the enemy, how difficult it is. Li Wei had no choice but to gather the team before sending troops to chase the Hedong army and horses, but this was half a beat slower.

Li Wei asked Guo Yan to occupy Puban City, and at the same time took over the grain and grass behind, and he led a large army to pursue the soldiers and horses in Hedong. But he didn't know at the time that the men and horses who had invaded the city had been burned to death.

Li Wei led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to pursue the Hedong army, but he thought that he might not be able to catch up if he was far away. But along the way, it was found that in addition to the cavalry, there were many infantry who could not run fast and fell behind. Since there are people, at least this will not chase the enemy.

Li Dao led his troops to pursue all the way, and ran for more than two hours in one go. He was a little overwhelmed on his horse, let alone the infantry behind him. There were constantly people falling behind on the road, so Li Dao had to rest in place and gather the people by the way.

However, the scouts came back to report that there were enemy troops ten miles ahead, resting in the mountain pass, and it seemed that they could not run. When Li Wei heard this, he was overjoyed, and said in his heart, if he is released, he must destroy Tian Jing's infantry this time, and see how he has thousands of cavalry left to fight against me in the future.

Li Dao gritted his teeth and said to the soldiers and horses behind him, "The enemy army in front can't run anymore, so the sons and daughters will charge me, take the head of the Hedong Army, and reward ten taels of silver; Take the first three levels, and the officers will be promoted to one level. Kill! ”

The already tired soldiers and horses behind him immediately came to their senses, and regardless of the formation, they rushed towards the Hedong Army. After all, the number of people is several times more than that of the Hedong Army, and this head is not enough.

As soon as they chased after them, the Hedong army ran away. Li Wei led the Liangzhou soldiers into the valley unconsciously. Li Dao suddenly felt that this terrain seemed to be a little inappropriate, but when he thought that the enemy was a rout, could he still ambush me.

He ordered to move on, hoping to get out of the valley as soon as possible. Who knew that at this moment, Hedong soldiers and horses suddenly appeared on the mountainside, and rubble and rolling wood fell from the sky, killing and injuring many soldiers, not to mention, but also blocking the back road.

At this moment, the rout who had fled just now was gone, but more than a thousand cavalry were killed from the front. Li Dao was shocked, and on the one hand, he ordered people to resist desperately, and on the other hand, he ordered people to quickly push the big stone behind him away, leaving a way to retreat.

Due to the lack of preparation in advance, the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou suffered heavy losses; Li Dao didn't care whether the others were alive or dead, and when he saw that the road behind him was clear, he immediately fled with his own soldiers. Tian Jing and Wu Fang led more than 1,000 cavalry to kill the enemy and fled in all directions, and were about to chase out of the valley, but they saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance, thinking that the enemy's cavalry had caught up.

Tian Jing knew that the Flying Bear Army and the wolf cavalry were powerful, and no matter which unit it was, it was not easy to provoke, so he took Wu Fang and immediately retreated.
